There are still people who think that food is not to blame.
No one was fat 150 years ago.
What do you think will happen if people start gobbling up these pills while still eating garbage? It will just mask the damage being done to the body.
Meanwhile big pharma will be rolling in cash while people will end up destroying their bodies even more.
If I can not exercise and take a pill to replicate the benefits of cardio and strength training, I’d also do that. I only have so many hours left to live, and I’d rather not spend it doing maintenance on my body.
Life is short. I want all the benefits without the costs (time, restraint), and if science can make it happen, shut up and take my money. To argue there’s a moral hazard here is…strange, if we have the capability and the side effects can be managed.
Just don't be suprised when in 20 years "the science" will tell you that they were wrong (again) lol.
You can easily gain weight eating too much healthy food.
Caloric surplus is not a new phenomenon, ancient Rome had obesity.
It’s definitely become much easier to gain a surplus with all this processed food but I just don’t see behaviors changing anytime soon, so anything that reduces the pressure on our health care systems is worth investigating.
