Will Ozempic Change The World? with Johann Hari
Ozempic…the magic medicine that's gaining traction around the world.
In fact, the science and impact behind Ozempic and other medications like it are changing the world in ways we haven't seen since the invention of the smartphone.
Now, I thought I didn't have much interest in or care about this wave of “magic” weight loss, but when I read Magic Pill by Johann Hari, I knew I had to have him on the show!
Johann himself is an Ozempic success story, completely reversing his own obesity in the first year of taking it. What he’s learned about the science and the reality this drug is creating will totally shock you.
First, let's talk about something important: Body Positivity. Everyone deserves to and should love themselves, but health at any size is not something supported by science, and to put it simply, obesity is bad (even deadly) for your health.
That brings us to two HUGE benefits of Ozempic.
ONE…it dramatically reduces and reverses obesity.
TWO…it MASSIVELY reverses health conditions associated with obesity.
These benefits are and will continue to be an insane shake-up to the future of public health but also the economic industries affected by these changes (Listen to hear for yourself, Krispy Kreme, yeah, sure, that makes sense. Knee replacement hinges, yeah, that tracks. JET FUEL? JEWELERS? The reach is far wider than you or I even realize).
So how does this magic drug work? Well, it’s a shot you inject in your stomach or leg that introduces an artificial dose of GLP1 (that's the hormone that puts the brakes on you when you’re full, like a little tap on your shoulder to tell you it's time to put down that tub of chicken).
This hormone allows you to be full faster, but not only that, some optimistic science might lead us to believe this is a self control drug, as some users report reduced use of drugs, alcohol, and other addictive substances and behaviors.
Okay, so you’re telling me... In 10 years, everyone will be skinny, and no one will have an addiction? Sign me up!
Unfortunately, along with these astonishing benefits come some really disturbing risks. We touch on a few, including malnutrition due to dosing issues. And Johann opens up about his experience with the psychological ramifications of having previously relied on food as a coping mechanism.
And... that’s where we stop. Sorry for the cliffhanger but you have to come back next week to hear the full scope of risks, who's a good (OR BAD) candidate for the drug, and how we can nip the problem of obesity right at the root.
What’s Inside:
- What is Ozempic and how does it work?
- Is Ozempic (and similar medications) going to change the world?
- The impact of reversing obesity on public health and the economy.
- The astonishing benefits and disturbing risks of Ozempic.
Wow! This opened my eyes to so much about the drug, Ozempic, and we’ve still got Part 2 next week! So I know that reducing and reversing obesity is good, but I never realized the insane reach it would have on the economy. What surprised you the most about the science and effects of Ozempic? Let me know on Insta!
