Starting a GLP-1 medication can sometimes involve a period of transition as your body adapts to new hormonal and digestive signals.
We provide personalized supplement support that may help you feel more comfortable and balanced as your body adjusts to your new medication.
One common experience is a dip in energy as your appetite and digestion change. Fatigue can stem from reduced food intake, so we may recommend a high-quality multivitamin along with targeted supplements like Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12, Omega-3 fatty acids, and protein supplements to support your nutrition.
We can also help address other common symptoms such as nausea, heartburn, bloating, constipation, and changes in appetite or digestion through safe, medically guided solutions that are tailored to your individual needs.
Outside of work, you can find Jen with her family, friends, Samoyed dogs Milford and Archie, and cat Rochester. She also enjoys strength training, running the trails or settling in with a good book.
"Weight management is not just about losing pounds, but rather improving your overall physical and psychological health. Medical weight management provides the tools and specialized support that is key to achieving a healthy future. We see the value in partnering with individuals not to chase numbers, but rather to build health. Recognizing that weight is a symptom, and health is the goal, we can work together toward lasting change." - Jen Farrell, NP
