Weight Loss Injection: Hype or Hope?

Weight Loss Injection: Hype or Hope?

"Feel good, live better" – the health podcast from Premium Medical Circle. In this episode, Prof. Dr. Uwe Nixdorff answers the question: Do weight loss injections deliver what they promise?

For the internist and cardiologist Prof. Dr. Uwe Nixdorff weight loss injections are a game-changer. Because Ozempic & Co, originally developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, can help people with severe obesity (adiposity) lose up to 25 percent of body weight – and thus protect against serious secondary diseases such as heart attack or stroke. What exactly these so-called GLP-1 agonists trigger in the body, what side effects may occur, and how Prof. Nixdorff prevents the famous yo-yo effect from occurring after discontinuation, is also discussed by the founder and medical director of the European Prevention Centers (EPC) in Düsseldorf in the current podcast episode of FEEL GOOD, LIVE BETTER.
