Sam talks about what Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is and how it is diagnosed. Sam dives into why weight loss is commonly prescribed for PCOS and potential risks for this recommendation. She breaks down the logic behind gluten-free, dairy-free, and low-carb diets being recommended for PCOS management. Lastly, she discusses some non-diet approaches you can start incorporating if you have PCOS. For more with Sam, listen to our bonus episode exclusive on Spotify!

In this episode of The Up-Beet Dietitians podcast, Emily and Hannah review the Ro Weight Loss Program. One of Ro’s biggest marketing points is easy access to weight loss medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound that you can get through telehealth visits and not dealing with the shortages of these meds. The girls chat about what the weight loss program entails, how much the program costs, and what the healthcare team looks like. This might be what the future looks like regarding weight loss medications… time will tell (and we’ll probably make more episodes about it lol). Tune in to learn more!

In this episode of The Up-Beet Dietitians podcast, Emily and Hannah review the exclusively streamed on Hulu feature, An Oprah Special: Shame, Blame, and the Weight Loss Revolution. Both girls watched the weight loss feature and will talk you through all of the guests, what is recommended, and the overall takeaways.

TW: ED, disordered eating, and intentional wt loss are constantly discussed in this episode, so please protect yourself first if need be. We recommend listening to this episode if you don’t feel inclined to watch the special (or even if you do feel inclined, we recommend listening to our take on it).
