Summary

In this episode of Well Beyond 40, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Ashley Koff, a registered dietitian with over 25 years of experience in personalized nutrition. We dove deep into the world of GLP-1, a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating appetite, insulin, and leptin. Ashley shared her insights on how to optimize your body's natural production of GLP-1 and when it might be appropriate to consider GLP-1 agonist medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc).

We also discussed the importance of working with a qualified practitioner when considering these medications, as they can have significant effects on your metabolism and overall health. Ashley emphasized the need for a comprehensive approach that includes nutrition, lifestyle changes, and regular monitoring to ensure the best possible outcomes. Whether you're looking to improve your metabolic health, manage your weight, or simply feel your best, this episode is packed with valuable information you won't want to miss!
