Ultra processed foods and sugar addiction- what are we doing to ourselves?!

This week Nik is joined by low carb GP Dr David Unwin and clinical psychologist Dr Jen Unwin to discuss the fascinating and worrying topic of sugar addiction in the context of ultra processed foods and the recent BBC documentary with Dr Chris van Tulleken "What are we feeding our kids?" Are we a nation of carb and sugar addicts?
We also have our usual look at the medical news headlines and the week in daytime TV.
