Health Is the Key, a podcast
Beyond the GLP-1 Buzz, with Dr. Holly Lofton
Wednesday, July 1, 2026
Developed to help people manage type 2 diabetes and obesity, GLP-1 medications have become headline news for their role in weight loss. In our July episode, we ask Dr. Holly Lofton, Director of the Medical Weight Management Program at NYU Langone to look behind the headlines. Dr. Lofton explains what they are, how they work and why making healthy lifestyle changes and working with a primary care physician are essential to long-term success.
Tune in to this month’s Key Note on Wednesday, July 15, when Dr. Lofton breaks down the differences between injectable GLP-1 medications and the newer pill forms.
