Today’s guest is an ex-professional triathlete & now Professor of Public Health, who has published hundreds of articles and several bestselling books. He is shaking up the world of nutrition with his evidence-based approach and for me, is the go to guy when discussing metabolic health. He’s also a mate of mine and author of a quite brilliant blog.

Professor Grant Schofield runs the Human Potential Centre at Auckland University of Technology, where his research crosses disciplines such as psychology, biology, medicine, public health, and productivity management. The cornerstones are nutrition, exercise, sleep, neuroscience, psychology and wellbeing and we get into some of these things in this podcast. The main topics of discussion are:

·      Raising free-range kids – straight off the bat

·      Grant’s reflections on his ironman past and how it impacted his health: 11:07

·      Metabolic benefits of low carb eating: 15:22

·      The Good, the bad & the ugly of exercise 21:25

·      Cardio, strength training, autophagy, telomeres and longevity 25:22
