    Ozempic: Alternatives, Side Effects, and Benefits | Dr. Michael Greger
    Oct 29 2024
    Millions are searching for an alternative to Ozempic. Why? Besides cost being an issue, the side effects can be unbearable. Most people only stay on the weight loss drug for two months before stopping. For all the good it does for weight loss, there are a ton of unwanted side effects, including "O face." The good news is that there are natural alternatives to weight-loss drugs that carry none of the same sometimes embarrassing or painful side effects. Dr. Michael Greger joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to talk about the good and bad of Ozempic and other weight loss drugs. Dr. Greger is the author of Ozempic: Risks, Benefits, and Natural Alternatives to GLP-1 Weight-Loss Drugs. Chuck offers his point of view as someone who has lost nearly 300 pounds and kept it off for over 15 years. In This Conversation: - The side effects of Ozempic - Does Ozempic work for weight loss? - Do the risks of Ozempic outweigh the rewards? - How much does Ozempic cost? - How long does Ozempic work? - What are alternatives for Ozempic and weight-loss drugs? — — SHOW LINKS — — Dr. Michael Greger Ozempic Book: https://nutritionfacts.org/book/ozempic/ Website: https://www.nutritionfacts.org Instagram: https://instagram.com/nutrition_facts_org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NutritionFacts.org X: https://twitter.com/nutrition_facts — — — Free Athlete Nutrition E-Book https://www.pcrm.org/athlete — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip — — THIS IS US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexamroompodcast — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook X: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org X: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/PCRM Jobs: https://www.pcrm.org/careers — — SUBSCRIBE & SHARE — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: https://apple.co/2JXBkpy​​ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2pMLoY3 Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.

  • Sickness With a Side of Fries: The SAD State of U.S. Hospitals | Dr. Roxanne Becker

    Sickness With a Side of Fries: The SAD State of U.S. Hospitals | Dr. Roxanne Becker
    Oct 24 2024

    Americans say there is no place for the likes of McDonald's and Chick-fil-A in hospitals.

    The giants of fast food are serving greasy, fatty, artery-clogging foods in the same building where patients are receiving artery-opening stents and pacemakers. Often these lifesaving surgeries are just a floor or two above where the unhealthy combo meals are being served up.

    In a way it's like having an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting above a bar. It just doesn't make sense.

    Eating fast food four times a week may increase heart disease risk by 80%, according to one study.

    So, why is it happening?

    Dr. Roxanne Becker joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to talk about the findings of the hospital survey that revealed mounting frustrations with the state of hospital food.
