Food Junkies Podcast Ep. 229: Dr. Alexandra Sowa, MD The Ozempic Revolution

Dr. Alexandra Sowa—board-certified in internal and obesity medicine and author of The Ozempic Revolution—joins us to unpack the complex intersection of GLP-1 medications, metabolic health, and food addiction recovery. With clinical rigor and heartfelt empathy, Dr. Sowa explores what GLP-1s like Ozempic are really doing to food noise, why outcomes vary, and how sustainable change requires more than medication alone. We dive into the emotional grief of losing food as comfort, the role of behavioral and lifestyle interventions, and how clinicians and food addiction counselors can unite for true, lasting healing. Whether you’re a provider, patient, or person in recovery, this is a must-listen.
