Hopefully. But it feels like we do this very often. We get a drug or something else that does this or that and is touted as being the best at this and then a few years later we announce that it was a horrible decision and has harsh consequences. Cigarettes, plastic, trans fats, so many dietary trends…
I’d love to try it but I’m skeptical just for this reason. Hoping not to hear in a decade that all these people developed the same type of cancer or some other horrible ailment.

Man, remember Fen-Phen?
He lives in NZ and therefore isn’t eating American poison that is sold as food
He isn’t in Seattle anymore?
Hasn’t been for a while. He was in NZ when the pandemic hit and has since made it his primary residence.
Went to NZ right before/as pandemic really hit and decided to stay
I just wish I could afford it, but my insurance won’t cover it.
People like Gabe are exactly the type that semaglutides were made for. Good for him either way.
