Discover how to use body composition data in functional medicine coaching. Learn strategies to guide care, motivate patients, and empower lasting change.

A new study reveals BMI may not be the best predictor of health. Discover why body fat percentage (BF%) offers stronger insight into long-term outcomes, and how body composition analysis helps clinicians identify risk earlier, communicate better with patients, and move beyond outdated measures.

Dr. Nina Crowley shares insights from the 2025 Obesity Medicine Association Summit, where leaders redefined comprehensive obesity care. From incretin-based therapies to integrated cardiology, sleep, and metabolic health, this recap explores how collaboration, empathy, and body composition analysis are shaping a new era of obesity medicine.

Dr. Nina Crowley and Sheena Batura explore the evolving care of metabolic liver disease (MASLD/MASH), highlighting lifestyle medicine, GLP-1s, and endoscopic procedures. This episode emphasizes the vital role of dietitians in leading multidisciplinary care and the importance of whole-person, patient-centered approaches to drive better outcomes.

Colleen Sloan, PA-C, RD, joins Nina to unpack why BMI still dominates primary care—and how to shift toward body composition, compassionate counseling, and team-based care. Learn time-saving conversation frameworks (ask–offer–ask), when to refer to dietitians, and how meaningful metrics motivate patients and improve outcomes beyond the scale.
