🎙️ Slow Metabolism, GLP-1s, and Peptides: What Actually Works and What Doesn’t with Dr. Spencer Nadolsky
Have you ever been told your metabolism is “slow” or wondered if GLP-1s like Ozempic or peptides like NAD+ and BPC-157 could support your Hashimoto’s healing?
In this episode of Hashimoto’s Nutrition Rx, Nataliia is joined by Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, a board-certified obesity and lipid specialist (and fellow Hashimoto’s patient!), to uncover the truth about metabolism, weight loss resistance, thyroid health, and how medications and peptides fit into it all.
What You’ll Learn:
The real deal on “slow metabolism” and thyroid function
How GLP-1s work and why food noise matters more than willpower
Common mistakes people make with these meds (hair loss, constipation, muscle loss)
When peptides like BPC-157 and NAD+ might help or not
Debunking myths like “starvation mode,” cortisol-induced weight gain, and small meals
The power of resistance training to protect your metabolism
Why individualized care and medical supervision are non-negotiable
What microdosing GLP-1s actually means and who it may benefit
Why You Shouldn’t Miss This: This is one of our most practical, myth-busting episodes yet. Dr. Nadolsky brings both personal experience and clinical clarity to a topic full of noise. If you’re overwhelmed by what’s on Instagram or unsure where to start, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
Try This After Listening:
Reflect on whether your weight challenges may be more about appetite regulation than metabolism
Prioritize resistance training as part of your long-term thyroid and metabolic health
Monitor for symptoms like constipation, hair loss, or fatigue if you’re using GLP-1s—and seek support if needed
