Can you be fat and medically fit? It would seem that the answer is no according to experts. New research shows that people who are obese are not protected from ill health in later life, contradicting previous research. The term refers to the theory that if people are obese but all their other factors such as blood pressure and blood sugar are within recommended limits then the extra weight will not be harmful. Stephen got the views of size acceptance campaigner Kathryn Szrodecki and commentator Paul Martin.
