Dr Mosley later advocated for The Fast 800 diet, which follows a “moderately low-carb, Mediterranean-style diet”, writing a book and several cookbooks with his wife Clare Bailey Mosley, herself a GP and health columnist.
Dr Michael Mosley, the author and presenter who revolutionised the way Britain fights the obesity crisis, has been found dead after a five-day search on a Greek island, his wife has said.
He was seen on CCTV in the village of Pedi 30 minutes later, shortly before entering a treacherous mountain path.
A major search effort was launched to find the esteemed BBC Radio 4 and This Morning presenter on Wednesday after he disappeared while holidaying on the Greek island of Symi.
