There’s a completely drugfree way to stop getting fat... It’s called... Stop stuffing your face all day, and every day with food.

The way I read it, it keeps your from getting fat, but no mention of what it does if you are already fat.

Death does the same thing and, according to Woody Allen, there are no side effects...

I lost 40 lbs last year. And now I eat good so I can keep it off. It’s hard work and worth it. Sure I eat bad food now and then, but not enough to gain weight. I think I’m doing it the right way. Taking pills isn’t.

Since this has been known since 2023, what’s the latest and is it now available?

As an OTC?

Great, more commercials with lazy fat asses. Maybe the Lume pig can combine her stank and bulk into one product.

America is one endless search for the next blue pill.

I guess that’s science and progress?

So is a diet and some exercise.

On the flip side, if these new meds work better and are more safe than say phentermine (nasty stuff) or chopping people’s plumbing apart and rerouting it (gastric bypass), it’s the better of two evils.

Article about CPACC from two years ago, and it is still nowhere near coming to market.

Researchers are closer to developing a drug that could one day rival celebrity-touted Ozempic, as initial experiments show that an in-the-works medication can both prevent weight gain and promote weight loss.

Scientists from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio tested the “game-changing” drug, called CPACC, on mice.

Led by professor of medicine Madesh Muniswamy, the researchers discovered that the drug curbed weight gain from foods high in sugar and fat, which are prevalent in the Western diet.

It seems to be great news for people with a sweet tooth: In theory, people could chow down on whatever they wanted without the added health risks and weight gain.

Currently, 1 in 3 Americans is overweight, per the National Institutes of Health.

“One of the main barriers to people losing weight is getting to a healthy diet and sticking to it, and also, you typically have to combine it with pretty aggressive exercise – and not everyone can exercise,” study author Travis Madaris, a doctoral student working with Muniswamy, told The Post.

“This, standalone or maybe in combination with some minor lifestyle changes, would definitely be game-changing for people that struggle with losing weight.”

The study, published in Cell Reports, comes after months of A-listers using the weight-loss injectable Ozempic, a drug meant for people with Type 2 diabetes. While there’s been speculation as to who exactly has been taking it, the uptick in popularity has triggered a widespread shortage, leaving diabetics empty handed.

“When we give this drug to the mice for a short time, they start losing weight. They all become slim,” said Madesh Muniswamy, PhD …
Uh-huh.

I thought I read recently that magnesium helped to prevent dementia. Do I have to choose between being fat & getting Alzheimer’s? Decisions, decisions...
