Episode notes
How Tirzepatide Reduces Hunger And Cravings
- Tirzepatide (GLP-1 + GIP) reduces physical hunger and deeply cuts psychological cravings for tasty foods.
- Michael Israetel says this drives major weight loss and broad health improvements beyond appetite control.
Health Benefits Beyond Weight Loss
- Tirzepatide and semaglutide deliver non-weight benefits like lower blood pressure, better glycemic control, reduced neuroinflammation, and less addictive behavior.
- Israetel argues these drugs functionally enhance health even for people already in good shape.
Talk To Your Doctor And Trial Low Doses
- Consider discussing tirzepatide with your doctor and try a low dose trial with bloodwork to assess benefits and risks.
- Israetel recommends integrating medical monitoring before continuing long-term.
