Dr. Azam, founder of Daydream MD, completed his residency in Emergency Medicine at the Metropolitan/Harlem Emergency Medicine Residency program in New York before practicing emergency medicine nationwide. Drawing on that experience, he developed a comprehensive ketamine-assisted therapy practice and now blends functional medicine with personalized GLP-1 services to help patients achieve sustainable, biologically tailored health outcomes. In this conversation, Dr. Azam explores the emerging intersection of GLP-1 medications and psychedelic therapies, arguing that both create temporary windows for behavioral change that can be leveraged to improve long-term mental and metabolic health. He explains how GLP-1 medications act primarily on the brain's reward and craving circuits, reducing \"food noise\" while creating opportunities to reshape habits and addictive behaviors.

In this episode, you'll hear: How GLP-1 medications influence the brain's reward, craving, and motivation circuits Why Dr. Azam views GLP-1s and psychedelics as complementary therapies that each create windows for lasting behavioral change The potential role of GLP-1 medications in treating addiction alongside psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy What patients and clinicians should know about combining GLP-1 medications with ketami…","meta_description":"In this episode of the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast, Arsalan Azam, MD joins to unpack the intersection between psychedelics and GLP-1s.
