The French Do It Differently

The French Do It Differently

by Dr Joe | Nov 26, 2018 | Food, LCHF, Modern Life, Nanny State, Nutrition, Parenting, Personal Responsibility, Public Health, Weight Loss

The French have a reputation, rightly or wrongly, for arrogance. They believe that the French way is best and everyone else should get on board. Sometimes they have a point. Gavin Mortimer wrote an interesting piece in The Spectator comparing rates of childhood...
Tricks, Treats And Long Drives

Tricks, Treats And Long Drives

by Dr Joe | Nov 5, 2018 | Modern Life, Nanny State, Parenting, Personal Responsibility, Public Health, Relationships

Being healthy is more than eating sensibly and exercising – hence there are eight rather than two pillars of health. Relaxation, sleep, relationships together with fun and purpose get less attention as there are few pharmaceutical agents and no grant funding for big...

by Dr Joe | Oct 15, 2018 | Common Sense, Modern Life, Nanny State, Nutrition, Public Health, The Practice of Medicine

Last newsletter I wrote about how the clock was ticking for the boosters of the low fat diet fad in big public health. This was off the back of the US Preventative Service Task Force showing that behavioural change was the best approach in managing weight and type two...
The Clock Is Ticking

The Clock Is Ticking

by Dr Joe | Oct 1, 2018 | Common Sense, Modern Life, Nanny State, Nutrition, Public Health, The Practice of Medicine

In these days of evidence based practice where generally the prize goes to the best evidence money can buy, it is refreshing that occasionally “research” catches up with the obvious. The US Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) has released a review of weight loss...
