Sure, but so what? Until we can permanently change aspects of our brain, like our proclivity for addiction, then all interventions are bandaids on top of an underlying problem.

Even behavioral changes like avoiding fast food don't fix the underlying problem in your brain. It's topical.

It's amazing how the subject of Ozempic brings out such trivial claims uttered with a serious face.
