A new research study is coming out of Sweden! “a large national study from Sweden found that certain medications commonly prescribed for diabetes and weight loss — specifically GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy — may also help reduce the risk of worsening mental illness in people with anxiety or depression.

The findings, published in the April issue of The Lancet PsychiatryTrusted Source, offer hope for dual benefits in treating both metabolic and mental health issues. While promising, the researchers caution that further clinical trials are needed.”

Would you try GLP-1 for your metabolic and mental health?

Women Doctors Rock! I presented to my SHEroes!
Denise Wynne Baker, President of the Medical Society of Eastern Pennsylvania was the first real doctor that I met and the prettiest pediatrician around. Dr. Susan
