On this episode of The Health Detective Podcast, host Evan Transue, AKA, Detective Ev, is talking with guest Matty Lansdown, a scientist, nutritionist, and coach specializing in emotional eating and self-sabotage.

The podcast also touches upon the critical role of nutrition and lifestyle in preventing diseases like cancer and diabetes, bringing to light Lansdown's mission to help people not just to diet better but to live healthier, more mindful lives.
