We explore where these medications might fit into care and why context matters—especially for those with eating disorders or disordered eating. Drawing from our clinical experience, we share the questions we’re asking and how we approach these medications through a lens of curiosity, safety, adequacy, and body trust—not just weight.
This isn’t about promoting or rejecting GLP-1s—it’s about slowing the conversation down, acknowledging the gray areas, and offering an ED-informed, evidence-based perspective.
Whether you’re a clinician, a patient, or just curious about the buzz, this episode gives grounded insight and a reminder that nutrition care is never one-size-fits-all.
