    GLP-1, omezpic, and WEGOVY also is a threat to alcohol industry.

    Why? Do thin people not drink?

      Ozempic and the like also affect impulse control (and a whole lot of other stuff, the health effect research is technically ongoing).

      So if you’re on it you don’t feel the desire to snack, it helps you moderate yourself, and I guess it stands to reason it would lower the impulse to drink too.

      Though I’m just guessing here, take this with a grain of salt.
