Here’s how it really works—and how a new diet that tricks your body into thinking it’s fasting may have similar benefits.HOW FASTING WORKSWHEN SHOULD YOU EAT? It’s just as important as what you eat. +PHOTOGRAPH BY TRISTAN SPINSKI Low-calories sweeteners might not be as good for us as we thought Some artificial sweeteners disrupt the microbes in our gut—in ways that might actually increase the risk of weight gain, diabetes, and heart disease.LINK TO OBESITY PHOTOGRAPH BY IMYSKIN, GETTY IMAGES What to know about Ozempic, TikTok’s favorite weight loss drug Scientists caution that for weight loss, the diabetes medication’s long-term safety and efficacy aren’t settled.
