Drugmakers say weight-loss drugs may slow biological aging

Original: Weight-loss drugs show signs of slowing biological aging, say drugmakers

Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, makers of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, report early signs that the medications may slow biological aging, based on aging-clock measures cited by MIT Technology Review. The claim is drawing attention because the drugs are already widely used for obesity and diabetes, and any anti-aging effect would greatly expand their potential use.

Why now: GLP-1 drugs are already hugely popular, so evidence they might slow aging has major health and market implications
