On this week's episode I'm getting myself into trouble by mentioning my top 3 "worst people in health and fitness".
My top 3 are;
First bit up to 27-28 minute mark;
Nr 1 Dr Michael Mosley. He makes the list as a serial publisher of crash-diet books built on iffy interpretations of research.
Then 28 minute to Approx 52 minutes;
Nr 2 Dr Asher Larmie, also known as "The Fat Doctor". They make the list as a serial denier of basic science which is often the case when activists get caught up in their own world.
A link to the study Dr Larmie quoted where they claim Obesity isn't a factor but race and ethnicity is...check the conclusion of the study to see my point;

And some links that show that the above is clearly incorrect/outdated

https://www.cdc.gov/obesity/data/obesity-and-covid-19.html
Now, as I point out, this is not about the people themselves. It's about their work and the overall message they send out.
As someone will, no doubt, point out; These people are not part of the health and fitness industry and...indeed, they are definitely not in the Health business.
52 minutes onwards;
We have Nr 3; The guys behind "Bosh", the vegan products, or at least their marketing department. This could have been deliciously Ella or "The Plant Chef/ founder of Wickd". We spoke before about the "veganisation of junk food" and the health problems that brings, which is why they made my top 3.
