Are cystic fibrosis patients hooked on Trikafta? Are people with high blood pressure hooked on ace inhibitors? Or are they taking a medication to control their symptoms and improve their health?
Technically you don't need to take a drug to control your weight, and you could do it all naturally (although this is also debatable, given genetics). However, the reality is that most obese people don't have the time, money, circumstance, genetics or willpower to control their weight themselves. Ozempic is a shortcut to better health outcomes in these patients, why shouldn't they take it?
