E.170 Only 2% of Information on TIKTOK is Accurate with Suzy Peach
This week in my kitchen, I’m joined by Suzy Peach, GP and Co-Founder of Peach Wellness Academy (PWA)—a health and wellness curriculum designed to bridge the gap in wellness education for children, though it’s accessible to all ages.Suzy shares insights from her medical practice, where she noticed a worrying trend: while access to information about health has never been easier, the quality of that information has declined. Despite being more “educated” than ever, many of us are misinformed, self-diagnosing, and relying on inaccurate sources.Peach Wellness Academy focuses on all aspects of wellness, with a particular emphasis on sexual health and mental health—two areas that are often misunderstood yet widely discussed. The curriculum is designed to complement school learning, not replace it, while also equipping parents with tools to answer the questions of today’s curious minds.In an age where social media can be both a platform for knowledge and a breeding ground for misinformation, Suzy explains how her experiences as a GP inspired her to create a curriculum that helps children and families navigate health and wellbeing more confidently.Topics we discuss:What is wrong with health and wellness education amongst children at the moment?What is peach wellness academy The fundamental problems that girls are experiencing now as a result of lack of education from schools Female Health - we don’t know enough - why?Mental Health and the self-diagnosing crisesModern day health and wellness - what we need to know has changed TikTok being a source of information Vaping - the damage that is having on young children To visit Peach Wellness Academy - click hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com Hosted on Acast.

We explore the power of plants, nutrition, and the incredible benefits of eating more whole, natural foods.

E.166 *LIVE PANEL* on Functional Nutrition and The Animal Based Argument
This week, Catch Ups steps out of the kitchen for a special live panel discussion recorded at KARVE’s brand-new studio in London Victoria. We marked the launch with an inspiring conversation featuring three incredible founders: Rhian Stephenson (ARTAH), Matt McEntegart (ROAM), and Lisa Jeffries (JAGA).Our discussion centres on Functional Nutrition, in celebration of KARVE’s new Functional Nutrition Bar. Each founder has built their brand around natural, functional ingredients — from nootropics like Cordyceps to natural beef protein in ROAM bars. We explore the growing interest in animal-based diets, with Matt and Rhian diving into a thoughtful debate about their benefits (and potential downsides).We also touch on alcohol, balance, and the idea that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. This panel was packed with fresh perspectives and valuable insights — I think you’re going to love it.The topics we discussed are:The power of NootropicsCreatine and why it is so important for women to take itThe journey of Matt creating ROAM due to his need for a natural high protein snackThe ancestral dietThe debate on whether it is unhealthy to be consuming a lot of red meatReducing alcohol consumptionHow alcohol affects both men and women so differentlyARTAH's deep detox supplementWhy ROAM adds Whey into their beef barsThe power of consuming collagen and what that doesThe importance of movement as well as nutritionHave either of them tried pilatesCheck out the amazing brands:Visit ARTAH - hereVisit ROAM - hereVisit JAGA - hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com Hosted on Acast.
