    😢 My 52 year old sister-in-law suddenly died of 100% occluded carotid artery. She had bariatric surgery in 2012, was thin before she died, so it worked for weight loss. She didn’t change her eating habits. She just ate smaller amounts of heavily processed foods, drank more alcohol & never exercised.

      You are actually more likely to lose muscle before you lose fat. The body is predisposed to utilize for carbs (glucose) as energy before it goes for fat. We store glucose in our muscles. Adipose tissue (fat) is a back up storage system.

If you do ozempic I'd bet that people (not all) are still eating the same way that got them fat...garbage food...and not improving themselves physically so it would make sense more lean mass is being lost because they aren't doing anything to preserve it.

      @@x.y.7385 re Ozempic... that's the experience I have had working with people who took it. Their doctors kind of "market" it at them as the alternative to having to make the lifestyle changes so it goes poorly for them. To be fair, many of them feel too sick and down when they are taking the drug to be motivated to do much exercise or anything like that.
      When you are attempting to lose weight the old-fashioned way, via lifestyle changes, the exercise will help you to build muscle while you are losing weight. HIIT is best for people who want to lose but I still believe in cardio.

    This episode was incredible! I’m a pediatrician with a nutrition focus, and the decision of whether or not to prescribe these medications to young people is incredibly difficult. I have to weigh the long-term risks of obesity with the unknown long-term risks of obesity medications. Will I be helping them in the long run or will I be violating my oath to “Do No Harm?” This conversation offered many points to consider. I immediately bought the book and look forward to reading it. Thank you!

      I am going to address you asking you to please be careful with your recommendations being sure to identify the reason for obesity. I have gone through several PCPs in the last two years because they keep recommending Ozempic to me. They don't even seem to understand that it wouldn't be useful for me.
      I have always struggled with my weight but I am not an overeater. Additionally my labs are great. Blood glucose is fine. Cholesterol is in the 140s. Thyroid seems to be working.
      My metabolism is broken. I exercise for an hour daily 5-6 days a week. My breakfast is a very healthy smoothie with fruit and protein powder (just pea powder no food additives) and I snack on fresh vegetables and eat a reasonable dinner. I still weigh well over 200 pounds.
      I was taking in less than 800 calories daily because I was so afraid to eat for fear of gaining weight, but I wasn't meeting my nutrition needs so I shoot for 1500 now.

      @@domesticmedicine Thank you for sharing your story. At this time, I am not prescribing obesity medications at all. My focus is on lifestyle medicine and I emphasize a weight-neutral approach. I will continue with that emphasis, but I have already been approached by teens and their families about prescribing it. For now, I am just referring them to an obesity medicine specialist. The causes of obesity and related chronic diseases are complex though and it is well documented that, in the current culture of the US, it is nigh-on impossible to follow a healthy diet, especially for children. The points made by Mr. Hari were thought provoking. Which is worse: the known effects of long-term obesity or the unknown long-term effects of the medications. Am I harming my patients more by not offering to prescribe them? So much to consider!

    I would be VERY curious as to the long term ability of your body's natural production of GLP1. "Normally" as with other hormonal supplementation, our bodies recognize elevated levels of the hormones and over time, naturally "decrease" it's own production. My suspicion is that taking a synthetic GLP1 would react in the body in the same way, possibly creating a lifelong dependency of the medication.

      @hihikats yes I think you're right. They are saying that is one of the reasons you have to keep taking these because you will no longer produce glp1 on you own. Lessens longer you take it. I can't remember where I read the study and it's been the last few days. It has just recently come out.

    I am 60 days on carnivore. It has completely reset my relationship with food. Why? Because I have satiety. I eat when I am hungry. When I am not hungry I do not have cravings to snack because of that - If I have that thought that I do want to eat (habit takes time to break) then ai have water which I would have never done prior to this. I have lost 17 lbs - which is a healthy weight loss amount for that time. I don’t have joint pain and have consistent energy. I would have considered using these drugs but right now I feel like staying on this plan instead. I am old enough to have lived through all the prior weight loss drugs that were pulled so have a little skepticism. Glad it is there and hope it works for those that choose it.

    I loved the insight and the honesty. It makes one think, here we have a pill to solve the addiction of food that was created by industry. Someone has to risk their life to solve their addiction that wasn't their fault to begin with. When we know better it is too late we have to fight the good fight on our own, be told we are at fault, and be shamed. The proof is in the elementary school of Japan. They are set up for success, we sadly are set up for abuse. Then, we risk our own lives either by being unhealthy or taking a pill to get our brain to stop wanting to eat the bad stuff. It is a long journey for those of us who are fighting the good fight without the drug, and realize it is up to us to educate and exercise our bodies to want the good stuff. it's sad but true.

    I don't know how anyone can stay on Ozempic. Its overrated and think there's a lot REAL everyday people aren't telling you. I tried it for 3 months and I hated it. Its awful. Mind you I only needed to lose 50 lbs, I'm not severely obese. Well, Ozempic DOES effect your brain. I don’t suffer from depression but felt sad & depressed on it. I had no gastrointestinal issues on it. No diarrhea or cramps but I did feel nauseated most days. I felt absolutely no appetite suppression at .25 or .50mg, just felt a lot of malaise. Achy, sad, my body hurt..but once I got to the 1.0 mg dose the extreme fatigue was incredible. I couldn't function, was so tired! The fatigue felt like a train hit me. I kept thinking it would go away, the symptoms but they never did. After 3 months and having lost 12 lbs I stopped taking Ozempic. 12 lbs wasn't worth feeling like garbage. It literally felt like I had a flu that never went away. I stopped taking Ozempic, it started clearing from my body and 3 wks later all my symptoms disappeared. I feel normal again. No sadness, my body doesn't hurt anymore, energy level back to normal. That drug isn't worth it to me.

It's because they saw potential in me that I wasted. One even said: It felt like you walked around with a winning lottery ticket, nice face, good jaw line, tall, but you refused to turn it in and every day the deadline drew closer and you continue to waste your youth on food, it frustrated him. He asked me: what were you doing?

    My adult daughter took Wecovy and started having stomach issues and stopped. It got worse, and she was in and out of hospital. They said it was a side effect and would go away soon. It continued for months until she had emergency surgery. Her intestines were blocked, and then they found Lymphoma. The surgeon cut out the tumor that was blocking, and her intestines kept dying, she had 4 more surgeries and had to get an ileostomy bag so she would be able to get her chemo. She was in the hospital and in horrible pain for months. Her body couldn't absorb nutrition. It has been 10 months, and they reversed the bag 6 weeks ago. She is slowly recovering but struggles to put on weight. I'm unsure if it was caused by the Wecovy or the inability for the team to look past this as a side effect. We didn't know if she was going to survive. I am still worried.

    When I think of Ozempic, I think of the scene in The Hunger Games, where Katniss and Peeta go to the Capitol for the Presidents party and everyone is filling themselves to capacity. They drink something to "make themselves sick", so that they can eat more.
    I know that there are people who are helped enormously by the product but it can become a problem when people abuse the solution.
    How is it helpful, if it's not used as part of a lifestyle change program. One that helps the user understand how to keep the weight off.
    99 percent of the people, that I personally know, who take these drugs are not changing their eating habits, nor trying to figure out how to maintain the weight loss after they get to their desired weight.

      Yeah it really doesn't work for people who don't overeat. So if you are at a stage in your life where your weight gain is due to hormonal changes, the exercise is probably doing more for you that the drug.

      @@stephanyhoffelt7424 you are absolutely correct. I started losing weight once i started walking but before that nothing and it’s coming off at a snails pace. It’s so frustrating because I watch what o eat also. People don’t understand this struggle unless they are going through it or have gone through it.

    The thing that gets me worried was my 72 year old father got prescribed for this med in pill form. Some of these doctors are prescribing this medication without too much thoughts into it and it’s dangerous! My father has heart issue and kidney issues as well. This doctor saw him twice.

    I understand where Hari is coming from because I understand that the obesity epidemic is largely the result of the SAD, but I urge you all to be a little more measured in your approach to obesity. Overeating is not always the reason for obesity.
    I lead a support group for people who suffered severe nutritional deficits on Ozempic because they really weren't overeating to begin with. (Full disclosure I haven't taken it, it is part of my job.) For the most part, it seems physicians either don't understand how the drug works or just see fat and immediately assume it's lifestyle.
    There are people who who don't overeat or have a great deal of processed food and sugars in their diet, who are still overweight. Some of these people just need to get up and move. Some people like myself exercise intensely, (60 minute sessions 5-6 days a week and a bedtime stretching routine) limit calories (1500 daily) and still don't lose much weight.
    My concern about Ozempic is that physicians who don't like to take the time to listen to people about their health in the first place seem to be throwing it at everyone indiscriminately.

    If on this drug you eat so much less, it’s so important that each mouthful of food is the best nutritionally so that you don’t end up with nutritional deficiencies of all the vitamins and minerals. Also when you have reached your desired weight and you come off the drug you have the help and support to get used to eating normal amounts of food again not excessive eating or junk food etc. because you could be back where you started very quickly.

    Before I even begin watching this video? FOOD is a passion for some of us and a great "comfort" as opposed to more harmful vices such as smoking, drinking alcohol, or gambling (just to name a few). If all Ozempic does is cause the "satiating qualities" of consuming vast quantities of food "go away" then I'm not even sure I would want to use this pharmaceutical product. What is replacing the "comfort" found in food? Users of Ozempic seem to neglect to give a voice to what they are replacing that midnight run of copious amounts of Taco Bell dollar-menu items with!

    The food industry will soon find a way to override any good that ozempic has done. It is all about profit for the food industry. If people are eating less then that means less profit for the food industry, they will soon find another chemical to make you always hungry.

    Sorry, type 2 diabetics have too much insulin, with insulin resistance, and then are prescribed more insulin. This conversation worries me a lot. I truly hope people find the doctors who are in the low carb space who are helping their patients reverse type 2 diabetes and obesity via how they are eating, Dr Jason Fung, Dr David Unwin, there are so many, they get no financial gain from it, but such love.

I know what healthy eating is but since i quit smoking 10 yrs ago, I have had an eating disorder. Phentermine worked well but Dr wont let me use it for more than 2 months.

    To be honest it doesn't teach you about what to eat at all. It only suppresses your appetite so much that you have no desire to eat, ever. And if you don't force yourself to eat something your energy levels go really low. Honestly it's the best thing that ever worked for my diabetes. But I had to stop it after 6 months. In a way I'm grateful for the shortages. Because I refuse to go off and on and off and on and off and on because they can't keep up. And it also has a big black box warning for kidney and the gallbladder problems and permanent gastroparesis. Which means basically your stomach and/ or intestines stops moving food. I know someone who had gastric bypass. 10 years ago when she's having so many problems. If it came to death Or ozempic then I do what I have to do. But they really shouldn't give this out without having people go to a dietitian. And showing people how to do weight training. Resistance bands. Yes you will lose more muscles than fat and that slows your metabolism down. Another reason why you have to stay on it. I lost 22 lb gained 10 lb back when I had to go off of it. During the holidays. However I've kept the rest off. For 5 months now. Just hope I can start moving downward without it now.

    But I’ve always been active. I’ve always been to the gym. I work with Horses every day.
    I’m using it as a tool to get where I need to be and then I’m gonna work out because I definitely lost muscle mass more than I lost fat I still have more fat than I do muscle mass now than I ever did because of taking this I believe
    I’m just saying what I feel this happened to me
    In the past four months
    I’ve always been a healthy eater yes occasionally junk food here or there is some fried foods but never fast food or snacking just normal food, salads, and meat
    No pasta, limited bread
    I started taking creatine halfway through thinking OK I’m losing muscle mass so I want to keep as much as I can
    Being at age 53

    This was a great conversation. CLEARLY, Obesity brings with it over 200 diseases and/or co-morbidities. These drugs have been around for 18 years, and I believe the risks associated with being Obese far exceed the risks of the drugs. Most of the risks associated with the semaglutide and tirzepatide are in the 1% chance. I know people on the drug, and most are no longer diabetic, no longer on blood pressure meds, or have reversed a PCOS diagnosis. Thank you Johan & Jay!

      ​@charlotte1366 with ALL due respect, please don't be ignorant and disrespectful. You clearly didn't LISTEN. Obesity is a disease physiologically/biologically. Key hormones in the brain may lead some obese people to receive cues that they are hungry...these hormones impact how full a person is (satiety). And there are others who have metabolic disorders that stop them from losing weight. FULL STOP.
