On our radar: Popular weight-loss drugs may prevent prediabetes from turning into diabetes.

Adults with prediabetes and obesity who took GLP-1-based medications had a 31% lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes and a 41% lower risk of death compared with those taking metformin. Metformin is an oral medication used primarily to treat type 2 diabetes, widely considered the first-line treatment, combined with lifestyle modifications. It is also sometimes prescribed to people with prediabetes to help prevent or delay progression. The findings, which come from a large observational study, are set to be presented at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions 2026 this weekend in Chicago. They have not yet undergone the full peer review process. Around half of the group received GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists) medications – including semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide and dulaglutide – and half received metformin.

Trending right now: Brain Injuries, Severe Weight Loss, Fatal Heat Exposure: PETA Files Complaint After Johns Hopkins Cited for Repeated Animal Welfare Violations.

Please see the following statement from PETA Vice President Dr. Alka Chandna regarding three just-posted citations from the U. Department of Agriculture (USDA) against Johns Hopkins University for critical, repeated violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act. Among the violations, two macaques had to be euthanized after sustaining traumatic brain injuries when experimenters attempted to clean and remove tissue around devices attached to their skulls. Five bats baked to death in triple-digit heat in an uncooled enclosure on the roof of a building during the July 4 weekend. Monkeys suffered traumatic brain injuries, animals wasted away without required veterinary intervention, and bats died after being left in searing rooftop heat.

Going from 86 kgs to 50 kg is no small change. A Kochi-based fashion model shared her transformation on Instagram, where she revealed how cutting out sugar helped her go from 86 kgs to 50 kgs.

Story making the rounds: Weight-loss drug could help address nighttime sleep disruptions for millions.

An experimental obesity drug significantly reduced breathing interruptions and other symptoms of obstructive sleep disorder in two clinical trials, per new research published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects more than 50 million Americans, and about 80% of cases are undiagnosed, per the National Sleep Foundation. The study examined whether retatrutide, an investigational weight-loss drug from Eli Lilly, could help treat OSA in adults who were overweight or obese. EXPERIMENTAL OBESITY DRUG OUTPERFORMS TRADITIONAL WEIGHT-LOSS TREATMENTS IN EARLY RESEARCH Retatrutide is being evaluated in phase 3 TRIUMPH trials as a potential treatment for obesity and related metabolic conditions. The drug has not been approved by the FDA.

On our radar: GLP-1 drug coverage is being dropped by employer plans: What to know about 2027 weight-loss options.

With open enrollment season in swing, many employees may notice something conspicuously missing from their benefits menu — coverage of GLP-1 drugs for weight loss. More companies are dropping coverage completely or offering employees less generous payouts. In some cases, they're shifting to a different model altogether — offering employees a consolation prize of sorts — access to a weight management program through a third party. Coverage of these drugs for weight loss is pricey for employers — typically costing in the mid-$500s to mid-$600s per user monthly. Some companies say whatever the price, covering the drugs is worth it based on employee health. "We spend about $250 million or more on GLPs, and that's up from zero" four or five years ago, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan told CNBC's Andrew Ross Sorkin in August.

This caught our eye: Earlier sleep tied to weight loss in people with prediabetes.

Going to bed earlier is associated with weight loss in people with prediabetes, per a randomized controlled trial. The study in the journal Nursing Research found that adding sleep coaching to a diabetes prevention lifestyle program helped participants sleep better and feel less sleepy during the day, but did not change blood sugar levels. The results also point to sleep timing as a promising new target for weight loss. "When we fall asleep—not just how much we sleep—seems to be an important and overlooked factor for weight loss and metabolic health," says Susan Kohl Malone, assistant professor at New York University’s Rory Meyers College of Nursing and lead author of the study.
