GLP-1, Ozempic & Hormones: An Endocrinologist Explains | Jadu Beauty Podcast

Can you microdose Ozempic just to lose 5 pounds? Does gluten-free actually heal your thyroid? Is cortisol really making you gain weight? On this episode of the Jadu Beauty Podcast, broadcasting from NYC with our clean-living, chemical-free approach to beauty and wellness, we sit down with Dr. Caroline Messer - double board-certified endocrinologist, co-founder of Fifth Avenue Endocrinology and founder of Well by Messer, to separate hormone hype from evidence-based fact. We get into how hormones really work as the body's chemical messengers, why the thyroid is unfairly blamed for everything, the truth about Hashimoto's and the gluten-free myth, what cortisol actually does (and the "cortisol face" myth), and a deep, honest dive into GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Zepbound, the "beiging" fat effect, quieting the food noise, microdosing, side effects, and weight loss after menopause.
