Today weâre discussing fat.
Itâs a word that carries a lot of weight. Itâs a source of social judgment, a driver of insecurities and a tool exploited by companies in targeted marketing campaigns. Itâs no surprise that a recent study found over 40% of people in the US have experienced some form of âfat-shamingâ.
But do we really understand fat? What it does, how it forms and why its distribution changes as we age.
Prof. Sarah Berry and Prof. Deborah Clegg are here to help us answer some of these questions and change our perception of fat. Deborah Clegg is a professor and Vice President for Research at the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, El Paso. Sarah is Chief Scientist at ZOE and Professor at Kingâs College London.
