Cravings ‘like heroin withdrawal’: what happens when weight-loss drugs don’t work?
By Nicola Davis Science correspondentGLP-1 medications have been a gamechanger in the fight against obesity. But for a minority of patients, their impact is negligible. Why?

Nearly 90% of adults are at risk for this condition, but most have never heard of it, survey finds – CBS News
Nearly 90% of adults are at risk for this condition, but most have never heard of it, survey finds

Sara Moniuszko is a health and lifestyle reporter at CBSNews.com. Previously, she wrote for USA Today, where she was selected to help launch the newspaper’s wellness vertical. She now covers breaking and trending news for CBS News’ HealthWatch.
October 20, 2025 / 1:31 PM EDT / CBS News
About 9 in 10 adults in the United States have not heard of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome despite nearly 90% of adults being at risk for the condition, according to a recent survey from the American Heart Association.
Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, or CKM syndrome, is a disorder caused by the connections between heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes and obesity. The syndrome, which was defined by the AHA for the first time in October 2023, reflects how these conditions can influence or worsen each other.
“The health conditions were previously considered separate problems and are often managed separately. With this new designation, the AHA wants people to understand that the conditions are closely connected,” Mass General Brigham explains.
To diagnose CKM syndrome, providers will test different risk factors, to determine your stage from 0 to 4, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Stage 0 means no risk factors; Stage 1 means you have excess body fat; Stage 2 means you have a condition such as Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or kidney disease; Stage 3 means you have heart disease without symptoms or a high risk of it; and Stage 4 means you have heart disease with symptoms, extra body fat and risk factors for diabetes or other metabolic conditions. Stage 4 could also include kidney disease.
According to a study published in JAMA last year, nearly 90% of U.S. adults have at least one risk factor for CKM syndrome, which include the following:
- High blood pressure
- Abnormal cholesterol
- High blood sugar
- Excess weight
- Reduced kidney function
“The interplay of these risk factors increases the risk for heart attack, stroke and heart failure more than any one of them alone,” the AHA said in a news release about its survey.
Changes to eating habits and physical activity can help prevent CKM syndrome, AHA and other experts say.
In a 2023 interview with CBS New York, cardiologist Dr. Nidhi Kumar said 33% of Americans have three or more risk factors that contribute to this syndrome.
“When we think of danger in medicine, sometimes people think of the words ‘cancer’ or ‘COVID,’ but chronic diseases, like those that make up CKM, are the leading cause of death and disability in the United States,” Kumar said.

“Weapons of Health Destruction...” How Colonialism Created the Modern Native American Diet
The Impact of Systematic Oppression on Indigenous Cuisine in the United States
#Frybread, sometimes called “#DieBread” or a “weapon of health destruction,” has multiple origin stories, and they all involve oppression and perseverance.
by Andrea Freeman, July 24, 2024
Excerpt: "On the hit television show #ReservationDogs, the only series ever to feature all #Indigenous writers, directors, and main cast members, the Indian Health Center invites rapper Punkin’ Lusty, played by real-life #Mvskoke rapper #StenJoddi, to perform his hit song '#GreasyFrybread.' [A song Dr. Lowry played during today's broadcast.] The occasion is #Diabetes Awareness Month. Lusty raps,
Baby girl looking deadly (Yeah!)
Why she acting all Rezzy (Yeah!)
Hotter than a pan of frybread grease!
Have a Native hittin’ Powwow Beats!
Gotcha Auntie in the kitchen
Like no he didn’t
Got her Gramama’s skillet
Like she ’bout to kill it!The song solidly locates frybread within Indigenous culture.
Sofkee [a corn drink or soup] on the burner
Hokte Hokte [woman] head turner
Water baking powder
Choppin’ up that white stuff
All purpose flour
Gotta mix it right up
Hit the Rez with the Shits
They eats it right up! Watch the grease pop
Watch her waist drop
She got that blue bird bag [Blue Bird flour comes in a twenty-pound cloth bag and claims to be “The Native American Frybread Secret”]
In her tank top
he got that white powder
All over everything
She gettin’ to bussin’ man
But we ain’t cousins man!
We from the same tribe
But a different clan
She my Rez Bunny
And I’m her Red Man
She love my Tattoos
And my two braids
Frybread money at the Creek Fest get paid! On that!”Foregrounding this song in the Health Center’s battle against diabetes underscores the other side of frybread’s legacy, also emblazoned on a T-shirt that announces 'Frybread: Creating #Obesity Since 1860.' #Cheyenne and #HudulgeeMuscogee #IndigenousRights activist #SuzanShownHarjo, who vowed to give up frybread as a New Year’s resolution, explains, 'Frybread is emblematic of the #LongTrails from home and freedom to confinement and #rations. It’s the connecting dot between healthy children and obesity, #hypertension, diabetes, #dialysis, #blindness, #amputations and #SlowDeath.' Reflecting on stereotypes that dehumanized Indigenous people to justify #colonization, such as the worn-out trope of Indians drinking 'firewater,' Harjo asserts that frybread love is another way to portray them as 'simple-minded people who salute the little grease bread and get misty-eyed about it.'
"In The #HeartbeatOfWoundedKnee, scholar #DavidTreuer introduces health educator #ChelseyLuger, who is #Ojibwe and #Lakota. Chelsey talks to Indigenous communities about the perils of frybread as part of her efforts to steer their diets in new directions, even in the face of limited food options. 'Sometimes people get defensive, but we are able to make the conversation positive. We say we grew up with it and like it and we say frybread is not power. We say frybread kills our people. It’s that serious. It causes diabetes and heart disease. We have to look at those colonial foods as a kind of enemy.' "

#FYI #processedfood #obesity #ChrisVanTulleken #Documentary
(Well, sorry folks, I must tell a harsh truth here:
IT IS our own fault, IT IS our own lack of discipline and nothing else. Nothing can be made "irresistible". Nobody can force us to eat ultra processed food if we decide we don't want it. Also nobody can hinder us to grow and/or cook our own food, except our own unwillingness. If we are willing we find solutions, if we are unwilling, we make up a pretext.) -

We're #covidzero as over #60s are at higher risk of negative outcomes from #covid. The risk of 30% chance of #longcovid from #covid19 may mean serious #lifelong poor #health. #Diabetes, #asthma, #obesity, #ageing & many other things increase #risk of #hospitalion or #death. #Vaccine for some but still has limited protection. Low income = no #vaxx. We #wearamask. Life got tricky. I expect no response as most ignore #publichealth. How are others avoiding #covid19 but functioning nowadays?

I wonder why we never measure #HbA1c in mouse models of #obesity #diabetes or #insulinresistance
A quick google reveals that the tools are there (ELISA kits) and it seems to be a decent readout of longitudinal blood glucose levels. Obviously Hba1c would bypass the fluctuations we see in POC blood glucose testing associated with the stress of handling, cutting tail, etc.
