We dive into the science behind GLP-1 medications, why they're about so much more than weight loss, and how they're changing the conversation around longevity, metabolic health, and healthy aging.Bracha explains how GLP-1s work in the body, why weight gain is often rooted in biology rather than willpower, and how factors like glucose, insulin, inflammation, and hormones all play a role in long-term health. We also discuss who may benefit from GLP-1 medications, including women navigating perimenopause and menopause, adults focused on cardiovascular health, and those looking to improve metabolic wellness.We also get into fertility, blood sugar, continuous glucose monitors, and the surprising ways GLP-1s may help reduce cravings by working on the brain's reward system. Beyond medications, Bracha shares the foundational habits she believes everyone should prioritize first from walking after meals and getting morning sunlight to improving sleep and building sustainable wellness routines.Whether you're curious about GLP-1s, trying to better understand metabolic health, or looking for practical ways to optimize your health for the long run, this episode is packed with insights and actionable takeaways.xo, Tay⸻Follow Bracha Banayan! 🤍Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bracha_banayanHelloDose: https://hellodose.com/IVDrips: https://ivdrips.com/⸻Let’s Connect! 🤍https://taylorlove.comShop Omnilux Red Light Therapy with code TAYLORLOVE: http://omniluxled.com/taylorloveShop LTK (beauty, wellness, home, & styling) - https://www.shopltk.com/explore/taylor_loveeShopMy: https://shopmy.us/shop/taylorlovePersonal IG: https://www.instagram.com/taylor_loveePodcast IG: https://instagram.com/girltalkwithtaypodBeauty Brand IG: https://www.instagram.com/loveebeauty.co Join Taylor’s email list: https://taylorlove.myflodesk.com/subscribeShop Caraway with code TAYLORLOVE: https://carawayhome.com/taylorloveSubscribe to the Podcast on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@taylorlovepeterson/podcasts
