The GLP-1 Handbook

There has been an explosion in the popularity of weight loss injections (GLP-1) such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro, but there isn’t easily accessible, reliable information for anyone looking to support their health while on the injections. This is a scientifically backed, expert-led guide that will answer pressing questions on how to prepare for the injections, what to expect while on them and how to adapt your lifestyle and diet to ensure that you’re still looking after your overall health.

Nutrition therapist Ian Marber shares that while GLP-1 quietens the food noise and allows you to simply eat the bare minimum – many people have not considered that food delivers nutrition, not just calories. While poor appetite might help with weight loss, it does nothing for your overall health. This book is designed to cover how to eat in the early stages, how to eat when appetite really reduces as the doses of GLP-1 increase, what supplements to take to make up for lost nutrients in food, and, importantly, how to eat when coming off the injections to maintain the weight loss.

Ian will also draw on the expertise of a GP to explain the science behind GLP-1 and what it actually does to our bodies to ensure that the information offered is as comprehensive as possible.
