138. Dietitians Discuss OZEMPIC® & MOUNJARO®

Nutrition Awareness

With our clients asking us about weight loss drugs like Ozempic, Mounajro, and Wegovy, we decided to share our thoughts. In a nutshell, these drugs WORK in congruence to diet and exercise, but does that mean everyone should take them? Are they the "cheat code" to weight loss? Our goal for this episode to is be both objective about the science and honest about our feelings. These are such new drugs, and our opinions are subject to change overtime. We hope these video gives you some insight from two nutrition professionals who talk about the physical, mental, and emotional impact of weight every day with over thousands of clients. Expect to Learn: ... differences between Ozempic® , Wegovy® , and Mounajro® ... how the drugs work for weight loss and diabetes management ...who the meds are for ...a brief history of weight loss drugs ....the intrinsic mechanisms our bodies use to fight weight loss (& why many people regain weight after any kind of fat loss) ....the negative impact weight loss drugs have on beauty standards when abused ...our concerns about "black market" drugs ...the importance of eating protein and staying hydrated on a weight loss drug ...
