Wow, what can't these GLP-1 drugs do? Not only making you thin, but boosts for cardiovascular health, blood pressure & inflammation related illness & apparently improving outlooks for some cancers, too.

As they are now entering their generic era in territories around the world (India, Brazil & Canada in 2026), we should start to see dramatic health improvements in these countries.

Now, a new study provides the first randomized, placebo-controlled clinical evidence that semaglutide, a widely used GLP-1 drug, slows down the accumulation of biological aging markers in the DNA of adults with HIV.
