obesity : re-forming the body in global health.
520 A woman with hypertension refuses vegetables. A man with
diabetes adds iron-fortified sugar to his coffee. As death
rates from heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes in Latin
America escalate, global health interventions increasingly
emphasize nutrition, exercise, and weight loss-but much
goes awry as ideas move from policy boardrooms and clinics
into everyday life. Based on years of intensive fieldwork,
The Weight of Obesity offers poignant stories of how
obesity is lived and experienced by Guatemalans who have
recently found their diets-and their bodies-radically
transformed. Anthropologist Emily Yates-Doerr challenges
the widespread view that health can be measured in
calories and pounds, offering an innovative understanding
of what it means to be healthy in postcolonial Latin
America. Through vivid descriptions of how people reject
global standards and embrace fatness as desirable, this
book interferes with contemporary biomedicine, adding
depth to how we theorize structural violence. It is
essential reading for anyone who cares about the politics
of healthy eating.
