The GLP 1 Conversation No One Is Having with Olivia Stivers, APRN
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
GLP-1 medications have become one of the most talked-about tools in health and weight loss, but are we having the right conversation? In this episode, I sit down with Olivia Stivers, a Family Nurse Practitioner with a background in both primary care and nutrition-focused health optimization, to discuss the realities of GLP-1 medications.
Together, we explore:
- Who GLP-1 medications may be appropriate for, and who they may not be
- The risks of chasing rapid weight loss without addressing underlying health
- Muscle loss, metabolism, and long-term body composition concerns
- Why nutrition, strength training, and lifestyle habits still matter
- What patients need to know before starting, during use, and when coming off these medications
- The unintended downstream side effects of these medications
**This is not a pro-GLP-1 or anti-GLP-1 conversation. It's a nuanced discussion about informed decision-making, sustainable health, and helping people understand the full picture before they jump on the latest trends.
