1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: This is the Fits End with Kate Richie podcast. We

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: want to pay tribute to celebrity doctor and I would

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: say friend of the show. I think he joined us

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: maybe five times or so over the years, doctor Michael Moseley,

5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: who has passed away unfortunately unfortunately, as you may have

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: read over the weekend, this has been a really really

7
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,319
Speaker 1: scary time for everyone that follows him, but importantly his

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: family and friends in not knowing the whereabouts as it

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 1: was before the body was found over the weekend.

10
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 2: I just know this just fascinates me, this story that

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: a man and remember how glued we were to him him.

12
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 2: We've had him in here so many times, and it's

13
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 2: about you know, he's dedicated his whole life to longevity

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: and staying healthy. He changed your life. I mean, you're

15
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 2: on the five two for a while, and yeah, even

16
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: fasting that minor fasting that people were doing around the world,

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: and how good that was for you.

18
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,639
Speaker 1: He changed so many lives and he brought so much

19
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: eduction to people, and he continued to develop. I mean

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 1: I've been sitting there with his book on my desk,

21
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: which was one of his most recent I think there's

22
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: still one more to come. Out, which no doubt will

23
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: become a tribute to Michael Moseley. But four Weeks Still

24
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: Better Sleep is one of the recent books he had,

25
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: But the Five to the Fast eight hundred, they're all

26
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: you know, gut health was a big one that he

27
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 1: looked into as well. But you know, he really did

28
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: change so many, so many lives, and this has been

29
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: a great reminder of just how fragile life actually is. Tommy,

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: we were reading and I think Ash mentioned the news.

31
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: They're now putting it down to heat exhaustion.

32
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, sting, he sat down and lost consciousness is what

33
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 3: they're saying this morning after.

34
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: But there was a fall involved.

35
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a fall near that resort where he

36
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 3: was found, so I think they have CCTV footage of

37
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 3: him falling. But then he sort of stumbled down to

38
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 3: the side of that resort and he was so close

39
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: to being found.

40
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: He was one hundred means so he was one hundred

41
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 2: meters from the ocean, which would have cooled his body down.

42
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 2: I mean heat exhaustion. I've had that before, and you're delirious,

43
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 2: you don't know what you're doing. This is the thing.

44
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 2: And whether he would have jumped into the water and

45
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: knew what was happening or you just don't know about.

46
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: But the other thing as well we talk about is

47
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 2: a man who studied so much about you know, staying

48
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: healthy and longer and stuff like that, he didn't take

49
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: his phone with him on the walk. And it's little

50
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: things like this. It's just I mean, it was extremely

51
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 2: unlucky what happened. But I just for a man who

52
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 2: you would think Michael Moseley would live to one hundred

53
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: and twenty.

54
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: You would, naturally because of all the study and all

55
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: the great medical work that he's done as a doctor

56
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: and also in the science field, but also just for

57
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: the average man and an average person that's looking to

58
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: better their life and be a healthy version of who

59
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: they are. So you would suggest that at some stage

60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: if there was a fall involved, he has hit his

61
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: head or there's some injury to.

62
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 3: His heat exhaustion.

63
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: He had his umbrella with him which you saw, which

64
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: was heat protection he took for the walk. But the

65
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: walk was meant to be twenty minutes to half an hour.

66
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but see if you once you start going, it's

67
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: hard to and he was on a cliff.

68
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: You could see there was a lot of rocks.

69
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: He got to the fence line and he was one

70
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 2: hundred meters from the water. But that your body starts

71
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 2: to shut down, and once you lose consciousness and you're

72
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: in that sun forty degrees heat.

73
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: It's just unbelievably sad. It's unbelievably tragic To pay tribute, though,

74
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: and we loved obviously having him as a guest on

75
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: the show because he was so informative and why is

76
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: the entire time we thought we'd play a little bit

77
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: of our last chat with Michael Mosley, doctor Michael Moseley,

78
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: and he's talking about the experiments that he did, and

79
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: this was just part of the great human he was.

80
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: You don't just study this, you actually do it yourself, doc,

81
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: don't you You put on ten to fifteen kire loos and

82
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 2: then you try to take it off with this diet.

83
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 4: I did the original reason why I invented five two

84
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 4: dits because I discovered seven years ago that I was

85
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 4: a type two diabetic, yes right, and my dad had

86
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 4: died complications of it. So that's when I'd never heard

87
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 4: of intimate fasting. And I was a doctor who had obviously,

88
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: like every other doctor, had learned nothing about nutrition at

89
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 4: medical school.

90
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 3: So I went off and I.

91
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 4: Found out about it and invented five to diet. I

92
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 4: lost ten kilos, bloodshains went back to normals perfect stayed there.

93
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 4: But to write the new book, which is The Fast

94
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 4: eight hundred, I'm advocating at the beginning that you do

95
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 4: a rapid weight loss diet. At the beginning, that's eight

96
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 4: hundred calories for up to eight weeks. Now, in the

97
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 4: clinical studies they found average weight loss of fourteen kilos

98
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 4: doing that approach. Okay, so this is for people who

99
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: have quite a lot of weight to shift, or who

100
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 4: have type two diabetes, or who have pre diabetes, or

101
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 4: perhaps have problems there you know, high cholesterol scores.

102
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 3: Yes, so they have a.

103
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 4: Reason why they want to shift off quite a lot

104
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 4: of weight pretty fast. And again what surprising is the

105
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 4: studies show the faster you lose it, the more likely

106
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 4: you are to keep it off long term. And that's

107
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 4: kind of surprising. We're always told slow and steady, yes,

108
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 4: and yet there have been a series of really big studies.

109
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: There was one in the UK recently who did rapid

110
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 4: weight loss eight hundred carries lost and kept off ten

111
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 4: kilos over a year. Whereas those doing the stow and

112
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 4: stead he lost one kilo. I love life hacks, you know,

113
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: that's kind of what I am. Absolutely love exploring the

114
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 4: science a bit. That's why I loved I really really

115
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 4: enjoyed researching writing Clever Guts because it is just your

116
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 4: gut is so interesting, and the things that go on

117
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: down there. It really is an undiscovered planet filled with

118
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 4: the world's weirdest creatures.

119
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful he said, isn't it. And it brings

120
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: it brang a lot of medical knowledge and understanding of

121
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: the human body to our ears and to our understanding.

122
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: So we celebrate Michael Mosley and his tragic passing, and

123
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: we think of his friends and of course his family

124
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: at this time. Seen Whippa with Kate Ritchie is a
