The Importance of a Nutrient-Dense Dietary Plans while Taking GLP-1 Receptor Agonists Wegovy (semaglutide), Mounjaro (tirzepatide), and Ozempic (semaglutide) are weight loss drugs that belong to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. These drugs work by increasing the release of insulin, reducing appetite, and slowing down the digestion process, which can lead to weight loss. While they can be effective in helping individuals lose weight, there are potential risks associated with their use, including the risk of malnutrition. Some of the symptoms include dehydration, cramping, diarrhea, fatigue, difficulty focusing and more severe risks including pancreatitis and thyroid cancer.

The Diabetes and Hypertension meal plan was developed to maintain glycemic control and prevent hypertension for insulin and non insulin dependent diabetics. Individuals who are showing signs of hyperglycemia or have a family history of diabetes in addition to hypertension may benefit from following this plan. Key aspects are low sodium, high fiber, lean protein, whole grains, non-starchy vegetables, and low glycemic index fruit to promote improved blood glucose balance and a healthy blood pressure.
