Are We Morally Obliged to Exercise and Eat Healthy? What This Catholic Psychologist Says

Health and fitness are also important for the spiritual life!

On this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, podcast hosts John Heinen and Sam Guzman discuss how “your physical health and wellness” coincide with “development in virtue and growth in holiness” with psychologist Dr. Kevin Vost.

Dr. Vost and the hosts “address the huge rise in diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, liver disease, obesity, and other health-related illnesses in society today.”

“Do we have a moral obligation to take care of ourselves, and what is the correct balance?”
