GLP-1 medications are everywhere right now but so is the misinformation. In this episode of Simplifying Diabetes, we break down what GLP-1 medications actually are, how they work in the body, why side effects happen, and why these medications are far more nuanced than social media makes them seem.

We discuss:

what GLP-1 stands for,
the difference between natural GLP-1 and medications,
Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and other GLP-1 medications,
why not everyone loses weight,
common side effects and how nutrition can help,
compounded GLP-1s,
TikTok "GLP-1 supplements,"
body autonomy,
and how these medications can support diabetes management when paired with sustainable habits.

As a dietitian who works with clients on these medications regularly, I also share real-life experiences from practice and ways to reduce fear, shame, and confusion around using GLP-1s.
