The GLP-1 Explosion: Truth Behind the Hype

from The Heidi St. John Podcast · host Heidi St. John

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and semaglutide are everywhere right now and so is the fear surrounding them. Are they dangerous? Are they a breakthrough? And why is the internet so divided?Today I’m joined by Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood from the Functional Medical Institute to talk honestly about what GLP-1s actually do, who they’re designed to help, and why so much of the conversation online is driven by hype and fear instead of facts.We also dive into ketones, blood sugar and mood swings in kids, snoring and sleep apnea, hormones for men in their 40s, cold plunges and saunas, and why so many people are struggling with anxiety right now. Most importantly, we talk about how to become “hope dealers” in a culture that profits from fear.If you’re looking for clear thinking, practical health wisdom, and encouragement in a noisy world, this episode is for you.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.
