Sickness With a Side of Fries: The SAD State of U.S. Hospitals | Dr. Roxanne Becker
The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee - En podcast af Physicians Committee
Americans say there is no place for the likes of McDonald's and Chick-fil-A in hospitals. The giants of fast food are serving greasy, fatty, artery-clogging foods in the same building where patients are receiving artery-opening stents and pacemakers. Often these lifesaving surgeries are just a floor or two above where the unhealthy combo meals are being served up. In a way it's like having an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting above a bar. It just doesn't make sense. Eating fast food four times a week may increase heart disease risk by 80%, according to one study. So, why is it happening? Dr. Roxanne Becker joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to talk about the findings of the hospital survey that revealed mounting frustrations with the state of hospital food. — — SHOW LINKS — — Hospital Fast Food Survey Background: https://bit.ly/PCRMHospitalFoodSurvey Full survey: https://bit.ly/FastFoodHospitals2024 — — — Roxanne Becker, MBChB, DipIBLM Bio: https://www.pcrm.org/about-us/staff/roxanne-becker — — — Free Athlete Nutrition E-Book https://www.pcrm.org/athlete — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip — — THIS IS US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexamroompodcast — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook X: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org X: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/PCRM Jobs: https://www.pcrm.org/careers — — SUBSCRIBE & SHARE — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: https://apple.co/2JXBkpy Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2pMLoY3 Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.
