At the age of 50, Prof Godfrey Grech found himself facing an unsettling reality. Despite being a cancer researcher and advocate for health, his own body was telling a different story.

High cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid dysfunction, chronic inflammation and mild dysbiosis had crept up on him. He was also overweight, tipping the scales at 98kg. He was “making a mess of my health”, he says.
