I started to watch this but decided against it fairly rapidly. Maybe they thought that exposing themselves to the public they would have to do something about their lifestyle. With all the info out there about diet and obesity, I struggle to understand why so many people are seemingly unable to make more healthy choices.
Interestingly, I was called to give a blood sample by the practice nurse to check sugar levels as I’d previously shown as pre-diabetic. She then wanted to send me to the local diet clinic to improve my diet. I didn’t take up the offer as I believed my diet was ok. My bloods came back as normal.
I’m very glad our local health people are starting to use these methods to improve understanding of diet for ordinary folk rather than just giving medication. If all health authorities, schools etc. followed healthy eating patterns and taught the basics of household management, maybe our health would improve.
I just feel very sad for those on benefits who have little knowledge and rely on highly processed food just to get some calories into their bodies.
Sorry for straying from the subject. I can’t help feeling that so many people have been brainwashed into thinking that big brands are better, with supermarkets making it difficult to shop healthily. There is so much food rubbish about!
