Podcasts about Insulin

In this episode of the Red Delta Project Podcast & Live Q&A, Matt tears into one of the most seductive lies in modern fitness culture: the “hormone myth.” You know the story—fat loss is all about insulin, muscle gain is all about testosterone, and if you just follow this one magical diet or training trick, you'll “hack” your hormones and unlock perfect results. Matt breaks down why that ideology is scientifically incomplete, practically limiting, and usually just a clever way to make you work 10x harder for a fraction of the results.You'll learn why hormones like insulin, testosterone, and cortisol do matter—but are only one influence in a much bigger system that includes total calories, activity level, sleep, satisfaction, stress, and long-term habits. Matt also explains why obsessing over carb grams, heart-rate zones, or tiny hormone spikes misses the real game: consistently influencing the processes behind fat loss and muscle gain over weeks and months, not minutes and meals.In the Q&A, Matt tackles practical questions on partial range of motion vs full range, dips vs push-ups and pausing at the bottom, using ladders and “double tap” training for strength and hypertrophy, recovering faster when you're constantly sore, how isometrics can reveal (and fix) weaknesses, and why there is no single “best” exercise, program, or ideology—only what reliably moves your results forward with the least unnecessary stress.RDP Equipment and Gear: https://is.gd/5O5LLrAndrogen receptor study: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/physiology/articles/10.3389/fphys.2018.01373/full

Diabetes ist fast schon eine Art "Volkskrankheit". Neben den rund 9 Millionen bekannten Fällen gibt es Schätzungen, dass die Dunkelziffer bei weiteren 2 Millionen Menschen liegen könnte. Ein fundamentaler Unterschied ist dabei die Frage, ob man an Typ 1 oder Typ 2 erkrankt ist. Beide sorgen zwar für eine Insulin-Insuffizienz, aber, betont der Arzt und Journalist Lothar Zimmermann im Gespräch mit SWR Aktuell-Moderatorin Petra Waldvogel, dass Typ 1 Diabetes eine Auto-Immun-Erkrankung ist: "Das ist eine Fehlprogrammierung." Der Körper attackiere die Zellen der Bauchspeicheldrüse, welche Insulin zum Zucker-Abbau im Blut ausschütten. Beim Typ 2 dagegen könne die Bauchspeicheldrüse Insulin produzieren, aber - und deswegen gebe es häufig einen Zusammenhang mit Übergewicht - nicht in ausreichendem Maße für die Körpermasse.

BUFFALO, NY — November 13, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 17, Issue 10 of Aging-US on October 3, 2025, titled “The role of phenylalanine and tyrosine in longevity: a cohort and Mendelian randomization study.” In this study led by Jie V. Zhao, Yitang Sun, Junmeng Zhang, and Kaixiong Ye from the University of Hong Kong and the University of Georgia, researchers investigated whether two amino acids, phenylalanine and tyrosine, affect how long people live (lifespan). The results suggest that higher levels of tyrosine are linked to shorter life expectancy in men, pointing to potential sex-specific approaches to promoting longevity. Phenylalanine and tyrosine are amino acids involved in metabolism and brain function. Both are found in protein-rich foods and dietary supplements, but their long-term effects on aging are not well understood. Tyrosine, in particular, is a building block of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, which regulate mood and cognitive function, making it a molecule of interest in aging research. The study analyzed data from more than 270,000 individuals in the UK Biobank. Using both observational and genetic methods, the researchers examined the associations between blood levels of phenylalanine and tyrosine with overall mortality and predicted lifespan. Although both amino acids were initially linked to higher mortality risk, only tyrosine showed a consistent and potentially causal association with reduced life expectancy in men. Genetic analyses estimated that elevated tyrosine levels could shorten men's lifespan by nearly one year. No significant effect was observed in women. These findings remained consistent even after adjusting for related factors, including the role of phenylalanine. This suggests that tyrosine may independently influence aging. The researchers also observed that men tend to have higher tyrosine levels than women, which could partly explain the gender gap in lifespan. “Phenylalanine showed no association with lifespan in either men or women after controlling for tyrosine.” The exact mechanisms behind this effect are still under investigation. However, tyrosine's involvement in insulin resistance and the production of stress-related neurotransmitters may be contributing factors. Insulin resistance is associated with many age-related diseases, and hormone-related pathways influenced by tyrosine may differ between men and women, potentially explaining the sex-specific outcomes. Although tyrosine is commonly marketed as a supplement for enhancing focus and mental performance, the study raises concerns about its long-term impact on lifespan. While the researchers did not directly study tyrosine supplementation, their findings suggest that people with high tyrosine levels may benefit from dietary adjustments. Strategies such as protein restriction could help reduce tyrosine levels and support healthier aging. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings and explore whether diet and lifestyle changes can safely lower tyrosine levels to promote longevity.

Für viele ist das Frühstück der gemütlichste Moment des Tages - für andere dagegen völlig überflüssig. Doch was stimmt wirklich? Ist Frühstück die wichtigste Mahlzeit des Tages oder nur ein überholtes Ritual? In dieser Folge meines Podcasts DA GEHT NOCH WAS geht's um die Wahrheit hinter dem Frühstück. Wir schauen uns an, wie unterschiedlich unsere Körper ticken - denn der eigene Chronotyp bestimmt, wann und wie wir essen sollten. Was dem einen Energie schenkt, stresst den anderen nur. Gemeinsam reisen wir kulinarisch um die Welt: Wir frühstücken einen Sesamring in Griechenland, Miso-Suppe in Japan und Dosa in Indien. Welche Kultur startet am gesündesten in den Tag? Warum würden Ayurveda- und TCM-Ärzte bei europäischen Frühstücksgewohnheiten die Hände über dem Kopf zusammenschlagen? Ist Orangensaft am Morgen wirklich gesund? Wie kann schon das Frühstück helfen, zuckerfrei zu bleiben. Und warum ist dabei sogar die Temperatur entscheidend? Ich verrate es Euch. Eure Anastasia.

Bariatric surgery is a procedure used to manage obesity and obesity-related conditions. While studies have shown that bariatric surgery leads to significant weight loss, are there cases where it may be important to consider reversing the procedure? What would such cases look like? How effectively can bariatric surgery be reversed? To help explore those questions, host Aaron Lohr talks with Katherine Hazen, MD, a second-year endocrine fellow at the University of Rochester Medical Center. She and colleagues presented an abstract at ENDO 2025 titled, “Going Backwards as a Means of Moving Forward: Severe Hypoglycemia After Bariatric Surgery.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp106 — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast

In this special Q&A episode, Dr. Jason Fung joins TFM Coach Lisa and Community Mentor Patrice Michael to revisit The Cancer Code — five years after its release. Together, they explore how modern science is reframing cancer not as a disease of random genetic "bad luck," but as an evolutionary and metabolic condition deeply connected to insulin, diet, and lifestyle. Dr. Fung explains how hyperinsulinemia, obesity, and processed foods create fertile "soil" for cancer to grow — and how fasting and nutritional strategies can help restore metabolic balance. He also discusses the link between hormones and cancer risk, new non-radiation screening technologies, and how combining traditional treatments with metabolic interventions may shape the future of cancer care.

Starting in January, Californians will be able to buy discounted insulin from the state. That's thanks to CalRx, the state-run drug label created in 2020 that partners with manufacturers to slash generic prescription drug prices. CalRx already offers the opioid overdose reversal drug naloxone for about half the market price and other medications, including asthma inhalers, could be next. We'll talk about whether this effort could ease the prescription drug affordability crisis and bolster the supply of crucial medications.

You could be consuming the world's most dangerous carbohydrate without even realizing it. This hidden carb spikes your blood sugar, even more than actual sugar. Find out about the #1 most dangerous carb in this video. 0:00 Introduction: The #1 most dangerous carb in the world1:58 What is the worst carbohydrate? 2:20 What is starch? 5:20 Refined carbohydrates and chronic disease 6:08 Hidden sugar foods8:31 Food vs. ultra-processed foods It's no secret that ultra-processed carbs can take a serious toll on your health. Consuming this dangerous carbohydrate can have the following side effects:•Development of type 2 diabetes and a fatty liver•Insulin resistance•Visceral fat•Feeds pathogens in the gut •Inflammation•Increased LDL cholesterolProducts containing this ingredient can be marketed as zero sugar, even though it quickly turns to sugar in the blood. It's incredibly cheap, at about 20 cents per pound, and has no health benefits. It's used as a filler, and the average person consumes between 60 and 250 pounds per year.You can find this ingredient in gluten-free foods, baby formulas, baked goods, and other refined foods. Surprisingly, many athletes also consume this product. The carb we're talking about is industrial starch, such as modified food starch, corn starch, and maltodextrin. Starch is a string of glucose molecules. When a starch is modified in a lab, its bonds become very weak and fragile, causing it to turn into sugar very quickly in the body. Industrial starches are processed with chemicals such as sodium trimetaphosphate, vinyl acetate, bleach, and octenyl succinic anhydride. These chemicals are considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe), but they are self-regulated. Industrial starches are directly responsible for the complications associated with type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, brain plaquing, and fibrosis of the liver. People rarely consume starch alone. Most junk foods are composed of starches, seed oils, and sugar. Consuming starch with seed oils is a deadly combination! Hidden sugars are also consumed in much higher quantities than actual sugar. Food is defined as “that which is eaten to sustain life, to promote the growth and repair of tissues.” By this definition, starch is not food!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

The Truth About Cholesterol, LDL, and Plaque Regression with Dave Feldman | Lean Mass Hyper-Responder Research Explained What if everything you've been told about cholesterol and heart disease is incomplete — or even wrong? In this eye-opening episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Dave Feldman, engineer turned citizen scientist, founder of Own Your Labs and The Citizen Science Foundation, and the mind behind the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR) study and the groundbreaking Keto-CTA trial on plaque progression and regression. We unpack the latest findings from Dave's multi-platform coronary imaging study — comparing HeartFlow, QAngio, Cleerly, and expert readouts — to explore how some individuals with very high LDL cholesterol and low inflammation show no increase in plaque and, in some cases, true regression. You'll learn:

Bipolar disorder and depression affect tens of millions globally, long treated as strictly brain-based illnesses, yet both consistently show high rates of insulin resistance and metabolic disturbances A 2025 Nature Neuroscience study found that pancreatic insulin release and hippocampal activity are linked through a circadian feedback loop. This suggests bipolar mood shifts arise from disrupted metabolism, not brain chemistry alone Earlier research in 2022 showed lithium stabilizes mood partly by restoring insulin signaling, while a clinical trial found metformin improved both insulin sensitivity and psychiatric symptoms in treatment-resistant bipolar depression patients Insulin resistance is extremely widespread, with around 40% of Americans affected, driven by refined sugars, seed oils, stress, sleep loss, and environmental exposures that disrupt the body's natural energy regulation Supporting insulin sensitivity involves stepwise changes, replacing damaged fats and ultraprocessed foods, introducing gut-friendly carbs and fibers gradually, managing stress, improving sleep, and staying active to stabilize both metabolic and mental health

Today, we're tackling a question that comes up often in peptide, weight loss, and nutrition clinics: why does one person see great results with semaglutide, while another responds better to tirzepatide—or even retatrutide? If you want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page. You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going. https://pepties.com/partners/ All three peptides target the incretin system, but they act in slightly different ways—and those differences can dramatically affect outcomes. Let's start with the basics. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. It mimics the gut hormone GLP-1, which increases insulin when blood sugar is high (to help lower blood sugar), suppresses glucagon (which also decreases blood sugar), and slows gastric emptying. It also enhances satiety—so you feel full longer and eat less. Tirzepatide is a dual agonist, acting on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. GIP—glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide—also helps with insulin secretion to lower blood sugar, increases fat metabolism, and may reduce some of the GI side effects seen with GLP-1 alone. Retatrutide, the newest in the lineup, is a triple agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Retatrutide lightly activates the glucagon receptor while strongly activating GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which help regulate blood sugar and boost insulin secretion. This keeps blood sugar stable—or even improves it. Beyond blood sugar, glucagon also ramps up metabolism and calorie burning. By gently engaging glucagon receptors, retatrutide can increase energy expenditure and support fat loss without triggering large blood sugar spikes. So how do you decide which one might work best? Let's walk through common clinical situations. Patients with Hypothyroidism Let's talk about hypothyroidism. People with hypothyroidism often have slower metabolism, making weight loss more difficult even with a balanced diet. Low thyroid hormone levels slow calorie burning and energy use, so weight gain can occur more easily. For these patients, semaglutide is a reliable starting point—it helps regulate appetite and caloric intake. If progress plateaus, tirzepatide or retatrutide may provide an edge by boosting energy expenditure and fat oxidation, essentially "jump-starting" a slower metabolism. Patients with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) What about patients with PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)? Insulin resistance is common in PCOS, often leading to higher androgen levels (e.g., testosterone) and symptoms like irregular periods, acne, and excess hair growth. Hormonal changes also affect appetite-regulating hormones, increasing hunger and cravings. Both GLP-1 and dual agonists have proven effective in managing metabolic and reproductive aspects of PCOS. Typically, we start with semaglutide to improve weight, insulin sensitivity, androgen levels, and menstrual regularity. After a few months, if weight loss plateaus or cravings remain high, we may switch to tirzepatide. The added GIP activity enhances fat metabolism, insulin control, and may further support hormone regulation and ovulation. The key is starting with what's well-studied and tolerated, then stepping up if additional metabolic or reproductive support is needed. Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) The next medical condition I'd like to talk about is type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Weight gain in T2DM often stems from insulin resistance. Cells don't respond effectively to insulin, prompting the pancreas to relelase more. High insulin levels encourage fat storage, particularly around the abdomen, while elevated blood sugar can increase hunger and cravings. Some diabetes medications, like insulin or sulfonylureas (e.g., glipizide or glyburide), can also contribute to weight gain. All three drugs lower blood sugar and promote weight loss, but tirzepatide currently shows the strongest combined A1c reduction (average blood sugar over the past 2 to 3 months) and weight loss. GIP and GLP-1 work together to enhance insulin response more effectively than GLP-1 alone. Retatrutide is in phase 3 trials, with potential FDA approval as early as 2027. Its glucagon receptor activity may offer additional glucose regulation and energy expenditure benefits. Patients with >15% Weight Loss Goals Okay, let's talk about weight loss goals and how this ties into the decision process for choosing a weight loss medication. For those patients looking to lose more than 15% of their total body weight, tirzepatide or retatrutide are likely to deliver greater results. Clinical data show semaglutide can achieve up to 15% total weight loss while tirzepatide can achieve up to 22% and retatrutide up to 24%. That said, semaglutide remains a highly effective option for weight loss. However, if progress begins to plateau, transitioning to a dual or triple agonist may help restart weight loss and push past that plateau. Pre- and Postmenopausal Women What about peri- and postmenopausal patients? Hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause slow metabolism and can increase cravings. Declining estrogen promotes abdominal fat storage and affects appetite-regulating hormones. Semaglutide helps with appetite control and gradual fat loss, while tirzepatide's GIP activation can further support fat metabolism when estrogen levels drop. Patients with Heart Disease or High Cholesterol The last group of patients I'd like to discuss is patients with heart disease (e.g., heart failure, stroke, heart attack, or even atherosclerosis) or people with high cholesterol. Semaglutide has the strongest cardiovascular outcomes data, reducing major adverse cardiac events by 20% and improving LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and blood pressure. Tirzepatide shows promise for heart and lipid benefits, but those trials are still ongoing. For patients with prior heart attack, stroke, or severe coronary artery disease, semaglutide remains the safest evidence-backed starting point—unless intolerable side effects or weight loss resistance occur. Tolerability Now I want to switch gears a bit and talk about side effects and tolerablity of these peptides. Some patients experience stomach-related side effects like nausea, bloating, or acid reflux on semaglutide. Generally, tirzepatide tends to cause fewer GI side effects, likely due to GIP balancing GLP-1 activity in the gut. So patients struggling with nausea or other stomach-related side effects may find tirzepatide more tolerable. Just something to keep in mind. Individualizing Therapy Lastly, I want to highlight the importance of individualizing weight loss peptide treatments. There's no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to these therapies. Clinicians should carefully consider a patient's goals, medical history, current medications, and tolerance before choosing the most appropriate option. Setting realistic expectations from the start is essential. It's important to remember that everyone's body responds differently because of factors like hormones, genetics, metabolism, gut microbiome balance, and lifestyle habits. These differences influence how effectively a peptide therapy works and how well it's tolerated. That's why ongoing monitoring and follow-up are such an important part of the process. Providers track progress, adjust dosing when needed, and switch medications if weight loss plateaus or side effects occur. The goal isn't just to lose weight quickly—it's to create a safe, sustainable plan that supports long-term metabolic health and helps patients feel their best.

Alison Smart, joins us with more. Alison Smart: Imagine being diagnosed with a life-threatening condition and finding a medication that works well for you, with minimal side effects — only to have it suddenly discontinued, leaving limited alternatives that don't meet your needs. This is the reality for many people with diabetes today. Levemir, an insulin valued for its consistency and flexibility -- especially for pregnant women and children -- is no longer available in the United States. The Alliance to Protect Insulin Choice is dedicated to ensuring patients retain access to the insulin they need. We are striving to bring a generic version of Levemir to market, advocate for faster FDA approval, and ensure broader access for patients nationwide. With more support, a company is ready to produce it and make this life-saving option widely available. We're encouraging Utah leaders and investors to support these efforts. It's about protecting choice, safeguarding health, and preserving lives. To learn more visit AlliancetoProtectInsulinChoice.org. Derek Miller: The Alliance to Protect Insulin Choice empowers Utah families and communities by advocating for patients' rights, raising awareness about insulin access, and giving people a voice in healthcare decisions.

You can be insulin resistant for 15-20 years before you develop diabetes!Chronic sugar consumption can lead to insulin resistance, but seed oils can be equally problematic. Seed oils cause damage to the cell membranes (which contain insulin receptors) and damage to the mitochondria.There is evidence that unsaturated fatty acids can reduce the risk of diabetes, but this is not the case with rancid, oxidized seed oils. These highly refined seed oils are full of toxic byproducts such as aldehydes, which create irreversible damage in the insulin receptor. The average person consumes 25%-30% of their calories from seed oils.You can have high insulin and normal blood sugar for many years. Over time, this overworks the pancreas, causing the beta cells that produce insulin to become overworked and eventually stop producing insulin, leaving the body without a mechanism to regulate blood sugar levels. Normal blood sugar should be around 80, which is equivalent to a single teaspoon of sugar in the blood, even though the average person consumes 81 to 131 teaspoons of sugar every day!If you have diabetes or you want to avoid it, avoid these foods:1.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Gil Blander sits down with Florence Comite, MD, physician-scientist and founder of the Comite Center for Precision Medicine & Healthy Longevity. They explore why a one-size-fits-all approach to longevity falls short and how personalized data, from biomarkers to genetics, can spot early signs of disease before symptoms appear.Florence explains her “Nof1” method, which uses deep testing, wearables, and personal history to craft precise health plans. She highlights how sleep, more than exercise or diet, shapes long-term health but remains hard for most people to optimize. Using real-world examples, Florence shows why tracking markers like insulin and hormones matter, and why most people need support to turn health knowledge into action.The conversation covers the limits of standard medical care, the value of knowing your family history, and how even the best routines must adapt over time. Florence urges listeners to get curious about their own data and take steps—however small—toward better health.Guest-at-a-Glance 

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll explore how luteinizing hormone (LH) plays a pivotal role in ovulation, and how its interaction with insulin can create hormonal chaos in PCOS. LH is the hormone responsible for triggering ovulation, but when it becomes imbalanced, cycles can become irregular or even anovulatory. This discussion sheds light on why LH may be elevated and how this elevation disrupts ovulation, especially when paired with high testosterone levels.How Cycle Chaos Unfolds: Elevated LH and OvulationInsulin resistance, common in PCOS, contributes to elevated testosterone and disrupts LH levels. Even without insulin resistance, women with PCOS may experience high insulin levels due to dietary habits. This elevation prompts the ovaries to produce more testosterone, which in turn increases LH. The result? Disrupted ovulation, missed LH surges, and cycles that are difficult to interpret.When LH levels are chronically elevated, the body misses the distinct surge that's necessary for ovulation to occur. You'll discover how this prevents egg release, contributes to cystic ovaries, and leads to inconsistent or missed periods. Practical Tools to Lower Insulin and Restore OvulationYou'll learn practical strategies for lowering insulin and restoring hormone balance. This includes optimizing nutrition and strategic eating patterns to support better glucose regulation and lower daily insulin loads.For deeper insight into how your body handles food and stress, a CGM can be a powerful tool. In this episode, you'll learn how to use a CGM to observe patterns, make small dietary changes, and experiment with meal timing and movement to lower insulin responses and improve hormone balance.Exercise is another key lifestyle tool for improving insulin sensitivity. You'll hear how Zone 2 exercise and strength training help your body use insulin more efficiently. These simple habits can dramatically reduce post-meal glucose spikes and improve overall hormonal function.Stress is a major hormone disruptor. You'll discover how elevated cortisol increases insulin, promotes fat storage, and throws off hormonal rhythms, including LH and ovulation. This episode covers how daily stress management practices are essential to support hormonal healing.Supporting Ovulation with SupplementsOnce foundational root causes are addressed, well selected supplements can further support insulin sensitivity and ovulation. This episode explains when and how to incorporate these supplements and provides resources for trusted product recommendations.If you've struggled to interpret LH tests, manage irregular ovulation, or understand the hidden factors behind PCOS symptoms, this episode breaks it down in a clear, practical way. You'll leave with an understanding of how insulin impacts LH and what daily strategies, like movement, food timing, and supplements, can help regulate this delicate hormonal balance.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereGet the PCOS Supplement Guide for trusted product recommendations and discounts. Let's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-169

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/advances-in-type-1-diabetes-science-and-tech/ This article is part of “Innovations In: Type 1 Diabetes,” an editorially independent special report that was produced with financial support from Vertex. XX More evidence linking COVID 19 to type 1 diabetes.. but still exactly why is a mystery. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an unexpected increase in the number of cases of type 1 diabetes in Sweden, particularly among children under 5 and young adult men. The infection accelerated the onset of diabetes among children between the ages of 5 and 9. The researchers looked at data from a 17-year period on the incidence of type 1 diabetes among all people under the age of 30 in Sweden. In addition, they compared the risk of developing diabetes among 720,000 individuals with positive COVID-19 tests against a control group of 3.5 million people. The findings are published in the journal Diabetologia. The number of diabetes cases increased by 12% in 2021 and 9% in 2022 compared with previous years. In 2023, the number of cases was back to a normal level. Despite this, the researchers cannot distinguish a clear connection between COVID-19 infection and diabetes, except for children between 5 and 9 years old. They had an increased risk of type 1 diabetes about one month after a COVID-19 infection even though their total risk did not increase. "However, it's clear that the COVID-19 vaccine can be ruled out as a cause of the increase in diabetes cases. The recommendation for the age group where we saw the strongest increase was not to get vaccinated. In addition, other studies on adults have shown that vaccination reduces the risk of developing type 1 diabetes after a COVID infection." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-diabetes-young-people-pandemic.html XX A new gene therapy approach aimed at protecting people with type 1 diabetes from developing diabetic kidney disease—a serious and common complication of the condition, has shown promising results in a University of Bristol study. Findings from this new study, published in Molecular Therapy, demonstrated a 64% reduction in a damage indicator for kidney disease, paving the way for a potential new treatment. The study, explored the potential of delivering a protein called VEGF-C directly into kidney cells. Previous studies have shown VEGFC could protect against kidney disease as it helps keep blood vessels in the kidney filter healthy, repairing early signs of diabetes-related kidney damage. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-gene-therapy-kidney-disease-diabetes.html XX The FDA has agreed to consider Afrezza inhaled insulin for children and teens. The company said in August that it submitted a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Afrezza in the pediatric population and it's been assigned a decision deadline date of the end of May, 2026. Afrezza first recieved FDA approval for adults (age 18 and up) in June 2014 https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/fda-accepts-application-mannkind-inhaled-insulin-kids/ Update on inhaled insulin for kids.. in the open-label, randomized, phase 3 INHALE-1 clinical trial Afrezza demonstrated safe and effective replacement for rapid-acting meal insulin in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D and demonstrates comparable glycemic control to injected rapid-acting insulin. The INHALE-1 clinical trial assessed the safety and efficacy of Afrezza among children and adolescents with T1D, including a total of 230 patients aged 4 to 17 years. Researchers used basal injected insulin and randomly assigned inhaled insulin or rapid-acting analogue for meals, evaluating the change in hemoglobin A1c levels at 26 weeks. After completing 26 weeks of randomly assigned treatment with either Afrezza or rapid-acting insulin injections combined with basal insulin, participants continued receiving the inhaled insulin until week 52 for an extension phase to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Afrezza with continued use.1,2 https://www.pharmacytimes.com/view/inhaled-insulin-demonstrates-comparable-safety-lung-function-and-efficacy-to-injectable-insulin-in-type-1-diabetes XX Eli Lilly released the results of two new Phase 3 trials of an experimental GLP-1 pill that the company says could become a “foundational treatment” for type 2 diabetes. The Indianapolis-based drugmaker plans to submit global regulatory applications for orforglipron in the treatment of type 2 diabetes next year. The company said it will seek approval of the drug as an obesity medication by the end of 2025. Lilly is trying to build on the success of its Mounjaro/Zepbound franchise by offering patients a pill instead of an injection. But the company is trailing behind rival Novo Nordisk in developing an oral alternative, and data released so far has raised some skepticism among investors. A study released in August showed that orforglipron could help patients lose an average of about 12% of their body weight. Wall Street had been expecting more; Lilly's injectable drug Zepbound produced weight loss of as much as 21%, and Novo Nordisk has achieved 15% weight loss percentages for both oral and injectable versions of its Wegovy medication.   https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/eli-lillys-orforglipron-bests-farxiga-padding-oral-glp-1-case-pair-phase-3-diabetes-wins   XX XX UF Health Cancer Center researchers have found a surprising culprit behind common health problems such as obesity, diabetes and fatty liver disease: silent genetic glitches in the blood system that occur naturally as people age. The findings, published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, mean that in the future, simple blood tests could be developed to identify people most at risk early on, helping prevent chronic illnesses and cancer through strategies like diet or lifestyle changes. As people age, stem cells in the bone marrow that produce blood cells gradually accumulate mutations in their DNA. Most mutations don't cause any issues, but sometimes blood stem cells with a mutation can start crowding out their peers. Called clonal hematopoiesis, this condition affects about 10% of older people and is associated with an increased risk of blood cancers like leukemia. It's also linked to a higher risk of obesity and diabetes. But the prevailing thinking was that obesity and related conditions promoted blood cell changes, not the other way around. The new study reverses that. The implications could be far-reaching, particularly as obesity has now overtaken smoking as the most significant and preventable risk factor for cancer. The team is studying how the mutations drive disease. Next, they plan to test how drugs like those commonly used to treat diabetes and new popular weight loss drugs might help reverse or prevent diseases caused by blood cell changes. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-hidden-blood-mutations-obesity-diabetes.html XX A new ultra rapid insulin continues to move forward. A phase 3 clinical trial of BioChaperone Lispro (liss-pro) conducted in China found it safe and effective compared with Humalog along with a significant reduction of the rise of blood glucose after a test meal.     These results complete and confirm the positive outcomes previously obtained with THDB0206 injection in people with Type 2 Diabetes It combines Adocia's proprietary BioChaperone® technology with insulin lispro, the active ingredient in the standard of care, Humalog® (Eli Lilly).   This innovative formulation acts significantly faster https://pharmatimes.com/news/ultra-rapid-insulin-shows-promise-in-phase-3-trial-for-type-1-diabetes/   Poor blood sugar control in adolescent patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) may be associated with a higher risk of neuropathy in adulthood, according to recent research from the University of Michigan.1 The study included children diagnosed with T1D between 1990-1992 who were recruited into the Cognition and Longitudinal Assessment of Risk Factors over 30 Years cohort study in Australia. Investigators collected HbA1c from medical records, and microvascular complications were assessed through self-reports, clinical screenings, retinal photographs, and urinary albumin-creatinine testing.3   A total of 30 children were recruited from the original cohort with a mean diagnosis age of 2.9 years. After an average of 29.7 years (standard deviation [SD]: 3.9 years), 33% of participants (n = 13) developed neuropathy, 63% (n = 19) developed diabetes-related eye disease, and 10% (n = 3) developed neuropathy.3 Mean HbA1c estimates during adolescence (9% [74.9 mmol/mol]; 95% CI, 8.6-9.3 [70.5-78.1]) were substantially higher than childhood (8.2% [66.1 mmol/mol]; 95% CI, 7.8-8.5 [61.7-69.4]; P

Prostate enlargement has become increasingly common in men over 50. In this video, I'll share the best diet for prostate health and the foods you should avoid to prevent or reverse an enlarged prostate. A healthy prostate should be the size of a walnut, but an enlarged prostate can grow to the size of an orange! An enlarged prostate pushes against the bladder, reducing its capacity, which is why one of the most common symptoms of an enlarged prostate is frequent urination at night.One of the most common contributors to an enlarged prostate is insulin resistance. Too much insulin can trigger the hormone IGF-1, which can increase the size of the prostate. Insulin is triggered by the consumption of carbohydrates and frequent eating.The prostate has a lot of vitamin D receptors. Vitamin D regulates the growth of the prostate and helps prevent excessive growth. To increase your vitamin D, get more sun exposure or take at least 20,000 IU of vitamin D daily along with 350 mg of magnesium glycinate.As testosterone decreases, that can sometimes leave you with too much estrogen. DIM is an excellent remedy for hormonal imbalances related to estrogen.One of the most common contributors to an enlarged prostate is insulin resistance. Too much insulin can trigger the hormone IGF-1, which can increase the size of the prostate. Insulin is triggered by the consumption of carbohydrates and frequent eating.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
