Dr. Oz and His Guest Expert Who Shares His Thoughts on Obesity and Weight Loss

This expert guest was touted on the ads as the doctor who thinks everything Dr. Oz says about weight loss is wrong.

Dr. Oz and The Doctor Who Thinks That Dr. Oz is Wrong About Weight Loss

But the fact is that they agreed more than they disagreed. It is more a matter of symantics and points-of-references to the scientific research than opinion or experience.

It all got back to ‘Lifestyle’…

Both doctors agreed upon the relevance of a healthy Lifestyle as the biggest indicator of the health of an individual.

In many ways, even if a person was overweight, it didn’t mean that they were necessarily unhealthy. Likewise, even if someone were a little thin, it doesn’t mean that they are not at risk due to a larger percentage of body fat than their peers.

Most people listening to these two debate some of the finer points of medicine and measurement, they undoubtedly got lost in the shuffle. However, what became clear after the dialogue was that Lifestyle weighed more heavily in the equation for health than did an arbitrary calorie count or poundage.

I find it intrusive and non-constructive to focus on pounds and weight loss. With the EAV Evaluation, we look at the relative health status of all the organs and systems in the body which determines the quality of the Lifestyle the person in living. It all starts and ends there…

Dieting is not the solution to weight management. A healthy and sustainable food program is the real road to a healthy Lifestyle.
