Ozempic is showing that life expectancy is mostly avoiding obesity, heart disease, and diabetes, but not a specific magic food. It is just calories, vitamins and minerals.

No as Ozempic mimics the reaction of the body to certain classes of food such as fibre and probiotics.

For most people if they eat more fibre and probiotics we would not need Ozempic.

  • Have a link that explains how Ozempic is fiber-mimetic or pro-biotic-mimetic? If that were the case I would expect to see fiber and probiotics to be associated with gastroparesis. They aren't.

    Ozempic exists because Americans are addicted to hypercaloric hyper delicious "food" that was engineered by the big tobacco companies that used their excess cash to buy food companies in the 80's. They then applied their research on making tobacco addictive to make food addictive.

    Modern American food is literally the new tobacco.

    Ozempic disrupts hunger signals. Fiber does that to a certain extent ("increases feelings of satiety"). I haven't seen anything about probiotics doing that, but I think probiotics are bunk and tend not to read about them.

  • Sure, but all the health benefits stress not because it’s a better metamucil. It’s because when you’re not obese, you don’t end up sick and dying.
