Some of the first studies are underway to study the safety and effectiveness of GLP-1s, but that hasn’t stopped thousands of using them off-label or to treat obesity.

Learning through video games isn’t new – there are games aimed at almost every profession, even healthcare. Sam Glassenberg is the founder of Level Ex which makes those types of learning games – and when his daughter was diagnosed with type 1.. he was appalled at the on-boarding process which he called the worst game ever, full of frustration and punishment for the patient and caregiver.
