You're still not providing any sort of claim as to what actual negative side effects you are concerned about, so I don't really know how to have a serious conversation with you.

"Interfering with cellular metabolism" is a meaningless phrase. Please provide some sort of method of action that you are actually concerned about. What is it that it is doing to cells that we should be concerned about? What scientific evidence is there that this action is unhealthy?

I'm unfortunately expecting this getting worse with massive adoption of the drug but we can start with "Risk of Suicidal Thoughts and thoughts of self-harm with medicines known as GLP-1 receptor agonists,1 including Ozempic (semaglutide), Saxenda (liraglutide) and Wegovy (semaglutide)" - https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/ema-statement-ongoing-revi...

By the way - why are you so eager to promote this drug - can you please declare any conflict of interests?
