The Real Science Behind Midlife Weight Gain with Noom's Dr. Karen Mann
About this episode
Dr. Karen Mann discusses the science behind midlife weight gain and effective strategies for managing it.
Struggling with midlife weight gain even though you're doing everything right? OB/GYN and obesity medicine specialist Dr. Karen Mann, medical director at Noom, breaks down why weight gain isn't willpower — it's hormones, metabolism, and mindset. You'll learn why pairing GLP-1s with behavior coaching leads to 48% more weight loss than medication alone, how to safely combine HRT and GLP-1s (and in what order), and why perimenopause is your window to get ahead of muscle loss and metabolic slowdown. As Dr. Mann puts it: "How you feed yourself is how you love yourself." Let's get smart about it, beauties!
