Miami, Florida(Hexa PR Wire–October 9, 2025)–Dr. Evan P. Nadler, pediatric surgeon, obesity researcher, and former co-director of the Children’s National Obesity Programs, joined The Michael Peres Podcast to examine the origins of America’s obesity crisis and practical ways to address it. The episode traced his early “aha moment” that launched a 25-year focus on childhood obesity and covered how ultra-processed foods, hidden sugars, and intergenerational factors contribute to metabolic risk.
Nadler outlined why childhood obesity differs biologically and socially from adult obesity, discussed epigenetic evidence that parental diet can influence future health, and dissected common myths around “healthy” packaged foods such as yogurt and cereal. He emphasized early education, clear labeling, and stigma-free guidance as core tools for families and communities.
