Before we get much into "game changing" as it were, it should be noted that the article reads a bit like an advertorial. Scant mention of currently known side effects which it sounds like...can get pretty serious: [via wikipedia] nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and constipation may occur.[12] In people with heart problems, it can cause damage to the back of the eye (retinopathy).[13] Side effects include medullary thyroid cancer, kidney problems, diabetic retinopathy, allergic reactions, low blood sugar, and pancreatitis.[9]

Your list sounds exactly like the side effects of EVERY drug advertised on TV. The only thing I don't see is the warning to tell your doctor if you've been to a region where fungal infections are common...
