Weight loss injections have been one of the biggest health trends of the year, helping many lose significant amounts of weight.
There has been a seven-fold increase in the number of people using weight loss jabs in the UK over the last year, with many facing spiralling costs as they pay privately to obtain the medication.
But with many patients buying jabs online, the growing private market and lack of professional oversight could be stirring up serious health problems.
As they become more and more popular, what has the evidence told us far?
Are they a weight loss miracle, are they the answer to our obesity crisis, or are they causing more health problems?
