Weight loss injections (also known as GLP-1s) are fast become mainstream conversation.

In todays podcast we talk with Dr Kevin Fernando, GP and Diabetes expert for the last 15 years. He now works with clients both in the NHS and from his clinic https://www.iyasuhealthcare.com/dr-kevin-fernando

We discuss who these meds are for, the positives, the negatives, the importance of doing your research, and why working alongside a GP or nurse is essential. We also talk "beyond the jab" - why it's important to after yourself from a nutrition, movement and lifestyle perspective and how looking at what you want your life to look like in the next 30 years, rather than simply what you want to look like, can be so much more empowering.
