For women, we'll say you have PCOS, who already have a predisposition for insulin resistance.
They have a harder time losing weight because now they're also storing visceral fat.
We know they get on this cycle with hormonal change.
You know, being on Ozimbic allows them to lose
weight and combat insulin resistance in a faster way than they've ever been able to do before and especially when it comes to fertility and you're on a timeline that can be really revolutionary when you lose weight because that estrone decreases many women with pcos if they were overweight will start ovulating again because that suppression from the additional estrogen is gone and their inflammation markers go down their insulin resistance decreases
So there's a subset of people who have found their life changed by them.
And we never want to discredit that.
Many people have had difficulty losing weight, chronic medical conditions, have been able to reverse them.
And this has been a tool in the toolbox.
One common thing is having tools in the toolbox and being able to know when to use them, when to offer them.
Just like when we have the HRT discussion, we don't want to see people, we'll say women for this discussion, not being offered a therapeutic option or not choosing it out of fear.
Whether you mean to or not, giving the illusion that willpower is all you need to lose weight by what you said.
I can either do these hard things or I can choose this medication, which appears to be the easier way out.
And two things can be true at once.
People can work extremely hard.
Maybe they don't understand exactly what they should be doing.
And that's part of what we're trying to change the discussion on.
But reversing some metabolic change, even initially, can make a big difference in their game plan.
But you will lose body weight on these medications.
And so you have to have somebody guiding the ship.
