76th Annual Mary Swartz Rose Memorial Lecture

Featuring David L. Katz MD MPH FACPM FACP FACLM

Knowing What to Eat: Refusing to Swallow it

May 5, 2016
5:30 PM - 8:30 PM
New York, NY

Location:

Mount Sinai Medical Center
Hatch Auditorium
1468 Madison Avenue, at 101st Street

Guggenheim Pavilion, 2nd Floor

New York, NY

Speaker:

David L. Katz, MD, MPH, FACPM, FACP, FACLM

Dr. David L. Katz, MD, MPH, FACPM, FACP, FACLM is the founding director (1998) of Yale University's Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center, and current President of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. He is recognized globally for expertise in nutrition, weight management and the prevention of chronic disease. Dr. Katz has published roughly 200 scientific articles and several textbook chapters, and 15 books to date. In 2015, Dr. Katz established the True Health Initiative to help convert what we know about lifestyle as medicine into what we do about it, in the service of adding years to lives and life to years around the globe.

Lecture will Address:

This talk will look closely at the body of evidence relating dietary pattern and human health and make the case that we are NOT clueless about the basic care and feeding of our species. Endless debate about the details of optimal diets, and an insatiable pop culture fascination with scapegoats and silver bullets – distract us from the well-known fundamentals of healthful eating, and forestall the stunning advances in public health that would ensue were we to turn what we know into what we do. The discussion will cover some of the most salient controversies about diet and health, and will demonstrate that past the din and discord, there is an evidence-based, consensus-based set of reliable principles we know full well- but can’t get people to swallow. Solutions to this problem will be proposed.
