Al-Marsad Newspaper: Consultant of Obesity and Family Medicine, Dr. Saleh Al-Rajhi, revealed the benefits of “Ozumbek” needles, and the effect they have on the body.
“These needles do not reduce weight, but they reduce the central appetite in the brain,” Al-Rajhi said, during a telephone interview via Al-Ekhbariya channel.
He added: “The movement of the stomach and intestines slows down, and the duration of digestion is instead of 4 hours, it becomes 6 to 8 hours, and the movement of the digestive system is very slow.”
He continued, “People who take multiple medications must follow up with a doctor, because this affects the presence of the drug in the blood. Its entry into the stomach and its exit very slowly affects that.”
He concluded his speech: “Patients who suffer from kidney problems and are taking medications for them, must carry out medical follow-up, and ensure that the kidneys are healthy before starting treatment.”
