Protein also stabilizes blood sugar by slowing carb digestion, supporting both the medication’s effectiveness and overall metabolic health.

Why Do I Need Fiber When Using A GLP-1 medication?

Fiber supports digestive health and helps reduce potential side effects of GLP-1 medications, like nausea or constipation. It also stabilizes blood sugar by slowing glucose absorption, enhancing the medication’s effectiveness and promoting overall digestive comfort.

How Does The Diet Direct GLP-1 Plan Help With Potential Side Effects?

The Diet Direct GLP-1 Plan helps manage side effects by encouraging smaller, frequent meals to reduce nausea and bloating. It also promotes hydration and fiber intake for better digestion. A balanced approach can ease discomfort, but always consult your healthcare provider if side effects persist.

How Should I Incorporate Fluids Into My Daily Consumption?

Stay hydrated by drinking water throughout the day, ideally between meals, to avoid dehydration. It’s best to avoid drinking fluids during meals to prevent filling up too quickly and suppressing your appetite. Aim to drink fluids 30 minutes before or after each meal or snack. Keep an eye on your urine color—pale yellow is a sign of good hydration. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider.

How Does The Diet Direct GLP-1 Plan Help With My Decreased Appetite?

The Diet Direct GLP-1 Plan focuses on nutrient-dense, high-protein foods to ensure you get the essential nutrients you need, even with reduced appetite. Eating smaller, more frequent meals helps maintain adequate calorie intake. Our fiber-rich products promote satiety and support digestion. Staying hydrated is also important, as dehydration can worsen appetite suppression. This plan helps balance nutrition, hydration, and portion control while on GLP-1 medication.

How Can Following This Plan Enhance Effects Of GLP-1 Medication?

Following a specialized plan, like the one from Diet Direct, enhances the effectiveness of GLP-1 medication. It helps improve metabolic health, supports sustainable habits, and promotes long-term well-being, leading to a better overall quality of life.

How Much Weight Will I Lose?

Weight loss results vary for each person, influenced by factors like metabolism and body composition. Our program offers flexible calorie levels to suit individual needs. If you experience rapid weight loss or a plateau while on GLP-1 medication, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider.

Can I Exercise On This Plan?

Yes, exercise is encouraged! Our protein-rich plan (40% of total intake) is great for low-impact exercises and complements strength training. However, before starting any new exercise routine, consult your physician to ensure it aligns with your health needs for a safe and effective fitness journey.
