Future of Medication and Body Modification
In the future, medication and pharmaceutical advancements have the potential to revolutionize body composition. There are already drugs that reduce appetite, increase resting metabolic rate, and even downregulate myostatin, a protein that limits muscle growth. These developments could allow people to easily achieve their desired body composition without extensive exercise or training. While there are concerns about the cultural and social impact of relying on medication for body modification, these advancements could also lead to significant health benefits and reduce strain on the healthcare system. However, it is important to recognize that physical activity, psychological benefits, and the beauty of movement may be compromised in a future heavily reliant on medication for body changes.
