Here's the truth: most people using GLP-1 medications for weight loss are doing it wrong. In this episode, Natalie sits down with peptide expert and author and peptide expert, Jay Campbell to break down what's really happening behind the GLP-1 trend and why dosing, lifestyle, and education matter more than most people realize. If you've considered GLP-1s, are currently using them, or are struggling with weight loss in midlife, this conversation will challenge what you think you know. You'll learn: Why high doses may be doing more harm than good What "microdosing" actually means—and why it matters The biggest mistakes people make when starting GLP-1s How hormones, muscle, and protein intake impact results The difference between GLP-1, GLP-2, and GLP-3 Why lifestyle—not medication—is still the foundation Jay also explains emerging research around metabolism, brain health, and "food noise"—and how these medications may be used beyond weight loss. This is not about quick fixes. It's about understanding your body—and making informed decisions.
