The Joe Rogan Experience but but fat is fat and and it's not it's just not healthy even if you find it beautiful or sexy or whatever you want it it's just science it's bad for literally every part of your health from how you poop to your eyesight there's nothing that obesity doesn't affect negatively you know who doesn't get any of that uh body positivity [ __ ] though is men nobody gives a [ __ ] about men if a matter of fact you're just fat that's like when James Corden tried that [ __ ] with you yes yes it was such an obvious Ploy oh you're hurting my feelings oh yes thought shaming like first of all that guy's fat from food he's not like oh my God he's got a genetic disorder he's just that's not guys obviously not working out and living living a good life eating some nice food and a little plump yeah an invisible interesting and wow and interesting a year or so after he made his big Crusade against me um he signed a big contract I think with Weight Watchers you know it turned right around um but even Weight Watchers is out of style because now we we have we've given up on the idea uh that obesity is something that can be contained uh by exercise and diet it's now a disease I mean these new uh drugs they have ozempic yeah I was reading about ozempic uh I didn't know this until recently they have zero clue why it works they know that it works just not why this would bother me a little you know it should that if they're they're giving me something and and they're like hey this new Miracle pill just take it we're working on the reason why it might do this to you but until then just [ __ ] it there's no biological free lunch either I have friends that are on that stuff and one friend who just got off of it because he was having some serious gastrointestinal issues that are Apparently one of the side effects it's not there's no free lunch if you're taking an injection that makes you less hungry something's going on that's probably not good yes and you're also losing a lot of connective tissue bone mass and muscle mass uh my
good friend Peter attia did a study on his patients he's a doctor did a study on patients that took ozampic and one of the things they found is they lost weight but they gain fat they were actually had a higher percentage of body fat because they were primarily losing muscle tissue and connective tissue they were losing so much of that that even though the they lost like 20 pounds they actually went from like 15 body fat to maybe 20 body fat or whatever the number was but what I what I find the most alarming is the way in just a matter of a few years the group think that this is a disease now now that cannot be controlled by what for 50 100 a million years before this it was the scientific consensus that of course you can control it yeah with diet and exercise just in a couple of years that went out the window and you cannot read you cannot find an article uh on the front page or in the op-ed page of the New York Times in the last couple of years that has any other belief than this one that it is a disease it is not within a person's control so they're all in on a zenpic or whatever else because we certainly can't leave this to people themselves to control it that's a giant sea change and the way they sheep like just go right in a row yeah no dissent not one person standing up in the paper of record to say wait a second this can't really be the case I mean 50 years ago we look like a completely different people yeah why is it in 50 years did we evolve in 50 years human beings was cake not delicious 1969 I think it was and yet some somehow people resisted it well there's a lot of diet changes for sure and I think one of the things about the narrative there was there was a lot of influence by vested interests like you know I'm sure you know about the 1950s I believe it was where the uh sugar industry paid off scientists of course to uh yeah to put the blame on well saturated fat it changed people's eating and corn yeah corn corn they changed what the sugar came from because they had too much corn because they subsidized it yeah so let's make sugar out of corn which is not really what you should be making the right I mean cane sugar is not great for you either but it's bigger better than
corn you see the Obesity rates go up as the as corn syrup but it's still within someone's power to turn it down you're not helpless there's plenty of people out there that have done it too that you can get examples from I mean especially in this day and age with YouTube and these social media influencers that have lost a ton of weight some of those people have gone on diets and lost a 150 pounds and they'll tell you how they did it and you can get inspiration from them it's not rocket science it's doable but it's not easy and the idea of calling it a disease it's interesting because we kind of agree alcoholism is a disease but it is similar because you are addicted to food like people are absolutely addicted to food especially high fructose corn syrup products and things where there's like you're getting that Big Sugar Rush and the insulin spikes and well they they do this in the lab you know I mean they have all these food companies thanks all these food companies have Labs where they go in and they test how much fat and sugar and salt we can put in this thing to make it as addictive as possible you know they don't want you to just eat one about Lays Potato you bet you can't they want you to have the whole bag and then start another bag yeah
