S02_E11 - Managing the Topic of Weight Management
Currently it's estimated that between 42-45% of Americans are living with overweight or obesity, and that number is expected to rise to around 50% by the year 2030! That'd be half of the U.S. population, and that makes this a very important conversation to be having now.
There are a lot of risks and health hazards associated with overweight and obesity - heart attacks, chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes... the list is long and scary. But is all of this inevitable? What factors play the biggest roles? And what can be done to maintain a healthy weight?
On Episode 11, we'll have an in-depth conversation with Dr. Iesha Galloway-Gilliam, Medical Director of the Comprehensive Weight Management Center at Hennepin Healthcare. We'll discuss the common contributors to this condition, the role of Body Mass Index (BMI) and other calculations and available treatments and important strategies for weight management on this episode of the podcast. Join us!
