A wonderfully accessible exploration of one of the most complex problems of our time. "Magic Pill" will help you think more clearly about nutrition, diet, health, and mental health, even if you don't touch Ozempic. Author Johann Hari examines the new drugs that are transforming weight loss as we know it, sharing his personal experience with Ozempic and analyzing our ability to heal society's dysfunctional relationship with food, weight, and our bodies. In early 2023, Johann Hari began injecting Ozempic once a week. These new treatments may offer significant weight loss in a short period of time, yet they come with potential risks that are important to understand. "Magic Pill" is a necessary guide to the revolution that has already begun – and which could be as transformative as the invention of the smartphone.
