Dr Giles Yeo is an obesity geneticist, author and science presenter, who specialises in studying the control of bodyweight. He’s also very clued up on the supplements industry after participating in a TV investigation into it, so I made sure we addressed some of your viewer questions surrounding vitamin pills.

🔹why your brain hates it when you lose weight
🔹a reason why eating less and moving more may not have worked for you
🔹why liposuction for weight-loss will increase your chances of dying, according to Giles
🔹what happened to Giles’ weight when he tried a plant-based vegan diet
🔹his surprising findings from an investigation into supplements
🔹which vitamins can be dangerous, and even increase risk of death
🔹how to be savvy about marketing messages on supplements
