New Study Gives More Insight on How Ozempic Use Affects Muscle Health

Ozempic, originally developed for Type 2 diabetes, is now widely used for weight loss, but new research shows serious effects on muscle and organ health
A study in Cell Metabolism found Ozempic reduces lean mass by around 10% in mice, with the liver shrinking nearly 50%, raising concerns about long-term organ function.

Researchers observed a mismatch between muscle size and strength, with some muscles staying the same size but losing power, suggesting potential frailty risk and reduced physical performance in animal models — effects requiring confirmation in human clinical trials.

Older adults may face a higher risk, as age-related weakness combined with potential drug-related declines in strength may undermine independence, mobility, and overall longevity.

Long-term use of Ozempic and similar GLP-1 drugs is also associated with adverse side effects like dental issues, eye damage, mental health risks, and possible weight regain following discontinuation.

The medicalisation of animal health

Animal Health

Why are pets and livestock increasingly developing the same chronic diseases as humans—obesity, diabetes, cancer and metabolic dysfunction? In this issue, we investigate the growing medicalisation of animal health, from longevity drugs and self-amplifying RNA vaccines to lab-grown pet food and the expanding WHO One Health agenda. This isn’t about medical progress. It’s about how the same forces driving the chronic disease epidemic in humans are now sweeping across the animal world because pharma has identified it as a lucrative growth market for the coming decade. When it comes to livestock, there’s no consideration of the effects on the food chain.

We also look at one of the most overlooked, but most powerful aspects, to healthy ageing: purpose. New research suggests that having a strong sense of meaning in life may help protect against cognitive decline, chronic disease and even premature death.

Why Your Histamine Reactions May Trace To Glyphosate

Histimine Intolerance and Glyphosate

Histamine intolerance and glyphosate’s role in MCAS — most doctors have never connected these dots — but the research is catching up fast.

Dr. Stephanie Seneff, senior research scientist at MIT and one of the world’s leading experts on glyphosate’s biological effects, sits down to explore the emerging connection between glyphosate exposure, histamine intolerance, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome — a condition that is being diagnosed at dramatically increasing rates and leaves many patients searching for answers for years.

The connection runs deeper than most people realize. Glyphosate disrupts the gut microbiome, impairs detoxification pathways, and interferes with the body’s ability to break down histamine — creating the conditions for chronic inflammatory responses that show up as food sensitivities, allergic reactions, skin issues, neurological symptoms, and more.

If you or someone you love has been dealing with unexplained reactions, chronic inflammation, or a diagnosis of MCAS or histamine intolerance — this conversation is essential listening.

Is Glyphosate Fueling Celiac, Insomnia and Mood Disorders?

Jeffrey Smith On Glyphosate

If you’ve been struggling with celiac symptoms, insomnia, anxiety, or depression — and haven’t found satisfying answers — this presentation from Jeffrey Smith may be the missing piece.

At a recent conference, Jeffrey walked through the research connecting glyphosate exposure to some of the most common and frustrating health complaints of our time. The mechanism is specific and important: glyphosate disrupts the body’s ability to synthesize key amino acids — the building blocks of serotonin, melatonin, and dopamine. When those pathways are impaired, the downstream effects show up as digestive disorders, sleep disruption, mood instability, and more.

The data on wheat is particularly striking. Glyphosate is routinely sprayed on wheat and legumes as a pre-harvest desiccant — meaning it is applied directly to the crop shortly before it is harvested and eaten. The correlation between glyphosate use on wheat and the rise in celiac disease is one of the most compelling patterns in the research. Plus, a survey of people who reduced their glyphosate exposure reported improvements in both sleep and mood.

“Don’t ever become a pessimist… a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events.” – Robert A. Heinlein, Writer (1907 – 1988)
