Medications like Ozempic or Mounjaro have become quite famous for their ability to help loose weight. They are incredible molecules with immunmodulatory and neuromodulatory effects achieving so much more than a better figure. Independent of weight loss they have shown to reduce inflammation and recently, reduce cancer recurrence and metastasis in specific cancers. It is a huge result which has prompted more research and more clinical trials to understand better how we can use these drugs for more than weight loss, although the health benefits in obese patients are already beyond expectation and hope. Take home message: talk to your doctor to put the new clinical data into your personalized perspective. And of course, I am more than happy to assist you in this matter. Dr. Manuela Reisbeck
