Howard Koh, MD, MPH, Assistant Secretary for Health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, addresses a group of over 200 health care leaders, policy makers, community and business leaders on the need to re-shape nutrition and physical environments to support healthy behaviors. According to Koh, physical activity has been all but engineered out of our lives. Reflecting on this topic through a national lens, Dr. Koh detailed large-scale federal priorities intended to alleviate the challenges of behavior change where Americans "live, labor, learn, play and pray."
