21 Apr 2026 BANT Member Natalie Burrows on GB News
Join BANT Spokesperson Natalie Louise Burrows in conversation with GB News Nana Akua on ‘Difficult Conversations’ as they unpack weight loss medications, feeling fuller for longer, nutrition deficiencies and using medications safely as a ‘tool’ – supported with dedicated wraparound nutrition and lifestyle care for safe weight loss.
With the rapid increase in GLP-1 users, the majority of whom are sourcing medications privately, there is growing concern around over-normalising the side effects of these medications such as nausea, reflux, diarrhoea, constipation. Natalie and Nana touch on these plus more serious side effects. Natalie also explains the risk of malnutrition and the importance of protein foods for protecting musclemass whilst using weight loss medications.
Suppressing appetite is part of a wider societal conversation which should include actionable support and education on how to eat a healthy and balanced diet; from switching ultra processed foods for whole foods, ensuring adequate protein and fibre intake, supporting hunger and satiety signalling through food choices, and helping those who have successfully lost weight to keep it off.
With over 3000 Nutrition Practitioners at BANT.org.uk, help is at hand for those seeking weight loss support naturally, and whilst using or coming off GLP-1 medications.
BANT Practitioners are on an accredited PSA-register.
