Given the spirited threads that the issue of obesity, diet, exercise, etcetera has inspired in the past, I thought I would pass this along. The information, or perhaps only the way it is so cogently presented, is quite new to me and I thought it might be helpful.
This fellow, Bruce Blumberg PhD, is looking at some environmental factors in obesity and it is fascinating stuff. The first link is a brief radio conversation in advance of his presentation at Colby College here in Maine tomorrow and provides a nice overview. The second is his presentation on "obesogens" much of which is quite technical but I found it worth the wading. The third link is to Blumberg's home page. Click on "endocrine disruptors". Again, I found this stuff fascinating and I hope it helps expand our views, whether we struggle with weight issues or not.
