50 Best Foods for GLP-1 Users
The top 50 foods recommended for people taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. Scored by nutrition and tolerance.
Understanding Food Tolerance on GLP-1
When taking GLP-1 medications, your body processes food differently. Gastric emptying slows down, appetite hormones shift, and certain foods that never caused issues before can suddenly become difficult to tolerate. Understanding which foods work best for your current symptoms is key to maintaining proper nutrition.
Each food below is rated on a tolerance scale from 0 to 1 for five common GLP-1 side effects. A score of 0.8 or higher means the food is well-tolerated for that symptom. A score below 0.5 means you should avoid it when experiencing that symptom.
