<p>Friends,</p><p>I recently sat down with <strong>Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe, CEO of Pendulum Therapeutics</strong>, for a discussion about probiotics, metabolism, and a potential natural alternative to GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic. Here's why I'm excited to share this with you...</p><p>The Backstory</p><p>A month ago, I ran into a friend who had slimmed down and was looking fit. These days, I’ve had a good dozen or so friends lose weight with GLP-1 drugs, so I was surprised when she told me it wasn’t Ozempic but Pendulum's new GLP-1 probiotic. Her chocolate cravings (her usual downfall) had changed entirely. Instead of demolishing a whole bar, she could have one bite and walk away satisfied.</p><p>I've known Pendulum for years (we invested at True), and I've personally used their glucose control product with great success. However, I had lost touch with Colleen and didn’t realize they had a new GLP-1 product — so I asked her to come on the podcast and discuss it.</p><p><strong>Note:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="https://peterattiamd.com/colleencutcliffe/">Peter Attia did a much longer and more thorough deep-dive with Colleen, found here</a></p><p>What Makes This Different?</p><p>In my interview with Colleen, she explained how their probiotic actually helps your body produce its own GLP-1 hormone naturally. The science is fascinating – they've identified specific strains of bacteria that, when delivered to your gut's distal colon, help stimulate natural GLP-1 production. No shots, no prescription.</p><p>The results are pretty impressive; 91% of users reported reduced food cravings after six weeks*, and the higher the initial cravings, the more significant the improvement.</p><p>Why This Matters</p><p>Over the last year+, I've watched friends scramble to find GLP-1 prescriptions, hitting up sketchy compounding pharmacies, or paying astronomical prices when their insurance won't cover them. It's wild out there.But obesity isn't just about weight – it's tied to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and even cognitive decline (some scientists are calling Alzheimer's "Type 3 diabetes"). We need better solutions that are both accessible and backed by science.</p><p>Join Our Mini-Trial</p><p>Here's the exciting part: I’ve worked with Pendulum to create a special trial program exclusively for this newsletter community. </p><p>As always, full disclosure: True Ventures, where I work, is an investor in Pendulum. That said, I receive zero compensation for this trial; this is not a paid ad in any capacity. Here's why I'm excited to do this:</p><p>* I use their products myself (they’ve really helped my gut)</p><p>* Friends are now experiencing positive results</p><p>* I love the idea of an affordable natural solution</p><p><strong>My most valuable asset is your trust.</strong> That's why I worked with Colleen to offer a 100-day money-back guarantee (they avoid this due to potential abuse/fraud). If you try it and come back saying, "Kevin, this did nothing for me," email Pendulum, and you'll get a refund. Simple as that.</p><p>Here's what you'll get in the trial</p><p>* Food Cravings Inventory diagnostic test at 0, 45, and 90 days to track your progress</p><p>* Direct access to microbiome specialists (bypassing regular customer service)</p><p>* 20% discount on your next order if you see positive results</p><p>* Contribute to real-world research data</p><p>* 100-day money-back guarantee</p><p>How to Join</p><p>Quick heads up on how this works: <strong>You'll need to purchase a 90-day supply upfront, but using my link unlocks the full money-back guarantee if it doesn't work for you</strong> – this is something not available anywhere else on their site. <a target="_blank" href="https://pendulumlife.com/products/glp-1-probiotic-kevin-rose-partnership"><strong>Click here to get started.</strong></a><strong> </strong>(you must use this link)</p><p>What's Next?</p><p>We'll be collecting data throughout the trial and sharing the results with participants. Stay tuned for updates on how the community is progressing.</p><p>Exciting stuff ahead! As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences if you decide to participate.</p><p>Until next time, be well,</p><p>*based on a consumer survey of 274 people</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
