Explainers
Plain-language explainers on programs, terminology, and the wider GLP-1 landscape.
- On Hims for your GLP-1? Here's why you still want a dedicated trackerTelehealth apps handle the prescription and some habit logging. They don't model your medication level between doses or hold your full side-effect history. That gap is the point.
- Food noise: the first thing a GLP-1 changes, and what else it could quietenThe food noise going quiet is often the first thing a GLP-1 changes, and researchers tie it to the same reward-pathway quieting seen behind a range of other cravings.
- You reached your goal weight on a GLP-1: how not to regain itMost weight lost on a GLP-1 comes back within about 18 months of stopping. Maintenance is the hard part nobody plans for, but here's what actually holds the line.
