However, a new category of illness has stepped in to fill that void.
Chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes and obesity are now the biggest killers.
Three out of four Americans have a chronic condition.
And more than half of Americans have two or more chronic conditions.
And the UK is not far behind.
And worryingly, these numbers are still rising.
In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Mark Hyman, MD, a practicing family physician who's been a New York Times bestselling author 15 times over.
He believes that real food is the answer to health and that big food conspires to keep us sick.
Also joining me is Tim Spector, one of the world's top 100 most cited scientists, medical doctor, professor of epidemiology at King's College London, and my scientific co-founder at ZOE.
Together, we explore the concerning rise of chronic diseases in the West and the dark industries that have brought us to this point.
By the end of the episode, you'll understand how the modern world is driving these conditions and what simple changes you can make to protect yourself today.
Mark, thank you for joining me today.
My pleasure.
And Tim, thanks for being here too.
It's great.
So we have a tradition here at Zoe, Mark, where we always start with a quick fire round of questions from our listeners with these very strict rules.
You can say yes or no if we have to, a whole sentence.
Mark, are chronic conditions like heart disease and diabetes increasing in the West?
Yes.
Tim, can lifestyle interventions reduce your risk of these diseases?
