45. Everything You Want To Know About Weight Loss Drugs But Are Too Afraid to Ask - Ozempic and the Oprah Effect with Obesity Physician, Dr. Sasha High

In 2024, the world was buzzing with the name Ozempic as weight loss drugs took center stage. Celebrities were coming forward left and right, crediting these drugs with transforming their lives. The once-taboo topic of weight loss drugs has been slowly losing its stigma, thanks in part to none other than Oprah Winfrey herself, who openly shared that she achieved her best weight with the help of a weight loss drug. But who exactly are these drugs for? How do they work? And most importantly, are they safe and right for you? Who shouldn't be taking them and why. It's time to delve into the world of obesity, Ozempic, and the powerful influence of Oprah on this week's episode. Joining us once again is expert obesity physician, Dr. Sasha High (@sashahighmd). Get ready for an eye-opening discussion!
