Description
Alolayan and co-authors compare two ways of delivering obesity care in a trial from two thousand twenty-four. Adults in Saudi Arabia joined a twelve-week program of diet advice, meal plans, and activity goals. Some attended in person at a clinic, while others met by video call.
Sixty-two adults took part. Weight, body fat, and waist size fell clearly in both groups, with no real gap between them. About half of each group lost more than five percent of their starting weight. The video group attended more sessions and dropped out less, and they reported higher satisfaction. The authors say remote care can match clinic care and reach patients with limited access.
