Metabolic health is no longer viewed in isolation—fat, muscle, and bone function as an interconnected system influencing outcomes in obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, and related disorders. Understanding this cross-talk is key to moving beyond fragmented care toward a more integrated clinical approach.

In this session, Dr Om Lakhani will explore the evolving science linking adiposity, muscle mass, and bone health, and how these interactions impact metabolic disease progression. The discussion will focus on practical implications for screening, risk assessment, and management—helping clinicians adopt a more holistic, systems-based approach to improving long-term patient outcomes.
