Welcome to Season 3 of the Essence of Health Tea Time podcast!

Studies show that over 70% of Americans have a metabolic condition including overweight and obesity conditions. We now have medication therapy available to treat these conditions. However, studies show that less than 8% of Americans are using an anti-obesity medication for treatment, despite their proven effectiveness when used as part of a comprehensive weight management plan. Certain injectable medications have gained widespread notoriety amongst weight management medication options. However, many Americans simply are unable to access these medications due to lack of availability and cost. This highlights the need for greater awareness of the available FDA-approved medications beyond the injectable medications that are effective and accessible to help more individuals who are challenged with the condition of obesity to achieve their health goals.

On today's episode, Dr. Shayla will be joined by a special guest, Dr. Lindsay Ogle and they will be spilling “𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚 𝐎𝐧 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐭.”
