       This isn’t medical advice — always talk to your doctor before making any health decisions.

The scale has ruled health for decades, but modern obesity care shows it only tells part of the story. In this episode, we explore how GLP-1 therapies and advanced body composition analysis provide a clearer picture of health beyond weight alone. We discuss BMI, the Body Roundness Index, SECA body composition insights, why baselines matter, and how new global guidance is reshaping the future of obesity treatment.
