WDDTY Health Bites: Hidden dangers of Wegovy pills

People who don't like needles are starting to pop wigovi and ozempic weight loss pills instead,

but the medication comes with a hidden danger. The pills contain salcoprosate sodium, snack,

which allows the body to absorb their active ingredient, semi-glutide, but snack

interferes with the gut and kick starts inflammatory processes that could result in diabetes

and heart disease. These worrying reactions started within just three weeks of taking the weight

loss pills. Researchers from Adelaide University have discovered, although up to now,

they've only seen the problems in animal studies, and so they can't be sure they'd see a similar

response in people. Nonetheless, snack, which prevents semi-glutide from being broken down by

stomach enzymes so it can pass into the bloodstream, seems to trigger a cascade of worrying

effects. The researchers saw a decline in beneficial gut bacteria that break down dietary fiber,

lower levels of short-chain fatty acids which support the gut lining and help control inflammation,

increased levels of inflammatory markers in the blood, and a reduction in a protein in the brain

that helps cognition. The first wigovi pills were approved last year and are expected to be

less expensive and easier to manage than the injectable version.
