Drugs like Wegovy and Ozempic are rapidly growing in popularity as weight-loss treatments. These medications contain semaglutide, a drug originally formulated to help people with diabetes control their blood sugar but also has shown to have a significant effect on appetite and is now also used for obesity. This video explains exactly how these drugs work in the body.

    Been taking it for months. It works. Just took my weekly shot 1 hr ago
  • It works and yes you need to workout, eat and stay hydrated! If not you will end up in hospital probably so educate yourselves and ask you doctor questions. Do not just order online. Common sense.

    I was taking it and it did bring my A1c down to 6.1. But I ended up in the hospital with Pancreatitis for 2 months and almost lost my life because my Pancreas went into a necrosis phase in other words it was dying. I now am a full blown diabetic taking insulin 3-4 times a day. So just be careful everyone It’s not a “MIRACLE DRUG”

    There go all the benefits of exercise.. if you don’t put in the work you can’t get the results.. weight ( precious muscle ) loss yes.. what about balance agility strength flexibility and mobility , cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength and endurance..
  • How long before we find out just how toxic this stuff is and the class action lawsuits begin? "If you or a loved one experienced [horrible side effects] after taking [latest wonder drug] you may be entitled to compensation"
  • @OriginalCovfefe
    I wonder what the long-term effect is on those who don’t actually need it and are just taking it to lose weight
  • @GlassICE
    Ok so, does anyone even heard about something called: Workout ? no side effects, no weight return no nothing, try it sometimes it's good for you
  • Love how they fail to mention the most common side effect: constipation!

  • Eat less, exercise more. You don't need big farma to sell you a pill with disasterous consequences. You need discipline and common sense.😂😂
