55. A Dietitian’s take on Ozempic for Weight Loss

In today’s episode I talk about a popular weight loss drug that’s hit the market recently. Ozempic is a medicine traditionally used to treat adult type 2 diabetes however this injectable medication is now gaining popularity as a weight loss substitute. We know that weight loss, and extreme measures to lose weight, are all narratives of a toxic diet culture but why are people so willing to use medication to see the results? During the episode, I share my opinion about Ozempic from a dietician perspective, from an IBS standpoint, its pros and cons, and whether or not this drug will actually help you lose weight.
