The Natural Ozempic In Your Gut (Eat THIS To Switch It On) : 1404

from The Human Upgrade: Biohacking for Longevity & Performance

Your gut already has its own version of Ozempic, and it’s been doing this job long before injections existed.In this video, I explain how appetite is actually regulated, why synthetic shortcuts often create new problems over time, and what has quietly shut down the body’s natural satiety signals for so many people.Once you understand the pathway drugs are trying to imitate, the question stops being “how do I eat less?” and becomes “why was my body blocked from doing this in the first place?”This is about restoring a system, not overpowering it.Chapters0:00 - Introduction: Your Body’s Natural Ozempic0:53 - Hunger Is a Hormone Problem5:08 - How to Fix Your Hormone Signals7:28 - Why Ozempic Often Backfires10:54 - The Resistant Starch Solution15:03 - How to Use Resistant Starch18:12 - Rebuilding Your Gut Environment19:31 - Lifestyle Support for Gut HealthResources:  • Dave Asprey's Latest News | Go to https://daveasprey.com/ to join Inside Track today. • Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/discount/dave15  • My Daily Supplements: SuppGrade Labs (15% Off)  • Favorite Blue Light Blocking Glasses: TrueDark (15% Off)  • Dave Asprey’s BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com  • Dave Asprey’s New Book – Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated • Upgrade Collective: https://www.ourupgradecollective.com  • Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com  • 40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.com Connect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dave explains that GLP 1 is your gut’s built-in appetite off switch, why calorie cutting and even Ozempic can fail to fix the underlying gut brain signaling, and how to restore natural satiety by rebuilding the microbiome with resistant starch to boost butyrate, plus smart meal timing, sleep, and stress control.
