1) Weight Loss Drugs and Scurvy Ozempic (and its variants) have been a great success in reducing weight, and also in treating Type 2 Diabetes, and as a result, in improving markers of health (such as bringing down blood pressure, cholesterol, etc). But an unexplored side effect is potential nutritional deficiencies, from not eating enough of the right foods. In April 2025, Robbie Williams (the singer) said that he had been diagnosed with scurvy, after taking a weight-loss drug and dropping 13 kg in weight. But there is a way out. 2) Language – Kiki & Buba In the 1920s, it was discovered that most speakers of the English language associated the nonsense word, “kiki” with a spiky shape, but the nonsense word “buba” is associated with a round shape. Maybe the letters used to write the words might influence the “mental curvature” of the words. And it seems to work with monkey!!
