Up until a couple of years ago, NHS surgeon Dr Joshua Wolrich believed a person’s health was defined by their weight. He judged patients who came into hospital based on their size. His feelings on weight and health also impacted his own psyche, he didn’t believe he could be a good doctor unless he lost weight.
Well now he’s taken to studying nutrition and he’s battling diet culture and “nutribollocks”, head on.
His message is clear – we need to fight weight stigma, call out the lies of diet culture and give ourselves permission to eat all foods.
Dr Joshua Wolrich already has a podcast and an active presence on Instagram. Now he has a new book, it’s called Food Isn’t Medicine: Challenge Nutribollocks and Escape the Diet Trap.
He joined Francesca Rudkin on the show this morning.
