Digital Desk: Busting the Myths Around Weight Loss Medication [Video]

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) – More than 7 in 10 American adults are overweight or have obesity.

Obesity is one of the most common chronic health issues in the U.S. today. It can lead to or exacerbate many other significant physical and mental health challenges, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and depression.

Research shows that 5-10% of body weight loss can improve blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, joint pain, sleep apnea, and other weight-related conditions.

GLP-1 injections are an impactful new tool in the weight loss toolkit when paired with healthy lifestyle habits, such as exercise, improved sleep, and eating nutritious foods.

Dr. Craig Primack, Hims and Hers SVP of Weight Loss, joins Andrew Douglas at the Digital Desk to discuss the impact of obesity on your health and the myths behind weight loss medications.
