#5 GLP-1 vs. GIP: Understanding the Peptides Behind Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro

Описание: The rules of metabolism are being rewritten—and the script is simpler than you've been told: your body runs on signals.


In this episode, Dr. Kylie Burton and Jessica Briecke dive into GLP-1 and GIP—the gut-brain messengers behind Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound—and show you how they restore the conversation between your pancreas, liver, and brain.


When those messages are clear, blood sugar steadies, cravings quiet down, and energy lasts. When they're muffled by stress, poor sleep, and inflammation, insulin resistance takes over and everything feels harder than it should.


What We Cover:

• How GLP-1 and GIP work as gut-brain messengers to restore metabolic communication
• Insulin resistance explained with a lock-and-key model you can picture instantly
• How insulin resistance connects to fatty liver, rising cholesterol, and brain fog
• Semaglutide (GLP-1) vs. Tirzepatide (GLP-1/GIP dual agonist): what's the difference and why it matters
• Why the GIP layer often means gentler tolerance and broader metabolic benefits
• Candid talk on side effects, microdosing, and smart titration strategies
• How peptides ease whole-system strain across cortisol, thyroid, and sex hormones
• What long-term wins actually look like: steadier energy, better focus, and a healthier liver

For Anyone Ready to Stop Chasing Skinny and Start Chasing Stability: This episode gives you a clear path forward—grounded in science, free of hype, and focused on what actually works.
