GLP-1s and Inflammation: The Missing Story! NEW RESEARCH

Most people believe GLP-1 medications only start working after the scale moves.
That the real benefits come later.
That everything depends on weight loss.

But new research published November 3, 2025, in The Journal of Clinical Investigation shows something very different.

In this video, Laraine Durham breaks down groundbreaking science showing that GLP-1 medications begin reducing real, measurable inflammation within hours of the very first dose — long before meaningful weight loss occurs.

This is not about willpower.
It is not about dieting harder.
And it is not about chasing a number on the scale.

It is about biology.

In this episode, we explore:
• How GLP-1 medications reduce systemic inflammation across the body
• Why inflammation plays a central role in obesity and metabolic disease
• What happens in the gut, brain, liver, heart, kidneys, joints, and immune system
• Why many people “feel different” early in their GLP-1 experience
• How reduced inflammation helps quiet food noise, stabilize energy, and reduce pain
• The science behind semaglutide and tirzepatide beyond weight loss

Laraine also shares her personal story — decades of dieting, extreme exercise, food noise, inflammation she didn’t understand, and what finally changed when she began GLP-1 therapy.

This video is grounded in the research paper:
“Anti-inflammatory actions of glucagon-like peptide-1–based therapies beyond metabolic benefits”
by Dr. Chi-Kin Wong and Dr. Daniel Drucker, published November 3, 2025.
