About the book
Obesity
Cut through the misinformation around obesity with the latest scientific evidence
A significant disconnect persists between rapid advances in obesity science published in specialist journals and information available to the broader public, where misinformation and fad diets proliferate. Obesity: Life Beyond the GLP-1 Injection directly addresses commonly held misconceptions, translating the latest scientific knowledge into accessible, evidence-based discussion across twelve focused chapters covering distinct obesity-related themes.
Each chapter takes a holistic, multidisciplinary approach that extends well beyond dietary change alone, joining together the individual pieces of obesity prevention and management, from appetite physiology and the gut microbiota to muscle health, sleep, fibre intake, and the broader environmental drivers of weight gain. Original illustrations throughout reinforce key learning points and bring core concepts to life.
Readers will also find:
- Accessible explanations of GLP-1 therapies and other current pharmacological approaches within the??broader context of obesity treatment options
- Discussion of lifestyle pillars including physical exercise, sleep, fibre intake, and muscle maintenance as??components of a multidisciplinary prevention strategy
- Analysis of societal stigma surrounding obesity and how widespread misconceptions perpetuate harmful attitudes toward people living with the condition
- Guidance on distinguishing evidence-based weight management approaches from profit-driven fad diets lacking any credible scientific foundation
- Coverage of appetite physiology, the limitations of BMI, the gut-brain axis, and our future transition from an obesogenic to a leptogenic environment
Written for general readers with a basic scientific understanding, Obesity will also be a valuable resource for healthcare professionals managing obesity, dieticians, sports scientists, physical therapists, personal trainers, and students training in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, psychology, and allied health professions seeking a reliable, science-grounded perspective on this critical health issue.
