🔥 No one expects THIS when starting GLP-1…
But GLP-1 + alcohol intolerance is very real.
Let’s talk about it 👇🏼
Most people think GLP-1 medications only affect appetite…
but they also change how your body processes alcohol.
Here’s what actually happens:
✨ Your stomach empties slower
✨ Alcohol hits your system quicker
✨ Your tolerance drops dramatically
✨ You get dizzy or nauseated faster
✨ Hangovers feel 10× worse
✨ Blood sugar becomes more unstable
And if you’re in your 40s or 50s?
Perimenopause + GLP-1 + alcohol can feel like a triple whammy to your nervous system and metabolism.
This doesn’t mean you can never drink again —
but it DOES mean you need to understand how your body is changing.
Sometimes it’s not the alcohol…
👉 It’s how your hormones and GLP-1 are interacting behind the scenes.
