Why aren't GLP-1 medications working for everyone?

You may be frustrated that semaglutide or tirzepatide isn't helping you lose weight like it has for others. The problem might not be your diet or willpower - it could be genetic.

Discover how a single gene called TCF7L2 may be sabotaging your weight loss efforts with GLP-1 medications, and what you can do about it.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

  • Why 10-15% of people may be "non-responders" to GLP-1 agonists for weight loss
  • The gene that could impact the effectiveness of  GLP-1 
  • Strategies to overcome genetic resistance to GLP-1 medications

This episode could be a game-changer if you've been struggling with weight loss despite using GLP-1 agonists.
