Episode 2623: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss news items that address junk food in the SNAP program, weight loss drug risks, and more. Weight Loss Drug Risks Several states are trying to ban junk foods from being purchased from the SNAP program. (10:00) Each state defines junk food differently, but many define it as soda and candy. (13:30) The focus is trying to get people to purchase whole foods. The American Heart Association is pushing back against this move. (21:00) The various reasons the AHA gives are discussed and not all of them make sense. Vinnie and Chris review the list of companies and how much they contribute to the AHA each year. (28:15) One excuse claims the number of products is “just too hard” to list. The UK is now banning ads for junk food. (35:45) They discuss the drug Jardiance and the health disclaimers at the end of the ad. (38:00) Next in the discussion is Zepbound, which was used for sleep apnea, but is also marketed as a weight loss drug. (47:30) Vinnie emphasizes that going low-carb will give you none of the side effects that the medications will have.
