Will Continuous Glucose Monitors Surpass the Juicing Fad? conscienhealth.org/2024/08/will-c…

The #ESCCongress in London this week made one thing clear – everyone in mainstream medicine is now ready to claim the disease of #obesity. Money talks and science advances. conscienhealth.org/2024/09/esc-co…

Ted Kyle Although treatments for obesity have been around for a while, having a publicly visible, non-surgical, effective treatment has “made” obesity a disease. GLP1s—inadvertently—have been excellent marketing tools, cracking the “obesity is a disease” nut 🥜 .

What’s not to like about this? Swiss food scientists have devised a process for making #chocolate that is more #PlanetFriendly and requires less #AddedSugar. If you ever felt guilt about enjoying a little bit of chocolate, let it go. conscienhealth.org/2024/09/health…

Is there any combo on earth better than chocolate and peanut butter? Note to self: "little bit." "If you ever felt guilt about enjoying a little bit of chocolate, let it go." Making Chocolate More Planet Friendly While Adding Less Sugar - ConscienHealth conscienhealth.org/2024/09/health…

Ted Kyle Chocolate 🍫 (like it's cousin coffee ☕️), may well be a "healthy vice." 🤓 Well done, Switzerland 🇨🇭, although let's not forget the Maya and the Aztecs! Ref: Chocolate, “Food of the Gods”: History, Science, and Human Health ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… #chocolate #health

We ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Profound change is coming. Health systems are struggling to hold back demand for remarkable new #ObesityMedicines. But their efforts are much like trying to push water uphill with a broom – futile. The need is real. conscienhealth.org/2024/09/obesit…

Obesity Care at Scale Will Profoundly Change Health Systems - Ted Kyle conscienhealth.org/2024/09/obesit…

Feels like one of those Hemingway "gradually then suddenly" situations. Obesity Care at Scale Will Profoundly Change Health Systems - ConscienHealth conscienhealth.org/2024/09/obesit…

Change is coming. Resistance is futile. An institution can sweep water 🌊 up a hill with a broom 🧹 for only so long. At some point, the institution gets swept away. Will Big Food go first? Or will it be Big Healthcare?

I haven't heard much talk about this, but in 10+ years, I anticipate a reduction in caregiver burden (and the industry that surrounds it) because #obesity treatment is extending #healthspan and preventing end-stage disease
