Less fat correlates with lower blood glucose levels, fewer heart attacks, less weight on aging hip and knee joints, improvement in fatty liver disease, delayed progression of diabetes-related kidney disease and more energy for day-to-day activities
Marijuana use, cigarette smoking, vaping, and taking certain medications such as anti-obesity drugs, including semagultide (Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Zepbound), can all affect your anesthesia plan
This balanced approach can harness the benefits while minimizing uncertainties
