Weight loss drug sales are estimated to hit $44 billion by 2030. Many of these treatments can thank previously obscure research on a carnivorous deep sea fish for their development. Rolfe Winkler is a reporter for the Wall Street Journal covering digital health. Ricky Mulvey caught up with Winkler to discuss: - The origins and science behind weight loss drugs. - The challenge of selling lizard venom research to pharmaceutical companies. - What decades-old research on anglerfish reveals about modern side effects for Ozempic. - And why it’s “not too hard” to keep dozens of Gila Monsters in your basement. “Monster Diet Drugs Like Ozempic Started With Actual Monsters”: https://www.wsj.com/articles/ozempic-mounjaro-gila-monster-anglerfish-8c9c1ff2 Companies mentioned: NVO, LLY Host: Ricky Mulvey Guest: Rolfe Winkler Engineers: Tim Sparks, Heather Horton
