What does the way politicians eat on the campaign trail say about them, if anything? Our programme from the last US election investigates. @SheilaDillon bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000nt…

Is food doing our heads in?
The brain is our hungriest organ, yet we rarely think about how what we eat affects it.
It’s the topic today recorded @afoodfestival - from childhood into later life, policy & what individuals can do.
Join us @BBCRadio4 at 11am.

Today if you’re at @afoodfestival join us at The Dome tent at 2pm for a live recording on how food can do your head in! We have an amazing line up: Heston Blumenthal, @FoodAndPsych @drallyjaffee and headteacher Natalie Hackett who is part of @SAfoodforlife

So looking forward to this …. how food is part cause of our ‘mental health crisis’. How good food is part of recovery. How to seduce junk food addicted children into loving good food. And what having special mental abilities does to your relationship to what/ how you cook & eat!
@BBCFoodProg presenter @SheilaDillon – guest debate lineup Sat 21 Sept #aff2024 @Octopus_Books Dome. Subject: Link between diet & brain/mental health. Kimberley Wilson, @drallyjaffee Leicestershire headteacher Natalie Hackett, and Heston Blumenthal:

Do you eat more than you should and why? That's our question on the #youandyours phone-in this lunchtime. It's a follow up from the excellent @BBCFoodProg exploring the concept of food addiction @SheilaDillon @Nat_Donovan
#youandyours Radio 4 tomorrow 12-1pm will be talking about UPF and overeating join us @wrobinson101

Alcohol-free beer now makes up 15% of total sales at Bristol-based brewer @WiperAndTrue
The brand's co-founder Michael Wiper believes this figure could soon rise to as much as 50%.

‘Food Addiction’? A 3rd helping of spring cabbage? Or the biscuits you only wanted 2 of & are now all gone? What @smithbarryc calls “advanced designed food…very very clever stuff” @drjenunwin @Overeaters_OA @DoctorChrisVT @MichaelMossC @DrSPThompson @maggieeastfire @BBCFoodProg
Natalie Donovan retweeted
Today we’re asking, can food really be addictive? If so, which foods are most problematic? A group of doctors want Ultra-Processed food addiction to be recognised officially. Why? Listen to find out. We are on @BBCRadio4 at 11am and on @bbcsounds bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0021xv…

As the world watches one woman aim for the top of US politics we consider what it takes female chefs to reach the top in fine dining kitchens. How does one become Michelin rated when the odds are stacked against your gender?
11am on @bbcradio4 w/ @SheilaDillon @HeleneDarroze
Turned the shower to cold again this morning and will have some oily fish for lunch - with the intention of eating slowly.. 🙂

“He makes you think I can do that! He fills me with hope, and the sense this would actually enrich my life, so why not do it?”
For #justonethingday @SheilaDillon considers the ways Dr Michael Mosley helped us see how vital good food is for a better life:
