Earn Your Protocol by HollyFit

Losing hair on your GLP-1? It's not the drug.
In this episode of Earn Your Protocol, HollyFit founder Kyle Holland and medical director Dr. Michael Harrington answer 13 of your questions, starting with the one we get most: does GLP-1 cause hair loss, or is it something else?
In this episode:
  • Why rapid weight loss, not the GLP-1 itself, causes hair shedding
  • Why there's no medication that replaces the nutrients from food
  • Why Dr. Harrington takes 20g of creatine a day for brain health
  • Cardio vs strength training as you get older, and why a broken hip is so dangerous
  • Why you crave sugar, and why you're tired even with enough sleep
  • Rapid fire on goal weight, peptides, fasted cardio, low-dose GLP-1 and the sauna
