Every day, we’re surrounded by health advice: endless tips, trends, diets, hacks and supposed quick fixes. But when it comes to our bodies and minds, what can genuinely help make a difference – and what is just hype?

Guided by world-class neuroscientists, nutritionists, movement coaches and psychotherapists, Joe Wicks separates social media trends from evidence-backed advice to find out what can actually work when it comes to our health. He spends 24 hours in an isolated forest cabin, deprives himself of sleep and tracks everything from fibre intake to stool samples.

Across five episodes, he explores some of the health topics many of us are searching for online – including sleep, nutrition, movement, nature and mental health – to uncover the everyday changes that can genuinely help us live longer, healthier, happier lives. Joe discovers why birdsong can support our health, explores the gut-brain connection and learns how to make friends with anxiety. He also learns why boredom matters, puts viral health hacks to the test and faces his biggest fear – all to discover simple, effective ways to live a healthier, happier life.
