Is it true that it's a 'miracle weight-loss pill'?... Experts say one in five people see no effect
The miracle drug, WigoBi, caused a huge commotion...
It doesn't seem to have a completely dramatic effect.
Since reactions vary from person to person, it's better not to rely on it too blindly.
I think the best way to manage health and lose weight is through exercise, diet management, and lifestyle habits.
As the year comes to an end, there are many gatherings again, and dieting becomes difficult.
December to January is also tough, and soon it's Lunar New Year..
It's tough, but keep fighting with your diet!!
GLP-1 receptor agonist obesity treatments such as 'Wegovy' and 'Ozempic' are gaining worldwide popularity, but experts suggest that one in five people may not see any effect, drawing attention.
AP News reported on the 23rd (local time) based on clinical trial results related to the effectiveness of obesity treatment drugs, including expert analysis. Experts analyzed that since countless people worldwide have used this treatment, the proportion of those for whom it is ineffective is about 20%, roughly 1 in 5 people.
In a clinical trial, 10-15% of participants taking GLP-1 receptor agonist-based obesity treatments, including Wegovy, were classified as 'non-responders' because they lost less than 5% of their body weight.
This is because this medication reacts differently in each person.
GLP-1 receptor agonist class obesity treatments increase insulin secretion while decreasing glucagon secretion to lower blood sugar levels. They also act on the brain to suppress appetite and delay food passage through the stomach, helping to maintain a feeling of fullness.
An expert pointed out, "We must keep in mind that different people show different reactions," and "It is difficult to expect uniform results."
A woman in her 30s living in New Mexico, USA, lamented, "It's been a year and a half since I started taking WigoBi, but I have only lost 13 pounds (about 6 kg)."
He is said to have strictly followed other lifestyle habits such as diet management and regular exercise.
A warning about side effects has also been issued.
Another specialist stated, "Some patients may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, and in such cases, the medication should be discontinued."
