Changing approaches to obesity
Listen now
Description
In addressing the obesity epidemic, physicians and researchers today focus on obesity as a chronic disease - not as a personal trait. Dr. Megan Bensignor of the University of Minnesota joins Sean McPherson to explain this new approach. Wellness Wednesday is hosted by Jill Riley (with, this week, guest host Sean McPherson); and produced by Christy Taylor and Jay Gabler. Our theme music is a portion of the song 'F.B. One Number 2' by Christian Bjoerklund under the Non Commercial Share Alike 3.0 International License. Head to thecurrent.org for more wellness content and great music.
