GLP-1s

with Bertie Stringer, Nutritionist and hormone-health founder

GLP-1s can switch off hunger. They can't switch off everything underneath it.

Nutritionist and hormone-health founder Bertie Stringer goes beyond the before-and-after photographs to explore the much messier reality of GLP-1s: nutrition, malnourishment, identity, our relationship with food and what happens when a powerful medical tool collides with a culture already obsessed with women's bodies.
