^{Published on 2025-01-20 15:23:19 - MSN}

The use of weight-loss jabs may be associated with wider health benefits including lower risk of stroke and dementia, a study has suggested. The research, published in the scientific journal Nature Medicine,

The article from MSN discusses a study suggesting that weight loss injections, specifically those containing semaglutide like Wegovy, could offer broader health benefits beyond just weight reduction. The study, presented at the European Congress on Obesity, indicates that these medications might reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes by 20% in overweight or obese individuals, even if they do not have diabetes. This finding is based on a large-scale trial involving over 17,000 participants, which showed that semaglutide not only helps in weight loss but also significantly lowers cardiovascular risks. The research highlights the potential of these drugs to improve overall health outcomes, suggesting they could play a role in preventive healthcare for a wider population. However, the article also notes that these findings need further validation through additional research.
