In November my doc put me on Jardience to help control my diabetes, and it was working very well. I was able to cut my insulin usage in half scale-wise, but also my urge to snack was way down further reducing my need for insulin. On December 23rd I had a complete reversal... of my digestive tract. I was throwing up and couldn't even hold down water. This persisted for about 5 days, until I was able to tolerate half a slice of peanut butter toast and a few sips of coffee. My gf's sister had had a similarly bad reaction to Ozempic earlier this year and her boyfriend recently ended up in the hospital with a ruptured ulcer in his stomach (also on Ozempic).

Purely anecdotal but Mike Israetel had some arguments for waaaay lower doses than what is prescribed. Talk to your doctor of course. I think this might be be the video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=matVhd7k25w
