SCOTS MP Jo Swinson has written to magazine editors, asking them not to promote post-Christmas "miracle" diets as they pose a health risk.
The Equalities Minister and LibDem MP for East Dunbartonshire appealed to them to "shed fad diets and fitness myths" in the new year and "celebrate the beauty of diversity in body shape, skin colour, size and age".
