Constipation is the silent enemy

Peptides slow gastric emptying, that is part of how they work. But it also means your gut moves at half speed, and constipation becomes extremely common. The biggest mistake people make is waiting until they are already backed up.

Start supporting your gut from day one with:

• Happy Bum Co ConstaClear, gentle and effective constipation support
• Happy Bum Co Daily Fibre, psyllium-based super fibre to keep things moving
• Plenty of water and minerals
• Gentle movement

Psyllium husk and magnesium oxide are well-loved, gut-supporting ingredients. Your gut does not need to struggle, just help it out.

02

Hydration is everything

Peptides blunt your thirst cue, which means you can go hours without drinking and not even notice. But your body still needs water and minerals to function. Without proper hydration you will experience:

• Fatigue
• Brain fog
• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Sluggish digestion
• Constipation

Plain water is not enough, your cells need minerals to actually absorb it. This is why Happy Hydrate is ideal during a weight loss journey. A pure coconut water powder that replenishes minerals, supports energy and helps prevent dehydration-related fatigue.

Buy a 2L bottle, keep it with you and finish it every day. Pair your water with Happy Hydrate to keep your brain and body switched on.

03

Protein and wholefood nutrition matter

When your appetite is low, every bite matters, and protein is the one macronutrient your body cannot afford to miss. If you do not hit your daily protein target, your body will pull from your muscle stores instead.

That is how people end up with the dreaded "Ozempic face", hair thinning and a softer, weaker body composition. It is not the peptide, it is the muscle loss. But protein alone is not enough. Your body also needs wholefoods, colourful fruits and veggies, organic options where possible, and nutrient-dense meals to keep your metabolism humming and your energy stable.

This is where Happy Bum Co Gut Food becomes a powerful daily support. It delivers:

• Organic plant protein
• Wholefood fruit and veggie powders
• Prebiotic fibre
• Probiotics for gut balance

It is the easiest way to nourish your gut, protect your muscle and hit your protein goals even when your appetite is tiny. Build your meals around lean protein and wholefoods first, then add healthy fats and smart carbs. Do not just eat less, eat better.
