Summary

Welcome to a very special episode of The Wellness Scoop, recorded live with our amazing community. In today’s show, we’re asking whether coffee could help you age better, if cutting calories might actually harm your mental health, and why new research says exercise could be more effective than drugs in stopping cancer from returning. We’re also diving into the latest concerns around microplastics and tampons, the truth about step counts, and the role of food in supporting hormones, energy and emotional wellbeing. Plus, we’re taking brilliant questions from our live audience, from fasting and kids’ food language to organic veg and the pressure to be perfect. Whether you were in the room with us for the event or you’re listening for the first time from home, thank you for being part of this incredible community.

0:00.0	This episode of The Wellness Scoop is sponsored by SimProve, the UK's number one gut health supplement.
0:06.1	SimProve is science-backed by over 20 years of research. I love a bit of good research and we know how important it is to have a healthy gut microbiome and Sim-Prove can help you with this.
0:15.6	And that's because every time you take just one 70-m-mile shot of Sim-Prove in the morning, 100% of the bacteria can arrive in your
0:22.7	gut alive and ready to start work. So the bacteria in your shot of Simprove can survive the harsh
0:28.5	acidity of your stomach and reach your lower gut and then thrive by multiplying and feeding your good
0:34.0	bacteria. I've been taking it since 2015 and honestly swear by it. I just love
0:39.4	how easy it is to take every morning and then the choices of flavour make it genuinely a delicious
0:43.8	part of my morning routine. Exactly. Simproof, it's water based, it's free from artificial
0:48.5	colours and it's dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan, making it suitable for anyone. And we found it helpful in certain cases
0:55.6	in the Retrition Clinic over the years. Clients have literally used Simprove for years. So if you want
1:00.6	to try it as well, Simprove are offering you 50% of your first 12-week rolling subscription using the code

1:36.6	And as always, we're here as your hosts. I'm LML.
1:41.6	And I'm Rihanna Lambert. And after a decade in the wellness industry, we know how overwhelming and confusing health advice can be. So that's why we created this podcast to cut through the noise and make healthier living, simple, fun and personal.
1:50.7	Oh, we just love it here, guys. Okay, so we have gone on our little summer break and we would not leave you high and dry. So you guys have all been asking for the live show, will we be
2:01.9	able to share it? You missed out. You wished you could be there. It was amazing. And I think
2:06.2	community is so important to both of us. And we just, as we always say, we so appreciate every
2:11.1	single person who listens to this show who interacts with it. And so we've been working on finding
