Recognizing obesity as a complex, chronic disease sounds simple. In practice, it is surely not. At the same time a diagnosis of obesity opens up possibilities for medical care, it risks opening up a burden of stigma. HT: @the-independent.com conscienhealth.org/2026/09/27/c...

Clive Bates on fire. Stakeholders without a stake The most legitimate stakeholders are those directly affected; consumers and businesses. Tobacco control activists have no inherent claim to legitimacy and must show credible, ethical reasoning. clivebates.substack.com/p/stakeholde...

Stakeholders without a stake
The most legitimate stakeholders are those directly and personally affected by policy, practice and communications - smokers and vapers. Activists should show some humility.

Sooner or later we will be numb to headlines like this. They are screaming at us this week that every 100 grams of ultra-processed food we eat is linked to an increased risk of death. How much? That’s in the fine print – three percent. 🙄 conscienhealth.org/2026/09/26/l...

"A sizable number of people taking drugs like Ozempic have no medical reason to do so.” So says the @nytimes.com times. Based on the lack of good documentation for obesity in medical records. So underdiagnosis feeds implicit bias, which feeds underdiagnosis. 😠 conscienhealth.org/2026/09/24/m...
