Summary

Microdosing GLP1s has become a buzzword across social media, but most of what’s being promoted isn’t accurate or aligned with what I’ve taught. In this episode, I’m setting the record straight. From telemedicine companies marketing standard starting doses as “microdosing,” to influencers pushing products under the guise of inflammation support, it’s time we talk about what’s really going on. I’ll break down the origins of this conversation, what the concept of microdosing was actually intended for, and why it’s NOT an effective weight loss strategy. If you’ve seen my name mentioned in this space, or if you’re confused by the mixed messaging online, this episode is for you. Topics Discussed: → What's the difference between microdosing and standard GLP1s? → Microdosing GLP1s vs standard dosing: how do they compare? → How is microdosing GLP1s different from regular dosing? → Microdosing or standard GLP1s – which one are you actually doing? → Are you really microdosing GLP1s, or just using the standard dose?

0:06.6	On this episode of the Dr. Tina show, we're going to sit down for a minute and have a talk because I think the time has come.
0:13.6	This whole microdosing for weight loss nonsense that's going around the internet that's being touted by health influencers who are claiming to be doing it
0:20.9	for inflammation, but really we know they're doing it for weight loss. The telemedicine
0:24.7	companies that are selling people in on microdosing GLP-1s for a myriad of things and then giving
0:30.8	them the standard starting dose, which is what's happening everywhere, gross. And then all the
0:35.4	doctors who've been claiming to be doing this for years,
0:37.6	who are actually still just standard dosing. We need to talk about it because I think it all feels
0:43.5	pretty gross at this point. My message that I originally came out with that I got my ass
0:49.9	handed to me for the first year, at least, alone. I had absolutely no support.
0:55.4	I had everybody coming at me with just full-on heat when I first introduced this concept.
1:02.0	It's gotten completely twisted, bastardized, co-opted, mainstream medias ran with it and twisted
1:09.4	it.
1:09.8	It has all turned into some big gross,
1:13.1	multimillion dollar industry, I'm sure, at this point, all around vanity weight loss.
1:20.8	And that is not at all what I ever intended it to be. Not at all. The conversation I've
1:26.8	been trying to have is a completely separate
1:29.1	conversation. And yet, this messaging is what's gotten out. This is what the publications have
1:35.2	written up on. This is what all of the internet is a buzz about. And now we've got, I mean,
1:41.9	this week alone, it's going off over on Instagram. I don't know
1:45.7	about TikTok, but man, the, just the pushback on it that I'm seeing, because people are fed up.
