In this episode of The Whole Health Podcast, Dr. Kelly J. Blodgett, DMD, NMD, IBDM, and Megan Barnett, MS, CNS, sit down with renowned registered dietitian, USA Today bestselling author, and founder of The Better Nutrition Program, Ashley Koff, RD, to explore the rapidly evolving world of GLP-1 medications and metabolic health. Drawing from her new book Your Best Shot, Ashley shares why weight loss alone is often the wrong goal and explains the science behind GLP-1 hormones, personalized nutrition, and sustainable weight health. Together, they discuss common misconceptions about GLP-1 therapies, the role of digestion and hormones in overall wellness, and why a more individualized, whole-person approach is essential for long-term health.
Topics Discussed
• The Science Behind GLP-1 Medications
How GLP-1 and related hormones regulate blood sugar, appetite, inflammation, metabolism, and overall health—and why these medications are much more than weight-loss drugs.
• Weight Health vs. Weight Loss
Why focusing solely on the number on the scale misses the bigger picture of metabolic health, hormone function, digestion, and long-term wellness.
• Personalized Nutrition, Menopause & Metabolic Resilience
How nutrition, digestion, hormone changes, and individualized care can help support healthy aging, sustainable weight management, and better health outcomes.
