I'm wondering a lot about the value of food and agricultural products in a consumerist society these days Just a few days ago, in a TV show about the car industry in France, a car dealer was mocking the rednecks who came to buy new cars despite eating wholefood. Now this article describes how social media find wholefood can be a cheaper alternative to Ozempic for weight loss, when you are otherwise healthy and don't need it as a prescription. A nutritionist finds that YES IT IS and his peers have been telling that for decades. I love that part in particular : ``` Ultimately, a diet that encourages natural production of GLP-1 diet is full of whole foods, including fruit, vegetables, legumes and nuts, says Damman. That people could be discovering this by attempting to mimic the effects of weight-loss drugs is an irony not lost on some nutritional scientists, including Damman. "The journey has come full-circle," he says. "All roads lead back to eating whole foods – there's no substitute for them." ``` Why do people consume and eat according to their income, instead of caring about their health ? Do they think high income earners are a different bread ?
