Anybody that takes anything by big pharma deserves whatever they get. How about putting the fork down and make wiser choices.

Dear @ro please don't oversimplify the explanation by reducing it to "some hormones". Explain the connection to insulin and pancreas and insulin resistance. We can handle it and deserve to understand the process. It helps us explain it to our loved ones. ❤️

What if We're Using GLP-1 Medications All Wrong? Drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are transforming the landscape of medical weight loss, but could their side effects be a sign that we’re not harnessing their full therapeutic potential? In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Ben Bikman (Benjamin Bikman), metabolic health researcher and professor at BYU, joins Dr. Bret Scher (Bret Scher, MD) to explore a powerful new framework: using GLP-1 medications at low doses and for short durations to help curb carbohydrate cravings, break addictive eating cycles, and support long-term metabolic health. Rather than prescribing high doses indefinitely, Dr. Bikman proposes a more targeted approach: - Microdosing GLP-1s to enhance satiety and reduce cravings for processed carbs - Using the medication as a temporary metabolic tool to support transitions to lower-carb diets - Reducing long-term risks such as muscle loss, mood changes, and diminishing effectiveness - Emphasizing the importance of habit change, insulin regulation, and muscle preservation This conversation reimagines GLP-1s not as a lifelong solution, but as a catalyst for sustainable, low-insulin lifestyles, aligned with ketogenic and metabolic therapies. 📌 Could a 90-day microdosing protocol replace years of medication? Learn how this metabolic-first strategy could empower patients to reclaim their health, without becoming dependent on medication for life. #GLP1 #Ozempic #Wegovy #Mounjaro #BenBikman #MetabolicHealth #Microdosing #InsulinResistance #LowCarbDiet #KetogenicTherapy #MedicalWeightLoss #BretScher #MetabolicMind Expert Featured: Dr. Benjamin Bikman Benjamin Bikman Papers/Articles Mentioned: Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.

GLP-1s eat your muscle” — I hear this all the time. Here’s the truth: GLP-1s (like Tirzepatide) put the body in a catabolic state for fat loss… just like calorie deficits and long cardio sessions do. They all shift you toward breaking tissue down. The solution isn’t avoiding GLP-1s, cardio, or deficits — it’s intentionally balancing them with anabolic signals: lifting heavy, hitting high protein (1g per lb of goal weight), and strategic recovery. Muscle loss isn’t automatic on GLP-1s — it’s optional when you train and eat like it matters. Drop a 🔥 if you’re lifting while on GLP-1s or in a deficit. What’s your go-to way to protect muscle?
