Calorie deficits and macros seem like the latest buzz in the world of fitness. Essentially it's just dieting and eating well. But looking at it differently, it's a balancing act of eating less, yet eating better.

In the age of Social Media, that's drinking more protein shakes and smoothies, eating more steaks, chicken, eggs and cutting carbs.

That's a bit of a shift from the days body-builders bulking up on tuna and rice, or chicken and broccoli - but the focus on keeping up protein is still relevant today.

Joining Tim Beveridge to unpack the shifting landscape of diets: Dietician and Head Of Nutrition for Beef + Lamb, Julie Sekula.

Julia Sekula: Too much of one thing is never good

The workplace is often dynamic - young people make their way in, technology change how things are done, new talent shift the team culture, and dress codes can differ from strict to casual.

With the rise of remote and hybrid-jobs these days, what do employers and employees need to see eye-to-eye on? How much flexibility should both sides expect, and where can they compromise?

And with people these days staying for a shorter time with their employer, before finding another job, how can they secure the best reference?

National says if they're re-elected, they'll end screen and individual-device use in ECE, tightly limit screen time in Years 1 to 3, and introduce age-appropriate limits for older primary students.

They say they'll introduce a School Start Check at ECE before children transition to primary school, introduce clearer developmental milestones throughout ECE and report this progress to parents.

This will supposedly identify areas where children may need additional support and address that through the Early Intervention Service.

National Party Spokesperson for Education, Erica Stanford talks to Tim Beveridge about why they're aiming for these changes.

It seems everyone has an idea for supermarket reform 

The Greens have proposed a publicly-owned "KiwiMart", National's proposed separating Foodstuffs ie Pak'nSave and New World into separate retailers.

Today, Labour's proposed Woolworths and Foodstuffs to run their wholesale supply independently from their retail stores - they want to grant Kiwi grocers the right to buy their stock from any wholesaler - free small grocers from their restraints of trade, like anti-competitive arrangements - and ban junk fees charged to suppliers. 

But what do those changes mean, and why is it better than what other parties are offering?

Party Leader Chris Hipkins talks to Tim Beveridge to discuss their plans
