Having over 200 million followers in the social media ´platform X has turned tech Billionaire and incoming DOGE director Elon Musk into a man scrutinized in tiny detail by a hating media.
But many times, intimate details are shared by himself, as it was the case yesterday (25), when a noticeably thinner-looking Musk revealed to be using the weight-loss drug Mounjaro.
Musk had previously expressed support for similar drugs as an effective means to curb America’s obesity epidemic.
The revelation came in a social media post with image of himself donning a Santa Claus suit.
New York Post reported:
“Musk dubbed himself ‘Ozempic Santa’ in the X post, noting it’s ‘Like Cocaine Bear, but Santa and Ozempic!’
‘Technically, Mounjaro, but that doesn’t have the same ring to it’, he clarified.”
Mounjaro is part of a class of drugs developed ‘to help people with diabetes regulate their blood glucose and insulin levels’.
But these drugs have increasingly been used to successfully shed weight.
“Musk, 53, noted that he prefers Mounjaro to Ozempic because taking ‘high doses’ of the latter drug made him ‘fart & burp like Barney from the Simpson’s.’
‘Mounjaro seems to have fewer side effects and be more effective’, the incoming head of President-elect Donald Trump’s Department of Governmental Efficiency said.”
