What should I eat while taking GLP-1 medications?

Focus on nutrient-dense foods that maximize nutrition within reduced calorie intake. Prioritize lean proteins (chicken, fish, turkey, eggs, Greek yogurt) to preserve muscle mass - aim for 30-40g per meal. Include high-fiber vegetables (leafy greens, broccoli, peppers) for volume and nutrients without excess calories. Choose complex carbohydrates (quinoa, brown rice, sweet potatoes) over refined options for sustained energy. Add healthy fats in moderation (avocado, nuts, olive oil) for satiety and nutrient absorption. Since GLP-1s reduce appetite, every bite should count nutritionally. Avoid empty calories from sugary drinks, excessive alcohol, and ultra-processed snacks that provide little nutrition. Some patients find high-fat foods trigger nausea on GLP-1s, so moderate fat intake initially. Small, frequent meals may work better than large portions. SeraVia Gut+ Balance contains digestive enzymes and probiotics that support nutrient absorption when appetite is suppressed.
