Starting a GLP-1? Here are 5 things I’d want you to know first.

GLP-1 medications can be incredibly effective — but they work best as part of a bigger plan.

Healthy nutrition, protecting muscle mass, choosing the right medication, and understanding lifestyle factors all matter just as much as the prescription itself.

And for many people, the benefits go beyond the number on the scale.

While aging is inevitable, how you age is highly influenced by lifestyle and hormone balance.

What actually matters:

• Hormones – Changes in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone can affect energy, mood, libido, bone health, and cardiovascular risk.
• Nutrition – A nutrient-rich diet supports hormone balance and healthier aging.
• Exercise – Regular movement supports strength, brain health, and long-term vitality.
• Social connection – Staying connected supports mental health and cognitive function.

Aging isn’t passive.
With the right support, you can be proactive about how you age.

There’s a lot of noise surrounding GLP-1 medications — and not all of it is accurate.

From side effects to weight regain to who these medications are actually for, misinformation can make it hard to know what’s true and what’s not.

GLP-1s aren’t magic, but they can be a helpful tool when used thoughtfully, with the right expectations and proper medical guidance.

We believe informed patients make the best decisions.

If I was struggling with perimenopause, here’s what I’d leave behind in 2025.

-Being told to “just deal with it.”
-Waiting until things get worse.
-Blaming myself for changes I didn’t choose.

For 2026, you deserve informed, individualized care, designed around your symptoms and your life.

So you want to try Magnesium… but not sure what form you need?

✨ Citrate → best for digestion + regularity
✨ Glycinate → calming, gentle, great for sleep + stress
✨ L-Threonate → supports memory, focus, and brain health
There isn’t one “universal” magnesium — it all depends on your goals and symptoms.

Everyone wants the “one supplement” that melts fat fast… but here’s the truth:
No supplement — not even the good ones — can replace consistent habits, balanced hormones, and a personalized plan.

Yes, we sometimes use targeted supplements to support metabolism, insulin sensitivity, inflammation, and cravings…
But no pill alone is the solution.

If real, sustainable weight loss is your goal, you deserve a plan that actually works with your biology — not false promises.

❤️ Let’s talk about heart health and hormone therapy, especially for women.

The data is clear:
When started early, estrogen can prevent cardiovascular disease.
But what about women who are 10+ years into menopause? Should they miss out?

Here’s what Monica Bell, DNP, says:

“Estrogen lowers inflammation, improves cholesterol, reduces insulin resistance, and improves quality of life. Why would we withhold it?”

It’s time to move past outdated fear and into evidence-based care.
Your heart deserves more than “wait and see.” 🩺

You can have “normal” labs and still feel exhausted, foggy, inflamed, anxious, or completely unlike yourself.

And that’s because “normal” doesn’t mean optimal.

This is why OHH reads labs differently.
We use targeted, evidence-based optimal ranges and look at hormone balance, patterns over time, and how your symptoms show up in real life.

Your symptoms and lived experience matters just as much as the number on the page.
And you deserve care that reflects that.

Ever feel like every doctor has a different opinion on HRT?
One tells you it’s dangerous… another says you need it or you’ll age poorly.
Here’s the truth:
There are women who age beautifully with hormones.
And women who age beautifully without them.

There’s no black-and-white answer.
Your decision should be based on:
✨ Your goals
✨ Your personal risks + benefits
✨ Medications tailored specifically to you

You deserve a provider who helps you make the right choice for your life—not a fear-based one. 🤝

It’s not always glamorous—but lifestyle is medicine.

When I first met Monica, I was dealing with PCOS, acne, anxiety, joint pain, and constant fatigue. In my 20s!

But I also wasn’t moving my body, eating intentionally, managing stress, or truly participating in my health.

Learning lifestyle medicine (and actually applying it) changed everything. And honestly? It’s been simple habits that have made the biggest change:
✔️ Produce at every meal
✔️ Resistance training + walking
✔️ No alcohol
✔️ Stress + sleep support
✔️ Being proactive in my body & health

Small daily choices add up. Big time.
