Listen "Weight Loss Drugs - Healthy or Dangerous?"
Episode Synopsis
Ozempic, Wegovy - both are weight loss drugs who's active ingredient is semiglutide.Fast weight loss has always been a bad idea and these drugs continue to prove the point.Weight rebound is common, not to mention the risk of kidney failure, pancreatitis and gall bladder issues.A recent study (remember these drugs are fairly new) showed that once people stopped the drug their rebound weight loss for 2/3 of what they had lost in the first year. Likely, as they are followed longer, the typical weight gain of more than they lost will be seen; we'll see as further studies occur.It "sounds" great to lose weight fast, but the side effects are a very bad idea.For appointments, call the front desk at 727-335-0400RootCauseMedicalClinics.com
