The conversation explores the seismic impact of GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy\u2014and how functional medicine can pivot from a \u201cweight loss\u201d mindset to a \u201cweight health\u201d approach. Koff reframes these medications not as magic bullets, but as biosimilar hormone replacement tools that \u201cswitch on\u201d receptor sites\u2014without repairing the underlying ecosystem. She outlines a five-part Weight Health Hormone assessment and introduces a Physician\u2013Dietitian\u2013Health Coach triad to ensure sustainable outcomes. The episode challenges practitioners to stay \u201cagnostic about the agonist\u201d and instead focus on metabolic repair, patient education, and structured team-based care. &amp;nbsp; About the Guest: Ashley Koff, RD is a registered dietitian and functional nutrition expert focused on metabolic health, personalized nutrition, and hormone signaling. She is the author of Your Best Shot and advocates for a \u201cWeight Health\u201d approach that integrates assessment, repair, and team-based implementation. &amp;nbsp; Ashley Koff, RD Website:  https:\/\/thebetternutritionprogram.com\/your-best-shot\/#Order?utm_source=ig&amp;amp;utm_medium=social&amp;amp;utm_content=link_in_bio&amp;amp;fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGn0Q9_BL_AVS4TE9ropSLtTkwP2y5sIOqKsbxZaaKPv3nNMm0Tq8QuWidcGUk_aem_U9Z5knW9eqsiMjw19fzflA&amp;nbsp; Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ashleykoffapproved\/?hl=en Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ashleykoffapproved\/ Linkedin: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ashley-koff\/ &amp;nbsp; James Maskell Website:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.jamesmaskell.com\/ Instagram:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mrjamesmaskell Facebook:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/jamesedwardmaskell\/ LinkedIn:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jamesmaskell   Thank you for listening.
