One in eight Americans has taken or is currently taking a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound. These drugs have transformed the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet many people still have important questions about how they work, their long-term effects, and whether there are other natural ways to effectively support a healthy metabolism. In this episode of The Jordan Rubin Show, Jordan explores the science behind GLP-1, explains both the documented benefits and potential concerns surrounding these medications, and shares his biblical, whole-body perspective on healing versus symptom management. He also discusses practical strategies to naturally support your body's own GLP-1 production through nutrition, intermittent fasting, gut health, targeted supplements, exercise, and healthy daily habits. Watch through to the end for the complete GLP-1 Support Protocol, including foods, supplements, lifestyle strategies, and practical tools for supporting healthy metabolism, blood sugar balance, and long-term weight management.

Chrissy Evans believed losing weight would finally fix what was "wrong" with her. At more than 270 pounds, she was struggling with fibromyalgia, chronic back pain, depression, binge eating, and subclinical hypothyroidism. After years of struggling with her weight, she even borrowed money for weight-loss surgery, only to find ways to eat around the procedure and eventually stall her progress. Chrissy ultimately did lose 150 pounds. But reaching her goal weight revealed something she never expected: changing her body hadn't healed the pain underneath her relationship with food.
Addiction doesn’t always disappear when you remove the substance. Sometimes, it finds somewhere else to go. Grammy-nominated producer, songwriter, and We The Kingdom founding member Ed Cash knows this firsthand. After years of drug and alcohol addiction, multiple treatment centers, and time in jail, Ed got sober at just 19 years old. But as his life began to change, he eventually found himself struggling with another form of addiction: food. At one point, Ed was roughly 90 pounds overweight. His physical health began to change when he discovered Jordan Rubin’s The Maker’s Diet and followed its 40-day, three-phase approach, eventually losing the excess weight and maintaining that transformation for decades. In this episode of The Jordan Rubin Show, Jordan and Ed explore the deeper story behind his recovery—from addiction, anxiety, and food to identity, forgiveness, faith, and learning to stop living for the approval of others. Ed also shares the remarkable story of surrendering music after getting sober, and how God eventually restored the very calling he thought he had lost.Watch through to the end for the complete Addiction & Metabolic Health Support Protocol, including principles from The Maker’s Diet for addressing insulin, infection, and inflammation, supporting the gut, improving metabolic health, and doing the inner work that can help break addictive patterns. __________________ Subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss a new episode, free protocol, or biblical health resource from The Jordan Rubin Show.Subscribe to our FREE Biblical Health Journal: https://www.jordanrubin.com/__________________
