In this episode of the GLP-1 Hub podcast, I interview Gretchen Zimmermann, a registered dietitian. We discuss the role of GLP-1 medications in diabetes and obesity management, the challenges of healthcare costs for employers, and the importance of personalized nutrition.

Special guest and Registered Dietitian, Gretchen Zimmermann, joins us in Part 2 to discuss the nutritional and clinical precautions that should be considered when taking a GLP-1, especially patients with a history of eating disorders.

Gretchen has spent her career cutting through the noise around obesity and nutrition. We bust some of the most common myths about weight loss, obesity, and “quick fix” diets, plus talk about why lasting health is a whole lot more complex than calorie counts and willpower.

In this episode of Health Bite, Dr. Adrienne Youdim welcomes Gretchen Zimmermann, who shares her insights on the importance of proper nutrition while using GLP-1s, the challenges patients face with appetite changes, and how to mitigate potential side effects through dietary choices.
