Organised Beef Organs Protein Powder, £89 https://organised.co/pages/organised - Happy gut, happy hormones. We explore the bi-directional gut-hormone connection, why food intolerances are rarely about the food itself, why fart walks are trending, the limits of the Low Fodmap diet, bottom pain, hypnotherapy for IBS and the real reason why you might have itchy skin. Plus, the bizarre world of parasite cleanses and the woman who made a killing selling her farts in jars.
- Do you really need to detox? Isn’t that what your liver and kidneys are for? With so many more toxins in our lives these days, our liver especially needs extra help. But what’s the best way to go about it? We take down some social media detox myths – juice cleanses get a bit fat no from Pippa – and sing the praises of daily liver-loving cruciferous veg. Should you you sweat out toxins? And are cold plunges for women are really a good thing? Listen in, you might be surprised!
We hope you enjoy listening on Apple, Spotify and YouTube – wherever you get your podcasts.

Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@victoriawoodhallyoga - We catch up mid way through Victoria’s annual fasting stay at the Buchinger Wilhelm clinic in Germany. It’s art spa part integrative medical fasting centre – it’s her third time there, but she’s not there for weight loss as there’s so much more to fasting. Victoria describes the longevity, immune system, skin, liver, muscle and gut health benefits, as well as the profound mental rest she experiences during a nine-day fast, And there’s plenty of nitty gritty: what can you eat (if anything) what do you do all day? Do you HAVE to have the enemas, why do your armpits smell more? How to survive the Day 3 Slump. Do you get ‘fasting flu’? And how much nakedness is there in the saunas?
We look at fasting at home for women – why Pippa’s not a fan of water fasting, and what’s the most sustainable way for women to get the benefits of fasting while keeping our hormones balanced.
Victoria’s stay was gifted for review. Prices start art around 430 Euros per night https://www.buchinger-wilhelmi.com/en/ See the Fasting’ highlight on her Instagram for more.

is a continuous blood pressure monitor the new wearable for 2026?
The weight loss jab conversation is taking a new turn this year with the advent this spring of the GLP1 pill – but what do we think?
We’re all over protein or course and now ‘fibre-maxing’ for gut health and hormone detox is the new must-do, especially as 96% percent of UK adults don’t get the recommended 30g per day. We pick our favourite fibre supps and surprising fibre-rich foods.
Hair salons are having an upgrade, with cosmetic treatment and jabs to support hair growth (and there’s a new LED hair helmet Victoria loves, see below).
And is your makeup in a midlife rut? We share the brands we swear by for a grown-up glow.
