This week we answer your questions on health anxiety, food scanner apps and the rise of fear-based wellness advice online. We unpack the controversy around food scanning apps and scoring systems, alongside the science of fermented foods, gut health and whether kefir is really worth the hype.

Plus, we talk summer BBQ recipes, joint health, the best time to eat, and the small everyday habits that actually matter for long-term wellbeing.
