248. Are GLP-1s a Catalyst or a Crutch?

Andrea Allen Season 1 Episode 248

Andrea dives into a topic she’s been closely following for a long time: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. As a personal trainer and nutrition coach, she breaks down what GLP-1s are, how they work, their benefits and side effects, and most importantly, whether they serve as a catalyst or a crutch in someone’s health journey. Drawing from real-life scenarios, client experiences, and extensive research, Andrea brings a clear, thoughtful perspective to a complex and often controversial subject. This episode offers practical insight for anyone considering GLP-1s or supporting someone who is.
