Series 1: Episode 2

Two thousand five hundred people die each year from mesothelioma, a cancer caused by asbestos that is completely preventable. Liam and Helen are in their 30s and 40s but have been given the devastating diagnosis. Despite being a banned material, asbestos is still found in schools, hospitals, factories and many public buildings. So, how can we keep ourselves safe?\n\nWe explore the idea behind the lion diet – only eating meat, salt and water for 30 days. And the shocking story of the woman who faked a DNA paternity test to deny her ex-partner access to his child. We expose how quick, cheap and easy it is to get your hands on fake DNA documentation.\n\nAlso, we look into the growing practice of using maggots in modern medicine. They feed on dead and infected tissue but leave healthy tissue alone, making them a highly effective tool in wound care.\n\nAnd – putting the three-second rule to the test. Is it really OK to eat food off the floor?\n
