This episode’s guest is Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen. She’s arguably the top specialist in Ozempic and related weight loss medications. Dr. Salas-Whalen is a double board-certified physician with broad experience across all facets of endocrinology, with a particular emphasis on obesity, diabetes and thyroid disorders. She is a strong advocate for prevention rather than treatment – especially in regard to obesity and diabetes. In this episode, Dr Salas-Whalen and I discuss:- Is Ozempic safe?- Why is the US in an obesity epidemic?- The dangers of rapid weight loss.- What causes obesity?- Strategies for long-term weight loss.
