    TITLE: Your brain may be wired to regain lost weight

    URL: sciencedaily.com/releases/2026

    Weight loss is not simply a test of willpower. The human brain evolved to protect body fat during times of scarcity, and it can treat a previously higher weight as the new normal, triggering stronger hunger, cravings, and lower energy use after weight loss. This biological “memory” helps explain why many people regain weight after dieting and why medications such as Wegovy and Mounjaro can help by reducing appetite signals, although their effects may fade when treatment ends.

    TITLE: A Daily GLP-1 Pill Could Curb Heavy Drinking, Study Suggests

    URL: socialpsychology.org/client/re

    Source: Google News - Health

    A GLP-1 pill a day may help keep problem drinking at bay. Researchers have conducted a small randomized trial of oral semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, for people with alcohol use disorder. Compared to those taking a placebo, people on semaglutide reported fewer days of heavy drinking, among other benefits. The findings, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, suggest that GLP-1s could have a role in treating...

    TITLE: GLP-1 Drugs Linked to 17% Drop in Worker Sick Leave, Study Finds

    URL: socialpsychology.org/client/re

    Source: Google News - Health

    GLP-1 drugs could lead to cost savings for workers and their employers by reducing employee sick leave, a U.S. government study finds. Researchers found that patients who used the drugs, sold under brand names such as Ozempic and Wegovy, took 17% less long-term sick leave than people who didn't. The study, published this month by the National Bureau of Economic Research, defines long-term sick leave as illness-related absences lasting more than...

  6. Lees tip -> Boete DPG Media voor artikelen over Ozempic en Wegovy blijft staan | Volgens de rechtbank hadden artikelen in Flair en De Stentor een aanprijzend karakter en ging het om verboden publieksreclame voor receptgeneesmiddelen. | #DPGMedia #IGJ #Geneesmiddelenwet #DeStentor #rechtbankAmsterdam #Wegovy #Flair #publieksreclame #Ozempic |

  7. CW: CW: auspol, PBS, Ozempic.

    #Wegovy’s approval hangs on formulating strict health criteria to limit expenditure whilst still addressing #PublicHealth needs.

    Until then, it’s largely patients who can afford $250-300/month out-of-pocket who enjoy its numerous #health benefits, a cohort that can generally afford healthier #nutrition and lifestyle practices anyway.

    Once again, it seems, the best health advice is: “Don’t be poor.” 🤬 (2/2)

  8. CW: CW: auspol, PBS, Ozempic.

    #Ozempic’s partially subsided by the #PharmaceuticalBenefitsScheme for blood glucose management and pre-surgery weight loss. #Wegovy—the same drug, #semaglutide, sold under a different name to treat #obesity and other conditions—currently isn’t, though it’s looking positive.

    ~65% of #Australia’s population could benefit from GLP-1 agonists, but the #PBS can’t possibly meet eligible demand. (1/2)
