Dr Chris van Tulleken, the trusty medic from ITV's This Morning and a familiar face on TV science shows, has voiced his take on what children definitely should not include in their diets.

Presenting the BBC Two special 'Irresistible: Why We Can't Stop Eating,' and penning the hit book 'Ultra-Processed People', he's poised to delve into the profound impact of diet on our health and brainpower in the upcoming 'The Truth About Food' segment of BBC Four's Royal Institution Christmas Lectures aimed at youngsters.Van Tulleken shares a personal nugget, mentioning that his own kids never sip on soft drinks – highlighting it as the ultimate piece of health wisdom by sticking strictly to milk or water.

He is on a mission to make science engaging with classic demos and firsthand trials – even going to the lengths of swallowing a camera-pill to give youngsters an epic tour of his digestive system, breaking down each stage of how we process our grub."We're going to use cameras to get views inside the human body, and do lots of big experiments with kids about how the gut works and how your body breaks down and destroys food," van Tulleken explains.

Not stopping there, some segments will see tots transformed to atomic size for a front-row seat to what unfolds within cells and at the engine room of atoms."We're going to use cameras to get views inside the human body, and do lots of big experiments with kids about how the gut works and how your body breaks down and destroys food," says van Tulleken. "And for some demonstrations, we shrink children down to the size of atoms and show exactly what's happening inside cells and inside engines at an atomic level.", reports Surrey Live.
