Description

Today, we are joined by Dr. Myra Ahmad of Mochi Health and Rachael from our GLP1 Mounjaro TikTok Community. We focus on how many things attribute to obesity. Rachael discusses her battle with childhood obesity, genetic obesity, PCOS, ADHD, and a binge eating disorder that started at the age of 8. She shares her testimony on how Mounjaro has completely changed her life for the better and improved her mental and physical health. Dr. Myra Ahmad is an obesity specialist and the Co-Founder & CEO of Mochi Health, a telehealth obesity practice. She graduated from the University of Washington School of Medicine, UCSF Medical Center. In her career, Dr. Ahmad witnessed providers use shame when discussing a patient's hypertension, dismiss other medical concerns due to bias, and refuse to use safe and affordable medications in favor of "diet and exercise only" strategies. She felt that these providers didn't see the value in listening to patients. She is here today to discuss everything from study data on GLP1 trials to her position on compound pharmacies that produce Semaglutide and Tirzepatide for patients who cannot get insurance coverage or cannot afford the often $1000 + monthly cash pay price. Support the showKim Carlos @DMFKimonMounjaro on TikTokJernine Trott @TheeJernine on TikTokKat Carter @KatCarter7 on TikTokLydia Roberts @mounjaro_GLP_Help on TikTok

The Plus SideZ is a Health and Wellness podcast that grew out of a TikTok trend turned movement! Our mission is to educate people & remove the stigma that surrounds obesity. We advocate for access to affordable medications for ALL who need it! Join us weekly to hear inspiring stories from community members who have struggled with obesity and related health conditions like PCOS, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes as they share how GLP1 medication therapy like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro has improved their lives. We also bring in medical obesity experts, pharmacists, health insurance specialists, and heads of DEI to provide scientific and factual information to support these stories. Join the MOVEMENT as we journey towards a healthier and more inclusive society.Want to donate?
