Episode 24
Wednesday, 24 December, 2025
Join Dr. Grace Chua and Dr. Akshay Jain as they unpack the complex relationship between obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this episode, they explore the pathophysiologic mechanisms linking obesity to CVD, including the roles of insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and visceral adiposity. The discussion also highlights clinical implications for early risk identification and patient stratification, helping clinicians better recognize and address cardiovascular risk. This podcast is part of the Obesity and CVD Knowledge Mobilization Strategy, an initiative designed to equip healthcare providers with practical tools and evidence to address obesity as a major driver of cardiovascular disease.
