Why do we still judge fat people? | Alice Snedden’s Bad News | The Spinoff

Alice Snedden has been on a diet since she was a child, but nothing has ever made a difference. Could it be that BMI is bullshit and being fat is a result of environment and genetics, rather than just poor life choices? In this episode, she speaks with health minister Andrew Little, endocrinologist Robyn Toomath and academic Ashlea Gillon to find out why there is still such a stigma around being fat in Aotearoa. 🎞 Alice Snedden’s Bad News takes one curious comedian inside the most complex and controversial issues facing Aotearoa today.
