The products "address crucial aspects of weight management for individuals using GLP-1 medications," says the food giant like "muscle preservation, gut health, micronutrient intake, hydration, skin and hair health, and weight rebound control."

Junk Food Marketing Ignored in the US-- Too Lucrative
Not all cultures think surgery and pharmaceutical products are the answer to obesity. Instead of monetizing the food "space.," they seek root causes.
Recently, the UK Department of Health and Social Care Media Centre (DHSC) announced a ban on television junk food advertising between the hours of 5:30 AM and 9:00 PM to protect children from marketing-related obesity. A ban!

sugary soft drinks
breakfast cereals
chocolates and sweets
ice cream
pastries, desserts and puddings
pizzas
prepared meals and sandwiches
