A weight-loss injection with results on par with bariatric surgery? With retatrutide, that is not an exaggeration.Although it's not FDA approved yet, retatrutide is one of the most talked-about medications coming down the line. In this episode, I'm unpacking Eli Lilly's new “triple agonist” medication, which targets three different pathways: GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon.We'll talk about how retatrutide may help curb appetite, support insulin sensitivity, increase energy expenditure, and accelerate fat metabolism.I'll also walk you through the standout clinical trial numbers behind the hype and take an honest look at tolerability, discontinuation rates, and side effects, including nausea, diarrhoea, and vomiting, so you can understand the full picture.ReferencesHarvard Study: Benefits of Micro Walks Cali Boyz BurritosSecure your spot for the September round of The 30/30 Program now (spaces limited).Subscribe to my Youtube channelAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Doctor Mau Informa ®️ #drmauinforma Durante medio siglo, la endocrinología consideró al glucagón como el "villano" del metabolismo: la hormona responsable de subir el azúcar en la sangre. Sin embargo, ¿qué pasaría si pudiéramos domesticar a este villano para activar la quema extrema de grasa de forma segura. En este episodio de Doctor Mau Informa, analizamos la fascinante evolución científica que nos llevó desde tumores pancreáticos hasta el desarrollo del Retatrutide, un revolucionario fármaco "triple agonista". Descubre cómo la ciencia logró combinar tres señales hormonales (Glucagón, GLP-1 y GIP) en una sola inyección semanal para alcanzar resultados de pérdida de peso metabólica que antes solo le pertenecían al bisturí de la cirugía bariátrica. En este episodio aprenderás: → La balanza de la pérdida de peso: Por qué los medicamentos anteriores solo te quitaban el hambre, y cómo la nueva generación también acelera tu gasto energético. → El secreto del Glucagón: Cómo esta hormona del ayuno saca la grasa del hígado y eleva el metabolismo. → La evolución del GLP-1: El papel protector de la insulina natural para contrarrestar el azúcar y permitir una pérdida de peso segura. → Cirugía vs. Fármacos: Por qué los resultados de los nuevos tratamientos crónicos están cambiando el paradigma médico para siempre. → La realidad clínica: Efectos secundarios, la importancia de la titulación médica y por qué esto no es una "dieta milagro".

Lieve luisteraars. Door een fabrieksfout van onze geluidsapparatuur is de derde en laatste aflevering van het Lauwersmeer helaas mislukt. Als troost doen we wel een recap van de aflevering zodat jullie er toch een beetje bij waren. Deze aflevering zijn we in de Groene Jonker, maar ook daar vertoonde onze nieuwe apparatuur weer kuren, waardoor Gisbert's geluidsspoor continu oversloeg zonder dat we dat doorhadden. Het is dus allemaal beetje behelpen zoals u merkt... Maar Arjan heeft er flink aan zitten klussen en daarmee is het ergste verholpen. Maar het is verre van perfect. Toch hebben we besloten om de aflevering live te zetten, want 'the show must go on'. Er wordt namelijk wel veel gelachen en er zijn drie nieuwe soorten voor Gip's Big Year gescored. Hopelijk vergeven jullie het ons en we beloven dat er achter de schermen wordt hard gewerkt aan de audiokwaliteit. Dank voor jullie begrip en hopelijk kunnen jullie toch genieten van deze aflevering.

It's the stage where the body can no longer produce enough insulin on its own to manage blood sugars you need to start insulin. This approval is for kids ages 8-17 within 8 weeks of a stage 3 T1D diagnosis. It comes after the PROTECT trial and it's the first approval of a disease-modifying therapy for stage 3 T1D. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/breakthrough-t1d-celebrates-approval-of-tzield-for-use-in-stage-3-type-1-diabetes-in-the-us-302799532.html XX Encouraging results from a small study of islet cell transplantation in people with type 1 where now all 12 participants in the trial are currently living without external insulin after receiving transplanted insulin-producing islet cells.   The study, led by researchers at the University of Chicago, tested an experimental immune therapy called tegoprubart Te-GO-Proo-Bart. The drug is designed to prevent the body from rejecting transplanted cells while avoiding some of the side effects associated with standard anti-rejection medications. You've probably heard about this as the Eledon study – many of the participants have been very active on social media. It was presented at ADA. transplants.https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/tegoprubart-islet-transplant-all-participants-off-external-insulin/ XX New data suggest that acmopatide (ack-MOW-puh-tyd) (CT-868), an experimental once-daily dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist, may help people with type 1 diabetes improve blood sugar control, lose weight, and reduce insulin use. Across all doses, participants lost up to 7% of their body weight and reduced insulin use by as much as 15%. The study lasted just 16 weeks, so researchers say longer-term data will be needed to determine whether the benefits can be maintained and whether lower insulin requirements can be achieved without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia. XX A new combination therapy that pairs an amylin analog with semaglutide improved both blood sugar levels and weight loss in several groups of people with type 2 diabetes. The once-weekly injectable, known as CagriSema (KAG-ruh-SEM-uh), was evaluated in three Phase 3 REIMAGINE studies. In people early in the course of type 2 diabetes, researchers reported A1C reductions of up to 1.8 percentage points and significant weight loss compared to placebo after 40 weeks of treatment. Investigators also noted improvements in several cardiometabolic risk factors, including blood pressure. https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/ada/121658 XX Stelo for kids is now FDA cleared.. the over the counter Glucose Biosensor System is now approved for children as young as 2 years old who do not use insulin. The FDA identified pediatric prediabetes as a growing public health concern motivating the expanded indication, noting OTC CGMs can help younger users and their caregivers build glycemic awareness, track patterns in response to me https://www.hcplive.com/view/fda-clears-first-otc-glucose-monitor-for-children XX Insulet presented new data from its STRIVE and EVOLUTION 3 studies showing improved glucose control with its next-generation Omnipod 6. That's , the company's upcoming hybrid closed-loop system for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The main difference between the Omnipod 6 and Insulet's current Omnipod 5 patch pumps is that the new system has a lower glucose target of 100 mg/dL and better Bluetooth connectivity Insulet also shared progress on a fully closed-loop system designed specifically for type 2 diabetes. It  does not require carb-counting or insulin bolusing ahead of meals. Physicians also don't need to program the starting settings.   XX Abbott shared new research highlighting challenges in identifying and managing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The studies coincide with the company's development of Libre Duo, a dual glucose-ketone sensor that continuously tracks both measurements. Abbott reported that DKA can be difficult to recognize when patients first arrive at the hospital, based on data from more than 100,000 people. The company has submitted the dual sensor to the FDA and recently received CE Mark approval in Europe. More news from ADA including info from Dexcom, Sequel, Sensonics and the world loses a tireless T1D advocate.. that's all to come right after this. --   Back to the news.. XX   Dexcom announced its acquisition of Nutrisense, a company that combines continuous glucose monitoring with nutrition coaching and behavioral support. At ADA, the company also presented results from the CONNECT study showing significant A1C reductions and improved glucose control in people with type 2 diabetes not using insulin. The findings add to growing evidence supporting CGM use beyond intensive insulin therapy. We did an episode with CEO Jake Leach at ADA about these announcements as well as updates on G8, their hospital product and much more. XX Sequel Med Tech reported positive clinical results evaluating its twiist automated insulin delivery system in people with type 2 diabetes. The study showed improvements in A1C and time in range over 13 weeks XX Senseonics presented new real-world data supporting the performance of its Eversense 365 implantable CGM. The analysis included more than 12,000 sensors and demonstrated sustained accuracy and effectiveness in both open-loop and automated insulin delivery settings. Researchers also evaluated Eversense use with Sequel Med Tech's twiist system. The findings support broader use of long-term implantable CGM technology.   -- MiniMed used ADA 2026 to spotlight two recently cleared diabetes management systems. The MiniMed Flex pump offers a smaller, smartphone-controlled insulin pump option, while MiniMed Go combines the InPen smart insulin pen with Abbott's Instinct sensor. The products received FDA clearance earlier this year. XX Tandem Diabetes Care highlighted data supporting the use of its Control-IQ automated insulin delivery technology during pregnancy. Results from the CIRCUIT trial showed users spent approximately three additional hours per day in the recommended pregnancy glucose range compared with standard therapy. The findings helped support recent regulatory approvals for pregnancy use in both Europe and the United States. Tandem also expanded indications for adults with type 2 diabetes. XX Beta Bionics presented real-world data from the first three years of iLet Bionic Pancreas use. The company reported a 25% improvement in time in range among users, along with positive feedback from clinicians about simplified diabetes management. The iLet system requires only a user's weight to begin therapy and eliminates carbohydrate counting. Beta Bionics also highlighted growing access to near-real-time outcomes through its public data dashboard. XX MannKind presented new findings supporting its Afrezza inhaled insulin at ADA 2026. A post-hoc analysis of the INHALE-1 study found that pediatric users reported greater treatment satisfaction compared with those using rapid-acting injected insulin. The results come shortly after FDA approval expanded Afrezza's indication to include children. We did a bonus episode with one of the lead investigators of the study that lead to that approval. XX Adaptyx presented early clinical data supporting a wearable sensor that continuously measures cortisol levels. The device successfully tracked cortisol changes during both controlled testing and overnight monitoring in first-in-human studies. Company leaders say cortisol plays a major role in conditions including diabetes, hypertension, and depression. The technology uses synthetic DNA-based molecular switches to generate real-time readings.   XX Biolinq shared new clinical findings for its Shine continuous glucose monitoring system. The needle-free device combines glucose monitoring with activity and sleep tracking .The system received FDA clearance in 2025. They're also looking at measuring lactate through the sensor. XX Long-time T1D advocate Kent Schnakenberg died last week. Schnakenberg was known in his community for using his love of bicycling to raise awareness of Type 1 diabetes. He also advocated for improving the lives of those living with the disease. Inspired by his niece, Michelle, who was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes when she was 13 years old, since 2014 he has traveled around the country cycling thousands of miles, speaking to hundreds and hundreds of kids and raising Money. According to Schnakenberg's family, he suffered a head trauma incident in his home on Wednesday. I spoke to Kent years ago – I believe the first year of the podcast. A sad loss but wonderful to see so many tributes and memories posted on social media in the last few days. https://diabetes-connections.com/john-costik-co-creator-of-nightscout-team-schnak/ https://www.wibw.com/2026/06/12/team-schnak-founder-kent-schnakenberg-passes-away/ XX And finally. Alexander Zverev (ts-ver-uhv) won the French Open, his first Grand Slam title. He lives with type 1, he paused a couple of time to check his blood sugar. He was diagnosed at age 4 and partners with Medtronic. "Becoming a professional tennis player was always my dream," Zverev shared in an article posted by Medtronic. "Early on, I was told that competing at the highest level with diabetes was impossible — but my family and I refused to accept that. That's why I'm partnering with Medtronic Diabetes: I want every person with diabetes to feel empowered to live the life they want." He also has a foundation committed to children with type 1 diabetes. Among other things, the life-saving insulin and other essential drugs are provided – also in developing countries." https://www.mensjournal.com/news/alexander-zverev-diabetes-wins-french-open-2026-medical-condition

ADA 2026 delivered a massive wave of obesity and diabetes data, and in this episode of On The Pen, Dave Knapp (@manonthemounjaro) sits down witH ​⁠ to break down the molecules, clinical trials, weight loss results, and safety signals that could define the next generation of obesity and diabetes medicine.We dive deep into Survodutide, Mazdutide, UBT251, Berobenatide (MET-097), CagriSema, Zenagamtide (formerly Amycretin), Petrelintide, and so much more!From GLP-1/glucagon dual agonists to triple agonists targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon, the obesity treatment landscape is becoming more competitive than ever. Which therapies showed the strongest weight loss? Which struggled with tolerability? And what do these results mean for patients living with obesity, type 2 diabetes, MASLD, sleep apnea, and other metabolic diseases?In this episode:✅ Survodutide obesity and liver fat reduction data✅ Mazdutide Phase 3 obesity and diabetes results✅ UBT251 triple agonist weight loss data✅ Berobenatide (MET-097) long-acting GLP-1 updates✅ CagriSema diabetes and obesity trial results✅ Zenagamtide (Amycretin) injectable and oral development✅ Petrelintide amylin agonist info✅ Future GLP-1, GIP, glucagon, and amylin therapiesThe future of obesity medicine is no longer just about who produces the most weight loss. It's about matching the right therapy to the right patient, improving tolerability, and addressing metabolic disease beyond the number on the scale.Read more obesity medicine news at obesity.news

Is retatrutide, the new triple agonist GLP-1, the next big thing in weight loss (or even rapid fat loss)?That depends on how the drug works, what the results are, the reality between the headlines and the evidence, and what happens to your weight when you stop.This episode breaks down retatrutide, the GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon triple agonist behind the largest weight loss numbers ever recorded in this class. It covers the Phase 2 obesity trial and the Phase 3 Triumph results, plus why cross-trial comparisons to semaglutide and tirzepatide deserve skepticism.We examine the body composition data (or lack thereof), and why a bigger number on the scale just amplifies the stakes for muscle mass, weight regain, and the off-ramp. Especially relevant for adults over 40 who are taking, considering, or planning to come off a GLP-1.Enroll in Eat More Lift Heavy, the 26-week coached program where adults over 40 build the nutrition and training skills to preserve muscle, lose fat, and manage their physique for life, including support for lifestyle changes needed while taking GLP-1s (and to come off them if desired).Timestamps:0:00 - Retatrutide and the biggest question for GLP-1 users 3:08 - How this new triple agonist works 4:46 - Phase 2 and Phase 3 weight loss numbers 5:38 - Cross-trial comparisons and their limits 6:23 - Fat, muscle, and what the trial did NOT measure 8:30 - Strength training over 40 and accelerated muscle loss 10:07 - Building the lifestyle (alongside using the drug) 14:10 - Resistance training and protein 16:00 - Rate of loss on a powerful drug like retatrutide 17:30 - The off-ramp when you stop 18:23 - Weight regain and body fat overshooting 22:03 - Retatrutide access and the gray market 24:11 - Bonus: 3-question test to keep your resultsEpisode Mentioned:Sometimes More Is More (The Sedentary Lifter Problem)

Can retatrutide finally be the breakthrough obesity treatment we've been waiting for? The answer is yes—and the data is stunning. In this episode I'm walking you through the biggest obesity medicine discovery from the ADA's 86th Scientific Session: retatrutide, a triple hormone receptor agonist showing weight loss results that rival bariatric surgery. You'll learn what makes retatrutide different from Wegovy and Zepbound, the stunning results from the Triumph 1 trial, what the side effects actually look like, and when this medication will finally be available. Weight loss medications are evolving faster than ever. But what you really need to know is what these results mean for your health. Listen now! Episode Highlights: Retatrutide is a triple hormone agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors Participants lost an average of 28.3% of their body weight in 80 weeks Two-thirds of participants achieved a normal BMI—moved from obese to healthy weight Nearly everyone with prediabetes reversed it and returned to normal blood sugar Over 70% reduction in knee osteoarthritis pain and 60% reduction in sleep apnea severity The highest discontinuation rate due to side effects was only 11%—mainly GI issues Retatrutide is not yet FDA approved but anticipated to launch early 2027 Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd   About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

In this powerful episode, the Holistic Kids crew sits down with Ashley Koff, RD, USA Today bestselling author of Your Best Shot and a leading weight health practitioner with over 25 years of experience. Ashley flips the script on how we talk about weight with kids — moving away from diets, BMI, and body shame, and toward understanding what the body is actually telling us. She explains how hormones like GLP-1, GIP, and PYY are made in the gut lining, why antibiotics and medications can disrupt them for years, and what that means for growing bodies. The conversation also tackles the rising use of GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic and Wegovy) in kids as young as 10 — what the research says, what parents and teens should know, and why these medications are a tool, not a solution on their own. In this episode, you'll learn: Why weight is a signal, not a sentence What GLP-1, GIP, and gut hormones actually do — explained simply How antibiotics and medications affect your hormones for years The truth about GLP-1 medications for kids and teens 3 daily habits to naturally support hormone balance Why BMI is a flawed measure — and what to look at instead The "race car" nutrition approach that keeps your body running better What "better, not perfect" really means for teenagers Guest: Ashley Koff, RD — Founder of The Better Nutrition Program, author of Your Best Shot, recognized by CNN as one of the Top 100 Health Makers.

Welcome back to Diabetes Dialogue: Technology, Therapeutics, & Real-World Perspectives!In this episode, shot live at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Scientific Sessions 2026 in New Orleans, Louisiana, cohosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, discuss the latest major trial results like CONNECT, TRIUMPH, and TRANSCEND.To begin the episode, Isaacs and Bellini, discuss major highlights from ADA Scientific Sessions, focusing first on the landmark CONNECT trial evaluating continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in people with type 2 diabetes who are not treated with insulin. They reflect on the evolution of CGM technology, from its early use primarily in type 1 diabetes to its expanding role in type 2 diabetes management, and explain why this trial represents an important step forward for patients who have historically had limited access to CGM.The hosts review the randomized controlled trial findings, emphasizing the significant improvements in glycemic outcomes, including a 1.6% reduction in A1c from baseline and an approximately 0.9% greater reduction compared with standard care. They also highlight the increase in time in range, with participants using CGM achieving roughly five additional hours per day in target glucose range. The magnitude of these findings is discussed as a practice-changing development, with the potential to influence future clinical guidelines and strengthen recommendations for CGM use among individuals with type 2 diabetes who are not using insulin.The discussion also explores the broader implications of the CONNECT trial for healthcare access and insurance coverage. The hosts note that randomized controlled trial evidence has historically played a key role in shaping standards of care and payer decisions, and they suggest that these results may help support wider adoption of CGM by demonstrating meaningful improvements in glucose control and patient outcomes.The conversation then shifts to emerging pharmacologic advances, with a focus on retatrutide, a novel triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon pathways. The hosts discuss new data showing substantial metabolic benefits in people with type 2 diabetes, including up to 17% weight reduction and nearly 2% A1c lowering. They highlight how these findings represent a major advancement in diabetes and obesity treatment, particularly as clinicians continue to see increasingly powerful effects from next-generation incretin-based therapies.Isaacs and Bellini explore how these therapies may reshape treatment strategies by allowing clinicians to tailor medication choices based on individual patient needs and goals. They discuss the importance of considering both glucose lowering and weight reduction effects, recognizing that some patients may benefit from significant weight loss while others may require a more balanced approach focused primarily on glycemic improvement.The hosts also address important unanswered questions surrounding the use of highly effective weight-loss medications, including appropriate treatment targets, the limitations of BMI as a measure, and the importance of preserving muscle mass and overall function. They emphasize the need to consider body composition, physical activity, resistance training, and patient characteristics—particularly in older adults or those at risk for frailty—when developing long-term treatment plans.The episode concludes with a reflection on the rapidly evolving landscape of diabetes care. The hosts highlight how advances in CGM technology and novel metabolic therapies are creating new opportunities to improve outcomes, personalize treatment approaches, and redefine the future management of people living with diabetes.Editors' Note: Isaacs reports disclosures with Dexcom, Abbott, Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Medtronic, Insulet, and others.

De tweede dag Lauwersmeer staat in het teken van hard werken voor je waarnemingen. We gaan namelijk een geheel rondje Lauwersmeer fietsen en dat is maar liefst 50km. Maar de sfeer zat er direct goed in, want we waren nog geen 20 minuten onderweg of we werden getrakteerd op het prachtige geluid van de wielewaal. En dan is het zoeken geblazen, want ook al is de vogel knal geel met zwart hij blijft verdomde lastig. Een typisch gevalletje; je hoort hem wel, maar zit hem niet. Maar er staan nog meer knallers op het dagprogramma. Zo moet Gip de Blauwborst nog en de mooiste vogel van Nederland: het baardmannetje. Kortom er is genoeg te beleven met als kers op de taart een vogel die menig deelnemer nog niet op zijn of haar lijst had. Arjan is overigens weer zo fanatiek dat hij zelfs de groep geen koffiebreak gunt, maar gelukkig steekt mooi-weer-vogelaar Gisbert daar een stokje voor. Het moet leuk blijven. En dan nog iets anders: De Vogelspotcast bestaat 5 jaar en dat vieren we met prijzen. Hiep hiep Hoera! Om deze prijzen te winnen vragen we ± 5 minuten van je tijd om een vragenlijst in te vullen. We zouden graaag beter weten wat jullie leuk vinden en wat misschien beter of anders kan. Met jouw antwoorden help je ons om de Vogelspotcast te verbeteren én om meer mensen dichter bij vogels te brengen. Je vindt de vragen lijst op www.vogelspotcast.com/vragenlijst - Alvast heel erg bedankt voor jouw hulp!Ps. Al ruim 700 mensen hebben de vragenlijst al ingevuld! Echt geweldig.

Dr. Spencer and Karl Nadolsky sit down with David W, a nurse practitioner and one of the actual patients enrolled in the Triumph 1 retatrutide phase 3 trial, to break down the data that was just presented at the American Diabetes Association conference and explain why everyone in obesity medicine is paying very close attention. In this episode they cover what retatrutide actually is and why adding glucagon agonism to the GLP-1 and GIP dual agonism of tirzepatide creates a meaningfully different drug with direct effects on liver lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and fat catabolism that you do not see with semaglutide or tirzepatide alone, what David's personal experience in the 12 milligram arm looked like from dose escalation through steady state including the GI side effects that faded by month seven and the heartburn that a low dose PPI fixed quickly, how David went from 240 pounds and a BMI of 35 down to 167 pounds by the end of the trial representing roughly 30 percent weight loss which is right at the trial average, what the Triumph 1 obesity trial found at 80 weeks with the nine and 12 milligram doses delivering nearly 26 and 28 percent average weight loss respectively and almost half of patients on the highest dose losing 30 percent or more, why the 104 week extension data showing patients who stayed on 12 milligrams reaching 30.3 percent average weight loss is being compared to bariatric surgery outcomes, what the Transcend type 2 diabetes trial showed with average A1C dropping to 5.9 percent on the 12 milligram dose in patients who were on no other diabetes medication, why the 41 percent triglyceride reduction and 20 percent LDL reduction are particularly interesting given that the mechanism appears to involve multiple pathways in the liver that tirzepatide and semaglutide do not touch, what the 70 percent reduction in WOMAC knee arthritis pain scores and 60 percent reduction in sleep apnea events mean for patients who have been told their only option is surgery, how Spencer plans to use retatrutide clinically once it is approved and which patients he thinks are the right candidates, why the gray market research peptide version currently circulating is something both doctors strongly advise against, and what Triumph 2 and Triumph 3 are measuring and when that data is expected.

We zitten inmiddels in de zesde maand van Gip's Big Year en er staan nu 210 soorten op zijn lijst. Je zou zeggen dat hij goed op schema ligt, maar zo werkt het natuurlijk niet helemaal. Een vogel per dag is in het begin relatief makkelijk, maar het glazen plafond nadert snel in de vogelwereld. Want waar vind je zo snel eigenlijk zeldzaamheden als een woudaap, grauwe kiekendief of smelleken? Gelukkig maken we dit jaar twee buitenlandreizen met SNP Natuurreizen die flink zoden aan de dijk zetten. En in Nederland is ook nog genoeg te vinden, waren we het al snel over eens met hen. Daarom gaan we samen met de Dwaalgasten op Nederlandse vogelreis naar het befaamde Lauwersmeergebied om daar 4 dagen met elkaar te vogelen. De weergoden zijn ons goed gestemd en er zit volgens Arjan een hele bijzondere vogel op ons te wachten!En dan nog iets anders: De Vogelspotcast bestaat 5 jaar en dat vieren we met prijzen.

Description:  How do GLP-1 receptor agonists or GIP agonists work and what is the impact for my psoriatic disease? Hear dermatologist Dr. Ronald Prussick and cardio-immunologist Dr. Brittany Weber answer such questions and more.           Join host Archie Franklin as he takes a deep dive into the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists and GIP agonists and the convergence of systemic inflammation related to psoriatic disease with renowned dermatologist and Vice Chair of the NPF Medical Board, Dr. Ronald Prussick from Washington Dermatology Center in Rockville and Frederick, MD, and, cardio-immunologist Dr. Brittany Weber, Director of the Cardio-Rheumatology/ Cardio-Dermatology Program at the University of Texas Southwestern. Learn more about the use of incretin hormones, the impact of weight management on psoriatic disease, metabolic and cardiovascular risk, as well as results from the TOGETHER-Pso and TOGETHER-PsA clinical trials.  This episode addresses the actions of incretin hormones (GLP-1 receptor agonist and GIP agonist) and how such use may be beneficial in the management of inflammation related to psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.  Thank you to Lilly for their support of this program activity.  Timestamps: (0:00)  Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered & guest welcome dermatologist Dr. Ronald Prussick and cardio-immunologist Dr. Brittany Weber.  (1:35)  What are incretin hormones and how GLP-1 or GIP receptor agonists (RA) inhibit appetite to initiate weight loss. (3:29)  Why GLP-1 RAs are of interest in the management of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (5:23)  The metabolic, cardiovascular, and psoriatic disease convergence. (7:19)  Will reduction of inflammation impact cardiovascular risk? (10:59) Treatment challenges associated with having psoriatic disease and being overweight or obese. (13:45)  Key points around the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists when managing psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (17:06)  Results of the TOGETHER-PsO and TOGETHER-PsA phase 3 clinical trials combining use of an IL-17 inhibitor and a GIP and GLP-1                receptor agonist therapy. (19:07)  Having the conversation of adding a GLP-1 RA medication to a treatment regimen. (22:40)  The paradigm shift of GLP-1 receptor agonists and the impact they can have on shared inflammatory pathways. Key Takeaways: ·       Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonists are two incretin hormones that assist in managing excess body weight -- which as a result can be helpful in managing inflammation in the body.   ·       Psoriasis isn't just a skin and joint disease. It's a complex network of systemic inflammation with shared inflammatory pathways that worsens with increased weight impacting the severity of the disease, and accelerates the risk of metabolic dysfunction, and cardiovascular disease.   ·       The best outcomes occur as a result of multidisciplinary collaboration to address the impact of excess weight and systemic inflammation. If you are struggling to lose weight with diet and exercise, speak with your medical team about your options including the use of GLP-1 or GIP agonists.   Guest Bios: Renowned dermatologist Ronald Prussick, M.D., Medical Director of the Washington Dermatology Center in Rockville and Fredrick, Maryland, specializes in the treatment of psoriasis along with other diseases of the skin, hair, and nails. Dr. Prussick is also a Clinical Associate Professor in Dermatology at George Washington University in Washington, D.C.. Dr. Prussick has a research interest in the impact of diet on psoriatic disease and metabolic health, first becoming interested after being involved in Dr. Joel Gelfand and Dr. Nehal Mehta's work in vascular inflammation trials using FDG-PET/CT scans to view systemic and cardiovascular inflammation associated with psoriatic disease. Dr. Prussick has since participated in the development of the 2018 Dietary Recommendations for Adults with Psoriasis or Psoriatic Arthritis and more recently the position statement "GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Psoriasis: A Primer from the National Psoriasis Foundation Medical Board". Dr. Prussick is Vice Chair of the NPF Medical Board which provides clinical direction, treatment guidance, and education oversight to the organization and its Executive leaders.  Brittany Weber, M.D., Ph.D. is a cardio-immunologist who is the Director of the Cardio-Rheumatology/ Cardio-Dermatology Program at the University of Texas Southwestern. She is also a member of the Division of Cardiology, a clinical investigator, and imaging specialist.

Welcome back to Diabetes Dialogue: Technology, Therapeutics, & Real-World Perspectives!In this episode, cohosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, discuss several major developments in diabetes technology and obesity therapeutics, beginning with Abbott's announcement that its dual glucose-ketone monitoring systems, Libre Duo and Libre Duo 10 Day, have received CE mark approval in Europe. The hosts describe the devices as the first continuous glucose-ketone monitors capable of simultaneously measuring glucose and ketone levels through a single wearable sensor, with real-time ketone monitoring intended to identify rising risk for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Bellini explains the rationale for separate 15-day adult and 10-day pediatric sensors, noting higher sensor failure rates and greater activity levels in children. Both hosts emphasize the potential clinical significance of continuous ketone monitoring, particularly for individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using insulin pumps, where interruptions in insulin delivery can rapidly precipitate DKA.The discussion further explores how continuous ketone monitoring may expand the safe use of SGLT2 inhibitors in people with T1D and other high-risk populations. Bellini highlights concerns surrounding euglycemic DKA associated with SGLT2 inhibitor therapy and suggests that continuous ketone data could help clinicians identify susceptible individuals earlier, potentially enabling safer and more individualized dosing strategies. Isaacs underscores the limitations of current ketone testing methods, particularly urine ketone testing, which she characterizes as outdated and insufficient for modern diabetes management. The hosts also review additional patient populations that may benefit from continuous ketone monitoring, including individuals with recurrent DKA, pediatric patients with highly variable glycemic patterns, and hospitalized patients at elevated risk for ketosis due to prolonged fasting or treatment interruptions.Isaacs and Bellini also consider practical questions surrounding implementation, including reimbursement, cost, workflow integration, and compatibility with automated insulin delivery systems. They discuss whether continuous ketone monitoring could eventually become standard of care in T1D and debate the broader implications of widespread ketone data availability, including potential consumer interest outside traditional diabetes populations. Both hosts stress the importance of prioritizing access for patients at highest risk for DKA while acknowledging that broader adoption could reshape diabetes monitoring paradigms similarly to the evolution of continuous glucose monitoring.The episode then turns to recent reports involving Dexcom sensors that were reportedly stolen after being removed from the manufacturing process for quality concerns. Bellini explains that some of the affected sensors may not have completed sterility and quality assurance procedures before entering secondary markets. The hosts caution clinicians to review affected lot numbers and encourage ongoing vigilance until additional information becomes available. They also discuss the challenges of communicating recalls and safety alerts directly to patients, particularly for users relying on standalone receivers that may not connect to cloud-based notification systems.Finally, Isaacs and Bellini review newly released topline results from the phase 3 TRIUMPH-1 trial evaluating retatrutide, Lilly's investigational triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Bellini summarizes findings demonstrating substantial weight reduction among adults with obesity or overweight without diabetes, including mean weight loss exceeding 28% at 80 weeks and continued weight reduction through 104 weeks without evidence of plateau. The hosts note that nearly half of participants achieved at least 30% weight loss, approaching outcomes historically associated with bariatric surgery. They also highlight low discontinuation rates and discuss the implications of future TRIUMPH studies evaluating retatrutide in patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Isaacs concludes that the emerging data signal a transformative shift in obesity treatment, with pharmacologic therapies increasingly approaching surgical efficacy and potentially reshaping long-term obesity management strategies.Editors' Note: Isaacs reports disclosures with Dexcom, Abbott, Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Medtronic, Insulet, and others. Bellini reports disclosures with Abbott Diabetes Care, MannKind, Povention Bio, and others.

I fatti risalgono allo scorso 22 maggio. All'uomo, su ordinanza del Gip del Tribunale di Vicenza, era fatto divieto di avvicinarsi all'abitazione e ai luoghi frequentati dalla donna. Il tutto a seguito di una denuncia per maltrattamenti in famiglia.

Het spant erom in de laatste aflevering van onze Extremadura reeks: gaan ze de kuifkoekoek vinden of niet... De vogel waar iedereen op hoopte heeft zich tot nu toe nog niet laten zien en naarmate het einde in zicht is, loopt de spanning dan ook flink op. Maar gelukkig is er nog genoeg anders moois te zien. Zo gaan we opzoek naar de oehoe en verschijnt de keizerarend voor een tweede keer ten tonelen. Ook splitst de groep zich voor het eerst op. De ene helft wil nogmaals naar Peña Falcón, terwijl de andere helft een mooie wandeling maakt met als doelsoort de zwarte tapuit. Maar hoe dan ook is iedereen voldaan en kijken we terug op een geweldige week vogelen in Spanje waar we maar liefst 126 nieuwe soorten hebben gezien (waarvan 54 voor Gip's Big Year lijst). Een groot succes! En als we dan ook nog op de valreep de kuifkoekoek vinden, zou dat helmaal mooi zijn. Wie weet... je hoort het in de laatste aflevering.Partnerships: Deze reis is mede mogelijk gemaakt door SNP Natuurreizen. Wil je nou ook naar Extremadura?

Deze aflevering begint met een telefoongesprek tussen Arjan en Gisbert. Arjan is natuurlijk razend benieuwd wat er allemaal gebeurd in zijn aanwezigheid ook al houdt hij Gip's lijst nauwlettend in de gaten. Daarna begint de dag met een geweldige wandeling van 10km. Voor de een doorgewinterde Camino wandelaar een "piece of cake", maar voor Christien een helse tocht. Ze houdt namelijk niet echt van wandelen... (best weird, maar prima). En of het een mooie wandeling was en ook nog eens prachtige waarnemingen. Wat wil een mens nog meer?!De volgende dag gaan we naar DE vogelplek van de Extremadura genaamd: Pena Falcon aka de Gierenrots. Deze plek is de natte droom van menig vogelaar en de parkeerplaats is dan ook al aardig vol als we arriveren. En geen woord gelogen. Zodra we uitstappen zijn de eerste zwarte ooievaars al gespot en is het een walhalla aan gieren. Maar ook de kleinere vogeltjes laten zich zien en zo komen we oog in oog met de befaamde blauwe rotslijster. Het is niet beter samen te vatten dan dat het: ontzettend, geweldig mooi is.

Optimal weight health in menopause isn't about eating less or exercising more—it's about finally understanding what your body has been trying to tell you.  If you've been frustrated with stubborn weight gain, low energy, or conflicting advice, this conversation will feel like a reset. We're breaking down the truth about GLP-1, gut health, hormones, and why your results may have stalled despite doing everything “right.”  This episode shifts the focus from quick fixes to a personalized strategy that actually works with your body, not against it. Because optimal weight health in menopause starts when you stop guessing and start listening. My Guest: Ashley Koff, RD, is an acclaimed weight-health expert, “Hollywood's Leading Dietitian” featured in InStyle and practitioner for more than 25 years. Koff is leading a transformative movement in personalized nutrition, turning “better, not perfect” choices into practical, sustainable strategies that deliver real outcomes.  She is the founder of The Better Nutrition Program (BNP) and author of USA Today bestselling Your Best Shot, which introduces weight-health hormones (GLP-1, GIP, CCK, PYY) as the regulators of weight health, offering the first-ever assessment of their function and a personalized optimization system—shot or not. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:02:35] What does optimal weight management really mean in menopause? [00:07:39] Are you ahead of your time and getting pushback for your approach? [00:03:17] What are GLP-1 hormones and why do they matter? [00:25:11] Is the fear valid that GLP-1 stops your body from producing its own hormones? [00:29:49] Should we be talking about something more important than muscle loss first? [00:31:21] How does cortisol actually influence weight health in menopause? How can women address the connection between cortisol, GLP-1, and weight? If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!

Na de voorpret aflevering gaat de reis nu echt beginnen. Direct na het ophalen van de busjes, gaan we op weg naar onze eerste bestemming Trujillo waar we de eerste 3 nachten verblijven. Maar tussen het vliegveld en het hotel zijn genoeg plekken om even te vogelen. Zelfs bij de eerste tankstop blijven we 20 minuten staan omdat we de eerste gieren al zien in de verte. Ja mensen, we zijn begonnen. Daarna volgen er nog een aantal stops waarbij Gip's eerste doelsoort wordt gezien: de kleine torenvalk. En ook al was de reis een tikkeltje vermoeiend, dat heb je nou eenmaal met reisdagen, ploffen we met met een voldaan gevoel en een aantal nieuwe soorten in een zalig bed dromend over alle vogels die we deze reis gaan ontdekken. Het is natuurlijk even wennDe volgende dag bewegen we ons naar het steppengebied rondom Trujillo. Dit prachtige natuurgebied biedt huis aan een paar van de topsoorten die je moet zien, namelijk: Spaanse keizerarend, grote en kleine trap, wit- en zwartbuik zandhoenders, bijeneters en Iberische klapekster. Wel is het even wennen voor Gip zonder Arjan op stap, een deelnemer merkt scherp op dat hij toch een beetje onrustig is. Maar gelukkig is onze enige echte Christien mee als content manager en het blijkt als snel dat ze een waardig vervanger is. Ook laten we deze reeks Arjan niet geheel buiten beschouwing. Gip belt elke dag getrouw met zijn leermeester om de dag te bespreken en tips op te halen. Hoe dit gaat zul je allemaal meemaken in de komende afleveringen, maar we kunnen je een ding beloven: het belooft een spektakel te worden.

https://www.otplinks.comA new GLP-1 and glucagon agonist dropped data that was supposed to rival retatrutide, just without the GIP, and on the surface the results look solid. But that is not the real story. Even when people successfully lose weight, a large percentage gain it back, and for years that has been framed as a failure of discipline or willpower.This episode breaks down new research that helps explain why that happens. A study published in EMBO Reports shows that obesity can leave lasting changes at the cellular level through epigenetics, where gene activity is altered without changing the DNA itself. Researchers found that immune cells remained in a pro inflammatory, metabolically altered state even after weight loss, with some of these changes potentially lasting for years.In practical terms, this means the body does not simply return to a neutral baseline after weight loss. It can continue to operate as if it is still in an obese state, which helps explain why so many people feel like their body is working against them. This shifts the conversation away from personal responsibility and toward biology, reinforcing the idea that obesity is a chronic, relapsing metabolic disease.That distinction matters because it changes how treatment should be approached. If the underlying biology does not fully reset, then short term solutions are unlikely to be effective long term. These medications may not just be tools for losing weight, but part of ongoing management for a system that retains a memory of obesity and requires continued intervention.

Dr. Spencer Nadolsky and Karl sit down with Dr. Adam Auton, geneticist at 23andMe, to break down a brand new paper using data from over 27,000 people that identified specific genetic variants linked to how well GLP-1 medications work and how likely someone is to experience side effects. 23andMe has over 11 million people in their research database and used voluntary survey data on medication use, dosage, duration, weight loss, and side effects to match against genetic profiles at scale, making this one of the most powerful datasets anyone has brought to this question. In this episode they cover how genome-wide association studies work and why scanning 600,000 genetic variants at once lets researchers find signals they never could have predicted in advance, why the first signal that jumped out of the data was a variant right in the GLP-1 receptor itself and why that was the moment the team knew they were on the right track, why the same variant that predicts better efficacy also predicts a higher risk of side effects and what that tells us about how the drug is being processed, why tirzepatide users showed a separate signal in the GIP receptor that modulates side effects rather than weight loss, why carrying both variants could make someone 14 times more likely to experience side effects on tirzepatide, why genetics explains roughly 10 percent of weight loss variation and what the other 90 percent looks like, why women tend to respond better than men and why diabetics tend to respond less well, what the future of this research looks like including who regains weight after stopping and whether those patterns are genetically predictable, and why heritability is a statistical measure that gets badly misunderstood even by clinicians.

The obesity medication landscape just changed — again. One brand-new pill is already in pharmacies, and five more are in various stages of approval. But the real story isn't the drugs themselves: it's what they're revealing about how your metabolism actually works, and why willpower was never the problem.This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor break down six metabolic medications — two newly FDA-approved and four in the pipeline — covering everything from a flexible new oral GLP-1 pill to drugs that target the brain's central metabolic pathway directly. Dr. Cooper explains the science behind each one, who might benefit, and what the pipeline tells us about the future of metabolic care. This is the most comprehensive drug update the show has done, and it arrives at a moment when the field is moving faster than ever.Key TakeawaysFoundayo (orforglipron), approved April 1st, is the first small molecule oral GLP-1 — no empty stomach requirement, no cold chain, and potentially lower production costs long-term.The amylin hormone may uniquely address both "I'm nourished" and "I weigh enough" signals in the brain — making the amylin pathway a powerful and underutilized target.Retatrutide (Lilly's triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors) is showing unprecedented effectiveness plus significant non-scale benefits, including fatty liver reduction — but is still years from approval.The brain's melanocortin 4 receptor is the CEO of metabolism — regulating energy expenditure, appetite, and insulin — and new drugs targeting it represent the deepest intervention yet.Many of these medications are showing weight-independent benefits, including improvements in kidney, liver, cardiovascular risk, sleep apnea, and joint health that have nothing to do with how much weight is lost.Notable Quote"Everybody focuses on appetite, and you just need to eat less. But now with these medications and how they actually affect our biology, it becomes very clear that there's so much more to this." — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: fatsciencepodcast.comCooper Center for Metabolism: coopermetabolic.comResources from Dr. Cooper: coopermetabolic.com/resourcesJoin Our Community: patreon.com/cw/FatSciencePodcastSubmit Your Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comFat Science is supported by the Diabesity Institute, a nonprofit dedicated to increasing access to effective, science-based metabolic care.Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

For the last year and a half, the talk of construction sites and Bay Street was about a string of violent incidents targeting GFL, the waste management giant, and GIP, its sister construction company. There was suspected arson, vandalism, and executives' homes were targeted in shootings in both 2024 and this past March. Earlier this month, police made an arrest in connection with the 2024 shootings: Ilan Philosophe, the founder of a competing company, Astro Excavating Inc. The Globe's Robyn Doolittle and Tim Kiladze spent the last year and a half reporting on this, including hours speaking with Philosophe before his arrest. Today, they bring us the full story about the shootings, menacing and hostile text messages, and fights over lucrative construction contracts. Questions? Comments? Ideas?

This conversation dives headfirst into one of the most controversial and least understood side effects of GLP-1 medications, what many are now calling the “Ozempic personality.” In this candid interview, Dr. Spencer Nadolsky joins On The Pen to unpack the growing reports of anhedonia, a flattening of motivation, desire, and emotional highs that some patients experience, especially at higher doses of tirzepatide and similar therapies.What starts as a discussion about how these medications work in the brain quickly turns into something much deeper. We explore how GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists don't just reduce hunger, they fundamentally alter the brain's reward system, dampening cravings, food noise, and in some cases, the very drive to seek pleasure at all. That is where the idea of the “Ozempic personality” begins to take shape, not as a diagnosis, but as a shared patient experience that is only now being taken seriously.Dave opens up about his own journey, spending years at the highest dose and slowly realizing that while the medication gave him control over food and blood sugar, it also quietly muted parts of his identity. Hobbies faded. Motivation shifted. The highs and lows of life became more… flat. And it wasn't until stepping away that he could see the contrast clearly.Dr. Nadolsky brings clinical perspective to match the lived experience, explaining how this isn't classic depression, but something more nuanced. Patients aren't necessarily sad, they just stop wanting things. He shares how often this shows up in his practice, how he identifies it, and most importantly, how adjusting dose rather than stopping treatment altogether can restore balance.The conversation also raises bigger questions about transparency in clinical trials, what drug companies knew about these “anti-hedonic” effects, and why something so impactful may not have been formally tracked. At the same time, both Dave and Dr. Nadolsky emphasize what matters most, these medications are still life changing, even life saving, but they are not one size fits all.If you've ever felt like something changed beyond just your appetite while on a GLP-1, this is the conversation you've been waiting for. It puts language to an experience thousands are having but struggling to explain, and it gives you something even more important, a path forward.Watch the full interview to understand the reality behind the “Ozempic personality,” how to recognize it, and how to work with your doctor to find your own sweet spot.

This special Tick Boot Camp Podcast crossover features the full International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS) webinar recording, “At the Frontlines of Chronic Illness: Conversations with ILADS Experts.” In this dynamic panel discussion, leading clinicians and specialists unpack why Lyme disease and other infection-associated chronic illnesses are so misunderstood, why testing fails so many patients, and what it really takes to heal—brain, immune system, mitochondria, and terrain included. Moderated by Rich Johannesen (Tick Boot Camp), the panel delivers practical insights and hopeful, patient-centered guidance for anyone navigating complex chronic illness—whether you're a patient, caregiver, clinician, or advocate. Featured Panelists Chris Winfrey, MD — Psychiatrist; Medical Director, New Image Wellness Nicole Bell — “The Lyme Disease Engineer”; CEO, Galaxy Diagnostics Tania Dempsey, MD — Medical Director, AIM Center for Personalized Medicine Melanie Stein, ND — Naturopathic Doctor; Author focused on cellular wellness and healing terrain Host/Moderator: Rich Johannesen (Tick Boot Camp) ILADS Intro: Ali Moresco (ILADS) Episode Highlights ILADS Mission and Why This Webinar Matters The webinar opens with ILADS' mission: improving diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease and associated illnesses through research, education, and policy. ILADS emphasizes physician training and patient-centered care, while also supporting the educational mission of ILADEF. Rich frames the night as a rare opportunity to hear from experts working at the front lines of complex chronic illness—especially for patients who've been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their symptoms “don't make sense.” Segment 1: Brain Health, Neuroimmune Illness, and Why Lyme “Feels Like Dementia” Chris Winfrey, MD Dr. Winfrey introduces a core theme: Lyme is not only an infection—it often behaves like a neuroimmune illness. Key takeaways: The brain is a high-energy, high-immune-demand organ, uniquely vulnerable to infection-driven inflammation and toxicity. Lyme can disrupt brain function through: Blood flow issues Synaptic dysfunction Myelin damage Network-level disruption, not just “neurotransmitters” He describes brain function through networks that Lyme can destabilize: Default Mode Network (internal reflection) Salience Network (switching between networks) Central Executive Network (planning/organization) Action Network (execution) Autonomic Network (regulation) Limbic Network (threat/fear response) The result: patients often describe “brain shutdown,” confusion, cognitive impairment, and even dementia-like symptoms. A major reframing: Emotions are not “non-physical.” They are measurable physiological states. Lyme-driven nervous system injury can create emotional disturbance because the biology is disturbed. Segment 2: Poly-microbial Infection, Fight-or-Flight, and the Belief-Healing Loop Winfrey + Rich Discussion Rich frames humans as spiritual, emotional, and physical beings, and asks how chronic infection impacts both body and emotional resilience. Key points: Lyme can cross the blood-brain barrier and affect virtually any organ system. The nervous system becomes a “central battleground,” and measurement is hard because nervous system dysfunction isn't captured well by simple bloodwork. Rich and Dr. Winfrey explore how illness disrupts perception, decision-making, and our ability to interpret the world—especially when gut function and intuition feel “offline.” The healing paradox: Chronic stress and “fighting your way to healing” can backfire. Dr. Winfrey emphasizes that healing requires a parasympathetic state—rest, digest, repair—and that this often involves acceptance, surrender, trust, and safety. Segment 3: The State of Testing—Why So Many Patients Test Negative Nicole Bell (Galaxy Diagnostics) Nicole shares her personal motivation and professional mission: testing determines treatment, reimbursement, and belief—and too many patients are failed by existing tools. Indirect testing (antibody testing): The standard approach relies on antibodies—meaning it depends on the immune system behaving predictably. But Lyme and other stealth pathogens evade and suppress immune responses. Even in controlled research models, two infected subjects can show completely different antibody patterns. Immunosuppression (illness severity, medications like steroids, immune dysregulation) can reduce antibody reliability. Direct testing (pathogen detection):Nicole contrasts Lyme testing with illnesses like COVID—where you use tests that look for the pathogen itself (PCR/antigen), not just antibodies. Why direct detection is hard in Lyme: Pathogens can be low abundance They can be tissue-sequestered Sampling matters Why urine can matter for Lyme: Lyme may not stay in blood, but it can shed proteins/antigens that filter into urine. Galaxy's approach includes methods to capture, concentrate, and detect those markers. New diagnostics focus: Genus-level screening for the “3Bs” (Borrelia, Bartonella, Babesia) Reducing guessing when symptoms overlap and co-infections “masquerade” as each other Segment 4: Immune Dysfunction, Mast Cells, and Why Antibody Testing Can Go Haywire Tania Dempsey, MD (AIM Center for Personalized Medicine) Dr. Dempsey explains the immune system through two major branches: Innate immune system (fast, primitive defense) Adaptive immune system (antibodies, longer-term response) Mast cells as first responders: Mast cells detect “danger” and release inflammatory mediators (histamine and many others). In chronic infection, mast cells can remain persistently activated, releasing hundreds of inflammatory compounds. Why antibody tests fail (two patterns): Immune suppression → insufficient antibody production → false negatives Immune chaos → excessive, inappropriate antibody production → confusing positives - Positive Lyme bands “everywhere” - Positive autoantibodies without classic autoimmune disease patterns - “Everything looks positive” because signaling is dysfunctional Her central philosophy:It's not only about killing the bug. It's about fixing immune regulation so the body can actually clear or control infection. She also names the broader context: modern toxic load (mold, plastics, pesticides, “forever chemicals”) primes the immune system into dysregulation before infections even arrive. Segment 5: Advanced Immune-Modulating Tools Therapeutic Plasma Exchange + SOT Dr. Dempsey discusses therapies she's excited about, especially for complex, stuck cases: Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE / plasmapheresis): Removes plasma (where antibodies, inflammatory mediators, and “garbage” accumulate) Replaces with albumin (and sometimes IVIG) Concept: reduce inflammatory burden + toxic load to reset the terrain SOT (Supportive Oligonucleotide Technique): Molecular targeted approach designed to reduce replication of specific pathogens More targeted than “wide-net” antimicrobial approaches Used strategically after lowering inflammatory/toxic burden She emphasizes: not for everyone, not a universal cure—but promising enough to merit formal publication. Segment 6: GLP-1 Agonists and Mast Cell Stabilization “Brain-melt” moment, revisited Dr. Dempsey explains why drugs commonly known for diabetes/weight loss may have immune benefits: Mast cells have receptors for GLP and GIP hormones Patients showed improvements beyond weight: cognitive function, inflammation, immune stability She describes: Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) Tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) Emerging triple agonists (GLP-1/GIP/glucagon pathways) Her clinical approach has moved these agents earlier in care plans for immune stabilization in select cases. Segment 7: Cellular Healing, Mitochondria, and the Terrain Melanie Stein, ND Dr. Stein brings it home: healing often stalls when we focus only on killing pathogens, but don't repair the cellular damage. Core concepts: Lyme damages cell membranes, disrupting what goes in/out and how cells communicate. It contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction, reducing ATP (energy currency). If cells stay in “alarm mode,” healing remains blocked. Cell membrane therapy and terrain support: IV and oral lipid support (phospholipids, phosphatidylcholine, omega fatty acids) Personalized support based on lipidomic patterns Supportive therapies to reduce oxidative stress and “toxic fats” Focus on signaling safety to the body—so repair can resume Cell Danger Response:A key theme: even after infections reduce, the body may remain stuck in a persistent defense state, requiring cellular and nervous system support to exit “danger mode.” Regulation Before Eradication Panel Reflection Round As the panel closes, several themes converge: Limbic system + autonomic nervous system regulation is foundational “Regulation becomes before eradication” Healing requires safety, predictability, and nervous system calm Chronic illness can block our ability to connect—especially in relationships—because survival physiology dominates Dr. Dempsey adds that limbic retraining / nervous system reset is often the first step she starts with in her practice. Question and Answer Highlights Lyme and Cancer? The panel notes emerging signals connecting tick-borne illness and certain cancers, but emphasizes that more research is needed to determine causality. Herniated discs, connective tissue, and chronic infection The discussion highlights potential links through: connective tissue disruption collagen damage mast cell mediators (enzymes that affect tissue integrity) infection-driven inflammation Cross-reactive antibody results (example: Brucella) The group explains how antibody testing can produce confusing results due to immune dysregulation and cross-reactivity—another reason why interpretation and test methodology matter. Nasal testing / sinus terrain While not a mainstream Lyme diagnostic route, the panel references nasal/sinus colonization (especially with mold-related or chronic inflammatory patterns) as a terrain factor that can influence recovery. Resources Mentioned Center for Lyme Action – State of Lyme Disease Research paper (Nicole Bell collaboration) ILADS Provider Search International Lyme and Associated Diseases Educational Foundation (ILADEF) Donations (supports education and clinician training) Final Message to Listeners This episode is a reminder that Lyme disease and infection-associated chronic illness are not one-dimensional problems. The path forward often requires: better diagnostics immune regulation nervous system support cellular repair personalized care and hope that the body can recover when the right puzzle pieces come together

What if weight loss has never been the right goal in the first place? In this episode, Dr. Taz sits down with registered dietitian Ashley Koff, RD, author of Your Best Shot, to unpack why the conversation around GLP-1 medications is much bigger than Ozempic, Wegovy, or tirzepatide alone.This episode reframes the entire GLP-1 conversation by shifting away from weight loss as the goal and toward what Ashley Koff calls “weight health.” Instead of treating Ozempic, Wegovy, tirzepatide, and related medications as magic fixes or villains, the conversation explores the deeper hormonal ecosystem behind appetite, blood sugar, digestion, inflammation, body composition, and metabolic health.Ashley explains that GLP-1 and GIP are part of a larger family of peptide hormones made in the gut lining, and that when this system is disrupted by poor digestion, stress, gut lining damage, nutrient insufficiency, dehydration, medications, or microbiome imbalance, the body's weight regulation becomes suboptimal. She argues that many people are not failing at weight loss. Their body simply does not have what it needs to function optimally.If you're dealing with weight changes, food noise, metabolic dysfunction, or feeling like your body is not responding the way it should, and want deeper, root-cause support, join the Circle here:

 Are GLP-1 medications like Ozempic the only path to weight loss and metabolic health or is there more to the story? In this episode of the IRH Clinician's Corner, Margaret Floyd Barry sits down with registered dietitian and personalized nutrition expert Ashley Koff to unpack one of the most talked-about topics in health right now: GLP-1 medications, metabolic signaling, and sustainable weight management. With over 25 years of experience, Ashley shares a refreshing, clinically grounded perspective that goes beyond trends and into what actually works long-term. Inside this episode, we explore: The fascinating origin story of GLP-1 medications (inspired by the Gila monster) and how they became a weight loss breakthrough The four key "switch" hormones that regulate metabolism, appetite, and weight—and how they actually work together Inside Ashley's GLP-1 Optimization System, including her signature "pizza framework" for assessing root-cause imbalances Simple, practical ways to assess your own digestion, hydration, and metabolic health at home Clinical strategies to reduce and manage GLP-1 medication side effects while supporting long-term results   If you're a clinician, health coach, or someone navigating your own metabolic health journey, this episode will help you cut through the noise and understand what's actually driving results.

How Continuous Glucose Monitors Can Optimize Metabolic Health—and Where GLP-1 Drugs Fit: Emergency physician-turned-preventive/metabolic medicine specialist Dr. Paul Kolodzik of Metabolic MD reveals how continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are a tool not only for diabetics but also for non-diabetics and pre-diabetics to personalize diet, sleep, and exercise by seeing real-time glucose patterns instead of relying on fingersticks or A1c averages. Kolodzik describes CGM use in his clinic (two-week diagnostic wear, then therapeutic guidance), highlights insulin resistance, fasting insulin testing, glucose variability, and the role of low-carb eating, intermittent fasting, and strength training to improve metabolic syndrome, triglycerides, and fatty liver. They discuss CGM sourcing/cost, device mechanics and accuracy, possible future noninvasive wearables, and GLP-1/GIP weight-loss drugs, emphasizing supervised, limited-dose use with protein and lifestyle changes to avoid muscle loss and weight regain. A free PDF of Kolodzik's book is offered HERE.

Both are GLP-1 and glucagon dual agonists. Think of them like retatrutide minus the GIP component. And that glucagon piece is what makes them special.I go through the trial data for both compounds. We're talking up to 21% weight loss with mazdutide and 80% liver fat reduction. Survodutide earned FDA breakthrough therapy designation for MASH based on a 62% resolution rate. These are serious numbers.Here's what most people don't realize. These two peptides are NOT the same. Mazdutide runs close to a 50/50 split between GLP-1 and glucagon agonism. Survodutide is roughly 8 to 1 in favor of GLP-1. That changes everything about tolerability, appetite suppression, and how much metabolic burn you're actually getting.I also cover practical use cases. Cycling off reta without losing momentum. Choosing between the two based on whether you need more appetite control or more energy expenditure. Dosing guidance for people just starting out. And why escalating too fast is still the number one mistake people make with GLP-1 peptides.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, and tirzepatide are dominating headlines—but what if the real breakthrough isn't just the shot, but understanding the body's own weight-health hormones? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Anna Cabeca—triple board-certified OB-GYN and The Girlfriend Doctor—sits down with renowned dietitian and personalized nutrition pioneer Ashley Koff, RD, to unpack the science behind GLP-1, the deeper root causes of metabolic dysfunction, and how we can activate the body's natural appetite-regulating hormones. Together they explore why weight health is about far more than calories or willpower. Ashley shares her personal journey into functional nutrition, the hidden hormonal ecosystem behind appetite and metabolism, and how digestion, gut health, and lifestyle choices influence the hormones that regulate cravings, satiety, inflammation, and metabolic balance. Ashley also introduces the framework from her new book Your Best Shot: The Personalized System for Optimal Weight Health—GLP-1 Shot or Not, revealing why sustainable health comes from personalized strategies—not quick fixes. If you've wondered whether GLP-1 medications are right for you—or how to support your metabolism naturally—this conversation is packed with practical, empowering insights. Ashley Koff, RD is the founder of The Better Nutrition Program, Nutrition Course Director for the UC Irvine Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute's Integrative and Functional Medicine Fellowship, and faculty at the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy.

I'll see you there at the Breakthrough T1D summit this weekend. And we have two Club 1921 events for health care providers and patient leaders happening in April – head on over to the website for more. Okay.. our top story this week: XX Metformin may be linked to the slower progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Among people with diabetes who were older than 55, those taking metformin had a 37% lower chance of developing intermediate AMD over a five-year period compared with individuals who were not using the medication. It's one of the leading causes of vision loss in the US and many other western countries. These researchers now say a clinical trial is the next step. https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-discover-surprising-eye-benefit-of-widely-used-diabetes-drug/ XX new study suggests people with type 1 diabetes may be nearly three times as likely to develop dementia compared with people without diabetes. Similarly, people with type 2 diabetes may have roughly twice the risk of dementia compared with those without diabetes. However, the study found an association rather than proof of causation, meaning diabetes was linked to dementia risk but was not shown to directly cause it.   https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2026-03-19/both-types-of-diabetes-increase-dementia-risk XX Researchers in Japan say they've developed an insulin pill… in mice.  The study, published in the journal Molecular Pharmaceutics, tested the delivery of oral insulin by building a carrier peptide called DNP-V. This peptide helps to transport insulin through the small intestine, where protein drug absorption is usually poor. The result was a rapid and significant drop in blood glucose, as well as a sustained (longer-term) decrease. The mice's blood sugar was reduced to near-normal levels. Although the researchers are optimistic about the findings translating to larger therapeutic models, they noted that the results in mice do not guarantee the same outcome in humans, and that more research is needed. https://www.foxnews.com/health/needle-free-diabetes-management-could-horizon-study-suggests   XX   Lilly says it's next-generation obesity drug retatutride cleared its first late-stage trial on Type 2 diabetes patients. The drug lowered hemoglobin A1C by an average of 1.7% to 2% across different doses at 40 weeks compared with placebo, and helped patients lose an average of 16.8% of their weight. Retatrutide also met the study's second goal, helping patients at the highest dose lose an average of 16.8% of their weight, or 36.6 pounds, at 40 weeks, when evaluating only patients who stayed on the drug. When analyzing all participants, including those who discontinued treatment, the highest dose of the drug helped patients lose 15.3% of their weight. The company was also "very pleased" with the relatively low discontinuation rates due to side effects, which were up to 5%, he added. But Lilly has yet to file for approval of the drug for obesity or diabetes. The company expects to report findings from seven additional phase three trials on the drug by the end of the year. Still, retatrutide's A1C reduction doesn't appear to be the greatest Lilly has seen within its portfolio: The highest dose of Zepbound lowered the measure by more than 2% at 40 weeks in two separate trials on diabetes patients. Dubbed the "triple G" drug, retatrutide works by mimicking three hunger-regulating hormones – GLP-1, GIP and glucagon – rather than just one or two like existing treatments. That appears to have more potent effects on a person's appetite and satisfaction with food than other treatments.   https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/19/eli-lillys-obesity-drug-retatrutide-clears-late-stage-diabetes-trial.html XX   The MiniMed Flex gets FDA approval. Thi is a new design from the company formerly known as Medtronic. It's about half the size* of the MiniMed™ 780G pump, no screen – smartphone controlled – and has the SmartGuard™ algorithm with Meal Detection™ technolog. At commercial launch, MiniMed Flex™ will support the company's newest sensor portfolio, including Simplera Sync™ sensor and the Instinct sensor, made by Abbott. MiniMed also announced the MiniMed™ Forward Program, which allows customers who start on the MiniMed™ 780G system to upgrade to the MiniMed Flex™ system for $0. MiniMed Flex™ is cleared for individuals ages 7 and older with type 1 diabetes, and for individuals 18 years and older with insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/minimed-announces-fda-clearance-of-minimed-flex-the-companys-smallest-insulin-pump-featuring-its-first-smartphone-controlled-design-302716864.html   XX Lots of new out of the recent ATTD conference.. some headlines: New study from the UK shows that Ketone Monitoring Could Significantly Reduce DKA Risks in people with type 1 and type 2. This was a study by Abbott which recently submitted a continuous dual glucose-ketone monitor to the FDA for clearance – if approved, it could be available in the U.S. later this year. -- The first modified insulin producing cells are still working 14 months after transplant – without the need for immunosuppressive drugs. This is from Sana which now plans a study of a new therapy.. same gene-editing strategy with lab-grown, stem-cell-derived insulin-producing cells. -- Protein looks like it helps avoid lows during exercise. Both high and low doses of whey protein before exercise were effective, significantly reducing the risk of hypoglycemia by five to 10 times.   Researchers noted that the body's response to protein was rapid (within 20 minutes), which suggests taking it close to the beginning of exercise could be beneficial for preventing hypoglycemia. Though more research is needed, there was also evidence showing protein intake could be beneficial for prolonged fasting and preventing overnight lows. -- More info about type 1 and GLP medications. Researchers at ATTD presented the results of a small, seven-month study assessing the effectiveness of semaglutide for people with type 1 diabetes and obesity. During the trial, 36% of participants taking semaglutide spent more than 70% of their time in range, less than 4% of their time below range, and lost more than 5% of their body weight compared to those not taking semaglutide.   Treatment with semaglutide was also associated with reductions in cholesterol and blood pressure. Based on all of these changes, the researchers calculated that the participants who received semaglutide had significantly reduced their risk of heart disease over the next 10 years.   Other studies show that since 2020, prescriptions of GLP-1 medications have grown exponentially for adults with type 1 diabetes between the ages of 18 and 85. https://diatribe.org/diabetes-research/top-diabetes-news-attd-2026   XX Lots of talk about fully closed loops.. CamDiab unveiled theirs.. called Liberty.. which the company says it's the world's first fully closed loop commercial launch. CamDiab offers the FDA-approved mylife CamAPS FX app for automating insulin delivery in MyLife's (formerly Ypsomed Diabetes Care's) insulin delivery pumps. The mylife CamAPS FX on iOS has full compatibility with leading continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). Those include the FreeStyle Libre 3 and Libre 3 Plus from Abbott and the Dexcom G6 so customers can use their preferred device. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/camdiab-unveils-fully-closed-loop-insulin-feature/ XX Insulet reported data on a fully closed-loop automated insulin delivery system in people with Type 2 diabetes. The 24 people in the trial spent 24% more time in the target blood glucose range using the system than when receiving standard injection therapy. Insulet plans to start a pivotal study this year and aims to launch in 2028. Rival insulin pump manufacturer Tandem is on a similar course. Tandem CEO John Sheridan told investors on an earnings call last month that his team plans to start a pivotal trial this year to support a filing with the Food and Drug Administration in 2027. Medtronic disclosed the start of a pivotal trial of its Vivera fully closed-loop algorithm last month, shortly before spinning off the program as part of the MiniMed initial public offering. The algorithm, which is designed to eliminate carb counting and manual food bolusing, achieved a mean time in range of 73.8% without manual user input in a feasibility study.   https://www.medtechdive.com/news/insulet-posts-clinical-data-on-fully-closed-loop-insulin-delivery-system/814516/ XX Congrats to all honored by the 2026 National Scientific and Health Care Achievement Awards from the American Diabetes Association! Shout out to Diana Isaacs, PharmD, BCACP, BC-ADM, CDCES: 2026 Outstanding Educator in Diabetes Award and to  Korey Hood who receives the Richard Rubin award. Dr. Rubin was a pioneer in behavioral science and committed to keeping the person with diabetes at the center of research and care.

In this essential episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely tackles a massive "information vacuum" surrounding some of the most talked-about medications today. With women aged 50–64 now the primary users of GLP-1 and GIP medications, Dr. Lovely steps in to provide the critical nutritional and physiological guidance that is too often missing from the standard prescription process. She clarifies that for millions of women, these are not "vanity tools" but life-changing medicines for treating chronic diseases like obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Dr. Lovely breaks down the science behind semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), explaining how they mimic natural hormones to regulate hunger and insulin. However, she warns that simply taking the medication without a support plan is "wishful thinking" that can lead to muscle loss and frailty. To help you thrive while on these medications, she introduces her Six Foundational Pillars of Support: Hydration: Why thirst signals disappear alongside appetite and why 2–3 liters of water daily (plus electrolytes) is your best defense against nausea and fatigue. Protein & Muscle Preservation: The non-negotiable need for high protein intake to prevent sarcopenia and the "trade-off" of metabolic health for physical frailty. Resistance Training: Why you must send a signal to your body to keep its muscle through simple, home-based bodyweight exercises or resistance bands. Fiber: Managing the common side effect of constipation by hitting a 25-gram daily target through food first. Nutrient Gaps: Why eating less means absorbing less, and how a "morning stack" of micronutrients and greens can bridge the gap. Mental & Emotional Support: Preparing for the "emotional surfacing" that happens when food is no longer available as a coping mechanism. This episode is a masterclass in health sovereignty, empowering you to move through the menopausal transition stronger and more resilient, rather than depleted.   Thank you to our sponsors for this episode:

Today, I had the honor of connecting with Ashley Koff. She is a leading voice in personalized nutrition and the founder of the Better Nutrition Program. With over 25 years of experience and the groundbreaking GLP-1 Optimization System to her name, she's helped redefine how we approach sustainable weight health. In our conversation, we dive into how her book reframes the concept of healthy weight. We explore integrative perspectives on digestive health and GLP-1s, why many women blame themselves when they struggle to lose weight, and how Ashley's framework helps them remove that self-blame. We also discuss issues surrounding info-besity and the “less is more” approach, natural ways to support appetite regulation and satiety signaling, key areas of digestive health, and the importance of detoxification. Ashley also shares the red flags she sees in women who are undernourishing themselves or over-fasting, things to consider when you want to stop taking GLP-1s, and her opinions on new drug therapies. Join us for today's thought-provoking and insightful conversation around metabolic health and weight-loss resistance for women in middle age, perimenopause, and menopause. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The interconnection that exists between digestion, hormones, and metabolic signaling How the hormonal fluctuation that occurs in perimenopause disrupts women's digestion What drives satiety?  How GLP-1 medications simply amplify, extend, or mimic an existing communication loop within the body rather than creating new pathways Why do women blame themselves when they cannot lose weight? How info-besity blocks the body from doing what it is naturally designed to do  Why detoxification is essential for supporting natural digestive and metabolic processes The red flags that indicate undernourishment or over-fasting in women What you need to think about before stopping GLP-1s Bio: Ashley Koff, RD, is the USA Today bestselling author of⁠ Your Best Shot⁠ (HarperOne) and founder of⁠ The Better Nutrition Program⁠ (BNP).

This episode covers: • Microplastics Are Destroying Male Fertility and Metabolism New research is putting microplastics in a category most men still are not taking seriously: direct reproductive and hormone risk. A 2024 study detected microplastics in every human testicle examined, with polyethylene and PVC among the most common polymers. PVC is especially relevant because it's often tied to chemical additives that can disrupt endocrine signaling. The broader body of evidence points to micro- and nanoplastics crossing barriers like the blood–testis barrier, driving inflammation and oxidative stress in the testes, and showing associations with impaired sperm quality and hormone disruption. The longevity move here is reducing overall load: better water filtration, less plastic food contact, no heating food in plastic, fewer packaged foods, and taking indoor dust and air quality seriously, especially for men thinking about fertility now or hormone resilience over decades. • Sources: – Study (PubMed): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38745431/ – Coverage: https://people.com/microplastics-in-every-human-testicle-infertility-8651215 • Fear of Aging Is Linked to Faster Biological Aging A new study ties aging anxiety to measurable acceleration in biological aging using DNA methylation clocks. People who reported more worry and negative beliefs about aging showed faster epigenetic aging signals, and the molecular differences clustered around stress and inflammatory pathways. In plain terms, chronic threat-mode thinking around aging maps onto biology that looks older on the clocks. For a longevity audience, this is a practical reminder that mental inputs affect physiological outputs. If your day-to-day mindset is constant pressure and decline narratives, that can show up downstream in stress biology and inflammatory tone. A smarter play is building a longevity framework around function, strength, purpose, and community, alongside the usual pillars like sleep, training, and metabolic health. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-older-links-health-faster-epigenetic.html • Additional source: https://www.nyu.edu/about/news-publications/news/2026/february/aging-anxiety.html • Retatrutide, the Triple-Agonist Weight-Loss Drug Pushing Bariatric-Level Results Retatrutide is a triple agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, and the weight-loss numbers being reported are massive. In a 68-week study in people with obesity and knee osteoarthritis, the highest dose group averaged about 28.7% body-weight loss, along with meaningful improvements in knee pain and function. This is the next phase of incretin medicine: multi-agonist drugs that can move body weight by a quarter or more. For biohackers, the performance and longevity angle is implementation: preserving lean mass through resistance training, hitting protein targets, monitoring micronutrients, and building a maintenance plan that doesn't collapse the moment the drug stops. The upside is cardiometabolic risk reduction at scale. The key is running it with structure. • Sources: – Eli Lilly release: https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/lillys-triple-agonist-retatrutide-delivered-weight-loss-average – Coverage: https://nypost.com/2026/02/18/health/people-dropped-out-of-retatrutide-trial-for-losing-too-much-weight/ – Background: https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2026/02/whats-next-for-glp-1s/ • AI Can Predict 130 Diseases From a Single Night of Sleep Stanford's SleepFM project shows how much long-horizon health information is encoded in sleep. Researchers trained a foundation model on roughly 585,000 hours of clinical polysomnography data from about 65,000 people. From a single night of sleep study signals, the model could estimate risk for 130 conditions, including dementia, heart attack, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, stroke, atrial fibrillation, and all-cause mortality, and it generalized across cohorts better than simple demographic baselines. The big implication is that sleep architecture and micro-patterns (stage distribution, fragmentation, breathing stability, micro-arousals) function like a dense biomarker stream for systemic aging and disease risk. Expect better sensors and more validated risk dashboards over time. Right now, this is another reason to treat sleep as a core diagnostic pillar, not just a recovery habit. • Sources: – Stanford Medicine: https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2026/01/ai-sleep-disease.html – Paper (Nature Medicine): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-04133-4 • Living at High Altitude May Protect Against Diabetes by Turning Red Blood Cells Into Glucose Sinks For years, population data has suggested lower diabetes rates at higher elevations. New mechanistic work is pointing to a surprising driver: red blood cells changing how they handle glucose under low oxygen conditions. In hypoxia, red blood cells can behave like glucose sinks, pulling more sugar out of circulation and improving glucose tolerance, which may help explain the protective association seen at altitude. The downstream potential is a new class of altitude-mimetic approaches that target erythrocyte metabolism as a glucose lever, separate from appetite suppression or classic diabetes pathways. For biohackers, it expands the metabolic toolkit and reinforces that oxygen environment and blood physiology matter more than we've given them credit for. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-red-blood-cells-sugar-high.html • Dietary Supplement Regulatory Uniformity Act and the Future of Supplement Access A proposed bill is aiming to stop states from layering extra rules on dietary supplements beyond federal law, creating one national standard instead of a patchwork of state-by-state restrictions. Industry groups are supporting it as a way to reduce confusion and compliance chaos, especially as some states explore age limits or special labeling requirements for certain supplement categories. The strategic implication for biohackers is that regulation shapes access. Uniformity can stabilize availability, but it also raises the stakes of federal decisions on controversial ingredients. This is one of those policy stories that quietly determines what stays on shelves, what disappears, and how much innovation survives in the supplement space. • Sources: – NutritionInsight: https://www.nutritioninsight.com/news/npa-crn-supplements-us-fda-legislation.html – Congressional release: https://langworthy.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-langworthy-introduces-dietary-supplement-regulatory-uniformity-act – NutraIngredients: https://www.nutraingredients.com/Article/2026/02/05/new-bill-aims-to-end-state-supplement-regulations/ All source links are provided for direct access to the original reporting and research.

What if the goal wasn't just to lose weight, but to achieve a balanced "weight health ecosystem"? In this episode, I speak with Ashley Koff about how ultra-processed foods, under-fueling, and disrupted hormones have shaped today's metabolic crisis—and why weight loss alone is the wrong goal. Ashley shares her deeply personal journey and her science-backed framework for understanding weight health, including a clear, honest conversation about GLP-1 medications and how to use them responsibly. Ashley Koff, RD, is the USA Today bestselling author of Your Best Shot (HarperOne) and founder of The Better Nutrition Program (BNP). With over twenty-five years of experience, Ashley's helped redefine how we approach sustainable, lasting weight health. In her new book, Your Best Shot, Ashley introduces weight-health hormones (GLP-1, GIP, CCK, PYY) and offers the first-ever system for assessing and optimizing these hormones, whether you're using GLP-1 medication or not. It's a game-changer for anyone who's felt stuck, blamed themselves, or been failed by traditional dieting. What you'll learn: (02:10) Why ultra-processed foods undermine satiety and metabolic health. (08:05) How dieting and under-fueling can damage digestion, hormones, and muscle. (13:40) What “weight health” means and why weight alone misses the real problem. (15:30) How GLP-1 and other incretin hormones regulate appetite, fat storage, bone, and metabolism. (17:45) Why enriched and ultra-processed foods leave the body under-resourced. (21:00) How GLP-1 medications work differently from the body's natural hormone signals. (24:10) Why fatigue, digestive issues, and muscle loss can happen on GLP-1s when dosing and nutrition aren't optimized. (30:20) Whether it's possible to come off GLP-1 medications and what sustainable success actually looks like. Love the podcast? Here's what to do: Subscribe to the podcast. Leave a review.

This episode covers: • Real Food Reset in U.S. Dietary Policy The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025–2030 put real food back at the center of U.S. nutrition policy and take a direct swing at ultra processed foods, added sugar, and sugary drinks. Dave breaks down why this matters beyond personal dieting: these guidelines influence school meals, SNAP and WIC, federal feeding programs, and they shape what eventually shows up on labels and in public institutions. He also shares how biohackers can use this shift as leverage to push for better food environments in schools, workplaces, and hospitals. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/07/kennedy-rollins-unveil-historic-reset-us-nutrition-policy-put-real-food-back-center-health • Drug Combo Extends Lifespan of Frail Old Mice by 73% A new aging study found that combining oxytocin with a compound called A5i extended the remaining lifespan of frail elderly male mice by 73%, while also improving function and tissue health. Dave explains why this is a big signal for the future of longevity medicine: stacking targeted interventions can outperform single compounds, especially when you start late in life. He also explains what to do with the idea right now: stop building random “everything stacks” and start thinking in phases, tracking outcomes, and waiting for real human combo data. -Source: https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/study-finds-drug-combo-could-slow-aging-and-increase-lifespan-by-73_23229/ • ChatGPT Health Turns Your Data Into a Health OS OpenAI launched ChatGPT Health, a dedicated health experience that lets you securely connect medical records and wellness apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal, so you can summarize visits, interpret labs, and prepare better questions for your doctor. Dave explains why this is a turning point for quantified self and protocol building: it reduces the friction of pulling data from five different places, and it makes pattern-finding accessible to nontechnical people. He also shares how to use it like a pro: clean inputs, smarter questions, and better doctor conversations. -Source: https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/ • Whole Milk Is Back in Schools The Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act restores whole and reduced-fat milk options in schools, aligning school nutrition rules with the updated dietary guidelines that no longer treat full-fat dairy like a default villain. Dave breaks down why this matters for child healthspan: satiety and nutrient density drive behavior, learning, and metabolic stability. He also explains why this is a real-world policy experiment worth watching across school districts, and how it can open the door for bigger institutional upgrades like better protein and fewer ultra processed items. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/14/whole-milk-back-president-trump-signs-whole-milk-healthy-kids-act • Tirzepatide Trial Targets Biological Age With Aging Clocks A registered clinical trial titled Tirzepatide to Slow Biological Aging is using multiple DNA methylation aging clocks as primary endpoints, along with functional metrics like grip strength and a 6-minute walk test. Dave explains why this is a big maturity step for longevity science: instead of assuming metabolic improvement equals slower aging, this study is measuring biological age directly, across multiple clocks, with performance outcomes. He also shares the practical lesson for biohackers: stop relying on one favorite metric and start thinking in panels, function, and durability of results. -Source: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07220473 All source links provided for direct access to the original research and reporting.
