McGowan said.The end result is that the people who need these drugs most are taking uncharted, unresearched risks to get the medications.<h2 id="98c0484b-95b1-476a-be13-71c0822e754e">Patients are rationing doses to cut costs</h2>GLP-1 medications work by mimicking a hormone in the body that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar.The <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/weight-loss-glp-1-drugs-ozempic-wegovy-mounjaro-effects-future-2023-12">latest generation of these class of drugs</a>, medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, are once-weekly injections.The caveat is that in order to maintain the weight loss, you need to keep taking the drugs, but McGowan said that's just not possible at the current price point."This is why we so often see patients cycling on and off medications. Unfortunately, short-term use doesn't translate into long-term benefit," he said.In some cases, patients say they've tried to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-its-really-like-find-affordable-weight-loss-drugs-patient-2024-9">space out their doses</a>, and found their weight creeping back up.<h2 id="ffe4633a-0741-4479-9135-9ecd9bb4e9ff">Copycat drugs are dominating the online market</h2>A booming industry of websites and telehealth companies have jumped at the chance to sell patients their weight loss drugs for cheap, but there's a major catch, according to McGowan.These providers are offering <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/buy-compounded-semaglutide-online-risks-wegovy-ozempic-2023-1">compounded semaglutide</a> and tirzepatide, which contains the same active ingredient as branded products, but isn't FDA-approved."The compounded GLP-1 market has absolutely exploded," he said. "These drugs are everywhere and can be obtained with incredible ease and at a fraction of the cost of brand-name medication. However, this entirely unregulated industry presents significant risks related to quality, safety, and efficacy."<h2 id="538abdcc-03f9-459d-8b0f-54139cf4de87">It could take years for prices to drop</h2>Political pressure on pharmaceutical companies may move the needle when it comes to drug prices, according to Ted Kyle, a health professional with decades of experience in policy, marketing, and obesity care."It's going to be really messy but five years from now, prices will more reasonable, access much better, and more people will be getting care with a whole lot less blame and shame," Kyle told Business Insider.The competitive pressure will also help drive prices lower as companies aim to attract consumers back to their brand with <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/eli-lilly-cut-price-zepbound-tirzepatide-weight-loss-drug-copycats-2024-8">cheaper options for weight-loss drugs</a>.But McGowan said he isn't optimistic that the situation will improve for his patients in the near future."We can beg insurers to cover medication and plead with pharmaceutical companies to lower prices, but there simply isn't any incentive for them to do so right now," McGowan said.

My husband Jariel and I were young when we had him, and we wanted to get established and do things right the second time. So, we bought a house and grew up a bit. Finally, at 29, I felt ready to grow our family.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-are-pregnancy-side-effects-2023-5">My pregnancy</a> with our daughter, Jaicei, was easy. I needed a C-section when she was born on April 9, but a few days later we were leaving the hospital as a family. I was excited to introduce the baby to Jaylen and my stepdaughter Jamiracle, who is 14.The first few days at home were great. But after about a week, I noticed swelling in my hands and feet. I had <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/health/labored-breathing">shortness of breath</a>. My mama always raised me to go to the hospital whenever anything was wrong. So, I left the baby with her, and Jariel and I went back to the maternity ward where I had just delivered.<h2 id="921dfebf-b821-4b11-a810-c69c0ddd294d">When I was ready for discharge, I started feeling really sick</h2>There, doctors realized that I had <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/navy-seals-use-viagra-prevent-fluid-build-up-lungs-swimming-2022-8">fluid in my lungs</a>. They explained that can happen after childbirth and gave me medications to help. They kept me in the hospital overnight, but by the next day they said I was stable enough to go home.That's when I started feeling really sick. I told Jariel it felt like my chest was on fire. I had a pain on the left side of my chest that wrapped around my back. Doctors did tests, but when they all came back normal, the doctors tried to tell me it was just gas.Suddenly, I started foaming at the mouth and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/woman-with-fainting-disorder-cured-by-surgery-2022-1">lost consciousness</a>. My grandmother, who was with us and works in a hospital, realized my heart had stopped. She called a code and started administering CPR, which doctors continued for 45 minutes until they got a faint pulse.I don't remember any of it, but I know it was terrifying for Jariel, whose father and stepmother <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/heart-attack-most-serious-stemi-monday-cardiac-arrest-2023-6">died from heart attacks</a>.

At the new hospital, they said it was massive. Soon after that, I coded again, and doctors <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/teen-life-support-mom-legal-fight-doctors-brain-dead-2022-9">hooked me up to life support</a> that took over for my heart and lungs.By that point, doctors realized I had a heart attack caused by a spontaneous coronary artery dissection.

Because of that, doctors were able to give me CPR and later an<a target="_blank" href="https://www.abiomed.com/patients-and-caregivers/about-impella"> Impella heart pump</a> that saved my life.<h2 id="e7335df2-e712-486a-825b-b4d5f19fec65">I'm still recovering and I'm happy to be alive</h2>After about three days, I came off life support. I was still in the critical care unit, so I wasn't able to see my baby. I missed her so much, but I knew she was in good hands. My husband and both of our mothers are so supportive. I never had to wonder if the baby was OK without me. I could just concentrate on getting better so I could get back to her.Ten days later, I was finally discharged and able to see Jaicei. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/c-section-things-i-wished-i-knew-before-birth-2021-11">Having a C-section</a> followed by a heart attack is no joke.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine expressed heartfelt gratitude, emphasising that these students, through their dedication and actions, exemplified shared values of humanity and the sanctity of life. The incident occurred amidst heightened tensions, where the hospital, a crucial lifeline for children in the region, came under fire. Indian students, despite facing their own challenges amidst the conflict, provided crucial support, aiding medical staff in treating patients and assisting rescue operations. "Indian students who study medicine in Ukraine helped our doctors and rescuers after <keyword id="22362827" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Russias-attack" source="keywords">Russia's attack</keyword> on a children's hospital in Kyiv. Thank you to those who share the values of life," said Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a post on X. A children's hospital in Kyiv was hit by a Russian missile strike on Monday, resulting in significant damage and causing patients and their families to flee in fear. The attack, part of a larger aerial assault on Ukrainian cities during morning rush hour, has led to the tragic death of at least 43 people, as reported by authorities on Tuesday, CNN reported. In Austria, today PM Modi emphasised the importance of "dialogue and diplomacy" in resolving global conflicts, particularly the ongoing war in Ukraine. "I have said earlier also that this is not the time for war," said PM Modi addressing the India-Austria joint press statement, adding, "We won't be able to find a solution to problems in the warfield. Wherever it is, killing of innocent people is unacceptable. India and Austria emphasize dialogue and diplomacy, and for that, we are together ready to give any support required." Earlier on Tuesday Prime Minister Modi during his recent bilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, raised the issue of killings of children during conflicts and said it is "heart-wrenching" when <keyword id="22350882" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="innocent-children" source="keywords">innocent children</keyword> die. The Prime Minister said that everyone who believes in humanity is hurt when there is a loss of lives. The same day Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed disappointment over Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Russia, which he termed as a devastating blow to peace efforts. Zelenskyy took to social media platform X to post that on the same day 37 people, including three children, were killed and 170 others were injured due to Russia's missile strike at the largest children's hospital in Ukraine's capital city Kyiv.

Stephens said pilots shouldn't sign this even if they have a non-life-threatening illness.He recalled one instance several years ago where he refrained from flying for around a month because he had the flu.<h2 id="16fe7333-3f76-49e2-ad78-2bdc52963f8f">Life-threatening illnesses</h2>However, Stephens said the situation would be handled slightly differently if a crew member encountered a life-threatening emergency in midair."It is a dire situation if the captain has a heart attack, or is not breathing. But there are procedures in place," he said.Flight attendants in the US are trained in CPR and have defibrillators, Stephens said. He added that Delta flights also have a direct line to a medical doctor.There have been several reported cases of pilots dying mid-flight or shortly after landing.In August, a LATAM Airlines pilot on a three-person crew had a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/a-pilot-for-latam-airlines-died-medical-emergency-during-flight-2023-8">medical emergency</a> during a flight from Miami, Florida, to Santiago, Chile.He received medical attention after the plane made an emergency landing in Panama, but was later declared dead.In February, a flying instructor who accompanied a pilot in a Piper PA-2 because of windy conditions reportedly died from acute cardiac failure, per <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/pilot-thought-instructor-died-flight-was-just-joking-safety-report-say-rcna71729">NBC News</a>.

The suspected shooter and one other person died in the <keyword id="19909929" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="shooting" source="keywords">shooting</keyword> and two other spectators were critically injured, the Secret Service said in a statement. Trump said in a statement that he was "shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear." Similar sentiments are echoed by Jesse Singh, who founded the group American Sikhs for Trump. Jesse Singh said, "We are praying for his safety and recovery. We condemn this act and appeal to America to get united behind President Trump. Waheguru ji bless Trump and America." Singh also stressed that minorities are going to come out and support the former president this year. "Minorities have the same agenda as any other Americans," Singh told ANI. "We want America to be great again." Similarly, US President <keyword id="19919748" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="joe-biden" source="keywords">Joe Biden</keyword>'s supporters also condemned the attack on Trump. Ajay Bhutoria, Democratic Party deputy national finance chair, and strong Biden supporter, stressed that violence should never occur in the US and wished Trump a speedy recovery. He stated, "Violence should never occur in our democracy. My thoughts are with President Trump and everyone affected by the rally today.I wish them a speedy recovery." The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is leading the investigation into the shooting incident at former US President Donald Trump's rally in Pennsylvania's Butler on Saturday (local time). In a statement, the FBI said that the special agents of the FBI Pittsburgh Field Office responded immediately and will include crisis response team members and evidence response technicians. The FBI stated that they will continue to support this probe with all the resources of the investigation agency. It also asked people to inform them if they had any information regarding the incident. In a statement shared on X, the FBI stated, "The FBI has assumed the role of the lead federal law enforcement agency in the investigation of the incident involving former President Donald Trump that occurred earlier today in Butler, Pennsylvania." "Special agents of the FBI Pittsburgh Field Office responded immediately, to include crisis response team members and evidence response technicians. We will continue to support this investigation with the full resources of the FBI, alongside our partners at the US Secret Service and state and local law enforcement. Anyone with information that may assist with the investigation is asked to call our tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI," it added. Hours after the shooting, Donald Trump's campaign senior advisers, Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, said that the former US President is "doing well" and is looking forward to being in Milwaukee to attend the Republican convention. The convention is set to begin on Monday and Trump is scheduled to formally accept his party's nomination and deliver remarks on Thursday night, The Hill reported. In a statement, Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles said, "As was communicated earlier this evening, President Trump is doing well and grateful to law enforcement and first responders for their fast action." "President Trump looks forward to joining you all in Milwaukee as we proceed with our convention to nominate him to serve as the 47th President of the United States. As our party's nominee, President Trump will continue to share his vision to Make America Great Again," they added.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Donald Trump wanted Joe Biden to stay in the race. Now he's not happy about the switch-up.</li><li>Trump accused Democrats of wasting his campaign's time and money.</li></ul>Former President Donald Trump is not happy about President Joe Biden dropping out of the race, and he's been blasting Democrats for making his campaign "start all over."The former president has posted several angry rants on his social platform, Truth Social, accusing Democrats of wasting Republicans' time and money. He even alleged that their last-minute switch-up all but replacing Biden with Vice President Kamala Harris amounted to fraud."So, we are forced to spend time and money on fighting Crooked Joe Biden, he polls badly after having a terrible debate, and quits the race," the Republican presidential nominee <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/112826696160137948">wrote Sunday on Truth</a>. "Now we have to start all over again. Shouldn't the Republican Party be reimbursed for fraud in that everybody around Joe, including his doctors and the Fake News Media, knew he was not capable of running for, or being, President? Just askin'?"He then wrote on Monday night that Democrats misled "the Republican Party, causing it to waste a great deal of time and money."Trump's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<h2 id="82115211-fa13-40fd-81cc-14137aeeb557">A major reset in the 2024 race</h2>It's not just Trump who's peeved — some Republicans are so mad that they've <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gop-lawsuits-kamala-harris-campaign-finance-ballot-election-will-fail-2024-7">even threatened to sue Democrats to stop Harris</a> from taking Biden's campaign cash and place on the ballot. But legal experts told Business Insider that endeavor was doomed, at best.Trump and his team were hoping Biden would stay in the race, The Atlantic reported, because the president's flailing <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-reaction-biden-drops-out-of-election-truth-social-2024-7">campaign was working well for Trump</a>.<a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kamala-harris-nominee-democrats-endorse-republicans-attack-ads-2024-7">Trump was leading Biden</a> in both national and swing-state polls, he <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/joe-biden-lost-debate-moments-wasnt-talking-president-2024-6">appeared more cogent than Biden</a> in the aftermath of Biden's disastrous debate, and he was <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/young-voters-siding-with-trump-but-vote-less-often-2024-4">gaining ground among young voters</a>.But now that Trump is likely to face off against Harris — a much-younger and seemingly <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4786122-kamala-harris-biden-trump-favorability-democratic-party-polling/">more popular candidate than Biden</a> — his campaign's strategy of taking down Biden needs to shift.Trump's team had framed the race's narrative as a referendum on Biden, depicting Trump as the strong foil to "Sleepy Joe" and saying that Biden didn't have the wherewithal to handle crime or immigration policy.His team <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-kamala-harris-attack-ads-2024-7">was prepared with Harris attacks</a> as soon as Biden endorsed her, and Trump has already tried out a series of nicknames for the vice president, lately sticking with "Lyin' Kamala Harris" and bragging about his superior "pole numbers."But his campaign still faces an uphill battle readjusting its framework around a new candidate. Harris is already positioning herself as a former prosecutor taking on a felon.So Trump is right about one thing: His campaign does have to "start all over again."

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Diet plays a huge part in our health and longevity, L-Nutra CEO Dr. Joseph Antoun told Business Insider.</li><li>A healthy diet could protect us from some of the leading causes of death, including heart disease. </li></ul>What we eat probably impacts our health more than any other single factor, according to a medical doctor and CEO of a longevity company who shared his diet with Business Insider.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/doctor-longevity-company-ceo-shares-simple-weekly-workout-routine-2024-6">Alongside exercise</a>, food is a pillar of longevity because we consume it multiple times a day and it impacts everything from the gut microbiome to cholesterol and the constitution of cells, said Dr. Joseph Antoun, the CEO of L-Nutra, a longevity-focused nutrition company.Antoun said diet can play a large role in reducing the risk of developing diseases that are among the leading causes of death in the US. These include: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/health/conditions-symptoms/what-is-heart-disease">heart disease</a>, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and Alzheimer's, according to CDC data.He follows<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/longevity-diet-creator-valter-longo-eats-fasting-live-longer-2023-11"> the Longevity Diet</a>, created by his colleague and L-Nutra cofounder Valter Longo, a professor of gerontology and director of the USC Longevity Institute. It's mainly a plant-based diet but includes fish a few times a week, plus lots of complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats from nuts, Antoun said. It's similar to the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/plant-based-mediterranean-diet-add-ten-years-longevity-modeling-study-2022-2">Mediterranean Diet</a>, which one study suggested could add up to 10 years to a person's life.Antoun shared three dietary principles he follows in the hope of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/essential-healthy-habits-for-your-twenties-thirties-longevity-advice-2023-12">living a long, healthy life</a>.<h2 id="ccc45353-b485-4204-9101-1a8d2f684573">Eat nuts every day</h2>Nuts are a good source of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/protein-per-serving-animal-plant-based-foods-chart-comparison-2022-5">plant-based protein</a>, complex carbs, and healthy fats, Antoun said. He eats them pretty much every day.For breakfast, Antoun has nuts and a cup of coffee with a splash of oat or almond milk. He either has L-Nutra's Prolon Fasting bar, which is made of walnuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, and a little bit of honey, or just whole nuts.Occasionally he has his company's Longevity Spread, which is made of mainly almonds and cocoa powder, on wholewheat bread.Research suggests that eating nuts regularly could <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-young-people-can-lower-their-risk-for-heart-disease-2023-2">lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.</a> A large 2017 study, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, looked at data on more than 200,000 people across 32 years and found that those who ate nuts five or more times a week had a 14% lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 20% lower risk of coronary heart disease than people who never or almost never did. Nuts have been found to lower the risk of high blood pressure, reduce "bad" cholesterol, and decrease the risk of blood clots that can lead to heart attack or stroke, according to The Mayo Clinic.<h2 id="3571c193-1e4b-4988-bea3-c668482b113b">Eat plant-based protein</h2>Antoun mainly eats plant-based protein including nuts, beans, and chickpeas.There's compelling evidence to suggest that a diet high in plants could boost longevity. In a 2023 study published in JAMA Network Open, 22 pairs of twins were randomly assigned either <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/vegan-diet-better-for-health-than-omnivore-identical-twins-study-2023-12">a healthy vegan diet or a healthy omnivorous diet</a> for eight weeks.At the end of the study, the vegan twins had significantly lower "bad" cholesterol levels, as well as insulin and body weight — all of which are associated with improved cardiovascular health — than their omnivorous counterparts.Another large study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that shifting 3% of calorie intake from animal protein to plant protein appeared to lower the risk of death from any cause by 10%.<h2 id="64ce9d27-3ddd-4a36-8b5e-874da2b7341e">Have dinner early and breakfast late</h2>Another part of Longo's Longevity Diet, and the central tenant of L-Nutra's business model, is intermittent fasting. According to Longo's website, dieters must confine all eating to a twelve-hour period and shouldn't eat three to four hours before bedtime.Antoun does this to make sure he's fasting for 12 hours every day. "I don't eat overnight. It's very important for me to have my dinner around seven and then stay all the way the next day until seven, eight o'clock up until I have my breakfast," he said.Fasting diets are popular with CEOs, celebrities, and biohacking bros, who hope it will help with weight loss, longevity, and improved focus. But as BI previously reported, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/intermittent-fasting-benefits-and-risks-for-longevity-weight-loss-cancer-2024-4">actual evidence is lagging behind the huge interest in fasting</a>.Studies on animals suggest that calorie restriction through fasting could boost longevity. This is understood to be because of a process known as autophagy, in which cells start to shed old, unusable parts when deprived of nutrients. But there's limited evidence that the result is the same in humans.

I think he should take a cognitive test like I did."But a moment later, the former president referred to Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas, who was the White House physician from 2013 to 2018, as "Doc. Ronny Johnson.""Doc. Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas? He was the White House doctor, and he said I was the healthiest president, he feels, in history, so I liked him very much indeed immediately," Trump said.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-score-on-montreal-cognitive-assessment-dementia-and-alzheimers-2018-1">Trump took a cognitive test in 2018</a>, after which Jackson said he spotted "no issues whatsoever" with Trump's mental ability, adding that he was "very sharp" and "articulate" and that he got a perfect score on a gold-standard dementia test.On Friday, the Trump campaign branded Biden a "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.donaldjtrump.com/news/647f0d74-6170-4bf9-855c-c3a0fcdd05d3">brain-dead zombie</a>" after a video appeared to show him wandering off from leaders at the G7 summit this week."From Italy to the United Kingdom to New York, millions of people around the world woke up to headlines about crooked Joe Biden's cognitive decline on full display at the G7 Summit," Karoline Leavitt, Trump's spokesperson, said.<a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/america_mad/status/1801307831678779828?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1801307831678779828%7Ctwgr%5E1f512bc5506d523246a539c5d885cdb34fb01e31%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmuse.insider.com%2Fstory%2F666eb9cfb38735ca9df0c4fe">The video later turned out to be cropped</a>, and a wider angle of the same scene showed the president had turned to face a skydiver who had just landed.The video, shared widely across right-wing media platforms, came after the Biden campaign acknowledged Trump's 78th birthday this week with a scathing statement that included 78 things Trump did this year, including a host of felony convictions.<a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/BidenHQ/status/1801623570964959442">James Singer</a>, a Biden campaign spokesperson, said: "Happy birthday, Donald.
