Notas do episódio
Dealing with constipation, nausea, or bloating on a GLP-1 like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound?
You are definitely not alone.
Digestive side effects are some of the most common challenges people experience on GLP-1 medications—but there’s a huge difference between expected side effects and feeling miserable all the time.
In this episode, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 expert Gianna breaks down the science behind GLP-1 digestive side effects, including why they happen, what evidence-based strategies can actually help, and the biggest mistakes that may be making symptoms worse.
We’re covering:
- Why GLP-1 medications can cause constipation, nausea, and bloating
- How delayed gastric emptying impacts digestion
- Why under-eating can actually worsen side effects
- What to eat when nausea makes food unappealing
- Evidence-based strategies for constipation relief
- How hydration and meal structure affect symptoms
- The truth about fiber on GLP-1s
- When side effects are no longer considered “normal”
- The social media advice you should probably ignore
Whether you’re taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, this episode will help you better understand what’s happening in your body—and how to support your digestion without extreme restriction or fear.
