How has the weight loss niche changed since Ozempic?

[shattered world]

This was something I've been wondering about for a while.

Weight loss has always been a competitive niche but since the advent of Ozempic, I've wondered if more people have dipped out of the niche.

Anyone know anything about how the niche has changed since all this became popular?

Its probably opened up other options to enter that niche which have no doubt filled up focusing on "weight lifting + (jab brand)" or "lose weight (without jab brand)" etc so you can have a narrow focused niche site or any other kind of keyword or search fitness term + (jab brand) would open up a bunch of options compared to the old "(find a keyword thats not saturated) + lose weight"

It created a new niche or is creating one that’ll be based around fixing yourself due to the side effects of that crap, I bet it’s already out there making people money.

The court cases in America alone around that crap is surreal, something in the region of 2 billion dollars they reckon are sought after in damages.. it’s become a massive case.

The thing with Ozempic is that it's NOT a supplement, it's a drug. You won't get into that. Supplements are easier to get into. No idea about weight loss specifically but there's tons of supplement niches to choose from and they always function alongside actual drugs, procedures, etc.

Eheheh, that's why I say supplements are better... With drugs you need all this infrastructure, you need to pass trials and after that you'll basically butcher these people and end up in court . I'm not saying big pharma companies aren't making money but selling drugs is just next level drama, it's crazy-crazy . I've been on a conference while still in Poland and also the owner of pharmacy chain was complaining that they're basically at a loss with pharmaceutical drugs because of some government rules and they also have availability issues, all kinds of problems, but supplements sell fine and are basically what stops them from going bankrupt. From a patient's perspective... Hmmm, that explains why suddenly pharmacies became fancier herbs shops .

Massively. It drove Weightwatchers to file for bankruptcy last year - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cyvqv247gd7o.amp

It's probably the junk food industry that will have sleepless nights if they start bringing out cheaper generic peptides though.
