Perspectives from United Kingdom and United States Policy Makers on Obesity Prevention: Workshop Summary
by Institute of Medicine of the National AcademiesBoth the United Kingdom and United States are grappling with nationwide epidemics of obesity. Obesity contributes to diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers, among other diseases. Although many people are aware of obesity's causes and consequences, few see it as a problem for their own families--despite clinical evidence to the contrary. Given this disconnect between perception and reality, policy makers in both countries struggle to find a way to reach people to encourage change. The IOM brought together policy makers from the U.K. and U.S. for a workshop on October 22, 2009, to discuss the challenges of and promising approaches to the struggle against obesity. Presenters spoke about current policies, programs, and partnerships that are addressing the obesity epidemic and evidence for effective strategies to change perception and behaviors. The workshop, summarized in this document, provided an opportunity for both countries to learn from each other's efforts and to consider how to apply new strategies at home.

Pescan: A Feel Good Cookbook
by Abbie Cornish Jacqueline King SchillerA cookbook of pescatarian, dairy-free recipes for healthy eating, inspired by macrobiotic and Mediterranean diets—includes photos. Actress Abbie Cornish and chef Jacqueline King are best friends who bonded over their love of food and self-care. A few years ago, Abbie, a novice cook, asked Jacqueline, a graduate of the culinary program at the National Gourmet Institute, for cooking lessons. Every Sunday, they would take trips to the local farmers&’ market, spend all day cooking, and then serve these dishes to their family and friends. Pescan is an extension of this tradition and all the food they explored together. Their way of eating—which they call pescan—is centered on plant-based, dairy-free dishes, but with high-protein seafood and eggs incorporated. The recipes, like Veggie Tempeh Bolognese, Artichoke Hummus with Za&’atar, and Miso-Ginger Glazed Black Cod, are highly nutrient dense, incredibly energizing, and very accessible. Pescan is a collection of healthy recipes, but it&’s also a story of friendship, healing, and developing a more positive relationship with food.
Pese lo que pese: Contra la hegemonía del cuerpo ideal
by Jesica Lavia Paula GiménezDesde una mirada feminista, Jesica Lavia, nutricionista, y Paula Giménez, periodista especializada en género, reflexionan sobre cómo el culto al "cuerpo ideal" y la obsesión por el peso despliegan dietas "milagrosas" e instalaron una "dictadura de la belleza" de la cual parece difícil escapar y cuyas víctimas principales y más visibles son las mujeres. «Queremos -dicen las autoras- que todas las feminidades podamos habitarnos un poco más amorosamente. Les hablamos a las gordas, las gorditas, las rellenitas, las flacas, las escuálidas, las petisas, las altas, las culonas, las caderonas, las tetonas y las chatas. A todas ellas y a nosotras mismas».
