Show Notes

Federal regulators have approved Eli Lillys new weight-loss pill, Foundayo, a once-daily oral medication for obesity and related conditions. It mimics a hormone to curb hunger and boost fullness, with prices starting at $25 per month. Foundayo stands out for its small-molecule form and lack of dietary restrictions, unlike Novo Nordisks Wegovy. Trials showed improvements in waist size, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels, but gut side effects were significant. The approval aligns with the Trump administrations efforts to reduce GLP-1 drug costs, potentially increasing access to weight-loss treatments.
