This week on Bodytalk, in association with Spire Hartswood Hospital, Jules Bottazzi focused on the recent report that highlighted UK women are the most obese in Europe. A shocking 23.9% of us are clinically obese – compared with 9.3% in Italy and 12.7% in France. Is it all about personal choices? Should the government do more, for example by taxing junk food? Are the stresses of juggling work and family life to blame?
