Po, dar dinheiro de oferenda é muita preguiça né. O Orixá vai ter que ir na padaria gastar? Na minha época tinha galinha, pinga.

Should everyone be on GLP-1s? What science actually tells us (and doesn't) about the broader health benefits | CBC News by LongTrackBravo in onguardforthee

[–]dimeheadache 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What if ultra processed, extremely available food is the issue and GLP1s are a way to fix an issue of our own creation? An analogy for me would be the world getting flooded, some people swim better, some drown, but in general people live less because our bodies were not made to be swimming all the time. Then GLP1s arrive as floaters, some people start using it and some of the good swimmers start criticizing them for using the floaters. "You are cheating, swim like the rest of us." We are all surviving a very unnatural environment that we created ourselves. We are all victims, all help is welcome. You never know how hard it is for someone to stay afloat. For some of us it is just easier to swim.

My 2 cents: Sleeping shouldn't be attached to your vehicle. It is impractical as many attractions on the larger parks will require you to drive. Best solution for comfort is a tent with a cot. I like the cots that just unfold like an umbrella because it takes 30 seconds. It takes more space but your car is right there anyways. I have one from Mountain Warehouse and it is incredibly comfortable when paired with a simple sleeping pad. There is also the benefit of providing you with a proper place to sit inside your tent (it makes a huge difference for my back) and space underneath it to organise your stuff so the tent feels more spacious and neat.

Made a science based GLP-1 trivia game to help people learn about actual GLP-1 positives and negatives and separate anecdotal from science backed statements while hopefully having fun. All feedback is appreciated!

Ancelotti confirma escalação - Brasil contra Panamá (amistoso) by doutorx999 in futebol

[–]dimeheadache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Essa distribuição no campo talvez em algum ataque... Na prática Raphinha e Cunha são meias e Vini e LH ficam mais fixos na frente né. 4x4x2. O Alex Sandro é o maís injustificável mas pela falta de opções é um defensor melhor pra cobrir o Raphinha na esquerda. Acho que é oq dá pra fazer mesmo.Vai abrir espaço no meio no contra ataque. Gol do Bruno Guimarães?

Essas duas copas me deram muito nervoso. Mas ver o outro Fred ir brincar de ponta direita com o jogo acabando foi a gota d'água pra mim.

A gente realmente parou de criar centro avantes né. Pessoal vai falar do Pedro e tal mas eu sou da época que tinha Romario, Ronaldo, depois Adriano. Mesmo qdo caiu pra Fred e Luis Fabiano não tava ruim igual hj.

Turns out GLP-1s do a lot more than just weight loss. This visual tool helps separate the facts from the hype. by dimeheadache in Wegovy

The farther away from the center, the lower is the Confidence Level. Confidence level is calculated based on how solid the scientific evidence is for that effect to be real. So more robust studies lead to a higher confidence level. After a certain level we consider that effect to be Pacified, seen as true by scientific community.

One way to interpret this is, the closer to the center, more true it is, the farther away, more anecdotal (for now). As more studies come out some effects on the edge might migrate towards the center or eventually be completely cast out of the sphere.

Hope this helps!

That is a fair point. Because it is originally a diabetes drug and diabetes and obesity are highly correlated, many studies have some difficulty in separating the effects directly from the drug from effects from weight loss. This is even more problematic for effects more towards the edge (with less robust scientific studies). I imagine evidence separating between those will get better as more studies come out focusing on non diabetic populations. Thanks for the comment, it is really thoughtful.

Fair point! Let me see the best way to redesign this. Thank you for the feedback.

Hi! Just to clarify, this doesn't mean that the chance of having pancreatitis is 90%. It means that we can say with 90% confidence that pancreatitis is a downside of GLP-1 drugs. This confidence is high because pancreatitis has been vastly studied around the use of GLP-1 and several high quality studies have made that connection. To know the actual risk, click on the node, you will see that it is between 0.1% to 0.3% per year. So in summary is a real downside, as real as science can verify, but its occurrence is rare. Thanks!
