The Wellness Scoop

• How to Cut Cancer Risk, Cellulite and Extra Weight

  This week, we’re talking about why vegetarian and vegan diets can cut cancer risk by up to a quarter, the “worst foods for cellulite” and what the science actually says, and the first UK trial to prove that home cooking and minimally processed foods lead to twice as much weight loss as ready-made UPFs. We also get into the rise of blueberries, how they went from totally unknown in the UK just a few decades ago to outselling apples, pears and even oranges today, and what that means for British farming. Plus, all our personal updates, this week’s wellness trends and news about new Wellness Scoop episodes!  For listener questions, please either email [email protected] or leave them on spotify/apple podcasts and leave your name, we love knowing more about you!  And for 50% off Ella’s new book ‘Quick Wins’ with the code ‘QUICKWINS50’ (enter code at checkout) https://www.waterstones.com/book/quick-wins-healthy-cooking-for-busy-lives/ella-mills/9781529316759 Learn more about your ad choices.

• Are You Stuck in a Perfectionism Trap? & The Truth About Supplements

  In this summer bonus episode of The Wellness Scoop, we’re asking if perfectionism could be quietly holding back your health goals and revealing the truth about supplements: which are worth your money, which aren’t, and how to know the difference. We’ll also look at why healthy eating is still a privilege for so many, pets vs partners when it comes to happiness, and the latest wellness trends, from the rise of sobriety to the morning routine obsession and the buzz around “OAT-Zempic.” Learn more about your ad choices.

• The Truth About Seed Oils & Gut Health vs Genetics

  Welcome to a special summer bonus episode of The Wellness Scoop. We’re asking two big questions — are seed oils really as bad as the headlines claim, and does your gut health matter more than your genetics? We’ll dig into the science behind the seed oil debate, from where the fear started to what research actually says about their impact on inflammation, heart health and longevity. Then we’ll explore new studies on the gut–brain connection, and how lifestyle choices might shape your health as much as, or more than, your DNA. Plus, why dancing could be the most joyful workout, loneliness as a rising health risk, and the latest trends from the spinach scare to the Hot Girl Walk. Learn more about your ad choices.

• The Truth About Ultra Processed Foods

  Welcome to another special live episode of The Wellness Scoop. We’re starting with a calming five-minute meditation led by Cordelia Simpson to help you pause, breathe and refill your cup before diving in. Then we’re tackling one of the most confusing topics in nutrition: ultra processed foods (UPFs). From the additives hiding in our everyday favourites to the impact on gut health, inflammation and chronic disease, we’re breaking down what the science actually says and where the gaps still are. We’re looking at how UPFs are defined, the most common ones in our diets, and how our eating habits today compare to our grandparents’ generation. We’re also exploring the links with obesity, mental health and cancer risk, plus why cost and access play such a big role in the conversation. Most importantly, we’re sharing simple, realistic swaps that make a difference without cutting out joy, from building more meals around whole foods to knowing when an additive is worth paying attention to.

  Welcome to a very special episode of The Wellness Scoop, recorded live with our amazing community. In today’s show, we’re asking whether coffee could help you age better, if cutting calories might actually harm your mental health, and why new research says exercise could be more effective than drugs in stopping cancer from returning. We’re also diving into the latest concerns around microplastics and tampons, the truth about step counts, and the role of food in supporting hormones, energy and emotional wellbeing. Plus, we’re taking brilliant questions from our live audience, from fasting and kids’ food language to organic veg and the pressure to be perfect.
