What you’ll learn in this live workshop:

HOW GLP-1 MEDICATIONS actually WORK

Cut through the headlines and understand what these medications are doing inside your body. Learn how they influence appetite, blood sugar, metabolism, and why some people experience dramatic results while others struggle with side effects or plateau.

IS GLP-1 THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOU?

If you’re considering GLP-1, already taking it, or feeling unsure about what you’re hearing online, this section will help you think it through. Learn who may benefit, when caution is important, and what questions you should be asking before starting or continuing treatment.

WHAT GLP-1 MEANS FOR YOUR LONG-TERM HEALTH

Weight loss is only part of the conversation. Understand how these medications fit into the bigger picture of metabolic health, nutrition, and lifestyle so you can decide what a sustainable path forward looks like for your body.

Should You be considering GLP-1 Medication?

This question has come up more than any other in recent clinic visits. GLP-1 medications are one of the most talked about weight loss tools today, and also one of the most misunderstood.

With so much conflicting information online and in the media, it can be difficult to know what’s evidence-based, what’s oversimplified, and what actually supports long-term metabolic health.

At Functional Medicine Uptown, we approach weight loss through a metabolic lens. It’s not about willpower or quick fixes, it’s about understanding how the body regulates blood sugar, appetite, muscle, and energy over time.

If you’ve been hearing mixed messages about GLP-1 from friends, headlines, or social media, this workshop will help bring clarity and clinical context to the conversation.

Community Giveback

Your $10 registration will be donated to Nutrition for Learning, a Waterloo Region organization that ensures children and youth have access to nutritious food during the school day so they can focus, learn, and succeed.
