GLP-1 Weight Loss: Protein, Hunger & Late-Night Cravings
Description
GLP-1 medications may reduce appetite—but what happens when the urge to snack at night is still there?
In this episode of Trend Talk, we asked holistic pharmacist Larry what he considers most important while navigating reduced appetite on a GLP-1.
His first priority: protein.
When you are eating less, making protein a priority can help support lean muscle and make the food you do eat more intentional.
But Larry also points to something that is easy to overlook: late-night cravings may not always come from physical hunger. Sometimes the mind still expects the familiar routine of an evening snack—even when the stomach isn’t asking for food.
The question becomes: Are you actually hungry, or are you responding to a habit or craving?
We discuss why protein deserves attention during the day and why recognizing the difference between physical hunger and a mental urge to snack can be an important part of changing your routine.
