This week we are discussing Bioactives, the naturally occurring compounds in fruits and vegetables that quietly influence our health in ways we are only just beginning to understand. We explore what these compounds are, where they come from, how they interact with the human body, and why variety and colour on your plate matter more than you might think.  This conversation cuts through the hype of supplements and superfoods, and instead offers a grounded approach into the chemistry of the foods we eat every day, and how we should be making choices around the foods that we consume. If you've ever wondered about the power of produce, what is really going on inside our fruits and vegetables, then this episode is for you!  Get guest updates and submit your listener questions via Instagram:  https://instagram.com/travellingscience/ Chapters: 00:00 Travelling Science Intro 04:00 What Are Bioactives? 09:25 Health Benefits of Bioactives 21:30 Making Produce more Bioavailable 31:30 Slowing Down & Balancing Life 35:05 The Issues with Supplements 42:40 Music, Dance & Martial Arts 47:24 Listener Questions & Weekly Charity 50:25 Lightning Round! 54:53 Final Words of Wisdom 58:04 Bonus Secret Ending!

I recently travelled to India and participated in a 10-day Vipassana meditation course. In this episode I’m going to discuss what it involved, how it worked and the results that I observed after taking the course.  Topics covered include: -Noble Silence, 10 days without speaking to another human -giving up all personal electronic devices -waking up at 4am every morning -meditating for 12 hours every day -being stuck with nothing but your thoughts all day, every day Ultimately, the course focused on the concepts of impermanence and constant change, but throughout the 10 days a lot more was learned about one’s self and one’s reality.

This week we are trying to solve nature conservation problems using social psychology. Humans are a part of nature, and we need to be responsible for protecting it rather than potentially irreversible damage. During our conversation, we discuss topics such as animal control, green prescriptions, Australian Dingoes, Canadian super wolves, spying on other animals and what we can do as individuals to preserve nature. Watch the video version of the podcast here: https://youtu.be/q8kULZSpT3Q Dr Lily van Eeden is an interdisciplinary scientist with expertise in conservation biology and social psychology.
