Many women in midlife are discovering that GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy have been game-changers for improving metabolic health—but what happens when these medications become unavailable or too expensive? I'm excited to share five powerful, science-backed alternatives that can help you naturally stimulate GLP-1 production in your body without prescriptions. From the surprising benefits of a rare sugar called allulose that mimics GLP-1 effects without spiking insulin, to a New Zealand hops extract that raises GLP-1 levels for four hours after ingestion, these alternatives offer real solutions for women looking to maintain their fat loss progress and metabolic healing. We also dive into how specific probiotics, the protein-fiber combination, and berberine can naturally boost your body's GLP-1 production while addressing underlying metabolic issues that contribute to weight gain in our 40s and beyond.   What you’ll learn: Why GLP-1 medications work so effectively and how they impact your metabolic health How Allulose, a rare sugar, naturally stimulates GLP-1 secretion without raising blood sugar or insulin The power of a specialized hops extract that can keep GLP-1 elevated for four hours Which specific probiotic strain boosts GLP-1 production and improves gut health How combining protein and fiber creates a one-two punch for natural GLP-1 stimulation The science behind berberine as "nature's Ozempic" for blood sugar and appetite regulation Essential lifestyle factors that maximize results when using GLP-1 alternatives Love the Podcast?
