In this episode, we sit down with Tina Haupert to talk through everything you've been wondering about GLP-1 and GIP medications. We're covering what these medications actually are and how they work, the rise of microdosing and why so many women are exploring that route, and how nutrition fits into the picture so you're not just relying on the medication alone.
We also get into the questions and concerns we hear most often, share some real life experiences (the good and the not-so-glamorous), and talk about what long term use can look like. Plus, how to find a legit source so you're not gambling on quality, safety, or results.
Whether you're just curious, already on a protocol, or trying to decide if this is right for you, this conversation is full of practical, no-judgment info.
