Really interesting documentary that played on our SBS station this week. Found a copy on Youtube that I thought people might find interesting. It spends a lot of time on Tim Spector's work "The Diet Myth".

Hi Indy51

I caught that as well. It was really interesting and I thought worth chasing up a little more when I get some time

Thank you @Indy51 - fascinating!

It's a concern about antibiotic-fed meat and it's implications of it on the health of the gut - naively this is not something that had occurred to me. I buy the best quality meat I can afford, though, and as a child all our animal products were homegrown and not fed antibiotics, but I'm going to pay more attention to how and what I eat now for the sake of my gut biome.
