Abstract
More than 2/3 of the US population is afflicted with either overweight or obesity. Obesity is the cause of over 60 other medical disorders including hospitalizations, illness and other healthcare expenditure. Obesity also either exacerbates, causes or worsens several comorbodities including diabetes, cardiometabolic disease, depression/anxiety and cancers as examples. Despite its medical importance, the medical community continues to inadequately address the disease and treats patients based on the outdated concept of calories in vs carloies out or solely as a behavioral dysfunction. We now know that energy balance is regulated and science has advanced our understandings of metabolic physiology and its relationship to the brain, gut and fat.
