Why Homework for Health Was Created
As a physician specializing in the Lipids (Cholesterol Management) field for many years, I’ve seen an increased focus by the healthcare community on helping kids get healthy, especially with childhood obesity rates rising. However, in my Lipidology practice, I struggled with the lack of kid-friendly resources available to me to educate my patients, and I saw the need for more engaging and simplified cholesterol education. This inspired me to start Homework for Health!
