(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
A study led by researchers at University College London found that participants who took the drug - sold under brand names including Ozempic and Wegovy - had a 20% lower risk of cardiovascular disease, regardless of how much weight they lost.

The one study with a small sample 'suggests' a 20% reduced risk. Not strong evidence or evidence at all.

@PaKalsha 13 дней назад

"Reduces your risk of heart attack or stroke... if you've already had a heart attack or stroke". This is legitimately great news for HA/S patients, but that second part of the claim is getting lost in the hype of "get skinny".

Educate yourself on what foods spike insulin and avoid.

@NothingButAPeanut 14 дней назад

It is not about 'foods that spike insulin'. You get overweight because you store more energy than you burn off. If you follow youtube charlatans, like dr Berg, that's what you end up believing, i.e. the evil carbohydrates. Try and tell Italians that they've got it all wrong with all their pastas and pizzas or MOST of the athletes out there.

@@keepgoing7533 Cereal is one of the worst things you could eat. Nothing in it nutritious, it's full of refined sugars and chemicals mixed in. If you want to know the truth about these big corporations look up the history of Kellogg's. These foods are slow poison's deliberately made to keep people sick. They are profiting off of it.

@ZWD2011 13 дней назад

Weight loss has been proven by manufacturer, however with assistance to change lifestyle, which all participants changed. Long-term effect studies have not been concluded yet. The point is that this should not be a life-long escape route. My mum died from another hyped drug that had been promoted widely on social media. A drug so widely accepted that even GP's prescribed it without questions. A drug that later caused the opioid epidemic. So, no expert. Just cautious.

@arttydesigner1663 13 дней назад

I think this could be great in terms of resetting people to change but if your not going to change your habbits long term then you will just put the weight back on and as said there are real risks side effects. People being really negative need to realise some people have the worst genetic make up for wight gain its not just people who let themselves go it can be beyond peoples control.

@jarrodmagnusson4101 14 дней назад

Nobody needs to take more jabs. Haven't people gotten enough of it these past few years? If you want to lose weight just fast and eat less, it's not rocket science. Cut out high fructose corn syrup, pop, fast food, chips that's the problem. It's funny media doesn't promote this instead of promoting a paid advertisement for the pharmaceutical companies. They must of paid good money to push this garbage. Use common sense people.

the risk of heart attacks reduced by the same amount regardless of how much weight the people lost. That means this drug is addressing a cause of heart attacks, not just reducing weight

@ricochet_180 14 дней назад

Seriously! Anything for a quick fix. Why don't people stop gorging on ultra processed food, red/processed meat, eggs, milk, and cheese and maybe start eating what the human body was designed to eat...Plants. Eat fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds, drink water and some coffee, work out 4 times a week for 40 minutes, and sleep 7 hours minimum. There is no need for medication. People are just so lazy it's no wonder there's an obese epidemic. 💁🏼‍♂️

@Thatperson-kt3mu 14 дней назад

Maybe its because unhealthy processed junk is cheaper than fruit veg and coffee ...

@IveJustHadAPiss 13 дней назад

Because most humans have incredibly poor impulse control and would only live such a lifestyle if they were coerced into it. Nearly everyone knows how to be healthy, but there are very few shining examples of people who can actually do everything on that list of yours. Your own subjective experiences are meaningless.

Not everybody who was well overweight during the psndemic either died or becsme seruously ill with/or covid despite ex PM Johnson claiming that the covid vsccines would be ineffective in terms of fully protecting well overweight people. Taking the weight loss jab has to be optional not mandatory but it would be wrong to set the BMI too low such as 25.0 to 29.9.

@user-tt6il2up4o 14 дней назад

No drugs for obesity. Tax all those ingredients that cause weight gain. Sugar, specifically fructose and others. Tax all processed foods heavily. No tax on in processed foods, modify people’s behaviour through taxation.

@jarrodmagnusson4101 13 дней назад

or better yet why is the corrupt FDA even allowing these ingredients to be put into the food in the first place?? Most of the ingredients they use in processed foods are toxic and harmful to the body. They don't want you to be healthy instead they want this cycle of sickness to perpetuate into the medical system so you have to buy more medication to treat the sickness they caused.
