The conversation explores the seismic impact of GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy—and how functional medicine can pivot from a \"weight loss\" mindset to a \"weight health\" approach. Koff reframes these medications not as magic bullets, but as biosimilar hormone replacement tools that \"switch on\" receptor sites—without repairing the underlying ecosystem. She outlines a five-part Weight Health Hormone assessment and introduces a Physician–Dietitian–Health Coach triad to ensure sustainable outcomes. The episode challenges practitioners to stay \"agnostic about the agonist\" and instead focus on metabolic repair, patient education, and structured team-based care. About the Guest: Ashley Koff, RD is a registered dietitian and functional nutrition expert focused on metabolic health, personalized nutrition, and hormone signaling. She is the author of Your Best Shot and advocates for a \"Weight Health\" approach that integrates assessment, repair, and team-based implementation.
