If you take a GLP-1 medication, like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, you may want to take a look at your diet. These weight loss drugs are hailed for their ability to slow down digestion and send fullness signals to the brain. For some people, this works so "well" that they forget to eat, causing malnutrition and dehydration. In other cases, certain foods may worsen the digestive symptoms associated with these medications.
