What determines your diet in the UK is the UK food environment, which essentially forces a majority of people to mostly eat unhealthy food.
Again, as with the sort of sedentary life, if you are sitting here thinking, I just love to lose a few kilos, I'm just not at the weight and it's my own personal failures.
Again, direct that self-loathing outwards to where should we locate our frustrations?
Can we quickly touch on mental health?
I think Chris and I would not say that mental health is an area of personal responsibility, but you do hear it, right?
You do hear people going, well, come on, cheer up.
Go for a walk.
You'll feel better.
Can you talk to us about mental health and how we might approach that at a sort of community level as a public health issue?
I think the topic of mental health brings us very quickly to the subject of wealth and how money relates to our physical and mental well-being.
Is money just a reflection that you don't smoke so much, that you're less exposed to ads for harmful food?
Or are there other more subtle effects of your individual income?
Well, speak for yourself, but OK.
And those places, are you referring to the blue zones?
Tell us a bit about them.
Can we learn anything from those areas?
Your lovely line where you said, look, no one in Sardinia is living long because they've read more books on how to live long, how to live like a Sardinian.
They're just living in Sardinia.
And the same with people in Nicoya Peninsula and Costa Rica or Caria in Greece, that they haven't got a handbook.
They're just living their Greek lives.
