    Mast Cells, Microdosing GLP-1s, and the Five Types of Obesity w/ Dr. Aaron Hartman

    Dr. Aaron Hartman joins the GLP-1 Hub podcast to share how GLP-1 medications can support far more than weight loss, including mast cell stabilization for complex sensitivity-driven conditions, tailored microdosing strategies for highly reactive patients, and practical guidance on preserving muscle mass, supporting hormones in perimenopause, and addressing environmental toxin burden with foundational lifestyle habits. About Dr. Aaron Hartman: Dr. Aaron Hartman is a triple board-certified physician and clinical researcher who has been involved with over 70 clinical studies. He is the founder of the Virginia Research Center and serves as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Family Medicine at VCU School of Medicine. His journey into functional medicine began when he and his wife adopted their first daughter from foster care. She was born with cerebral palsy and countless dietary issues, and the family's search for answers led Dr. Hartman to functional medicine. In 2016 he founded Richmond Integrative and Functional Medicine, where he focuses on caring for complex patients who have fallen through the cracks in the current healthcare system. His book, UnCurable: From Hopeless Diagnosis to Defying All Odds, chronicles his personal and professional journey.

    Sustainable Weight Loss on GLP-1s w/ Beth Gerhart

    In this episode, Ana Reisdorf sits down with Beth Gerhart, co-founder of Tyde Wellness, to talk about what realistic, sustainable weight loss actually looks like on GLP-1 medications. Beth shares insights from five years of working with GLP-1 patients — including why some people are "super responders," how to handle plateaus, and the habits that separate people who keep the weight off from those who regain it. They also cover how to safely taper off the medication (or microdose for maintenance), the rebound hunger trap that catches people who skip meals, and the surprising non-weight-loss benefits patients are reporting — from reduced joint pain to better sleep. About Beth Gerhart: Beth Gerhart is the Co-Founder and Chief Care Officer of Tyde Wellness and one of the leading voices in patient-centered GLP-1 care. With more than 20 years in the wellness industry, Beth has helped thousands of patients through medication-based weight loss, personalized nutrition planning, microdosing protocols, and lasting behavior change.

Amber Abila, binge eating coach, reveals why traditional therapy and willpower aren't enough—and shares the two missing pieces that finally helped her break free after years of bulimia and binge eating.

    Can You Quit GLP-1s Without Regaining Weight? w/ Dr. Holly Wyatt and Dr. Jim Hill

    Studies show most people regain up to 80% of their weight after stopping GLP-1 medications like Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic. But it doesn't have to be that way. Dr. Holly Wyatt and Dr. Jim Hill, leading weight loss maintenance researchers and one of the co-founders of the National Weight Control Registry, share their science-backed strategies for keeping weight off when you stop the medication. They break down the three essential pillars—nutrition, exercise, and mindset—and explain why the medications are a "fix" not a cure. Whether you're planning to taper off, considering staying on long-term, or exploring your options, this conversation offers practical plays you can implement to protect your progress.

    Sleep, Cortisol & GLP-1s w/ Dr. Holly Donahue

    Are you waking up at 3AM with your heart racing? Feeling wired but tired all day? Dr. Holly Donahue, a naturopathic doctor with over two decades of experience, reveals why so many GLP-1 users struggle with sleep, and it's not the medication itself. The real culprit is what most people are doing (or not doing) with their nutrition. In this conversation, Ana and Dr. Donahue break down the cortisol-blood sugar connection, why your body might be spiking stress hormones overnight, and exactly what you need to eat to sleep soundly while on a GLP-1. If you're exhausted, not losing weight despite doing "everything right," or just want to feel better on your medication, this episode gives you the blueprint.  About Dr. Donahue:  Dr. Holly Donahue is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor with over two decades of clinical experience who discovered naturopathic medicine's power over 30 years ago when a customized treatment plan completely turned her life around—prompting her to leave corporate America and pursue medicine. She now helps high performers heal from burnout, fatigue, hormone imbalance, and weight issues without chasing silver bullets, addressing health at the level of body, mind, and spirit. She's the founder of Simple Health, a virtual wellness company delivering personalized naturopathic coaching and treatment programs nationwide, with her work featured on Voice America, the Health Mastery for Leaders Summit, and other performance-driven health platforms.  Find Simple Health online: https://www.simplehealthnh.com/ Pocket Doc - https://joinpocketdoc.com/join Simple Health Community - https://membership.simplehealthnh.app/ Vision for Health - https://get.simplehealthnh.com/vision-for-health-5-day-challenge-landing677732-1351 Understanding Hypophosphatemia: Recognition, Diagnosis, and TreatmentEndocrine experts distinguish Hypophosphatemia from osteoporosis & osteomalaciaListen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Want to Learn More about GLP-1 Hub?
