GLP-1s, Weight Loss Medications & The Truth About Nutrition

Описание: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are dominating headlines, commercials, and even doctor’s offices. But what’s really going on with these weight loss drugs?

In this episode, Kelly Springer explains what GLP-1s are, how they work, why they can be effective, and the hidden nutritional dangers of relying on these medications alone without guidance from a registered dietitian.

📌 Key Takeaways:

GLP-1s suppress hunger, but they don’t teach you how to eat.

Without nutrition counseling, GLP-1 users risk muscle loss, nutrient deficiencies, and weight regain.

The medications are meant to be lifelong unless nutrition intervention is provided.

It’s not just about weight loss—it’s about long-term health.

Now is the time to get a registered dietitian before insurance changes in 2026.
