I am always looking for new food addiction resources and ran across this one last week. I thought I would share it with you. It is called Food For Life TV. This week’s video is “How Chocolate Can Heal A Broken Heart” – it is not what you think! They have tons of videos in their archives for anyone who wants a healthier diet. Not just food addicts. A wonderful resource made possible from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. I suggest you check them out. They are not interested in selling you any weight loss products!
Now a brief follow up to my last post on fat discrimination. This one is pretty serious as it involves fat discrimination by physicians. The upcoming link includes a rather long video interview from the NBC Today program on an investigative report by Health Magazine that show doctors discriminate against women who are 20 pounds overweight or more. It is debatable to say the least…and they do on the video. Pretty interesting. This could be very serious indeed….but of course this is not a scientific study so it may not be totally reliable. That said it is something women need to know about. In addition, I ran across this article on fat phobia and a physician that was interesting on several levels.
