New Medicine: Dr. Elson Haas

The health of our young people is particularly important because bad habits learned early can have disastrous short-term and long-term consequences, as we see with the alarming rates of childhood obesity and early onset diabetes. Therefore a key passion is to teach young people to caring for the one and only body they each possess, with love and respect. Teaching children about how their bodies work and how to take care of themselves by making nourishing choices and learning the difference between real food and treats is critically important work for each of us as individuals and as a society.
