Three out of five anorexia patients at top eating disorders clinic tell docs they've been using weight-loss jabs like Ozempic or Mounjaro - including children as young as SIXTEEN

Sixty per cent of patients at a leading clinic seeking help for eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia are using weight-loss jabs. A growing number of patients with the potentially life-threatening conditions have admitted to doctors during therapy sessions that they are taking Wegovy, Mounjaro or Ozempic to control their weight, says rehab specialist The UKAT Group. Doctors at its Banbury Lodge clinic in Banbury, Oxfordshire, say 28 out of the 48 patients they have treated for eating disorders this year – nearly two-thirds – were using the powerful drugs, which can reduce bodyweight by up to 20 per cent. Some patients were as young as 16, the doctors add. Experts at the clinic say the problem has significantly worsened in six months. Last year, no patient was using the jabs. The revelation raises fresh concerns about how easy it is to get hold of the drugs, and the lack of effective safeguards. They are only licensed for use on the NHS by people who are obese and have weight-related health problems – but there is a huge private market for the treatments and a spiralling black market. Dimitri Theofili, eating disorder therapist at Banbury Lodge, said: 'What we're seeing is really concerning. Clients as young as 16 are revealing during therapy that they are misusing weight-loss injections to fuel their unhealthy relationship with food. 'This is all about psychological control – the need to control what they're putting into their body. Society's acceptance of weight- loss jabs to tackle weight loss rather than their main intended purpose – to help control type 2 diabetes or to tackle clinical obesity – has fuelled this notion that if you're not using a weight- loss jab to lose weight, then you're falling behind.' Campaigners said last night that urgent action needs to be taken to restrict use of the jabs to protect vulnerable people. Tom Quinn, director of external affairs at the UK's eating disorder charity Beat, said the statistics are 'very concerning'. 'These medications are extremely dangerous for people with eating disorders because they can worsen harmful eating behaviours and thoughts for people who are unwell, or contribute to an eating disorder developing in those who are at risk,' he said. 'It should be mandatory for thorough mental health assessments to be carried out alongside physical health checks, and for regular check-ins if someone is prescribed weight-loss drugs, including once the course of treatment is over.' Some 500,000 people in Britain are thought to be taking Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro, most via private prescriptions. Concerns have been raised about the lack of safeguards around such prescriptions. Little is known about the safety of the jabs for people of normal weight – let alone those with eating disorders who may already be severely underweight. If you're worried about your own or someone else's health you can contact Beat, the UK's eating disorder charity, on 0808 801 0677 or at

Overweight Brits to get awarded shop vouchers for upping step count and eating healthily

OVERWEIGHT Brits will get shop vouchers to help shed the pounds. An NHS plan will see users awarded points for upping their step count and eating healthily. 2 They can then be traded for vouchers, with discounts at supermarkets and coffee shops. Details are still being finalised but it is expected users will link health data on their smartphones to the NHS app. Health Secretary Wes Streeting said: 'We're bringing together tech, business, the NHS, and citizens to get Britain moving and helping drive down waiting lists. 'During a cost-of-living crisis, we're not going to make food more expensive or ban treats — we're not the fun police. 'Our approach is more nudge than nanny.' The new measures are part of Labour's 10 Year Health Plan set to be unveiled on Thursday. Supermarkets will be forced to promote healthy products such as fruit and vegetables instead of chocolate and crisps. Sir Brendan Foster, long-distance Olympian and founder of the Great North Run, will also help in a new campaign to get people exercising. Sir Brendan Foster, long-distance Olympian and founder of the Great North Run, will also help in a new campaign to get people exercising. The Government says reducing daily intake by just 50 calories could lift 340,000 children and two million adults out of obesity. Treating obesity-related conditions costs the NHS £11.4billion a year. Mr Streeting added: 'If we don't tackle the rising tide of costs and demand on the NHS, then we won't have an NHS much longer.' 2
