“Dodging the diabetes and obesity bullet” by Professor Katherine Samaras

Professor Katherine Samaras, Head of the Adipose Tissue in Diabetes and Obesity lab at the Garvan Institute, gives a ‘cooks tour’ of diabetes and obesity.
Professor Samaras explains that diabetes and obesity are two of the biggest health issues we face, with obesity being the clearest driver behind diabetes. However, weight loss, even as little as 6kg, in obese people can essentially reverse diabetes by shifting glucose intolerance back to normal levels.
