916. Fearlessly Failing: What to Eat on GLP's: Protein, Fibre & Side-Effect Hacks

What to Eat on GLP-1, GLP-2 & GLP-3 Medications: Protein, Fibre & Side-Effect Hacks

The landscape of GLP medications is evolving rapidly. We are no longer just looking at single-action GLP-1s—we are now seeing dual (GLP-1/GIP) and triple-action (GLP-1/GIP/Glucagon) therapies that completely transform appetite and metabolism.

While these medications are powerful tools, reduced appetite means the nutrient density of every bite matters more than ever.

In this episode, we break down how to fuel your body, preserve lean muscle, and prevent common GI side effects while on GLP therapies.

What We Cover in This Episode:

• The Evolution of GLP Meds: Understanding single, dual, and triple-action therapies.
• Preserving Lean Muscle: Why getting 25–30g of protein per meal is non-negotiable.
• Fibre & Cholesterol: How soluble fibre aids gut motility and helps clear excess cholesterol.
• Navigating Side Effects: Dietary triggers for nausea, reflux, sulfur burps, and constipation.
• What to Avoid: Why high-fat/fried foods, carbonation, and alcohol cause severe GI distress.
