Chris Willx:本期节目探讨了 Ozempic 等新型减肥药的有效性和安全性,以及其对社会和个体的影响。主持人认为,该药物的出现是健康领域的一次重大变革,但同时也需要谨慎评估其潜在风险。 Johann Hari:作者本人通过亲身服用 Ozempic 并进行全球范围内的调查研究,对该药物的益处和风险进行了深入探讨。他认为,Ozempic 等药物在减肥方面效果显著,但同时也存在潜在的副作用,例如恶心、便秘、心率加快等。此外,长期服用该药物的风险尚不明确,需要进一步研究。作者还探讨了该药物对社会文化的影响,以及其与饮食习惯、心理健康等方面之间的关系。作者最终建议,BMI 指数低于 27 的人群不应服用该药物,而 BMI 指数高于 35 的人群则应谨慎权衡利弊后决定是否服用。 Johann Hari:作者详细阐述了 GLP-1 激动剂与以往减肥药的不同之处,以及其作用机制。他指出,该类药物通过延长 GLP-1 激素在体内的作用时间来抑制食欲,其作用机制不仅涉及肠道,也涉及大脑,改变人们对食物的渴望。作者还探讨了该药物对不同人群的影响,以及其潜在的长期风险,例如甲状腺癌风险增加、肌肉流失等。此外,作者还分析了社会肥胖率上升的原因,指出这与人们饮食习惯的改变密切相关,即从新鲜食物转向加工食品。作者认为,GLP-1 激动剂是针对加工食品导致的食欲问题的人工解决方案,但同时也带来自身风险。
