Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You already know GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound can be game changers for weight loss. But could they also be quietly protecting your brain from addiction?
In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down a landmark new study published in Frontiers in Psychiatry, the largest real-world analysis of its kind, which found that people taking GLP-1 medications were dramatically less likely to develop alcohol, opioid, nicotine, and cocaine use disorders. The numbers are stunning, and the brain science behind them is even more fascinating.
Whether you're on a GLP-1 medication, considering one, or simply trying to understand your own cravings and habits, this episode offers a compassionate, science-backed perspective that might just shift the way you think about willpower, the brain, weight, wine, and behavior change.
