On this latest episode of Nutrition Business Today, host Tom  Aarts and his guests pick apart this surge of weight loss supplements, that followed the recent 'Ozempic craze'.  

Coming all the way from New Zealand, six-time CEO  Sarah Kennedy and scientist lecturer at the University of Aukland, Dr. Ed Walker cut through the noise on natural products in this category and what claims have the science to back them up

Ozempic, just one of the pharmaceutical semaglutide injectables developed for diabetes, has stormed the media with its effectiveness when it comes to weight loss and management. But is there cause for concern? Are some users unable to withstand the side effects, or perhaps they are not comfortable with injections?  Regardless, consumers are looking for natural alternatives and Calocurb's patented delivery of the main ingredient, Amerasate, is the only natural GLP-1 agonist on the market. With a $20 million research investment from the NZ government, Calocurb has the science to solidify these claims. Join us as we discuss what it takes from a business and science perspective to enter this volatile category.
