Living Better: NPR's Fresh Series
NPR has launched a new series called Living Better, which investigates the causes of America's poor health and what can be done about it. The series will cover environmental causes, community solutions, individual tips, and medical breakthroughs. The first several stories focus on childhood health, including new treatments for childhood obesity, the impact of social media on kids' health, and the effects of ultraprocessed foods on kids' diets. The series aims to highlight successes in improving people's health outcomes and lives, and share new good ideas and smart policies that deserve to be funded.
