301. Controversial Peptides For Weight Loss: Semaglutide and Tirzepatide

Once again, Betty Murray and I are going to bring you the real skinny on another controversial, sizzling topic out there right now...and that's these new type 2 diabetic medications like Ozempic and Monjauro etc. I'd like to mention that these are all peptide based which I find fascinating because we know the benefits of peptides. We also know that the FDA has already in the past has pulled a lot of the good ones like the growth hormone releasing peptides. And don't forget, big Pharma figured out that peptides work so they now take a peptide, slap a drug name on it and charge $1000/month for it because peptides work! I just had to mention that because I always find it fascinating when something that we've been using in the functional space or in the biohacking space becomes a drug all of a sudden...right...real interesting! In this very episode, I will give my personal experience with Monjauro where I will talk about the pros and the cons and both Betty and I will break down the downside of the use of these peptides. From discontinuing use and gaining the weight back to the loss of muscle mass...both effects that should be considered when considering giving these peptides a try. Shop ALL of Dr.
