The human body was not designed to run on processed foods...and we all start out the same way following information coming from people who have no idea about the right nutrition either.. It took me a lifetime to learn how to eat and get the fat off my body. I went through my teens and married life weighing 150 pounds at 5'3". Today I weigh 105 pounds and i am not skinny. I simply eat as our Creator intended. I avoid most processed foods with the exception of coconut milk. I eat as much organic raw fruit as possible, which has living nutrients. I also eat eggs from our own chickens. At 92, I do a non-stop 90 minute walk daily. One can't purchase health...and the Medical Industry promotes its drugs, vaccines and treatments ...not the right food for the human body. The missing piece of the puzzle is also asking a blessing on the food, it works miracles.
One can’t purchase health! Your wisdom is refreshing. I’ve worked in health care for 30 years, and have learned that there is absolutely nothing healthy about it.
I wonder how many patients are giving true informed consent by their drs prior to prescribing these drugs for all the possible serious negative side effects “the dark side of injectables”? When I talk to friends on these GLP-1s they don’t seem to know about these issues. I get it, obesity is significant. But I believe most people are lazy and do not really want to eat right and exercise regularly. These drugs have their need but frankly I believe they are being overused because it’s easy. I bet most know little if anything about their ingredients.
i find it all very disturbing on a number of levels. why would TWC also offer an oral version that I am guessing comes with similar risks as the injectable? It does sound " easier" but wouldn't the side effects and risks be the same?
What about people who lose enough weight without using GLP drugs or surgery? How many of those people are there? What do they do to suppress their appetite? Do they just have enough will power to stop eating so much? Seems like these people have no risks of side effects and are likely healthier.
Seems like all the GLP drugs and surgery do is suppress appetite. Right? There have been many drugs used to stress appetite. What's wrong with all those other drugs used in the past?
Some say it's the modern American food that is making so many people obese. Seems like people could eat a large quantity of more natural foods that do not contain a lot of calories to satisfy their appetites and lose weight.
I dropped excess weight after realizing that so called healthy complex carbs such as sweet potatoes, brown rice, and legumes were spiking my blood sugar and insulin. I already ate animal protein and learned that adequate protein releases our own body’s GLP-1, so I pretty much eliminated starchy carbs in favor of lots of non starch veggies and more fat. That eating plan reduced my appetite, no will power necessary. I dropped weight and reversed fatty liver and sleep apnea.
As many others have stated here, if people would simply eat healthy food that God put here on this earth for us, they wouldn’t need this stuff.
But, people can be so stubborn. My cousin is a retired MD, and both he and his wife have been taking Ozempic for quite some time now. The reason given to me is that they are both “borderline” diabetic. He brags about the amount of weight they have lost, but can’t seem to make the connection between the Ozempic and the fact that both of them have fallen and broken some bones. I don’t attempt to convince him because with his background, that would be futile. But, I pray that they will wake up and smell the coffee.
I’m 73 years old and have studied nutrition for most of my adult life. I don’t eat processed foods (fake food!), I avoid sugar (cancer food!), I buy raw milk and fresh eggs and other raw dairy products from a farm, I buy fresh organic produce and grass fed and finished beef, as well as pastured chicken and pork. I take zero prescription drugs and I have zero aches and pains.
Fixing the food system will take time but hopefully will eventually throw a wrench into both OR and pharmacy markets. Especially if we can find a way to clean up environmental toxins/obesogenes ... which unfortunately will be harder. Every time consumers buy organic and regenerative we help those who struggle with weight.
People do not get fat because they don't exercise enough; they get fat because of their diet. It's best to be on a diet that does not make you fat to begin with, but if you are fat, you need to lose weight, and then get on the correct diet.
Nobody want to be fat, and everyone on GLP or bariatric surgery has already failed at weight loss. They all know that if they eat less, or even fast, they will lose weight. That's the most common advice given. They failed that approach because they get hungry. Both GLP and surgery decreases hunger, and they eat less, and they loses weight.
Currently we do not really give anyone a good diet when they start GLP drugs, because we know you will lose weight regardless of your diet (unless crazy) as you just eat less. Like any weight-loss diet, if you lose weight, you must then go on a different diet. Return to the diet that made you fat, and you will get fat again.
Lose weight on a GLP, go on a good diet, and oral GLP may help prevent regain. Be only about 20 pounds overweight, take oral GLP, go on a good diet, and you may lose weight without injectables.
Semaglutide goes off patent soon in other countries. Oral semaglutide is easy to make, cheap, and the tables can easily be transported around the world in the mail I would imagine oral GLP would eventually become an OTC drug. If you could go on an oral GLP for $50 a month, it would greatly expand the customer base, and change the dynamics of surgery vs GLP drugs.
If you are morbidly obese, the best option is to just stop eating. You will not starve as you have plenty of fat energy. After a week you should be supplying all the energy you need from your fat, and hence stop hunger (except psychological). It is cheap, as about the only thing you would need is perhaps a multiple vitamin pill. Unlike GLP, there is no weight loss plateau.
"The rebound problem. Stop the drug, regain the weight. This isn’t speculation—it’s consistently observed. GLP-1s are not a cure; they’re a chronic suppressive therapy to achieve a goal over months or a few years."
To "cure" the appetite regulation problem requires some attention to linoleic acid arachidonic acid intake. Chronic excessive arachidonic acid intake, in particular, has a negative impact on endocannabinoid tone. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1155/2013/361895
Unfortunately, there is no human obesity research in which intakes of both linoleic acid and arachidonic acid were restricted for a period of a year or more so as to reduce the concentration of arachidonic acid in adipose tissue. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2730166/
So, try this AI query: How long does it take to reduce adipose tissue arachidonic acid to a level that will improve endocannabinoid tone?
Why that particular query. Here's another: How are the endocannabinoid system and the incretin system related?
Like the gender surgeries - bariatric surgeries can end in a heartbreak of no-return. A person can always stop the GLP - if it doesn’t blow-up their pancreas, first. I don’t mean blow-up the way Trump blows things up.
My sister had a lap-band, and after a few years, was having problems. The surgeon bellyached ~lol~ about removing it. Turned out, there was a piece of metal on the port side, stabbing her. After he removed it he retaliated and did a sleeve that left her with a stomach as big around as a Sharpie - that’s what she gets for complaining. She’s on GLP-1, now and is about to test RETA.

I asked this myself a while back and no answer. I am very curious as to why no answer.
40-50 years ago we didn’t have obesity problems.
Look back and relearn

Excellent article on competitive markets in healthcare.
Another infomercial for TWC products.
Thank you for reiterating the dangers of injectable GLP-1s!
Please help us understand the actual safety and effectiveness data of the oral GLP-1s?
With the clear danger of harm from injectables why no concern about oral?
In the MAHA discussions lifestyle and diet are first “best routes” for our western unwise lifestyles.
