A Christian Dietitian’s Perspective on GLP-1s with Liesel Maddox
About this episode
Kasey Shuler interviews Liesel Maddox about GLP-1 medications and their implications for weight loss and health from a Christian perspective.
In this episode of the Joyful Health Show, I talk with registered dietician, nutritionist, and certified eating disorder specialist Liesel Maddox about GLP-1s. Are they a magic pill for weight loss, and what are the concerns around taking these medications?

Can we safely use them to lose 10-15lbs? Can you take a GLP-1 indefinitely? We believe you are free in Christ to make informed decisions about your health. May this episode serve to give you more fuel for prayer as you consider the role of GLP-1s in your life.
