“Downstream from obesity and metabolic dysfunction there are lots of problems if OIC comes in and reduces those problems would that not be a net positive is not the correct societal intervention for obesity if just let's use common sense and we're getting divorced from our common sense I think with deal is a big debate if we start jabbing the majority of Americans with a lifetime injection that causes so much gut dysfunction our body tricks itself into not eating it's liquefied anorexia it's it's a liquid crash diet and those people are continuing to be sedentary and continuing to eat Ultra processed crap are we going to see reduced comorbidities and and improved health over the next 30 years that's an interesting question I guess it depends on how much weight contributes to most of the problems Downstream.”
