Weight gain and the desire to lose weight is top of mind for MANY women, especially midlife women. Ozempic in addition to other drugs like it has been very popular in the media and doctors' offices these days.
And given my weight management journey, the chatter definitely piqued my interest which is why I invited Dr. Disha Narang to the podcast.
In this episode, Dr. Narang shares the truth about Ozempic and other similar medications and their role in midlife health; changing the narrative and language when we talk about obesity and weight; and weight management strategies.
