Obesity in Ireland is at "epidemic" levels with 60% of Irish adults overweight or obese, a top weight loss doctor has said.
Dr Eva Orsmond, who specialises in weight management treatments, said people need to be more aware of their lifestyle habits as their health can be "seriously affected by excess weight".
She cites fizzy drinks as one of the worst things to consume when it comes to unhealthy foods and drinks as they are full of hidden calories.
