Publisher's summary

Rising obesity is causing life expectancy to fall for the first time in centuries, costing the NHS £3. billion a year. So why we are fatter as a nation than we have ever been before? Is obesity a choice or an illness? And why is childhood obesity at epidemic levels? Fat: Eating ourselves to death?

Looks at the complex recipe of modern life that leads to obesity and our options for reversing this trend, from individual to national action. Pocket Issue slims down the issue to give you some answers.

Waste of money and brain space. Don't bother!

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Nothing good I could find. I'll just keep eating I guess! It made no sense and was a waste of time.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
