0:00 Weightloss solutions with Sarak Kennedy and Dr Richard Goldfarb

Weight loss drugs are all over the news at the moment, Ozempic being the most well known. With Wegovy, a similar drug to Ozempic, recently being approved for use in New Zealand it doesn't seem like the talk's going away any time soon. 

In this episode Toni chats with Sarah Kennedy and Dr Richard Goldfarb about why weight loss drugs are becoming so popular, how they actually work, and any potential side effects they may cause. Also, they chat about Calocurb, a natural alternative made from hops grown right here in New Zealand.

25:50 Anal cancer care is disappointing with Dr Mary Birdsall

You may know Dr Mary Birdsall as the fertility queen of New Zealand with her work helping kiwi couples realise their dream of starting a family. But Mary recently went on her own terrifying health journey with her battle with anal cancer.

This experience has helped Mary gain a deeper understanding of what some her own patients have been through, and she's not entirely impressed by the standard of healthcare in New Zealand.

In this episode, Toni and Mary chat about how she discovered she had cancer, the treatment and recovery process, and why Mary thinks it's so important to discuss anal cancer.

1:36:40 7 habits to aging well with Dr Libby

We all strive to age as gracefully as we can. To stay strong, healthy and energetic as the years go on, but that is much easier said than done. Dr Libby has spent her career as a nutritional biochemist and wellness guru helping us answer this question. 

In the episode, Dr Libby gives Toni her 7 habits to help you age well, from the ones we all know like nutrition and exercise, to simple things like stopping to watch the sunset. Plus, why Dr Libby's on a campaign to help people understand the importance of iron.
