Can GLP-1 Agonists Help You Lose Weight? What to Know!
04/24/25 • 9 min
Are GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro the weight-loss miracle everyone’s talking about?
In this episode, I break down what these medications are, how they work, and why they’ve become so popular. But I also reveal the hidden risks—including weight regain, muscle loss, and high costs—that you need to know before considering them.
We’ll also discuss:
✅ The science behind GLP-1 agonists and how they impact your brain and appetite.
✅ The rise of compounded versions and why they may soon disappear.
✅ Why microdosing GLP-1 agonists is trending—and the lack of research to back it up.
✅ The essential lifestyle changes to make these medications safer and more effective.
If you’ve been curious about these so-called miracle drugs, this is the video you need to watch before making any decisions.
