Hello, this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.
2
I'm Neil.
3
And I'm Georgie.
4
Neil, I saw you eating a healthy looking salad earlier.
5
Is there anything else you do to stay healthy?
6
At the moment I am following an exercise routine and I'm eating healthily.
7
But I'm not sure if it's having much effect.
8
How about you?
9
Well, I'm training for a half marathon at the moment,
10
so I'm doing a lot of running,
11
but I still eat a lot of sugar.
12
A sweet treat.
13
Diet, exercise and eating in moderation helps some people stay at a healthy weight.
14
But with around 65% of British adults estimated to be overweight,
15
that doesn't help everyone.
16
But this has changed with the recent invention of weight loss drugs.
17
Yes, weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Manjaro have been a hot topic this year.
18
The drugs are modified versions of natural hormones which make us feel full when released into the body.
19
Weight loss drugs are injected into the tummy and replicate this effect,
20
but last much longer.
21
The idea is that you feel full for longer,
22
eat less and lose weight.
23
In this episode we'll be hearing more about these drugs helping people lose weight And as usual,
24
we'll be learning some useful new words and phrases.
25
Plus there's a worksheet and quiz to practice all the vocabulary we'll learn on our website.
26
But first I have a question for you, Neil.
27
The measurement used by doctors to estimate if someone is at a healthy weight is called BMI.
28
But what does BMI stand for?
29
Is it a British Medical Index,
30
b Body Mass Index or c Body Muscle Index?
31
Well, I am 99.9% certain that I know the answer,
32
Georgie, so I don't want to spoil it for our listeners.
33
So we'll just find out at the end.
34
OK then.
35
For radio listener Lynne Massey-Davis,
36
weight loss drugs have been life-changing.
37
Using the drug Manjaro, Lynne lost 20 kilograms in six months and now feels happier than ever about her weight,
38
something she discussed with Greg Foote,
39
presenter of BBC Radio 4 programme Sliced Bread.
40
What's it like to be on it?
41
Well, I don't get hungry, so food noise stops.
42
And all those scripts about yourself,
43
that you're a bad person for eating.
44
I feel like that judgment has drifted into the ether.
45
And when you say food noise,
46
what do you mean by that?
47
For me, it was a conflict,
48
like I got a devil and an angel on my shoulders.
49
The angel said, don't eat that because you shouldn't eat food.
50
The devil inside me said,
51
oh, but you just want a taste.
52
It damaged my self-esteem for a very,
53
very long time, probably for the best part of maybe 50 years.
54
Weight loss drugs help Lyn reduce food noise,
55
a term for intrusive and unwanted thoughts about food.
56
In fact, Lyn says her unwanted food noise has gone into the ether,
57
meaning it has completely disappeared.
58
Before using Monjaro, Lyn felt conflicted about food.
59
She says there was an angel on one shoulder
60
and a devil on the other – an old idiom which describes having a personal dilemma.
61
An imaginary angel, representing Lin's conscience,
62
told her what she should do,
63
while a devil sat on the other shoulder,
64
whispering temptations in her ear.
65
Over many years, this inner conflict damaged Lin's self-esteem,
66
her belief and confidence in her own abilities.
67
Interestingly, weight loss drugs weren't invented to lose weight at all.
68
They were originally designed for diabetes,
69
a disease caused when somebody's blood sugar levels get too high.
70
It was only later that doctors noticed the drug's effect on weight.
71
Professor Giles Yeo researches obesity and is also a consultant for companies developing weight loss drugs.
72
Here he is talking to BBC Radio 4's Sliced Bread.
73
We talked about Ozempic first because that was the first on the market for diabetes.
74
And then people began to notice as a side effect that people were losing weight.
75
A lot of people with diabetes also have obesity.
76
And part of the effects of actually reversing the diabetes is the fact that they lose weight.
77
And so doctors began to sort of prescribe them off-label.
78
Ozempic was the first drug on the market.
79
When something is on the market, it's available for sale.
80
A Zempic was designed for diabetes,
81
but doctors noticed that patients lost weight as a side effect.
82
A side effect is an unexpected secondary effect of a drug or medicine.
83
It's usually an undesirable effect,
84
although not in this case as it helped people lose weight.
85
But could weight loss drugs be too good to be true?
86
A public health official in the UK warns
87
that the drugs alone are not the solution and that people should be encouraged to have a healthier lifestyle.
88
Right Georgie, isn't it time you revealed the answer to your question?
89
Yes, I asked about BMI,
90
which is the measurement used by doctors to estimate if someone is at a healthy weight.
91
But what does BMI stand for?
92
Now, Neil, you didn't give me an answer earlier.
93
Yes, that's because I was sure the answer is B.
94
Body mass index.
95
That's correct, well done.
96
OK, let's recap the vocabulary we've learnt,
97
starting with food noise – intrusive and unwanted thoughts about food.
98
The idiom an angel on one shoulder
99
and a devil on the other describes a personal dilemma where someone must choose whether to follow their conscience or not.
100
Self-esteem means a belief in your own abilities and value.
101
If something disappears into the ether,
102
it completely goes away, it vanishes into the air.
103
A product which is on the market is available for people to buy.
104
And finally, a side effect is an unexpected and usually unwanted secondary effect of a drug or medicine.
