Re: BBC TV tonight: TooFat Too Young
I did watch this. Interesting if unexceptional.
Quote from one doctor:
Addictive elements in food? Refined sugar and (refined) white flour.

I did read somewhere that white bread can have a glycemic index approaching that of pure sugar - French Croissant GI 95 - its plain mainlining!Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
he said, 'Don't count calories.'

Re: BBC TV tonight: TooFat Too Young
I saw the first half of this. I agree that it is good to have a Dr acknowledge the addiction element of obesity. However I don't agree entirely that it is down to personal responsibility. That is a factor, but so is the cheap and easy availability of over-sugared and high carb foods with little nutritional value.Comment
