The journal Nature recently published a groundbreaking study on obesogens – substances that may contribute to obesity. In this episode, we're diving into this topic. We'll discuss the various types and theories about what might be causing weight gain, breaking down different models to help you understand this complex topic throughout the episode.


And I've invited Dr. Courtney Younglove, MD, to provide her insights and offer a more in-depth explanation of this topic. Dr. Younglove is a board-certified physician specializing in obesity medicine, obstetrics, and gynecology. With nearly twenty-five years of clinical experience, she earned her fellowship from the Obesity Medicine Association in 2021.


We also looked into how obesogens and environmental triggers play a role, especially their impact on vulnerable populations like pregnant women and their children. Additionally, we delve into the biochemical aspects of obesity, uncovering some fascinating insights and what they really mean for us.


If you're keen on diving deeper into obesogens, tune in to the full episode. Here, you'll not only gain a better understanding of this topic but also discover the importance of shifting the narrative on obesity.
