THE MATURE MUSCLE PODCAST - Season 4 / Episode 9: OZEMPIC, MOUNJARO & WEGOVY
(SEMAGLUTIDE & TIRZEPATIDE)
PLUS THE “NEW” WONDERS OF CREATINE MONOHYDRATE
Today we had a chat about the huge increase in people using Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Ozempic . They all injectable medications that contain a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. This type of medication can treat obesity and manage blood sugar levels. Mounjaro is also a dual agonist, which means it mimics another hormone as well as GLP-1, this other hormone is GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide).
Mounjaro and Wegovy are injections that mimic hormones which send signals to the parts of your brain responsible for appetite and hunger. Wegovy and Mounjaro can help you feel fuller for longer and slow the emptying of your stomach, Mounjaro’s GIP in addition to this helps with weight management by preventing fat from building up. Ozempic, containing GLP-1 has been clinically approved to treat diabetes and helps to regulate blood sugar.
Creatine monohydrate is one of the most well-researched and effective supplements out there. It’s best known for helping people build strength, muscle, and recover faster from exercise. Recent research also shows it can be helpful as we age—especially when combined with strength training—by supporting muscle and bone health. It may also give the brain a small boost, improving memory and mental sharpness in some people, especially older adults. New studies suggest it could help the heart and blood vessels, and even support mood and mental health, though more research is needed in those areas. Overall, it’s a safe and affordable supplement with a wide range of benefits beyond just gym performance.
