Baroness Boycott (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 21 July 2025

Debate

Weight Loss Medication

Contribution

My Lords, I think everyone welcomes the advent of these drugs for people who have serious weight problems, but what happens when they come off them, and what are the Government doing to ensure that we have a much healthier diet available to people of any income, wherever they are? Quite frankly, if your diet becomes one Coca-Cola and one hamburger rather than five times that, it will not fix your health in the long term. It might get your weight down, but you will still be, essentially, a malnourished human being.
