Diabetes Drugs For Weight Loss: A Guide To Healthy Choices, with Ali Hashemi

Dia-Logue: The Diapoint Podcast

In this episode, we'll dive into the thought-provoking, controversial world of using diabetes drugs for weight loss.

It all started when Dr. Oz, an American talk show host, introduced Ozempic, a medication designed for diabetes management, to the world back in 2021 as a solution for weight loss. Since then it has become very popular. The promise of shedding pounds effortlessly led to a surge in demand that eventually caused a shortage of the drug.

We're going deeper into the story and learn what's behind this frenzy, and more importantly, what are the potential risks and rewards?

In today's episode, we have a special guest, Ali Hashemi, the Co-founder of meta[bolic] and GluCare.Health, to help us unravel the mysteries of using diabetes drugs for weight loss.

Society is on the hunt for a magic pill, a shortcut to the body they desire. But the question that looms large is this: Is it truly worth it? Is it safe?
