Why did my GLP-1 stop working?

When a GLP-1 seems to stop working, the usual causes are a normal plateau, adapting appetite or calories that bypass fullness.

A plateau on a GLP-1 is expected: every trial curve flattens in the later months as the body settles at a lower weight.

Most people on a GLP-1 eat less protein than they need. How much, how to spread it over small meals, and why it protects muscle.

Hair loss on a GLP-1 is usually telogen effluvium: fast weight loss pushes hairs into rest, they shed months later, then grow back.

On a GLP-1 the fiber question is which kind, how fast you add it, and whether every dose comes with a full glass of water.

Magnesium and a GLP-1 work in different places, and the right form keeps water in the stool. Which form, how much and when to take it.

On a GLP-1 the magnesium form matters: citrate for the stool, glycinate for sleep and muscles, oxide mostly for the gut. Which to pick.
