I'm glad you enjoy my little outbursts of sarcasm. It's how I keep myself sane (relatively speaking 🤣).

How much Endotoxin is in Saxenda Liraglutide? I note it contains Propylene Glycol and Phenol.

AUSPAR report at https://www.tga.gov.au/sites/default/files/auspar-victoza.pdf contains the following comment: "There were no outstanding issues regarding

bioavailability, endotoxin content, pen performance, container safety or viral safety" (p. 9).

Here's an interesting experimental finding related to liraglutide's effect on endogenous endotoxin production via the gut microbiota: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9835552/.

Fantastic article! It is truly mind numbing to read the words of so called experts that act as shills for Pharma. I am ordering Dr. Gotzsche’s book…more confirmation that the Pharma game has always been about profit over patient health.

It's wild, isn't it? I looked up Dr Daniel Frank and found his practice website (https://mednorthwest.com/team/) and he seems like a very caring doctor. There are no drug company payments to him listed on the Open Payments website (https://openpaymentsdata.cms.gov/). As far as I'm able to tell, Dr Frank genuinely believes that GLP-1 agonists are a godsend for his overweight and diabetic patients. In a way, this makes me even more concerned about the type of 'education' that doctors are receiving.

You'll love Dr Gotzsche’s book, and while you're at it, grab his other titles: Mammography Screening: Truth, Lies and Controversy, and Deadly Psychiatry and Organised Denial. He's a fearless truth-teller who has been severely punished for his life-saving work.
