...featuring a morbidly obese woman "dancing" (I'm being very charitable here) to a "catchy" (again, speaking charitably) song about the joy she gets from experiencing positive results from regular consumption of a very dangerous medication which is still dangerous even though it's taken in tablet and not intravenous form.
Jardiance "helps the body flush out some sugars," presumably resulting in less work for your natural insulin and lessening the risk of developing full-blown Type II diabetes. But I'm pretty sure that there's an even easier, far less expensive, and much less dangerous way to help your body deal with sugars: DON'T CONSUME THEM.
I'm practically allergic to processed sugar, and even the sugar in some fruits can really trigger my arthritis pain flares. I've noticed that since I've stopped adding frozen blueberries to my morning smoothies, I have less pain in my knee and ankle and less aching in my feet. Thankfully, I don't NEED any sugar for my body to function properly. Neither does anybody else. And no sugar tastes as good as moving without pain feels. Bottom line: No more sugar for me. And I simply can't imagine how anyone could choose Jardiance over JUST CUTTING OUT SUGARS. Sugar is addictive and if you're used to consuming it you'll find it difficult to give up- but once you get past the early cravings, you'll be amazed at how awesome life can be without it. Especially when the cost of consuming sugar is this very expensive, very dangerous drug. Get a grip, people.
You need to get a grip. Have you thought about fact that some of the symptoms that these drugs address are sometines genetic. I have a pretty clean diet, in terms of sugar and work out 4 days a week. But my kidneys still aren't quite functioning the way they should. I'm 65 and if I don't do something soon, I'll be on dialysis by the time I'm 75. Lord knows I don't want the drugs or the expense and side effects that they come with but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, the commercial is corny as hell!
I agree 100%. Using a morbidly obese person to sell a diabetes drug is criminal. You're saying obesity is fine....we'll just manage your diabetes with drugs rather that a healthy lifestyle with a weight loss program.
ReplyDeletei cannot escape this commercial send help
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe how many times this commercial plays in a day! I have to hit the mute button and throw my hands over my eyes! I can't take the dancing crowd. Ranks up there with the Colorguard "MyWay" commercial
DeleteThis 'dancing in the street' Jardiance commercial is number 1 of the worst two commercials on TV. The song, little miss musical "Hairspray' knockoff and the dancing postman. The second worst is Christina Hall, in all her upspeak, California girl hair and voice talking about Jacuzzi, the number 1 name in water!!
ReplyDeleteI agree 1000%....Doesn't the Jacuzzi sponsors hear what we hear? She's a terrible spokesperson, Valley Girl upspeak and all.
DeleteThis Rhino needs a full cast and crew,wardrobe,makeup artist,and "fans",for two short kicks,and a twirl? 😆 very cringeworthy and boneheaded.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the advertisement fully supports morbid obesity.
