Warning: Illegal weight-loss injections are being sold on the black market in Israel
Published
In Israel, peptides are being sold on the black market. These are substances that are administered by injection or taken orally. The substances are marketed for weight loss, muscle development, and skin rejuvenation. However, they have not been approved for use in Israel, and they are still in the experimental stage.
According to the warning, using these peptides may damage the liver and kidneys. In addition, they may disrupt blood sugar levels. Because the substances are sold outside official channels, it is difficult to know exactly what they contain and what their dosage is.
The warning emphasizes that the risk is also great for those who think it is a simple and cheap solution. Side effects can appear after a delay, so people who have used such substances should be aware of the risk.
Therefore, it is recommended to avoid purchasing such substances from unofficial sources. Anyone who experiences unusual symptoms after using them should consult a doctor as soon as possible.
