Greg Bruce talks to the doctor who wants to dismantle the diet industry. Strictly speaking, Dr Joshua Wolrich hasn t written an anti-diet book - he s written an anti bulls book - but it s fair to say he and diets aren t friends. Diets he attacks, either in the book, or in the interview I recently conducted with him, or both: The Keto diet, low-carb diets, intermittent fasting diets, the raw vegan diet, Michael Mosley s diets, Jordan Peterson s meat-only diet and juice fasts.

December 2018: Facebook comes under fire after a bombshell report discovered the firm allowed over 150 companies, including Netflix, Spotify and Bing, to access unprecedented amounts of user data, such as private messages.
Some of these partners had the ability to read, write, and delete Facebook users private messages and to see all participants on a thread.
It also allowed Microsoft s search engine, known as Bing, to see the name of all Facebook users friends without their consent.

Instagram has apologised after a “mistake” with its algorithm promoted diet content to users with eating disorders.
The search function in the app automatically recommended terms including “appetite suppressants” and “fasting” to some people.

The social media platform said harmful terms have now been removed.

It s back again - and ready to sprinkle a little joy into your life! Apr 1, 2021
We won’t go on about it (unprecedented, banana bread, social distancing etc.) but the last twelve months have been an emotional rollercoaster for us all. Being separated from loved ones has seen many of us spending a tonne more time on social media – meaning it’s more important than ever to have a beautifully diverse and uplifting feed to scroll through.
Back in the offline world, there are also plenty of heroes doing incredible (and genuinely life-changing) things to take note of too – so we’ve reunited with Instagram and anti-bullying charity Cybersmile to shout out all the change-makers, joy-bringers and people making our days just that little bit brighter.
