Weight is fiercely moralized and, to many, being heavier is considered a moral failure, he said. Calories in, calories out is not something we can use accurately to assess what would happen to your weight, Singh said. This systemic fatphobia in the medical community is why body mass index continues to be used as a measure of health, despite it being debunked over and over as a valid concept. People with higher weights generally receive a lower quality of care than their smaller peers, and they may even avoid care altogether because doctors make them feel so much shame about their weight. Lets take it as an opportunity to learn about why shame and stigma are wrong and dont work, and how we can do better.
People with higher weights generally receive a higher prices of care than their smaller peers, and they may even avoid care completely.
