| 27 Mar 2023 | #21 - Thinking of Taking Ozempic? (w/ Dr. Robert Todd Hurst) | 00:27:48 | |
GLP-1 medications have been a lively topic of discussion nationwide for the last six months. Many voices have touted drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro as a new "miracle" weight loss cure. Meanwhile a handful of experts have raised important questions about the safety of such treatments.
In this thought-provoking interview, Dr. Robert Todd Hurst offers a stunning cost-benefit analysis of taking GLP-1 agonist medications in the long and short terms.
While there is no doubt that these medications can be highly effective in helping people drop significant amounts of weight, Hurst cogently argues that the net benefit and costs should be carefully considered before one undergoes any course of treatment.
Dr. Hurst is a board-certified preventative cardiologist and notable author of the WebMD Heart Health Blog. In 2022 he launched The Healthspan Podcast, where he shares insights from his work at the Mayo Clinic and his own HealthspanMD practice based in Phoenix, Arizona.
SHOW NOTES
00:00 - Introduction 01:12 - GLP-1 agonists originally diabetes medications 03:45 - later discovered to have remarkable weight loss benefits 05:00 - “terrible” history of weight loss medications 06:45 - unrecognized costs, not just financial 09:30 - financial cost 10:00 - gastrointestinal and physiological side effects 11:40 - “muscle as youth,” 40% lean muscle mass loss concerns 13:30 - drawbacks of a “forever” medication 15:00 - studies show about ⅔ of weight regained; people with only 5% body weight to lose are mostly heavier after treatment 16:30 - a “fast start” to body optimization 17:45 - strategies for tapering on and tapering off 20:40 - be cautious where you get your medications and supplements from 21:28 - where this is going long term 22:40 - importance of a comprehensive approach 24:30 - not a solution, but an “additive” to other treatments for people with a lot of weight to lose (20% or more body weight) and high risk 26:15 - healthspanmd.com, healthspan podcast

| 08 May 2023 | #23 - 5D Spiritual Healing & Weight Release (with Patricia Monna) | 00:37:24 | |
In this episode, renowned psychic Patricia Monna helps us explore the mindframe-busting topic of 5D spiritual healing, specifically as it applies to weight loss.
Patricia describes how she used the spiritual power of 5D to lose 80 pounds and cure herself of an acute condition of erythromelalgia that had rendered her bed-ridden and unable to walk for two years.
Originally an oncology nurse, overcoming this personal health crisis allowed Patricia to develop the psycho-spiritual tools she now uses to help clients with a variety of ailments from around the world.
In addition to her 5D work with clients, Patricia regularly assists law enforcement agencies in her homeland of Canada and other countries to locate missing persons and bring closure to cases of homicide, kidnapping and unexplained disappearances.

| 25 Apr 2023 | #22 - Yoga for Weight Loss (with Dr. Loren Fishman) | 00:23:59 | |
In today’s podcast, we speak with Dr. Loren Fishman, author of the powerful book Yoga for Weight Loss. A Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation doctor based in New York City, Fishman explains how yoga can serve as a metabolic driver for healthy and sustainable weight loss and body optimization.
Fishman also cogently points out that yoga produces a similar hunger-reducing biochemical effect in the body to GLP-1 agonist drugs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro–without the side effects associated with those medications.
Before earning his medical degree, Dr. Fishman notably studied for one year in India with the legendary yoga master BKS Iyengar in the late 1960s.

With this episode, Elizabeth's brother Rob McGann joins the podcast as the Producer and Co-Host of Drop the Weight.
Rob is an accomplished multimedia writer, journalist, marketer and documentary filmmaker, and conducts the interview with Dr. Fishman.

| 01 Mar 2025 | #44 - Natural GLP-1 Activation & Avoiding the "Seven Cs" (with Dr. Stan Guberman) | 00:44:53 | |
In this episode of The Holistic GLP-1 Podcast, we are joined by the wonderful Dr. Stan Guberman, a licensed Chiropractic Physician and Certified Acupuncturist who holds two Diplomas in Nutrition that he’s put to excellent use over a 40-year career. I first discovered Dr. Guberman about a year ago when I was dealing with a health challenge and was looking for holistic solutions. I was so impressed by his wealth of naturopathic knowledge I just knew I had to share him with you. Throughout the discussion, Dr. G helps us consider natural alternatives to GLP-1 medications for weight loss purposes—including gems like Berberine and Yerba Mate tea. We also explore the optimal kind of diet and dietary supplements one could strongly consider when following a holistic GLP-1 program. As well as the so-called “Seven Cs” to avoid. Guberman wisely cautions against the notion of viewing GLP-1 treatments as a panacea to America’s obesity epidemic—reminding us that without a strong focus on the four pillars of sensible nutrition, most of the weight loss achieved by GLP-1 patients is likely to be fleeting and therefore unsuccessful. We cover some amazing ground on this podcast, including the very hot topic of micro-dosing GLP-1’s—that is utilizing only a “minimum effective dose” of these peptides for the healthiest and most long-term, sustainable benefits. So let’s get into it!
00:00 – Intro: The “7 Cs” to Avoid While Taking GLP-1 Medications 02:52 – Big Pharma vs. Natural Medicine: Will RFK Jr. be a game-changer to the toxic food industry? The battle against processed food and chemical additives. 04:48 – The Truth About Our Food Supply: Why U.S. food is laced with harmful chemicals & how Europe is leading the way in banning toxic additives. 06:44 – How to Choose the Right Supplements: Why blindly buying supplements at Whole Foods could be a mistake. 08:03 – Are You Addicted to Food? The truth about "food noise" and how to naturally rebalance hunger hormones like GLP-1. 10:53 – Why Big Pharma Fears Nutrition: How natural alternatives like berberine and Yerba Mate could replace prescription drugs. 13:45 – The Hidden Dangers of Organic Foods: What you should know before buying organic & why hydroponics might be a better option. 16:05 – GLP-1 Medications & America’s Obesity Crisis: The shocking truth about how much money is 19:18 – The Case for Microdosing GLP-1: Why smaller doses, combined with lifestyle changes, may be the key to sustainable weight loss. 21:36 – Natural GLP-1 Boosters: How to enhance weight loss with supplements like berberine, Yerba Mate, and fiber. 24:07 – What Your Bloodwork Says About Your Health: The key markers to watch for metabolic health, inflammation and vitamin deficiencies. 29:08 – The Menopause & Perimenopause Puzzle: Why hormone balancing has become unnecessarily complicated & nutritional recommendations 32:36 – The Best Natural Hormone Balancers: Should you microdose bioidentical hormones? A look at Phyto B, Siberian rhubarb, and natural alternatives. 35:25 – Ideal progression of treatment from “What are your symptoms?” to “What were your symptoms?” 39:51 – The Future of Cancer & Functional Medicine: Exciting research on alternative therapies, including venus fly trap extract & infrared therapy. 42:21 – Should Dr. Guberman start a podcast? He considers launching his own show & Elizabeth shares tips on getting started. 44:16 – Dr. Guberman’s Supplements for top-rated holistic health solutions.

| 01 Nov 2024 | #40 - "The Yes Code" & EFT Tapping (with Carol Look) | 00:54:57 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight, we are joined by one of the leading thinkers in the world on one of Elizabeth’s favorite topics: her name is Carol Look, and the topic is EFT Tapping, which stands for “Emotional Freedom Technique.”
We caught up with Carol just as her new book The Yes Code: Transforming Sabotage into Success was being published in October and almost immediately shot to number one in the Personal Transformation and Stress Management categories of Amazon’s best-seller lists.
Throughout the podcast, Carol and Elizabeth explore how EFT Tapping technique—Carol calls it “psychological acupuncture”—draws directly from the meridian system of over 5,000 years of Chinese Medicine. With benefits for anyone struggling with often incurable conditions like: depression, obesity, anxiety as well as the all-too-common and suffocating malaise of “stuckness” preventing many of us from realizing our full potential.
This episode also identifies the Seven Major Sabotage Behaviors Carol outlines in her book, with a tactical roadmap for overcoming them.

| 27 Aug 2024 | #38 - "The Skinny" on GLP-1s Like Ozempic (with Dr. Robert Todd Hurst) | 01:00:14 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight, we welcome Dr. Robert Todd Hurst back onto the show—for call it Round 2— to discuss everything that has happened in the world of GLP-1 weight loss medications in the 18 months since we last spoke with him.
Unless you have been living under a very large rock somewhere, no doubt you have heard the news from all media and social media sources about the explosive rise of so-called "miracle" semaglutide drugs like Ozempic, Mounjaro and Tirzepatide both in the U.S. and worldwide.
And beyond the celebrities touting it, you most likely have at least one friend or acquaintance who has dropped 30+ pounds in the last six months (and almost looks like a different person) who very likely is a GLP-1 patient.
Basically, this stuff is everywhere, and we can’t stop talking about it!
This podcast covers just about everything you would want to know or ask about these medications, like: do they live up to the hype? What is the risk of regaining the weight you may lose while taking them? Are the dosages recommended by their pharmaceutical manufacturers too high? How big of a concern is muscle loss? We even talk about the issue of so-called “Ozempic face” and what Hurst separately identifies as his single greatest fear about these drugs.
All of these questions taken into consideration, Hurst powerfully observes how GLP-1 medications are undoubtedly among the most fascinating and impactful molecules in healthcare today with effective treatment applications that reach beyond diabetes and obesity to heart disease, kidney disease and possibly even Parkinson’s.

| 01 May 2024 | #34 - Neuroplasticity & The Lightning Process (with Dr. Phil Parker) | 00:49:13 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight, we are joined by the wonderful Dr. Phil Parker to discuss everything from his ground-breaking “Lightning Process;” to neuroplasticity; to philosophical life lessons from the musical genius of Miles Davis; to Phil’s own so-called “Swiss Army Knife” for disentangling the human mind.
Throughout the podcast, Phil describes how in his own hero’s journey: as a young man and aspiring musician he nearly completely severed his hand; how against the odds, he recovered from that nerve-slicing experience (despite the advice of almost all available doctors); and went on to develop his own “Lightning Process” and play music with Eric Clapton in the process.
We also learn how Phil applies the power and pitfalls of identity thinking to the issues of addiction and alcoholism to unlock the hidden wisdoms inside so-called 12 Step Programs.
With his scientific fascination with language, his deeply held beliefs about the transformative nature of the human mind, and his charming love of music, Phil’s visit to the podcast was one of the most memorable to date. It is a pleasure to share that conversation with you here.

| 01 Apr 2025 | #45 - Hormone Therapy + GLP-1: The New Midlife Rx (with Dr. Suzanne Lenz) | 00:37:36 | |
In this action-packed episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz to unpack the biggest misconceptions surrounding menopause, and introduce the concept of using GLP-1 medications in chorus with hormone replacement therapy for positive health (and weight-release) outcomes. An OB/GYN, Integrative Health Practitioner and author of Menopause Bootcamp, Dr. Suzanne’s insights sound like a battle cry for women to optimize their health and empower themselves and flourish as they age. Throughout the high-energy discussion, Elizabeth and Dr. Suzanne discuss the biggest myths about menopause, and dive into the real deal about HRT—what works, what doesn’t, and what you need to know if you’re thinking about adding it to your GLP-1 journey. If you’re interested in a holistic approach to GLP-1s, this combo could be a game changer—not just for weight loss, but for inflammation, energy and even long-term brain health. As Dr. Suzanne says, we seem to have entered the Wild West of discovering the full potential of GLP-1 agonist medications. So if you’ve been wondering how to feel better, think clearer, and actually release weight—body, mind, and soul—you’re going to want to give this one a listen! *** CLICK HERE TO GET ==> FREE MASTERCLASS - "Freedom From Food Noise": https://go.elizabethmcgann.com/start *** SHOW NOTES [ 00:00 ] Meet Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz, OB/GYN, integrative health pioneer, menopause educator and fierce truth-teller.

| 13 Jun 2023 | #24 - Change Your Mind on Psychedelics (with Dr. Rick Barnett) | 00:47:46 | |
How could you safely use psychedelics to break out of patterns that keep you stuck?
With the help of my friend Dr. Rick Barnett, we discuss the benefits and stigma that surrounds the use of psychedelic therapy to overcome depression, disordered eating and various addictions.
We also cover the potentially powerful role psychedelics can play as effective pattern interrupters of human behavior and what treatments are currently legal in the United States.
Rick is a licensed clinical psychologist and drug and alcohol counselor practicing in Vermont. In long-term recovery himself, he is also a pioneer in the medical use of psychedelics, co-founding the Psychedelic Society of Vermont in 2021.
From Tommy Rosen's concept of the "frequency of addiction" to powerful insights from Eckhart Tolle, Judson Brewer and Alcoholics Anonymous co-Founder Bill W, this podcast covers a lot of territory that will be useful to anyone interested in overcoming obstacles and personal transformation.
So let’s get into it!

| 01 Oct 2023 | #27 - A Deep Dive into Body Neutrality (with Jessi Kneeland) | 00:55:59 | |
In this episode, we explore the endlessly interesting and controversial topics of body image, body positivity and so-called “body neutrality.”
Body Neutral is an elusive and important concept that happens to be the title of a book just published in June 2023 by author Jessi Kneeland, who joins us in our Zoom podcast studio today.
With Jessi’s help, we unpack the systematic, step-by-step blueprint she offers in her book for overcoming the weight of body image issues in one’s life.
No stranger to identity cultural politics, Jessi-–who identifies as both non-binary and queer-–tackles head-on the trap of believing that the appearance of one’s body determines one’s worth in society.
Elizabeth first interviewed Jessi while doing a YouTube series called way back in 2015. The title of that episode fittingly was “How to Love Your Body.” You can watch it here at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ALBbEE2EaU
It’s so exciting to congratulate Jessi in the time warp of 8 years later, to review the substance of her brand new book and discuss how her ideas have evolved since that original conversation.

| 01 Feb 2025 | #43 - Weight, Trauma & Healing after the LA Fires: The Role of Ketamine Therapy (with Dr. Jenn Ellice) | 00:48:33 | |
This episode of The Holistic GLP-1 Podcast was recorded in the Los Angeles area in mid-January 2025, while the epically destructive LA fires were still burning. The interview subject was Dr. Jennifer Ellice, or “Dr. Jenn” as she is known at Golden Afternoon, the Ketamine clinic she owns and runs in Santa Monica—just a few miles away from where the Palisades Fire incinerated thousands of homes in one of the wealthiest zip codes in the United States. With those fires amounting to one of the worst natural disasters in American History, the topics of trauma and PTSD were intensely at the front of the discussion. Throughout the podcast, we explore how Ketamine works, and how people fresh from the experience of such traumas may directly benefit from this type of psychedelic therapy. We also discuss how Ketamine can produce a powerful and transformative healing effect on those suffering from more chronic issues like eating disorders, ongoing depression and anxiety. Dr. Jenn also specifically helps us understand how Ketamine therapy acts on the same “reward pathways” of the human brain as GLP-1 agonist medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro—and how a growing number of doctors are meaningfully prescribing Ketamine in conjunction with GLP-1 treatments for weight loss and other weight release purposes.

| 01 Apr 2024 | #33 - Menopause as a Leadership Passage (with Jane Aubriet-Beausire) | 00:28:47 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight the distinguished Jane Aubriet-Beausire joins us all the way from the UK in the first in a series of podcasts engaging the topic of menopause from a variety of thought-provoking and meaningful perspectives in 2024.
A talented executive leadership coach, world traveler and author of the ground-breaking article “Menopause as a Leadership Passage,” Jane draws upon her empowering experiences in the Maori culture of rural New Zealand and elsewhere to shed light on the experience of menopause: not as a distinct moment in time, but as a 15- to 20-year journey from perimenopause to menopause to post-menopause for most women.
The discussion touches upon how with the right diet, lifestyle and knowledgeable perspective, this important time in a woman’s life can be an aspirationally positive experience. With thoughts about the implications about Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the workplace, as well as andropause—the male version of menopause—also considered along the way.
Sincere thanks to Jane for providing much needed fresh thinking on a topic that any woman approaching the age of 50 and beyond will benefit from enormously.

| 01 Dec 2024 | #41 - Overcoming Generational Trauma (with Karena Virginia) | 01:05:00 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight, we are joined by Kundalini Yoga expert Karena Virginia to discuss her latest work in the fields of ancestral healing, epigenetics and overcoming generational trauma.
The author of the critically influential book Essential Kundalini Yoga and an early forerunner of the Me Too movement, Karena is a highly sought after leader in yogic philosophy as it applies to daily life and a voice of feminine courage confronting sexual abuse.
In this podcast, Karena explains how unaddressed generational trauma is often the root cause of afflictions people suffer from, showing up in many identifiable forms: including obesity issues, addiction disorders of various kinds, depression and the widely experienced feeling of being unable to function in modern society.
Karena also shares the story of how she chose to publicly speak out about being sexually groped by Donald Trump (after a decade of silence) in 2016; and how she later struggled with being a leader in the Kundalini yoga space after its founder Yogi Bhajan was outed for sexual abuse in 2019.
A mixture of both light and dark, this podcast is a must listen for anyone needing a metaphysical uplift in challenging times!

| 01 Jun 2024 | #35 - Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique & You (with Jeroen de Wit) | 00:46:59 | |
In this episode of Drop the Weight, we speak with Master Healer and Level 3 QHHT Practitioner Jeroen de Wit. For those of you not yet familiar: QHHT stands for Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique and is a mode of healing that has gained significant traction in the healing community of late.
The legendary influence of QHHT’s founder Dolores Cannon is strongly felt throughout the discussion. It was through Jeroen’s discovery and 1-on-1 work with Cannon (who died in 2014) that he found his voice and calling as a healer who has gone on to work with over 2500 hundred clients.
Beginning with a basic tour of the contours of what QHHT is; to a consideration of such 5D concepts as The Akashic Records; to Tucker Carlson’s recent talk about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena with Joe Rogan; to the inspired book Jeroen is now writing based on his experiences; this podcast covers a breathtaking amount of ground (and pulls no metaphysical punches) as we depart from what Jeroen and Elizabeth refer to as “consensus reality” throughout.
