Kate (Fairley on the boards) and her doctor Dr. Ted Friedman, were featured on the National Geographic channel. The show, called the Science of Obesity, has a segment on Cushing's syndrome. Today, 127 million adult Americans are considered overweight, but few reach the extreme proportions of the exceptionally obese. What are the physical stresses of weighing more than 500 pounds and what steps can reverse it? NGC provides an understanding of what happens inside the bodies of these massive people & why a person can pack on hundreds more pounds than those with typical weight challenges. The show explores the genetics behind weight gain & medical advances available to help prevent it. I hope that all of you can watch this. Please consider contacting your local media about doing your story! There is still much work to do to increase Cushing's awareness. Robin submitted the Cushing's segment for us. less
