More About Michael Mosley

Michael has been involved in making programmes for the small screen for nearly four decades, including work with stars of TV John Cleese, Jeremy Clarkson, Professor Robert Winston and Sir David Attenborough.

Michael devised and executive-produced three the hugely popular Pompeii- the last day, Supervolcano and Krakatoa and was executive producer of QED, Trust Me I’m a Doctor and Superhuman, and presenter on Eat, Fast Live Longer; and The Truth about Exercise.

In 2021 Michael presented How to Keep a Healthy Weight on Channel 4 and Diagnosis Detectives on BBC Two. Exploring issues around the obesity crisis, he presented Michael Mosley: Who Made Britain Fat? in 2022, which was broadcast on Channel 4.

Since 2021, Michael has also hosted a BBC Podcast Just One Thing in which he reveals surprisingly simple tips that are scientifically-proven to change your life.

Back in 2012, Michael presented Eat, Fast, Live Longer, an episode of the long-running Horizon series on BBC. Here he explored the science behind the ancient idea of fasting, which he found to have life-changing results.

Michael first became interested in intermittent fasting when he discovered, through a random blood test, that he had type 2 diabetes. Determined to find a drug-free way to ‘cure’ his diabetes, he tested a number of different forms of intermittent fasting.

Michael Mosley’s books

Following the success of Eat, Fast & Live Longer Michael co-authored a book called The Fast Diet with Evening Standard journalist Mimi Spencer. Since then, he has authored a number of best selling books, including The 8-week blood sugar diet:how to beat diabetes fast; The Fast 800 Diet; and The Fast 800 Keto. Based on his popular podcast, Michael’s latest book is Just One Thing, published in 2022.
