Get ready for one of the most insightful conversations we’ve ever had on The Fit Physician Podcast. We’re joined by Dr. Spencer Nadolsky—one of the most trusted, respected, and sought-after voices in obesity and metabolic medicine—where he deep dives into all things GLP-1 medications: what they do, who they help, and what’s hype. Spencer talks about the evidence and why these drugs have become so popular, the brain-level impact on “food noise,” why they are changing the way we understand obesity as a disease, and what physicians and patients actually need to know about safety, side effects, micro-dosing debates, metabolic health, cardiovascular risk, perimenopause/menopause considerations, and long-term use.
