Can Weight Loss Really Heal Your Back — and Extend Your Life?

from Dr. Bob Martin Show · host Radio America

Your spine doesn’t negotiate with gravity — and if you’re carrying extra weight, it’s not just your waistline that suffers. Discover how losing even a small amount of weight can lift four times that burden off your spine and joints, why belly fat acts like a chemical fire consuming your body from the inside, and when “rapid weight loss” actually makes pain worse by stripping away vital muscle. Whether you’re battling chronic back pain or seeking better mobility, this segment will change how you think about gravity, glucose, and the true physics of wellness.Special Guest: Dr. Earl Mindell, pharmacist, nutritionist, and best-selling author
