Study Links Weight Loss Drugs to Increased Food Waste

A study published in "Nutrients" reveals that one in four users of GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy report increased food waste after starting the medication. The research, led by Ohio State University's Brian Roe, surveyed over 500 users and found that those on the medication longer tend to waste less food, suggesting adjustments in purchasing habits. The drugs, which reduce appetite and alter food preferences, have seen a rise in use, particularly among younger individuals, with significant implications for health and food sectors.

"Chrono-Nutrition Study Reveals Optimal Dinner Timing for Enhanced Calorie Burn and Weight Loss"

A study published in Cell Metabolism indicates that eating later in the day may increase the risk of obesity by affecting calorie burn rates, hunger levels, and fat storage. The research, involving 16 overweight or obese participants, found that late eaters had lower levels of the fullness hormone leptin, burned calories more slowly, and showed changes in gene expression that favored fat storage over breakdown. These findings suggest that adjusting meal times to earlier in the day could be a simpler strategy for managing weight and reducing obesity risk, independent of diet and exercise. Further research is needed, particularly involving more women and the impact of sleep timing on these processes.
