In an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, the singer and talk show presenter discussed the problem with actress Whoopi Goldberg, who had also lost a significant amount of weight following therapy.
The drug was first intended to treat diabetes; by decreasing hunger and extending the period of time food remains in the stomach, it causes weight reduction.
Goldberg, 68, claimed to have “lost almost two people” in weight by “doing that wonderful shot that works for folks that need some help” during her appearance on the show. She has previously discussed taking Mounjaro, a different diabetes medication that is licensed for weight loss.
In response, 42-year-old Clarkson related her personal experience: “I was terrified of my doctor, so I said no, even though he followed me for over two years. I already have thyroid issues,” the woman remarked. Everyone believes that Ozempic. It’s not.
