Health guru Dr Michael Mosley has outlined two simple exercises he says can help with weight loss. The doctor, who is renowned for offering diet tips, has proved increasingly popular over the years.
His programmes have won a number of awards, and he was named "medical journalist of the year" by the British Medical Association for a ground-breaking programme on Helicobacter pylori. Dr Mosley regularly features on ITV This Morning and spoke about the importance of combining diet and exercise during a recent appearance on ITV's flagship daytime programme - as the Liverpool Echo reports.
He said: "I don’t think exercise alone is going to help you lose weight but it improves your mood if nothing else. The data suggests if you combine it [diet] with exercise that’s a great way [to lose weight]. And one of the things you want to do, and this is the importance of protein - you need at least 50g of good quality protein a day - that preserves your muscle.
