The answer to #obesity cannot be for individuals — IF they have the money, education & access, which is a big if — to make 100 difficult but healthy decisions each day, against their biological & economic incentives. We must make health easy! And this takes policy! #BCFNforum

Thank you @ellenTraneNorby for joining our #UNGA event to address misconceptions around #obesity @KulikovUNIATF @jackefisher @NCDChild @lund_niels @bowes @CandeiasV
So, what are the biggest misconceptions of Obesity? Why not listen to @EllenTraneNorby explain it's not just individual responsibility; there is so much more to #obesity than that! "Let's tackle obesity together". #UNGA #HLM3
