"I spend half my week practising medicine and the other half writing and talking about it as a GP in Gloucestershire. Working on Case Notes has been a boon for both me and my patients. One of the principal aims of the programme is to keep our listeners up-to-date with the latest developments in healthcare, and to accomplish that I get to interview a wide range of specialists at the cutting edge of medicine. A rare privilege that ensures our listeners aren't the only ones to learn something new."

Get Fit and Get Well Food
The news has been overshadowed by the obesity epidemic that seems to be sweeping the nation - but how fit do we really need to be, and just how much fat can we get away with and still be healthy?听
Obesity
Dr Mark Porter visits an obesity clinic in Chichester where exercise and education in healthy eating is making a difference in the lives of children in the area.听
Post-op recovery
He also speaks to medical staff at the hospital who are in charge of what you should eat post-operation.听Lying in bed, not doing anything except recovering from major surgery might mean you need more calories than you think. Plus if you are just that little bit underweight - what should you eat to put on sufficient weight that will not put your health in jeopardy?听
Supplements
We'll also be finding out about supplements recommended for healthy living - are they any good? The government听has听announced that manufacturers of sports supplements have the choice to Kitemark their products.听听听This would help save confusion for听athletes when competing. Other vitamins and supplements are currently being given awards by chemists, yet how do you know the product you are taking has been endorsed by the right people and for the right reasons? Case Notes听 finds out what you should be taking and why.听
Join Dr Mark Porter for the first in a new series of Case Notes听 on Get Fit and Get Well Food on Tuesday 10th August 2004.
Next week
Next week's topic is: Prescription Drugs
