Ozempic: Magic Pill or Devil’s Bargain?

Piers Morgan Uncensored
About this episode

Ozempic has fast become the buzzword for dramatic weight loss, and considering the results users have been reporting, it’s easy to see why. To discuss the supposed miracle drug, Piers Morgan has assembled an all-star panel of doctors and patients, including; Journalist and author Johann Hari, 'The Fasting Doctor' Dr Jason Fung, Professor of Medicine Dr Marc Siegel, 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' star and author Jackie Goldschneider and 'Shahs of Sunset' star Golnesa Gharachedaghi.


Johann explains to Piers that Ozempic has been an excellent weight loss solution for him, while Jason and Marc explain that while the drug works, it’s not right for everyone. Jackie expresses her fear for those with eating disorders and Golnesa gives a counterpoint, explaining that semaglutide helped her deal with weight gain from steroid treatment.
