No-Nonsense Nutrition - Part 1: Can diet cure or reverse the main chronic diseases ? | Dr Matthew Nagra

We are joined by Dr Matthew Nagra to look at whether the main chronic diseases (cancer, diabetes & cardiovascular disease) can be cured or reversed by nutrition. We also take a dive into how we can infer causality from epidemiological studies using the Bradford-Hill viewpoints. Let's learn!
