Love it or leave it: GLP-1 edition đź‘€
• Semaglutide? Leave it. Around 17% report side effects. Helpful short term, not a forever solution
• Tirzepatide? Netflix and chill. Works well for a season, but not something to commit to long term
• Retatrutide (the newer triple-action)? Love it. Hits three pathways and may offer bigger benefits with fewer side effects
• New oral GLP-1s? Leave it. Roughly $1,000 a month, mainly for maintenance, and may spike cortisol
• Injectables for 12+ months with no break? Leave it if muscle matters. Take vacations every 3–6 months
• Microdosing? Skip it. Tapering off and back on works better
• Berberine, Ceylon cinnamon, Akkermansia? Love it. They support your body’s own GLP-1 production for longer-term results
Comment- “Support” if you want the supplements I recommend that have those ingredients!
Bottom line: GLP-1s are tools, not magic. How you use them matters just as much as which one you choose.
