[quote=Anonymous]I don't use GLP for all the reasons cited by others, plus the still uncertain long-term impacts. More studies are starting to come out about potential side effects as well as some potential risks of the less expensive compounded drugs despite coming through doctors' prescriptions. Regardless of the fact these drugs have been around for decades, they have not been used by such a broad spectrum of the population with such broad differences in physical situations. So those longer-term studies that may be more applicable have not yet been done. I can't deny that it's tempting; but I have hypothyroidism, non-alcoholic fatty liver, pre-diabetes, tendon/ligament issues. I'm not interested in potentially worsening other issues or causing other complications. Additionally, I'm more likely to keep trying to eat better and to stay/become more active if I don't have the safety net of knowing my drug will keep my weight down. In the end, I think that's better for my overall health.[/quote]
