'Obesity: Do We Even Have A Slim Chance?' - MAJ Goes To Root Causes

Jamaica's growing obesity problem comes under the microscope during this year's Medical Association of Jamaica (MAJ) symposium, which will run from Sunday, June 3, to Sunday, June 10.

'Obesity: Do we even have a slim chance?' is the theme for the three-day conference, where a number of scientific papers will examine the physical, emotional, psychological and financial challenges of obesity. There will also be a focus on healthy eating, as well as healthy lifestyles, in conjunction with the Ministry of Health's Jamaica Moves campaign.
