Mia Khalifa has admitted to using Ozempic, a prescription drug used to manage blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes, for weight loss.
In recent years, Ozempic has become increasingly popular as a weight-loss drug among celebrities and influencers. Stars such as Elon Musk, Kim Kardashian, Amy Schumer, and Tracy Morgan have stepped forward to share their experiences with the drug, sparking wider public interest.
On April 20, Khalifa took to Instagram to promote her OnlyFans account. The image showed her wearing a bikini and holding her pet dog, with gold jewelry draped across her body. In the caption, she wrote that her products were “available in GREEN.”
The post caught the attention of an Instagram user, who expressed admiration for Khalifa’s body and asked how she had achieved it. Khalifa responded candidly, stating: “Baby I bought my t*** and I’m on Ozempic, I can tell you exactly what it costs.”
Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, which is a molecule that acts as a GLP-1 agonist. GLP-1 is a naturally occurring human hormone that plays an important role in regulating appetite and blood sugar levels. By mimicking the structure of GLP-1, semaglutide activates its receptors and helps to restore feelings of fullness in patients with obesity.
Studies have shown that Ozempic is effective in helping people lose weight and improve their overall health. Medical weight loss doctor Sue Decotiis believes that the drug’s popularity is justified due to its effectiveness. “This is the first time just about everybody has gotten results from a medication like this,” she said. “It got incredible press for that reason, and it just took off because we obviously have a lot of obesity in this country.”
However, it is important to note that Ozempic is a prescription drug and should only be taken under the supervision of a doctor. The drug can cause side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. It is also important to remember that Ozempic is not a magic bullet for weight loss. It should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program.
