ep 37- Weight Loss Drugs, Parasites, and Metabolic Mayhem

from The Mineral Way · host Dave Michaels

Ben Fuchs and Dave Michaels dive into the rapidly expanding world of GLP-1 weight loss drugs, including newer compounds like retatrutides, and what they may be doing beneath the surface. The conversation explores parasites, inflamed joints, liver and kidney regeneration, impaired nutrient absorption, and the concept of "sludgy blood" as a sign of deeper metabolic stress. Rather than chasing quick fixes, Ben breaks down how supporting the body nutritionally may be key to real healing and long-term metabolic balance.
