Description
The Crisis of Obesity: It is Reversible? features a panel of renowned experts who examine the relationship between non-genetic components (e.g. physical activity and nutrition) and obesity and discuss how altering energy balance affects weight loss. The video explores the misplaced focus on the treatment of obesity, rather than the prevention of this major public health issue. The video also looks at the federal program, Let's Move, initiated by Michelle Obama, aimed at solving the challenge of childhood obesity within the period of a generation.
