The Truth about Fat

Description

Surgeon Gabriel Weston wants to find out why we're getting fatter - and she doesn't believe that it's simply a failure of self-control. From the power of hormones on our appetite to stomach surgery, genetics, and the impact of a pregnant woman's diet on her unborn child, Weston explains the science behind obesity and asks whether new research can help fight the fat epidemic.
