Why Some World Cup Athletes Are Using GLP-1s | Ashley Koff, RD
Notas do episódio
If you have talked about weight in the last few years, you’ve had to mention Ozempic, Mounjaro, or any other GLP-1. And of course, you had to agree that GLP-1s are the worst thing to happen to weight loss since someone convinced us that celery has negative calories.
But are these medications really the villain everyone makes them out to be?
Ashley Koff has been studying GLP-1 and GIP since 2004, long before Ozempic became a household name. She calls these medications hormone replacement therapy and builds her entire approach around that idea.
During our conversation, Ashley discussed a client who lost 60 pounds on a GLP-1 and had to relearn her hormones to keep it off. Somewhere in that story is a scale that lies to you and a seven-day trick that can undo years of artificial sweeteners.
"Weight loss is disempowering by design." ~ Ashley Koff, RD
