GLP-1s Causing Long-Forgotten Disease?

GLP-1 drugs are making money faster than Big Pharma can count it.

Americans are lining up to take the shots or tablets for everything from diabetes to weight loss.

But as the drug companies prepare to rake in $100 BILLION in GLP-1 sales this year, the cracks are starting to show…

Now, medical researchers are sounding the alarm that GLP-1 drugs may have led to the resurrection of a disease that’s been practically forgotten by modern medicine.

And before you or anyone you love fills a GLP-1 prescription, you need to hear the truth.

Reports are now surfacing of GLP-1 users being diagnosed with scurvy.

Yep, scurvy… that serious (and sometimes fatal) vitamin C deficiency we normally associate with pirates and sailors.

Looks like we’re all passengers on the S.S. Ozempic now…

Now, let’s be clear… Scurvy basically doesn’t exist in the developed world, and hasn’t for some time. But, somehow, GLP-1s found a way to bring it back.

So what’s the problem?

Well, millions of patients are being given these drugs, which sharply curtail your appetite, without any nutritional advice or warnings about nutrient deficiencies.

Researchers from the University of Cambridge in England have been sounding the alarm on this. As they point out, there’s been lots of research on GLP-1s for losing weight – but very little research on the problems like vitamin, mineral, and protein deficiencies they might cause.

I can promise you that this is going to be an enormous problem in America. Because most American doctors actually don’t know much about nutrition and aren’t really comfortable offering advice.

That sounds crazy… but it’s true.

For example, in a 2018 study of doctors at New York University Langone Health, only 13.5% of doctors felt adequately trained to discuss nutrition with patients.

I’m not kidding… and I’m not surprised. Medical education today spends VERY little time on nutrition, even though it has the single greatest impact on our health.

If you’re considering taking a GLP-1… or are already taking one… you have to insist on nutritional support. Hire a nutritionist if your doctor isn’t up to the job.

But don’t ever go it alone. Because these drugs don’t just shed pounds… they can shed nutrients essential for your health, too.
