- Injections of a weight loss drug could be a 'game changer' for cardiovascular patients by cutting the risk of heart attacks or strokes.

A study led by researchers at University College London found that participants who took the drug - sold under brand names including Ozempic and Wegovy - had a 20% lower risk of cardiovascular disease, regardless of how much weight they lost.

This is an advert for a pharmaceutical company’s latest product
This “Professor” gonna get a nice cheque for promoting from the pharmaceutical company for promoting its product.
The one study with a small sample 'suggests' a 20% reduced risk. Not strong evidence or evidence at all.
They really want everyone dosed up
"Reduces your risk of heart attack or stroke... if you've already had a heart attack or stroke".
This is legitimately great news for HA/S patients, but that second part of the claim is getting lost in the hype of "get skinny".
Educate yourself on what foods spike insulin and avoid.
It is not about 'foods that spike insulin'. You get overweight because you store more energy than you burn off. If you follow youtube charlatans, like dr Berg, that's what you end up believing, i.e. the evil carbohydrates. Try and tell Italians that they've got it all wrong with all their pastas and pizzas or MOST of the athletes out there.
Pretty much pop, chips, ice cream, fast food that's literally the problem.
24.9 BMI is alright.
I ate 2 normal sized bowls of coco pops with milk yesterday
at home watching Poltergeist 2, and shortly after I felt sleepy.
Must be my insulin went up then down sharply.
@@keepgoing7533 Cereal is one of the worst things you could eat. Nothing in it nutritious, it's full of refined sugars and chemicals mixed in. If you want to know the truth about these big corporations look up the history of Kellogg's. These foods are slow poison's deliberately made to keep people sick. They are profiting off of it.
Ugh jab. What a weird term.
Any news corporation that still uses the term "game changer" is truly junior IMO. Sooooooooo overused.
FACTS - much love to Prof Joseph for laying it out.
Eating healthy and walking 10 minutes a day would also do the job 😅 why put more chemicals in the body
Lol wait… ur telling me all it does is stop you from eating? 😂
Nah your good all just workout
I've noticed that when I don't eat carbs in the evening, I don't need to poop in the morning.
Do you need to poop at all? Surely you have to eventually!?
@@fburton8 Of course, but not immediately which saves time B4 work.
😅
This is a paid for promotion of pharmaceutical company product that has not even been pier reviewed. Wow the public gonna lap this up
I don't care who's reviewing it. I have used it for 8 months for insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, and was AMAZING!
It has been peer reviewed, the results of the study were published in NEJM and just yesterday in Nature. It is also approved by the FDA for CVD and weight loss
@@laoluuu Every drug that the FDA banned was first approved by them
And every drug not approved by them wasn't a drug. WTF are you even saying. @@gareth449
@@marilenaganea6578why not just cut out sugar as that’s mostly the cause of type 2 diabetes. Too lazy?
Fasting for 1, or 2 days aweek can help with weight loss❤️👍
Where the K. fans at 😂
Propaganda
A miracle cure for a prosperity disease? No need to change bad habits? No long term downsides? What did your mum say about things sounding too good to be true?
Trying to be an expert on something you know zero about? Social media in a nutshell 👏
People who yo-yo between normal BMI and obese BMI need more support once back at normal BMI to stop them becoming obese again.
Weight loss has been proven by manufacturer, however with assistance to change lifestyle, which all participants changed. Long-term effect studies have not been concluded yet. The point is that this should not be a life-long escape route. My mum died from another hyped drug that had been promoted widely on social media. A drug so widely accepted that even GP's prescribed it without questions. A drug that later caused the opioid epidemic. So, no expert. Just cautious.
I think this could be great in terms of resetting people to change but if your not going to change your habbits long term then you will just put the weight back on and as said there are real risks side effects. People being really negative need to realise some people have the worst genetic make up for wight gain its not just people who let themselves go it can be beyond peoples control.
Need to compete with intermittent fasting. Drug money any which way they can get it.
Nobody needs to take more jabs. Haven't people gotten enough of it these past few years? If you want to lose weight just fast and eat less, it's not rocket science. Cut out high fructose corn syrup, pop, fast food, chips that's the problem. It's funny media doesn't promote this instead of promoting a paid advertisement for the pharmaceutical companies. They must of paid good money to push this garbage. Use common sense people.
No.
One should always take this and avoid natural fruits and vegetables 👍🏻
Well this would be expected as there is a link between diabetes and heart disease.
the risk of heart attacks reduced by the same amount regardless of how much weight the people lost. That means this drug is addressing a cause of heart attacks, not just reducing weight
This is a good innovation!
Seriously! Anything for a quick fix. Why don't people stop gorging on ultra processed food, red/processed meat, eggs, milk, and cheese and maybe start eating what the human body was designed to eat...Plants.
Eat fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds, drink water and some coffee, work out 4 times a week for 40 minutes, and sleep 7 hours minimum.
There is no need for medication. People are just so lazy it's no wonder there's an obese epidemic. 💁🏼♂️
Maybe its because unhealthy processed junk is cheaper than fruit veg and coffee ...
Because most humans have incredibly poor impulse control and would only live such a lifestyle if they were coerced into it.
Nearly everyone knows how to be healthy, but there are very few shining examples of people who can actually do everything on that list of yours. Your own subjective experiences are meaningless.
If the drug works, there is no good reason it can't be prescribed.
It doesn't work. If you keep consuming garbage it won't change anything.
Your name is ironic.
No drugs tax heavily processed foods specifically sugars etc.
So your too lazy to eat properly and exercise, you the. Expect tax payers to pay for laziness?
@@fspg3207 very few
Not everybody who was well overweight during the psndemic either died or becsme seruously ill with/or covid despite ex PM Johnson claiming that the covid vsccines would be ineffective in terms of fully protecting well overweight people.
Taking the weight loss jab has to be optional not mandatory but it would be wrong to set the BMI too low such as 25.0 to 29.9.
No drugs for obesity.
Tax all those ingredients that cause weight gain.
Sugar, specifically fructose and others.
Tax all processed foods heavily.
No tax on in processed foods, modify people’s behaviour through taxation.
or better yet why is the corrupt FDA even allowing these ingredients to be put into the food in the first place?? Most of the ingredients they use in processed foods are toxic and harmful to the body. They don't want you to be healthy instead they want this cycle of sickness to perpetuate into the medical system so you have to buy more medication to treat the sickness they caused.
No one should take a jab of anything after the Covid coverup🤷🏻♂️
This reminds me of them "miracle pills" who were supposed to make people lose fat but never worked! 😂
These actually work
@@heinedenmark Oh, yeah, yeah! Them pills where supposed to work too. That's what "they" said. 🤣
@@Clydeb_9994 Are you a Trumper?
@@heinedenmark
Do you work for ‘them’
@@heinedenmark I proudly am, but at least i don't like my own comments. 🤣
Ozempic is a great medication and it is worth the risk…. I was in the ozempic and I lost 10 percent of my weight and I feel great.👍
😂
Must be mad.. just fast Mondays & Thursdays. ☝🏼🇵🇸🇧🇩
Obviously learned sweet f all from the last round of needles did you boy's 😂 very easy take the fork from your grid for a change might help 😂
