    We know that diabetes is a "heart attack" equivalent. As in if you have diabetes, your risk for heart attack is as if you've already had one, which is to say higher.

    ANY control over your weight, diet, and smoking can help reduce the risk. Semaglutide is nothing new, it's been around for two decades now. It's another medication in a long list of medications that can help people with diabetes.

    What I'm saying is that, if you need it, you should get it. If you don't need it, don't be lazy, just do the lifestyle stuff.
