Summary

With over 50% of the UK population either overweight or obese, it’s no wonder there’s so much interest in weight loss. And while weight loss is often considered healthy, if you gain the weight back and then lose it again over and over, it can become a vicious, and dangerous cycle of yo-yo dieting. This week’s Food For Thought with TV personality Vicky Pattison explores all the promises to help you lose weight that aren’t backed by scientific evidence, and may actually hurt your health more than help it.
