$Are GLP-1s Killing Your Bones? Rapid Weight Loss & Bone Health - Fact Or Fiction? 📩 Contact us: talkingwithdocs@gmail.com GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and similar treatments have become some of the most talked-about medications for weight loss and diabetes — and for many people they’ve been life-changing. But with rapid weight loss comes important questions: how does losing weight affect your bones, could bone density change over time, and what can you do to help protect your bone health while on these medications? In this video of Talking With Docs, Dr. Brad Weening and Dr. Paul Zalzal break down what GLP-1 medications are, how they help with weight loss, and what current research says about bone density and fracture risk. They explain why rapid weight loss can change how bones respond to load, why muscle mass matters, and what simple steps may help support bone health during your weight loss journey. Dr. Brad and Dr. Paul discuss how bones constantly remodel and adapt, why both gravity and muscle help maintain bone strength, and what can happen when body weight drops quickly. They also review the current evidence around GLP-1 medications and fractures, why research is still evolving, and practical strategies like resistance training, protein intake, calcium, and vitamin D that may help protect your bones while improving your overall health. You’ll learn: • What GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy actually do • How GLP-1 medications support weight loss and diabetes management • Why rapid weight loss may affect bone density • How bones constantly remodel and respond to load • Why muscle mass matters for bone health • How losing weight can reduce force placed on bones • The possible connection between GLP-1 medications and fracture risk • Why current studies on bone health and GLP-1s are mixed • Why resistance training may help protect your bones • The importance of weight-bearing exercise during weight loss • Why protein intake matters when losing weight • Calcium and vitamin D tips for bone support • When to talk to your doctor about bone density testing • How to think about risks vs benefits with GLP-1 medications • Why losing excess weight can still improve long-term health • Practical ways to support your bones while using GLP-1 medications If you’re taking Ozempic, Wegovy, or another GLP-1 medication — or considering starting one — this conversation explains what we currently know about bone health, what questions to ask, and what you can do to stay proactive while reaching your health goals. 🎧 Listen on Your Favourite Platforms: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3OFxEjictC41CCS1z2AVKe Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/talking-with-docs/id1799242189 YouTube Music: • TWD Podcast 👕 Shop Our MERCH: https://www.spreadshirt.ca/shop/user/talking+with+docs/ ❤️ Support Oakville Hospital: https://donate.oakvillehospitalfoundation.com 📱 Follow Us: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkingwithdocs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkingwithdocs/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063617375848 🛑 DISCLAIMER: This content is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
