This week, let’s cover the natural ways your body can tap into producing GLP-1 to effortlessly lose weight like the popular drugs Ozempic and Wegovy. You will also learn the one advantage these drugs do not have and I am here to share and bare it all, along with what natural products you can use to turn on your GLP-1 for effortless weight loss as well as review the top 3 actual natural GLP-1 products. But first, this week’s travel adventure.
Deep in the heart of the serene countryside near High Point, North Carolina, lies an old bridge with a tale as chilling as the whispering winds that sweep through its rusted beams. This is no ordinary bridge; it's Lydia's Bridge, shrouded in the veil of local folklore. The story goes that a young woman named Lydia lived in the area during the 1920s. One fateful evening, as she made her journey home from a joyous gathering, tragedy struck. Her car careened off the road, plunging into the icy waters below, sealing her fate in the depths of the creek.
Legend has it that Lydia's spirit still lingers around the bridge where the accident occurred. It's said that if you park your car on Lydia's Bridge, turn off the engine, and honk your horn three times, her ghost will appear. Some variations of the story suggest that if you leave a flower on the bridge, it will mysteriously disappear overnight.
Whatever the folklore holds, since the 1920's people have reported seeing a woman stranded along the quiet road. With a wave of her hand and a warm smile, she steps forward, her demeanor is one of genuine need rather than eerie mystique, her intention clear: she simply seeks assistance to find her way home. As each car draws near, Lydia's hopeful expression shines, her trust in the kindness of strangers unwavering. And though the night may be long and the road uncertain, Lydia's faith in the goodness of humanity remains steadfast as she patiently waits for a helping hand to guide her homeward.
Of course, like many urban legends, there's no concrete evidence to support the existence of Lydia's ghost or the validity of the stories surrounding the bridge. Recent stories account that Lydia is actually Annie who did indeed die on that fateful night. Nevertheless, it remains a popular local legend and a spooky destination for thrill-seekers and ghost hunters. Look for the historical marker. Park off the road, and whip out your Paranormal equipment and see who you can connect with.

Can I increase my GLP-1 naturally?
I know last week I laid down a heavy duty post on the emotional connections to weight loss, and I feel like I am doing a 360 with this weeks post, however it is one I do want to talk about. We are all on different paths, so I want to make sure I cover them all. Plus, If you are feeling left out of the weight loss craze, do not want to fork out that kind of money, or have a fear of needles or the long term side effects, there is hope. I am covering the keys to healthy weight loss engaging your natural GLP-1. Let’s get to it.
My new walking partner was happy to share her experience using one of the GLP-1 medications she is using for weight loss. Of course I had 10,000 questions for her.
In case you have no idea what I am talking about, GLP-1 recptor antogists Ozempic, Trulicity, Victoza, Mounjaro, Wegovy and others are being used by social media influeners, Oprah, and actors to lose weight.
Orginally these medications were used to treat Type 2 diabetes. However, somehow the right authorities are turing a blind eye, with their hands tucked behind their backs, palms up for kickbacks allowing these mediations to be used off-label promoting them like buying a chocolate bar. At one time, drugs could not be used off label, but I guess, anything goes when there is a buck to be made.
Suddenly, just like that everyone who is a who’s who is injecting GLP-1 antoginst substance for the glory of being thin.
Back to my friend, what stuck with me the most was how the drug turned off her appetite so much so that she could not enjoy going to a restaurant with her husband and eating. She would eat maybe a couple of bites of food a day (A DAY!) and that was it.
The other bigger take away, it did not matter what drug she chose, there was no diet to follow. Essentially, eat what you want and just lose weight. Makes sense, because if you were to eat a healthy diet and maintain your weight, how are the pharmaceutical companies going to make their millions?
Honestly, I can see the appeal and feel like I am being brainwashed into thinking I need a jab for my ten pounds. Who wouldn’t want to just eat whatever they want and just keep melting away despite the acute and long term health ramifications. If you are unhappy with your GLP-1 hallowed looking face (also known as “Ozempic face”) you can get plastic surgery to fix that. After all, we are an instant gratification society.
Ponder this with me for just a moment. If we can eat whatever we want and lose weight, what happens when we want to stop the expensive drug? What have we learned about what got us into this position in the first place? Have we corrected it? How have we learned to maintain our new look? Is it going to be healthy for us down the road? Will we have to continuously stay on this drug to maintain our weight loss? How happy will we be eating what we want and relying on an expensive drug to keep up with society’s expectations? More importantly, now that I am at my desired body weight, standing in front of the mirror, naked, am I really reflecting back inner acceptance deeply and completely?
Imagine with me for just a moment, what if there is a better way, save a ton of money, actually be able to eat throughout the day, maintain your new healthy weight, keep healthy down the road, without the possibility of pancreatitis, gastroparesis, bowel obstruction, gallstone attacks, or bile duct blockage, pancreatic and thyroid carcinoma that GLP-1 Antagonist studies are showing. Would you not rather try something that will not have these side effects and possibility of long term wight management?
As a Quantum Gut Expert, I am going to tell you, it starts in the gut. Don’t roll your eyes just yet because believe it or not, this is where incretin hormones such as GLP-1 are made in response to the foods you are eating. So, ride along with me as we look to the gut for effortless weight loss and optimal life long weight management.
What is GLP-1
First, let’s understand what GLP-1 is. Believe it or not, it is not a drug. It is a mechanism naturally occurring inside of you. GLP-1 is a hormone secreted in various digestive organs including the intestine in response to food intake, primarily from the small intestine's L-cells. Its primary functions revolve around glucose homeostasis and satiety regulation, making it a crucial player in metabolic health. Here's how it works:
Glucose Regulation: GLP-1 promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells in a glucose-dependent manner. This means that it stimulates insulin release when blood sugar levels are elevated, helping to lower them back to normal range.
Appetite Control: GLP-1 slows down gastric emptying, leading to increased feelings of fullness and reduced appetite. This effect aids in weight management and prevents overeating.
Pancreatic Protection: Beyond its role in glucose metabolism, GLP-1 has been shown to promote pancreatic beta-cell proliferation and inhibit their apoptosis, thus preserving pancreatic function.
Before we get into what we can do to turn on GLP-1 to help us lose weight effortlessly, we need to address a couple of things such as the food we eat, pancreatic enzyme output and our microbiome. Then, we can talk about what we can do to help facilitate this adventure without expensive monthly costs and long term side effects.
