Dr Chalmers Path to Pro - Ozempic and Cancer


Listen Later

Concerns about Ozempic and cancer, particularly thyroid cancer, have surfaced, but reports are mostly anecdotal and lack solid research. Many users already have high risk factors like obesity, diabetes, poor diet, and processed food consumption, making it misleading to blame the medication alone.
