The drug is called LOY-002, which inhibits the production of IGF-1 in animals. You can also have lower levels of IGF1 by not having a highly insulinogenic diet. Keep in mind, canines ate meat throughout their history. Now they're on "veterinarian approved" kibble that is full of grains which chronically raises their insulin and IGF1. It would be interesting to compare the drug to eating an ancestral, evolutionarily appropriate diet. Some people want a world where we pay a corporation for soylent then pay a pharma company to reduce the side effects from the Soylent. Lol. Kind of like how the American Pediatric Society says the first line intervention for overweight and obese children should be putting them on an $1800 per month Ozempic injection instead of diet and exercise.
