Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi and Chloe Moris, a Registered Dietitian on the WellBeings Africa advisory panel, discuss Ozempic for weight loss. Ozempic (semaglutide) is a medication originally for type 2 diabetes that has shown significant weight loss effects, with users losing up to 15% of body weight in studies. It works by mimicking a hormone that reduces appetite and slows digestion, helping control hunger. In summary, Ozempic can be effective for weight loss but should be used carefully with professional advice, and lifestyle changes remain essential for sustainable results. Heart to Heart
