Episode #225: A Deep Dive into Fat Loss Peptides
You’ve heard of Ozempic and Monjarou, but do you know how they work, as well as the benefits, and the downsides?
In this episode, I discuss the use of fat loss peptides, specifically semaglutide and tirzepatide. Tune in as I explore the benefits, differences, and side effects of these compounds. This episode emphasizes the importance of using them properly and making lifestyle changes to achieve long-term weight loss. They do have some highlights - the potential health benefits of these peptides, such as improved insulin sensitivity and heart health can be game changers. Overall this episode provides guidance on protein intake, exercise, and gradual weight loss. You’ll learn who should not use these compounds as well as tips for safe usage and tapering off.
