White House doctor advises Trump to lose weight

The president's physician recommended diet changes, weight loss, and increased exercise following his annual physical examination.

The White House released the results of President Donald Trump's physical examination on the evening of 29/5, along with recommendations from Doctor Sean Barbabella.

"President Trump's health remains excellent, with good cardiovascular, respiratory, neurological, and overall physical function. His cognitive and physical abilities are outstanding. He is fully fit to perform all duties as commander-in-chief and head of state," Doctor Barbabella wrote.

During the examination, the medical team provided preventive counseling. This included dietary guidance, a recommendation for low-dose aspirin, increased physical activity, and continued weight loss,' he noted.

The doctor stated that the president is 190 cm tall and weighs 107 kg. During his physical examination in 4/2025, Mr. Trump weighed approximately 102 kg. In early 5, Mr. Trump declared he "feels no different than 50 years ago" and admitted his fondness for fast food, steak, and Diet Coke. He quipped, "Perhaps junk food is good for health."

Mr. Trump underwent his third routine physical as US president at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center earlier this week. Doctor Barbabella assessed that "the slight swelling in his leg has improved compared to last year."

Regarding Mr. Trump's cardiovascular health, the doctor stated: "An AI-enhanced electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis estimates his heart age to be about 14 years younger than his chronological age."

Mr. Trump also took the Montreal cognitive assessment. This is a 10-minute screening test used to detect mild cognitive impairment and early-stage dementia. The doctor reported that the president achieved a perfect score of 30.
