Key Takeaways
- GLP-1 agonists (like semaglutide) are powerful tools for weight loss and metabolic health—discuss with your doctor if you have obesity or insulin resistance.
- Monitor for side effects (nausea, pancreatitis risk)—start with lowest effective dose and titrate slowly.
- Pair GLP-1s with resistance training and high-protein diets to preserve muscle mass during weight loss.
Supplements & Protocols Mentioned
- Protein intake: Aim for 1.6-2.2g/kg of body weight daily to counteract muscle loss.
- Electrolytes: Supplement if experiencing nausea or appetite suppression to avoid deficiencies.
Bottom Line
GLP-1 agonists can be transformative for metabolic health but require careful implementation—prioritize muscle preservation and medical supervision.
