And a decent number of those Ozempic patients are becoming plastic surgery patients—getting a nip, a tuck, or even a full-body lift to address the other changes, like excess skin, that can come with rapid weight loss. About 10 to 15 percent—or “one person per day”—of the people walking into his Beverly Hills practice have taken a semaglutide like Ozempic for weight loss, says Jason Diamond, MD, FACS, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon.

Strokes are caused by limited blood flow to the brain. Described as a cardiovascular disease, strokes result from a clogged or blocked blood vessel that leads to a lack of oxygen. Around 800,000 individuals have a stroke each year in the United States. The most common type of stroke is referred to as ischemic, which occurs when blood is occluded from a clot or narrow blood vessel. If the brain has low blood exposure, it limits the oxygen and nutrients the brain needs. As a result, brain cells begin to die, and a stroke occurs.

Strokes Have a Lasting Effect on Immune Cells

Harris also wants to provide the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and state attorneys general with the authority to impose stiff penalties on corporations that violate such a ban.
