Obesity: 100+ Expert Talks
About Obesity
Many people come to DrTalks after years of being told weight is simply about willpower. Cravings that never let up, weight that won't move despite dieting, poor sleep, low energy, and confusion about whether a GLP-1 medication is right for you are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past the scale. Weight is tied to blood sugar and insulin, hormones, inflammation, gut health, stress, sleep and genetics. You'll find conversations on GLP-1 medications and what happens when you stop them, why calories in, calories out falls short, weight loss resistance in women, and the link between sleep apnea and weight. Doctors, obesity medicine specialists and nutrition experts explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from body composition scans and waist-to-hip ratio to metabolic and hormone markers, and what helps, from whole-food eating and more protein to strength training, time-restricted eating, better sleep and steady habit change.
