Key points, in the speaker’s own framing
- And uh we actually have studies that go in opposite directions in terms of there’s been two studies that look at just observational analysis, people following people over time in the real world.
- And one study showed that there was a reduction in that bone density in people who started taking a GLP-1.
- So when that happens that means we need more rigorous studies, not just observing people over time in the real world, but really that randomized clinical trial.
- When we look at hundreds of thousands of people and we look at what’s the risk of developing different conditions or what’s the risk of dying, BMI does relatively well.
Yeah, and then maybe, you know, we might be able to circumnavigate those gastrointestinal side effects, for example, and get a better response and and get to our our goal in terms of and someone’s health.
- Um you know, one under thought of risk especially or side effect especially from the the doctor’s point of view is is hair loss.
