glucagon is the most under-discussed thing in c/scamalerts
Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.
The advice on hepatic fat in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.
I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.

the MASH indication changes the risk calculus
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
MASH claims need the trial and the biopsy endpoint
the GLP-1/glucagon dual is hepatic fat, different from GIP/GLP-1
do not generalise from tirzepatide
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
Yeah, glucagon co-agonism is genuinely different.
Stalled for 16 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 73.
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
glucagon co-agonism has a different safety story
Mechanistically the bit that matters is glucagon. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
phase 8 data is interesting, phase 25 will be different
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
the heart rate signal is real in the data
