Challenge #3: Energy Depletion & Fatigue

It starts great. Your appetite is down. The weight begins to fall off. But soon, something else hits:

You feel tired. Foggy. Weak. Unmotivated.

This isn’t in your head—it’s GLP-1 fatigue, and it’s one of the most overlooked side effects of semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, and compounded GLP-1s.

Let’s break down why it happens—and more importantly, how to fix it.

🧬 Why Do GLP-1s Cause Fatigue?

GLP-1 receptor agonists reduce appetite and slow gastric emptying. That means:

You eat less
You absorb nutrients more slowly
You often don’t eat enough of the right things

Combine that with rapid weight loss, and your body begins signaling:

“I don’t have the fuel I need.”

🔋 Common Causes of GLP-1 Fatigue:

Micronutrient Deficiencies
- Lower intake of B vitamins, amino acids, carnitine, vitamin D, and magnesium
Mitochondrial Dysfunction
- Less ATP production = lower physical and cognitive energy
Reduced Protein & Amino Acids
- Your body lacks the raw materials to rebuild and recover
Muscle Loss
- Less lean mass = lower resting energy and strength
Over-restriction of Calories
- Your body shifts into metabolic conservation mode

The result: low energy, poor recovery, and mental fatigue—even while the scale is dropping.

⚡ How to Fix GLP-1 Fatigue

STAAR LABS offers a targeted solution using metabolic science, not caffeine or guesswork.

✅ 1. ULTRABRN

Our high-performance methylation and fat-oxidation formula includes:

B12 (methylcobalamin)
Inositol, choline, and methionine (lipotropics)
L-carnitine for fat transport
Thiamine, niacinamide, B6, folate, and vitamin C

Why it works: ULTRABRN replenishes depleted co-factors and restores mitochondrial function—helping your body generate energy more efficiently from both fat and carbs.

💡 Most GLP-1 patients report improved mood, energy, and focus within 3–5 days.

✅ 2. SLM+

While known for metabolic enhancement, SLM+ also:

Improves insulin sensitivity → better nutrient delivery
Reduces inflammation → less fatigue and better recovery
Stabilizes blood sugar → fewer crashes and dips

🧠 Many patients on GLP-1s don’t realize their fatigue is metabolic—not mental. SLM+ helps fix that from the inside out.

✅ 3. RCVRY+ (L-Glutamine)

This critical amino acid:

Fuels the gut lining and immune system
Supports glycogen replenishment post-fatigue
Aids mental clarity and physical recovery

🔁 When used daily with ULTRABRN and SLM+, RCVRY+ helps restore energy faster, especially after physical exertion or under stress.

📊 Who Should Use These?

✅ If you feel tired, foggy, or unmotivated on GLP-1s

✅ If you’re struggling to stay active or recover after workouts

✅ If you feel “flat” even when the weight is coming off

✅ If you’ve reduced calories dramatically

🔁 Suggested Stack: The GLP-1 Energy Rescue Protocol

ULTRABRN – 1-2 tablets daily
SLM+ – 1–2 capsules daily with meals
RCVRY+ – 1 scoop post-workout and before bed

⏳ Most users feel measurable improvement in 5–7 days

💬 The Bottom Line

GLP-1s change how your body eats, digests, and moves—but that doesn’t mean you have to settle for low energy.

ULTRABRN, SLM+, and RCVRY+ were built to help you feel human again—strong, clear, and energized.

Because weight loss shouldn’t come at the cost of your vitality.
