Sure, but there is nothing in the world of the last 30-40 years that can compare to GLP-1s in terms of helping people consume fewer calories. This is a very coarse statement, but I'm confident in making it: there is nothing healthier than being skinny, and GLP-1s make people skinny in a way that is unique in modernity. Our modern food systems are optimized to encourage people to consume as many calories as they can, and GLP-1s are bulwarks against this system, if you will.
>there is nothing healthier than being skinny
Being fit is healthier. Studies support the idea that being overweight but physically active is cardiovascularly healthier than being skinny(GLP-1 or not) and sedentary.
