Obesity is killing our patients and draining our healthcare resources. The First Amendment is an available tool to reverse the tragic state of our nation's health. Through educational programs, across all economic, educational, and cultural stratifications of our society, emphasizing the importance of diet and exercise, we can reverse the tragic physical, emotional, and health consequences of obesity. This must be a physician-led strategy that empowers patients across all age groups to be personally responsible for their personal health.
肥胖正在夺走我们患者的生命，并耗尽我们的医疗资源。《第一修正案》是扭转我们国家健康悲剧状况的可用工具。通过在我们社会的所有经济、教育和文化阶层开展教育项目，强调饮食和锻炼的重要性，我们可以扭转肥胖带来的悲惨身体、情感和健康后果。这必须是一项由医生主导的战略，使所有年龄段的患者都有能力为自己的个人健康承担个人责任。
