I watched it, I felt like slapping some of them. there were a couple of people who seemed to think that being obese did not increase the chances of type2 diabetes . Even when confronted by a gentleman who had suffered an amputation because he got gangrene as a result of neuropathy it was just scare mongering! Apparently it was 'fat shaming' to point out that being obese/fat/overweight could cause severe health issues. TBH I just wanted to tell them that they were fat and that I would like to see them in 20 years time to find out if they still felt the same way.
BTW my oldest adult child has type 1 diabetes. It is a cruel illness and can cause so many other health issues.
