Episode 199 - Ozempic/Wegovy (GLP 1s) - Where Are We Now? (Part 1)
Wegovy, (often referred to as Ozempic) was approved by the FDA in June 2021. Now that we have lived 4 years of a GLP frenzied hellscape there must be new data on how well GLP1’s work and how many lives they have saved. The numbers must be pretty impressive right? Hint: It’s not impressive…not at all. Join me for part one of this deep dive into these (not so) new weight loss drugs where I share exactly how much weight people lose, if it improves their health (or worsens it), and all sorts of other nonsense that has been happening in the ensuing years after the press heralded Wegovy as a “game changer” that will “end” fatness. TW: for mentions of weight, mentions of children taking the drug and other general anti-fat ideas.
