Muffin tops: But eating less and exercising more may have no impact on people putting on weight
We are all getting fatter. We know this because the Government tells us all the time, in every report, health warning and advertising campaign it issues.
For the past 30 years we've been told to eat less and exercise more, to cut back on calories and on saturated fat and, on the whole, we're doing it.
Our calorific intake between the years 1974 and 2004 decreased by 20 per cent. We are eating about 20 per cent more fruit and vegetables than in the Seventies.
We are doing approximately 25 per cent more exercise than we were in 1997.

So what is really behind this obesity epidemic? I'll tell you.
