Health and wellness expert Dr Michael Mosley has urged dieters to look at what they are drinking if they are struggling to shed the pounds. In his latest blog, Dr Mosley - who is famous for his 5:2 fasting diet - warned people about the potential calories in their beverages.
Explaining where these calories are found, Dr Mosley urged people to look closely at what they drink. He wrote on the Fast 800 blog: "If you find that you're eating well, exercising and taking care of your healthy lifestyle yet the weight still manages to creep on, there may be a good reason for it.
"Coffees, alcohol and fruit juices should all be factored into your calorie intake when following a weight loss plan. Often forgotten about, your daily latte is probably adding around 1,330 calories per week to your intake, which is around 5 and a half Mars bars", reports Coventry Live.
