Obesogens: Environmental Toxicants - A Blind Spot in Treating the Global Obesity Pandemic
Shanhong Lu, PhD, MD

Obesity is a silent pandemic in parallel to the current COVID-19 pandemic. The continuous rising rate of global trend has been baffling health care professionals as well as wellness-oriented organizations and nutritionists and dietitians. The failure to recognize the main root causes of ‘steady rising’ of metabolic challenges and endocrine disruption has led to the ineffective long term benefit and success of the weight loss programs across the board, not only in midlife and aging people, but also in kids and teenagers. This one-hour seminar will uncover and bring light to this blind spot and a stepwise and scientific sustainable program will be discussed including follow up and maintenance plans.

Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  1. Assess environmental toxicant burdens (top 10 obesogens)
  2. Teach patients how to decrease exposures
  3. Jump start a detox focused weight loss via 10-day, 21-day and 90-day approach
  4. Implement a life-long commitment with periodic reset through key nutritional support
  5. Understand how to watch and manage detox related toxicant redistribution
