A CDC survey suggests America’s obesity rate may be falling.
Key Takeaways
- Recent data shows a slight decline in US obesity rates, but experts caution it’s too early to declare a turning point in the obesity epidemic.
- GLP-1 agonists show promise in combating obesity as trials demonstrate the drugs help people lose 10–20% of their body weight and reduce their risk of weight-related health problems.
- However, the high cost and limited insurance coverage of GLP-1 agonists present significant barriers to widespread adoption, and other preventative initiatives would need to be adopted to keep obesity trends declining.
The high cost of food is one of the causes of the obesity epidemic. Fresh food is expensive, and cheap food is full of sugar and salt because they are preservatives. Food processing and mass production creates cheap, unhealthy, addictive food.
