Abstract:
With the rapid rise in GLP-1 medications like Ozempic® and Wegovy®, the landscape of weight loss is changing. While these medications offer powerful short-term results, nutrition remains the cornerstone of long-term success. In this session, Registered Dietitian Kelly Springer, MS, RD, CDN, explores the critical role of food in supporting and enhancing the effects of GLP-1s—and in helping individuals achieve sustainable weight loss even without pharmaceutical intervention.
Drawing from decades of experience and evidence-based strategies featured in her upcoming book, The New Weight Loss Era, Springer outlines practical nutrition solutions to reduce inflammation, regulate blood sugar, improve metabolic health, and reverse chronic disease. Attendees will leave with actionable insights to empower patients, employees, or themselves in navigating weight loss with or without medication in today’s evolving health landscape.
