AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

GLP-1 and movement: New ENDO 2026 research in Chicago finds people taking Ozempic and similar weight-loss drugs became less physically active, raising concerns about lean muscle loss even as weight drops. Sugar-free diets under scrutiny: Also at ENDO 2026, animal work suggests fully cutting sucrose can disrupt gut health and worsen metabolic markers, pointing to “balance over elimination.” Infant chemical exposure: A LIFE-MILCH study presented at ENDO 2026 detected endocrine-disrupting chemicals in breast milk and in infant urine up to six months, highlighting early-life vulnerability. Diabetes risk tech: ENDO 2026 also featured a plasma “messenger” study using extracellular vesicles to predict type 1 diabetes risk before symptoms. Autonomy push in Illinois: Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe says the company is targeting an increasingly driverless, Tesla-like experience, with unsupervised driving aimed for next year, building on its Normal, Illinois ramp. Illinois policy: Illinois distributed $25M to local pharmacies, and the state launched a free statewide digital library service to expand access to research and education. Legal fight over pesticides: Pesticide makers are lobbying for “liability shield” laws as the Supreme Court weighs whether federal law blocks state failure-to-warn lawsuits tied to glyphosate.
