Public Health and Obesity

Jae's Thoughts

In this episode, I talk about the importance of understanding obesity from a public health nutrition perspective. This is something most coaches in the fitness industry are ignorant about.

Hopefully, this episode gets people to think.

Some of the studies I’m referring to:
