Summary

Confirmed cases of coronavirus have now spanned the globe, and figures of new cases are increasing each day. COVID-19 has spiralled out of our control, leaving countries across the globe in a state of emergency and doctors and nurses overstretched. At present, it is expected that the coronavirus pandemic could affect the UK well into 2021 and may lead to 7.9 million people being hospitalised, adding even more strain on health services and with knock on effects on the economy. There are simple measures that each and everyone of us can do to help minimise the spread of coronavirus, as our very actions can help reduce the chances of us catching it and in turn spreading the virus. This week's Food For Thought sees NHS Dr Joshua Wolrich discuss the evolving advice and spread of misinformation in these uncertain times.

discovered that identical twins can have completely different responses to the same food.

0:26.9

And this is something we talk about with our clients all the time in the clinic.

0:29.8

And that means that both twins could eat a sugary muffin and you know,

0:33.6

they would have a complete different response, which is fascinating.

0:36.2

And one could feel great and the other could feel that slump and the increased hunger due to

0:41.2

their different blood sugar responses. So, here we go.

0:44.5

Zoe's research found that the change in blood sugar and blood fat levels

0:48.8

can vary 10 fold from person to person. Then on top of that, identical twins only share a quarter

0:54.8

of their gut bugs, despite being genetically identical. So, basically, we're all different,

1:00.1

which is what we talk about all the time in the podcast, we're unique in how we respond to food

and how we process what we eat. This solidifies what we've always believed.
