For midlife women navigating shifting hormones and stubborn weight, this combination can be a game-changer
Diet tweaks that actually work To reduce nausea, GERD, and indigestion while on GLP-1s: Prefer smaller, lighter meals instead of heavy thalis or buffets Shift the plate so at least one-third to half comes from protein sources like dals, chana, rajma, soy products, paneer, curd, milk, sprouts, nuts, and seeds Choose steamed, grilled, sauted, or home-cooked dishes over deep-fried snacks and heavy gravies Limit very spicy, oily street food, especially in the first months For diarrhoea or loose motions, simple curd, buttermilk, and homemade ORS can help support gut health and hydration
After reports from the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System flooded in, another, less desired side effect may need to be added to the GLP-1 drugs' portfolio
