Mark Hyman and I are five minutes into our chat when he picks up the phone from a fellow doctor. “Hi Eva,” he says, scurrying off. “I have to take this”. He reappears 10 minutes later.
The superstar doctor is running a seven-day retreat at the Six Senses in Ibiza: the Young Forever programme, €15,000 a head. He’s busy. He’s thriving. I feel lucky to catch him at all.
