Maybe we need to talk more about school lunch programs than putting every kid on Ozempic. And that is not a conversation that we're having. We're just sort of celebrating, hey, high five. We found a way to create a GLP-1 agonist. We'll see about these new generation GLP-1 drugs that have a blocker on the muscle receptor, supposedly. They're going to enter clinical trial soon. Yeah.

So to prevent the muscle loss. Yeah, prevent it or reduce it. Maybe. I believe in impeccable objectivity, changing positions as the data evolve. Right now, I have serious concerns about just giving out GLP-1s like candy. For side effects-wise or just beyond the muscle loss? The acceleration of frailty, the muscle loss, there – Some people don't do well with the profound loss of muscle.

I do think everyone that goes into medicine is going in it for amazing reasons. And one thing that unites everybody in medicine is everyone has a sense of compassion that drew us into this calling. So we've got good people. But we walk into a bad system, and it's not a system we designed. It's a system we inherited. But we shouldn't defend it. It's entirely broken.

At the very top, these are folks – where we need term limits, the folks where they decide what's important or not important, and it's based on their understanding of the world.
