"Mark my words, we're not going to hear about the s**t show of this for months and years to come … it's going to be a f**king s**t show," the "Big Shot With Bethenny" alum noted. "Ma Huang ended up killing people. This Ozempic thing is going to f**king go sideways and all the other copy cat names, too," she added, referring to a Chinese herb that was allegedly used when she was in her 20s for weight loss purposes as well.
