As a nutritionist, I've had more conversations about GLP-1s in the last year than almost any other topic, from clients already taking them, to people curious whether they should, to those simply wanting to understand what all the noise is about. So I wanted to write something balanced: not for or against, but a clear picture of what these medications...]]></description><link>https://www.matthewthomsonnutrition.co.uk/post/glp-1s-what-they-are-and-what-they-don-t-replace</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a880ac3e7e88d62b2eebea8</guid><pubDate>Fri, 21 Aug 2026 08:25:16 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/93d5be_6834f3453e7642ecbea98c1c3c922d43~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_998,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Matthew Thomson</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sugar, Insulin, and the Male Midlife Slump]]></title><description><![CDATA[There's a particular kind of tiredness that a lot of men in their 40s and 50s describe to me. It's not the tiredness of a bad night's sleep. It's more of a background fatigue, a flatness that coffee doesn't quite fix, a struggle to lose weight even though "nothing's really changed," and a general sense of running on a lower setting than they used to.

It plays a role in energy, mood, focus, and how your body manages fat and blood sugar.
