Childhood obesity is one of the most pressing public health challenges of our time — and its long-term cardiovascular and metabolic consequences make it essential territory for lipidologists and clinicians alike.
In this episode of Lipid Insights, host Peter H. Jones, MD, MNLA sits down with Casey Berman, MD to explore the full picture: how childhood obesity is defined, why its prevalence continues to rise, and the behavioral, societal, and genetic factors fueling the epidemic. They also dive into associated comorbidities and the latest prevention and management strategies — from lifestyle modifications and pharmacotherapy to the evolving role of bariatric and metabolic surgery.
A must-listen for any clinician looking to better support their youngest patients.
