We live in societies increasingly haunted by an unhealthy obsession with food
In this five-minute video Dr Rick Kausman explains why focusing on weight is making things worse for people in high-income countries.
“People … become obsessed about being a certain number or a certain size or shape and have moved away from taking care of themselves,” he says.
“As a society we have been focusing on the wrong ‘W’. We are focusing on the ‘W’ for weight rather than the ‘W’ for wellbeing.”
This video focuses on these questions:
– What is the constant focus on weight doing to us?
– What is a healthy approach to weight?
– Do people know what ‘healthy eating’ looks like?
