Diets for kids and teens: What does the research really say? with Louise Adams, clinical psychologist

Season 2, Episode 45,   Jan 08, 2020, 05:01 AM

We’re joined by the hilarious clinical psychologist and author Louise Adams, who is fired up about changing how society views health, diets, weight loss, and bodies. We discuss “childhood obesity” research, including Louise’s criticisms of an ongoing Australian weight loss trial. Louise also takes us point by point through the research used to justify a weight loss app for children and teens so that parents can evaluate for themselves its claims about diets.
