What and how we eat, now and in the future, has never been more important in terms of its impact on our physical and mental health, and for the health of our planet. Yet it is more confusing than ever for us to know the best choices to make when so much conflicting information abounds. This is where Dr Joanna McMillan excels.  Jo has a natural ability to translate complex science into simple, everyday messages that engage; benefiting the wellbeing of audiences across all media platforms; be it audio, broadcast, print or in front of a live audience.
