If you have questions about navigating weight loss medications and their side effects, Whole Health is here to help! Don’t miss our upcoming free webinar Navigating Weight Loss Medications presented by Dr. Katie DiNello on September 24th!
Over the past year, you have likely seen ads for GLP-1 medications (such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Rybelsus). These medications were first developed to treat Diabetes and ideally should be used to complement healthy lifestyle and dietary habits. GLP-1 medications mimic a hormone called GLP-1 which is released in the gut. This hormone tells the pancreas to make more insulin to help control sugar levels which slows down our digestion so we feel full. GLP-1 medications have gained tremendous popularity for weight loss, having recently been approved by the FDA for treating obesity.
While these medications may be beneficial for some, they also come with their own risk of side effects. Because GLP-1’s interfere with the absorption and utilization of essential vitamins and minerals in the body, they can potentially lead to nutrient depletions and muscle loss over time.
How do these medications work and what is the naturopathic protocol for maintaining muscle and navigating side effects? Dr. Katie DiNello, ND does a deep dive into the world of navigating weight loss medications during her informative webinar on Tuesday, September 24th at 7 PM EST.
Dr. DiNello will cover topics such as:
- What are your options for weight loss medications
- Navigating side effects
- Preserving muscle mass while on these medications/ any type of weight loss
