Ep.189: GLP-1s and What Athletes Should Know

GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic and Wegovy) have been making headlines for weight loss, but what do they mean for athletes? In this episode, Dina and Bob unpack how these medications work, why they’re being used beyond diabetes, and the potential implications for fueling, recovery, and performance. We also explore nutrient deficiencies with appetite suppression, potential muscle loss, and why personalized guidance matters more than ever.
