Nanny's Health Select Committee says health workers should use every opportunity to deal with the problem.
The BBC quoted the committee:
"The committee regards it as inexplicable and unacceptable that the NHS is now spending more on bariatric surgery for obesity than on a national roll-out of intensive lifestyle intervention programmes that were first shown to cut obesity and prevent diabetes over a decade ago.Compulsory exercise for all!
We call on the next government to make a clear commitment, together with appropriate long-term funding, to significantly increase the levels of cycling and walking
It is vital that the importance of physical activity for all the population - regardless of their weight, age, gender, health, or other factors - is clearly articulated and understood."
Huzzah!
