Corporate America weighs risks of the Ozempic effect

Like, there will definitely be economic effects in some areas if weight-control-via-consumption-reduction treatments become commonplace. But isn't that ... good? If the goal is increased health, which it seems like these drugs could help many people with, then it seems odd to focus on the financial impacts to companies which profit from unhealth without discussing the benefits (to those receiving treatment and to society as a whole) as well.

I've been using compounded tirzepatide for some time now, and it has dramatically altered not only how much food I buy, but what kind; in some cases, I'll spend a lot more per unit since I know I'm buying a lot less.

The secondary effects for medical device makers (fewer gastric sleeves sold, more artificial hips and knees) sound promising for everyone's health!
