The video discusses the function of certain medications originally prescribed for diabetes that help regulate blood sugar and promote feelings of fullness.

I mean, what is the function of these drugs? Correct, correct. So, really, they're quieting the food noise, that's kind of like a side effect in a sense, but really what they're doing is they're helping, because they were started, I mean, they were initially prescribed for people with diabetes, that's where these medications were developed for, and the goal was to help regulate blood sugar. And so that's essentially what these medications are doing is helping regulate blood sugar. But when it's released, so it says natural chemical, it's naturally released after people eat to kind of help with satiety or feelings of fullness or feeling satisfied after you eat. This medication, because it only stays around, the natural one stays around, like, ten seconds after you eat. Like, it stays around very short. But this is doing that same thing that natural chemical does, but it's staying around again. It stays around for about a week once a day, that's why you take the shot once a week. And so it's just helping you feel fuller and releasing that kind of satiety feeling after you eat. And so it's helping, essentially, increase that caloric deficit because now, instead of eating, like, the cheeseburger, the fries, the, I don't know, whatever you want to eat, All of a sudden, you eat half the cheeseburger, like, I feel full because I feel satisfied with what I eat and my stomach is, like, holding the food in there longer as opposed to, like, keeping pushing it out. And so, that's why you're just, it's helping you create that caloric deficit.
