GLP-1 medications like Ozempic drive weight loss—up to 15% in a year (JAMA, 2021)—but constipation can clog your progress. At auravi, Gut Balance and Hydrate get you moving. Let’s explore why it happens, how to manage it, and why our supplements are your fix, with science leading the charge.
Why GLP-1 Causes Constipation
GLP-1 slows gastric emptying and gut motility by 20-30% (Diabetes Care, 2020), aiding fullness but stalling digestion. A Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology study (2021) found 25-30% of users report constipation, worsened by lower food and fluid intake—key drivers of bowel regularity (Gastroenterology, 2019).
Constipation’s Toll
It’s more than discomfort—bloating and irregularity sap energy and motivation, risking GLP-1 adherence (Clinical Nutrition, 2020). A sluggish gut also slows metabolism, countering weight loss (Gut Microbes, 2018)—you need relief fast.
Effective Solutions
Get regular with these tips:
- Up Fiber: 25-30 g daily—think oats or broccoli—softens stool (Nutrition Reviews, 2019).
- Hydrate Hard: 8-12 cups water daily—GLP-1 dehydrates (Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2018).
- Move More: 20 min walks stimulate bowels (Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2017).
- Time Meals: Consistent eating cues your gut (Journal of Gastroenterology, 2020).
