Ozempic Nation: What to Eat and Drink While on GLP-1s
Share
It’s the biggest shift in wellness we’ve seen in years:
GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have gone mainstream.
But the conversation isn’t just about weight loss anymore it’s about how to support your body while on these medications.
Because when it comes to GLP-1s, what you eat and drink really matters.
GLP-1s and Your Body: The Basics
These medications work by mimicking a hormone (GLP-1) that:
-
Slows gastric emptying
-
Reduces appetite
-
Helps regulate blood sugar
-
Improves insulin sensitivity
But many users experience side effects like:
-
Nausea or bloating
-
Low appetite leading to poor nutrient intake
-
Energy dips or mood swings
-
Gut discomfort or irregular digestion
What You Eat Matters — But So Does What You Sip
While food is a major part of the Ozempic lifestyle, drinks can be silent disruptors or supporters. Some key mistakes:
-
Relying on high-sugar sodas or fruit juices
-
Overusing caffeine (which spikes cortisol and crashes blood sugar)
-
Drinking alcohol while digestion is already slowed
Instead, it’s about smart hydration and functional beverage choices.
What to Look for in a GLP-1-Friendly Drink
-
Low or no added sugar
-
Adaptogens to support mood and energy
-
Gentle carbonation to help satiety without bloating
-
Botanical ingredients that promote digestive ease
Ingredients like lemongrass, ginger, ginseng, and tulsi can help settle the gut, balance blood sugar, and support natural energy.
