If your go-to meals suddenly taste strange, certain foods turn your stomach, or heartburn has become a constant companion since starting a GLP-1, it’s not in your head. These are some of the most common (and least discussed) side effects people experience on GLP-1s.

Reflux, food aversions, and taste changes can make eating feel complicated and even frustrating. One day you’re fine, the next your go-to dinner leaves you nauseated or nothing sounds appealing at all. The good news? These shifts are temporary, manageable, and often a sign your body is adjusting to a new way of processing food.

In this episode, we’ll unpack why these side effects happen, what to look out for, and practical ways to ease the discomfort so you can feel more in control of your meals again. Plus, learn how to submit your side effect questions for Season 3 of Behind the Curtain, and get details on the January 30/30 Program enrollment!
