Health seems to be overcomplicated these days - but does it really need to be? Everywhere you look you see another kind of diet, another 'must-have' exercise machine, a drink that can replace a meal, or a new gym programme that promises to finally solve all your problems. But truly, could the foundation of good health be as simple as a daily walk and eating whole foods? Why do so many people overlook what seem to be the staples of good health, instead going for expensive trends? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And it's only going to get worse as we head into summer - so how do we actually get a decent night's sleep when the weather's working against us?
