How to Use GLP-1s Correctly (Avoid Muscle Loss & Low Energy)

If you’re using a GLP-1—or thinking about it—this is the part most people are missing. These medications can be incredibly effective for weight loss… but if you’re not supporting your body properly, they can also lead to muscle loss, low energy, and a slower metabolism. In this video, I break down how to actually use GLP-1s *correctly* so you: * protect lean muscle * support your metabolism * improve energy and recovery * and get results that actually last This isn’t about eating less. It’s about fueling your body the right way while appetite is suppressed. What we cover: * How GLP-1s actually work (and what they don’t fix) * Why protein is critical (and how to hit your targets even with low appetite) * Hydration, electrolytes, and why they matter more than you think * Key nutrients that support metabolism and energy * Gut health and digestion on GLP-1s * Mitochondrial support and fatigue * Hormones, midlife metabolism, and why this changes your results * Strength training and how to prevent muscle loss * Common mistakes + troubleshooting (hair loss, low energy, plateaus) --- Links & Resources 👉 GLP-1 Optimization Guide (step-by-step strategy): [Add your link] 👉 My private women’s longevity + peptide group (live calls, Q&A, protocols, community): [https://women-s-optimized-wellness.mn.co/share/bJwieXaaxM3Aa0qI?utm_source=manual](https://women-s-optimized-wellness.mn.co/share/bJwieXaaxM3Aa0qI?utm_source=manual) About Me I’m Kristi, a PhD scientist in molecular oncology with 15+ years in precision medicine.
