Most GLP-1 patients never get dietary advice. That’s not a small slip-up. That’s the whole protocol missing.
GLP-1s slow digestion and shift hunger signals. They do NOTHING for the muscle mass you’re losing while on them, or the nutrition your body needs to actually use the medication well.
At Young Naturopathic Center in Los Gatos, every GLP-1 patient gets a VO2 max test. That’s how we figure out your metabolic baseline, and how we build the aftercare when you’re ready to taper off.
If you’re using GLP-1s short-term, you need to know what you should be eating.
