Recent advances in weight loss treatments have introduced a new generation of drugs that offer promising results.
00:08
These include GLP analogues like Lyra Glutide and Serma Glutide,
00:14
which mimic a natural hormone to promote fullness and facilitate weight loss.
00:21
Serma Glutide in particular has gained attention for its effectiveness,
00:25
with clinical trials showing an average weight loss of 16% over 68 weeks.
00:32
The latest addition is TerziPatai, targeting both the GLP-1 receptor and the glucagon receptor,
00:40
leading to an average weight loss of 20.9% at higher doses after 72 weeks.
00:48
These drugs represent a significant leap forward in obesity treatments,
00:52
offering hope that being overweight could indeed become a thing of the past.
00:57
The question is, however, whether the British public is ready to try these new treatments.
