Spoon fed: a webinar with Tim Spector - 21 May 2020

Please note that this event has passed.


Five years after the release of his groundbreaking book, The Diet Myth, Professor Tim Spector, Head of Department of Twin Research & Genetic Epidemiology at King's College London, forces us to rethink our whole relationship with food.

Through his pioneering scientific research, Professor Spector has been shocked to discover how little good evidence there is for many of our most deep-rooted ideas about food. Join King's alumni around the world for this exclusive webinar, where Professor Spector will discuss his latest book, Spoon-Fed: Why Almost Everything We’ve Been Told about Food is Wrong. Professor Spector explores the scandalous lack of good science behind many medical and government food recommendations, and how the food industry holds sway over these policies and our choices.

Spoon-Fed will be released on 27 August 2020 and is available now for pre-order here.
