I will fully admit I have been a skeptic and naysayer when it comes to these medications. I admit I looked at these drugs as another Oprah or Kardashian fad…here today…gone tomorrow…But I was wrong.  Enter Longevity Fest 2024 in Las Vegas this past year where “all the buzz” was GLP-1 agonists. The research in regards to not only weight loss but many other medical conditions was mind blowing.  Since then I have had the opportunity to provide this protocol to a number of patients with great results.   Drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro etc.  These drugs were initially developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. GLP-1 agonists mimic the action of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) in the body. This hormone plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels by enhancing insulin secretion, reducing glucagon release, and slowing gastric emptying, which together help lower blood glucose levels.
