    Try ZOE’s NEW app and gut health test: ZOE.com Winter is almost here! Temperatures are dropping, clouds are descending, and the clocks have changed. Many of you might be worrying that the Winter Blues are on their way, but perhaps they don’t need to be? Perhaps we can work with our natural, biological rhythms to fend off this blue phase. Today, we’re joined by Prof. Debra Skene, Section Lead of Chronobiology at the University of Surrey and a global authority on circadian rhythms. With over 190 research publications, she’s spent 25 years studying how light and timing affect sleep, mood, and metabolic health. After listening to this episode, you’ll be armed with solid advice that will help you weather winter with a smile, maintaining good health and good mood until the warmth returns. 00:15 The surprising link between your body clock and major diseases 01:25 Quick-fire round: Body clocks, weight gain, and meal timing 03:25 You have a 'master clock' ticking in your brain 10:05 What is 'gut lag'? 11:40 Why light is the most reliable signal for your body (it's not weather) 14:45 Light's 'non-visual' effects: How light affects your mood and performance 16:30 What studies on blind people reveal about our internal clocks 18:50 The shocking health risks of night shift work 21:05 Why you are 'definitely eating at the wrong time' 22:30 The same meal at midnight gives you higher blood fats 25:20 Why living in a cave for a month is 'pretty healthy' 26:20 Are you a 'lark' or an 'owl'?

    Tired and hungry? How the wrong breakfast will ruin your day | Prof. Benjamin Gardner & Professor Tim Spector

    Get 6+ FREE breakfast recipes from nutrition experts: https://zoe.com/breakfastguide Why do so many of us eat a "healthy" breakfast like cereal or muesli, only to feel hungry, tired, and foggy by 11 AM? And why is it so hard to break this routine, even when we know it’s not working? In this episode, Jonathan Wolf speaks to Professor Ben Gardner, a leading expert in habit psychology, and Professor Tim Spector, a world-leading scientist in nutrition and gut health. They explore the science behind why our breakfast routines are broken, how they set us up for a daily blood sugar rollercoaster, and what to do to fix things. Tim breaks down the latest science on common breakfast foods, explaining why most cereals, muesli, fruit juices, and "high-protein" options are failing us, leading to energy dips and mood changes. Ben explains the psychology of why we're stuck. He reveals why bad habits run on autopilot, why our environment is more powerful than our willpower, and busts the persistent "21-day" myth, explaining how long it really takes to form a new habit. Timecodes: 00:00 Introduction 01:25 Does building a new habit take 21 days? 02:05 Is breakfast the most important meal of the day? 04:05 The 'healthy' breakfast that causes an 11 AM energy dip 05:15 How your breakfast creates a blood sugar rollercoaster 07:15 Can today's breakfast affect tomorrow's hunger? 08:05 The 'healthy' cereal trap: "Only if you're a shareholder of Kellogg's" 10:10 What is a 'habit' in psychology? (It's not what you think) 11:15 The 'autopilot' breakfast: Making food without realizing 13:50 The stale popcorn experiment: Why you eat food you don't even like 16:30 The secret to change: Identify your environmental triggers 18:30 The 'fresh start effect': Why Monday is a powerful day to change 20:40 The "I've already failed today" mindset (and why it's wrong) 22:30 What are 'keystone habits'? 25:45 The 3 ways to break a bad habit (it's not just willpower) 28:00 How to use breakfast as your 'first win' of the day 29:40 Tim Spector's ideal breakfast to avoid a sugar crash 32:30 The 'high protein' cereal lie: "Most of them are rubbish" 33:30 Is Marmite actually healthy? 34:55 Tim's 3 simple principles for a healthy breakfast 38:20 The 21-day myth busted: How long it really takes to form a habit 40:50 What is 'habit stacking'? 41:55 Does missing one day ruin your new habit? 42:35 How to swap your cereal habit (Ben's practical plan) 45:00 How long until a new habit feels 'automatic'? 46:00 A 3-step practical guide to change your breakfast habit

    The #1 Dementia risk factor nobody talks about, and what to do

    Get your free 5-step plan for hearing loss diagnosis and treatment: click here Hearing loss affects 1 in 5 people globally, increases the risk of developing dementia, and has no cure. An astonishing half a billion people have hearing loss, which impacts their ability to communicate and connect with others. Hearing loss cases are increasing fast, especially among younger people. For many, hearing aids and cochlear implants can be life-changing, but they can’t help everyone. But there is hope: Scientists around the world have been working tirelessly to develop NEW treatments for hearing loss. In this episode, Jonathan speaks to Dr. Marcelo Rivolta, a professor of sensory stem cell biology at Sheffield University. He’s on the cusp of a major breakthrough that could mean hearing loss becomes a thing of the past. What you’ll learn: Why hearing loss is becoming more common The shocking link between hearing loss and a 500% increased risk of dementia How modern headphones and loud concerts cause permanent, irreversible damage Why hearing loss can be more isolating than blindness The simple ways you can protect your hearing today How current technologies like hearing aids and cochlear implants work About the groundbreaking new science that could cure deafness using stem cells About Marcelo Rivolta Marcelo Rivolta is a Professor of Sensory Stem Cell Biology at the University of Sheffield. For over two decades, his research has focused on the use of human stem cells for the understanding and treatment of hearing loss. His lab was the first to demonstrate that it was possible to create both auditory hair cells and neurons from stem cells, and his pioneering work is now moving towards clinical trials in humans. Timecodes: 00:00 Introduction 00:26 Does hearing loss only affect older adults? 03:37 Is permanent hearing loss reversible? 06:03 At what volume do headphones start to cause hearing loss? 08:26 Why hearing loss is more isolating than blindness 09:41 The shocking link between hearing loss and dementia 12:00 Can hearing aids reduce your dementia risk? 13:13 How do we hear? A simple explanation 15:15 Why is your microphone just like your ear? 18:07 What goes wrong in your ear to cause hearing loss? 19:20 The cells in your body you’re born with that have to last a lifetime 20:51 Why does loud noise cause irreversible damage? 23:15 Do hearing aids solve hearing loss for everybody? 24:08 The difference between a hearing aid and a cochlear implant 26:20 Is the hearing from a cochlear implant natural? 32:25 Can we find a cure for hearing loss? 34:15 Using stem cells to create new hearing cells 37:32 Can we reverse deafness? Groundbreaking study in animals 38:45 When will a cure for hearing loss be available? 42:25 What is auditory neuropathy? 45:06 What is tinnitus and could this research cure it? 46:46 Top tips to protect your hearing 50:03 Jonathan's summary Information about the Rincell-1 clinical trial, such as patient eligibility and other related aspects, is available at https://www.rinri-therapeutics.com/our-clinical-research/#rincell For further details, please contact enquiries@rinri-therapeutics.com Episode transcripts are available here: https://zoe.com/learn/category/podcast
