Podcast: Health for the unhealthy

Can you eat a bag of chips a day without getting fat? Is it better to be active and overweight than to sit still and be thin? Should I smoke e-cigarettes or snuff? Should I give up meat and sugar or neither? Experts meet and answer questions they don't usually get asked. And politicians try to figure out what they really want to achieve and how.

Health for the Unhealthy is led by physician Vincent Amble-Naess and EPHI Communications Officer Nicolina Söderqvist.
