People should be told to cut down on their sugar intake and limit time in front of the television to fend off obesity, health officials have warned.
New NHS guidance states that following a healthy diet and being active is important for everyone, not just for those who are overweight or obese.
Doctors will start recommending overweight patients have TV-free days or get strict and cut their viewing time to two hours per day, according to fresh guidelines.
People should also keep an eye on their weight using bathroom scales and calories counting apps, according to the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
