CNN reports Ozembic side effects for a few people--and speculate we could have even more Ozembic injuries. Pretty sure its marketed as safe and effective (but only for diabetics?...). Thank goodness CNN cares about pharmaceutical injuries. (Or are they really just shaming folks who are desperate to lose weight....?but only if they aren’t diabetic?) Meanwhile...as more and more people rushed (or forced) to get vaxxed, the more injuries and death occurred. No ‘reporting’ there. CNN, Spare me your faux concern. The double standards are hard to keep up with.

I mentioned this in a prior article where it was reported that some patients decided to not use these drugs because of the possible lifetime commitment. However, we also have to take into account the fact that these drugs should lead people to focus on lifestyle and behavioral changes, so they lose weight but get an understanding of healthy foods. Get a better understanding of their relationship between food and their health. Instead, most people may take this drug and think they can eat whatever they want- just less of it. That's one of the points I made in the Weight Watchers article. Someone who is not fat but eats only junk food likely isn't healthy.

We have an N of 2 using semaglutide. Both reported nausea and discomfort with a twice weekly administration. The rest went to the waste stream. It's not a good peptide to take or administer.

Isn't Ozempic intended for diabetics in the first place? That's what I had thought.

Yes it was originally developed for diabetes with one of the other effects being weight-loss which gave it even more attention. It seems as if it's use is more in-line with weight-loss now more than diabetes, even though it is being used off-label.

But I think your question is mostly about my remark on gastroparesis and whether those who are diabetic may be more at risk. I think this sort of suggests that there's a lot of complicated factors at work here. Apparently obese individuals have slower bowel emptying to begin with which I didn't know about, so maybe a lot of endogenous GLP-1 is being produced already in these individuals to try and slow down the eating, which is made worse by exogenous receptor agonists.

In any case, what this all suggests is that there's a lot that still isn't know about these drugs, to the point that the group it is intended to treat may actually not be a good fit for the drug if they are at higher risk of gastroparesis, but most doctors and patients may not know until millions of people take the drug. Sounds a bit familiar to the vaccines to be quite honest, and was one of the last points I made in my article.

the origin of ozempic 'idea':

https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/the-monster-whose-bite-saves-lives.html

the lie around it that the so dis-liked VITAMIN C binds to the very same receptor as insulin, it helps to regulate it. Magnesium is needed for this ATP driven process... According to T. Levy, super dose of VitC with Mg will fix any type of diabetes.. There is always an issue with everyones' physiology, drugs taken etc., etc. but one thing is always valid, watch the DIET.

Interesting, isn't it, that they allow an off-label use for this diabetic drug, but would not allow the same under conditions of possible life or death for HCQ or Ivermectin. They though it would be best to tell people to just go home and come back to the ED if you began to turn blue and couldn't breathe, and then get the government approved protocols. If this doesn't tell you everything need to enlighten yourselves about the motives behind the greatest grift and abuses enacted upon us Americans, then nothing will.

It’s not off label use, Semaglutide is labeled as Wegovy for weight loss and Ozempic for type 2 diabetes. But I agree with your sentiment!
