  • Summary

  • In this episode Olly wants to find out exactly how overweight he is and whether he needs to lose weight for medical reasons. Olly has a full body scan and Dr. Sadaaf Farooqi explains why Body Mass Index is not always a reliable measurement and how being overweight can affect your health.

    Medical historian Louise Foxcroft takes us through how our idea of the ideal body weight has changed over time.

slow but interesting

it was difficult to continually follow along they seemed to draw out the story . But it was very interesting to find out about the information of the BMI and the info on how the body should be measured .
