Instead, Erin recorded this for people interested in these drugs to better help you understand the potential risks, and for practitioners to better help their clients/patients understand these medications. Erin also provides ways to naturally increase the GLP-1 hormone in the event that you don’t want to spend thousands of dollars injecting yourself every week with a pharmaceutical. We hope this helps you better understand these super popular drugs, and if so - please share it with friends & family who are talking about it. In this episode: How are Ozempic and Wegovy different?
