1:02Now PlayingObesity rates have declined after hitting an all-time high of nearly 40%. A Gallup poll finds the drops correlate with sharp increases in use of obesity treatments known as GLP-1 medications.
Over the past three years, Gallup’s National Health and Well-Being Index finds obesity rates decreased to 37%, down from 39.9% in 2022. Meanwhile, over the past year and a half, the use of GLP-1 drugs has more than doubled, to 12.4%.
