We’ve most likely all heard of GLP-1s, but what exactly are these ‘weight loss injections’? For our final Weight Loss 360° podcast episode of the series, Dr Anju Verma speaks to Helen to demystify these treatments and give us the facts. 

She tells us what GLP-1s are, how they work in the body, who they are suitable for, and what side effects are commonly experienced. 

Dr Anju Verma is Clinical Lead for Weight Loss and Menopause Advisor at Boots Online Doctor. She is SCOPE certified (international gold standard for obesity management) and a member of the Association for the Study of Obesity.
