In a world of endless wellness advice, learn how to make smarter decisions about your health with the empowering new book from doctor and broadcaster Xand Van Tulleken.

With exclusive bonus content featuring an interview between Xand and his twin brother Chris van Tulleken, author of #1 Sunday Times bestseller Ultra Processed People.

Drawing on original reporting, expert insight and real-world case studies, he explores:

  • The truth about supplements and vitamins - what works and what doesn’t
  • The rise of at-home blood testing and personalised health plans
  • How wearable technology (fitness trackers, sleep trackers, smartwatches) shapes our behaviour
  • The promises and pitfalls of consumer genomics and DNA testing
  • Why the line between healthcare and the wellness industry has become blurred
  • There has never been a more confusing time to try to be healthy.


From supplements and blood testing to wearable technology and consumer genomics, the modern wellness industry promises better energy, performance and longevity. But how much of it is science, and how much is marketing?

In his groundbreaking book, Make Me Well, Xand van Tulleken investigates the new Wild West of the wellness industry, offering a clear, evidence-based guide to navigating today’s most popular health trends.

With practical advice and accessible science, Make Me Well will help you cut through misinformation, avoid unnecessary costs, and make informed decisions about your physical and mental wellbeing.

If you’ve ever wondered which health trends are worth your time and money, this is your essential guide to modern wellness.

This book is actually useful. Timely and thorough, it tells us what’s what. (Tim Key)
A much-needed an injection of hard science into the booming global wellness industry. With the deep erudition of an actual doctor, the urgent prose of a proper public intellectual, and the story-telling nous of one of our greatest communicators, Xand van Tulleken's MAKE ME WELL has demolished several shoddy shibboleths and pointed the way to a better, happier, healthier life. I cannot think of a more valuable public service. And frankly I will never look at a vitamin supplement, longevity 'hack', or collagen dose the same way again. (Amol Rajan)
If anyone can drag the wellness industry into the light and make you laugh while doing it, it’s Xand van Tulleken. Beautifully researched, clear-eyed and very funny — essential reading for anyone who’s ever scrolled past a wellness miracle wondering whether any of it actually works. A generous guide to an industry that depends on us not asking too many questions. (Hannah Fry)
Make Me Well made me laugh, made me angry -- and ultimately made me feel better informed about my health. A deeply researched tour of a multibillion dollar industry that's more nutritious than any supplement you've ever seen advertised on a podcast. And he's made it funny, too. Put down your multivitamins and read this at once. (Helen Lewis)
[A] revelatory and eminently accessible book. (Caroline Sanderson)
In this accessible, illuminating read, the doctor and broadcaster separates fact from fiction.
Digs into everything from the supposed benefits of vitamin D supplements and turmeric tablets to wearable health technology, blood tests and so-called anti-ageing pills. [van Tulleken] finds that the claims made for the above mostly don't stand up to hard science ... This can't be documented too many times as we face an extraordinary surge in innovation, transforming drug design, genomics and diagnostics that yields ever more complexity and confusion. So how do we stay healthy, facing such an onslaught -- and naked corporate greed? Quite likely, we could do worse than start here.
A thorough, entertaining investigation into the unintended consequences of the wellness industry.
Combines the rigour of an investigative journalist with medical expertise and the bouncy bedside manner that makes him such a natural broadcaster. He’s also the best kind of science writer, leaning into complexity while making it as easy to digest as a fish oil gummy (another thing you might want to stop forking out for) ... a book that deserves to prompt some kind of industry reckoning.
Pacy and compelling ... an engaging book that makes the science accessible and the findings clear.

Really accessible, engaging and interesting. So surprised about the vitamin D content. I thought that was nailed on! Think I probably need to listen to this once a year as an inoculation for online advertising and promotion. Very much recommend!

Loved it especially enjoyed the sarcastic yet gentle humour but more than anything knowing all this was fact checked learning about the Cochran protocol which makes a statement definitive and true and especially knowing that bicarbonate of soda has a fitness edge just made my day have already recommended on to at least 3 people and will browbeat my kids into reading it

Clarity

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
As a middle aged woman, I’m bombarded with wellness advice on social media and health podcasts.
It’s a challenge to ignore what seems to be helpful guidance. I have been convinced to follow programs, take supplements and track my stats on wearables.
It’s refreshing to hear some common sense, take a step back from the wellness space to think about what a money making machine it is.
On finishing the book, I cancelled a costly collagen supplement subscription and intend to go back to listening to my own body and trusting my instincts on the state of my health.
Thank you Xand.

Thorough honest advice

Everyone should read, a must for anyone who spends money on supplements and is interested in health.

Honesty

This book, like Chris’s book on UPF, deserves to shape the conversation about supplements for the next twenty years. This book is easy to read, at times hilarious and who would have thought Xand could weave a member of Guns n’ Roses into it? More than anything, it should save us all a lot of money. This proves how much our political climate has failed us.

Fun and eye opening
