Hi, I'm Marcel Pick. I'm an OB-GYN and a pediatric nurse practitioner, and I've had a medical practice for over 40 years. And I want to tell you why I'm so passionate about talking about these new weight loss drugs. They seem like a really quick fix, and we're all so desperate to get that weight off that we'll try anything. I continue to talk about the side effects, and I also continue to say that I have major concerns about what we're going to find with these weight loss drugs five years down the road in those that have taken them that have to continue to be on them. Because we have no science to support long-term use of these. We do in diabetics, but not in people that are not diabetic. So we go back to why I'm so interested is because I've been there. I came to America when I was 11 and I was thinned from fourth grade to sixth grade. Everybody's on diets and I started dieting too. I ate one meal a day and I still was, you know, compared to their scale weight, over them and I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong. Went away to college and gained some weight. I went to every program known to mankind. Twiggy was in then, so skinny was still in. And I weighed and measured my food and I didn't lose any weight at all. Everyone around me is laughing because they've lost weight on the scale and I haven't and they've been cheating. So I then started looking at if I could figure this out, I was gonna incorporate that into my medical practice. Many, many years of study, many years of understanding. When I wrote my first book, I was using a hormone called HCG in my practice. It was incredible how effective it was because everyone was losing weight. But it's banned in Texas, not FDA approved, and I realized at that time that was not the answer. So I started looking at, are there particular foods that make a difference? Are there particular profiles for our diet that make a difference? I did my genetic profile. and I was low fat, so wonder keto didn't work for me. Then I started realizing that I couldn't do as many grains as somebody on a low fat diet could do. And sure enough, as I exercised more and I started to understand how important sleep was for myself and I got some sleep, I started to get that weight off. Am I ever going to be a skinny mini? No. Am I at times frustrated, you know, and I'm working with myself? Absolutely. But now I can go in my closet and get the clothes that I love to wear. I can go shopping and be happy with being able to go to the store and buy clothes. I don't mind my picture being taken. I'm also aware that I have special occasions that I love to go to and I can see that that's such an important piece of my journey that I can now teach you. Now the problem is the pharmaceutical industry wants you to think that there's a pill for every ill and they want you to be convinced that this is the newest thing on the market that's going to make a difference. Remember that 50% of people that take these weight loss medications feel nauseous. Many of them start to dislike food. And if we think back to our tribal years, why would we ever want to dislike food when that gives us energy? It gives us our ability to have energy during the day and sustenance for the rest of the day going into the evening. These are all really important factors when it comes to this. But also the other part that I want to point out is that the food industry is very aware if they add certain emulsifiers to the food that they're going to be having you have more than one serving. I bet you can't just eat one is the motto for many of these things. So the quality of the food that you eat makes an enormous difference and unfortunately with these weight loss medications it doesn't matter to you what's going on with regards to the food that you're eating because you're just not as hungry you eat less. you start to lose weight. But we also know that 50% of the people lose muscle. So it isn't a one size fits all approach that works. It isn't a quick fix that makes a difference. It is however understanding for yourself are there emotions behind your need to eat? Do you have cravings that might be related to food sensitivities? Are you hungry all the time that might be an issue with ghrelin, which is the hunger hormone that also correlates with our neurotransmitters. So you can see here it's a multifactorial issue. It's not just so simple. And we're starting to see now more and more of the side effects that are coming out, including suicidal ideations in people that have a predisposition to depression. So understanding that I've been where you are, I know what it's like, and there are some natural alternatives that will help with your hunger that that will help with your cravings and take the noise of food away. So I'm here to be on board with you the whole way through this journey and give you solutions that actually work.
Hi, this is Marcel. I want to introduce you to a concept that's just so exciting. So we know that the weight loss medications, semaglutide variety of medications, is very effective at decreasing your interest in food. The problem is that for many of you that you know that there are some side effects and many of you that are watching this are seeing that you tried the medication and you didn't really feel very good on it, but you really wanted to lose that weight. The biggest problem I see in the weight loss industry in general is that so many people are hungry and they have cravings for these particular foods. So I created homeopathic drops that don't have significant side effects with nausea or problems with diarrhea or general GI discomfort. And what they do is they take the noise of food away, they suppress your appetite, and they really allow you the ability to be able to kind of sit back a bit and make some lifestyle changes and change your habits that are going to be the important thing long term.
