Male Attitudes to Diets29 August 2006
Is fat really just a feminist issue with new Government figures predicting one in three men will be obese by 2010?

Should we be encouraging men to be more aware of their weight? Could they, like so many women, become obsessive about their diet and their appearance? Is it unmanly to diet? And is the language of dieting too female focussed?

To discuss these questions Jenni is joined by William Leith, author of The Hungry Years and Dr Ian Banks from the Men’s Health Forum.
