Surgeons explaores the possibility of your genes and hormones being related to weight gain.
Tony Fox discusses non-surgical approaches to treating obesity with huge benefits to the patient.
The programme will be repeated on BBC HD on Saturday 24th March, 11.55pm – 12.55am.
The programme is reviewed by David Butcher below:
Anyone with any kind of weight problem will tuck into this programme like a big, velvety gâteau. On the other hand, anyone inclined to feel a sense of moral superiority for being thin (such as svelte presenter Gabriel Weston) gets a helping of humble pie. Because what Weston discovers is that when a fat person moans, “It’s my hormones”, they’re probably not wrong.
Genes and hormones play a crucial role in obesity: it’s not just a question of willpower or weakness. The science is fascinating and rather reassuring, but don’t watch if you’re at all hungry. There are many shots of cake, succulent meat and chips.
About this programme
Surgeon Gabriel Weston explores why so many people are piling on the pounds – and learns about new ways to fight the flab. She discovers the hidden hormones that control appetite and sees the latest surgery that fundamentally changes what a patient wants to eat – by altering how their brains work.
