In this episode of ReInvent Healthcare, we dig into the latest trend in weight loss drugs, GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic and other semaglutides. We’re joined by Marcelle Pick, an internationally known functional medicine practitioner and women's health expert who’s been digging deep into the research.

Marcelle digs deep into what GLP-1 is, how it works in the body, and the dangers associated with its rising popularity as an approach to weight loss.

Marcelle and I break down the science behind GLP-1 agonists, addressing key concerns like muscle loss, rebound weight gain, heart health, and the impact on metabolic health. This episode also covers natural alternatives that can help people achieve sustainable weight loss without the adverse effects seen in pharmaceutical interventions.
