TikTok sensation Dr Idz's myth-busting, scientific guide to nutrition and fitness.
Does Diet Coke really cause cancer? Are eggs healthy? Does alcohol stop fat burning? And what steps can you take to avoid obesity, diabetes and heart disease?
In Saturated Facts, TikTok star Dr Idz, an NHS medic with a degree in nutritional research, debunks the myths that often go unchecked on social media and explores the cutting-edge science around some of the most exciting topics in diet and health, including:
- The link between nutrition and our mental wellbeing
- The science behind gut health and how our gut acts as our 'second brain'
- Chrono-nutrition - the timing of when and what we eat
- The benefits and disadvantages of the most popular diets such as keto, fasting and vegan
Dr Idz is on a mission to provide you with scientifically accurate information to make the best decisions about your health, cutting through the noise so you can eat better, feel good and live longer.
