Modern Metabolic Health with Dr. Lindsay Ogle, MD

We break down the core principles of sustainable weight management, from why personalization outperforms one-size-fits-all advice to the simple nutrition habits that consistently move the needle: fewer ultra-processed foods, more protein and fiber, plenty of vegetables, and enough water to support appetite and energy.

We also tackle a big misconception: exercise is priceless for health and weight maintenance, but it’s not ...

The plan you choose this enrollment season can decide whether your obesity treatment moves forward or stalls out. We unpack the entire decision path so you can compare plans with confidence, avoid hidden exclusions, and secure access to the care that actually changes health.

We start by simplifying the moving parts that shape what you’ll pay: premiums, deductibles, coinsurance, copays, and the out-of-pocket maximum. Then w...

Most people picture anorexia as a body that looks frail. We pull back the curtain on a form that hides in plain sight: atypical anorexia—true restriction, real medical risk, and a brain consumed by food rules, occurring at any body size. With registered dietitian Isabelle from Bamboo Nutrition, we unpack how emotional eating can mean both eating to self-soothe and restricting to numb, why culture normalizes harmful patterns, and ho...

We break down metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease, why it’s so often missed, and how to catch it early with the right labs and imaging. We explain simple steps to lower risk, the medications with the best evidence, and when to see a specialist.

• What MASLD is and how it progresses 
• Why incidental imaging findings matter 
• ALT, AST, platelets and what they mean 
• Using FIB-4 to estimate fibrosis ri...

We break down what obesity means in clinical terms and how to measure risk with more clarity. We compare BMI, waist circumference, body fat percentage, and the Edmonton Obesity Staging System to show how each tool informs smarter care.

• BMI strengths for population screening 
• BMI limits for individuals and for women 
• Waist circumference thresholds and why visceral fat matters 
• Clothing fit as a practical...

We unpack why weight loss is hard, how set point and hunger hormones push back, and what tools make maintenance possible. We move from biology and environment to medications, mindset, and practical support so you can protect your metabolic health for the long term.

• evolutionary biology driving energy conservation
• modern food environment increasing calorie density and reward
• weight set point and metabolic adap...

Ready to start a GLP-1 but not sure what happens after you leave the pharmacy? We walk through the five essentials most people wish they’d heard on day one—how to inject without fear, how to store and warm the pen for comfort, and how to rotate sites to prevent irritation. You’ll hear why a personalized titration plan matters more than a preset calendar, when it’s wise to pause at a lower dose, and how to taper down or restart safe...
