The first series of What’s Really in Our Food? investigates the food we eat, exploring where it comes from and how it is made, demystifying the science, testing the ingredients and translating the labels.

The programme offers a guide on what to eat to improve physical and mental performance and what nasties to avoid, from pesticides to superbugs and plastic residues. It features international food experts – leading medical professionals, scientists and nutritionists – who unravel the processes involved in the production of our food.

Presented by Petra Bagust in a lively, entertaining style, it appeals to a wide range of eaters, covering everything from chicken nuggets to oysters.
