Can You Reverse an Unhealthy Childhood? Iron 101 & Fibre Myths

Can we undo the effects of an unhealthy childhood diet? What's the best way to increase iron levels, particularly during pregnancy? And are fibre powders and resistant starch really worth the hype?

This week, we discuss the powerful relationship between stress, nutrition and hormone health, explore the growing fascination with fibre supplements and resistant starch, and ask whether it's ever too late to change the way we eat. Plus, we answer your questions on perfectionism, introversion and the pressure to get everything right as parents.
