What are some other "Weight Loss" Drugs all about?

So, today . . . let's talk about a newer "drug" called "Zepbound" . . .

This is a prescription, once a week injection approved by the FDA for chronic weight management.

Now, with this drug . . . it "mimics" 2 natural gut hormones . . . GIP and GLP-1 . . . to help control appetite . . . slow stomach emptying . . . and increase the feeling of fullness.

And again . . . the "trickery" continues . . .

Because "Zepbound" . . . is the SAME DRUG as Mounjaro . . . which is approved for "type 2 diabetes" . . .

This is how the FDA manipulates the system . . . and ultimately our HEALTH!!!!

And again . . . it's intended for long-term use . . . because "weight REGAIN" can occur if we STOP!

Now . . . LISTEN UP PEOPLE . . .

"IF" . . . we're NOT diagnosed with FULL BLOWN "Type 2 diabetes" . . .

And prescribed these "weight loss" drugs . . .

Which WE ARE PEOPLE . . . LOOK IT UP!!!!!!

We can become "hypoglycemic" with "low blood sugar" causing dizziness, confusion, weakness and even seizures

It can also cause . . . "pancreatitis" . . . "digestive issues" . . . "Gallbladder problems" . . . and "Muscles Loss" . . .

HOW IS THIS GOOD FOR US???

And what about the weight loss drug called . . . Qsymia or Contrave???

Well . . . Qsymia "isn't" considered a GLP-1 stimulator . . .

It's a combination of "phentermine" . . . which is a stimulant . . . and "topiramate" . . . which is an ANTI-SEIZURE drug . . . that works by "suppressing" appetite and increasing the feeling of fullness.

This is a different kind of "weight loss drug" . . . and works with the NERVOUS SYSTEM to reduce hunger.

BUT . . . has the side effects of . . . increased heart rate and dependency.

And what about "Contrave"???

Well . . . "Contrave" is another FDA approved prescription drug for chronic weight management.

And this "drug's" active ingredients are called . . . Naltrexone and Bupropion . . . with "naltrexone" being used for "alcohol and opioid dependence" . . . and "bupropion" being an "antidepressant" . . .

What is wrong with this picture PEOPLE???

What are we REALLY doing to our body and health . . . just because our doctor, the FDA and the pharmaceutical industry . . .

Say it's . . . OKAY???

Why are we being "MISLED"???

These drugs . . . affect the brain by regulating food intake and reward . . .

With common side effects like . . . nausea, constipation, headaches, vomiting and dizziness . . .

Ans "serious" side effects like . . . increased blood pressure and heart rate, liver problems and allergic reactions . . . AND . . . an increased risk of SUICIDAL THOUGHTS and behavior.

Come on people . . . we need to SMARTEN UP!!!!

Do your research before you take ANY weight loss drug . . .
