Eye opening insight to kick off the day: nearly 50% of the UK has no tier 3/4 services. Higher investment is needed to tackle rising rates of obesity & remote hybrid care is key to scaling these essential healthcare services #DUKPC22

Patient puts DM2 into remission eating low carb high fat. People: “Too much fat is unhealthy!” Patient puts DM2 into remission by eating 800 kcal daily. People: “That’s starvation!” Patient puts DM2 into remission with surgery. People: “That’s barbaric!” Moral: People suck
