“Doc, I just don't feel like drinking alcohol anymore."
Addiction psychiatrist Dr. Nishant Kumar kept hearing it. Patient after patient, unprompted. And nothing in their lives had changed… except one thing. They'd started a GLP-1.
What does that tell us about the brain, addiction, and our relationship with food?
In this episode, Dr. Kumar unpacks exactly that. We talk about what GLP-1s are revealing about cravings and the brain, how to recognize when your relationship with food has become a problem, how to find the right help, and the lifestyle factors that matter more than you might expect.
