Gut Check: Exploring GLP-1 Agonists and Microbiome Health
In today’s episode, we’re diving into an exciting topic: how GLP-1 agonists, like Ozempic and Wegovy, are not only transforming metabolic health but also influencing the gut microbiome. We’ll explore the science behind it and practical ways to optimize your health. What Are GLP-1 Agonists?GLP-1 agonists are medications initially developed to manage diabetes, but they’ve […]
GLP-1 Agonists for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Imagine a treatment that not only helps manage diabetes but also holds the potential to reverse kidney failure — what was once thought to be impossible. The recent FLOW study has remarkable groundbreaking evidence that GLP-1 receptor agonists can significantly improve kidney function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. And while researchers try to understand […]
