Appetite is biology — not a flaw.
You may have heard the term “food noise.” But when the same phrase pops up everywhere, it’s usually marketing language, not medicine. Hunger, thoughts about food, and appetite signals are normal human physiology — not evidence that something is “wrong” with you.
In fact, a December 2025 Nature-indexed study looking at real-world data from adults prescribed GLP-1 medications found that nutrient deficiencies were commonly diagnosed within the first year of use.¹
When appetite is strongly suppressed, people naturally gravitate toward what feels tolerable — not always what the body actually needs. Over time, this can mean less protein and fewer micronutrients like iron, vitamin D, B vitamins, zinc, and calcium — all of which support:
✨ energy & mood
✨ hormones
✨ muscle & bone health
Appetite becomes louder when the body is:
• under-fueled
• under-nourished
• stressed
• depleted
Balance doesn’t come from silencing biology — it comes from nourishment and support.
This is why we don’t take deficiencies lightly.
