The Weight of the Nation
Bringing together the nation's leading research institutions, The Weight of the Nation is a presentation of HBO and the Institute of Medicine (IOM), in association with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institutes of Health, and in partnership with the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation and Kaiser Permanente.
The films follow the IOM's latest report, Accelerating Progress in Obesity Prevention: Solving the Weight of the Nation, which articulates the most promising solutions to our obesity crisis. These films document the state of the problem, including how we got here and what we must do to solve it.
Part I: Consequences and Part II: Choices will air May 14, beginning at 8 p.m. EDT.
Part III: Children in Crisis and Part IV: Challenges will air May 15, beginning at 8 p.m. EDT.
HBO has asked its carriers to open their channels, allowing the films to be viewed by non-HBO subscribers. The films will also be available May 14-15 at www.hbo.com/weightofthenation.
