Summary

We finish this series with the legendary Mariella Frostrup. Having smashed through the career glass ceilings so many times - reinventing herself over and over when being told she can’t - her reward is being the cultural presenting icon she is today, and feeling secure in herself as she hits menopause. We’re joined by nutritionist Paul Chamberlain, who says it’s all about balance and that Omega 3 is what we need when it comes to keeping our brains tip-top and sharp.

0:52.8	Check out the Vitamin C and D ranges
0:54.9	to help ward off those seasonal bugs.
0:59.7	Mariel, I realize I was writing a little introduction which you'd be grateful to know that it's already

1:11.8	I don't think we've actually I think I know and you're one of those
1:14.8	people that I feel I've known my whole life and there was an incident which I really vividly
