SUMMARY:Cambridge Festival - What does research tell us about maintaining a healthy weight?
DESCRIPTION:Live NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) webinar for the Cambridge Festival: What does research tell us about maintaining a healthy weight? \nHave you ever wondered why some people have a large appetite and never gain weight\, while others try to eat healthily but find it difficult to lose the pounds? Can health research unlock the secrets on to how to maintain a healthy weight? \nBeing overweight is a major health problem in the UK\, it is estimated 1 in every 4 adults and around 1 in every 5 children aged 10 to 11 are living with obesity. It can lead to health conditions such as diabetes\, heart disease\, problems with bone health and can increase the risk of some cancers. \nCambridge researchers are working to understanding how overweight affects our health and how we can maintain a healthy balance. \nHear from Professor Nick Wareham\, Director of the MRC Epidemiology Unit\, Co-Director of the Institute of Metabolic Science\, Honorary Consultant at Addenbrooke’s Hospital and Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Cambridge and Dr Amy Ahern\, Programme leader & Principal research associate for the prevention of diabetes and related metabolic disorders in high-risk groups.
