About this episode
In this eye-opening bonus episode, Amanda and Jasmin tackle the controversial weight loss drug, Ozempic (and similar GLP-1 receptor agonist drugs).
With detailed first-hand clinical stories and personal and professional insights, Amanda and Jasmin discuss the pros and cons of these drugs, who is the ideal candidate to take them, and why they might not be the miracle solution people assume they are.
Tune in to learn:
• Why Ozempic has become the go-to “quick”weight loss solution for many - and why this trend might be problematic
• The dangers of losing disproportionate levels of muscle when using GLP-1 receptor agonists and how that can affect your metabolism long-term
• Real-life examples of how these drugs are being used “off label” for minor weight loss
• What happens when you stop taking it, and why keeping the weight off could be harder than you think
We finish the episode with strategies for helping your kids eat well, develop intuitive eating habits from young, and stay authentically well into adulthood.
