Podcasts about BMI

This episode is brought to you by Joi & Blokes, Troscriptions, and Caldera Lab. In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, registered dietitian Ashley Koff, RD breaks down the truth behind GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, reframing them not as magic weight-loss shots but as hormone replacement therapies that reveal how dysfunctional most people's "weight-health hormones" have become. Ashley shares how digestion, nutrient status, genetics, and modern environmental pressures diminish the body's natural ability to regulate appetite, cravings, metabolism, and fat distribution — and why GLP-1 drugs can offer clarity but not a cure unless the underlying issues are addressed. She dives into muscle preservation, the limitations of BMI, the importance of fat-mass vs. scale weight, the root-cause approach to sustainable weight health, and what the future of GLP-1s means for generational wellness. This is a powerful conversation that blends science, personal insight, and actionable strategies to improve metabolic health — with or without medication.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor answer listener questions about BMI cutoffs, weight cycling, metabolic adaptation, trauma, GLP-1 differences, and why some people gain weight on ultra-low calories. Dr. Cooper explains what's really happening inside the metabolic system and why individualized treatment—not dieting—creates sustainable change.Key Questions AnsweredIf my BMI doesn't “qualify” for GLP-1s, is Naltrexone + Bupropion helpful—and what labs matter first?Does being overweight always indicate metabolic dysfunction, and why are U.S. rates so high?If diets damage metabolism, what do you do when you're already 80 pounds overweight?How long does it take for leptin and ghrelin to stabilize with mechanical eating?How can someone gain weight on 1,200 calories/day?After sleeve gastrectomy, how do you eat enough while on a GLP-1?Is set point theory real—and how does the melanocortin pathway influence it?If obesity runs in my family, will I need meds like Zepbound for life?How do trauma and stress alter long-term metabolic health?Can GLP-1s offset weight gain from steroids, mood meds, or hormones?Why might Ozempic work well while Mounjaro causes weight gain?Key Takeaways1. BMI rules don't reflect metabolic truth.A mid-20s BMI can still mask significant dysfunction, especially with weight cycling.2. Weight cycling is metabolically stressful.Repeated losses/regains increase visceral fat, insulin abnormalities, and cardiovascular risk.3. Obesity is a multi-hormonal disease.Most people need pharmacology plus sleep, fueling, and movement—not restrictive dieting.4. Metabolic adaptation is powerful.Under-fueling lowers thyroid output, suppresses fat-burning, and slows metabolism dramatically.5. After bariatric surgery or on GLP-1s, frequency matters.Frequent, nutrient-dense snacks protect muscle, metabolism, and energy.6. Set point changes with better signaling.GLP-1s and related therapies help the brain accurately detect weight and lower the defended level.7. Genetics often mean lifelong support.Family patterns of obesity usually indicate long-term need for metabolic medication.8. Trauma amplifies metabolic risk.Childhood trauma disrupts IGF-1, sleep, stress hormones, insulin, leptin, and ghrelin.9. Medications can cause weight gain—GLP-1s can help counteract it.Steroids, mood meds, hormonal agents, and more can be metabolically unfriendly.10. “Newer” isn't always better.Some people respond poorly to the GIP component in Mounjaro/Zepbound. Individual physiology rules.Dr. Cooper's Actionable TipsRequest deeper evaluation: DEXA, visceral fat, fasting insulin/glucose, leptin, reproductive hormones.Stop restrictive dieting permanently—mechanical eating protects metabolic stability.Work with a fueling-focused dietitian (often ED-trained).Review your medication list for drugs known to cause weight gain.Don't switch GLP-1s or chase higher doses if your current regimen works.Notable Quote“Obesity isn't a willpower problem. It's a metabolic disease, and when the underlying system is supported, the body finally has permission to change.” — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: Fat Science Podcast WebsiteSubmit a Show Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comDr. Emily Cooper on LinkedInMark Wright on LinkedInAndrea Taylor on InstagramFat Science is your source for breaking diet myths and advancing the science of true metabolic health.

On each of these mini episodes, Catherine and I chat about a new article or new surgical technique in the field of sports medicine. We'll give you our quick take on the most recent data and how this data will impact our practice. Today, we're discussing a brand-new paper hot off the press titled: “Predictors of Tunnel Widening After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction” published in the November 2025 issue of AJSM. This study digs into why femoral and tibial tunnels enlarge after ACL reconstruction with hamstring grafts – and what anatomic and surgical factors might be driving it.Tunnel widening matters: it impacts revision surgery, graft stability, and in some cases early failures. So, this is a clinically meaningful topic. We will start with some background. Tunnel widening after ACL reconstruction is not new…but why it happens is debated. There are a few proposed mechanisms:·       Biologic factors: synovial fluid ingress, cytokines, graft necrosis, remodeling.·       Mechanical factors: graft motion (“windshield wiper” / “bungee effect”), repetitive shear.·       Anatomic factors: posterior tibial slope increasing anterior tibial translation forces.·       Surgical factors: fixation method, tunnel position, graft choice (hamstring vs BTB or Quad). This study asked three key questions:1.     Does posterior tibial slope (PTS) predict tunnel widening?2.     Do meniscus root tears contribute?3.     Does adding a lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) influence tunnel change? ·       This is the first large cohort looking at all these together over 2 years, with both tibial and femoral tunnel measurements. ·       The study included 307 patients who underwent primary ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft. The femoral and tibial tunnels were measured immediately postop and again at 2 years.  Medial and lateral posterior tibial slope was measured on long-leg lateral radiographs.  The authors also looked at the incidence of additional LET, meniscus root injury and BMI.·       They used univariate and multivariate regression to determine independent predictors.So, what did they find? Tune in and enjoy the episode!

This playlist is 65% vinyl friendly. Very poor. Scorchio! ‘1960/1970 Vintage Stereo Design Record Player, in bright orange, the emblematic colour of the 1960 and an example of Mod Ultra Space Age Pop Art Raymond Loewy? France French Designer Museum-worthy‘ says the Etsy seller, adding ‘It has a few cracks, one of the speakers has a small tear in the cloth and may need an overhaul, a full check up to see how and if it works and if it is complete… WE HAVE NEVER TRIED TO USE IT AND I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WORKS OR PLAYS.‘ Thank flip it’s down to €4600, from €7100. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. And a bit of a croak in my voice here and there. A temporary glitch, hopefully. Lyric of Playlist 146 Trickery involved but it has to be The Bots! 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Ruined In A Day (Reading Festival, 1993) – In Concert – 577, CD – BBC Transcription – 1993 I and my four-year-old, Alice were there, on what was a triumphant return, with the wonderful ‘Ruined’ in amongst new numbers from the band’s then recently released Republic album nobody would have previously heard in a live setting. BBC Transcription Services recordings – produced to service radio stations and usually for a very limited time frame for broadcast – had moved from vinyl to CD but with runs still only in their low hundreds New Order completists would be struggling to own a copy of this one… and I don’t. 04.42 MERIC LONG – A Small Act Of Defiance – Kablooey, LP – Polyvinyl Record Company – 2025 Book-ending a bunch of releases through the years as a member of The Dodos, Kablooey is seemingly Long’s first solo release under his own name since 2006. 07.43 BIOCHEMICAL DREAD – False Kings Of The Earth – 12″ – Pulsolid – 2004 Besides his work with Cabaret Voltaire this 12″ demonstrates there are gaps in my knowledge of Richard H. Kirk’s lengthy discography elsewhere. A copy of ‘False Kings… ‘ however is currently heading my way. RIP, Richard. 13.21 DARKSIDE – One Last Nothing – Download only – Matador – 2025 Including a past member of the 41 Rooms playlist parish, Nicolas Jaar, a US trio currently NOT releasing a 12″, though their Bandcamp visual hints otherwise. 18.32 AGENTS WITH FALSE MEMORIES – Agents With False Memories (extract), CD only – Ash International / Soleilmoon Recordings – 1996 Extract, indeed as Richard H. Kirk promptly returns to show 146 with this four minute snippet from a 53 minute track. 22.34 HUMANIZER – Shinobi – ? – ? – 2000s? Ignoring the slight Liam Gallagher drawl and with zero connection to any Death Metal band of the same name, this might have been Manchester sourced… and maybe with a Peter Hook connection. That’s what I’m vaguely remembering… from over a decade ago. Dunno… A ‘demo’ version, minus vocals, might also get an outing here at some point. 27.08 DIFFERENT GEAR – A Little Bit Paranoid (Extended Mix) * – 12″ – City Rockers – 2002 Courtesy of a ‘Phil Dirtbox’, the vocal is the winner here. 32.59 MERZ – Sorrow In The Sky (Nightingale Vs The Crow) – 7″ b-side – Lotus Records – 2002 The stuff that people sing about… and here with gusto and passion, to boot! 36.55 LUSCIOUS JACKSON – Why Do I Lie? (Sessions at 54th, 11.97) – Stream only – 1997 Vocalist, Jill Cunniff’s tale of lying sounding best live! 40.13 THE POPPY FAMILY – I Was Wondering – 7″ – London – 1971 A bit of a strange arrangement, this one. Albeit with a key change in there – verses with no choruses! Weird and wonderful… and maybe a bit brave in the pop world of the early ’70s, where the only PF track I remember hearing as a young teen was Which Way Are You Going Billy? That won’t be getting a 41 Rooms spin. 42.43 SOPHIE JAMIESON – Camera – I Still Want To Share, LP – Bella Union – 2025 Being over in Brighton recently it seemed appropriate I buy her clear vinyl album from the Bella Union shop and re Camera? It’s the subtle build in Sophie’s vocal and she’ll be here again at some point. 46.59 MARTYN BATES – The Rhyme Of Miracles – Arriving Fire, CD only – Ambivalent Scale – 2014 Martyn instils presence in a tune like few others for me. 50.28 JOSE FELICIANO – First Of May – 7″ b-side – RCA – 1969 ‘Feliciano seems to be on a heavy Bee Gees kick… after ‘Marley Purt Drive,’ he now does ‘First Of May’ and ‘Gotta Get A Message To You.’ And with his highly stylised projection, Jose manages to make them sound totally removed from anything the Gibb brothers originated’. – Disc (edited review of the album, 10 to 23), 15.11.69. As far as I know the Bee Gees tune was only ever released on a 7″ (my ‘format of choice’) for Jose in Mexico, New Zealand, Philippines and Spain and never as an A-side and arranger, Al Capps most probably winced if he ever got to see the NZ pressing below. Strangely, Jose’s very rarely performed the song live. I’ve only noted it three times, including two at London’s Jazz Cafe, in 1996 and again in 1998 and at the former it surfaced nearly under duress. With the audience (maybe unsurprisingly) constantly shouting out for past JF favourites Jose countered, ‘You know there’s a lot of songs you people ask me for that unfortunately… and I’m not being rude, a lot of artists are rude, they do it on purpose, but some of the songs that you ask me to sing, do you know that I haven’t sung them in years and I’ve forgotten the words and rather than make an ass out of myself that’s why I don’t sing them, OK? So, don’t take it personal… I don’t sing those songs anymore. But I’ll tell you what though there’s some that you ask for that I do remember, like this one. I hope that this one will satisfy you.’ That rare sighting was even more surprising considering Jose had taken the rare move of including his own recording of the song when guesting on Brian Matthew’s My Top Twelve for BBC Radio 1 back in June 1974. 54.11 JAPAN – Alien – Quiet Life, LP – Ariola Hansa – 1980 Bedford: Heronscroft, Putnoe, 1980 and Winkles, 1981… with a few Japan gigs thrown in at the time. 58.47 JOHN CALE – Chinese Envoy (M:FANS) – M: FANS, 2 LP – Double Six – 2016 ‘Approached as a reinterpretation of Cale's 1982 improvisational album, Music for a New Society… M:FANS is something of a funhouse mirror reflection of that work, using the basic song-structures of the original album as a starting point and using time, experience and the technological advances of the ensuing years to bring a new focus to the tunes. Some selections are comfortably familiar, while others have a significantly different footprint‘. – KCRW 01.02.32 ICEHOUSE – No Promises (Dance Mix) * – 12″ – Chrysalis – 1990 Fully five years after the track had seemingly done its thing it got an extended outing in Spain. 01.07.58 DAVID BOWIE – This Is Not America (BBC concert) – Bowie At The Beeb, 2CD – EMI – 2000 Part of Bowie’s special set for a small invited audience at the BBC’s Radio Theatre, in London, June 2000. 01.11.29 JOHNNY KEATING – Theme from Z-Cars (Johnny Todd) – 7″ – Piccadilly – 1962 Did I realise the grittier scripts involved here than had been delivered by Jack Warner’s strolling forerunner, Dixon Of Dock Green? Nah, I was five when Z-Cars kicked off but the theme (based on the traditional folk song, Johnny Todd) still brings a fuzzy feel. And Wikipedia will give you the full story on why Everton FC players come out to the tune at home games. 01.13.22 MARC COHN – ‘Walking in Memphis (Mahna Mahna)’ – Stream only – 1990’s? Cohn definitely wouldn’t have seen this coming, as the self proclaiming Mahna Mahna and the Snowths duo upstage him in a short but cheeky mashup (of sorts) I happened on via Youtube a couple of decades ago. I’ll openly admit I was a Muppets fan when they first aired on UK TV back in the mid ’70s and with Statler & Waldorf the stars for me I remember walking my girlfriend of the time, Jill home from work and then running up the hill to my house to record the show. Pre the age of video recorders, at one point there was a stack of ten to twenty AGFA(!!) cassette tapes of the shows in my bedroom. Getting back to Cohn, the fact he’s ‘racing’ a bit here actually adds to the cheeriness and I salute whoever was involved. 01.14.44 BERNARD CRIBBINS – The Hole In The Ground – 7″ – Parlophone – 1962 And like the Z-Cars theme I was five when this was released and I’d have definitely been singing this one in the years close after – and weirdly, although it’s the second tune from ’62 on this show, it’s not the last. 01.16.27 THE BOTS – Fuzzy Math – George W. Bush Greatest Hits, v/artists, CDr only – Spin The World – 2004 I heard this cut and paste work of art somewhere around its ‘release’ and as of 2004… ‘… utilizing the revolutionary Presidential Truth Filter(PTF). The PTF operates like this: All presidential statements are recorded, and made into a huge database. The database is searchable by speech, phrase, keyword, emotional intensity, etc. In parallel, an analysis is made of the historical circumstances of the particular presidency. The question must be asked, what is this man (all men so far…) really all about? What is a defining characteristic of this presidency? The final question which must be addressed by the PTF is, how can we use the assets in the database to concatenate the truth, and make the President speak it? The first attempt was Bushwack, in 1992. This turned into a huge hit before the Presidential election in 1992, though BMI denied that it was ever on the air at all. Through October of that year, stations such as San Francisco’s Live105 were playing it almost hourly. In 1997 Rock The House was a popular download at an early digital music download startup, muzic.com. In 2003 Bushwack2 was released at about the start of the Iraq war. The mood of the song is quite grim, as the truth of those times was interpreted by the PTF. In 2004, the PTF was reprogrammed to emphasize economics and general silliness, and Fuzzy Math was born. We think it’s the best one yet. Judge the results for yourself’. – thebots.net 01.19.26 DREXCIYA – Black Sea – The Journey Home, 12″ EP – Warp – 1995 First heard on either of Colin Faver’s or Colin Dale’s techno shows on KISS FM. Sounds more likely it was the former. 01.24.58 E-DANCER – Heavenly * – 12″ – KMS – 1997 The Inner City (‘Big Fun’) man, Kevin Saunderson with his techno head on. 01.28.51 CHARLES WEBSTER – Your Life * – 12″ – Peacefrog – 2000 Pitched up a bit (‘+3%’ says my file iD) this is a class slice of soulful techno/house. 01.33.11 CHARLOTTE DAY WILSON – Selfish – Download only – Stone Woman Music – 2025 This r&b musician has been around for a decade or so but I wouldn’t have guessed, judging by this slight departure to a ’90s UK garage feel (first half anyway). It suits her. 01.36.48 BENCH – Felice – Bliss, 2LP – Cylinder Recordings – 2000 The fifth appearance on 41 Rooms to date for this pretty much forgotten duo. 01.39.36 BLUE STATES – Your Girl – 12″ EP – Memphis Industries – 1999 First heard on a compilation CD a mate of mine, Sid put together, of fave tracks forwarded by mates of his. Not their own tracks, you understand. 01.43.45 THE MIRACLES – I’ll Try Something New – 7″ – Tamla – 1962 Hellfire! Those breakdown strings mid way are a bit of a jolt! Easy, Smokey! Writer, Robinson’s own version is actually the third to make it to 41 Rooms and his vocal arrangement sounds more like a remake than either Kiki Dee’s ‘straighter’ take or even the Supremes and Temptations stab at the song, when chronologically they both followed this Miracles single. 01.46.14 SMITH & MUDD – Blue River – 2LP – Claremont 56 – 2007 Electronic… downtempo… shuffling… drifting… or maybe flowing. 01.48.38 MERZ – A.M. (Good Morning) * – Single-sided, white label 12″ only – 1995 The second artist to return this show, multi instrumentalist and songwriter, Conrad Merz and his at times very idiosyncratic vocal (‘Many Weathers Apart’, for instance) seem to have trodden their own path through the years. 01.53.45 CRAIG ARMSTRONG (feat ELIZABETH FRASER) – This Love (& The Life That I Have) * – 41 Rooms Soft Mash Up only – Early 2000s I grabbed the extra voice – Virginia McKenna as Second World War spy Violette Szabo, reading the code poem The Life That I Have at the end of the film Carve Her Name With Pride – fully thirty plus years ago and I had a stab at floating it over This Love a long time ago but recently had another go. Aided by Jazz The Glass, we pitched her down slightly and then I took out a chunk of the poem in the second half. Not that it’s going to happen but I reckon it would need the song itself re-arranged/edited to work perfectly but methinks the idea is still a cool one. Show 147 hopefully surfaces Jan 4.

Most independent artists have thousands of dollars in unclaimed royalties sitting in four separate collection systems—and a four-year window to recover this money before it's redistributed to major labels.   In this episode, I break down the systematic framework for conducting a personal royalty audit. You'll discover why being registered with ASCAP, BMI, or SESAC isn't enough, and learn about the three additional systems most artists don't know exist: SoundExchange for digital performance royalties, publishing administration services for worldwide mechanical collection, and the Mechanical Licensing Collective for streaming platform royalties.   I'll walk you through the five-step implementation process: auditing your current registrations, gathering documentation, registering with missing systems, claiming historical royalties, and creating an ongoing management system to prevent future losses.   This framework builds on insights from music business educator Amani Roberts in Episode 339, where he reveals how artists consistently leave money on the table through incomplete registrations and missing split sheet documentation.   Topics Covered: The four registration systems required to collect all your royalties How unclaimed royalties are redistributed to major labels after four years How to verify you're registered correctly with your PRO (writer AND publisher sides) SoundExchange registration for Pandora, iHeartRadio, and SiriusXM royalties Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC) free registration process When publishing administration services are worth the cost Split sheet documentation as the foundation for royalty collection Metadata management across all four systems Common mistakes that cause royalties to go unclaimed Step-by-step audit process with time estimates Creating an ongoing system to prevent future unclaimed royalties   December is the perfect time for this year-end financial cleanup—start recovering money you've already earned.

In this episode of GynoCurious, Dr. Amy Novatt welcomes registered dietician and longevity expert Renee Fitton for an in-depth conversation about the intersection of nutrition, health, and longevity. Together, they explore the complexities of healthy eating, the limitations of traditional metrics like BMI, and the importance of considering holistic lifestyle factors such as sleep, activity, and community in the pursuit of wellbeing. Renee shares her professional journey, highlighting her work in nutrition science and her advocacy for evidence-based approaches to health. The discussion delves into the latest research on fasting, including the concept of fasting mimicking diets, which offer the benefits of fasting while still allowing for food intake. Renee explains the physiological effects of fasting, the science behind autophagy, and the potential for these practices to improve metabolic health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. The episode also addresses practical considerations, such as who should and shouldn't try fasting mimicking diets, the role of commercial programs like ProLon and L-Nutra, and the importance of working with knowledgeable clinicians when considering weight loss medications. Listeners are encouraged to approach their health journeys with curiosity, caution, and a focus on sustainable, individualized changes that support both longevity and quality of life.

Bullet Point Summary of the Podcast Episode New Obesity Measurement Data (Harvard/Mass General Study) Harvard and Mass General propose adding waist circumference to BMI to better diagnose obesity. Traditional BMI misses key factors like muscle mass and body composition. Using the updated measure, Americans classified as obese jumps from ~43% to almost 69%. This means 7 out of 10 U.S. adults would now qualify as having the disease of obesity. Dave notes this validates many people who “feel” metabolically unwell despite a “normal” BMI. Reinforces his claim that “most people should be talking to their doctors about GLP-1s.” New Oral Triple Agonist (Ascletis – ASC41/ASC? Molecule) From Ascletis (A-S-C-L-E-T-I-S), developing an oral triple agonist targeting: GLP-1 GIP Glucagon Similar in mechanism to retatrutide, expected around 2027. Preclinical (animal) data show stunning results: Oral bioavailability of 4.2% 9× higher than tirzepatide 30× higher than oral semaglutide 6× higher than oral retatrutide 57× greater drug exposure than oral retatrutide Half-life ~56 hours Stronger receptor activation than retatrutide in vitro Suggests potential for the first powerful oral triple agonist—worth watching. ️ 3. Discussion of the Gray Market / TikTok Experience Dave briefly recounts losing his TikTok account and landing in an algorithm filled with teenagers promoting gray-market “retatrutide.” Expresses concern over unregulated peptide sales, especially to minors. Fractal Health's New Data – Weight Maintenance After Stopping GLP-1s New results from the Reveal One study (Fractal Health). Participants: lost 24% of body weight on GLP-1s → stopped injections → got one Revita procedure. At 6 months post-GLP-1 discontinuation: Weight changed only 1.5% (vs. ~10% regain in typical off-drug trials) HbA1c barely shifted Safety profile clean Suggests possible long-term weight maintenance without injections through gut mucosal re-lining. Dave describes his own recent attempt to switch drugs and significant hunger return. Food Noise & Biologic Hunger Dave discusses how stopping Mounjaro caused terrifying, primal hunger. Describes the distinction between: Food noise (brain-based thoughts) Hunger signals (biological/animalistic) Reinforces why many patients cannot maintain weight loss without support. Zepbound (Tirzepatide) Cash-Pay Price Reductions Eli Lilly drops cash-pay vial pricing: 2.5 mg: $349 → $299 5 mg: $499 → $399 7.5–15 mg: $499 → $449 Community feedback (informal poll): Most say still too high to leave compounded versions. Many would switch to branded if price hit $200–$300. Dave notes the Most Favored Nations agreement will push GLP-1 prices toward $250/month within 24 months. Alzheimer's Study (Novo Nordisk – EVOKE & EVOKE+) Oral semaglutide (Rybelsus, 14 mg) did not slow Alzheimer's clinical progression. Biomarkers improved but daily function and cognitive decline did not improve vs placebo. Important context: Oral Rybelsus is a weak form of semaglutide; stronger versions (like Wegovy 2.4 mg or upcoming high-dose oral Wegovy) not tested. Weight loss is not desirable in Alzheimer's patients, influencing drug selection. Dave emphasizes: This was a nearly $700M trial and an act of scientific courage. This is NOT the end of GLP-1 Alzheimer's research. Future molecules may target neurological pathways without suppressing appetite. Mentions Lilly's brenipatide, a GIP receptor agonist being developed for: Addiction Opioid dependency Possibly asthma ️ 8. Access, Cost, and Patient Empowerment Highlights Shed as a partner offering telehealth GLP-1 access. Notes many patients hide GLP-1 use from their primary care doctors. Reinforces OTP's mission: better, more honest conversations with clinicians. Shapa (Numberless Scale) & Dave's Personal Update Dave explains how the Shapa numberless scale helped him stay engaged during weight fluctuations. Finds stepping on “zones” (green/gray/blue) less emotionally damaging than numbers. Closing Notes Promises upcoming Eli Lilly savings card update. Encourages subscribing, liking, and enabling notifications for algorithm visibility. Thanks OTP community for amplifying patient-centric obesity medicine news.

Voor een definitief gezond, laag BMI is iets totaal anders nodig dan het zoveelste dieet. Tijdelijke trucjes zijn niet effectief voor de lange termijn. Dat is iets wat de meeste mensen wel kunnen begrijpen, omdat ze dat zelf ook ervaren hebben: weer terug jojo-en in het oude gewicht en vervallen in oude gewoontes. Zo moet het dus níet.De vraag ‘hoe dan wel' blijft voor hen dan vaak onbeantwoord. Waarom? Omdat ze vanuit een ‘dieetmindset' naar het probleem blijven kijken. Ze blijven zoeken naar de ‘magic trick', of naar iemand met een toverstokje. Immers, zo worden dieetprogramma's ook vaak gepresenteerd. Geen wonder dat hun brein zo ‘gebrainwashed' is.Toch is er wel degelijk een antwoord. In deze podcast aflevering leg ik uit hoe je wél blijvend slank kunt worden en een fijne, gezonde relatie met eten kunt krijgen.

Send us a textWhat if your recovery plan and daily health choices mattered more than any diagnosis code ever could? In this powerful episode, Dr. Karen Shanks joins us to break down why true healing starts long before medications—and why movement, nutrition, sleep, trauma awareness, and agency are the real drivers of recovery.Dr. Karen shares her journey from conventional internal medicine into a prevention-focused practice built on systems biology, root-cause thinking, and actually listening to patients. We talk about why chronic fatigue, post-op pain, and slow recoveries often remain unsolved—not because people are “broken,” but because the system is.You'll learn why graded movement accelerates surgical healing, how gentle loading reduces pain, why lymphatic flow matters, and how immobilization delays progress. We explore evidence-to-practice delays, flawed incentives in healthcare, and outdated measurements like BMI and low-fat dogma still taught today.Most importantly, we dig into agency: you are hiring your clinician, not giving up control. We discuss the mind–muscle connection, epigenetics, neuroplasticity, and how everyday choices—protein intake, strength work, sleep, stress, connection—reshape your biology from the inside out.Whether you're recovering from injury, navigating chronic symptoms, or simply want better health, this episode gives you clear tools to start today.

Colossians 4:2-6 | November 30, 2025 | Pastor Todd SmithIn this powerful exploration of Colossians 4:2-6, we're challenged to live out the supremacy of Christ in three transformative ways that directly impact our daily interactions with the world around us. The passage calls us first to pray steadfastly—not just occasionally or when convenient, but with courageous persistence that characterizes our entire day. This isn't about bowing our heads at meals; it's about maintaining a constant dialogue with heaven, being spiritually nocturnal as we navigate the darkness around us. The second call is to walk wisely among outsiders, recognizing that we carry the 'Believer's Behavior Version' of the Bible everywhere we go. People are watching through both binoculars and microscopes, and our conduct gives credibility to our words. Wisdom isn't just knowledge—it's learning to connect the dots of life through God's perspective, making the best use of our vanishing commodity called time. Finally, we're urged to speak graciously, seasoning our words with salt that makes them savory and engaging rather than harsh or sanctimonious. This means being prepared to answer questions about our hope with gentleness and respect, not as God's lawyers arguing a case, but as His witnesses sharing what we've experienced. When Christ truly becomes our everything, these three practices—steadfast prayer, wise walking, and gracious speaking—flow naturally from lives transformed by His lordship.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

If you, “Woke up this mornin', dazed and confused,” and sung the lyric in your head, you've been bitten by the audio bug that is The Creekers. That line, the opening one from a song called “Tennessee” was the second-most played audio clip on TikTok this summer. It helped propel the Leslie County, Ky.-based bluegrass group to viral success, headline spots at music festivals, and ultimately a record deal with Warner Records. Co-founder Tanner Horton took time out from digging fence post holes on his home property one evening not long ago to sit in and tell us about the band's success, songwriting, how they all came together and a lot more. It turns out all but one member of the band has some sort of familial relationship with each other, either as direct as brothers (Jagger and Ashton Bowling), cousins (Horton and Allen Hacker) or by marriage (Scott Sutton).  And then there's the outlier: fiddler Anna Blanton, whose live show antics have made The Creekers not just a sound for sore ears, but a sight to see live. She's done everything from zip-lining to riding on her husband's shoulders while jumping around the crowd. (Charlie Blanton incidentally, is the bass player for friend of the show Bill Taylor and the Appalachian Heatherns.) Horton told us the story of the band coming together, his history with cousin and fellow guitarist and vocalist Allen Hacker, how the TikTok virality happened and what exactly they've got in store in the coming months with the band's new record deal.  Frank and Falls also chatted about Falls's recent trip outside of the Americana genre to take his daughter to a Tate McRae concert and they each share their Pickin' the Grinnin' pics for recommended music this week. Falls calls out Hazard, Ky., based vocalist Roy Caudill while Frank shares her experience seeing The Dirndolls live.

A thick neck is more than a cosmetic issue — it's one of the clearest physical signs of metabolic stress, indicating higher risks for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke Research shows neck circumference predicts disease risk more accurately than BMI or waist size because it reflects harmful visceral fat stored around vital organs Fat around the neck and upper torso releases inflammatory chemicals and stress hormones that disrupt blood sugar, blood pressure, and heart rhythm Visible changes in your neck, such as swelling, lumps, bulging veins, or sagging tissue, offer early clues about thyroid dysfunction, heart strain, or oxygen deprivation during sleep Tracking your neck size each month is an easy, no-cost way to monitor your metabolic health, helping you take early action before serious conditions develop

A porch write that wouldn't quit, a chorus saved by one repeated word, and a ballad that made Madison Square Garden feel like home—this conversation with Grammy-nominated songwriter Jeff Cohen is a rare look at how hits actually happen. We go deep into the moments that shaped Postcard From Paris, Crazy For This Girl, Holy Water, and In Her Eyes, and trace how small creative choices turn into big career turns.Jeff opens up about starting from the bottom at BMI, spotting talent early, and betting on chemistry over credentials in every room. The Holy Water story shows how three writers locked onto the same truth and built a chorus that breathes; the Crazy For This Girl chapter proves that live reaction often knows before radio does; and the In Her Eyes journey—from a demo crafted for a classical crossover cut to a listener's life-changing email—reveals how songs keep evolving long after they leave the studio. Along the way, we talk practical songwriting craft, verse-to-chorus lift, and the discipline of showing up prepared while staying open to the line that wasn't on the page when you walked in.For creators aiming at sync licensing, Jeff shares a current, tactical playbook: build real relationships with music supervisors, send one or two great tracks at a time, keep rights clean, and accept that trusted catalogs now gatekeep many placements. We also cover why solo writing can reset your voice, how to protect focus in co-writes, and what it means to treat music like a business without losing the spark that started it. The thread through all of this is longevity—balancing Nashville and New York, chasing global opportunities, and choosing collaborators who respect time, craft, and people.If you care about songwriting, sync licensing, A&R instincts, and the mindset that sustains a 25-year career, you'll find tools you can use today and stories you'll remember tomorrow. Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves great songcraft, and leave a review to tell us your biggest takeaway.

Registered nurse June Pomeroy discusses her article, "How physician obesity affects patient care." June explores the complex realities of weight bias within the medical field, examining how a physician's own struggle with obesity can impact patient care. She highlights the professional stigma physicians face and the documented bias from patients, which often leads to reduced treatment confidence and delayed diagnoses for obesity. June digs deep into why obesity is a complex chronic disease (not just a willpower issue) and discusses how the health care system fails both patients and providers by lacking adequate training on obesity. This conversation covers the critical need to move beyond BMI, focusing instead on metabolic health and compassion to improve patient care and challenge systemic weight stigma. Learn how addressing physician bias and wellness can transform the way we treat obesity. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Colossians 3:18-25 | November 23, 2025 | Pastor Todd SmithThis powerful exploration of Colossians 3:18-4:1 challenges us to see God's design for order in our homes and workplaces not as restrictive rules, but as pathways to His glory. We're reminded that our God is not a God of chaos—from the very first act of creation, He brought order to disorder. The passage walks us through the beautiful architecture of family life, where wives are called to willingly arrange themselves under loving leadership, husbands are commanded to sacrificially die daily for their wives, children learn obedience and honor, and parents provide correction without crushing spirits. What's revolutionary here is understanding that submission isn't servitude—it's the same beautiful posture the Son took toward the Father. The text then extends this divine order into our workplaces, reminding us that whether we're employees or employers, we're ultimately serving Christ Himself. The three anchors that help us trust this design are reward, perspective, and justice—knowing that God sees everything, our ultimate boss is Jesus, and He will make all things right. This isn't about cultural accommodation; it's about living as bright lights of gospel order in a chaotic world, where our ordered homes and honest work become lighthouses pointing others to the God who redeems disorder.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

Stevi got into Primal, then keto, then carnivore after seeing family members suffer, and dealing with her own weight issues. Carnivore got her through 2 pregnancies, got her BMI to normal levels, gave her back her brain power, and has allowed her to get through food addictions and help others to do the same. Stevi works with those that have autoimmune issues, on the AIP diet, with carnivore leaning and help them to figure out which foods trigger those issues. Stevi also created her own salad dressing company for those that need AIP options for seasonings, called Hearty Sauces.

When you're first experience with a band is seeing a publicity photo of them and each member is wearing an oversized, paper mache mask for a head, you either run for the hills or start exploring more. At Roots Music Rambler, we dive in head first. That's the typical first impression one encounters when finding the Atlanta-based band Del Roscoe. Their new self-titled album came out this fall and the sonic and visual aesthetic the group presents is enough to rouse curiosity. The band calls itself a “gothic indie Americana band.” And the experience aligns with that description. Co-founder Robert Lee, the group's primary songwriter, and drummer Matt McKinney took time from their bowling night recently to dial in to Roots Music Rambler from the front of their car. We only point that out because it totally aligns with the experience of Del Roscoe, a band named after a pair of dogs: Del and Roscoe. We talked about how the band came together, the drivers behind the look and sound, the new album, and the political undertones of songs on the album like Black Hats. As one might expect, the conversation took some twists and turns and on a couple of occasions, nearly devolved into ridiculous. But all of it was a load of fun.  This episode might be one of the more entertaining we've had in a while. Plus, Frank and Falls share their pickin' the grinnin' choices for music recommendations, and talk about the new Waylon Jennings album Songbird.  Watch the Episode on YouTube Download the episode and subscribe at rootsmusicrambler.com, watch the full episode on YouTube, or download wherever you get your podcasts.  Also be sure to help spread the love of the show with Roots Music Rambler's new merch, now available at rootsmusicrambler.com/store.

On this episode of the Food Junkies Podcast, we welcome back Dr. Erica LaFata to dive into her groundbreaking work developing the Food Addiction Severity Interview (FASI) — a clinician-administered diagnostic tool modeled after the SCID alcohol use disorder module and adapted for ultra-processed foods. Building on self-report tools like the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) and mYFAS, Erica explains why the field urgently needs a structured clinical interview to validate ultra-processed food addiction as a distinct psychiatric presentation and move toward formal recognition in the DSM. Together, we explore the nuance at the intersection of eating disorders and ultra-processed food addiction: where they overlap, where they diverge, and how mislabeling can harm people on both sides. Erica unpacks key addiction mechanisms like withdrawal and tolerance, the risks of false positives and false negatives in screening, and what clinicians should be listening for when trying to tell restrictive eating, binge eating, and addictive patterns apart – especially in youth, men, and other under-researched groups. The conversation also gets practical and hopeful: we talk about the competencies therapists, dietitians, coaches, and other practitioners need before working with ultra-processed food addiction; the tension between abstinence and harm reduction; the "volume addiction" question; and how orthorexia and the "health halo" of protein bars and high-protein UPFs can quietly hijack recovery. Erica closes by sharing how FASI data could inform future public policy and regulation of ultra-processed foods without fueling weight stigma – and gives an exciting update on the DSM submission process for ultra-processed food addiction as a condition for further study. In this episode, we discuss: Why self-report tools (YFAS, mYFAS) were a crucial first step—and why a clinician-administered interview like FASI is the necessary next one How FASI was modeled after the SCID alcohol use disorder module and adapted for ultra-processed foods The core addiction mechanisms (loss of control, withdrawal, tolerance, consequences) and how they show up with ultra-processed foods Key differences between traditional eating disorder frameworks ("all foods fit," no good/bad foods) and an addiction lens focused on specific ultra-processed foods What many food addiction coaches and practitioners may be missing without formal substance use or eating disorder training False positives vs false negatives in food addiction screens—and why missed cases (false negatives) are especially concerning How FASI uses follow-up questions to differentiate restriction, binge eating, and true addictive patterns What we know (and still don't know) about ultra-processed food addiction across sex, age, BMI, and developmental stages Early exposure in childhood and adolescence as a potential public health crisis for lifelong addictive responses to ultra-processed foods The high overlap between binge-type eating disorders (BED, bulimia nervosa) and food addiction—and what to prioritize in treatment "Volume addiction": whether what we call "addicted to volume" may actually be binge eating disorder in disguise Orthorexia, "clean eating," and the health halo of protein bars, high-protein snacks, and dressed-up "safe" foods The tension between abstinence-based and harm reduction approaches for ultra-processed foods, and why different strategies may work for different people How clinician bias (diet culture, anti-addiction frameworks, or rigid abstinence views) can affect assessment—and how FASI creates room for nuance How FASI and future data could support DSM recognition, inform policy, SNAP and marketing regulations, and reduce shame by naming ultra-processed food addiction as real and treatable A hopeful update on the DSM application for ultra-processed food addiction as a condition for further study

Today, Michelle dives into why she has chosen to remove the words obse and ob*sity from her vocabulary—both as a physician and as a coach—and why she believes it's time for all of us to question the language we've been handed about bodies. Starting from a Facebook scroll that sparked a wave of anger, she unpacks the history behind the term, including insights from Dr. Sabrina Strings' Fearing the Black Body, the role of BMI in medicalizing body size, and the very real ways weight stigma harms health. Michelle shares how hearing or using this word changes the energy in the room, the systemic discrimination it quietly justifies, and what becomes possible when we let go of pathologizing language and focus instead on actual well-being.In this episode, you'll hear about:Why the words obse and obsity don't just describe bodies—they pathologize themThe racist history of fatphobia and how it shaped our modern “ob*sity epidemic” narrativeHow BMI became the primary definition of “ob*sity” despite being a poor measure of healthThe many ways weight stigma directly harms health, independent of body sizeHow the label “ob*se” blames individuals for complex, systemic and biological factorsThe ways this term is used to deny care, justify lower-quality treatment, and exclude people from opportunitiesWhy centering weight derails conversations about actual health behaviours, trauma, nervous system regulation, and quality of lifeAlternatives to weight-based labels and how Michelle now talks about bodies in her medical and coaching workReflection questions to help you notice how this word has shaped your view of your own body and others'If this episode brings up big feelings or “aha” moments for you, Michelle would love to hear from you—and invites you to share this conversation with someone who has been harmed by weight stigma or is wrestling with the language of health.

Heather and Alan sit down with writer, lyricist, editor, and creative force Kara Cutruzzula—whose winding, multidimensional career is a masterclass in following curiosity, embracing uncertainty, and letting creative energy lead the way. Kara shares how a series of “sliding doors” moments shaped her path from journalism to essays, from writing short plays to crafting musicals, and how she learned to stop treating choices as “right or wrong” and instead as opportunities to experiment, evolve, and discover what's possible. She opens up about the power of self-belief, the importance of external accountability for big creative projects, her life as a manifesting generator (which Alan and Heather have thoughts about), and her brilliant system for managing ambition without burning out. We also dive into her upcoming Off-Broadway–focused publication The Hat, her musical Marathon, the joy of collaboration, the magic of mixing mediums, the necessity of tender self-compassion, and yes… the many unexpected life lessons learned from Wendy's, Cracker Barrel, and saucy nugs.

Send us a textA new name, a wider lens, and a promise to cut through noise. We launch The Anthony Amon Show by going straight at a stubborn problem: most people chase the scale, not the signals that truly change health. Our guest, Jason—cofounder behind Elite HRV and the camera-based body composition platform Spren—shows how better metrics and easier tools turn effort into results you can see and feel.We trace his path from building analytics in the oil industry to democratizing heart rate variability, and now to turning phones into near‑DEXA scanners. The payoff is clarity. Instead of fixating on BMI, we focus on body composition: body fat percentage, lean mass, where fat sits, and what that means for performance, aesthetics, and longevity. Jason breaks down visceral fat and the android:gynoid ratio as practical proxies for risk, and we dig into why lean mass is a leading indicator of resilience, metabolism, and aging well. We also confront modern dilemmas: “skinny fat” bodies that look fine but hide risk, and GLP‑1 users losing muscle while losing weight—and how strength training and protein can protect what matters.From there, we get tactical. Basal metabolic rate is a starting point, not a verdict; NEAT and genetics shape your real maintenance needs. Small wins compound, identity shifts stick, and resistance training pays interest daily by making hard things easier—from better sleep and clearer thinking to more spontaneous movement. We look ahead to health AI that shoulders the spreadsheet work while coaches and community keep the empathy, accountability, and context. The goal isn't to track everything; it's to track the few markers that change outcomes and let your body's data guide the next right step.Want to see what your body is really doing?

Food isn't just fuel and obesity isn't just willpower. We sat down with bariatric surgeon Dr. Mark Vierra to unpack what weight-loss surgery really changes, why genetics and hormones can overpower the best intentions, and how a careful program decides who needs a scalpel and who needs a different plan. From GLP‑1 surges and ghrelin drops to PYY's “brake,” we walk through how surgery reshapes appetite signals and why even modest weight loss can dramatically improve diabetes and cardiovascular risk.The conversation goes beyond the operating room. Dr. Vierra explains why five of six referrals don't get surgery, how he and his partner analyze food diaries, depression, and daily constraints, and when medications like bupropion or GLP‑1s make more sense. We explore binge patterns, the messy reality of predicting who will do well after weight loss surgery, and the tough calls around patients who've been told their BMI is destiny when their labs and function say otherwise. The story shifts sharply when we talk alcohol: after gastric bypass, blood alcohol rises faster and stays higher, which raises the risk of alcohol use disorder over time. We share practical ways to screen motives for drinking, plan safeguards with families, and use craving meds thoughtfully.What ties it all together is respect for biology and the person in front of us. Genetics like MC4R variants and syndromes such as Prader–Willi can drive lifelong hyperphagia; ultra‑processed foods and liquid calories amplify the problem; stigma keeps people from care. We push for a different bias—against soda and engineered foods, not against people—and for care that follows patients long after the incisions heal. If you want a grounded, humane guide to obesity treatment, this conversation delivers clarity without blame.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review so others can find it.

If you've ever been told to "just eat less and move more," or struggled with weight despite doing everything "right," this episode will validate your experience and challenge the harmful myths that still exist—even in medicine. In this deeply personal episode, I will share what happened when a colleague dismissed obesity as "lifestyle driven" rather than a chronic disease. Her response is a powerful reminder that this condition is far more complex than willpower. I will also open up about my own decades-long journey—including training for two full Ironmans and seven marathons—and why even with extreme dedication, I never reached a "normal" BMI. My story, combined with my clinical expertise, will reveal the biological, genetic, environmental, and social factors that make obesity a chronic disease affecting millions.   Episode Highlights: Why 40-70% of obesity cases are driven by genetics, not lifestyle choices The real struggles patients face: severe calorie restriction, exercising 6-7 days a week, and still not losing weight Medical conditions and medications that cause weight gain—from PCOS to antidepressants How food deserts, safety concerns, and financial barriers create obstacles beyond personal control Four practical ways to show compassion to someone living with obesity   Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd   About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

Colossians 3:15-17 | November 16, 2025 | Pastor Josh GoertzenThis powerful message from Colossians 3:15-17 reminds us that our identity in Christ fundamentally shapes how we live. We're called to three transformative pursuits: pursuing God's peace by extending to others the same undeserved kindness God showed us; pursuing God's word by letting it dwell richly within us, not just as principles but as a means to behold the precious person of Jesus Christ; and pursuing God's glory by making Him known in everything we do. The sermon beautifully illustrates how we become what we behold—if we're captivated by Jesus through His word, we'll be transformed into His likeness. Our singing isn't just vertical worship but horizontal encouragement, carrying one another to Jesus when we're too weary to go ourselves. The call is clear: let our passion be single, living solely to magnify Jesus so others might see Him as precious to their souls.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.

Want a clear, unvarnished guide to IVF that blends science, empathy, and practical advice? Lisa, an embryologist and lab director in Melbourne with over 15 years in the field, joins us to break down what truly shapes outcomes—from age and egg quality to lab standards, embryo grading, and the rise of AI in fertility care. No mystique, no scare tactics, just what works, what's changing, and what still can't be predicted.We start with a step‑by‑step tour: stimulation, retrieval, fertilization via IVF or ICSI, blastocyst growth, and the decision points around fresh transfers, freezing, and PGT. Lisa explains how PGT prioritizes embryos by chromosome balance, why it can reduce miscarriage risk, and where it still falls short when mosaics appear. If you've ever wondered why a 4AA isn't a guarantee or how a “CC” can still lead to a healthy birth, this conversation reframes grading as probability, not destiny.Then we zoom out to the system that holds it all together: the lab. Not all IVF labs are equal. Culture media, incubators, quality control, and the experience of embryologists influence embryo viability more than most patients realize. Lisa shares how time‑lapse incubators and AI now analyze thousands of images to support consistent selection, and how robotics is beginning to automate ultra‑delicate procedures like ICSI—promising fewer variables and faster decisions. We also cover lifestyle levers that matter—smoking, alcohol, BMI, sleep, and stress—and why none of them outweigh the impact of age on egg quality.If you're deciding between fresh and frozen, weighing PGT, or trying to decode grading, this episode will help you ask smarter questions and make calmer choices.

The ACOG acknowledges that maternal obesity affects labor curves and recommends allowing more time for cervical dilation before diagnosing labor arrest in obese patients. This approach aims to avoid unnecessary interventions, such as premature cesarean delivery, which may occur if standard labor curves are strictly applied to obese women. In this episode, we will review a new study from the AJOG (08 Nov 2025) which describes labor progression and duration according to maternal body mass index, validating the need (possibly) for a BMI -based labor curve. Has there been advocates of a BMI-based labor curve? Listen in for details.1. Edwards, Sara et al. Characterizing Labor Progression and Duration According to Maternal Body Mass Index.
