In this episode, Dr. Jockers takes a deep dive into the shocking truth about Ozempic and other GLP-1 weight loss drugs. You’ll hear how these medications actually work in the body, why they cause rapid weight loss for some, and what doctors often leave out about their risks. The discussion is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
You’ll also learn about the real side effects—ranging from digestive distress to more dangerous issues like thyroid cancer and kidney failure—that affect nearly one in five people taking these drugs. Dr. Jockers breaks down the science in plain language so you can make informed choices.
And if you’re wondering whether there’s a safer way to get the same results, you’ll discover how protein, fiber, and healthy fats can mimic the appetite-regulating effects of Ozempic. These lifestyle strategies not only reduce cravings but also improve long-term health without the side effects.
