Ozempic vs. The Carnivore Diet: Dr. Shawn Baker on GLP-1 Agonist Drugs, Healthy Meats & Bug Burgers – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 308

While breakthrough drugs Ozempic and Mounjaro have been celebrated as weight loss miracles, many of their users report severe side effects like hair loss, paralysis, and – according to a recent lawsuit – “projectile vomiting unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.”

“Oddly, steak doesn’t paralyze the stomach!” Dr. Shawn Baker tweeted in response.

Is an almost-all meat diet a safer and healthier weight-loss alternative? Can modern “bug protein” burgers compare to the nutrition found in real meat? Dr. Baker discusses LIVE and joins Dr. Drew to answer your calls.

Dr. Shawn Baker is an orthopedic surgeon, bestselling author of “The Carnivore Diet” and a cofounder of Revero. He is widely known as a leading authority on treating disease through medical nutritional therapy.
