Demand for GLP-1s from North Carolina Medicaid patients has grown significantly
For most patients, these changes improve heart health
This translates to roughly 30 million people taking the most popular GLP-1s for weight loss and to treat Type 2 diabetes, or to reduce their risk of heart disease and stroke
In the context of weight management therapy, this may involve patient-specific considerations such as dosage instructions, treatment tolerance, medication history, or practical needs related to the prescription
Even simple movements, like walking uphill, sitting upright at a desk, or lifting a bag, now demand more from tissues that arent conditioned for it
A structured approach guided by a GLP-1 nutritionist can help ensure that weight loss remains safe and sustainable
