Can your blood type tell you what to eat? Are plant proteins really "incomplete"? And does eating more colourful fruit and veg actually make a difference?

This week we're tackling some of the biggest nutrition myths doing the rounds online. From the return of the blood type diet to the truth about complete proteins, fibre sodas and ground flaxseed, we separate the evidence from the hype. We also explain why herbs deserve far more credit, whether smelly digestion is normal, and why simply adding more colour to your plate could benefit your health.
