Have you wondered why it is harder for some people to lose weight compared to others? Perhaps the answer to your question can be found in this episode! Join us on this final episode of the three-part series on Fighting Obesity as we discuss the biology of obesity with our own Medical Expert Dr. Warren Peters. Dr. Peters is a retired general surgeon and is currently the Medical Director of the Center for Health Promotion at Loma Linda University Health. In this episode, we discuss hot topics on how added sugar, the gut microbiome, and even the Atlantic slave trade contributed to the biology of obesity. Finally, let’s learn how to feed the “gut bugs” by eating foods that are found at the edges of the supermarket.
