In 2006, Dr. Kris Wusterhausen noticed his own health was starting to deteriorate. Despite exercising routinely and eating a reasonable diet, he discovered his blood pressure, blood sugars, and waistline were increasing. He turned to the age management medicine field for answers. Dr. Wusterhausen opened his own age management medical practice in 2008, the Resurge Clinic. Today, he continues to follow the principles of preventative medicine optimizing health, restoring hormonal balance, delaying the appearance of age indicators, and preventing premature disease, disability, and death. By changing a person's lifestyle, nutrition, medication, hormones, and daily habits, Dr. Wusterhausen believes the patient can see drastic changes in their physical and mental state. In 2015, Dr. Wusterhausen became certified in peptide therapy through the International Peptide Society and Scientific Research and Performance (SSRP). He actively attends conferences and seminars across the country. In 2020, he attended his first Mastermind at an SSRP conference led by Dr. William Seeds. Dr. Seeds is considered by many to be the pioneer of peptides in the United States. Dr. Wusterhausen continues to meet multiple times a year with his close colleagues at SSRP conferences. He was honored to become SSRP faculty in 2022. Dr. Wusterhausen is a global lecturer. He truly loves teaching, not only his patients but also providers about his views on wellness, hormones, and peptides. In 2022, Dr. Wusterhausen became the medical director of the BioTe Training Clinic in Irving, Texas, where hundreds of providers are trained on hormone replacement annually. We’re alongside Dr. Wusterhausen in this episode to hear all about his journey from overcoming personal health challenges to pioneering innovative health strategies at The Resurge Clinic in Texas. Dr. Wusterhausen shares his insights on GLP-1 medications for weight management, including their benefits and financial hurdles, plus the emerging role of dual GLP-1 and GIP agonists like tirzepatide. We also compare tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss and diabetes management, and explore the exciting potential of amylin receptor agonists. Topics discussed in this episode include: •Why Dr. Wusterhausen’s early work with Biote and mentorship under Dr. Paul Thompson were pivotal in his career. •Insights from his practice and contributions to peptide research. •The importance of GLP-1 medications for weight management and their holistic benefits. •How financial hurdles and strategies for safely discontinuing GLP-1 medications can be addressed. •Why body composition analysis tools like the InBody are crucial for monitoring progress. •How individualized treatment plans with growth hormone secretagogues and hormone optimization prevent muscle loss. •Why the dual GLP-1 and GIP agonist, tirzepatide, and its role in metabolic health management. •A comparison between tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss and diabetes management. •Personal and patient experiences with tirzepatide and semaglutide, highlighting significant outcomes and minimal side effects. •The potential of an amylin receptor agonist in improving glucose levels and decreasing appetite. •Exciting patient results with the amylin receptor agonist, noting significant weight loss and minimal side effects. •Why education, slow titration, and methodical approaches are essential for minimizing side effects. •How peptides complement hormonal balance, along with the foundational role of hormones. •Why GLP-1s should not be solely relied upon for weight loss.
