About this episode

This episode explores how movement, biological ageing, and protein consumption impact happiness and health.

Can a five-minute walk every hour really make you happier and more productive? Why are scientists warning that today's under-50s may be ageing faster than previous generations? And have we finally reached peak protein? This week, we unpack the latest research on movement, biological ageing and early-onset cancer, explore the Dutch tradition helping raise some of the happiest children in the world, and ask whether the protein obsession has gone too far—from "protein washing" to a global whey shortage.
