Weight Britain

FAT, LAZY AND DEPRESSED

- JERRY LAWTON

BRITS are fatter than people in other countries and do less sport.

We also eat less healthy fruit and veg than most other nationalities, yet we are also less likely to monitor our blood pressure and heart or test for cholesterol.

Medics said the results of the research should shake Brits into getting in shape.

Benoit Chardon, of Allurion, which makes gastric balloons to aid weight loss, commissioned the study.
