Brooks Nader’s Sisters Hold Intervention Over GLP-1 Drug Use

Brooks Nader, a 28-year-old model, has been using GLP-1 weight loss drugs to cope with the intense pressures of the modeling industry, especially as she prepared for a Maxim magazine cover shoot. Despite her efforts to microdose, she increased her dosage to appear 'extra snatched,' leading to severe side effects such as nausea, fatigue, passing out, and vomiting. Her sisters grew increasingly concerned after she nearly passed out during a workout class and was found struggling to stay awake in a bathtub, prompting them to stage an intervention upon discovering a basket of needles and multiple bottles of the medication. The sisters emphasized the unrealistic demands of the modeling world and the dangerous extent of Brooks' drug use, noting that she was overprescribed and possibly seeing multiple doctors and pharmacies. Brooks acknowledged the health toll but downplayed the severity, while her family urged her to seek help and reconsider her approach. This family intervention highlights the growing trend and risks of GLP-1 drugs being used off-label for weight loss in high-pressure environments like modeling.
