Meals and snacks with "GLP-1 Friendly" labels on the packaging are becoming more common as a growing number of Americans try obesity drugs like Wegovy and Zepbound to lose weight. Nestle and Conagra have put the labels on some of their frozen meals. Food chains like Smoothie King and Chipotle are introducing menu items targeting GLP-1 users. Dietitians say the nutritional needs of people taking the medications aren't that different from the general population's. They need to get enough protein to maintain muscle mass as they lose weight. Fiber is important to prevent constipation. Dietitians recommend reading food labels carefully. Some products marketed to GLP-1 users contain high amounts of saturated fat and sodium.

Summer means playgrounds, pools, bikes and being outside for kids. Pediatricians say it can also mean more potential for injuries like dehydration, sunburns and scrapes. They suggest keeping your child hydrated and avoiding prolonged sun exposure to keep heat illness at bay. Don't leave kids unmonitored around pools or other bodies of water. Most scrapes from playing outside can be taken care of at home. But if the injury shows signs of infection or there's swelling, take your child to the doctor.
