My pharmacy in Letchworth featured recently in a BBC new article which began with: A community pharmacy is encouraging patients to make changes to their diet and lifestyle before turning to medication for many preventable diseases. Graham Phillips, who owns the Letchworth Pharmacy in the Hertfordshire garden city, has won several awards for his programme, which helps people prevent or reverse diabetes and obesity. He said he wants to put an end to what he calls an over-reliance on drugs for conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity and depression. The independently-owned pharmacy won Community Pharmacy of the Year in 2024 for its innovative ways to support patients. You can find the full article here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c70lxd6kp9ko If you are looking to optimise the undoubted benefits of GLP-1s, but minimise the side affects, minimise the costs and you don't want to be trapped between shelling out £400 per month or regaining all the weight you lost, I'm here to help. Tell me what you need!

I've been doing a deep dive. We know from the clinical trials that the so-called "fat jabs" are remarkably effective in the short term weight loss. Ditto we know that the weight piles back on rapidly when you stop using them. So of course Big Pharma says we should be on them for life. But here's the best evidence I can find for there long-term effectiveness in the real world: For every 100 adults with overweight/obesity who start a GLP-1/GIP agent, perhaps 20–30 will still have clinically significant maintained weight loss at 2 years, around 10–15 at 5 years, and probably fewer than 10 at 10 years under current real-world conditions. Its a bit of an extrapolation because there are NO long-term studies but the bottom line is that only 1 in 10 people benefit in 10 years. WHY? Because, over time, most people stop using them for a whole variety of reasons. I'll leave you to draw your own conclusion about the effectiveness after 20, 30 or maybe 50 years!!
