Summary
In this Ask Me Anything episode, Dr. Will Cole and his team tackle listener questions on periorbital edema with Hashimoto's, what your fingernails are communicating about your metabolic and immune health, and the oral vs. injectable GLP-1 debate. They also address a question that's generating a lot of conversation online: are GLP-1 medications blunting dopamine in ways that affect desire, relationships, and emotional connection — and what can be done about it? As always, the team brings both the clinical nuance and the real-world perspective. For all links mentioned in this episode, visit http://www.drwillcole.com/podcast
