Ragen Chastain is back to continue our conversation about weight, health, and diet culture — this time answering listener questions about the GLP-1s you’ve been hearing so much about: Wegovy, Ozempic, and other weight-loss drugs.

Following up on last week’s episode, Ragen helps us separate hype from reality. We dive into how these drugs actually work — and don’t — their risks and side effects, and the broader context around the pharmaceutical industry and public discourse on weight.

In this episode, we cover:

What GLP-1s actually are and how they function in the body

The side effects and potential health risks of these drugs

How effective they really are for long-term weight management

What happens when weight loss plateaus while taking them

The impact of pharma companies, marketing, and the weight-loss industry

The shortages affecting diabetics who rely on GLP-1s for medical reasons

Tune in to get a clear, evidence-based perspective on the weight-loss drug craze, and to continue unpacking the bigger conversation about weight, health, and stigma.
