Introduction to Nutritional Psychology: The Evolution of Food and Mood
Presented by Christopher Case, MD
The understanding of the pathophysiology of obesity continues to evolve as well as new tools for treatment, including medications. Despite new therapies, many patients do not meet goals, have side effects with treatments or have inappropriate weight regain. This presentation will highlight the benefits of using meal replacement products with these new therapies as well as most patients across the spectrum of obesity treatments.
Learning Objectives Include:
- Review the foundation of obesity management
- Review the safety and efficacy of the Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) in obesity management
- Review the role and effective use of meal replacement products in all aspects of obesity management
