In this episode of The Holistic GLP-1 Podcast, Elizabeth sits down with McCall McPherson, PA—founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic and Modern Weight Loss—for a conversation that completely reframes what GLP-1 therapies actually do for the body.

McCall explains why GLP-1s may be one of the most important medical breakthroughs of our time—not simply because of weight loss, but because of their powerful impact on inflammation, metabolism, hormones, chronic disease and even longevity. Together, they explore how GLP-1s affect thyroid health, insulin and leptin resistance, cardiovascular risk, autoimmune conditions, muscle preservation and more!

They also unpack why standard dosing often causes unnecessary side effects, how micro-dosing changes outcomes, and how to use GLP-1s as a true healing tool—not a quick fix. If you want to understand the future of metabolic health, this episode is a must-listen.
