Diet-Related Disorders. Type 2 Diabetes, Obesity, and Celiac Disease

Description

This program examines three common diet-related disorders and their relationship to what people eat and drink. The causes, characteristics, and treatment of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and celiac disease are discussed, along with strategies for their prevention. With an emphasis on breakfast, snacks, and gluten-free alternatives, students will learn how to eat without reaching for convenience foods, and that using a "traffic light" approach allows for the occasional treat. Balancing exercise with computer time is urged. An on-screen summary at the end of each segment makes this video an especially effective teaching tool.
