What to eat on a GLP-1-friendly diet

Although GLP-1 medications like Ozempic^®¹, Wegovy^®¹, and Mounjaro^®¹ are largely used to treat chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, they’ve become popular as weight management drugs. GLP-1 medications can help manage appetite and promote a feeling of fullness, which may reduce food intake. Over time this may lead to weight loss, however, a nutritious diet will help complement your weight management journey.

Focusing on nutrient-rich, whole foods can help you feel your best when taking GLP-1 medications. GLP-1-friendly foods include high-fiber vegetables, lean proteins like chicken or fish, whole grains, and healthy fats like avocados or nuts.

Fiber supports digestion and helps regulate blood sugar, while protein maintains muscle and keeps you feeling full. With a reduced appetite, it’s important to maximize your nutrition so your body gets what it needs. And, consider avoiding items with alternative sweeteners if you are sensitive to these ingredients. Small, balanced meals are your best bet to stay energized and on track with your health goals.
