Yes, semaglutide has beneficial effects in humans as well! Our results in preclinical HFpEF published earlier this months suggested benefit. Very pleased to see that it’s potential in humans without HFpEF. Counting off the days to ESC! Novo Nordisk Aad Withaar #cardioobesity

Frustrerend deze advertentie in LINDAmagazine over afvallen met #Semaglutide (#Ozempic). 1. Het is #medicijn, geen quick-fix 2. Game changer in obesitas 🏥 ☠️ 3. Amper leverbaar vanwege grondstof tekort Linda de Mol volgend nummer tekst en uitleg over dit nieuwe medicijn?

The word is out #ESC2023: in humans with HFpEF Semaglutide also improves Quality of Life and lowers NTproBNP. Proud that our preclinical studies could be confirmed Gamechanger ⭐️ - #cardioobesity is real!! nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Henry Han Mikhail Kosiborod Andreas Gevaert

Weight reduction by #ozempic or #wegovy NOSJournaal. If they would have dig a bit deeper they would have realized it is a DRUG 💊. Quitting this drug without lifestyle changes = weight gain. ✅ breaking a vicious circle ❌ esthetic purposes/ lifelong therapy #doyourhomework
