GLP-1 agonist treatments have marked a turning point in the management of obesity. But, as with any therapeutic tool, it is not just about losing weight; although these drugs offer very good results, they also carry a great responsibility: avoiding the loss of metabolic health along the way.

Because, what happens to muscle? Why is it so important to ensure adequate protein intake? What role does fiber play when we eat less? And which micronutrients should be monitored, such as iron, vitamin B12, vitamin B1, vitamin D, or choline?

In this episode, we talk about the part of the treatment that is discussed the least: how to ensure that weight loss is also fat loss... and not a loss of health. Because losing weight should not mean losing strength, functionality, or increasing the risk of nutritional deficiencies.

If you or someone close to you is following a treatment with a GLP-1 agonist, I believe this episode can help you understand how to support it through physiology and scientific evidence to obtain the best results. And if you also want to delve deeper into other aspects related to these treatments, I recommend you also listen to episodes 77 and 111, where you will find complementary information that will help you better understand how they work, their benefits, and how to use them in the safest and most effective way possible.

As I always say: know more to fear less and choose better.
