Description

Chartered statistician and cancer researcher Dr David Robert Grimes returns to Owning It to help me bust through the many myths that are fuelling our health anxiety, from full body health checks to worries about carcinogens and vaccines. What can we safely stop worrying about? David's book, The Irrational Ape is widely available and well worth a read if you like this episode.
