Good Medicine Podcast What Your Fat Is Telling Your Brain | Dr. David and Dr. Jeremiah Bearss
This week on the Good Medicine Podcast, Dr. David Bearss and Dr. Jeremiah Bearss explore what fat is actually communicating to your brain and why the body often fights against weight loss.Jeremiah explains how the body is wired to hold onto fat as a survival mechanism. Fat storage has always been the backup plan for famine, injury, and cold, which means the body’s default mode is to protect those reserves in case something goes wrong.Dave discusses how inflammation influences this process. When the body is inflamed, fat can send signals to the brain that increase appetite and encourage the body to store even more fat. Reducing inflammation can help reverse that signal and make it easier to lose weight and keep it off.They also talk about the many different GLP-1 targets currently being explored and why inflammation may be the reason these drugs work for so many people. Jeremiah explains how the next phase of drug development and health innovation will likely focus on shifting the course of the obesity crisis.Thank you to our sponsorsBioHive: https://www.biohive.comGalvan: https://galvan.sng.link/D4mh8/oe8k/littFollow Good Medicine PodcastInsta: https://www.instagram.com/good.medicine.podcast/ X: https://x.com/GoodMedicinePod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@good.medicine.podcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/goodmedicinepodcast/
