is this dilemma about going, should we be sending you home with a shopping list of things to do that you can do to make yourselves feel better and live longer?
Or do we send you home with things that you should try and demand of your politicians and the corporations that shape your health environment?
This is a complex topic.
It is a complex topic.
And I will say...
I think it may, for many of us, get quite emotional.
I think when I think about my health struggles, a lot of it is about self-loathing and about guilt and about recriminations.
So I think we will have to wrestle with this.
This, Zand, is the argument, the dilemma, that I think runs through every single episode of What's Up Docs.
And we are thrilled to be joined by an incredible expert who's going to help us wrestle with it.
We have Professor Devi Sridhar.
She is Chair of Global Public Health at the University of Edinburgh.
She's written a pile of books, including her latest, How Not to Die Too Soon.
She is a world expert on public and global health.
I am very excited.
Please welcome Devi to the stage.
