Dieting, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and mortality
We know that adults with obesity have an increased risk of premature mortality, cardiovascular disease, some cancers, type 2 diabetes, and many other diseases.
However, the effect of dieting on 3 of those outcomes (cancer, cvd, and mortality) is surprisingly little studied.
However a new systematic review and meta-analysis does bring together what we know of that effect, and to explain the evidence we're joined by Alison Avenell, professor in the Health Services Research Unit, University of Aberdeen.

However, for some, remission seems to be a possibility.
To discuss we're joined by Mike Lean, professor of human nutrition at the university if Glasgow, and co-author of an analysis, published on bmj.com, which impels doctors to make sure that type to dia betes remissio...
