Intermittent fasting is an eating plan that switches between fasting and eating on a regular schedule. It’s touted as a way to manage your weight and prevent — or even reverse — some forms of disease. Professor Lauren Williams, a nutritionist and dietician from Griffith University joins us to explain the first big-time intermittent fasting diet was the 5-2 diet, where you eat restricted calories for two days…on the other five you eat what you like…but keep calories pretty low. These days there’s 16-8, where you don’t eat at ALL for 16 hours….and only eat between say, 10am and 6pm….outside that window, you’re fasting. Some people swear by it, others say it simply didn't work. So, in this episode of The Briefing, is intermittent fasting a myth, or a genius hack.

The man found guilty of the murder of US doctor Scott Johnson on Sydney’s northern beaches more than 33 years ago, was sentenced last week. Scott Phillip White was handed a sentence of 12 years and seven months - with a non-parole period of eight years and three months. Scott’s naked body was found at the base of a cliff at Blue Fish Point, at Sydney’s North Head in 1988. The area was known as a gay beat. Police determined it was suicide. A subsequent Coroner’s inquest agreed. Scott’s family believed he would never have taken his own life – and his brother Steve has fought for 34 years to secure justice for his younger brother. Steve Johnson joins us on this episode of The Briefing as we learn how and why he fought for justice – even going so far as spending a million dollars of his own money as a reward.
