PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS THEN WATCH BOTH VIDEOS FOR MEDGROUP2–THANKS!
In an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, I (Dr. Hauser) am shifting away from offering in-person group medical visits in my various practices until it is safe to resume them. I am posting some of the educational content I would normally cover in Medgroup Program group visits on the Chef In Medicine website so it is accessible for my patients (and others) online.
The Medgroup Program aims to help those with overweight and obesity to lose weight and be healthier. This post is the second in a series of three posts covering Medgroup Program content. The 2 videos below cover introductions to evidence-based healthy diets for weight loss and behavioral medicine. Behavioral medicine in this context focuses on health behavior changes and how to make them successfully in order to meet your weight loss and health goals. The videos make up much of the educational content offered in the second visit of the Medgroup Program (Medgroup2).
These videos were originally created for Dr. Hauser’s patients in the Medgroup Program at the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. If you are a patient of Dr. Hauser’s at Stanford or elsewhere (or not a patient of Dr. Hauser’s and just watching for educational purposes), please ignore any specific references to the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. Many, but not all, similar resources are available to some degree within other health care clinics and systems.
To cover the educational content for Medgroup2 please watch both videos that follow. This will take you about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
Please note the content in the presentation is not intended to be medical advice outside the context of an established, in-person, patient-doctor relationship.
