Description
The newest class of weight loss drugs (GLP-1s) are complete game-changers in their
potential to reverse obesity and its related diseases, with nearly 50% of Americans
qualifying for the use of these drugs. Already 1 in 8 Americans say they’ve tried a
GLP-1 medication—but with many acquiring their prescription from online pharmacies,
med spas, and general practitioners, they face a huge gap between trying the drug and
achieving their health goals with it long-term.
That’s where The Ozempic Revolution comes in. Dr. Alexandra Sowa, a leading obesity
medicine specialist, will share her expertise on this much-discussed but largely
misunderstood class of medications. Traditional and social media has been flooded with
junk information and stigmatizing headlines about GLP-1s, and in this book Dr. Sowa
digs into all of it—the good, the bad, and the ugly—bringing the science to light.
Having helped thousands of patients achieve weight health, Dr. Sowa knows that
obesity is a complex disease. Few doctors are equipped to provide guidance on the mix
of issues, both physical and emotional, that can complicate maintaining a healthy
weight. A pioneer in the use of GLP-1s, Dr. Sowa emphasizes that they’re not a silver
bullet, and this book takes a comprehensive approach by recommending diet and
