• Microdosing GLP1s Has Gone Mainstream | Quick + Dirty

  EP. 201: On this quick-and-dirty solo episode, I'm diving into a brand-new article just published in Diabetes Care (March 2025, Vol. 48): "One Size Does Not Fit All: Understanding Microdosing Semaglutide for Diabetes and Multi-Dose Pens." This opinion piece by respected endocrinologists signals a massive shift in the conversation—one I’ve been screaming from the rooftops for over a year. While I’m not claiming credit (ok maybe a little), I am thrilled to see microdosing GLP-1s being acknowledged by mainstream medicine… even if they’re still getting a lot of it, well, OFF. Let’s be clear: microdosing  was NEVER meant to be a weight loss strategy, even thought that’s what everyone seems to think it’s for. And if you’re NOT using these drugs without a full metabolic support plan—protein, lifting, hormones, insulin sensitivity—you’re setting yourself (or your patients) up to fail. Topics Discussed:  What the pen-click method is and why it's a game-changer Why splitting up a full dose is not microdosing (despite what TikTok tells you) The difference between low-dosing, standard dosing, and true microdosing Why microdosing isn’t a long-term solution for weight loss or type 2 diabetes How this concept can support tolerability, access, and personalized care Why most “microdosing” marketing is just sloppy semantics The real clinical rationale behind true microdosing How to use GLP-1s intelligently as part of a broader metabolic protocol I break it all down in this episode, and if you want to go deeper, grab my free 4-part video series at drtyna.com/ozempicuncovered — it’ll walk you straight into the most comprehensive GLP-1 course available for clinicians and smart self-healers alike.
