Episode summary

On this episode, Dr. Nneka and I explore BMI and the fact that - people in bigger bodies are not unhealthy, lazy, unworthy of love and belonging or less smart. Let's pursue and promote health for people of all sizes. We can't all be a size 6 but we can all be healthy. The goal is to throw more light on what other health indicators we should all pursue and realise that health is not defined by the number on the scale.

Our Favorite Highlights

Did You Know? BMI does not differentiate fat from lean muscle mass so even though 2 people have the same BMI of 28, one person may just be all lean muscle.

As healthcare professionals, it is important that we acknowledge individuality and manage people with their presenting symptoms and not based on their size.

When people move from one fad diet to another, we automatically increase our risk for the same diseases that obesity puts us at risk for; the adverse effects of weight cycling.
