As you know, I expect my life's work to be related to the prevention of obesity as it causes chronic disease and that chronic disease is affecting ever younger populations. Recently I alerted you to a new program or service that the CDC was implementing called Vital Signs. Each month they choose a topic and highlight the amount of that disease in the population and what can be done to prevent and or treat it. This month it is adult obesity and though I plan to read every word, I don't have the leisure to summarize and pontificate for you. Instead, I offer you the link, trust you will visit it and in your head hear my voice on certain pertinent points!
