This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, we’re diving into the world of gut health, metabolism, and the hottest new trend in health: GLP-1 medications! 🎉 I had the pleasure of chatting with the amazing Shefaly Ravula, a PA-C and founder of Precision Gut Health, who’s on a mission to transform gut and metabolic health using a fusion of culinary medicine, advanced labs, and a whole lot of passion. 🌱✨

We’re tackling everything from the role of GLP-1 agonists (think Ozempic and Wegovy) to how gut health impacts metabolism and longevity. Curious about how these medications work and why they’ve become so popular lately? Shefaly breaks it all down, including why supporting your body’s natural GLP-1 production with fiber and polyphenols is just as important.

It’s a juicy episode filled with practical tips on managing gut health, exploring the science behind GLP-1, and why it’s essential to approach weight loss holistically. Plus, we’re dishing on healing spices and their magic in supporting gut health! 🌶️💪
