This shyt gonna end up like Oxy. Good for you if it's helping but this is clearly a commercial.

And we know they're making/working on FDA approved compounds to block the drug's effects.

But I'll take off my tin foil hat. That's a good thing if there's something out there that can help people struggling with alcohol abuse.

While also increasing the risk of thyroid cancer; the mechanism it uses involves the thyroid among other things.

Yeah I bet there is a lot of side effects still being discovered. There are definitely better ways to lose weight, but this America and people don't like to put in the work to get healthy the right way. I know a lot of fat people at work who are on it. It's great that they are down weight, but none of them look any healthier after using it.

I'd be worried about the long-term effects of Ozempic. There are a lot of doctors saying it'll cause loss of muscle mass, which if they used it for years and years would cause people to become frail before their time.

Guess the only way to know for sure is wait a decade and see if these Ozempic users start looking or moving older than they are :yeshrug:

The hard part with all of this is the american mindset and linfestyle and how Ozempic fits into it.

For the most part - Ozempic is pretty safe to use for anyone that is living a balanced lifestyle. The problem is that most people find Ozempic appealing for the opposite reason, they haven't been having a balanced lifestyle and are looking for something to assist them.

What ends up happening is people begin taking ozempic, not really changing their lifestyle, and then it's very dangerous.

Let's say you weren't consuming enough protein, or working out and not that you are on it, just eat less of whatever you normally do. You are going to lose weight, but a lot of that weight will be muscle mass. The moment you stop taking it, the loss in muscle severely reduces your metabolism and now you will rebound most of it in 6 months.
