Chronic Disease is Preventable

"Obesity will crush the United States and we will fade in the rear view mirror in oblivion. We could have done something different. We should have done something different. We lacked the moral fiber and love for our children to do the right thing". (Weight of The Nation, part 3)


"What a tragedy, after all of these years of building up our healthcare in a circumstance where people are saved from premature disability and death, we can turn that all around. We can lose all of those gains. Do you want your children and your grandchildren to inherit a society where their hopes for a long and healthy life are not not even as good as your are? That can't be the right thing to do". ("The Weight of The Nation" HBO miniseries part 3)
