@KeruboSk Seems to good to be true, doesn’t it? 🤨

Ozempic was designed for diabetes. Then it became the biggest weight loss drug in history. Now a massive new study shows it also significantly reduces depression, anxiety, and addiction risk. One drug. Three completely different conditions. Science is barely keeping up with what GLP-1s are doing The study found that people taking semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy) saw major drops in depression and anxiety alongside the weight loss effects everyone already knew about. It also showed reduced risk of substance use disorders. A weight loss drug that may help treat addiction. Nobody predicted that.

@muscleforlife 🔥

Tip: Don’t tell people on Ozempic that if they ate the same amount of food without the Ozempic, they'd lose the same amount of weight. They get very angry.

Just for the record, I block statin drug pushers.

@drmarkhyman Why is everyone pushing it so darn hard? Menopause is not a disease.

What questions do you have about hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—and what’s been most confusing or frustrating about it?

@drozcanyucel @DrNeilStone I know, right? Even little old me was able to read the chart when it was released and determine I wasn’t at risk.

@DrNeilStone Why did you get a vaccine—something unprecedented in human history with uncertain effects—for an illness that you would survive with a 99.998% probability if you got sick?

I've had the mRNA Covid vaccine Didn't get myocarditis Me and 99.994% of people who got the vaccine

@CentristAllWay @Paddy_Barrett This is the way.

@Paddy_Barrett I think we need to start giving statins to 6 month olds. Is there a statin vaccine we can inject along with MMR, Hep-B, TDAP, Covid, HPV etc? Cholesterol, although it is natural, is just as bad as a virus or bacteria.

Autopsy studies show fatty streaks in arteries as early as the teens and 20s. Atherosclerosis starts far earlier than most people think.

@drmarkhyman Because they are sheep.

Why does your doctor check your cholesterol but not your insulin levels?

@HankFrank Agree with every bit of this. I need far less fuel, electrolytes and water than is the common recommendation. We are all an N=1

No fuel. No water. 20 miles. Sounds insane right? Look at the heart rate. 116 bpm average. This was an easy effort. At this intensity your body is primarily burning fat and the glycogen demand is low. If you fuel and hydrate well the night before and morning of, you can absolutely get through 20 easy miles without eating or drinking mid run. Especially in mild weather. Now if this was a tempo long run or a hard effort? Different story. You’d want fuel on board for anything over 90 minutes at intensity. Should most people fuel on long runs? Yes. But the answer changes depending on effort level, pre-run nutrition, and weather. Context matters.

@Siddurp2 63 here. Most of my peers are at their weekly doctor appointments and lined up at the pharmacy. I’m kicking ass and taking names.

Can anyone tell me what exactly are the benefits of running daily? Because all I see are people destroying their knees and posting Strava screenshots.

@chaseharris98 Absolute paradise. 🏝️

Move to Florida. If you’re stuck in life that’s all you need to do. Country mixed with money vibe. Sunshine, wild life, water. No rules here can do whatever you want. Hottest girls. Max activities. Cold weather doesn’t bring the best out of you. No shoes no shirt lifestyle will

Stunning how people have fallen for this as a good screening.

@TheRabbitHole Now do the medical establishment.

Legacy media has lost the trust of the people.

@Brady_H Yes. 🙌

Long run on a Friday? Why not. Easy 20. No water. No fuel. I believe that’s what the kids today call “raw dogging it.”

@spencertbarber It’s not a Boomer trait. It’s an Old People trait. You’ll get there too.

I hate to play into generational stereotypes, but they can feel very real sometimes. I was traveling with my family last night, and we were in the hotel hot tub with two baby boomer couples. They were going off about how much golf they’re playing. The conversation shifted to the war, and first they complained about Trump’s speech interrupting their shows, then about how the war is hurting their retirement accounts. It was amazing to me that two couples who probably don’t have more than 15 years left didn’t say one thing about their posterity for a whole hour, but talked about golf, TV, and stock prices. I’m a millennial, but I have daily conversations with multiple people from Gen Z, and the attitude feels completely different. Gen Z seems optimistic but realistic. They know the fate of the future is in their hands, and they’re focused on making sure things are better for their future kids. I honestly don’t know what happened to the baby boomers. I know many are great, but many can also be intolerable.

@runliftrunlift 50mpw was tough for me. Tired a lot. A couple of months later though - easy peasy.

The fitness jump from 20 to 30 miles per week (32 to 48 km) up to a consistent 40 miles (64 km) is massive. When runners ask about workouts and getting faster, I usually ask back, “Have you ever put together 3 to 4 months of consistent 40 mile weeks?” If the answer is no, that’s your answer to getting faster. Not new workouts or more workouts. More consistent volume. It takes time. If your true easy pace is around 9:30 to 10:00 per mile (5:55 to 6:12 per km), you’re looking at roughly 6 to 7 hours of running per week. That’s the buy-in. It’s a commitment, no doubt. But for a lot of runners, the move to 40+ mile weeks, held consistently for several months, is exactly what takes them to the next level.

@Dav_Kaiser @mistressdivy Emotionally? You are absolutely right. Men do suffer more. Financially? No.

@HaymakerJoani @mistressdivy i call this BS. But as we are told all the time, men are not human beings.

So I work at a men’s divorce law firm, and I see this all the time. Guys get such a bad rap when they end up divorced, especially middle-aged with kids. People love to mock their appearance on dating apps or joke about “divorced dads” like it’s funny, but it’s honestly pretty cruel. These men have usually just gone through brutal battles.. in court, with their ex, financially drained, emotionally exhausted. Many have lost a ton of money, time with their kids, and their sense of stability. Now they’re trying to pick themselves back up, put themselves out there, and find someone who actually values them as a person.. something their ex maybe never did. It’s not desperate. It’s resilient. Starting over after divorce isn’t easy, especially when society acts like you’re damaged goods or a punchline just because you’re a middle-aged dad trying to date again. Cut them some slack. A little kindness and respect goes a long way when someone’s rebuilding their life. Respect to all the divorced dads out there grinding through it. You’re not alone ♥️

Hahaha!

@dom_lucre They always reveal themselves.

🔥🚨BREAKING NEWS: Florida Governor candidate James Fishback told a Black man he should be “lynched” after he asked him to stop talking to young girls. Black man:”Did you smash was it missionary, back shots, what was it?’ Fishback: I don’t want you ever speaking about women in our state like that again. Black man: “I don’t want you smashing teenage girls in our state ever again” Fishback: “Why haven’t I been arrested, Why haven’t I been arrested?” Black Man: “I don’t know” Fishback: “You should be lynched, you should be lynched for lying about me like that. Yes you should be lynched for lying about me like that.”

@slayerment @Manderville_RD Amen.

@Manderville_RD I tend to refer to the latest scriptures passed down by the Church of Science to determine which financier-backed experiment fits the sales pitch recited to me by my doctor.

People who claim LDL doesn't matter never seem to explain what to do if ApoB is high.

Relative vs absolute risk
