S1E48: There is no food that tastes better than my health with Kim Williams MD, Professor and Chair, Department of Medicine University of Louisville and host Dr. Nick.

Prior to the 1970s the obesity rate of our population remained fairly steady but increased sharply in the ensuing decades. Currently close to half the population is overweight or obese. We have a problem, a big problem and it is getting bigger. So what can we do and how should we approach nutrition and health? The science and the evidence are clear – we need to change our diets and reduce the amount of sodium or salt, reduce saturated fat and reduce the amount of cholesterol we consume. This is not a one-size-fits-all and as you will hear, we need to meet the patient where they are, which varies widely.

Your better pill to swallow is to focus on the food and nutrition you are eating and help provide your staff and your patients with both the information, knowledge, and choices to help them select good nutritional options and set them on a path to a healthier life.
