@jenniferplusplus Many years ago I heard of a case where someone sold tapeworm eggs as cure against obesity. Seems to work in the short run. I have no idea of this is true, maybe just a story, but it is kind of a similar situation: a parasitic organism, sold as a remedy, but ultimately harms more than users imagine.
(Just in case someone might think that tapeworm scheme is a better business idea than Ozempic: no, it’s not, really. Infecting people is frowned upon. At least where I live.
