WooNatic 

A WooNatic is soneone who rejects science based preventative health, medications, treatment plans, and vaccinations.

It is a cross between the term "woo" used to describe essential oil healing, bleach enema lovers, chiropractors for every ailment, healing crystals, and subscribers of antivax conspiracy theories. And the word lunatic.

A WooNatic will typically over state benefits, if any exist at all, while minimizing or ignoring all risks.

I was just invited to another healing crystals and essential oil party by the WooNatic next door.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
