Hello and welcome to Zoe Recap, where each week we find the best bits from one of our podcast episodes to help you improve your health.

On this podcast, we often talk about things that you can do to improve your diet.

However, you're not the only person who has an impact on your health.

The truth is that our food system, from government policy to supermarket placement, has a profound influence on what we eat, how we eat, and ultimately how healthy we all are.

So what steps can we take to improve not just our own health, but the health of society as a whole?

Today, I'm joined by Professor Brian Elbell and Professor Tim Spector to explore the forces shaping our food system and the changes that could benefit our collective well-being.

So maybe we could just start off by explaining what is population health and how does it impact the individual?

And Tim, from your perspective, what's the biggest threat to our dietary health today?

And is there one particular class of food that you're worrying about?

And Brian, in your research, how are you seeing that food in general and I guess ultra-processed food in particular is shaping our long-term health?

What do you see?

And so if you were going to look at that question, so I think Tim's answer when he looks at this is that it's sort of these ultra processed foods are the biggest issue.

Would you have had the same answer or would you have said something different?
