Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) is an important metabolic regulator involved in mitochondrial function and fatty acid metabolism (McAloon et al., 2024)

Easy swaps for common meals : Instead of raw broccoli or cauliflower Choose cooked carrots, zucchini, spinach, green beans, or cucumber Instead of onions/garlic Use garlic-infused oil (flavor without the FODMAPs) or chives/scallions (green parts only) Instead of apples or pears Opt for strawberries, blueberries, oranges, pineapple (in moderation), or bananas (ripe, not overripe) Instead of beans/lentils Use small portions of canned lentils (rinsed) or stick to proteins like eggs, chicken, fish, beef, or tofu Instead of wheat bread/pasta Try rice, oats, quinoa, or low-FODMAP gluten-free options Instead of dairy milk Lactose-free milk, almond milk, or oat milk (check labels for additives) Additional tips to reduce bloating : Eat smaller, more frequent meals Chew slowly and avoid drinking through straws Skip carbonated drinks and gum Cook vegetables thoroughly instead of eating them raw Stay hydrated with plain water Gradually increase soluble fiber (oats, psyllium) if constipation is also an issue but go slow to avoid worsening gas Bottom Line Bloating on GLP-1 medications is common but often manageable by reducing high-FODMAP foods
