Mounjaro against obesity: An endocrinologist reveals the weight at which he recommends the injection

Dr. Cristóbal Morales explains how and when to start with this type of weight loss treatment, as well as the advantages of Ozempic and Mounjaro.

Following the recent controversy in the UK Following the new measure proposed about Mounjaro and the unemployed with obesity, the debate regarding the problems that this disease may pose in the not-so-distant future has intensified with the arrival of this drug. Last Tuesday on the program ‘La Linterna’ by Ángel Expósito, on Cadena Cope, the endocrinologist, and obesity specialist, Cristóbal Morales expressed his thoughts on the current situation about a problem that is already affecting society .

And it is no wonder, since, according to the data, currently a third of adults are obese, and two out of ten are obese. As Expósito explains in his program, this trend could double over the years, even doubling this last statistic. Something terrifying. The main reason for the counter-action in defense of the social rise of obesity lies in the promotion of an active lifestyle since this fatal event encourages the spread of all kinds of pathologies.

Although sometimes it may seem ‘easy’ to enjoy good health, there are those who see this act as a situation of boredom and despair.

It is important to highlight the relationship between mental health and obesity, since the mere fact of having a constant struggle with the mirror directly affects our thoughts, leading to an obsession. Therefore, tact when dealing with these types of issues is decisive in their subsequent solution.

When is it advisable to use this type of injection?

” A body mass index of over 27 and a disease associated with obesity, but always associated with a healthy lifestyle,” explains Dr. Morales. In a similar way to a diet routine, its application is useless if you do not avoid a sedentary lifestyle, the driving force of obesity. Experts attribute the same importance to carrying out a significant amount of physical activity as to having a healthy diet.

These health problems are causing a breakdown in the labor system, hence the British reaction to this dispute, so if this rise continues, it may be implemented in the national territory in the next few years. The same is true for public health institutions, that is, this issue affects the fundamental pillars of our society and must be dealt with from a position of security and support.

How effective is this treatment?

Although the effectiveness of these drugs is questionable, science explains why they are so effective. ” We realized that there was a positive effect on weight loss because it reduces appetite at the level of brain hunger, directly in the hypothalamus, ” the expert explained in the radio interview. In addition, according to the data collected from the studies that have been carried out, a decrease in heart attacks in patients has also been proven. However, it is necessary to take into account the cases in which it should be applied and when.
