File it under "you know someone is true friend when," category, but when the infamous sulphur burps of a GLP-1 diet hit me, I had to know...

Women make up the majority of GLP-1 users, meaning they take medications like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro,...

GLP-1 medications are poised to be a $125 billion industry by 2030, and that has a lot of people wondering how to get the same boost you can get in drugs like Ozempic and Zepbound naturally.

Losing a lot of weight — whether through lifestyle changes, medication like GLP-1s, or surgery — often brings an unexpected side effect:...

People love to talk about weight loss wins with GLP-1s like semaglutide or tirzepatide. The before-and-afters are dramatic. But what you don’t see in those pictures? The lean muscle quietly vanishing under the scale’s praise. Unless you're prioritizing the right fuel—especially protein—that loss can be permanent and problematic. It might sound like a scare tactic to get you to eat healthily, but the risks are all too real.

If you’re on a GLP-1 medication like semaglutide or tirzepatide, chances are your stomach has some thoughts about it. Maybe it’s the sudden nausea, the infamous "sulfur burps," or that weirdly full feeling after just a few bites. As more people turn to these meds for weight loss or blood sugar control, a new question is popping up: can probiotics or digestive enzymes help with the GLP-1 side effects?

Despite the science, support, and proven outcomes, people taking these medications still face skepticism, judgment, and flat-out rudeness.

My first attempt to get Zepbound through LillyDirect at the discounted price felt like a triangulated game of "Who's On First?" I faced a...

Before I started taking Zepbound in January 2025, I did weeks of research to find out what it would take to seize this moment and reshape my poor relationship with food. As a newly 50 year old woman in the throws of perimenopause, I had no time to lose. Here’s a breakdown of the most important vitamins and minerals to keep on your radar, especially if you’re trying to minimize GLP-1 side effects and get the most from your journey.

If you're on a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound, you already know these drugs can do a number on your appetite—and your...

Here’s a riddle: What makes so much noise in your head that it controls every step you take—yet you don’t actually hear it until it’s gone? The buzzword is "food noise," and if you're taking GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, or Mounjaro, you're likely feeling very seen right now. But what is food noise, really?

The rapid rise of GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) has transformed obesity and diabetes care. Yet, as more people use these medications, a common experience emerges: the GLP-1 weight loss plateau.

Hydration for a GLP-1 diet is one of the most overlooked but critical parts of making the meds work with your body, not against it. And spoiler: it’s not just about drinking more water. Electrolytes matter. Timing matters. Plus, it could be the very issue causing some of the side effects you're blaming on the medication.

Have you heard of "Ozempic Face"? It’s the phrase that’s been circulating on social media and in dermatology clinics—used to describe the hollowed cheeks, loose skin, and overall facial thinning that can happen during fast, GLP–1–assisted weight loss. And while it’s often blamed on fat loss alone, there’s another key factor: collagen loss. That's why you need to choose a GLP-1 collagen supplement to limit the "sag."

If you're on a GLP-1 medication—or thinking about starting one—you’ve probably heard about the importance of protein along with appetite...
