GLP-1 medications are everywhere, but the science is often misunderstood. Dermatologist Dr Ryan De Cruz explains how GLP-1s influence appetite and metabolism, why responses vary, what side effects are commonly overlooked, and what’s known about muscle, skin, and long-term use. He also unpacks popular myths and online fears, focusing on evidence over hype. This episode is for general education only and does not replace personalised medical advice.
