study guide will be used for the discussion.

Would you impose government regulations on Americans, school menus, purchases,
restaurants, obese patients, etc? Would you immediately alter the government agencies
that issue dietary recommendations and have them show a united front of information to
fight diabetes? What would that information be?
Would you intervene in the medical practices now used, including medications and
dietary interventions, to alter the current standards of care for obesity and diabetes? If so,
how would you influence them?
Would you make any changes to schools regarding required physical education? What
types of changes?
Are there incentives you would give to people, television producers, the food industry, or
others in order to influence the sociological changes needed to turn this epidemic around?
