How are GLPs bad for the world?


He thinks it's bad to inject drugs, rather than managing calories in/out.

I'm not into GLPs, but I could see a reasonable case made for supporting them. For most of the past 50K years, we either had to hunt, walk around, farm, split wood etc. which means burning 500+ calories daily. Now, most of us sit in offices 8 hours a day using 0 calories and 0 muscle, surrounded by calories.

It's not surprising really that the default in this situation is obesity.


you're right its my own annoyance with the ads, updated my comment
