GLP-1’s or Bust? Will all VSG patients need GLP-1 meds?

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we cover a wide range of topics related to diabetes, weight loss, and bariatric surgery. We kick things off by talking about the underlying cause of diabetes. Most people believe that diabetes is caused by an over consumption of carbohydrates. But that’s incorrect. In fact, studies show that the consumption of animal fat is what causes your insulin receptors to become less sensitive.

    Next, we answer the question, “How long should you be on the Metabolic Reset Diet?” It’s a question we get asked daily and, as usual, the answer isn’t universal. Rather, it’s about determining what things you need to change in order to make the Metabolic Reset Diet work for you long-term. We offer practical advice on how to do this.

    Next, we tackle weight regain after bariatric surgery, especially for those who’ve had a sleeve gastrectomy (VSG). Almost half of patients deal with weight regain, and it’s not just about eating too much or slacking on exercise. The conversation dives into why this happens, focusing on hormonal changes and the body's natural resistance to weight loss. We also talk about how combining surgery with medications like GLP-1s can help manage weight over the long term.

    Finally, we share some tips on how to minimize hair loss after bariatric surgery. It’s a common concern for most patients. We cover practical ways to reduce hair thinning, including preventative measures like proper nutrition, key supplements, and medication to build reserves that assist in keeping as much of your hair as possible after surgery.
