Show Notes

A new study out today finds that certain genes may raise a child’s risk of obesity. As childhood obesity rates climb, the use of weight loss medications for treating this is surging too. Host Yasmin Vossoughian sits down with Dr. Casey Berman, a pediatric endocrinologist from NYU Langone Health, and one of her teenage patients to talk about the science, the safety, and the growing debate: should children be prescribed these medicines?
