> can "cure" brain tumour with painkillers too. That's the same thing - silencing symptoms, while the cause persists
Bad comparison. Taking painkillers doesn’t cause the underlying condition to go away. GLP-1 agonists do. The obesity goes away. The inflammation goes away. Hell, the dietary choices get changed. In some cases, including ones I’ve personally seen multiple times now, even after treatment is stopped.
> If they exercise, that's normal they gain weight. Muscles build up
They’re not gaining a persistent few pounds of muscle in a week that then get worked off with exercise.
The next few generations of humanity are going to be genuinely fascinating. One group with fewer and fewer transmissible diseases, without obesity, aging slower. The other anti-vax, anti-medicine and whatnot.

So it's water. Btw, do they also report every meal they ate to you? I doubt. People are lying, so I wouldn't trust in their calories counting.
> The obesity goes away.
Just like pain, obesity is a symptom of something else being broken - diet, serious illness, mental issues, invalid hormone levels, etc. Sure you probably can get rid of obesity with a magic pill, but the underlying problem persists. Obesity doesn't come from the air - basic laws of physics.

That's precisely what healthy lifestyle does to the human body. You don't need to pay for magic pills, just keep balanced diet, exercise, sleep well.
> The other anti-vax, anti-medicine and whatnot.
Being sceptical about what you put into your body is wise. Not every vaccine is needed. Not every medicine is there to help you.
