This will kick the GLP-1RA revolution in a new gear. it’s already one of the most common drug classes in the US and not having to inject and falling prices (see Novo Nodirsk’s subscription model) will help with access.
I started r/proactivehealth about 6 weeks ago as a space to post and discuss proactive health, longevity and related topics without the influencer guru worship. I really got into the community building aspect and worked very hard to find interesting stories every day. Yesterday, I hit 1k members which had been my goal for a
I have spent the last two weeks trying to get the subreddit r/proactivehealth of the ground. I took the initiative of creating it after I got again disappointed by one of the influencer-names forums going to hell because the influencer turned out to be of questionable character. starting the Reddit community was a lot of
I went to the DMV last week Totally routine paperwork to get the RealID star and that brutally honest camera they use that somehow makes everyone look slightly guilty. Five years ago, I sat in that same spot for my last license photo. When the new license cane in the mail today, I pulled out

On my weight loss journey for a year only tracked scale weight but I finally wanted to gain more insights. Dexa scans are widely considered the gold standard for body composition analysis, in addition to their original target of bone density analysis. I found a Health/Fitness optimization place nearby that had a Dexa machine and
I am not a fan of going to public gyms and prefer to work out at home. I really only occasionally use hotel gyms or my office building’s gym. Our house has a big-ish two car garage that was totally unfinished (raw studs) and full of junk. This fall I finally decided to do something
