Why Hormones Matter Even on GLP-1 Medications: The Hidden Key to Weight Loss
Description
In this episode, I dive deep into why getting your hormones checked is crucial for successful weight loss—even if you're on GLP-1 medications (Wegovy, Ozempic, Semaglutide, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Tirzepatide). We often focus on diet and exercise, but if your hormones are out of balance, they could be the hidden roadblock preventing you from shedding those extra pounds. I break down how hormonal imbalances, like thyroid issues, insulin resistance, the sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone) and cortisol levels, can impact your metabolism and appetite regulation, making it harder to lose weight, even with the powerful GLP-1 medications. Tune in to learn why addressing your hormonal health is just as important as the medications you're taking, and how a simple blood test could be the missing piece of the puzzle in your weight loss journey. Don't let an unseen imbalance hold you back!
