But are we asking the right questions about long-term health? In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz breaks down the science behind GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro, including what they do well, where concerns are emerging, and how fasting mimics many of the same metabolic benefits naturally. Dr. Mindy explores: • The connection between GLP-1 drugs and muscle loss • Why women over 40 need to think differently about metabolism • New research linking GLP-1s to declining bone density • How fasting impacts glucagon, ketones, and fat burning • The importance of protein, refeeding, and resistance training • Why metabolic flexibility matters more than rapid weight loss • Natural ways to stimulate your body’s own GLP-1 production This episode is not about fear or shame. It’s about helping you understand your options so you can make informed decisions for your body, your hormones, and your long-term health.
