What Is Food Noise? A Dietitian's Personal Experience with GLP-1 Medications

GLP-1 medications are taking the world by storm, but the conversations surrounding them can lack nuance. That’s why I’m doing a 3-part podcast series with three different dietitians all about these drugs.ICYMI, we kicked things off with GLP-1 Medications: What Active People Need to Know.The series continues in episode 138 with Summer Kessel, RD, CSOWM, a Certified Specialist in Obesity and Weight Management and GLP-1 nutrition expert. Summer also has personal experience taking GLP-1s herself, which brings a unique perspective to this conversation.Summer and I discuss:What food noise is, and how it differs from hunger or cravingsHer personal experience with obesity, weight loss, and taking GLP-1sOverlap between food noise, chronic dieting, and disordered eating patternsWho should (and shouldn't) be on these drugs Risks and benefits of GLP-1 use in different populationsWhy inappropriate GLP-1 use cases shouldn't overshadow people who genuinely need these drugsHow weight stigma and judgment can make GLP-1 conversations even more difficultWhy compassion, individualized care, and ongoing professional support matter I hope this episode helps you better understand GLP-1 medications and the experiences of those who use them.
