The rise of the GLP1-RA weight loss drugs Ozempic and Mounjaro are drawing much negative attention and judgement for those people using them, namely calling it 'cheating'. The same judgement is cast on many men using Testosterone Replacement Therapy. Join us as we discuss where this judgement comes from and why it's nobody business if you choose to use any of these drugs.

Diets have been tribal for thousands of years and this tribal nature has not changed. It used to be that your diet tribe was associated with the region where you lived or your religion. Now it's expanding to include tribes of people eating only meat, or vegan, or paleo, or high fat, low carb, high protein, ketogenic etc, based on some idea that its scientifically 'better' than the other ways. In today's show we talk about how diets have become and identity and a tribe people associated themselves with more than just a way of eating that you enjoy for the sake of the food itself. We try to bring some sanity to this topic and arrive at the idea that food is just food and to enjoy whatever kind you want, and feel free to change how you eat whenever you feel like it. In the end it's not your identity or a tribe, it's just food.

In this episode John and Brad discuss the harsh judgment people are getting for using weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro, and even more unfortunately for also not using them. There seems to be a harsh criticism for both being overweight or obese, and also for attempting to lose weight using anything other than hard dieting and intensive exercise. We dig into why this judgement seems to be happening and how to deal with it if you choose to use one of these drugs to lose weight.

In this episode John and Brad trace the diet and fitness industry's evolution from when they started 25 years ago, noting shifts from gatekeepers to counterculture and the impact of social media. John shares his journey from using anabolic steroids in college and how he ultimately overcame his body dysmorphia. He goes on to share how he discovered that he had cancer and caught it early. They share how we can all benefit from his example emphasizing the importance of taking your health into your own hands. They discuss the significance of individual goals and continual reassessment, and that the look and shape of your body is a great starting point to assess your overall health, but it cannot tell you everything about your health.
