From everything I heard and read, GLP1 injections block your hunger pranks or appetite; therefore they help you eat less. the medication also effects our brain and can give you back the ability to chose to exercise or correct eating patterns yourself. What it doesnt do is fix your metabolism. If it's for weight loss, you NEED to do strength training AND eat enough to build muscle. This will change your metabolism, helps you burn more calories because your body is no longer in a constant state of starvation, makes you happier since you dont have to watch every little piece you eat and it makes you healthier. If you change nothing in your life, take GLP1s and go off later, you will likely just regain what you lost.

Hi Dr Kate, 3 years ago I started Keto doing most everything you mentioned. I lost 45 lbs. and dropped A1c from 7.9 to 5.2, Trigs from 252 to 55, Hdl up from 45 to 90. After a year I started leaning toward Ketovore and Carnivore and gained 20 lbs. back in less that 2 years. Seems if I eat more than 1000 calories/day I gain weight. I do OMAD or 2MAD also and the weight I gain is always belly fat. Just switched back to the original plan, more veg, less meat, Berberine, AVC, nuts, etc. I also have most Hypothyroid symptoms (runs in the family) which may be part of the problem. I look like a skinny 62 YO guy that is pregnant but has great labs, go figure.

Thank you for the wonderful information. Where can I find the Kate approved supplements?

Super helpful. My eating disorder therapist refers to glp-1 meds as "medical anorexia" which may be harsh but for someone with a history of eating disorders it is probably absolutely correct. It can be very tempting to want to use them to lose weight but I am trying to do it using real foods and supplements now (yes I have a history of anorexia but I'm considered obese now, after decades of not eating my body wants to hold on to every molecule of food I put in my mouth now and it's really stressful for me)

One of the products that you have suggested has green tea which is so good for our bodies, but, I cannot have caffeine. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you Dr Kate for this amazing teaching!

Thank you for sharing. I couldn’t find any of the links to the products you mentioned in the video can you please share

So I have a question about the pistachios. 83 g is about 2.9 oz. So an 8 oz bag of pistachios would be so we say three doses. At $9 a bag? How many doses of pistachio do I need to maintain to get the benefits I'm looking for ? That's one thing I find lacking. We talk about eating certain kind of foods to obtain certain kinds of nutrients or benefits. If it was medication I would have a dosage amount but if it's just food that I eat then how do I determine what I'm really getting ?
