Dear friends and colleagues,
Please join us on Thursday, May 19 at 9am PT/12pm ET/6pm CET for a CHE EDC Strategies Partnership webinar on Obesogens and the Obesity Pandemic: A focus on prevention. Register here!
According to the World Health Organization, obesity prevalence has almost tripled since 1975 with more than 1.9 billion adults, 340 million children ages 5-19, and 39 million children under 5 years of age estimated to be overweight or obese. During this webinar Robert H. Lustig, MD, MSL, Jerry J. Heindel, PhD, and Chris Kassotis, PhD, will discuss findings of a set of newly published reviews on the impact of obesogens and how reducing exposure to these hormone disrupting chemicals found in consumer and industrial products like makeup, shampoos, soaps, plastics, cleaners, pesticides, food packaging, and more play a critical role in preventing obesity.
This webinar will be moderated by Génon Jensen, Executive Director of Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL). It will last for 70 minutes and will be recorded for our call and webinar archive.
This webinar series is sponsored by the EDC Strategies Partnership. The EDC Strategies Partnership is co-chaired by Sharyle Patton (Commonweal Biomonitoring Resource Center), Jerry Heindel (Commonweal HEEDS, Healthy Environment and Endocrine Disruptor Strategies), Genon Jensen (HEAL, Health and Environment Alliance), Sarah Howard (HEEDS and the Commonweal Diabetes and Environment Program), and Hannah Donart (Commonweal CHE, Collaborative on Health and the Environment).
