    semaglutid abuser celebrities

    Sorry is this a thing or just a joke? I have little knowledge of either fitness pharmaceuticals or celebrity news, but my understanding was that low abuse potential was a standout feature of the new peptides?

      I think it’s because they’re using it for aesthetics and not just health improvement.

      Getting healthy and getting skinny aren’t the same.

        Fair enough, though if dysmorphia is the only litmus, a gym habit could be construed as abuse, so I assume there’s something more implied here — e.g., exceeding clinical guidelines for eating disorder enablement (if the peptide is even capable of that, which I don’t know).
