    Can you elaborate? If you’re taking Ozempic for obesity, then in the vast majority of cases there is generally a nutritional deficiency at the heart of your diet — that includes missing nutrients like fiber, or adding anti-nutrients in the realm of added sugar. Unless you have some thyroid issue or are already diabetic, etc., which would require a different sort of intervention.

    In dealing with my mom’s ailments and navigating the medical system, most general doctors don’t know jack shit about nutrition, and there is no mandatory referral to a dietician before prescription for ozempic.
