Hello Doctor,
I’m 15 years old, 5'6", and weigh 205 lbs. I have obesity and was wondering if it's safe for me to take an OLLY Metabolism gummy daily to help with my weight? Should I be concerned about any side effects?
Hello
Thank you for reaching out Dr. Galen, Please find the below response to your query.
1. It's important to approach weight management in a healthy and safe way, especially at your age. The OLLY Metabolism gummies are marketed as supplements to support metabolism, but before starting any new supplement, it’s essential to consider your overall health and consult with a healthcare provider. At 15, your body is still growing, and certain ingredients in these gummies may not be suitable for younger individuals.
2. For your specific situation, I recommend talking to your doctor or a pediatrician who can guide you on the best steps for managing obesity and whether this supplement is appropriate for you. They may suggest more personalized strategies to support your health and help you achieve your weight goals safely.
Thanks
