Reg Mitchell, previously a professor at University of Victoria, and well known for his science lectures to children as Dr Zonk and the Kids, talks about better living through chemistry.
Chemicals are often thought of as bad. That is unless we really need them – for example to remove wrinkles and make our skin look young again; to stave off the effects of aging. "When you say the word 'chemical' to the public, they automatically think about toxins," says Mitchell. "There are some chemicals that are bad, but they're certainly not all bad. I don't like to see misinformation spouted about."
Reg will take a light-hearted look at the effects of some of the chemicals we happily use to enhance our bodies and our lives.
