00:00I think it could be helpful. I also think that like with those empties in America it could become
00:06yeah quite a problem and people would end up getting prescribed for it when they go to eat it.
00:13So I generally think weight loss jabs in their entirety, I don't think they've been researched
00:18enough to be safe to use for the sort of general public. I think with more research and over time
00:26it might be a better option than doing like a gastric band or something like that. But I think
00:34generally I think you should exhaust the natural remedies first and just being put on a stable diet
00:42and clearing that up first. I don't know I think it's to do it's a case-by-case thing.
00:47For concern to be maybe like addiction like if people become addicted to it
00:50that would end quite unhealthy. Like you go from like one extreme to potentially another extreme.
00:57I feel like it could lead to like massive mental health issues.
