It's Biology, Not a Choice: Why We Need to Change the Way We Treat Obesity - Health Talks

It is undeniable that obesity is a chronic disease and that obesity is driven by powerful underlying biology, not choice. In this episode of OAC Health Talks, obesity medicine expert Dr. Lee Kaplan will discuss the biology behind the disease of obesity and why we must change the way we treat it. By understanding the science, we can create a society that understands, respects and accepts the complexities of the disease of obesity and prioritizes accessible, science-based treatment.
