negative side effects are: reduction of muscle mass.. I’m supposed to be doing weightlifting exercises, but I haven’t done much of that.

About B-12: the drug I’m on is a compounded tirzepatide with a B-12 supplement. Tirzepatide is the active ingrediant in Zepbound and Mounjaro. It Operates on two hormones while the semiglutides (Ozempic) just operate on one.

positive results: those mentioned plus it is supposed to reduce inflammation. I don’t have inflammation that is more than the normal amount for someone of my age, so I haven’t noticed any positive effects of that, but Internet chatter has several people noticing their aches and pains are greatly reduced or gone.
I do not know what drug you are taking but you would be wise to see what it depletes from your body. BTW inflammation is not normal at any age.

A few years ago my DH had complete kidney failure and he decided to take all the drugs they were pushing on him. So, I researched what each drug depleted from his body and what (organic) foods would replenish. He was told that he is the only person that had a full recovery from a situation such as his. Coincidence, I don’t think so. Food is medicine. Also, most drugs deplete something…..
