Description

Excess salt is bad for you, right?

Mike and Matt investigate (and try their hand at debating), whilst trying to slip in some terrible salt-related puns.


In a world of endless health fads and self-help noise, it’s hard to know what to trust.

Subscribe to Beyond the Limits, our myth-busting fortnightly podcast, to get clear insights on the latest health trends, wellness fads, and performance medicine breakthroughs.
