Personalising Your Health with Alessandro Ferretti - Dr Rangan Chatterjee

We are all bombarded by stress
throughout our daily lives and it comes in many different forms, but how do we
actually know what impact that stress is having on our bodies? One of the key
messages from today’s conversation is a reminder of how unique we all are. My
guest on this week’s episode is nutritionist and researcher, Alessandro
Ferretti, who has spent years researching the effects of various stressors on
the body by meticulously monitoring the heart rate variability (HRV) and blood
sugar levels of both his clients and himself. He shares the fascinating
findings of his research and explains that what causes stress on our bodies can
be different for different individuals – one man’s medicine really can be
another man’s poison – and the way we perceive an event is key. We also
discuss the effect of shift work on our bodies, how type 2 diabetes is not just
a dietary problem, how the wrong timing of meals can act as a significant
stressor on the body and the impact of caffeine and insufficient sleep.
Finally, he gives some brilliant tips for optimising your health. This is a
really informative conversation – I hope you enjoy it!
