The correlation with lithium is pretty interesting too though.

I stopped using anything but stainless steel for my hot coffee several years ago; of course, it's going to leach out nickel and chromium from the stainless, but, you know, lesser of two evils and all that!

so if you feel less hungry all the time do you end up eating less and thus creating a daily caloric deficit?

yes, but insulin is also required to actually metabolize the glucose you make and do poo poo with it.

I don't see anyone itt that "doesn't believe in environmental contaminants" :confused:

the number one cause of Obesity is the Obesogenic Environment that is modern society, which is more than just pollution. it's like trying to blame global warming on only jet fuel

GLP-1 in and of itself also influences satiety so a GLP-1 receptor agonist also probably helps with hunger even before getting into insulin

i mean i straight up have said its multifaceted and preservatives are almost certainly another cause. people also eat more because they feel hungrier due to the environment. you can have a shittier calories in/calories out system due to higher insulin resistance caused by several environmental factors, including microplastics, on top of just eating more food with less fiber in it.

By what mechanism?

Why are countries like Japan immune to this phenomenon? They have plastic EVERYTHING and a very low obesity rate.

They eat a diet low in red meat (the meat has bioaccumulated more plastic and industrial toxins than you ever could).
