GLP-1 medication (tirzepatide)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help explain how GLP-1 drugs reduce cravings and improve weight loss, potentially leading to better treatments for obesity.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage observational study with only 50 participants. It measures responses to ads, not long-term weight loss, so results may not apply broadly.
