A new study finds that popular weight loss drug "could be profitably produced for less than $5 a month, even as maker Novo Nordisk A/S charges almost $1,000 in the US..."

The company's combined 2023 sales of Ozempic and related product Wegovy topped $18 billion.

"Ozempic shows us why we cannot trust this corporate feminism: It is a feminism of aesthetics and individualism and commercial opportunism, not of political commitment. As soon as the cruel honesty of capitalism tells Mattel that it’s in their best interest to do so, they’ll leave feminist Barbie behind, the same way they abandoned the plus-size models and the body positive photoshoots."

This is a big deal. #Mounjaro helped me lose 110lb in less than a year. It changed my life for the better.

The best thing about this drug is it silences the food chatter in your head.

Men who are #overweight or #obese at age 18 have a higher risk of 17 different #cancers later in life. This has been shown in a study at the University of Gothenburg. The research also describes how the youth #obesity #epidemic is expected to affect the cancer situation over the next 30 years.

Obesity and the fructose survival hypothesis:

“Fructose is unique in resetting ATP levels to a lower level in the cell as a consequence of suppressing mitochondrial function, while blocking the replacement of ATP from fat.”

“obesity is a disorder of energy metabolism, in which there is low usable energy (ATP) in the setting of elevated total energy. This leads to metabolic effects independent of excess energy while the excess energy drives weight gain.”

“The fructose survival hypothesis as a mechanism for unifying the various obesity hypotheses”, by Johnson et al. 2023
