Like frozen edamame, throw that into the blender with your smoothie with water. Basically, you just added clean soy milk, right? And that's going to also give you protein. So like I don't know how you feel about edamame, but from my perspective, organic edamame, organic, minimally processed soy-based foods like miso or tempeh, to me, these are health foods.
Well, so GLP-1 doesn't come out of nowhere. It's produced by our own body. This is one of a group of gut hormones that we call incretin hormones. And actually what drives GLP-1 production in the body, there's a couple of things, but one of them is fiber. Fiber in the diet helps us to basically activate the release of GLP-1 because when fiber gets fermented and transformed into

by our gut bacteria, they produce short-chain fatty acids, and those short-chain fatty acids activate receptors that lead to the release of GLP-1. So this is the reason why when you line up different concepts of how do we get people to feel full after a meal, what consistently rises to the surface as being the most powerful way to accomplish this is through dietary fiber.

Now, it's not just a fiber thing. So I don't want to make the claim that just hack your fiber, this fixes all of your issues because there's also protein. Protein in combination with fiber can be a great pairing, right? And this is how we get ourselves to feel full and not overeat.

When it comes to the GLP-1s, you know, with the people that you described, like, there are people who exist who have tried everything. And I'm so glad that these drugs exist for those people. But I do take issue with the idea that we destroy people's health. We make 88% of America metabolically unhealthy. through diet, like largely driven by diet, right?

And then the solution that is created by the people that we work with, like whether it be the pharmaceutical industry or our government or whatever it may be, the solution that's being proposed to us, even honestly the medical system, what's being proposed to us is take this shot, take it for the rest of your life. It will cost you a lot of money. And we have no clue.

What will happen to you and your body three years, five years, 10 years, 20 years from now? We have no clue.

So to me, it's a reasonable short duration that we have with other GLP-type drugs like bieta that was being used a little over 10 years ago. for diabetes semaglutide we have more experience with diabetes than we do with weight loss it's not exactly the same dosing so semaglutide is much more recent on the market my point
