Obesity is one of the most complex and misunderstood health conditions—and it’s about far more than weight alone.
In this episode of Scrub In, we’re joined by Anirudha Goparaju, MD, FACS, to break down the real science behind obesity and why sustainable weight loss isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. From nutrition and exercise to bariatric surgery, weight loss medications and hormonal changes, this conversation tackles the physical and emotional realities people face on their health journey.
We discuss:
- Why obesity is a chronic medical condition—not a personal failure
- What sustainable weight loss actually looks like
- The role of nutrition, movement, and metabolism
- Bariatric surgery and weight loss medications: who they help and why
Whether you’re navigating weight loss yourself, supporting a loved one, or want evidence-based answers—this episode offers clarity, compassion and practical takeaways you can use right away.
🎧 Listen now and start thinking about health beyond the scale.
