OZempec is a commercialized name for a drug called GLP1.

There's a lot of these though now, but GLP1 is the one that made it more

prevalent.

It's everywhere.

It's in the conversations over medicine, but it's also in the conversation regarding

weight loss and how you see it.

And so here's what it does.

It mimics gut hormones,

which lowers blood pressure,

which reduces your appetite,

which is slowing digestion.

It was originally designed

for extreme cases of type 2 diabetes,

For others, they see it as a cosmetic hack

to get the body that they're hoping to get.

But I think what we wanna talk about today

is not so much the details over the complicated

decision to take dangerous drugs to save your life. What we want to talk about is hacking your way
