Summary
GLP 1 medications are everywhere, and most conversations swing between hype and shame. This episode slows it all down.
We cover what GLP 1 actually is (a natural satiety and blood sugar hormone), how GLP 1 medications work in the gut and brain, what the research shows so far, and what it still does not answer. We talk about why these meds can feel life changing for food noise and cravings, plus the tradeoffs that often get minimized, like nausea, constipation, fatigue, under eating, and muscle loss.
This is not a pro or anti episode. It is a physiology first conversation to help you ask better questions and make thoughtful decisions, whether you are curious, considering it, or already using one.
