Reseña del libro "The Senior's GLP-1 Clarity Guide (en Inglés)"
Taking a GLP-1 medication after 60 can raise a lot of questions. What should you eat? How can you protect your muscle and strength? What if your appetite disappears? How do you manage nausea, constipation, or other side effects? And what does GLP-1 treatment mean if you also have diabetes? The Senior’s GLP-1 Clarity Guide was created by Nash Mercer, LCSW, RDN, to make those questions easier to understand.
