Stopping obesity with ozempic might extend lifespan but it won’t fully correct loss of health span due to poor nutrition and lack of exercise. I don’t know if any drugs can correct for a poor lifestyle. They can correct for some major issues caused by poor lifestyle, but cardiovascular disease is only one slice of that miserable pie.

Given their reputation for making people energetic (not having any interest I've never tried), I wonder if ecstasy and cocaine lead to exercise?
