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 report early evidence that GLP-1 weight-loss drugs like Ozempic may slow biological aging, based on aging-clock measurements showing users aging more slowly than expected. The claim is drawing attention because it suggests the blockbuster medications could have effects beyond weight loss and diabetes, though scientists caution the findings are preliminary and more research is needed to confirm any anti-aging benefit.

Why now: New claims from major drugmakers suggest widely used GLP-1 drugs may do more than treat obesity, sparking debate about anti-aging potential
