Disordered eating, body-shaming Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive

"It’s an unwinnable system made toxic to the core by generations of the world defining the ideal woman’s body as that of a child, of hating fatness so much that self-harm is preferable to largeness, and of turning it all into a for-profit spectacle." https://gossip-reading-club.ghost.io/why-we-can-not-talk-about-ariana-grande/ #PublicHealth #obesity #overweight #underweight #fat #glp1 #diets #EatingDisorders

Here is another indicator of the distance between the global North and South but also another form of #classwar in the "advanced economies". Healthy diet too expensive for one in three people globally, UN report finds https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2026/jul/21/healthy-diet-too-expensive-for-one-in-three-people-globally-un-report-finds One in three people cannot afford to eat a healthy diet, a new report has found, prompting calls for urgent action on food affordability. There are 2.69 billion people unable to afford a diverse diet that meets their energy and nutrient needs. The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2026 report calculated the cost of a healthy diet is 4.28 purchasing power parity (PPP) dollars a day. This means that in any given country, a healthy diet costs the amount of local currency with the same buying power that >>>>> $4.28<<< has in the US. “The extreme poverty line is $3PPP per person,” Torero said. “So it’s significantly higher.” In Africa, 66.6% of the population was unable to afford a healthy diet in 2025, more than double the levels observed in #Asia or #LatinAmerica and the #Caribbean. #Africa is now home to the highest number of hungry people for the first time, with about 309 million, surpassing Asia’s 292 million. Another of the #UN agencies behind the report, show adult #obesity rose from 12.1% in 2012 to 16.2% in 2024.

Update: New Options for Weight Loss The landscape of metabolic medicine is shifting beneath our feet. For the last few years, the conversation has been dominated by weekly injections like #Zepbound (#tirzepatide), #Wegovy (#semaglutide), #Foundayo (#orforglipron) and #retatrutide. https://bit.ly/4sbhJVl #obesity #WeightLoss
