Goodbye BMI: A New Perspective on Obesity?

In this episode of "Change Your Relationship With Food," host Kyla Holley explores the longstanding issues with using BMI as an indicator of health. Kyla discusses how BMI, a measure developed for statistical purposes over 200 years ago, fails to account for important factors such as muscle mass, age, race, and fat distribution.
Drawing insights from a recent study conducted by the Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology Commission, Kyla explains the newly proposed definitions of 'clinical obesity' and 'preclinical obesity.' This study brings fresh perspectives, offering a more nuanced understanding of obesity that includes organ function and day-to-day activity impacts, rather than relying solely on weight.
The episode further delves into the implications of these new definitions for medical practitioners, patients, and public perception. While the new criteria for obesity diagnosis show promise in reducing stigma, Kyla emphasizes the challenges in changing entrenched perceptions among healthcare providers and the general public.
Looking forward to a future where the stigma is diminished, and understanding of health in larger bodies is improved, Kyla remains hopeful about the impact of these changes. Tune in next week for a compelling discussion with Michael Collins on sugar addiction.
