Pleasure and danger are intimately linked: whether your weakness is cake, drugs, TV box sets or base-jumping, modern life presents humans with a set of temptations and consequential harms we can all understand.
Dr Xand van Tulleken will examine how it is possible to get the most out of ourselves without self-help taking over our lives and without getting distracted by fads and nonsense.
Dr Xand van Tulleken is a British doctor and TV presenter. He is best known for presenting the CBBC children's series Operation Ouch! with his slightly younger identical twin brother Chris, and the Channel 4 show How to Lose Weight Well as well as hosting the daytime show Healthcheck UK Live, which led to him appearing as the resident doctor on BBC One's ongoing flagship daytime show, Morning Live.
