  Why almost 80% of my patients are quietly quitting Ozempic 17.09.2026 18min

  Are weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Tirzepatide truly miracle cures? In this in-depth video, Dr. Jason Fung breaks past the media hype to examine real-world data, including cohort studies from JAMA and Blue Cross Blue Shield (BHI), revealing a side of modern weight-loss treatments that few are talking about.While clinical trials paint a glowing picture, real-world statistics tell a different story: a massive percentage of patients—ranging from 60% to nearly 80%—stop taking these medications within one to two years. But why are millions of people walking away from a drug that promised them results?Dr. Jason Fung uncovers the three major hidden problems with modern obesity drugs that explain why patients ultimately throw in the towel. From the shocking drop-off in long-term persistence and the subtle erosion of life’s greatest daily pleasures to the frustrating reality that these drugs simply stop working over time, this video exposes the true cost of GLP-1 therapy.📌 In This Video, You Will Discover:● The Real-World Data: Why up to 80% of patients discontinue Ozempic and similar GLP-1 agonists despite having insurance coverage.● The Quality of Life Dilemma: How suppressing appetite often strips away the joy of eating, socializing, and celebrating milestones.● The Plateau Effect: Why weight loss quickly halts after 6 to 9 months as the body adapts and energy expenditure decreases.● The Long-Term Trap: Why simply telling patients to "take it forever" ignores human nature, clinical economics, and patient well-being.Whether you are considering these medications, currently on a weight-loss journey, or looking for sustainable, natural alternatives to health and fasting, this analysis provides the crucial insights you need.🔔 Subscribe to the channel for more science-backed health insights: https://www.youtube.com/@DrJasonFung▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⏱️ Video Chapters (Timestamps): 00:00 The 3 Big Problems With Ozempic00:32 Ozempic and the History of Weight Loss Drugs01:55 Why Weight Loss Drugs Often Fail Long-Term02:48 Ozempic: Benefits, Risks and the Weight Loss Hype03:22 Why People Stop Taking Ozempic04:01 What Happens When You Stop Ozempic?04:53 Ozempic Discontinuation: 54% Stop Within One Year05:30 Real-World GLP-1 Weight Loss Drug Data06:29 Why People Really Stop Taking Ozempic07:00 How Ozempic Changes Hunger and Food Pleasure08:06 “Life Just Goes Beige” — The Hidden Cost of Ozempic08:35 Ozempic and Quality of Life09:00 Obesity Drugs, Side Effects and Quality of Life10:18 Why Ozempic May Stop Working Over Time11:01 Ozempic, Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Weight Loss Plateau11:50 Why Weight Loss Plateaus After 6–12 Months12:42 The Real Problem With Ozempic13:31 The 3 Major Problems With Ozempic Explained14:01 Is Ozempic Worth It?

  As good as Ozempic? Tools for Managing Hunger 17.09.2026 11min

  Check out www.drinkaeira.com. I don't own any part of the company or get paid commission. Neither is this a sponsored video. Most people believe that counting calories is the key to weight loss, but that is a major misconception. The real secret to lasting weight loss isn't about calories—it's about controlling hunger. Drugs like Ozempic and GLP-1 agonists have proven this by targeting appetite, but you don't need medication to achieve these results.In this video, I break down the science of hunger management and share 3 powerful natural tools to help you suppress appetite and extend your fasting window comfortably. We discuss the hormonal impact of protein, the metabolic benefits of green tea, and the thermic effect of ginger.I also introduce a new product line called Aeira, which I helped develop to make bone broth and fasting teas more accessible and effective for everyone. Finally, you'll hear the inspiring story of Heather, a nurse practitioner who transformed her health by understanding that "hunger is a liar" and learning to control it.In this video, you will learn: ✅ The Calorie Myth: Why focusing on calories fails and why hunger is the root cause of overeating. ✅ Bone Broth Benefits: Why traditional bone broth works for satiety and why bouillon cubes are not a valid substitute. ✅ Green Tea Science: How catechins and caffeine in green tea improve metabolic rate and reduce hunger. ✅ The Power of Ginger: New research showing how ginger and herbal teas increase the thermic effect of food and promote fullness. ✅ Real Success Story: How Heather used these exact tools to overcome lifelong obesity.📘 PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK: "The Hunger Code" (Coming March 2026) This book is a direct sequel to The Obesity Code and dives deep into hunger management and resetting your body's fat thermostat.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⏱️ Chapters / Timestamps⏳ Video Chapters: 00:00 - Intro: Why Calories Don't Matter (Hunger Does) 00:58 - Tool #1: The Power of Bone Broth for Satiety 01:39 - Introducing Aeira: A Better Way to Drink Bone Broth 02:16 - Why Bouillon Cubes Are NOT the Same 03:17 - Tool #2: Green Tea & Metabolic Rate 04:03 - The Science of Marigold & Chlorogenic Acid 04:27 - Tool #3: Herbal Tea (Ginger & Licorice Root) 04:50 - Study: How Ginger Reduces Hunger & Increases Fullness 06:00 - The Root Cause: Hunger Drives Eating Behavior 06:20 - Bonus Tip: Water & Seltzer 06:27 - Heather’s Transformation: From "Butterball" to Fasting Coach============================= 📌 BOOKS: 👉 The Obesity Code - Reviewing underlying physiology of weight loss and how low carb diets and fasting can help. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1771641258?... 👉 The Diabetes Code - Reviewing how type 2 diabetes is a reversible disease and dietary strategies. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0795BLS8D?... 👉 The Cancer Code - Scientific exploration of how cancer develops - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0062894005?... 📌 Amazon: 👉 USA - https://www.amazon.com/shop/jasonfung 👉 Canada - https://www.amazon.ca/shop/jasonfung ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📌 Please visit our :- 🔹 Website - https://www.doctorjasonfung.com 🔹 Blog- / drjasonfung 🔹 Community- https://www.thefastingmethod.com 🔹 Facebook - / jason.fung.313 🔹 Instagram - / drjasonfung 🔹 Twitter - / drjasonfung ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📌 YouTube Medical Lectures (for specialist physicians): ▶️ The Roots of the Obesity Epidemic: https: // • The Obesity Epidemic, Explained ▶️ Therapeutic Fasting - The Two Compartment Problem:https: // • Fasting and Weight Loss - Solving the... ▶️ Does Calorie Counting work?: • Why Calorie Counting rarely leads to ... ▶️ Two Big Lies of Type 2 Diabetes: • Two Big Lies about Type 2 Diabetes ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ If you liked the video, Please Do Subscribe My Channel 😉😍 Keep Supporting me So I can Continue to pr Learn more about your ad choices.

  The Food Pyramid Lie: Why we got Fat 17.09.2026 11min

  Check out Aeira powdered bone broth for managing hunger during fasting at www.drinkaeira.comFor decades, we were told to follow the Food Pyramid. We were told to eat 6-11 servings of bread and pasta a day and fear dietary fat. We followed the rules. But instead of getting healthier, the world got sicker and more obese. Why?In this video, I expose the truth behind one of the biggest failures in modern nutrition—the Food Pyramid. We explore how the 1977 dietary guidelines, though well-intentioned, were based on shaky science that demonized healthy fats and promoted insulin-spiking carbohydrates.If you’ve ever felt frustrated because you "ate right" according to the guidelines but still gained weight, this video explains exactly why that happened. It’s time to unlearn the old rules and understand how food actually affects your hormones and metabolic health.In this video, you will discover:● ⚠️ The Great Mistake: How the 1977 guidelines accidentally triggered the obesity epidemic.● 🍞 The Carb Trap: Why the base of the old pyramid (grains) is the primary driver of insulin resistance.● 🥑 The Fat Fear: Why we were taught to fear the wrong nutrient and how healthy fats protect your metabolism.● 🥗 The NEW Solution: A science-backed approach to eating that focuses on hormonal balance, not just calorie counting.Drop a comment below: Did you grow up following the Food Pyramid? How has changing your diet impacted your health?

  Is eating saturated fat bad for us? Does eating fat cause obesity? Heart disease? Stroke? How did we become so fat phobic? Are vegetable oils healthy? A critical look at the wealth of scientific data suggests that eating fat (total) and saturated fat might actually protect us from disease.

  Fasting and Weight Loss - Solving the Two-Compartment problem 16.09.2026 43min

  Why intermittent Fasting is a simple solution for weight loss. Body fat is simply a method of storing food energy. When we eat, our body wants to store those calories. When we don't eat (intermittent fasting), our body uses those calories. So, if we want to lose body fat, increase the duration of time that we are not eating.
