What Should You Take Daily on a GLP-1? The Complete Checklist

Disclaimer: this article is informational and not medical advice. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before combining supplements with GLP-1 medication.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound work by suppressing your appetite. You eat less — but your body still needs the same nutrients. That's exactly where the problem starts: eating less often means too little protein, vitamins and minerals. Below is the complete checklist of what deserves your daily attention.

1. Protein — protect your muscle mass

With rapid weight loss you lose not only fat, but also muscle mass. Enough protein, combined with strength training, helps prevent that. Aim for a protein-rich base at every meal, even when you're eating less. Also read our guides on muscle loss on GLP-1 medication and what to eat on Mounjaro & Zepbound.

2. Vitamins A, D, E, B12 and iron

Smaller, often lower-fat meals can lead to deficiencies in the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E, plus B12 and iron. A daily multivitamin fills these gaps. A B12 deficiency in particular shows up quickly in your energy levels — read why you feel tired on GLP-1 and what helps.

3. Electrolytes and hydration

Eating and drinking less means less sodium, potassium and magnesium. Electrolytes help against fatigue, headaches and muscle cramps — common complaints among GLP-1 users.

4. Magnesium and fibre against side effects

Constipation and slow digestion are among the well-known side effects. Magnesium and enough fibre support your gut. Want to know more? Read what Mounjaro does to your gut.

5. Omega-3

Omega-3 fatty acids support your heart, brain and recovery — especially important when your total food intake drops.
