Description



Book Synopsis



Por el autor de El valor de la atención, Johann Hari.

Cuando Johann Hari vio su foto como cliente del mes en el Kentucky Fried Chicken que había a la vuelta de la esquina, constató que tenía un problema grave con su alimentación, su peso y su salud. Fue en ese momento cuando acudió al médico y empezó a inyectarse Ozempic, el nuevo fármaco contra la obesidad que ha revolucionado el mundo de la salud y de la industria farmacéutica. Algunas proyecciones sugieren que, en pocos años, una cuarta parte de la población de Occidente recurrirá al mismo tratamiento. Para sus defensores, medicamentos como Ozempic prometen una verdadera cura, contrarrestando riesgos como la diabetes, el cáncer y la muerte prematura. Pero ¿son realmente tan buenos como parecen?

Si El valor de la atención nos sumerge en las causas y las consecuencias de vivir pegados al teléfono celular, este nuevo libro aborda otra de las mayores obsesiones de la vida moderna: perder peso. Para ello, el autor se embarca en un viaje desde Islandia hasta Tokio y Minneapolis para entrevistar a científicos, médicos y pacientes que sacan a la luz los riesgos que estos nuevos fármacos tienen para nuestra salud física y mental. Al mismo tiempo, expone las implicaciones que su consumo tendrá en la economía, la nutrición y el sistema sanitario. Los Ozempics están a punto de transformar nuestro mundo, para bien y para mal. Es hora de entenderlos desde una perspectiva científica, emocional y cultural.

«En el umbral de una revolución médica, este libro es una guía esencial por el complejo paisaje científico, emocional y cultural de este fascinante territorio inexplorado que son los medicamentos para adelgazar». --Charles Duhigg, autor de El poder de los hábitos

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

By the author of Stolen Focus, Johann Hari.

When Johann Hari saw his photo as "Customer of the Month" at the Kentucky Fried Chicken around the corner, he realized he had a serious problem with his diet, weight, and health. That was the moment he went to the doctor and started injecting Ozempic, the new anti-obesity drug that has revolutionized the health and pharmaceutical industries. Some projections suggest that, in a few years, a quarter of the Western population will turn to the same treatment. For its advocates, medications like Ozempic promise a true cure, counteracting risks such as diabetes, cancer, and premature death. But are they really as good as they seem?

If Stolen Focus immersed us in the causes and consequences of living glued to our phones, this new book tackles another major obsession of modern life: losing weight. To explore this, the author embarks on a journey from Iceland to Tokyo and Minneapolis, interviewing scientists, doctors, and patients who reveal the risks these new drugs pose to our physical and mental health. At the same time, he examines the implications their use will have on the economy, nutrition, and healthcare systems. Ozempic and similar drugs are about to transform our world--for better and for worse. It's time to understand them from a scientific, emotional, and cultural perspective.

"On the brink of a medical revolution, this book is an essential guide through the complex scientific, emotional, and cultural landscape of the fascinating, unexplored territory of weight-loss medications." --Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit
