Healthcare vs Evolution: Can GLP-1s Rewrite Our Evolutionary Story?
Our evolutionary tale began 6 million years ago, when humans were programmed to hoard calories in a world of scarcity. Today, that ancient wiring has become our greatest health risk.
With public understanding divided on the causes of obesity, this PoV transcends the debate between personal responsibility and disease status to offer a fresh perspective – that obesity is an evolutionary trap. Specifically, it examines:
- Why human biology creates an inherent vulnerability to obesity
- How amplifying our natural GLP-1 levels can address multiple different diseases
- The current status of GLP-1 drug approvals by condition
- The unprecedented questions we now face about equity, access & our collective future
