You can't scroll through your feed for five seconds without seeing someone talking about Ozempic, Wegovy, or the newest GLP-1 drug.

But here's what nobody is telling you: your body was already designed to make its own version of this appetite-suppressing hormone. 

However, most of us have stopped feeding the good bacteria responsible for producing it.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the gut-centric theory of hunger, a fascinating concept that completely changed the way I think about appetite, cravings, and weight management. 

Plus, I'll share what happened when I personally experimented with a specific category of food for my upcoming book and experienced something I can only describe as... injecting GLP-1. Without the injection.

On this episode, you’ll learn:  

  • The science behind what GLP-1 actually is (1:40)
  • The real reason you feel like you can’t stop eating (and what you can do to stop it)  (4:33)
  • All about the jaw-dropping Chinese study where volunteers minimized their hunger (9:03)
  • Exactly which foods crank up your body's natural GLP-1 production (11:29)
  • The one food category I added to my own diet that had me leaving half my meal on the plate (13:43)
