About This Item

A newer category of weight-loss medications has captured extraordinary, almost unmatched coverage across mainstream media and the business world. Ozempic and similar GLP-1 mimicking drugs have been praised as the era's defining medical breakthrough, a potential solution to obesity, and a transformative miracle treatment. But do they live up to the hype? Looking back, the history of weight-loss medications is filled with disappointments. From amphetamine-laden "rainbow diet pills" to the eventual downfall of fen-phen, most weight-loss drugs that were once approved in the U.S. have since been withdrawn from the market after unexpected side effects turned them into serious public health hazards. In this book, OZEMPIC: Risks, Benefits, and Natural Alternatives to GLP-1 Weight-Loss Drugs, Dr. Michael Greger digs into the research behind these medications to provide the answers people are looking for. Just how safe are they? Why do so many users discontinue them within just a few months? What triggers the plateau in weight loss, and what happens to the body once someone stops taking them? He addresses how to manage frequently reported side effects—like "Ozempic face," the loss of muscle mass, and digestive issues—along with the potential for more severe risks, such as thyroid and pancreatic cancer. The long-term safety of these drugs remains uncertain. Are there safer, more affordable, natural ways to increase GLP-1 through diet and lifestyle changes? In this concise guide, Dr. Greger moves past the marketing hype to lay out the advantages and drawbacks of these weight-loss medications, empowering readers to form their own conclusions given the serious and often severe toll of obesity.
