#140 - Unlock Your Body’s Hidden Power: Natural GLP-1 Secrets for Ultimate Gut Health and Weight Loss!
Have you ever wondered what GLP-1 agonists are and why they’re making headlines? In this episode, we dive deep into the science of GLP-1, a hormone critical for controlling metabolism, appetite, and blood sugar levels.
Discover how it’s produced in your gut, its connection to your microbiome, and why medications like semaglutide and liraglutide are becoming household names in weight management and diabetes care.
But here’s the exciting part—you don’t need a prescription to support your GLP-1 production! Learn how specific foods, probiotics, and lifestyle changes can naturally boost your body’s ability to make this essential hormone, helping you achieve sustainable weight loss, improved energy, and vibrant health.
Probiotics mentioned:
Bifidobacterium adolescentis, Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Saccharomyces boulardii (for during and post-antibiotic use)
