GLP-1 agonists, like Ozempic and Wegovy work by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates blood sugar and appetite. They enhance insulin release when you eat and slow down digestion, helping control blood sugar and reduce hunger, often leading to weight loss.
Reduced appetite and caloric intake with GLP-1 or GIP/GLP-1 RAs may lead to lower intake of essential micronutrients , particularly vitamins A, C, D, and E, B12 , Iron as well as calcium and magnesium, which are already lower in many people with obesity.
Supplementation can support protein and nutrient needs for those unable to meet them through diet alone. Monitoring for changes in body composition, physical function, and signs of nutritional deficiencies like fatigue and hair loss is recommended. Lab tests, such as vitamin D, B12, iron, and folic acid, can help detect any micronutrient shortfalls.
