#120 My Information Diet, Microbes and Mood plus stuff about Cheese with Dr Rupy Aujla
29th Sep 2021
My producer was complaining about having to edit 2 scary pods back to back so I thought I’d take a break from the frightening realities and bring some humour and personality back into the pod this week!
Feedback from the 100th episode was really positive and lots of you have asked about me doing some more solo ones .. so here goes!
Today I talk about:
- My information diet including the 1-2 books I read a week, podcasts I listen to and how I keep diversity in my content consumption
- My hack for reading really fast
- A review paper I read about how to use microbe focused treatments to combat depression
- Dairy fat in cheese and why it’s been paradoxically linked to better cardiovascular disease
