In this episode, I take a deep dive into the science behind GLP-1-related hair loss, separating fact from fiction. We explore why rapid weight loss, protein and nutrient deficiencies, hormonal changes, and metabolic stress can all contribute to shedding, along with practical strategies to help protect your hair while pursuing your weight-loss goals.I also discuss one of the questions I've been hearing more frequently: why some people seem to experience more hair shedding on retatrutide than tirzepatide. We break down the unique role of glucagon receptor activation, its potential effects on metabolism, heart rate variability (HRV), and physiological stress, and what current research does—and does not—tell us. Whether you're experiencing hair loss yourself or simply want to understand the biology behind it, this episode provides an evidence-based look at one of the most talked-about side effects of today's weight-loss medications.⚠️ DISCLAIMERThis content is for educational and research purposes only.
