Back to Episodes128 - What GLP-1s Do to Your Body & Brain with Dr. Alexandra Sowa
Description
It's the most talked-about drug in a generation, but do we actually understand how it works? This week, we are joined by Dr. Alexandra Sowa, author of The Ozempic Revolution, to pull back the curtain on the GLP-1 phenomenon.
We move past the Hollywood headlines to explore how these medications are fundamentally changing our understanding of biology, willpower, and chronic disease. Whether you are considering the medication, are already on it, or are a skeptic, Dr. Sowa's evidence-based approach offers a roadmap for navigating this new era of metabolic health.
-
The biology of weight: Why it was never just "calories in, calories out."
-
How GLP-1s work in the brain and gut to reset the body's "set point."
-
The stigma of "the easy way out" and why we need to change the narrative around obesity.
-
Dr. Sowa's "SoWell" approach: Integrating medication with nutrition and long-term metabolic health.
-
What the future of medicine looks like in a world where obesity is treated as a hormonal condition.
