About this episode

Dr Amelia Harry discusses the results of the PERTH Trial on plastic exposure and diet.

Dr Amelia Harry is an experienced Advanced Accredited Practising Dietitian, Accredited Nutritionist, and plastics, diet & human health researcher. In this chat, we discuss the latest publication (in Nature Medicine) that Dr Amelia co-authored on the results of the Plastic Exposure Reduction Transforms Health (PERTH) Trial - which assessed phthalates and bisphenols in humans and what impact a change in diet had. We discuss the methodology, results (it's good news !!) and how you can minimise plastic ingestion in your own life (and why you should).
