She endorses green tea in her recent TikTok clip, stating that it could be beneficial: "Just your daily reminder not to sleep on nature's Ozempic, aka green tea or black tea.

She says: "The polyphenols in green and black tea stimulate your L cells to produce more GLP1. What's GLP1? It's the hormone in Ozempic. It also makes the GLP1 that's produced by your body last longer so you're getting more and longer-lasting GLP1."
