While Ozempic helps in weight loss, it is formally approved only for the treatment of diabetes and should not be consumed as a weight loss medication.

One is by affecting the hunger spots in our brain, specifically, in the hypothalamus which further reduces hunger, cravings and the appetite of our body. “The main and active ingredient in Ozempic, which is known as semaglutide, is an FDA-approved substance which is used at higher doses for treating individuals that are obese, who have problems with obesity or any other weight-related medical problems,” shares Dr Yarlagadda.

We have nominees from every corner of Dublin." However, the cast of Martin McDonagh's film still seemed to enjoy themselves amongst the festivities last night.

Throughout the night, Kimmel made other quips including, "Please put your hands together and then keep them to yourself," and "At this point in the show, it kind of makes you miss the slapping a little bit, right?"
