Fat is inflammatory, especially visceral fat, so reducing that fat naturally reduces inflammation.

There’s a feedback loop with inflammation and fat. We’ve been telling people for decades to break the cycle by losing weight, but we also have studies that say you can only sustain about 7.5% weight loss per year. Anything more tends to rebound.

Then GLP-1 comes along and we stop fat negativity/positivity overnight.
