I’m no Nostradamus…

And I don’t have a crystal ball.

So I can’t tell you what the big business breakthrough of 2030 is going to be.

Obviously, if I knew that, I’d make millions – maybe even billions – when the time came.

But I can do the next best thing…

And that’s to find the beginnings of trends, when they’re just green shoots, before most people in the public get to know about them.

This is a never-ending quest that OBSESSES me!

I’m constantly on the lookout for the next mega-trend.

They’re especially profitable when they’re DISRUPTIVE.

By that, I mean they don’t simply improve an existing product or service.

They change EVERYTHING!

For instance, eCommerce platforms like Amazon and eBay meant that people could get almost any product delivered within a few days at the click of a mouse… toppling many old bricks ‘n’ mortar businesses… and allowing ordinary people to sell from home.

Smartphones allowed anyone to become a photographer, film maker or mobile online seller…. hitting old school businesses that sold cameras, road atlases and calculators.

And ChatGPT put capabilities that once required a copywriter, researcher, programmer or marketing agency into the hands of almost anyone.

That’s what disruption does.

It removes an obstacle and makes something expensive, complicated or exclusive a lot cheaper, simpler and more available to the masses.

When that happens, entirely new markets can appear almost overnight.

And you can see it right now in the weight loss industry…

A Small Injection Is Causing A Revolution

You can’t have missed the media stories about GLP-1 drugs.

Switch on the radio, open a newspaper, or talk to an old friend and somebody will start talking about them.

GLP-1 drugs are also known as ‘Weight loss jabs’. They include Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro.

Quite simply, users give themselves a small injection every week to suppress their appetite and lose weight without consciously dieting or exercising.

The latest stats show that 1.6 million adults in Great Britain used these drugs in the past year, based on a UCL study published in January 2026.

That same study showed that 3.3 million more said they would be interested in using them in the next year.

The typical user is a woman in her forties or fifties. In fact, women make up 78% of Mounjaro users in the UK, and the over-forties are more than half of them.

This has totally changed the weight loss landscape.

The slimming clubs, meal-replacement shakes and old school diet books are fast going out of date or becoming obsolete.

Jenny Craig, an American weight loss, weight management, and nutrition company closed in 2023.

Then WeightWatchers, a household name for over sixty years, filed for bankruptcy in 2025.

It was unable to compete with an injection that does in weeks what their points and meetings took years to attempt.

But whenever a new technology upends the old order, it also opens up new opportunities.

Because when millions of people change how they eat, how they look and how they feel, all at the same time, they create a tidal wave of new problems to solve.

Now a growing number of urgent needs has sprung up for weight loss drug users.

Fast Rising New Niches For Side Effects and Weight Regain

Make no mistake, weight loss drugs are not a magic bullet.

Research indicates that obesity is a chronic condition, and stopping medication without lifestyle changes will not do much good long term.

A University of Cambridge study found that within a year of stopping the jabs, people regain, on average, about 60% of the weight they’d lost.

Weight regain is so common because these medications are designed to continuously suppress your appetite.

When you stop, your brain’s natural hunger cues return, leading to a rapid increase in appetite and weight.

In fact, studies show that after stopping treatment, people tend to regain weight faster than if they had stopped conventional dieting.

Within a year of ending the jabs, users generally regain about two-thirds (around 60%) of the weight they originally lost.

On top of that, the improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol and cardiovascular health during treatment often reverse as the weight returns… which is why some experts now believe the drugs should potentially become lifelong treatments.

But most people cannot afford that, and will not stay on these drugs for life.

So all of these people will need support, advice and tools to maintain a healthy weight after they stop.

Then there are the numerous side effects that users may have to deal with….

• Muscle loss – Studies suggest lean mass can account for up to 40% of total weight lost, with some trials showing roughly 13.9% loss of lean muscle mass. Doctors are concerned about this, especially for older bodies, where losing muscle means weaker bones, more falls and frailty. And when weight is regained, it primarily returns as fat, meaning that body composition can end up worse than before.
• ‘Ozempic face’ and loose skin. Rapid loss of facial fat (and some muscle) can cause hollow cheeks, sunken eyes, sagging and an aged appearance; loose skin can appear elsewhere after large losses.
• Hair thinning and shedding. Reported after rapid weight loss; has become a named beneficiary category for haircare and supplement brands.
• Gastrointestinal problems – these affect roughly 50–60% of users, especially early on and after each dose increase, including: Nausea and vomiting… Diarrhoea and constipation… Bloating, reflux and burping

In rare cases, there are serious complications…

• Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). Occurs in under 1% of users but can be life-threatening; severe, persistent abdominal pain is a warning sign.
• Gallstones and gallbladder disease. Rapid weight loss and slowed bile flow raise the risk.
• Gastroparesis (”stomach paralysis”) – the drugs slow how fast the stomach empties, which in some people becomes severe.
• Kidney problems (usually linked to dehydration from heavy vomiting/diarrhoea), injection-site reactions, and low blood sugar (more likely when combined with other diabetes medicines or alcohol).
• Sudden vision loss (NAION). In February 2026 the UK’s MHRA issued a Drug Safety Update warning that semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic, Rybelsus) has been very rarely linked to non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, a condition causing sudden vision deterioration, usually in one eye.
• Mental health problems. UK and EU regulators have reviewed reports of suicidal or self-harm thoughts among users.

So the jabs haven’t killed off the weight-loss business…

They’ve created lots of new niche opportunities to help people who try to lose weight using GLP-1 medications.

Millions of people are now using these jabs, eating less, watching their muscle waste away, battling side effects, and wondering how they’ll keep the weight off when they stop.

They need methods, plans, systems and support across every stage: before they start, while they’re on the jab, as they manage side effects, when they come off, and forever after.

For example…

Eating well when appetite has disappeared

• Hitting daily protein targets on a tiny appetite
• Getting enough vitamins, minerals and fibre from very little food
• Meal plans and recipes built for small portions
• Gentle, easy-on-the-stomach meals for nausea days
• Batch-cooking and freezer systems for when cooking feels like too much
• Staying properly hydrated
• What to eat (and how to cope) when dining out or at family meals
• Filling nutritional gaps sensibly with supplements

Protecting muscle and bone

• Simple at-home strength/resistance routines for beginners
• A clear protein strategy to hold onto muscle
• Understanding and avoiding sarcopenia and frailty
• Protecting bone density during rapid loss
• Tracking body composition

Managing the side effects

• Settling nausea, vomiting and “sulphur burps”
• Relieving constipation, diarrhoea and reflux
• Caring for skin and facial volume
• Coping with loose skin after big losses
• Tackling hair thinning and shedding
• Managing fatigue and low energy
• Knowing the warning signs of the serious stuff, and when to call a doctor or go to A&E

Keeping the weight off and coming off safely

• Transitioning to natural, drug-free maintenance… proper tapering plan rather than stopping cold
• Using the “window” the drug provides to build lasting habits
• Systems to prevent the rebound, and what to do if weight starts creeping back
• Ongoing tracking, accountability and check-ins
• Natural ways to manage appetite, satiety and cravings
• Losing weight through lifestyle alone (food, movement, sleep, habits)

Mindset

• Staying motivated and accountable over the long haul
• Coping when “food noise” comes roaring back after stopping
• Healing an emotional or difficult relationship with food
• Adjusting to a changed body and a changed identity
• Getting through plateaus and setbacks without giving up
• Feeling part of a community instead of doing it alone
• Wellbeing support

So as you can see, this is an entire health ecosystem with numerous niches.

The drug companies might sell the injection but they don’t sell the strength routines that stop you losing precious muscle… or maintenance plans… or support groups… or honest guidance… or reassurance.

So the “what next” question is barely served for users of these drugs, and growing by the day.

Which is where there is room for people like us to offer information, advice, support and tools.

And this is where you could potentially profit.
