Teen levels of physical, mental and social health are historically low. Screens serve as a handy scapegoat, but the fact is we’ve built an extremely hostile public realm. Reverse that trend, and they’ll jump at the chance to get outside, move their bodies and meet their friends.

Controlling parenting isn't good for kids. It puts their well-being at risk. 238 studies, 38 countries, 126k ppl: Kids with controlling parents have higher rates of depression and anxiety. Kids with autonomy-supportive parents are happier. Freedom is a foundation of well-being.

We are SO PROUD to have worked with @CMonteiro_USP and his @NUPENS_USP team since 2018 to bring the #NOVA system to #highschool #Science classrooms as they learn about #foodsystems #nutrition and #biophysics #biochemistry Teach #Wellness
Today, I am pleased to share the stage with Kevin Hall at the opening conference of the 2024 International Congress on Obesity. I will speak on ultra-processed foods (UPF) and the obesity pandemic, while Kevin will discuss the mechanisms linking UPF to overeating.

Only 4 nations in the @OECD have higher infant mortality rates than the USA: Costa Rica, Turkey, Mexico and Colombia. 34 nations have baby death rates lower than the USA -- in some cases more than 3-times lower. Shame on us.

Yes, breaks our hearts too. And it’s why we do place-based #water studies that tackle far more than sampling in our HS science program. The scope of these issues is enormous and touches every community.
The amount of people replying saying that their water looks like this is breaking my heart. So many water issues in this country.

Great infographics with information on how to identify UPFs and reasons for decreasing consumption, how to compose a healthy plate, and tips for reading food labels. These were developed for CKD patients, but are easily adapted for general use. https://t.co/ZCragS7pUR
