Live Well with Michelle: Beyond Willpower, The New Science of Weight Loss

Michelle speaks with the first Gastroenterologist in Singapore to be recognised as a National Fellow by World Obesity Federation, to find out about advances in weight control. As science transforms our understanding of obesity, experts now recognise it as a chronic disease shaped by biology, hormones and the brain - not just lifestyle choices. Hosted by Michelle Martin in conversation with Dr Ravishankar Asok-kumar, Senior Consultant, Gastroenterologist and Advanced Therapeutic Endoscopist at Singapore General Hospital, this episode explores why weight regain is so common, where GLP-1 medications and new minimally invasive treatments fit, and why personalised obesity care could change not just our weight, but our long-term health, confidence and quality of life. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
