Is it fear mongering question the morality of a corporation that’s job is to make a profit over the people they help? Didn’t Luigi Mangione just shoot the head of a health care conglomerate for similar reasons?
I want to be clear that I’m not criticizing the individual who decides to take it. This is about the corporations and marketing teams that are chomping at the bit to get in on the action.
I don’t think it’s healthy to have Serena Williams (an elite professional athlete) selling the idea of being fat to anyone.
And I don’t trust the burgeoning market to be regulated. I could envision a world where you could buy knock off GLP-1s at 7-11 like you can with dick pills.
Either way, my opinion is that regardless of losing the weight, being physically active and eating healthy is the key to good continued health. GLPs can help get the weight off, but it can also come back if you stop using or if you’re not disciplined after quitting. And considering how lack of discipline got you there in the first place, it’s not hard to believe many will fall back into old habits.
