Blog Post Summary

This blog post discusses the management of obesity in clinical practice. The benefits of using a personalised approach are highlighted while other factors are taken into consideration when supporting obese patients - too little versus too much physical activity, and their equal contribution to respiratory tract infection risk for example. The crucial role of weight loss is analysed and discussed, along with the importance of working with a team of different healthcare practitioners, who practice patient-lead healthcare.
