View all PlatformsObesity rates are at an all-time high, even in our children, despite the common recommendation to eat less and exercise more. While calories may be one piece of the puzzle, weight is so much more nuanced than that including factors such as mother’s metabolic health during pregnancy, chemicals called obesogens, inflammation, hormones, and more.
In this episode, Dr. Hyman speaks with Dr. Elizabeth Boham, Calley Means, and Dr. Casey Means about the obesity crisis, how we got here, and what we can do about it.
Dr. Elizabeth Boham is a physician and nutritionist who practices Functional Medicine at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox, MA.
