Program: Assignment Iowa #108
In the play, "As You Like It," Shakespeare poses the question, "can one desire too much of a good thing?" Clearly, with 1.3 million Iowans overweight or dangerously obese, the answer today is yes. Are we headed for a disaster? And what about our kids -- are we sentencing them to a lifetime of weight-related problems? Assignment Iowa examines these questions and others.
