I found out the hard way that Bali Belly is no joke. What started as a bucket-list dream vacation turned into a battle with my gut health that I'm still fighting as we record this. And the kicker - I thought I was prepared to dodge it: I had my enzymes, my probiotics, I was careful with food and water. But what I didn't know about environmental exposure through skin contact, contaminated water sources, and the reality of underdeveloped infrastructure cost me my normally great health. In this conversation, I'm joined by functional nurse practitioner Laura Frontiero (aka "The Gut Genie") to break down exactly what happened to my body in Bali, why some people get sick while others don't, and the critical travel supplements I wish I'd packed. We're talking about the antibiotics versus antimicrobials debate, what to do when you have an allergic reaction mid-treatment, why Western medicine dismisses parasites that are epidemic in other countries, and the comprehensive protocol I'm using right now to recover. If you've ever traveled internationally, plan to, or have mysterious symptoms after a trip abroad, this episode could literally save you years of suffering. Laura shares her essential travel toolkit, explains when it's actually okay to stop an antibiotic, reveals why parasites are more common than anyone admits, and gives you the exact steps to protect your gut health when exploring the world. Tune in for a comprehensive guide to safeguarding your gut health while exploring new destinations.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Episode Links:    Ozone Air Purifier: Choose the black Triad Air Go https://mytriadaer.funnelpages.com/CA-LAU71172-Laura-Frontiero  Shop CellCore: https://shop.laurafrontiero.com/collections/all  Saccharomyces Boulardii: https://www.designsforhealth.com/u/laura/products/floramyces#FLM060   Learn More About Laura Frontiero:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/laura.frontiero  Website ➜ https://gutchecktest.com/    Free Gifts for being a listener of Midlife Conversations!

It's Thursday, October 9th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Pakistani pastor dies after 13-year jail sentence A pastor in Pakistan died on Sunday after languishing in prison for 13 years. Pastor Zafar Bhatti founded Jesus World Mission Church ministry. Back in 2012, he was falsely accused of insulting Islam. Authorities finally overturned his conviction this month, releasing him last Wednesday. The 62-year-old pastor died days after from cardiac arrest at his home.   The British Asian Christian Association helped defend the pastor in court. The organization stated, “Though his earthly journey has ended, Zafar's faith, endurance, and ultimate vindication remain a powerful testament to hope in Christ amidst persecution.” Nigerian Anglican Church appalled that woman chosen to be new church head The Anglican Church of Nigeria declared spiritual independence from the Church of England on Tuesday. The announcement came in response to the Church of England's appointment of Sarah Mullally as the Archbishop of Canterbury. She is the first woman to hold the position. She also supports abortion and faux homosexual marriage.  Archbishop Henry Ndukuba is the Primate of the Church of Nigeria. He stated, “[Mullally's] appointment marks a tragic departure from biblical orthodoxy. . . . We remain Anglicans — but not under Canterbury. Our loyalty is to Christ and the truth of His Word, not to institutions that have abandoned it.” Police arrest man intent on blowing up church with Supreme Court Justices In the United States, police arrested a man on Sunday who had hundreds of explosive devises outside of St. Matthews Cathedral in Washington, D.C. Police made the arrest before an annual service traditionally attended by U.S. Supreme Court justices.  According to court records, the man's notebook expressed animosity toward Supreme Court justices, the Catholic Church, Jews, and immigration enforcement officials.  FBI cuts ties with God-hating Southern Poverty Law Center The Federal Bureau of Investigation announced last week it has cut ties with the Southern Poverty Law Center. The far-left nonprofit is known for listing conservative and Christian organizations as “hate groups,”  primarily because they affirm God's design for sexuality and marriage. FBI Director Kash Patel posted on X, “The Southern Poverty Law Center long ago abandoned civil rights work and turned into a partisan smear machine. Their so-called ‘hate map' has been used to defame mainstream Americans and even inspired violence. That disgraceful record makes them unfit for any FBI partnership.” Florida, Louisiana, Missouri & Texas sue FDA over mail-order Abortion Kill Pill The state of Louisiana joined a lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration on Monday.  Florida, Missouri, and Texas are also on the case. They are challenging the FDA's 2023 policy that allows mail-order abortion drugs. Louisiana's filing states, “Every year, doctors and activists in states like California and New York mail a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved abortion drug called mifepristone to thousands of Louisiana residents for the express purpose of causing abortions in Louisiana that are blatantly unlawful.” Gold hit $4,000 per ounce first time ever On Tuesday, spot gold prices hit $4,000 per ounce for the first time in history.  That's up 50% from January. Silver is up 60% this year. The demand for gold is up as investors hedge against economic uncertainty.  Financial analyst Rhona O'Connell told Reuters, “Background factors are much the same as before, in terms of geopolitical uncertainty, with the added spice of the (U.S.) government shutdown.” Prison Fellowship and Bible League to send 620,000 Bibles to prisoners And finally, Prison Fellowship International and Bible League International are partnering to distribute over half a million Bibles. The 620,000 Bibles will go to prisoners in 20 countries over the next five years. Frank Lofaro with Prison Fellowship International said, “God's Word has the power to reach prisoners in their darkest moments with the light of Jesus Christ. Through this partnership, prisoners who come to know Jesus through our evidence-based, in-prison programs are equipped to grow in their faith through a Bible that they can understand and that speaks to their circumstances.” Luke 4:18 says, “The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, October 9th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Join Kash and I live to go deeper on this conversation http://midlifeconversations.com/breathe  Could your "bad genetics" for cholesterol actually be a survival advantage you're just using wrong (and actually making everything worse)?  In this conversation we're diving deep into the connections between hormone detoxification, cholesterol, anxiety, and why your body might feel like it's working against you - plus the surprising solution that's helping women address all of it simultaneously. Health detective guru Kashif Khan returns to help unravel the mysteries behind stubborn weight, high cholesterol despite clean eating, chronic inflammation, and that constant fight-or-flight feeling that won't turn off no matter what you try. If you've been told you have poor detox pathways and it's made hormone replacement therapy feel scary, this episode provides clarity you won't find anywhere else. We explore why your body produces hormones based on what your ancestors did (not what you actually do), how modern toxins create a perfect storm of hormone disruption, and why the conventional approach to cholesterol might be missing the entire point. You'll discover why nervous system regulation must come first before any other intervention can truly work, and learn about molecular hydrogen therapy - a breakthrough approach that addresses toxic burden, cellular energy, and inflammation all at once. Tune in to learn about the profound impacts of hydrogen on detoxification, cellular energy, and overall wellness, and get answers to pressing health questions you've been asking. Whether you're dealing with weight resistance, sleep issues, anxiety, or just want to optimize your midlife health, this conversation provides the missing pieces.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Kashif Khan:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/kashkhanofficial  Website ➜ http://midlifeconversations.com/breathe   Thank you to our show sponsors!

Episode #226 We've all been there — things are going great, the scale is moving, fasting feels easy… and then suddenly, everything stops. In this episode, Coaches Terri and Heather open up an honest conversation about plateaus: what causes them, why they're normal, and how to move through them without losing your motivation. From dialing up your fasting rhythm to rethinking “healthy” foods that might be slowing your progress, this chat dives into the real-life adjustments that make a difference. They also explore how stress, sleep, and lifestyle habits play a bigger role than we often realize — and how to find balance again when things stall. If you're feeling stuck or discouraged, this episode will remind you that plateaus aren't failure — they're part of the process. Listen in for encouragement, practical tips, and a few laughs along the way.

It's Tuesday, October 7, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Nigerian military opened fire on Christians Christian persecution at the hands of Muslim terrorists in Nigeria was tough enough. Now, Truth Nigeria reports that the Nigerian military has opened fire on Christians in the Benue State — this time killing three young men. Ten others sustained life-threatening gunshot wounds and are receiving medical treatment in Jato-Aka. The local chief said, “We no longer need the military in our land. … They have joined Fulani to kill us and take over our land. They have turned their guns against us. … The betrayal is unbearable. Enough is enough. President Tinubu and Governor Alia should hear this message and take immediate action.” Newsweek urges State Dept to declare Nigeria “Country of Particular Concern” Newsweek.com has joined the voices of comedian Bill Maher and others, pointing to the egregious level of Christian killings in Nigeria. The Nigerian government has “categorically” denied that terrorists are waging a systematic genocide against Christians in the country. Newsweek noted that the Trump State Department has thus far failed at making Nigeria a “Country of Particular Concern.” Europe's swirling politics France just lost its third prime minister in about a year. Sébastien Lecornu was the latest, and he just resigned yesterday after only 27 days in office. This marks the most instability for the French government in 70 years. France's nationalist, anti-immigration party increased from obtaining 4% of parliamentarian seats in 2008 to 37% in 2024. Germany lost its government earlier this year.  Germany's anti-immigration party is supported by 24% of the country, up from virtually nothing ten years ago.  And Portugal faces instability, still run by a minority government, having completed its third election in three years in May.  Portugal's nationalist party increased from half percent in 2019 to 23% in the 2025 elections. Also, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, and Italy have experienced wide swings in governance — shifting to a nationalist position over the last 5-10 years. Daniel 2:21 reminds us that it is God who “changes times and seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.” Cuba sends 5,000 troops to aid Ukraine despite grinding poverty Reuters reports that Cuba is supporting the Ukrainian War now with up to 5,000 troops. The communist country's economy is lagging badly — suffering a four-year decline in its Gross Domestic Product, with another decline forecasted for this year, reports InDepthNews.com. Inflation is running at 28%. The nation has suffered at least five energy blackouts this year so far.  And 89% of the populace suffers from “extreme poverty” according to a recent survey. Seven out of ten Cubans have stopped eating breakfast, lunch, or dinner due to lack of money or food shortages. Only 15% have been able to eat three meals a day without interruption. That compares with the next poorest countries in Central America. Just 16% of Guatemalans  and 27% of folks in Honduras have to deal with these levels of extreme poverty. Supremes consider Trump's tariffs, Hawaii's gun restrictions, &  trans sports As the US Supreme Court reconvenes, the docket holds a slew of cases. They include the legitimacy of the Trump Tariffs, the president's removal of high level administrative bureaucrats, Colorado's ban on counselors helping minors out of homosexual sin, Hawaii's gun restrictions, and bans issued by red states on boys pretending to be girls playing in girls' sports in public schools.  Trump's FDA approve a new Abortion Kill Pill The Trump Administration's Food and Drug Administration approved another abortion kill pill to accommodate the killing of children in their mother's wombs. Last week, the FDA approved Evita Solutions' generic abortion drug for the US market. This is hardly in line with the administration's pledge to “review all the evidence—including real-world outcomes—on the safety of the drug” issued just last month. Ostensibly, the big concern is the health of the mother. The FDA reports 36 deaths attributed to the abortion kill pill thus far, but 7.5 million murdered babies. 63% of the annual abortions committed in the country today are attributed to the abortion kill pill.  Isaiah 29:15-16 speaks to this. The prophet wrote, “Woe to you who hide deep from the Lord your counsel, whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?” You turn things upside down! Shall the potter be regarded as the clay, that the thing made should say of its maker,  “He did not make me”; or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding”? Mt. Everest hiker died, 200 others stranded in shock blizzard And finally, one hiker has died and 200 others are still stranded in a shock blizzard on Mount Everest over the weekend. The blizzard took about 1,000 hikers by surprise.  Thus far this year, five people have died on Everest. Last year's total was eight, and 18 others died on the treacherous slopes in 2023. About 800 people attempt to summit the tallest mountain in the world each year.

Hey Mama,  Motherhood can feel impossible at times. Our children do things that we don't understand. They can light a fire of fury inside us, that we later feel guilty for. We get stuck on what we expect motherhood to be, to look like, and to feel like. Unfortunately it's not all lullaby's and snuggles. And while the little years are full of what feels like chaos, there is a stark realization as they grow just how much we do not have control. So how do we make it? How do we survive the feelings of failure as a mom, guilt for getting it wrong, and the hopelessness of dealing with a strong willed child?  Join me today to learn about  the one mom hack to feel confident in motherhood, no matter your circumstances.  For His Glory, Christen   I would love to hear from you!  >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me:   Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment   Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com  Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider  Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094  >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms  >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Get 50% off comprehensive labs + clinician consults https://joiandblokes.com/NATALIEJILL   Are you being medically gaslighted while your insurance company profits from your pain? This conversation with Katy Whalen, founder of Joi + Blokes telemedicine, pulls back the curtain on why midlife women are systematically failed by traditional healthcare. Katy shares her raw journey from comprehensive fertility support to complete menopause abandonment, sparking her mission to revolutionize women's healthcare through telehealth.  In this episode, we discuss the complexities of navigating life during perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. We get brutally honest about medical gaslighting, why your doctor dismisses your symptoms as "normal," and how insurance companies actively prevent you from getting optimal care. Katy breaks down the truth about HRT that most doctors won't tell you, exposes the dangerous research peptide market flooding social media, and reveals why telehealth is the future of personalized hormone care. We tackle the uncomfortable truths about why only 1 in 5 doctors are trained in menopause, what comprehensive testing actually reveals about your health, and why paying out of pocket might cost less than fighting your insurance company for substandard care. If you've ever been told you're "fine" while feeling absolutely terrible, been denied testing because insurance won't cover it, or wondered why your body stopped responding to everything that used to work, this episode will validate your frustration and give you a clear action plan. She shares exactly what to look for in HRT treatment, how to spot legitimate peptide therapy versus dangerous research compounds, and why telehealth partnerships are changing the game for women who refuse to settle for "normal." Get ready to stop being gaslighted and start demanding the optimal health you deserve.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Katy Whalen and Joi + Blokes:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/joiwomenswellness  Website ➜ https://joiandblokes.com/NATALIEJILL  Thank you to our show sponsors!

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX French drugmaker Sanofi says it would offer a month's supply of any of its insulin products for $35 to all patients in the U.S. with a valid prescription, regardless of insurance status. The program, originally meant for uninsured diabetes patients, would now include those with commercial insurance or Medicare, the drugmaker said. Patients will be able to purchase any combination, type, and quantity of Sanofi insulins with a valid prescription for the fixed monthly price of $35, starting January 1. Lilly and Novo also have similar programs through which they offer insulin products for $35 a month for U.S. patients regardless of whether the patients have insurance. There is no law at work here – the only legislation that has changed the price of insulin came with the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022 with the Medicare cap. Helping lower the cost here, biosimilars hitting the market and the huge profitability for GLP-1 drugs for Novo and Lilly https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/sanofi-offer-all-insulin-products-35-per-month-us-2025-09-26/ XX A pill typically prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia might help slow the progression of type 1 diabetes, a new study says. Baricitinib (bare-uh-SIT-nib) safely preserved the body's own insulin production in people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.. and their diabetes started progressing once they stopped taking baricitinib, results show. They produced less insulin and had less stable blood sugar levels.   Baricitinib works by quelling signals in the body that spur on the immune system, and is already approved for treating autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis and alopecia, researchers said.   “Among the promising agents shown to preserve beta cell function in type 1 diabetes, baricitinib stands out because it can be taken orally, is well tolerated, including by young children, and is clearly efficacious,” Waibel said. “We are hopeful that larger phase III trials with baricitinib are going to commence soon, in people with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes as well as in earlier stages to delay insulin dependence,” she added. “If these trials are successful, the drug could be approved for type 1 diabetes treatment within five years.”   Findings presented at medical meetings should be considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.   https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2025-09-23/pill-effective-in-slowing-type-1-diabetes-progression XX An existing transplant drug has shown promise in slowing the progression of type 1 diabetes in newly diagnosed young people, potentially paving the way for the first therapy that modifies the disease after diagnosis. The Drug, called ATG, is currently used together with other medicines to prevent and treat the body from rejecting a kidney transplant. It can also be used to treat rejection following transplantation of other organs, such as hearts, gastrointestinal organs, or lungs. The researchers studied 117 people aged five to 25, who'd been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within the past three to nine weeks. The participants were from 14 centers across eight European countries and were randomized to be given different doses of ATG (0.1, 0.5, 1.5, or 2.5 mg/kg) or a placebo. ATG was given as a two-day intravenous (IV) infusion. The main goal was to see how well the pancreas could still make insulin after 12 months, measured by C-peptide levels during a special meal test. C-peptide is released into the blood along with insulin by the pancreas.   The findings are promising, showing that ATG, even at a relatively low dose, can slow the loss of insulin-producing cells in young people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The lower dose also caused fewer side effects, making it a more practical option. https://newatlas.com/disease/antithymocyte-globulin-newly-diagnosed-type-1-diabetes/     XX The FDA has delayed its feedback on Lexicon Pharmaceuticals' application to bring Zynquista (sotagliflozin) to people with type 1 diabetes. The agency had planned to respond this month but will now wait until the fourth quarter after reviewing new data from ongoing studies. Zynquista, an oral drug meant to be used with insulin, has already been approved for heart failure (marketed as Inpefa). But in type 1 diabetes, it faces safety concerns: last year an FDA advisory committee voted 11–3 that its benefits don't outweigh the increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The FDA later issued a complete response letter rejecting the drug. Lexicon is still pushing forward, hoping its additional submissions will strengthen Zynquista's case for type 1 diabetes approval. https://www.biospace.com/fda/after-fda-rejection-lexicons-type-1-diabetes-drug-hit-with-another-regulatory-delay     XX A common but often undiagnosed genetic condition may be causing delays in type 2 diabetes diagnoses and increasing the risk of serious complications for thousands of Black and South Asian men in the UK—and potentially millions worldwide. A new study found around one in seven Black and one in 63 South Asian men in the UK carry a genetic variant known as G6PD deficiency. Men with G6PD deficiency are, on average, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes four years later than those without the gene variant. But despite this, fewer than one in 50 have been diagnosed with the condition.   G6PD deficiency does not cause diabetes, but it makes the widely used HbA1c blood test—which diagnoses and monitors diabetes—appear artificially low. This can mislead doctors and patients, resulting in delayed diabetes diagnosis and treatment.   The study found men with G6PD deficiency are at a 37% higher risk of developing diabetes-related microvascular complications, such as eye, kidney, and nerve damage, compared to other men with diabetes.   "This study highlights important evidence that must be used to tackle these health inequalities and improve outcomes for Black communities. Preventative measures are now needed to ensure that Black people, especially men, are not underdiagnosed or diagnosed too late." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-09-hidden-genetic-delay-diabetes-diagnosis.html XX Novo Nordisk today announced the resubmission of its Biologics License Application (BLA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Awiqli® (insulin icodec) injection, a once-weekly basal insulin treatment for adults living with type 2 diabetes. If approved, Awiqli® would become the first once-weekly basal insulin available in the United States, providing an alternative to daily basal insulin injections for adults living with type 2 diabetes.   The resubmission is based on results from the ONWARDS type 2 diabetes phase 3a program for once-weekly Awiqli® which is comprised of five randomized, active-controlled, treat-to-target clinical trials in approximately 4,000 adults with type 2 diabetes. The clinical program evaluated Awiqli® vs. daily basal insulin and the primary endpoint in these trials was change in A1C from baseline.1-5 Awiqli® is approved in the EU, along with 12 additional countries. In addition, regulatory filings have been completed in several other countries, with further regulatory decisions expected in 2025. XX Interesting news from Sequel Med Tech – they've signed an agreement with Arecor to pair the twiist pump with AT278 an ultra-concentrated (500U/mL), ultra-rapid insulin in development. They also have a deal with Medtronic to develop insulin for new pumps. This insulin isn't yet approved, it's 5 times stronger than standard fast acting  it's hoped that a clinical study will begin next year. Arecor says its insulin could potentially be the only option capable of enabling and catalyzing the next generation of longer-wear and miniaturized automated insulin delivery systems.   https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/sequel-arecor-develop-rapid-insulin-twiist/ XX Tandem Diabetes Care announes its t:slim X2™ insulin pump with Control-IQ+ automated insulin delivery (AID) technology is now cleared for use with Eli Lilly and Company's Lyumjev® (insulin lispro-aabc injection) ultra-rapid acting insulin in the United States (U.S.).   – The t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ+ technology is now cleared for use with Lyumjev for people with type 1 diabetes ages 2 and above and all adults with type 2 diabetes. The companies are continuing to work toward securing Lyumjev compatibility for the Tandem Mobi pump. https://hitconsultant.net/2025/09/29/tandem-diabetes-cares-tslim-x2-pump-cleared-for-use-with-lillys-ultra-rapid-lyumjev-insulin/ XX You can now place your order for the MiniMed™ 780G system with the Instinct sensor, made by Abbott. And if you are already a MiniMed 780G user, you can place an upgrade order today. ​This is a 15 day wear sensor, with no transmitter or overtape required. It looks the same at other Abbot sensors such as the Libre but is proprietary to Medtronic. Shipments are scheduled to start in November.   ​ https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/medtronic-launches-minimed-780g-instinct-abbott/   XX The global type 1 diabetes (T1D) burden continues to increase rapidly driven by rising cases, ageing populations, improved diagnosis and falling death rates. ,   The study estimates that T1D will affect 9.5 million people globally in 2025 (up by 13% since 2021), and this number is predicted to rise to 14.7 million in 2040. However, due to lack of diagnosis and challenges in collecting sufficient data, the actual number of individuals living with T1D is likely much higher, researchers say.   In fact, they estimate that there are an additional 4.1 million 'missing people' who would have been alive in 2025 if they hadn't died prematurely from poor T1D care, including an estimated 669,000 who were not diagnosed. This is particularly true in India, where an estimated 159,000 people thought to have died from missed diagnoses. The study predicts that 513,000 new cases of T1D will be diagnosed worldwide in 2025, of which 43% (222,000) will be people younger than 20 years old. Finland is projected to have the highest incidence of T1D in children aged 0-14 years in 2025 at around 64 cases per 100,000. The substantial increases in T1D forecasts between 2025 and 2040 underscore the urgent need for action. As co-author Renza Scibilia from Breakthrough T1D explains, "Early diagnosis, access to insulin and diabetes supplies, and proper healthcare can bring enormous benefits, with the potential to save millions of lives in the coming decades by ensuring universal access to insulin and improving the rate of diagnosis in all countries."   The authors note some important limitations to their estimates, including that while the analysis uses the best available data, predictions are constrained by the lack of accurate data in most countries-highlighting the urgent need for increased surveillance and research. They also note that data on misdiagnosis and adult populations remain limited, and the analysis assumes constant age-specific incidence and mortality over time. Furthermore, incidence data from the COVID-19 period were excluded from part of the modelling to avoid bias. Future updates are expected to improve as new data become available and applied. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250919/New-study-warns-of-millions-of-undiagnosed-and-missing-people-with-type-1-diabetes.aspx XX A new study has found that semaglutide — the active ingredient found in some GLP-1 medications prescribed for diabetes and to aid weight loss — may help protect the eyes from diabetic retinopathy. Researchers estimate that as much as 40% of all people with diabetes also have diabetic retinopathy — a potentially blinding eye condition caused by blood vessel damage in the eye's retina. There is currently no cure for diabetic retinopathy. The condition is often managed through injections of anti-VEGF medications into the eye, surgery, and blood sugar monitoring and control. For this lab-based study, researchers used samples of human retinal endothelial cells that were treated with different concentrations of semaglutide. The cells were then placed in a solution with both a high glucose level and high level of oxidative stress — where there is an imbalance of antioxidants and free radicals — for 24 hours.   Past studies show that oxidative stress plays a role in the formation of diabetic retinopathy.   At the study's conclusion, researchers found that the retinal cells treated with semaglutide were twice as likely to survive than cells that were untreated. Additionally, the treated cells were found to have larger stores of energy.   Scientists also found that three markers of diabetic retinopathy were decreased in the semaglutide-treated retinal cells. First, the levels of apoptosis — a form of cell death — decreased from about 50% in untreated cells to about 10% in semaglutide-treated cells. The production of the free radical mitochondrial superoxide decreased from about 90% to about 10% in the treated retinal cells.   Researchers also found the amount of advanced glycation end-products — harmful compounds that can collect in people with diabetes and are known to cause oxidative stress — also decreased substantially.   Lastly, scientists reported that the genes involved in the production of antioxidants were more active in the semaglutide-treated cells when compared to untreated cells. Researchers believe this is a sign that semaglutide may help repair damage to the retinal cells.   “Our study did not find that these drugs harmed the retinal cells in any way — instead, it suggests that GLP1-receptor agonists protect against diabetic retinopathy, particularly in the early stages,” Ioanna Anastasiou, PhD, molecular biologist and postdoctoral researcher at the National and Kapodistrian University in Greece, and lead author of this study, said in a press release.   “Excitingly, these drugs may be able to repair damage that has already been done and so improve sight. Clinical trials are now needed to confirm these protective effects in patients and explore whether GLP-1 receptor agonists can slow, or even halt, the progression of this vision-robbing condition.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ozempic-semaglutide-may-help-protect-against-diabetes-related-blindness-retinopathy   XX Biolinq has received De Novo Classification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its lead product, Biolinq Shine, a patch on the forearm that provides real-time glucose feedback through a primary color-coded LED display, visible with or without a phone. This one is tricky – it's called a needle free CGM but it also says it uses micro needles. By the way, De Novo isn't exactly the same as what we think of for FDA approval for medical devices. It's not as rigorous but it's a streamlined route for novel, low to moderate risk devices with no existing equivalent. We'll see how this one turns out. https://www.hmenews.com/article/biolinq-s-multi-function-biosensor-receives-fda-de-novo-classification

Ozempic, a widely discussed prescription medication originally intended for treating type two diabetes, has dominated conversations about weight loss in both the medical and celebrity worlds this week. The medication, whose active ingredient is called semaglutide, has become a cultural phenomenon for its ability to induce significant weight loss, owing to its appetite-suppressing effects and how it slows down the digestive system. Though it received United States Food and Drug Administration approval for diabetes in 2017, its popularity soared when doctors and patients began observing remarkable weight loss results. Now, celebrity usage has become a major talking point, with Hollywood stars and public figures openly discussing their experiences. According to an article in AOL News, experts suggest that a large number of A-listers have turned to Ozempic, with some physicians confirming that Hollywood clients are now hosting informal gatherings where people are introduced to the drug by specialty nurse prescribers and encouraged to seek prescriptions. Events like the Golden Globes have even been called Ozempic's biggest night by some hosts, who have noted the visible transformation in many attendees' figures.The impact of this trend is reflected in the way sizes have shifted in public appearances, with Beverly Hills plastic surgeons estimating that stars who were once a size six or eight are now as small as zero or two. Yet, doctors are expressing concern about the potential side effects of this new wave of usage. Dr Michael Hakimi, a plastic surgeon, explained to Page Six that beyond just the shrinking figures, there is a growing demand for surgical intervention to remedy side effects like loose skin and other complications related to rapid weight loss. Another crucial point raised this week is the growing number of celebrities who, though thin already, are using small doses to maintain their size, since Ozempic suppresses appetite to the point that users sometimes no longer feel hungry.Oprah Winfrey remains central to the Ozempic and weight loss narrative, given her continual public discussion around her body image and health journey. According to IOL and The Independent, Oprah this week spoke candidly on her podcast about her use of GLP one medications like Ozempic, describing it as a relief after a lifetime of struggling with her weight. She explained that the shift to considering medically supported solutions came only after years of battling stigma and shame. Oprah stated that she had come to accept that her struggles were not just about willpower, especially after hosting a major panel last year on the science of obesity and weight management. She said she now uses her medication as a tool and credits it for helping her avoid the cycle of regaining lost weight. However, she emphasized that medication is not a magic bullet and that sustainable results require continued attention to exercise and healthy habits. Oprah told People magazine that she felt a sense of freedom in finally accessing a tool to support her health goals and expressed frustration with the shaming she has experienced, both externally and internally.The discussions Oprah has fueled intersect with more serious medical news as lawsuits continue to mount against the makers of Ozempic. According to the King Law firm's update this September, over 2,100 lawsuits are currently pending in federal court. Many of these cases involve severe alleged side effects such as gastroparesis, or paralysis of the stomach, intestinal blockages, and in rarer cases, blindness and hair loss. A study published in August found that hair loss appeared at significantly higher rates for women taking the drug, with some men also affected. The increase in litigation is being watched closely as patients and healthcare professionals weigh the potential risks against the promise of dramatic weight loss and easier diabetes management.Meanwhile, the cultural dialogue about body size and acceptance continues to evolve. Oprah has publicly called for greater compassion and understanding, noting the profound effect social stigma had on her throughout her career. She recalled the dismissive treatment she received in retail stores at higher weights and the willingness of strangers and colleagues to comment on her appearance.Thanks for listening, please subscribe, and remember—this episode was brought to you by Quiet Please podcast networks.

Welcome back, listeners, to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked. Today, we are uncovering the latest news and updates on Ozempic, from its medical applications to its influence on our daily lives and overall health.There is an exciting development in the world of weight loss medication: a pill form of Ozempic, known by its generic name semaglutide. According to The New England Journal of Medicine, those who took the daily semaglutide pill lost nearly fourteen percent of their body weight over sixty-four weeks, compared to just two percent for those who took a placebo. This makes oral semaglutide a potential game changer for those who prefer pills over injections, especially since the pill shows a safety profile similar to the injectable form. Dr. Sean Wharton, who led the recent clinical trial, explained that this oral option could greatly expand the number of people willing to try GLP-1 treatments for obesity.Following closely behind is orforglipron, a new GLP-1 pill developed by Eli Lilly. Fox News reports that in a recent clinical trial, participants taking the highest dose of orforglipron lost an average of more than twenty-seven pounds after a year and a half. Nearly sixty percent of those participants lost ten percent of their body weight, while just under forty percent lost at least fifteen percent. What is even more hopeful, according to the study published in The New England Journal of Medicine, is that those with pre-diabetes saw a sharp improvement in blood sugar levels, suggesting broad metabolic benefits. While the results are compelling, experts note that injectables like Ozempic still deliver slightly more dramatic results, yet many patients may prefer the convenience and ease of a pill.On a different front, research from The Cleveland Clinic has revealed that genetics may influence just how well Ozempic or similar drugs work for you. According to their study, a gene known as Neurobeachin appears to help determine how much weight a person might lose with GLP-1 medications. People with a responsive version of the gene were eighty-two percent more likely to have significant weight loss, while those with a non-responsive score were actually less likely to lose weight. Dr. Daniel Rotroff from the Cleveland Clinic suggests that in the near future, doctors could combine genetic testing with lifestyle and personal factors to tailor obesity treatment, making these therapies even more effective and personalized.Let us not forget the reason why Ozempic was developed in the first place. Originally designed and approved to help manage type two diabetes, Ozempic as well as its higher-dose sibling Wegovy, are now also used for chronic weight management. Both are part of a class called glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, or GLP-1s. These medications work by stimulating insulin production and helping the body manage appetite and digestion, leading to weight loss as a beneficial side effect. According to information from the Lawsuit Information Center, Ozempic is still mainly prescribed as a once-weekly injection, but with oral versions nearing approval, that could soon change.New treatments often come with questions about safety. According to the United States Food and Drug Administration, there has been increased concern about unapproved compounded versions of these GLP-1 drugs, which have been linked to hundreds of adverse event reports. This highlights the importance of using only medications that are properly prescribed and approved, as safety must always come first.Finally, there are ongoing investigations into rare but serious side effects, such as a risk of vision loss, and digestive issues like gastroparesis linked to GLP-1 drugs including Ozempic. For most people, side effects tend to be mild and include nausea and digestive discomfort, but it is crucial to talk to your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits as this new generation of weight loss options emerges.That wraps up our update on Ozempic and the evolving world of GLP-1 weight loss therapies.

EP. 232:  Grab my FREE 4 Part Video Series: GLP1s Uncovered: https://bit.ly/GLP1uncovered In this episode I'm clearing up the confusion and political noise around Tylenol and NSAIDs. These over the counter medications are handed out like candy, yet decades in practice treating pain have shown me how often they backfire: from gut damage and hormone disruption to stalled healing and liver stress. Add in the recent headlines about Tylenol's potential link to autism, and suddenly what was once considered safe has become a lightning rod of controversy. I'll break it down simply: what these meds really do in the body, why long-term reliance can set you up for bigger problems, and how to think critically instead of getting caught in the political crossfire.

Doctors are pushing back on President Donald Trump's new claim that using Tylenol during pregnancy could lead to autism in children, and the administration's scrutiny of vaccines.On Monday, Trump announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will notify doctors that the use of Tylenol during pregnancy can be associated with a “very increased risk of autism,” despite decades of evidence proving that it is safe.“They are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary,” such as to treat fever, “if you can't tough it out,” Trump said.WISH-TV Medical Expert Dr. Janel Gordon joined Daybreak Tuesday to discuss the topics and answer questions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

One dead and two are critically injured after a shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) field office occurred in Dallas this morning, according to local authorities.In other news, the long-awaited study on the causes of autism has now been released. The Food and Drug Administration has declared that acetaminophen, also known as Tylenol, can cause autism in children if their mothers take it often while pregnant. We'll discuss this topic and others in this episode of “Crossroads.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

President Donald Trump has made the search for finding a “cure” for autism a centerpiece of his public health agenda. This week he shared major developments in that effort.On Monday, the Trump administration announced that the Food and Drug Administration would be adding a warning label to Tylenol and similar drugs that contain acetaminophen. Trump has suggested a connection between the widely used medication and autism. The president also promoted the drug leucovorin as a potential treatment for autism.The announcement has led to confusion among many people about autism and the safety of Tylenol during pregnancy. Joining “Post Reports” today to sift through this confusion is Washington Post White House reporter Dan Diamond. He and host Elahe Izadi also discuss what led to this announcement, what the Trump administration could do next and who pregnant patients should be turning to for health care. Today's episode was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy, with help from Lucas Trevor. It was mixed by Sam Bair and edited by Elana Gordon.

Did you know that by the time you reach midlife, your nervous system has been storing trauma responses for decades - even if you can't identify a single "traumatic" event? What if the chronic back pain, autoimmune issues, and stubborn weight gain plaguing so many midlife women aren't just random health problems, but your nervous system's way of expressing stored survival responses from years past? In this insightful conversation, Dr. Aimie Apigian reveals how seemingly normal childhood experiences - from crying yourself to sleep as a baby in the 1970s to being a latchkey kid - can create lasting biological changes that show up as health issues decades later through stored trauma in your nervous system. We dive into the science behind trauma, its long-term biological effects, and the importance of addressing trauma at different levels – mind, body, and biology and how accumulative, often unrecognized trauma can impact our health, aging, emotional regulation, and relationships.  Discover why your nervous system might still be stuck in survival mode, keeping you vulnerable to injuries, illnesses, and that constant underlying anxiety. Dr. Aimie explains the science behind why some people seem immune to health issues while others collect diagnoses, and most importantly, what nervous system healing can actually do about stored trauma.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Dr. Aimie Apigian:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/draimie   Website ➜  https://biologyoftrauma.com/  Thank you to our show sponsors!

Autism New Zealand says it has serious concerns around what it calls "misleading claims" made by Donald Trump and his administration around the link between autism and paracetamol. The US President made the highly-contentious claims in an Oval Office address this morning, announcing the US Food and Drug Administration will be notifying physicians that the use of paracetamol during pregnancy "can be associated with a very increased risk of autism". US correspondent Todd Zwillich spoke to Lisa Owen.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Zepbound for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in adults with obesity. Local experts discuss other advances in treatment, including nerve stimulation devices placed under the skin.

Hey Mama,  The idea of resting in American culture is counter productive to the narrative that we must work harder to get what we want.  You may be saying, well that's because motherhood never stops- and while this is true in many aspects, the reality is that if we do not make time for rest, we will burn out, get sick, and remain stuck in fight or flight mode. Join me today as I walk you through three simple ways to create time for intentional rest so you can better manage your stress as a busy mom.   For His Glory, Christen   I would love to hear from you!  >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me:   Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment   Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com  Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider  Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094  >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms  >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

I was blown away by the myriad of health benefits of a tiny molecule composed of 2 hydrogens (H2) after the conversation with today's guest. I dove into the research myself and saw that the literature has described the anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties of molecular hydrogen. The most common methods of administration are inhalation and ingestion of the dissolved molecule in water. Research also shows that endogenous H2 is produced in the intestines, and can be stimulated by dietary intake of turmeric, for example (another win for herbs!). Struggling to find answers and overcome extreme depression due to his compromised immune system, tumors, autoimmune issues, gut health, arthritis, wheelchair-bound immobility, and a very serious heart condition, Greg Hman began his own journey to heal himself and discovered hydrogen along the way. Studying the complex compound for four years, he implemented it into his health regimen and reversed his health challenges. Greg discusses the endless health benefits of hydrogen including longevity, gut health and improving chronic health issues. Greg also talks about how it helps support the body through a variety of stressors including: EMF radiation, skincare, tumors, hormone imbalances and COVID-19.

What if the chronic pain that's been ruling your life isn't actually about physical damage—but about your brain trying to protect you from threats it perceives based on your entire life history? Ashleigh Di Lello should be dead. At 13, doctors told her she wouldn't survive her teenage years after a mysterious viral infection began shutting down her organs. Twenty years later, after building a successful Broadway career, a failed hip surgery left her unable to walk and in excruciating pain that no treatment could touch…not even powerful opioids. After trying over 200 treatments and being told by specialists it was "downhill from here," Ashleigh made a decision that would revolutionize how we understand chronic pain. In this episode, we dive deep into a topic that's been both personal and transformative for me: the connection between pain and the brain. For years, I believed that pain was only the result of real, physical injuries. But after my own journey through back surgery and chronic pain, I started to question: what if our brains play a bigger role in how we experience pain than we realize? Discover why Type A personalities are more prone to chronic pain, how your brain actually gets BETTER at creating pain the more you experience it, and why doing everything "right" for your body might not be enough if your nervous system is stuck in survival mode. Ashleigh reveals the critical difference between regulating your nervous system (managing symptoms) versus rewiring it (changing how your brain processes pain entirely), and shares the exact paradigm shift that allowed her to walk again after five years of disability. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, unexplained symptoms, or simply curious about the incredible power of the brain-body connection, this episode will fundamentally change how you think about healing.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Ashleigh Di Lello:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/ashleighdilello  Website ➜  https://www.ashleydilello.com  Thank you to our show sponsors!

Episode #223 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:   1. I am a healthy 46-year-old working to improve my sleep, so I want to take magnesium bisglycinate. My magnesium supplement actually contains 7 forms of magnesium, which is very convenient, but is it better to just take one form in one capsule for absorption or any other reason? [01:23] 2. Two-part question on TFM's Fat Fasting  One: Vinegar is not on the list, but you have mentioned that we can eat salads. Would it be okay to make a dressing with a healthy oil and vinegar during a Fat Fast?    Two: I've seen some mention to only eat 3-4 of the allowed foods on a fat fast. Is this an alternative manner to step up one's game during a fat fast? [03:58] 3. I just read about a study on stem cell research.  Could you elaborate further what this may mean for those with pancreas, liver, or kidney issues? [08:11] 4. Are there any research-based studies that fasting helps lower cholesterol? [09:55] 5. I'm on day four of a water fast and I am noticing a metallic taste in my mouth. Is this unusual? Why does it happen? [13:46] 6. I have various autoimmune conditions and it was suggested I consider going on LDN (low dose naltrexone), and that this can also help with weight loss. I'm wondering what your thoughts are on LDN for weight loss and, if I decided to start it, how I would incorporate it into my fasting schedule. [16:09] 7. What is the difference between The Dawn Phenomenon and Feet-to-Floor Syndrome? From what I can find they both cause a rise in morning blood sugar, one due to circadian rhythm and the other due to a stress response from getting the day started. Is there a different eating/fasting protocol that is best for one over the other, and how do you know which one you are experiencing? [18:14] 8. Is kidney disease the cause of interstitial cystitis and how do you treat it? [21:05] 9. I have high uric acid and also the APOE 4-4 gene. Would the 3T of lime juice recommended for high uric acid affect the neural autophagy I use as a prevention for the dementia risk? What is the best way to navigate fasting with these two needs? [21:59] 10. Are there any dangers to keeping blood sugars in a consistently low range (50-60's mg/dl) if no symptoms of hypoglycemia are felt? [24:55] 11. In some fasting groups on-line, they are big into breaking fasts with watermelon and fruit juices. How do you feel about breaking fasts with these things?

Blockbuster drugs are launched by the pharmaceuticals industry to great fanfare — with promises of treating intractable illness and often with a stratospheric price tag. Yet, despite the hype and cost, many of those drugs turn out to be less than useless. How is it that so many drugs that are vetted by the Food and Drug Administration escape real scrutiny? Jerry Avorn, one of the most cited scientists in medicine, discusses the deeply compromised state of drug production and government regulation, in thrall to a for-profit system.

Hey Mama,  Do you ever bring a prayer request to the feet of Jesus, and then turn around and stress about whether or not it will happen, how it will happen, or when it will happen? As mothers, it is our second nature to plan and coordinate our lives and the lives of our families, so it's no wonder we often struggle with relinquishing control. I have good news, Mama. Jesus, the one who paid the price for it all, can handle whatever it is you ask of Him. He doesn't ask you to figure it out, He asks you to be faithful and trust in Him. So, if you want to have true peace as a busy mom, then stop trying to answer your own prayers and do these 3 things instead. For His Glory, Christen   I would love to hear from you!  >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me:   Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment   Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com  Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider  Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094  >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms  >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Is it possible that autism, Alzheimer's, bipolar disorder, and other major health challenges might all be related to the gut?That's the question Dr. Sabine Hazan, a gastroenterologist and CEO of Progenabiome, has been probing for years.The Food and Drug Administration recently approved the use of fecal transplants for research into the treatment of autism, and Dr. Hazan says this may open the door to real breakthroughs.She hopes to compare the microbiomes of autistic children with their neurotypical siblings and see if fecal transplants can help treat autism. She's already seen one remarkable case where restoring gut bacteria brought real improvements for a child with autism.Can these findings be replicated on a larger scale?During the COVID-19 pandemic, she observed that people who experienced the worst bouts of COVID-19 seemed to have significantly lower counts of a key microbe: bifidobacteria.“Bifidobacteria is important in absorbing sugar. It's important in your metabolism. It's important in your energy drive,” Dr. Hazan says.There are trillions of microbes in the gut, and scientists are only just starting to discover how this delicate balance of microbes impacts people's health, immunity, and mental wellness, Dr. Hazan says. There are “microbes that can kill us, but also microbes that can save us,” Dr. Hazan says.“You will see, probably in 10 or 50 years from now, there will be a connection between cardiac disease and the microbiome. We will be possibly able to fix the heart by fixing the gut, because it all is connected,” Dr. Hazan says.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
