Kris Jenner isn't a fan of Ozempic—Bible. In fact, while the Kardashian matriarch recently admitted to having tried a GLP-1 weight loss medication in the past, it wasn't a good fit for her. "I tried it," Kris said on the May 5 episode of the SheMD podcast. "We tried it once when no one knew what it was, and it made me really sick."
Subsequently, she reached out to Dr. Thais Aliabadi, aka Dr. A, one of the SheMD hosts and her personal physician. "I called her up one day," the 70-year-old recalled, "and I said, 'I can't work anymore. I'm so sick. I can't even stand—I'm nauseous.' And so she said, 'Okay, okay, let's try something else.'"
So, she and Dr. Aliabadi "dialed around and looked at different options" before landing on a combination of unspecified peptide injections—different from Ozempic and other GLP-1 peptide injections—and supplements. "And that was a game changer," the momager said. "That actually bought me an extra couple of hours at night. Because I get up so early, I tend to want to collapse as soon as I have my last email or my last call or see my kids and have dinner—and I'm done."
Instead, after implementing supplements, "I felt like I had more energy. And of course, it's good for hair, nails, skin, and all that stuff."
For Kris—mom to Kourtney Kardashian, 47, Kim Kardashian, 45, Khloe Kardashian, 41, Rob Kardashian, 39, Kendall Jenner, 20, and Kylie Jenner, 28—maintaining a close eye on her hormone levels has also proved to be paramount. "I get my blood drawn every three months," she explained, "just to keep my hormones balanced. Because I realized after I was 45 that it was so important for your physical female health—and male health, by the way. I encourage my son to check his hormones to see what's happening."
She added, "But it was really a game changer for me, because when you look at your thyroid, you look at your hormone health—you look at what your body needs."
