The new weight loss jab trick the A-listers love... and it doesn't just keep the weight off, there's a raft of other health benefits and NO side effects

Daily Mail  

When I began Ozempic, in April 2023, I was in the doldrums of perimenopause, with high cholesterol, prediabetic blood sugar levels, and a stone and a half of excess weight giving me crippling back pain. A friend told Olivia Falcon about the microdosing trick when taking Mounjaro to maintain weight loss Then a friend suggested the cleverest thing to do was not to come off Mounjaro but to microdose it, as there is growing evidence from America – where these medications are being used off-licence beyond their approved indications for diabetes and obesity – for a raft of other health benefits. Three months after stopping weight-loss jabs, our writer is no longer prediabetic, has lost one and a half stone and feels more energised and confident Dr Denning says she is considering Mounjaro microdosing for patients with drink problems, as there is evidence semaglutides help curb alcohol cravings. She also believes microdosing could effectively lower blood sugars in prediabetic patients, reducing long-term risk of heart disease and possibly dementia, as high blood sugar causes inflammation and this may damage brain cells. ‘There is more interest from slim individuals, particularly women, who are exploring it for broader health benefits,’ says Dr Tamsin Lewis, lead Longevity doctor of Solice, a Mayfair-based medical service for the super rich.
