You've tried diets. You've tried exercise. But the weight keeps coming back. It's time to look deeper. GLP-1 is a hormone your body naturally produces, primarily in the gut. Your microbiome can influence the signals involved in appetite and metabolism. Dr. Kellman brings a physician-led, microbiome-informed perspective to personalized weight management.
Learn how your body's natural GLP-1 signaling connects with gut health, appetite, and metabolism.
GLP-1 is a hormone released by cells in your intestines—not a postbiotic made by bacteria. However, microbial metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids, can influence GLP-1 secretion. Research is exploring whether targeted nutrition and certain probiotics can support metabolic health, but it has not established that taking probiotics reliably increases the effectiveness of prescription GLP-1 medications.
Dr. Kellman's approach looks beyond the prescription: evaluating your health history, nutrition, metabolic factors, and gut health to develop an individualized plan.
A highly effective, enhanced semaglutide formulation designed to support lasting and sustainable weight loss — paired with microbiome support to increase metabolism, build muscle, and shed visceral fat rather than lean mass.
Ask if you qualify →Supports cellular energy production, often paired with GLP-1 and metabolic protocols. Many patients report increased energy within 1–3 days, administered as a simple in-office or at-home injection.
Ask about NAD+ →Most GLP-1 protocols overlook the gut ecosystem that produces these compounds naturally. By restoring microbiome balance alongside medication, patients see improved metabolic response, reduced side effects, and better long-term weight maintenance.
