as far as cracking it I heard there's a drug now that pretty much solves obesity but insurance isn't covering it well. Wegovy maybe? Or Mounjaro? Maybe both: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-04505-7
Yeah so that would be a little odd. There’s been a lot of talk about how most spending in healthcare is down to “obesity” and a lot of scaremongering about how that is growing. So you’d think if they had a solution to that, it’d be getting a lot of support.
It sorta suggests that obesity isn’t one of the main costs in the US for healthcare (I suspect it isn’t) and that there isn’t a pill that will ”fix” obesity (I suspect there isn’t)
