Speaker 1: health and wellness world this week.

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 2: Holly, Hello, Hello, how are you.

9
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 3: I'm feeling healthy?

10
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 2: Thank god, not actually the last couple of weeks.

11
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: It's funny you think you're healthy and then well, I

12
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: think I'm pretty healthy, and then you actually one hundred

13
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: percent focus on health.

14
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: So cook everything.

15
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: At home, make sure bade our sleep. I'm getting back

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: into EXAs and I feel super healthy.

17
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: Wow, And you're like, I am, woman, I am.

18
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: So back over the moon.

19
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: That's great. Well, my healthy revelation of this week is

20
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: that I've decided the reason I'm so dehydrated at the

21
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: moment is because I haven't been having iced coffee. I've

22
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: been having regular, like hot coffee. I know there's no

23
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: science behind this, so I used to drink I drink

24
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 2: it like every day through summer. Yeah, and I've decided

25
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: that that extra bit of water and ice is maybe

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 2: what's been keeping me more hydrated than usual. This is

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 2: it's pseudo scienceless water. No, I don't drink much water,

28
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: but I think that the iced coffees have been keeping

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 2: me afloat, and now I'm not having them.

30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: We better go back to it.

31
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 2: I have, I got one this morning. I think that's

32
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 2: my health tips for everyone for the week.

33
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: Coffees. Yeah, bring back summer exactly. What's your health story

34
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 3: of the week?

35
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 2: My topic for the week. It's a story by contributor

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: Ashley Low and the headline is a definitive guide to

37
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: the health test you should have at every age and stage.

38
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:53,559
Speaker 3: I love this one.

39
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: It's great. It is such such a good thank you,

40
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: such a good story. So for most of us, it's

41
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 2: not often until we experience some sort of like health scare,

42
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: whether that's yourself or it's someone else in your family,

43
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 2: that we give much thought to our ongoing health. And

44
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 2: I think we know that certain screenings and tests that

45
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 2: we know we should get them, but they're quite a

46
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: nebulous concept until you get a prompt from the health

47
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: department or until something goes wrong. So this story is

48
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: basically your one stop shop. It atlines every health test

49
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: and screening you should have in your radar for every

50
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: decade of your life. When to get them, how often

51
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: you need to go back, which ones you need to

52
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: like you know self, motivate to go and get, and

53
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: which ones you'll get reminders for. It's amazing, it's a

54
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: great story. Can you give us a few yes. So,

55
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: some of the check ins that you should do at

56
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: every age include skin checks, So you should see your

57
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: GP at least once a year for a full skin

58
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: check or six months if you have a family history

59
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: or a higher risk. Dental checks every six month to

60
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 2: a year, which is bad news for people like me

61
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 2: who absolutely despise the dentist. And then in your health checks,

62
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: you should do once a year just to check in

63
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 2: on like wait, blood pressure, things like that. And then

64
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: for example, in your thirties and forties, you should start

65
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: checking in on heart disease and cholesterol, type two diabetes,

66
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 2: and breast cancer.

67
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: That's just a tay breast.

68
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 2: Always check your breast and actually it totally it is.

69
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: And she gives a really good tip on the breast

70
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 2: checks as well, is that you should get into the

71
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: habit of checking every time you have your period, just

72
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: as like a monthly calendar, almost reminding you of when

73
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: to do it.

74
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: So I actually got to chick just after my period

75
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: because I find they're less lumpy. Oh yeah, the week

76
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: after that's good.

77
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: I mean the shower. I do it once over.

78
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: It's a special treat for finishing your period, and then

79
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: you get to check your boobs. Go for it.

80
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 3: If that's what's going to Yeah, you remember.

81
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: Whatever it is. But it's a great piece. It's definitely

82
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 2: one that I would like bookmark personally, just as a

83
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: reminder for what you should have on your calendar and

84
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: on your radar.

85
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: And because often they are the one thing we just

86
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: let go so much else going on, and we you know,

87
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: we need to get to Pilate's, and we need to

88
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: buy a new pair of running shoes, and we forget

89
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: that we need to check out risks exactly.

90
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: And with the national screening programs, then you get reminders

91
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: for those ones from the Health Department. But there are

92
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 2: so many things that you don't get reminderus for and

93
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 2: unless you have it on your radar, they just fall

94
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 2: off the list. Yeah.

95
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I actually have checks I have. I've put some

96
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: of them into my diary. Yeah, it's good so that

97
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: I remember.

98
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: I have a friend and every year on her birthday

99
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 2: she gets perhaps mere, which frankly sounds like my idea

100
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: of hell, but it's a good way to remember.

101
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: Well, I want to talk today about a well it

102
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: was a new it's called a meta analysis, and I'll

103
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: explain what that is in a second. But the headline

104
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: of this study got me because I want to know

105
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: we'll drinking your fruit and vich actually give you the

106
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: same nutritional punch as eating it.

107
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 2: The ongoing question it is to juice or not to juice?

108
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 2: And what type of juice cold pressed or I don't know?

109
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: Well I don't have an answer for that.

110
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: Okay, Well come back to that one, okay, But we do.

111
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: Know that ninety five percent of Australian struggle to eat

112
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: their fruit and veg each day, and as adults, we

113
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: should aim for five servings of veggies and two servings

114
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: of fruit each day. So perhaps that thing that we've

115
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,239
Speaker 1: always wondered is how much does juice count to this quota?

116
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 3: Well, this was interesting.

117
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: It's a recent umbrella review of meta analysis.

118
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 3: Now, this is a type of research that.

119
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: Combines data for multiple studies of multiple outcomes into one paper.

120
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: So it's a super study. It's what I'm here, super

121
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: size study.

122
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: So it looked at the relationship between one hundred percent

123
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: juice and a range of health outcomes. Now, basically, the

124
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: thing it found is that most of the evidence showed

125
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 1: juice has a neutral impact on health, meaning no or

126
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: a positive one. Okay, yes, yes, so pure one hundred

127
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: percent juice was linked to improve heart health and inflammatory markers,

128
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: wasn't clearly linked to weight gain, multiple cancer types, or metabolic.

129
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 3: Markers such as blood sugar levels.

130
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: So positive even nothing or good yeah, one hundred percent

131
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: cheese Okay, we're talking no sugar here, Okay, just juicing

132
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: in a juicer.

133
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 3: Now.

134
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: One of the research is doctor Emma Beckett. She's from

135
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: UNSW in Sydney. She's also been on the podcast. She's

136
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: actually got a great book coming out that I did

137
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: a little review off in August. She actually did this

138
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: study or was she friend of one of the many

139
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: friend of the poet? Yeah, yeah, And she wrote in

140
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: the conversation she wrote up about the study, and she

141
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: also wrote some words of wisdom which I want to

142
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: share with you because I thought they were valuable And

143
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 1: basically smooths and juices aren't a silver bullet, and there

144
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: is no evidence that they work as a cleanse or detox.

145
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 1: But with societies low levels of fruit and vegetable eating,

146
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: having the option to access nutrients and bioactives is in

147
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: a cheap and easy and tasty way shouldn't be discouraged.

148
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: So she's saying, drink your juice because we all need

149
00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: to get.

150
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: More fruit and vega in our diet.

151
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: Absolutely juice helps, but it will never replace the original thing.

152
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a good reminder, I think. So have your

153
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 2: juice if you can't get it in other ways, but

154
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 2: try to get it in other ways. Yeah, exactly, Still

155
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: have your broccoli with dinner. But if it.

156
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: Fits into the context of your diet and your life,

157
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: juice it perfect. And the other thing is you do

158
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: get different nutrients through often. You know, for example, I

159
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: put keyway through my breakfast this morning, and I cut

160
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: off the skin. I throw in the blender, still got

161
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: the skin on it, clever, So do get more nutrients.

162
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: Okay sometimes in that respect.

163
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 2: There you go hot tips flips.

164
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: Anyway, just quickly before we go, give us a quick

165
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: rundown of the most clique story.

166
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: Of the week. The most clicked story this week was

167
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 2: the best late night snacks according to a dietitian. This

168
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: one was written by dietitian Susie Burrel, who writes a

169
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 2: lot of our nutrition content is also a friend the

170
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 2: friend of the pod Susie Burrow. Yeah, when you're choosing

171
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 2: a late night snack, you want to avoid stimulants like sugar, caffeine,

172
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: and dense carbs because at night is when your hormones

173
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 2: are working to fuel and repair your body rather than

174
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: burning energy, and especially because you're lying like fully sedentary

175
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: and stationary for hopefully eight hours, so you should aim

176
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 2: for snacks that have high protein in them, some of

177
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: which include cheese and whole grain crackers, plain yogurt with fruit,

178
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: and popcorn.

179
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 3: No ice cream.

180
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 2: It's probably a no on the ice cream and the chocolate,

181
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 2: but as we say, moderation is key. Balance the people,

182
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: the Ish people, we love them, and personally, as a

183
