Why are you saying ozempec? It's ozempic.
My g.p.'s assistent had it prescribed for me, she probably could get a bonus for it😠 I was told she and the g.p. thought a needed an antagonist and this was it, absolutely! I checked the internet for the list with side effects and was absolutely shocked! I called the doctor's office to cancel the prescription but got stonewalled, Iwas told everybody was busy and I could not be put through to the g.p. or this assistant. I then called the pharmacy and canceled it there. This medicine is very dangerous and for me, 75 kilo's and 1m78, totally useless.Better are daily walks with the family dog, riding a bike for the groceries and working out on a hometrainer in the living room while watching t.v.,i.o.w. doing everything but stuffing your face.
Like your parents use to say, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
my parents told me to research and study and make an educated decision...but yeah to each their own, how did the vax work out for you?
@@txbrn512 it worked out great because I never got it thank god, I made my own educated decision! How about you, whether you did or didn’t I hope your doing well.
Bullshit.
People don't realize that if they do intermittent fasting everyday, eat clean food (as little sugar, additives, pesticides, modifiers, vegetable oils etc as possible), and combine that with a moderately active lifestyle, they will lose fat. Because the fat gained happens from a combination of eating bad foods and not moving much. It is not fatty food that makes you fat, it is rathe bad foods that do. Natural fats, protein and carbs are good for and meant for the body. I have been eating real butter, animal fat and cream etc for years now and my blood work shows perfect levels. I have also slowly lost fat over the months and gained muscle. And that is without making my meal size smaller. I do also get to enjoy a glass of wine every once in a while, and natural homemade desserts.
I once tried to eat sugar again after I quit for weeks, and my stomach had a severe reaction, which I interpret as a normal reaction to poison.
Changing lifestyle is the way to go. NOT ozempic. We are living in a quick fix society, and it never bears fruit. The only solution to a global weight loss, is will power, making organic foods affordable, and eliminating toxins from our food. Since this will not happen, because of how food companies and big farma will lose customers from it, each individual has to take their own bodily health into their own hands.
Absolutely 100% truthful & thorough statement. Thankyou. -NW Ohio
@@Davido50 You're welcome :)
my heart doctor suggested to take ozempic. i was super furious. like he doesnt know i have thyroid issues and its literally black box warning on it
I completely agree with you! im overweight, metabolism slowed down too much. im starting keto diet and IF on monday. Can hardly wait!!! Im looking forward to it!
morning exercise, swimming, and vibrational plate. instead of this jab
@@anikomiles4260 sounds great! hang in there, give it a go! And if you have a cheat day or two, dont beat yourself up over it. Just get back in the groove as if nothing happened!
If something sounds too good, the are usually horrible consequenses…..
Kind of like the covid “vaccine”.

Worst decision I ever made was to take this drug. The change in my physical appearance and the digestive issues I am still experiencing two months after stopping the drug are scary.
Looks like the Doc is dabbling on it …he looks so gaunt, hollow and aged a ton .
What's going on with your physical appearance?
@@onniesimza797 The Ozempic face, which I did not have when I was taking Victoza and I actually lost more weight, faster on Victoza.
The digestive issues were awful as well and I still don’t feel quite right.
@@onniesimza797I have several friends that have used it. Now I can tell somebody that's on it a mile away because their face looks like it's melting off of their skull. And they get a very odd looking body shape. All of them look absolutely horrible. They aged 10 years in a matter of months. They look like they have no muscle left on their bodies and they look extremely unhealthy. After seeing the way that these people look I would never use it. I would rather be fat than look like they do.
@@equatorialjourney4478 💯
I have a good friend who was on it for a year. She was suicidal and depressed every day while on it. She lost 80 lbs and her muscles were gone. She still had fat roles on her stomach and looked skinny fat. She ate junk food and doughnuts the entire time she was on it. One year later, she's gained 20 lbs back. Her diet is exactly the same. I don't understand why people do this to themselves.
Anything that messes with the gut can mess with the brain and nervous system
Maybe the diet choices were due to the depression. If you were to replace the junk food with red meat, chicken, fish then it would be pretty effective. Hope your friend is doing better tho, I truly do, depression is no joke.
I think it really depends on the person and the situation. I'm looking to lose about 50 lbs. I was an athlete through my childhood, high school, and some of college. Used to eating whatever I want and either not gain any weight or sometime even lose weight when in season. As I got older and more sedentary, the weight slowly started to pile on. Over the last few years though, while my weight has fluctuated about 10 lbs or so, it hasn't gone up past a certain point.
So for me, I'm considering it as a short-term assist to initially lower my weight. Will I gain some of it back after I stop? Probably. But I think I will still be able to keep myself weighing considerably less, as I have been able to keep myself at a relatively consistent weight now -- it's losing larger amounts of weight over a long period of time that has been the struggle.
As with any drug though, it's not a miracle, and there are always side effects and consequences to consider, so I don't take considering it lightly.
Go carnivore - google it.
@@user-hi4vw9mu5oThe ironic thing about depression is that eating a mostly clean diet and regular exercise can do a lot to mitigate those feelings. Also, constructive hobbies and volunteering to help people can really shift your mood and general anxiety.
Been on ozempic since 2021 and my wife to. She lost 100lbs, I went from 223 to 160lbs. We go to gym and eat high protein. No side effects at all. Only thing was a headache when first starting and sulfur burps. Not a single problem after like 1 month taking it.
Our blood results have been extremely positive, A1C below 5.0.
Never was depressed and we are both loving life.
Now came off ozempic and maintained weight no problem.
Paid plant
Can I ask how long it took to have an effect from the first injection of 0.25? How long did it take until your appetite was suppressed?
Shill
Not natty
@@aspenrowan377do you think people that are willing to take a drug to effect their weight care about someone saying they aren’t ‘natty’? So what?
My husband was on it for diabetic reason. The side effects were so bad even after stopping it for months. Yes he lost some weight but he felt do dizzy sick stomach issues etc. He looks like Fred Flintstone dr put him on something else wasnt great but was better than ozempic now he still looks like a thinner version of Fred Flintstone. Dont get on this drug. Not worth it....cut out snacking all day, soda, ice cream, drink more water and try moving around more. Thats what i started doing a few weeks ago. Dont buy any bad food so you are not tempted to cheat when you're home
I never thought it was a good idea for non-diabetics to take this medicine. I'm glad that someone is finally telling the truth!
This dude is no better than Dr Oz or Dr Phil.
@@targetedplantsguy9481I’m not sure about this but I’m getting a bit of that vibe. Dr Phil and Dr Oz definitely turned out to be whacks
You shouldn't take drugs if you're not obese.. this for people who are severely overweight so much that the reward is worth the risks..
It may help one eat less but we need to eat right
Undoubtedly
I’m taking it and eating only whole foods. I’m on the lowest dose and I can barely eat 😂
@@itsaaronlolz I made the same experience. I stayed on the lowest level to lose all my excess weight. Interesting fact that with the time I needed to up the dosage to stay on that weight but I have been able to go up and down the dosage depending on the current „form“.
@@Visitkarte I was taking saxenda first but it’s expensive. I’m taking ozempic rn and it makes me so sleepy. 😭
@@itsaaronlolz Seriously? Never heard of that side effect. So sorry, thank you for sharing the experience. I never stop learning. Does lowering the dose help matters?
Social media in this case has pushed the use of this drug as if there was no consequences. Good to see respected Dr's like, including this podcast bring awareness.
Exactly. Nature is savage, everything has its price
Everyone who used thinking it would be like magic is a complete moron who likes to lie to themselves, which is basically why they're fat in the first place. We all know somebody who says they've tried everything to no avail, but is always stuffing themselves with junk food, always talking about food and we all know they tried everything except going into a diet for more then a month straight.
The internet came along and we stopped moving.
In my case covid and it's effect on my mental health left to massive weight gain in 2 years
Facts
Agreed. Gained 40 lbs during covid and the aftermath. Cant shed a lb, without rebounding a few months later
WELL SAID!!!!!!!! That’s it. 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑🌷👸🌷
Nah, the internet has been around since the 80s for most people. I am born in 85 and grew up with it. Everyone was active until the smartphones came around. I was active too, and I was a professional gamer for a whole decade! I chose to never have a smartphone when they came out... I am psychic, so I was warned about these phones 10 years before they came out. I also did my research that confirmed the message that I got. Still have my oldie GSM phone and I love it. I' never wanted a smartphone, never had one, and both times people tried to give me one as a present, I told them to return it and go travel for those money or something, I don't need it. I don't want to join that matrix. I've watched everyone around me and the world get dumber and less in the now moment. I am fine living in the moment and not having my mind programmed by people who don't want the best for us. I have survived the zombie apocalypse, but most people around me don't know that they are zombies.
Dr. Hyman's approach to individualized functional medicine with an emphasis on diet and lifestyle is as good as you can get. Thank you both for the interview.
What do you mean by functional medicine?
He's a quack.
He’s an MD. Functional means he tries to get to root cause. How is that being a quack?
The quacks are doctors working for big pharma, which is most of them. Keeping you sick and medicated
How is it not quackery to keep giving ppl prescription after prescription and then another prescription for a side effect the first prescription caused? You need to wake up to what a quack doctor truly is. Wake up.
It’s true stupidity to call those addressing root cause “quacks” when traditional medicine has made everyone sicker. They are the quacks. I cannot believe the absolute stupidity of ppl. Brainwashed fool.
You don’t need to be a doctor to know how to eat healthy or have a healthy lifestyle. people really still think we’re living in pre-internet times where certain info was only available for certain professionals
And here I am having lost 60+ lbs (28 kg) naturally, being asked all the time if I’m on Ozempic 😒
Good for you be proud keep it up ❤
I bet literally no one has asked that.
Yeh when I lost weight I got asked if my Dr's gave me meds this was before ozempic so I can imagine how much you get asked this 🙈
Nice!
Same!
I tried it for couple of months but it slows down your digestive system so people with stomach issues should not take it. I ended up with gastritis and severe constipation.
I used it for couple of months myself and I also have severe constipation which took me 3 months to finally start going back to normal after bottles of Mylax, gallons of water, very painful going to the bathroom.
I’m a dispatcher. Word spread fast through the communications center that this drug worked. So far we’ve had 3 out of the 15 taking it people needing emergency gallbladder surgery.
Im a dispatcher as well and i haven't told a soul in communications that im on it lol
If that's true, that's so incredibly unsafe, it can't stay legal for much longer, right? It's like buying a car and having a 20pc chance it will randomly catch fire.
Gallbladder issues are tied to obesity. I think the obesity is the reason for that, not the ozempic.
@@Boyo-xe5fp none of these people are obese. Just too lazy to work out. Gallbladder issues are listed under the severe side effects of the medication.
Also just to clarify - they’re not even medically obese.
Why are so many dispatchers fat ?
This reminds me of the issues caused by smoking, in the context of the fast food industry being worried that drugs like Ozempic might cause them to lose money
Pppp
Thats why they're teaming up!
If you can sell things that make people sick and then sell them the cure for it.
Might sound conspiratorical but I dont think its far from the truth.
I lost 10 kilos on it. I couldn't get it for 6 months and I did not gain it back. You have to change you life style.
I started keto and IF the past 2 1/2 months and already down 17 lbs, down in body fat %, rarely hungry as I eat lots of fat and protein. Never felt better. No inflamation. No acid reflux. The benefits go on and on. Takes tons of commitment and no side effects like the ones possible on this drug
Bro keto is not a long term fix . The side effects are terrible too. But it’s great for short term
17lbs in 10 weeks is probably not sustainable
It’s awesome progress but you can’t eat that way long term
Carbs are good for you, never forget that ✌️
👍 and I can't help but think many people who have "tried everything" so neeeed a drug have not done keto and fasting
Oh. This is such a bullshit statement. No evidence.
Another BS ignorant statement. Learn some biochemistry
Australia. I am a type 2 diabetic, was put on this late last year. Quite often cannot fill my prescription as not enough available. Have travelled up to 2 hours away to get it filled and had to go through 100 questions to get it via the chemist. (Which was fine) the chemist refused to put it aside until we could drive to the chemist, so could well have turned up to find it no longer available . We will not do this (travel distances) to get this script filled again, the fuel cost is crap, so we can’t afford to do this sort of running around. We do not eat processed foods, haven’t done so for 20 plus years. Grow our own veg, eat little mea, try to balance our diet. My doc has been great, explained possible side effects, I have checks every month, found I wasn’t drinking enough water, so have bumped that up and found tests results improved massively. (I have only two cups of instant coffee a day, 1 cup of tea, rest of the time water). Every time I go to the toilet, I have a 200ml glass of water to ensure my kidney function is optimumised. Constipation is a problem, so I have all bran and prunes each mid morning, as brunch, occasionally I may have a cup of home made soup for mid arvo and then a proper meal of a night, small portion of protein and veg or salad. I have lost a huge amount of weight, over 40 kg, so now I have options open to me to have knee surgery done, which will allow me to walk more and hopefully pain free, then I hope I can drop the Ozempic, as I should be able to maintain the diet and exercise. My diabetes is well under control and if I can keep the weight from returning it should be good. Like every medication available, there are possible side effects, most people don’t read the information included with the meds, and don’t query with their doctor regularly about what meds they are taking and if any can be dropped or dose lessened. I think my doctor must cringe when he sees me at times, I write out questions, check what else I can be doing etc. I am never made to feel like a fool for my queries and I do appreciate that attitude. So for me so far, Ozempic is working. But I do detest all the hype it has been given as a weight loss drug, which unfortunately is making it very difficult for diabetics to be able to get regular supply, if you do not require this drug for its intended use, find other ways. No hate responses please, just expressing my experience with the drug.
My friend is using it and she's not diabetic and I brought that up to her.She acted like she didn't care wow
Great host and guest, thanks for this conversation!
I was obese my entire life, once I cut sugar and carbs I lost all that weight. People need to get in the balance of feasting and fasting, periods of plenty of food and time without any food at all. Keto and fasting saved my life, I never felt better, more focused and healthy than I have ever felt in my 30 odd years on earth.
Congrats! I wish you continued healing and good health!
i agree, same here. junk food and soul food all my life, I'm 36. switched everything up last year after a person fatter than me told me I was fat😂. got a fitbit, excercised everyday, ate different whole foods, omad fasting.. i lost 60+ in a year
I’ve done the same. I gave up sugar and carbs and do OMAD. Changed my life - no more reflux, migraines, restless leg syndrome, anxiety. I take no meds now
My mother struggled with weight for yrs and swore she felt best when she was on the Weight Watcher plan. She'd weigh her food on a small scale and stick to the schedule plan. You actually eat quite a lot on Weight Watchers and it's healthier because the weight loss is gradual.
"We have a massive obesity problem & we don't have any good solutions" is a horrific perspective on obesity.
Horrifying and pathetic.
What's really sad is that he says there's a lot of ways to achieve the same effect of the drug naturally but then he barely describes them and glosses right over it so that nobody learns how to actually lose weight. Imagine if the average person learned that there are foods that you can eat that make you feel more full as opposed to the crap that they are eating.
Also not true . the majority who have "tried everything" have not done fasting and a true ketogenic diet
@@calebfoster7148 Yup.. Reminds me of how "ultra processed food" isn't ever defined. It is so easy to "define," yet the complex we live in glosses over defining it. . .
Lol, and if they do define it, it is usually dishonest.
I wanted ozempic originally when I was diagnosed with type 2 but my physician being more cautious and not jumping the gun said I should try to get into control with diet, exercise and more proven drugs. It's going pretty well my almost debilitating arthritis is 90% better and I can actually walk for exercise again. I have to really watch my carbohydrates like a hawk however and I didn't really realize how carbohydrate heavy American food was until I had to actually keep track of it...you can't just look for 0 sugar and forget the carbohydrates hiding in your food.
Thank you very informative alot to know about this drug thank u ill be looking out for your next video
Water fasting is free
water isn't free
Just eat less. That not free, it saves you money.
People always look for a quick fix. Sadly.
Fasting isn't a realistic solution. If it was, everyone would be doing it.
@@user-kr2ty9vk5nwhat's unrealistic about it?
That's for speaking the truth.
50yr old -75lbs on Mounjaro. It’s a natural peptide. Cut A1-C in half and Triglycerides by 2/3rd. Must weight train and high protein
I took it for 2 months and lost 35 lbs. Been off for 5 months and dropped 5 lbs monitoring my diet and going to the gym. People who aren’t diabetic don’t need this drug for the long term. I’m going to resume it in June to drop another 25 lbs.
We don't need it at all. Just stop filling the hole under your nose all day every day, have a good solid breakfast with cheese and ham for instance, a hot meal for lunch and a light meal with bread and cheese and meat and a cup of tea for dinner. Freeze the bread over night first then toast it. It halves your Sugar level due to doubling the conversion time for your carb's. And use full corn bread, not white!
Sharon and Kelly Osborne are using it, i hope they leave it alone because its taking its toll on them.
Now the food company is hiring people to say how bad those drugs are.
💯
Nope. What this doctor is saying can be proven. The comments section are also proof. I personally know people who have been on this drug and yes they lost weight, but the side effects were on par with what he’s saying and the people in the comments. Did you not hear what he said about food companies not liking the drug because of the success of the drug and how it’s hitting their pockets, or did you skip that part?
Seek help fam
Can't afford a gastric bypass.
Then again I can't even afford food sometimes.
I appreciate the brutal honesty. I didn’t know half those side effects.
I have been off of Wegovy for 4 months and have maintained the 40 pounds I lost. Obviously I have kept my lifestyle changes, but I don't think what Dr. Hyman is saying here about the weight always coming back is really backed by the statistics. The most recent study I saw said about 25% of patients gain back ALL of their weight, 25% gain back some, 10% continue weight loss and the rest maintain. So that is 75% of people who lose weight. on this and about 50% keep it off. Further, I like Dr. Hyman on a lot of things, but, in the end, he is selling something. And these drugs mean he will sell less, it is pretty simple.
Extremely clear! Thank you Dr Hyman.
I am a type 2 diabetic. I am on Mounjaro and have been on Ozembic. I was already skinny when I started taking these medications. I have lost more weight, and it does suppress my appetite, which is great for controlling your sugar levels. But, you do have to work on eating when you're not hungry. I have struggled with energy levels and some minor digestive issues. I do still work 12 hour shifts a day at a rigorous manufacturing plant. It can be managed as long as you make the efforts to compensate for the side effects of these medications. So, like any medication, you need to make additional lifestyle changes to counteract the effects of drugs like Ozembic. These medications for diabetes type 2 are amazing, but I would not recommend them solely for weight loss.
$1500/month? The insanity of pharmaceutical companies and we Americans for putting up with it.
Sounds similar to the cost of the drug Vraylar…ridiculous. $1700 for 30 pills.
It's only $400 for a 6 week dose. Generics are around $300 for 6 weeks.
Putting up with it??? Just consider it moron tax for useless people who are incapable of managing their lives.
While in Canada and Mexico it is about $200 USD. Go figure.
126 usd / month in Denmark
The strange thing about what he said was that we don’t know about the long term effects . These meds have been used for years in diabetics. Why now is it potentially dangerous for people to use? I know people who have been on this med for many many years and it has done nothing more than help!
It's "dangerous" because it's being prescribed to people who the drug was not meant for.
Morbidly obese diabetics with multiple commodities are now struggling to get the drug because everyone and their mom who is slightly overweight (with no disease) is getting prescribed it. It wasn't meant for relatively healthy people with just poor self-control.
The point is : if you have a serious health problem like Diabetes- it will definitely help you - but if you are healthy you CANT just take any medicine- every medicine has side effects…. Why would a healthy person take a medicine…. and take the risk of getting worse with other symptoms…
Because people that don't have a GOP deficiency are using it now for quick weight loss. It will affect people that have a deficiency different than the people that don't.
Much like antipsychotics long term side effects have yet to be established. No one has taken this for years.
Not to mention the people doing the studies are getting paid by the pharmaceutical company.
Diet and exercise is obviously the best. Not only for weight, but mental health and muscle mass. Unfortunately, as time progresses and we have “quick” fixes without addressing the underlying issue and we are creating a culture shift where people don’t look at food as the problem. 😞
Your comment speaks to the bigger issue: people want the fast solution without making necessary changes to their self destructive behavior.
I've lost 25 lbs in a year by not eating fast food. I had made a few life changes but eliminating the drive thru was major.
What are the studies verifying these numbers? I can’t find them anywhere, even original interview. Did Dr Hyman provide a reference list?
When he talks about muscle loss . Is this directly from the drug or a result of consuming less calories. Any diet that drastically reduces calories will cause muscle loss . I know several people on the drug for weight loss and they definitely have a reduced appetite but make sure to atleast maintain the required calories and they say they maintain muscle as well as they would on a calorie restricted diet .
It’s like Fen/Phen all over again. I’ve experienced one of those “very rare” side effects.
isint the nauseous side effect literally from just not eating?
I think you don’t need to eat less just eat right. I eat a keto/carnivore diet and eat twice per day and I keep really trim even at 51. I eat lots of animal fats and raw dairy with a little fruit and green veg. I can’t understand how taking a drug that makes you feel sick, constipates you and could even kill you is given to fat people instead of helping them just to stop eating crap. Give them bacon and eggs for brunch and steak or chicken and rocket salad for dinner with pork rinds, some nuts and cheese for snacks and watch the pounds come off. Stop all carbs and processed food. It’s that easy 😊
I did keto for 6 years and had to stop because it completely messed up my hormones. I couldn't sleep at all unless I ate carbs. I was dedicated and going to eat keto the rest of my life unfortunately it's not a long-term sustainable diet just like being vegan isn't.
I eat the same way....
They will complain it’s too expensive to eat this way but are too lazy to actually compare the true costs. At the end of the day what is your health really worth..
Best comment ❤
Great to hear educated opinions on this weight loss craze and how it works.
I lost 20 lbs immediately but the problem was I stopped losing weight and it just stopped working. I didn't lose any muscle and it only cost me 200 dollars a month. Ive been off it for about 6 months and I'm not noticing anything negative?
I have diabetes I am on ozempic and metformin. I haven't experience any side effects being one year on it and my sugar levels are as non diabetic. I honestly don't know what to think. I also have asthma (which has decreased to almost to asthma attacks since I started ) I also have UCTD and again no pain and no symptoms... Maybe is the collagen and all the vitamins I take but so far I ve been good. I will consider this info and ask my doctor
Cost not an issue for type 2 diabetic seniors in Ontario -- it was around 6 bucks a month for me. I've recently stopped taking it, this time for good due to digestive issues. I did lose 70 lbs and have only regained a small amount so far but won't be going back on Ozempic.
A friend of mine used it for a year and lost over 100 lb She stopped taking it recently and almost gained all of the weight back in a few months.
@@GeorgeGlass298 She gained it back because drug treatment obviously does not teach good eating habits/portion control..
@@marigolds49 She said without the drug suppressing her hunger her hunger was worse than it was before. She was starving all the time but still having stomach issues.
Yeah except you just lose all your money to taxes to make the drugs cheaper lol
Go carnivore - look it up.
Finally someone jumping right into it. 🖤🖤🖤🖤
I would say its a net benefit since obesity creates a tornado of health issues that are more costly to someone’s health.
Could just go for a run
Water fasting is free.
ty
My wife is on this as she was pre-diabetic. She is now no longer pre-diabetic, lost weight, and has no negative side effects. Her A1C is nominal (135). I’m wondering what exactly what the negatives are with this drug?
fasting, I went from 350 to 180
Sure you did lol
I took Ozempic for over a year, and I am an Insulin dependant diabetic , for 26 years now. It lowered my A1C to the best its ever been, like 5.0 and sometimes 4.5. I went from a size 14 to a size 8. and I felt good. No more tiredness and weakness, I was able to do more, and mentally I was no longer depressed. Then the unthinkable happened, what no more Ozempic available, my insurance company told me. So it was on to a new drug similar to Ompezic and it worked just as well. And once again, I was told after a year No more of that either, it was on backorder for how long they didn't even know. Why, I said I didn't understand, because people are being prescribed this just to lose weight. So in my humble opinion these drugs should be for as they were first intended to be, Diabetics, People who have health issues because of their weight. Because the people who really need them, are having trouble even getting them at this point.
Would love to hear what Dr. Longo has to say about ozempic.
Dr.Hyman changed my view of medicine.I realized instead of writing for pills I talk about stopping eating junk food ,stop drinking soda,s.
I have already seen commercials on tv from law firms wanting to sue the drug companies because of side effects. It’s crazy that people want the easy way out and are willing to play Russian roulette with their health.
People need to find out why they over/under eat. This is usually down to mental/emotional reasons (comfort eating ect) it can take a while to get to the point where you don't emotional eat. It's a slow process as you have to face the emotions you have been blocking with food. It's not easy. But much better than take a shot that reduces your muscle mass by 50%!! That will cause you more problems than being overweight in the first place!!
Learn to love yourself, listen to your body... when you have had enough food to feel satisfied (not full) and ditch all the shitty food programmes you have grown up with. No more guilt trips, just loving yourself for who you are. And loving what and how much you nourish your body with. If you listen your body will tell you what you need to eat and when. Don't take the "cheats" way, you will only have to do it properly after all. ❤
There is nothing to find out. It's ultra processed foods. They are supernormal stimuli for the human nervous system - nobody binges on brokkoli (unless they're starving and then there's nothing wrong with it).
Overweight can be genetic, also. My body has always preferred me to be at a certain weight. I would get nonstop cravings, drooling, stomach growling when I was my ‘correct’ weight.
Unfortunately people don’t like hard work.
That applies to physical and mental hard work.
What you’re writing is totally correct, but it’s never happening for 90% of people who are overweight.
We were never meant to have highly palatable cheap and easy foods available to us. It is an artificial problem
@@joerudnik9290there is almost always zero chance it's genetics unless you have some kind of genetic disorder. It usually stems from habits engrained in a child while they are maturing. This can include preferences on food, emotional ties to food, and/or childhood trauma.
I graduated highschool at 320 pounds. When i was in my 20s i started eating right and went to the gym. Got to 180 and maintained for years. What is ozempec?
You lose muscle regardless or not if you use ozempic to lose weight. I would’ve liked to hear if he means you actually lose more muscle utilizing ozempic or not as a side effect
What a great doctor who educates instead of pushing drugs.
He pushes drugs alright…just not the Big Pharma ones. He always push his products tho.
My wife is on it, and it costs her ZERO . It's covered by our medical system up here in Canada. It's prescribed by her doctor to regulate her blood sugar because of her blood cancer (chronic disease), but it's not deadly unless it mutates into a deadly version
For many this is life changing, the blood work and over all stats for persons health and for that alone it is a HUGE benefit. For a women in menopause, who eats well but has had a struggle loosing weight, this has been amazing with little to no side effects. Many won't gain back of they maintain healthy eating and exercise. Some just need this as a jump start. My cost is 300 a month for straight semiglutide. You don't have to spend 1700 a month and these costs will come down as soon as the newness of this breaks and when people figure out you don't have to get the brands name to get the same exact medicine. All of my doctors said it would be an excellent way to get my system jumpstarted. I have increased my protein intake and have added weight lifting and for long term my food is amazing and delicious... if you need get a nutritionist. You have to eat on this medication to keep your organs and body functioning... what about the side effects of having all of the weight. Everything has to be measured when making this decision. I think heart attack for being over weight is a bad side effect of obesity too.
I lost 55 lbs in 6 months, the last 8 weeks I’ve had terrible pain in my abdomen once or twice a week ,having diverticulitis I thought I was having issues w that bc of the ozempic .seems like a pancreatic attack , worse pain I’ve ever had in my stomach.I’ve since quit taking ozempic . I have not been sick since .
Was your pain in your lower abdomen? Kinda at your large colon? Or higher up below your ribs?
GLP-1 inhibitors have been around for three decades in various forms, so long term studies on them have already been done and shown to be safe. Also, the drug makes you sick when you make bad food choices, so it is teaching you to eat better long term. Strength training is definitely a recommended that is being emphasized by any decent provider, so i think it really isn't as scary as it is being made out to be.
My autoimmune condition is the same. It makes me suffer when I don't eat perfectly. 😅
They haven't been studied on people that have healthy bodies and just want to drop a few pounds fast. They've been studied on people with type 2 diabetes or obese people that need to lose weight. People that have GOP deficiencies. Healthy people that don't have a deficiency have much different results and health complications than people that do. We don't know what the outcome will be after all of these people that don't need to lose massive amounts of weight are using it to drop 10 20 30 lb.
The thing is, there is no trial that combines high protein diet and ozempic and strength training.
I gave up soda and went on Nutrisystem. I lost 35 pounds.
Wouldn't it be healthier and more efficient to work 1 less day in a 4 day work week?
People worked a lot more in the past and almost no one was obese.
Only work one day a week
What does this have to do with the subject of this video??
Start using minimal amount. Only $3k for 2 people for 4-5 mos- no insurance. Get moving! Massage bowels, exercise, eat lots of protein & drink lots of water!! Worth it!
Please interview Sarah Pugh on the show , she is a quantum biologist and research in cholesterol and carnivore diet! She has amazing information!!!
Losing muscle is a side effect of weight loss, not specifically Ozempic.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Right on.
Here in Australia it's about 350 AUD a month. But there is no stock for non diabetics left.
Im on semaglutide 2 weeks now I was doing keto for 2 months before starting it Im still doing keto and i haven't felt any side affects for the most part granted im only on .25 mg
As a diabetic on Ozempic. Reduces motivation, sex drive. Reduces pleasure from alcohol, food etc.
Reduced motivation and sex drive is also a side effect of quick and substantial weight loss. Ask any bodybuilder who's at the end of prep.

I was taking victoza which the chemist said is basically the same and GLP-1, I believe if I kept taking it I'd be dead it caused me to have unbearable headaches and drowsiness and I had to take laxatives to go to the toilet because it caused me to be backed up for 6 days.
Just say no. You are not a brainless animal. Taking drugs is not fixing the problem.
I have genetically low blood sugar and I started to take a similar drug for weight loss but my problem was having very low blood sugar in the gym. Apparently exercise can drop blood sugar by 70%
See a doctor. Need to be able to check it, and should probably have something sweet as you workout.
I just started Mounjaro this week. Even on the lowest dosage to start with the appetite suppression is quite remarkable.
If you ever want healthy appetite suppression reduce your carbs as low as you can get them and enjoy all the bacon, pastured eggs, butter, coconut oil, grass fed beef, pasture raised chicken, and low carb vegetables you want. You will cure your diabetes in the meantime. Watch "Beat Diabetes!" for more help.
It’s amazing! I love it and haven’t had side effects.
Brian Grazer makes some good points.
I understand the attraction of a helper to loose weight but as someone whose had to inject myself with methotrexate and 9 other biologic medications since i was 10 years old. It scares me people would do this if they didnt "have" to. It scares me whats happening to my body but ive got no choice. Ive dealt with weight gain and loss yes its fucking hard but i know people taking it who really havent tried anything else. Please try the healthy way. My friends wife has just been hospitalised taking this.
I was tempted and the PA I saw literally sat there and explained it and sold it. Hardly asked me anything. Not sure if she did an exam at all. I would have paid $150-200/month depending on the brand. It is made at a compounding pharmacy in my town. So many people I know are on it. I didn’t feel good about it especially since it slows digestion which to me means you’re more toxic. Gotta find my own way to release weight.
The compounded versions are dangerous. Don’t use them
There is a documentary about black market ozempic.
I've been doing Wegovy for 6 months, lost 25kgs and my metabolism is stronger than ever, I can still eat and lose weight. It's great, I don't plan on stopping any time soon. Here in the UK costs around £200 so for me it's money well spent
How do you know if your metabolism is "stronger than ever" if you are taking a drug that manipulates it? Are you off it?
@@00teatime Because I go on holiday, eat normally, drink and still I don't get weight, before on holiday I would gain 4kgs doing exactly the same
@@CrappyProducts have you ever tried to no eat so much of holiday or exercise during holiday?
I'm trying to understand the phenomenon.
@@00teatime I can only speak for what is happening. Before I would go on holiday and return with another 4kgs gained, now I go eat a bit less that's for sure but no weight gained at all, in fact I lost weight when I returned from my holiday. I can only justify that with an increase in metabolism especially since I have drank beer every days for 3 weeks on my holiday
Where do you get yours from ? I'm in the UK too 😊 xx
I'm curious as to what the long term effects will be. So far, every weight loss drug or surgery has long term effects.
My son was prescribed Zepbound. He has been taking it for 5 months. Now he is told Lilly can't keep up with the orders for Zepbound and he will have to switch to another drug that is more available. Big Pharm!
I mean, I guess insurance companies weigh the cost of paying for Ozempic now, vs paying for heart attack, diabetes and more later.
Insurance wants to pay higher costs for care, they are publicly traded companies and their revenue model is your premium dollars which is based on cost of care. No company wants to lose revenue year over year, health insurance companies are no different. This is the fallacy in the U.S. that people think health insurance companies are trying to lower costs, its the inverse.
@Nate-xk2qf I don't think you quite understood what I mean. Ozempic does cost less than having to pay for conditions that will only multiply and compound that result from chronic obesity. Do you have any idea how much a coronary bypass surgery costs? Years of diabetes supplies? Kidney transplant? Liver failure costs? One person could need all of that and more. Ozempic and other medications like it are a cost savings measure. If what you're assuming is true, they wouldn't be paying for weightloss drugs because it will cost more in the long run if they don't. I'm a medical biller and coder. You haven't got a clue about what you're talking about.
How much you qre pqying for it ?
I lost 40 bounds. All craping out diarrhea. The whole time I took it I had diarrhea. I couldn’t handle it no more started getting cramps now my doctor put me on something else in which I can’t say but it’s legal in fear of retribution from you know who. I took it for my h1c. It worked on that. The new stuff I’m on works. I have gained back 10 psd. I lost muscle mass in my arms. I tire out guck now. I’m trying to get better. Side affects are bad. So, here I go around the track again 😊ps the meds I take now are just 200.00 dollars. Not $1.100.00. The cost to make it Ozempic that is I’m sure it doesn’t cost $1000 more like $50-$100.
I just started my pen yesterday on may 2 nd i havent gotten any side effects yet im actually ok for now i will be monitoring my body until the next 4 wks
Listening to the side effects it inspires me to hit a diet and gym hard!
People having bad side effects are too high dosage!!! take lowest effective dose..it works to suppress appetite, you lose weight gradually and you feel better..if your diabetic..it’s a blessing to control blood sugar. 👍🏽 again, take low dosages!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Why are so many people trying to discourage the use of GLP-1s? The vast majority of people have great results.
This has to be a joke. I’ve lost 100 in 10 months by taking a weekly injection of semaglutide. I already had been eating well and excersizing daily.. before the semaglutide I spent a year going to gym five days a week. The harder I worked out, the hungrier I was that day. I felt helpless. After a year, I ditched my membership and dedicated my exercises to half indoor half outdoor. Then I found out about semaglutide.. started losing weight the first week. My appetite reduced.. Not just my appetite and eating less , but also cannabis and nicotine.
I’m 6’5. I was at my highest weight ever when I began the weekly treatment at 310 pounds. I weighed in today at 211. Went from a 42 waist to a 36. The only thing I did for my diet was avoid as much processed food as possible, and watched my sugar intake. I did little things like get the low sugar, low-carb vanilla ice cream instead of the Ben & Jerry’s. Other than that, the white just fell off of me and I still have no clue how. my average white throughout my life has been 250. When I was 16 and I was starving myself I got down to 230. Before the medication I had not been below 250 since at least my college days. I’m 32 now.
This medication gave me my life back. Without the extra weight, I can do push-ups properly. I used to be somebody that refused to look at themselves naked in the mirror. Now it’s hard to get me to keep on a shirt. It’s really funny hearing you talk about all of this in a fearful manner. I believe that most of the horror stories that have been told so far are just getting paid to say so (probably by someone that’s been skinny their entire life) it’s been a lifelong battle. I remember going to “kid fit camp” during my summers in middle school. I only hit 230 when I was 16 because my doctor gave me medication for ADHD that made my appetite disappear, and I took advantage of it. Which obviously eventually sent me into a spiral. The second I stop eating in a calorie deficit manner I would blow up like a balloon overnight.
Moral of the story don’t let any skinny person gaslight you into not trying it.
In Australia it's only $asd 380 5 pens. You don't have to take it forever, but you have to learn not to binge again
I feel so bad for people who are affected by this. Short term benefits just aren’t worth long- term health effects. I just don’t trust drugs. The more I hear about medications, the more focused I am on staying as fit and healthy as I can. And, yes, that’s a struggle!
Extremely sleepy and former nurse here with balanced diet and exercise.. after three times straight of getting sleepy I'm kind of hesitant about taking it now... Anyone else experience this?
It absolutely does not cost that much!
Really? My Ozempic is $2,600.00 for 3 pens.
@@hometowngirl8062sure but that is the US and comes down to hate game not the player.
It's 130 per month in central europe
It does its like 1.5k a month here in the US
It does. As with many drugs, the US is often much more expensive compared to other countries
Exactly. It's only 200 dollars for 4 injections a month at my Dr
I was on for less than 2 weeks. Made me very sick. I have Gerd and suffer with gastritis couple times a year. I made me more depressed also. Not a good medication for me.
Best thing you can do is eat right. I'm a diabetic and I was watching my diet before I started this drug. I didn't know anything about the weight loss.
I had a allergic reaction, after the 4 th dose of ozempic, 0,25mg , 2 days later I developed this redness to my skin from my face down to my knees , we aren't sure if it was the ozempic , but it was the only change in what medications and foods etc, so I had to stop taking it but still don't know if that was the cause , but since it is a classic allergic reaction to medications , I stopped it
im surprised that not more about how this stuff effects the thyroid isnt being talked about. I was taking it 5 years ago before my heart attack, but my thyroid numbers went off the charts, and lumps not felt , but seen on the scan tech, were growing and so i stopped taking it, the 40 pounds went back on plus some, but the lumps went down as well.
Yes that is a very serious side effect . People do not what to hear about the Very serious side effects. Yes those side effects can be worse than the risks from obesity.
I lost over half my body weight since October last year.
I'm down from 105kgs to 56kgs.
I have my physical body and abbs back that I had iny 20's.
I'm in my 50's and look fantastic.
I guess it's not for everyone though.
