Today we’re talking about something we’re all guilty of: food waste. A forgotten yogurt at the back of the fridge, a stale hunk of bread, a bag of dry wilted greens.  They may seem insignificant on their own, but collectively, in every kitchen across the world they add up to a global environmental crisis. So, can we change the way we approach food and help curb this epidemic of waste? I’m joined by Carleigh Bodrug and Dr. Will Bulsiewicz to show us how a few simple changes can lead to a greener home, better health, and even a lower grocery bill. 🌱 Try our new plant based wholefood supplement - Daily30+ *Naturally high in copper which contributes to normal energy yielding metabolism and the normal function of the immune system 📚Books by our ZOE Scientists The Food For Life Cookbook Every Body Should Know This by Dr Federica Amati Food For Life by Prof. Tim Spector Ferment by Prof. Tim Spector Free resources from ZOE Live Healthier: Top 10 Tips From ZOE Science & Nutrition Gut Guide - For a Healthier Microbiome in Weeks  Better Breakfast Guide Have feedback or a topic you'd like us to cover?
