Description

Ads for Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound are all over our televisions (at least here in the US). But are these injectables really the key to losing weight and keeping it off?

In this episode, I'm digging into all of the science surrounding these popular weight-loss drugs, including

- the differences between each of them

- how they work (and don't work)

- the unwanted side effects that come from using these medications

- natural ways to increase your body's production of GLP-1

... and more!
