Talking to Kids About GLP-1s (Without Fueling Diet Culture)


Listen Later

GLP-1 medications are everywhere—ads, social feeds, fridge drawers—and our kids notice. In this solo episode, Dr. Whitney lays out when to bring GLP-1s up (rarely), when to respond (when your child asks), and exactly how to keep the conversation grounded in health, not aesthetics. She covers common myths teens absorb online, what’s appropriate for kids (and what’s not), real risks and benefits, and simple scripts you can use to push back on diet-culture messaging—without shaming bodies of any size.

If dinnertime is your daily chaos hour, I’ve got something game-changing.

It’s called Suvie. It’s a smart countertop appliance and meal delivery service that makes effortless home-cooked meals. And here’s the coolest part - The Suvie Kitchen Robot that refrigerates your food all day, then cooks it automatically—roasting, slow cooking, even air frying—so dinner’s ready exactly when you need it.

I use it because I don’t have time to meal prep every Sunday. I need something that works with my actual schedule. Suvie does.

You can load it in the morning, set it, and forget it. No stress. No last-minute drive-thru.

Suvie makes dinner one less thing to worry about.
