48 more items in Glp-1 Shot Transition to Supplements PlanSubject: Supporting Your Weight Loss Journey: Transitioning from GLP-1 Medications AVAILABLE TO DISCUSS WITH YOUR PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER Not intended to use without support from a provider. Hi there From PA Nicole, As you begin to transition off prescription GLP-1 medications, I want to ensure you feel supported with the right tools to maintain your weight loss and continue moving toward your health goals. GLP-1 medications have been a powerful jumpstart, but long-term success comes from building sustainable habits supported by high-quality supplementation, a low-carb nutrient-dense diet, and an active lifestyle. Below is a recommended supplement plan designed to optimize your metabolism, support appetite control, reduce inflammation, balance glucose, and help maintain your progress. Plan to start these before stopping the GLP-1 shots (in the last month if possible): Days 1-5: 1. ProThrivers™ Wellness Multivitamin A well-rounded, oncology-formulated multivitamin that supports daily cellular health, stress resilience, and nutritional repletion—important as we shift away from pharmaceutical support. 2. Berberine + Chromium A natural alternative to metformin that improves insulin sensitivity and supports healthy lipid metabolism. One below : OR https://equi.life/products/berberine?irad=1923800&irmp=7061522 3. MetaFiber® A blend of soluble and insoluble fiber that helps with satiety, stabilizing blood sugar, and supporting regular bowel movements—especially important during dietary transitions. Then ….. Days 5-10 add to above daily: 4. Calocurb Amarasate Appetite Control Plant-based support for appetite regulation via gut-brain signaling. It mimics some of the satiety effects of GLP-1 naturally. 5. Strength by InfiniWell Adaptogenic formula to support energy, stress response, and hormone balance—especially helpful as the body adjusts to life post-GLP-1. 6. GLP-1 Probiotic Pro (Pendulum) Contains Akkermansia and other strains shown to enhance the body’s natural GLP-1 production and maintain metabolic health post-medication. Then… days 10-15 add to above daily: 7. Creatine (Thorne) Supports lean muscle maintenance, strength, and metabolic function—especially important when paired with resistance exercise. 8. L-Glutamine (Lidtke) An amino acid that supports gut lining repair, reduces sugar cravings, and helps preserve lean muscle mass. 9. Glucose Control Pro (Pendulum) Supports healthy glucose levels with targeted probiotics and polyphenols—ideal for maintaining glycemic control after stopping GLP-1s. Then… days 15-20 add to above daily: 10. MegaMarine (Gut-Specific Fish Oil) High in EPA/DHA and designed to support gut health and reduce systemic inflammation, which can improve insulin sensitivity and support fat metabolism. 11. Weight Management Formula (Professional Formulas) A gentle homeopathic option to support metabolism, fat burning, and appetite regulation. For improving weight loss efforts by temporarily relieving increased appetite or cravings, occasional headache, and irritability due to a restricted diet. Consider adding these as protein and electrolyte options: 12. Plant Protein+ or ProVeg Organic Pea Protein Clean, plant-based proteins to help maintain muscle mass and keep you full—ideal for meal replacement or post-workout recovery. Offering 15g of protein, 4g of carbs and 0g of sugar, Plant Protein+ is an easy and delicious way to power your day. It’s great post-exercise to support muscle strength and recovery or to fortify your daily diet. AND KETO Electrolyte Powder (Trace Minerals) Supports hydration, energy, and electrolyte balance, especially helpful during carb restriction or intermittent fasting.Keto friendly - 0g Carbs - Replenishes lost electrolytes† - Rapid rehydration† - Sustained energy & endurance† - NO muscle cramps† - Efficient muscle recovery† - Full spectrum trace mineral & electrolyte complex - Delicious flavor OR Any other favorite protein powder OR electrolyte drink. How to Begin: • The Month before stopping shots: Start with 2-3 new supplements every 3–5 days to allow your body to adjust. This helps reduce the chance of digestive discomfort and ensures optimal absorption. • Take all products with food unless otherwise instructed. Morning or lunchtime is often ideal to support energy and appetite regulation. • Intermittent Fasting: If you’re not already practicing it, begin intermittent fasting at least 2 weeks before stopping GLP-1. A common approach is the 16:8 method—eating all meals within an 8-hour window and fasting for 16 hours (e.g., 11 AM–7 PM). This helps your body maintain insulin sensitivity and fat-burning rhythms. • Low-Carb Diet: Transition to a low-carb, whole-food-based diet at least 2 weeks before stopping the medication. Focus on protein (chicken, turkey, eggs, fish), healthy fats (avocado, olive oil, nuts), and fiber-rich vegetables (leafy greens, cruciferous veggies). Avoid processed carbs and sugars to stabilize blood glucose and hunger signals. Aim for 90g protein a day. • Hydration: Aim for at least 80–100 oz of water daily. Adding electrolytes (like in the Keto Electrolyte Powder) can prevent fatigue, headaches, and muscle cramps—especially during carb restriction or fasting. • Movement: Stay physically active with a goal of 30 minutes per day, at least 5 days a week. This can include brisk walking, weight training, yoga, swimming, or cycling for example—anything that helps maintain muscle and supports mood, metabolism, and glucose control. • Continue these supplements for 5-6 months to give your body the best chance to recalibrate after GLP-1 therapy. Note: These habits need to become routine , and will help your body transition off the GLP-1 medication more smoothly and ensure the supplements work effectively to support your ongoing weight and health goals. Remember, weight loss is about more than medication. It’s about creating a new foundation for long-term health, and this plan is built to do just that—with the right fuel, nutrients, and lifestyle support. I understand that this supplement plan may seem like a $$$$💸 financial investment , but it’s important to recognize that the long-term cost of GLP-1 injections—often ranging from several hundred to over a thousand dollars per month—far exceeds the cost of this targeted, nutrient-rich support. These supplements are carefully chosen to work synergistically to help your body function optimally, reduce cravings naturally, and maintain weight loss without ongoing pharmaceutical dependency. This approach not only supports your health more holistically but is also far more sustainable financially over time. ps. please also see the attachments for support during this transition. Kindly, In health, Dr. Nicole Hoff, DMS, PA-C

Ivermectin: 0.4 to 0.6 mg/kg – one dose daily for at least 5 days or until symptoms resolve. If symptoms persist longer than 7 days, consult a healthcare provider.

8 more items in PA Nicole’s Mood Support-Bipolar Depression PlanHello. It was a pleasure speaking with you. Attached you can find the products I think will be best suited to help with your mood symptoms. Please follow the instructions and follow up if you have any questions. 1. N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine Life Extension ( NAC ) is an antioxidant that may help prevent cancer and is often used to treat acetaminophen poisoning. A review of six clinical trials published in November 2021 in Bipolar Disorders suggested NAC supplements alongside standard treatments for bipolar depression was better than placebo. 2. Lithium (orotate) 1mg Pure Encapsulations The essential trace element lithium supports healthy mental function, including mood, emotion, memory and behavior. It is recommended that individuals taking this supplement have lithium levels and kidney function monitored regularly. 3. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) + Omega-3 + EPA/DHA NOW Foods Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an antioxidant that helps keep the cells in your body healthy, according to the Mayo Clinic . The evidence Two hundred mg of CoQ10 per day, taken alongside standard mood stabilizers and antidepressant medication , was better than placebo at reducing bipolar depression over eight weeks, according to a study published in the October 2018 Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology . The study authors theorized that CoQ10 may benefit bipolar depression because of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Previous research has shown that inflammation may play a role in the development of bipolar depression, they noted. Omega-3 fatty acids are healthy fats that your body needs to function at its best. They’re very beneficial for heart and brain health, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Dietary Supplements . There are three types: Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), found mainly in plant oils Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), found mainly in seafood and seaweed Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), found mainly in seafood and seaweed Foods or supplements containing omega-3 fatty acids appear to improve bipolar symptoms, according to a systematic review of 33 studies related to nutrition and bipolar disorder, published in May 2022 in Nutritional Neuroscience . EPA and DHA may be the most beneficial omega-3 fatty acids for people with mood disorders, say experts at Harvard Medical School in Boston. But some research suggests omega-3s may be helpful only for the depressed phase of bipolar disorder, Harvard experts add. The bottom line Omega-3 supplements have more robust evidence of benefit for mood disorders like bipolar disorder than other vitamins and supplements. 4. BioActive Folate & Vitamin B12 Life Extension Folate (aka vitamin B9 ) helps your cells grow and stay healthy, according to the Mayo Clinic . The synthetic form of folate, called folic acid, is used in supplements. Research published in BMC Psychiatry in 2019 found an association between low levels of folic acid and bipolar disorder. In a review published in a 2022 issue of Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy , investigators reported that 3 milligram (mg) folate supplements were effective and safe when used with the medicine sodium valproate to treat acute mania among people with bipolar I disorder . Additionally, folate supplements alongside traditional bipolar disorder treatment appears to be significantly better than placebo for depressive symptoms among people with either bipolar or unipolar depression, according to a systematic review of studies on folate for mental health conditions, published in the April 2020 Journal of Affective Disorders . 5. Liposomal Vitamin D 1000IU Dr. Mercola Premium Products Vitamin D helps your gut absorb calcium and maintain appropriate calcium levels for bone health, according to the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements . It’s found naturally in foods such as trout and salmon, added to foods like milk, and produced naturally in the body when your skin is exposed to the sun’s rays, NIH experts add. The evidence A study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology found that vitamin D deficiencies were nearly five times more common in people with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia , or schizoaffective disorder than in the general population. You can make sure you’re getting enough vitamin D by spending a few minutes outside in the sun each day, eating more vitamin D–rich foods (such as salmon, tuna, mushrooms, and egg yolks), or taking a dietary supplement with your providers guidance. 6. Nanosnooze - Melatonin + Magnesium + L-Theanine BioPharma Scientific Magnesium is a mineral that the body needs to keep your muscles, bones, nerves, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels healthy, according to the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements . The evidence Limited research has suggested that magnesium levels in the body may play a role in regulating mood. Magnesium supplementation may improve symptoms among people with depression, according to a systematic review of 32 studies of magnesium and mental health conditions, published in June 2020 in the journal Nutrients . Magnesium may be helpful for insomnia , which can precipitate mania or signal the start of a manic episode. Melatonin is a hormone the brain makes in response to darkness, according to the NIH . While melatonin may not target bipolar symptoms directly, the supplement is known to help with sleep, which is important for preventing mood episodes among people with bipolar disorder. Approximately 80 percent of individuals whose bipolar disorder is in remission still have sleep problems, according to a review published in August 2017 in Encéphale . “Patients with bipolar disorder have been shown to have a later release of their own melatonin, so taking a supplement may help bring on tiredness earlier in the evening,” says Rakofsky. Melatonin supplements in conjunction with the usual treatments for bipolar disorder appear to be helpful for managing sleep issues among people with the condition, a review published in Current Pharmaceutical Design found. Melatonin may help some people with bipolar disorder sleep better, which in turn promotes mood stability and helps prevent future mood episodes.
