Kathy Freston, author of vegan diet and health book The Lean, appeared on HLN’s Issues with Jane Velez-Mitchell to discuss how adopting a vegan lifestyle can help combat obesity, a disease one researcher has predicted will affect 32 more million people within two decades.

Although there’s no one cure for the disease, Freston suggests something as simple as an apple a day may keep the pounds away.
