Episode 24 - Diabetes and GLP-1: The Real Story Behind Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro (Part 2)
n this eye-opening episode of The Diabetes Podcast, co-hosts Amber Wilhoit (RD/LD, CDCES) and Richie Wilhoit (TRS-C) break down Diabetes GLP1 in simple, actionable steps you can use today. Learn how to boost GLP-1 naturally with intact grains (barley groats, steel cut oats), leafy greens (spinach thylakoids), resistant starch, and 40 grams of fiber—plus smart add-ons like apple cider vinegar, fermented foods, and spices (cinnamon, turmeric, cayenne). Discover why a 10-minute walk after meals, resistance training, and short HIIT sessions protect muscle and improve blood sugar, especially if you’re on GLP-1 meds. We cover who should consider GLP-1 medications, how to prevent muscle loss with protein and creatine, and how to build an exit plan from day one. You’ll get a simple 90-day plan, tips to track progress (waist, energy, hunger scale), and real talk on our “diabetogenic” environment. Diabetes GLP1 doesn’t have to be confusing—this episode gives you clear tools to curb cravings, steady glucose, and gain health for life. Subscribe for practical, science-backed steps toward lasting results.
