A consequence of climate change being worsening sleep apnea is something I never even considered. 🍎🧪

This is such a tremendous loss for nutrition and obesity research. Truly hope you are able to continue your work elsewhere especially in Ultra-processed foods.
After 21 years at my dream job, I’m very sad to announce my early retirement from the National Institutes of Health. My life’s work has been to scientifically study how our food environment affects what we eat, and how what we eat affects our physiology.

This is such an amazing study. Researchers tracked people over 300,000 births looking at how biomarkers change & recover postpartum. ~60% stabilise close to pre-conception levels after 3 months, but some (eg for bone & liver health) take a year. Others never recover! 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Are tirzepatide and semaglutide cost effective? Although they would reduce 20,854 & 19,211 cases of DM2 and 10,655 and 8263 cases of CVD per 100K respectively, their prices would require a 30.5% and 81.9% reduction from current price to be “cost-effective" #Medsky 🧪
