Simple answers before you ever book an appointment

What are GLP-1s?

They mimic a hormone your gut already makes. When levels rise, your brain gets the message that you’re full sooner.

  • Cravings taper off within 1–2 weeks
  • Blood sugar swings calm down

Will they work for me?

If you’re stuck losing weight or constantly hungry, GLP-1s help you eat less without white-knuckle dieting.

  • Best for BMI 27+ or metabolic risk
  • Pairs with movement + protein

Are they safe?

Yes—when you ramp dosing slowly and watch for dehydration, nausea, or under-fueling.

  • Dose guardrails and checklists included
  • Know when to call your provider
