Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney Show!In this solo episode, I’m diving deep into one of the most talked-about topics in wellness right now, GLP-1 medications, including Ozempic, Wegovy, and semaglutide. There’s a lot of information (and misinformation) circulating about these drugs, and I want to explain how they actually work, when they can be incredibly effective, and when they can cause more harm than good.I break down the glucose-insulin connection, what insulin resistance really means, and why inflammation often begins with blood sugar imbalance. I also share how these medications can be used as a powerful tool for improving insulin sensitivity, reducing inflammation, and supporting hormone balance, when used thoughtfully and at the right time.In this episode, I discuss:<ul><li>How glucose and insulin function together to fuel your body</li><li>What happens when insulin resistance develops and why it leads to fatigue, weight gain, and inflammation</li><li>How GLP-1 medications like semaglutide work to increase insulin sensitivity</li><li>Why microdosing or using the lowest therapeutic dose can be safer and more effective</li><li>The difference between short-term weight loss and long-term metabolic health</li><li>Common side effects and how to avoid them with proper dosing and timing</li><li>The importance of building muscle and eating enough protein before starting a GLP-1 medication</li><li>How these medications can reduce “food noise” and improve mental clarity</li><li>The unexpected benefits for hormone balance, PCOS, and menopause symptoms</li><li>Why GLP-1s should be seen as a supportive tool, not a quick fix</li></ul>Whether you’re curious about GLP-1 medications for weight management, inflammation, or metabolic health, this episode will help you understand how to use them in a way that truly supports your body’s healing process. <a href='https://www.thekinneyclinic.com/book'>https://www.thekinneyclinic.com/book</a>
