Exercise and GLP-1s are very different interventions. To liken them appears fallacious.

Exercise is much more than weight loss; it is heart health, bone health, immune health, etc.

You can walk an hour on the calories of a candy bar, but you’ll get malnutrition relying solely on candy bars.

Healthy nutrition requires more than eating less.

If someone develops an injection that makes you want to cook yourself some whole foods then we’ll be talking.

They are different but two sides of the same coin

> Healthy nutrition requires more than eating less.

Except in specific cases, this is mostly not true. Food in the modern era is very nutrient dense. This is why vitamin pills are mostly a placebo; you're getting an overabundance of nutrients in your diet already.

The first principal component of healthy nutrition is simply _eating less_. Eating less reduces your risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, injury when you are older, and on and on.

Calories in calories out as they say.
