My twin brother hit 19 stone. I worry he'll die young... DR CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN's personal account will touch a nerve with many who worry about the health of their own loved ones
After 20 years of being a doctor and a decade of broadcasting on health issues, I’ve come to realise that giving people advice is largely unhelpful — most of us know what we need to do and in general, the best way of helping people is to support them in reaching their own particular solution to a problem, rather than imposing a solution on them.
