Do you think these drugs are new? They have been out for over a decade so yes we do know what they do long term.

Something to consider - it may take over 40 years before a black box warning will be be issued for a drug, like in the case of benzodiazepines.

Once the FDA deems a product 'safe and effective' they can be very slow to admit otherwise.

Even if this is true, you do realize that glp1 have huge health benefits at a low dose besides the fat loss right? So are we going to be pissed people take statins, blood pressure medication, medicine to control blood sugar etc? Why this one drug?

fricking laughable the dude said “Tucker Carlson had on an expert”

A) Tucker is a giant douche who will have anyone on to say anything to make money.

B) I don’t give a frick if the guy worked as ceo of a company, doesn’t change the fact of what the studies show

C) this is the same shite but opposite as with covid shot. All the experts said it was safe and effective yet all the data said otherwise. I’ll stick with the data, aka the real science not the made up science the pussies on both sides of the political aisle want you to believe

Exactly

This is the same kind of shite you see when someone post a pic on social media or Reddit where they look good…comments are full of 110 lbs guys screaming steroids. Sometimes that’s the case, sometimes it’s not but the jealousy is oozing through the screen on those comments

Not really sure what the health benefits are but I’m just pointing out that the people I know aren’t using it for anything other than weight control and they’re not obese.

Exactly you have no clue on the benefits but judge them for taking it

It has shown huge promise in the field of longevity but also

Benefits the heart, blood sugar(A1C), mental benefits and it is anti catabolic


And 20-30lbs over weight on a female who should weigh 120, is very detrimental to their overall health long term

Not even gonna get into it’s ability to curb addictions, especially alcohol and smoking

Who says anything when dudes jumping on gear to bulk? If it makes these people look and feel better, why not take advantage of what’s available?

Because dudes are generally not using health insurance to buy juice

now people using their insurance is the problem?

Thats always been the problem. Its not new.

Would you rather that person use their insurance for BP meds, Cholesterol meds, DM2 meds, future heart caths and/or bypass surgeries, and eventually future dialysis needs? We’re talking 10’s of millions throughout one lifetime. The math isn’t hard… at all.

---

Id rather that person change their lifestyle than just default to big pharma and the healthcare industry to fund their weight loss.

I'll ask the same question here but surely you see the different between a diabetic being on a statin to help their cholesterol and a person with an a1c of 7.2 being on a diabetic medication to lose weight. Right? I mean, you see that difference and just don't care or do you not see it?

Them losing weight on it likely reduces ER visits, other meds, etc. They’re saving you money, bud.

wait til the common health risks are widely known.
