Francesca Celletti

Francesca Celletti, a Senior Advisor at WHO focusing on obesity, and Ezekiel Emanuel, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, dive into the WHO's new guidelines on GLP-1 therapies for obesity treatment. They discuss crucial recommendations, the importance of ongoing data, and the gap in long-term understanding. Concerns about side effects, lifestyle interventions, and equitable access are raised. Both emphasize that while medications are essential, solving obesity requires systemic changes and collaboration.
