Episode Summary In this episode of the Empowered Nutrition Podcast, we are joined by Lily Nichols, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, and researcher known for her evidence-based approach to prenatal nutrition. Lily is the founder of the Institute for Prenatal NutritionⓇ and co-founder of the Women's Health Nutrition Academy. She has authored several bestselling books on real food nutrition that have influenced prenatal health worldwide. In this discussion, Lily shares insights into the relationship between insulin resistance and gestational diabetes, emphasizing the importance of managing blood sugar before, during, and after pregnancy. She also provides empowering strategies to reduce long-term health risks and ensure optimal outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Episode Highlights Insulin Resistance Preconception: Lily explains that insulin resistance may already exist before pregnancy, contributing to the development of gestational diabetes. Continuous Glucose Monitoring Study: A study discussed by Lily reveals that women who developed gestational diabetes showed higher blood sugar levels from the beginning of pregnancy, even before typical testing at 24–28 weeks. The Importance of Preconception Blood Sugar Management: Lily emphasizes that managing blood sugar before pregnancy, through proper diet, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments, can significantly reduce the risk of gestational diabetes. Gestational Diabetes and Long-Term Health: Women who develop GD are at a higher risk of type 2 diabetes later in life. Lily describes GD as a "warning light" and stresses the importance of lifestyle changes post-pregnancy to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. The Role of Key Nutrients: Lily mentions the importance of nutrients like magnesium, vitamin D, and inositol in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. Empowering Women: Rather than stigmatizing gestational diabetes, Lily highlights how knowledge of one's blood sugar control can be empowering, leading to proactive health decisions and better long-term outcomes. Gestational Diabetes Resources: Lily shares information about her professional training programs and the network she has built to ensure women have access to high-quality clinical care.

CONTRAINDICATIONS Diathermy - Energy from diathermy can be transferred through the implanted system and cause tissue damage resulting in severe injury or death. WARNINGS Sources of electromagnetic interference (e.g., defibrillation, electrocautery, MRI, RF ablation, and therapeutic ultrasound) can interact with the system, resulting in unexpected changes in stimulation, serious patient injury or death. An implanted cardiac device (e.g., pacemaker, defibrillator) may damage a neurostimulator, and electrical pulses from the neurostimulator may cause inappropriate response of the cardiac device. Patients with diabetes may have more frequent and severe complications with surgery. A preoperative assessment is advised for some patients with diabetes to confirm they are appropriate candidates for surgery. PRECAUTIONS Safety and effectiveness has not been established for pediatric use, pregnancy, unborn fetus, or delivery. Avoid activities that put stress on the implanted neurostimulation system components. Recharging a rechargeable neurostimulator may result in skin irritation or redness near the implant site. ADVERSE EVENTS May include: undesirable change in stimulation (uncomfortable, jolting or shocking); hematoma, epidural hemorrhage, paralysis, seroma, infection, erosion, device malfunction or migration, pain at implant site, loss of pain relief, and other surgical risks. Adverse events may result in fluctuations in blood glucose in patients with diabetes.

Rev 0422 TYRX™ Neuro Absorbable Antibacterial Envelope Brief Statement The TYRX™ Neuro Absorbable Antibacterial Envelope is intended to hold a vagus nerve stimulator, a spinal cord neuromodulator, a deep brain stimulator or a sacral nerve stimulator securely in order to create a stable environment when implanted in the body. The Neuro Antibacterial Envelope contains the antimicrobial agents Minocycline and Rifampin which, have been shown to reduce infection in an in vivo model of bacterial challenge following surgical implantation of a pulse generator. The Neuro Antibacterial Envelope is NOT indicated for use in patients who have an allergy or history of allergies to tetracyclines, Rifampin, or absorbable sutures. The Neuro Antibacterial Envelope is also NOT indicated for use in patients with contaminated or infected wounds, or Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). This device is intended to be used in conjunction with vagus nerve stimulators or deep brain stimulators implanted in the infraclavicular fossa, or in conjunction with spinal cord neuromodulators or sacral nerve stimulators implanted laterally to the body midline and slightly superior to the gluteal region. The use of this product in patients with compromised hepatic and renal function, or in the presence of hepatotoxic or renal toxic medications, should be considered carefully, because Minocycline and Rifampin can cause additional stress on the hepatic and renal systems. Patients who receive the Neuro Antibacterial Envelope and who are also taking methoxyflurane should be monitored carefully for signs of renal toxicity.

Let's Talk Diabetes and Prevention38 million Americans have diabetes (about 1 in 10).Approximately 98 million American adults -- that's 1 in 3, have prediabetes.More than 80% don't know they have it. The CDC reports that 18% of adolescents have prediabetes, and it's on the rise.Episode Notes00:15 - Who is Lara Al Dandachi?01:12 - Increase in Obesity and Diabetes03:40 - Type 1 vs Type 205:30 - Body Mass Index (BMI)07:10 - GLP-1 Antagonists - Ozempic, Wegovy11:38 - Ozempic and Pregnancy14:35 - IMPORTANT - Diabetes and Prediabetes16:45 - What are Beta Cells?22:35 - Food and Drink to Eliminate From Your Diet24:15 - Ultra-Processed Foods26:45 - Mediterranean Diet28:05 - Putting Diabetes into RemissionWhat Is Prediabetes?Prediabetes is a serious health condition. Blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not yet high enough to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes. With prediabetes, action is the best medicine.American Diabetes AssociationWhat is Diabetes?About 38 million Americans have diabetes (about 1 in 10), and approximately 90-95% have type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes most often develops in people over age 45, but more and more children, teens, and young adults are also developing it.Preventing Type 2 DiabetesIf you have prediabetes, losing a small amount of weight if you're overweight and getting regular physical activity can lower your risk for developing type 2 diabetes.A small amount of weight loss means around 5% to 7% of your body weight, just 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person.Regular physical activity means getting at least 150 minutes a week of brisk walking or a similar activity. That's just 30 minutes a day, five days a week.Tests for Diabetes and PrediabetesYour doctor will have you take one or more of the following blood tests to confirm the diagnosis:A1C TestThe A1C test measures your average blood sugar level over the past 3 months. An A1C below 5.7% is normal, between 5.7 and 6.4% indicates you have prediabetes, and greater than 6.5% indicates you have diabetes.Fasting Blood Sugar TestThis measures your blood sugar after an overnight fast (not eating). A fasting blood sugar level of 99 mg/dL or lower is normal, 100 to 125 mg/dL indicates you have prediabetes, and greater than 126 mg/dL indicates you have diabetes.GLP-1 Antagonists - Ozempic, Wegovy, Byetta, RybelsusThis class of drugs is commonly called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists.These drugs mimic the action of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide 1. When blood sugar levels start to rise after someone eats, these drugs stimulate the body to produce more insulin. The extra insulin helps lower blood sugar levels.Lower blood sugar levels are helpful for controlling type 2 diabetes. But it's not clear how the GLP-1 drugs lead to weight loss. Doctors do know that GLP-1s appear to help curb hunger. These drugs also slow the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine.As a result, you may feel full faster and longer, so you eat less.Along with helping to control blood sugar and boost weight loss, GLP-1s and SGLT-2 inhibitors seem to have other major benefits. Research has found that some drugs in these groups may lower the risk of heart disease, such as heart failure, stroke and kidney disease.
