“Just listened to Dr Mills and her research on fructose.
My grandmother who had old age diabetes and passed away in 1995, was “prescribed” fructose by her GP in lieu of regular sugar because of her diabetes.”

“With some ocker-ised nom de plumes, this pair cuts the grade for commercial radio entertainment. But they report on FACTUAL information and salient health topics. An asset to our august public broadcaster and dearly valued by the listening public.”

“Great podcast Tegan. As an ex-shift worker I’d really love to see some serious studies on sleep. The sort of studies that governments and employers have to take notice of. Keep up the good work.”

“Completely superficial treatment of the subject. Really worthless. Might as well not have bothered. Also Norman’s comment about husbands not bothering their husbands - really trivializing what is a serious concern for many relationships”

“I’ve been listening to the Health Report for years, but like all ABC content I’m giving it up. Unsubscribed from today.

“As usual a thought provoking report that shows via evidence (although evidence itself suffers from gender bias) that womens health and the way their bodies work and react to treatments can be different and that most treatments are skewed to men because studies are done prominently on men.
