The Weight-Health Connection
Being over-weight or obese isn't just a number on the scale-it's linked to a multiple of health issues. From heart disease to diabetes and cancer, excess weight increases the risk of many chronic conditions.
Medical Complexity of weight loss
Beyond ‘eat less – move more’, Weight loss is a complex biology
Understanding Weight Management Complexity

Key mechanisms in weight regulations
Hind gut Hypothesis
Gut microbiota composition, especially in the hindgut, affects energy metabolism and weight regulation.
Leptin and Ghrelin
These hormones control appetite and energy balance, with dysregulation contributing to overeating and weight gain.
Insulin Resistance
Cells' reduced response to insulin leads to elevated blood sugar levels, often associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Set-Point Theory
The body regulates weight within a range influenced by genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, making long-term weight loss challenging.
Stress and Cortisol
Chronic stress increases cortisol levels, promoting appetite and fat storage, particularly around the abdomen, potentially leading to weight gain.
