Weight loss products are a magnet for controversy. From fraudulent claims to critics and copycats, everybody has an opinion. Today I'm talking about the one currently on everybody's mind, GLP-1 drugs like Ozemic and Mounjaro. There are a lot of people in the healthcare community, especially alternative health, who are demonizing these medications. And why? I think it's because they work and put some people out of business. While there are risks and potentially serious side effects, there's a lot of misinformation out there on these drugs. In this episode, I'm sharing how they work, the truth about the problems, what you need to know before taking them, and why I believe they are an excellent option for many women struggling to lose weight. Being on medication to lose weight doesn't mean you're cutting a corner. It means you need some assistance, and that's okay. Try not to get bogged down in the negativity, find yourself a doctor that's an expert with these medications, and feel good about yourself. Enjoy the episode!
