このコンテンツについて

Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Dr. Mick Crotty, a GP with a keen specialization in obesity medicine. We explore the multifaceted nature of obesity, going beyond the superficial metrics of BMI to consider it as a chronic neuroendocrine disease impacting overall health. Dr. Crotty shares his insights on the societal biases tied to body size and underscores the need for a shift in focus from achieving thinness to improving health. As we navigate this complex topic, we reveal the challenges faced by healthcare professionals, especially in places like Ireland where defined training pathways for obesity medicine specialists are scarce. The episode culminates in a re-evaluation of traditional weight management approaches. From the challenges of maternal health care linked to weight stigma to the promising role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in treating obesity, we discuss the importance of understanding the biological and hormonal underpinnings of weight. Dr. Crotty advocates for a compassionate, individualized approach to obesity, treating it as a chronic illness that requires nuanced care, much like other long-term health conditions. This conversation not only debunks common misconceptions but also offers a fresh perspective on health, emphasizing quality of life over mere numbers on a scale.
