How GLP-1 Fits Within a Lifestyle-Based Approach

Making sense of the GLP-1 & weight-loss conversation
GLP-1 medications have become one of the most talked-about weight loss tools, and one of the most misunderstood. With so much conflicting information, 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 view weight loss through a metabolic lens. It’s not about willpower or quick fixes, but 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, media, or social platforms — this session is designed to bring context, clarity, and perspective to the conversation.

There’s a lot of noise in the weight-loss conversation.
If you’re hearing a lot about GLP-1 but aren’t sure what’s evidence-based, what’s oversimplified, or what actually supports long-term metabolic health, you’re not alone.
This live webinar focuses on how GLP-1 medications work, where caution is warranted, and why lifestyle-based care remains foundational, so you can better understand the context and decide what’s aligned for you.
