Muscle for Life with Mike MatthewsEp. #1024: Spencer Nadolsky on Reasons to Use and Avoid Weight Loss DrugsThere’s a weight loss drug revolution happening right now. Medicines containing semaglutide (like Ozempic and Wegovy) used to treat diabetes have recently gained FDA approval for obesity, and many people are turning to drugs to help them lose weight. Weight loss drugs aren’t new—previous medications like fen-phen turned out to be dangerous, and even taken off the market. However, these newer drugs appear much safer and even more effective. So, are these medications the solution to the obesity epidemic, an unfair “easy-out” for people who need to learn to eat less and move more, or just the latest...2023-02-0148 min
