Did you know there is a natural answer to Ozempic?
In today’s episode, we’re joined by Dr Madusha Peiris and Dr Rubina Aktar, who are leading experts in the gut-brain connection, with over a decade of research focused on how the gut senses nutrients and communicates with the brain through hormone signalling.
Their work has helped uncover how specialised gut cells (L-cells) can be activated to release key appetite-regulating hormones including GLP-1 and PYY - a lesser-known satiety hormone that many researchers believe is just as important as GLP-1 for sustainable appetite control.
Listen in and learn:
🥦 the reason you shouldn’t be buying probiotic supplements
🔬 the truth behind “nature’s ozempic”
🤤 why you never feel full
🥣 what to buy to * actually * heal your gut
🍽️ how to moderate your appetite control
