THE NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

Join Julia Bradbury as she travels the world to uncover the ultimate health and wellness hacks to help you take charge of your health for good.

The human body is a marvel of biological engineering that constantly renews itself, and we always seem to be on the hunt for ways to improve it, physically and emotionally. But with so many new health trends on the rise, how do we know what really works?

In Hack Yourself Healthy, TV presenter and author Julia Bradbury cuts through the noise to embark on a rigorous journey to reclaim her health following her own breast cancer diagnosis. Her quest in this book is to discover whether she can go from a cancer diagnosis to being the fittest and healthiest she's ever been. Travelling across the world to explore different cultural approaches, from India to Antarctica, from Cornwall to Yorkshire, Julia talks with world-renowned experts as she volunteers as a 'Crash Test Mummy' to test the latest in biohacking, screening and testing. Follow her as she embraces Europe's coldest cryotherapy chamber and investigates the world's oldest medical system, Ayurveda, in the Himalayas.

Drawing from research, interviews with global thought leaders and personal experiments, Julia offers practical tips and accessible science-based strategies to optimise every aspect of your health and wellbeing. She uncovers why saunas can be so beneficial, how sugar affects us on a cellular level, what types of exercise we should be doing every week (and how much of it), if drinking alcohol has benefits, which foods can help us live a more vibrant life, and why planetary health and human health are so intrinsically linked.

You'll also discover how to hack your nutrition and hormonal health, utilise sleep science and why the future of medicine is an integrative whole-person approach. As a long time 'outdoor evangelist' Julia continues to explore the rejuvenating power of nature (and even how it can mimic science). Using this ultimate health blueprint, you can join Julia on her quest to 'make the best of the rest' and curate your own transformative health journey at home and in nature.

Hack Yourself Healthy will show you that true happiness isn't just about living longer - it's about living better.
