Sickness With a Side of Fries: The SAD State of U.S. Hospitals | Dr. Roxanne Becker
Americans say there is no place for the likes of McDonald's and Chick-fil-A in hospitals.
The giants of fast food are serving greasy, fatty, artery-clogging foods in the same building where patients are receiving artery-opening stents and pacemakers. Often these lifesaving surgeries are just a floor or two above where the unhealthy combo meals are being served up.
In a way it's like having an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting above a bar. It just doesn't make sense.
Eating fast food four times a week may increase heart disease risk by 80%, according to one study.
So, why is it happening?
Dr. Roxanne Becker joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to talk about the findings of the hospital survey that revealed mounting frustrations with the state of hospital food.
