We have been using GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide (aka Ozempic) for about two years now. We have learned a lot and we still have a lot left to learn. But one thing we feel pretty confident saying now is that this is not a fad, it is a breakthrough!

On this episode, I am joined by my fellow naturopathic doctor, Spice Lussier, my colleague and the practice owner at Desert Wellness Center in Tempe, Arizona. Just recently we went to a conference all about peptides, like semaglutide, in Boston and learned about all the most recent revelations in this space. Today we’ll tell you what we learned about — including the underlying importance of basic lifestyle choices and gut health, peptides' potential to improve inflammation and brain health, and new peptides under development. And, of course, we’ll get into everything we’ve learned here at Desert Wellness over 2 years of treating patients with GLP-1 agonists — including the incredible way it addresses the gut-brain connection; the importance of an individualized approach, building muscle, and eating protein; and even the possibility of micro-dosing. 

So if you have any experience with semaglutide or other peptides, or any interest in them, stay tuned because there is a lot to learn!
