Have we become overly-dependent on supplements?

Do you take maybe a vitamin D tablet in the morning, fish oils before your breakfast, maybe a magnesium tablet and a Vitamin C tablet to top it all off? Well, experts have warned that popping a cocktail of supplements every day might be doing you more harm than good… Sinéad O’Donovan, Registered Dietitian and Performance Nutritionist, joins Andrea to discuss.

Do we need more outdoor spaces in our cities?

With the good weather, now would be a great time to park yourself outside a café or a bar and soak in the sun, but do we have enough outdoor seating? And, are regulations too strict? Joining Andrea to discuss Gwen Leyden, Landlord of Georges Street Arcade in Dublin, Paul Montgomery, bar owner in Cork, Sunil Sharpe, Spokesperson for the Give Us The Night and listeners.

How to keep cool during the hot weather!

We’re not used to hot weather here, so our homes don’t tend to be cut out for it. How do we cool them down, get a good night’s sleep and make sure our pets are okay? Joining Andrea to give their top tips is Interior Designer Adeline Molloy, Sleep Consultant Tom Coleman and Laoise Downes, owner of Outpaws and Wedding Woofs, a bespoke dog service.
