Summary
Happy New Year! To kick off 2026, Elizabeth welcomes registered dietitian and integrative nutrition expert Ashley Koff, RD, founder of The Better Nutrition Program and author of the forthcoming Your Best Shot: The Personalized System for Optimal Weight Health - GLP-1 Shot or Not. With over 25 years in the field, Ashley offers a grounded, science-backed perspective on the “weight health era,” especially the growing conversation around GLP-1 medications and metabolic hormones. In this episode, Ashley demystifies the hype around weight loss drugs and reveals why the real focus should be on your body’s own “switch”, the weight health hormones that regulate hunger, satisfaction, and metabolism. She breaks down the importance of looking beyond the number on the scale, explaining why bone, muscle, and visceral fat composition matter so much more.
