About this episode

Dr. Paul discusses childhood obesity and weight loss drugs for kids with integrative pediatrician Michelle Perro.

In this episode of *Pediatric Perspectives*, I'm joined by integrative pediatrician Michelle Perro, M.D. — a clinician with 43 years of experience, an environmental medicine specialist, and the CEO and founder of [GMO Science](https://gmoscience.org). Dr. Perro has spent decades studying how food, pesticides, and environmental toxicants affect children's health, and in this conversation she brings that perspective directly to bear on one of the most pressing issues in pediatrics today: childhood obesity and the growing push to treat it with GLP-1 agonist drugs.
