Alex Flint: Exerising just isn't enough for weight loss
It's no secret that as we get older, our metabolism slows down a bit, and staying in shape just gets harder to do - from keeping lean, maintaining muscle, and removing stubborn fat. Ricky Gervais had a tweet about how he's working out everyday now - playing tennis, lifting weights and running. His heart's good, and he trains at a good intensity - but he wonders why he's stil overweight and exhausted? We could just stay in the gym for longer - but not everyone's got enough time in their day for that... so what are the ways we can keep with our fitness? and why's it harder as we get older? Our guest is the founder of BodyTorque Fitness, and knows all about helping people over 40 lose stubborn weight, build lean muscle, and restore energy - Fitness Coach Alex Flint joins Tim Beveridge for Health Hub...

Dr Michel Neeff: We're too casual about our hearing
The World Health Organisation estimates over a billion people between the ages of 12 and 35 are at high risk of hearing loss due to unsafe habits. The key cause for the age group is simply listening to music for too long, and too loudly, in headphones or earbuds. Even a movie cinema is likely to have unsafe sound levels.

Allyson Gofton: Maintaining a healthy diet with a busy life
One of the most challenging parts of being an adult is trying to figure out what you're going to eat, three times a day, every day, when you're often too busy to make anything more substantial than beans on toast. Regardless, we continue the mental battle every single day, trying to figure out a way to whip up something relatively healthy before the next sport drop off.
