We don't know how to treat obesity 100% though

• xandrius 1y ago
  Yep because the system around you wants you to consume to obesity.
• ponector 1y ago
  Are you joking? We do know how to treat eating disorders. Same as we know how to treat opioid addiction or alcoholism.

    No I'm not, as far as I'm aware "diet" is one of the "drugs" with highest failure rate ever
  • array_key_first 1y ago
    Yes, and that's why we have eliminated addiction.

  GLP-1s are remarkably effective.
  • Fire-Dragon-DoL 1y ago
    Absolutely true, but it seems there is a lot of reluctancy in prescribing them
    • loeg 1y ago
      I'm not sure that's true? Insurance is hesitant to cover their expense for less extreme cases, and they're very expensive. But I haven't heard of prescribing being a real bottleneck. They're not controlled substances and the side effect profile is pretty mild (other than price).
