The weight-loss drug divide: private prescribing is lowest where need is greatest (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For many people living with obesity, Wegovy and Mounjaro offer the possibility of substantial weight loss without surgery. Yet data from one private provider points to a troubling divide: prescription rates of these drugs in England are lowest in communities where obesity is most common. Wegovy contains semaglutide, which acts on the GLP-1 hormone pathway involved in appetite. Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, which targets both GLP-1 and another hormone pathway called GIP. In trials involving adul
Does timing matter when you take supplements? Here’s what the evidence says (opens the original)

Supplement shelves can give the impression that almost everyone needs something. Yet for generally healthy adults, a review of 84 studies found that routine vitamin and mineral supplements offered little or no protection against cardiovascular disease, cancer or early death. Taking a supplement without a clear reason may also cause harm. High doses of some water-soluble vitamins can cause harm, and too much vitamin B6, for example, has been linked to nerve damage. Some fat-soluble vitamins, part
Why children often eat less in hot weather – and when parents should worry (opens the original)

If your child suddenly starts picking at meals during a spell of hot weather, it can be unsettling. But a smaller appetite for a few days can be a normal response to heat, particularly if your child is drinking well, has their usual energy and seems otherwise healthy. Research directly examining heat and appetite in children is limited. Studies in adults, together with experimental research into the biology of appetite, suggest that warmer conditions can reduce food intake and affect some of the

“Have another drink.” It can become a familiar refrain for parents during a heatwave, particularly when a child is busy playing and has little interest in stopping for a glass of water. Keeping up fluid intake becomes more important as temperatures rise because heat increases water loss, particularly through sweating. But a child’s fluid intake does not have to come solely from a cup or water bottle – the water in food also counts. That contribution can be substantial. An analysis of Australian
