Not to be mean, but if your dad needs it to regulate his blood sugar....can't he do that with diet just like someone who wants to lose weight ?
My mum is almost wheel chair bound . She's 84, and she's already lost almost 50kg at the age of 70.
Now she's in a nursing home, she can't control how healthy the food is, and has put on weight since being there .
They just put her on something (I think it's this ), and she's finally losing what she gained since she went in to the home .
Which now means she can at least stand up again long enough to wash herself ,go to the toilet independently and dress herself .
It's given her back quality of life .
I get people shouldn't use it for vanities sake. But some are using it when they are already dieting and it's not working ...and they are at a health crisis.
Diabetes can be controlled by diet - it's just fucking hard . They are now getting evidence that correct diet can reduce diabetes to non detectable levels and get people off insulin and other medications .
Not that anyone should really be taking ozempic unless there's absolutely no other options - it fucks over so many of your bodies systems.
Many who start using can't stop. It screws with their metabolisms and it's a one way street .🤷
