About this episode

This episode explains the hidden stressors affecting GLP-1 results and how menopause impacts nutrition.

If you started a GLP-1 and your results aren't what you expected, this episode is going to explain why. Most women come into a GLP-1 already carrying hidden stressors that work against their results before the medication ever has a chance to do its job. In this episode, I break down the four categories of hidden stress, what a GLP-1 actually does and doesn't do, how menopause changes the way your body handles food, and what your body actually needs on this medication. This is Week 1 of the FUEL Method series. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who are on a GLP-1 and want to understand what's actually going on in their body. 00:00 Podcast Intro 01:10 FUEL Method Series 01:44 Missing GLP-1 Nutrition Talk 03:04 Hidden Stressors Blocking Results 04:02 Quick Quiz Break 04:44 Four Stress Categories Explained 06:39 What GLP-1 Really Does 07:48 Menopause Changes Ignored 09:59 Build the Right Plate 11:30 Hydration and Electrolytes 12:14 Program and Next Steps 14:02 Wrap Up and Outro Check out the full show notes at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-150-glp-1-nutrition-what-your-doctor-didnt-tell-you-before-starting-a-glp-1-fuel-foundations-of-nutrition Connect with Cindi…
