Doctors Warn of Dangers from Weight-Loss Jabs Experts claim popular injections cause muscle loss and severe stomach issues.
Hidden Health Risks
Doctors Paul Barrington Chell and Monique Hope-Ross have raised major concerns about fat jabs. Their new book warns that drugs like Wegovy can be dangerous.
People often regain all lost weight within 18 months of stopping. However, they usually regain fat instead of muscle.
Problems in the Stomach
The jabs work by slowing down how the stomach empties. This can cause food to rot inside the body for hours.
“People complain of sulphur burps because they’ve got this composting in their stomach.”
One doctor described the stomach as looking like a rubbish tip full of sludge.
Muscle and Bone Loss
The injections can cause 25 to 60 per cent of weight loss to come from muscle. This leads to a haggard look often called “Ozempic face.”
“All the various facial muscles are starting to deplete. They’ve got this cancerous look.”
Users also face lower bone density. This increases the risk of fractures and falls later in life.
Serious Side Effects
Some users have reported rare blindness or permanent stomach paralysis. Famous users like Robbie Williams and Stephen Fry have shared their bad experiences.
Also, new studies link these drugs to higher risks of depression and anxiety. Finally, the doctors suggest a low-carb diet and fasting instead of using injections.
