Published report: _President Trump attacked global immigration and efforts to fight climate change during an address to the United Nations, claiming they were among the world's top threats to Western civilization. In an hour-long speech filled with grievances about ongoing wars, windmills and malfunctioning escalators, it was Trump's attacks against what he called a “double-tailed monster” that rang loudest in the ornate General Assembly room. “Immigration and the high cost of so-called green, renewable energy is destroying a large part of the free world and a large part of our planet,” he said. “Countries that cherish freedom are fading fast because of their policies on these two subjects. Both immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe.” “I'm telling you that if you don't get away from the ‘green energy' scam, your country is going to fail. If you don't stop people that you've never seen before that you have nothing in common with, your country is going to fail.” _ President Donald Trump, speech delivered at the United Nations, September 23, 2025 America's eyes are focused on state-wide elections in New Jersey and Virginia, with governors' races and the legislatures which will determine key policies including economic and social issues.

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

Research shows sugary drinks and alcohol intake are strongly linked to faster hair loss, with younger men experiencing baldness patterns that typically appear a decade earlier A systematic review covering over 61,000 participants confirmed low vitamin D and iron levels consistently worsen hair loss, highlighting how nutrient deficiencies directly weaken follicles Sugary drinks spike insulin and fuel inflammation, narrowing scalp blood vessels and starving follicles of oxygen and nutrients, which accelerates thinning and weakens regrowth cycles Men with male pattern baldness consumed nearly twice as many sugary drinks weekly compared to men without hair loss, proving diet is a visible risk factor Cutting sugary beverages, eliminating alcohol, restoring vitamin D through safe sun, and boosting iron intake with nutrient-rich foods are direct steps to protect hair and overall health

What if you could reverse type 2 diabetes, drop 62 pounds collectively, and get off multiple medications — naturally? In this powerful episode, I sit down with Brent and Tonya Vineyard, a couple who has experienced absolutely life-changing results using the Unicity Feel Great System. After years of battling chronic health issues — including diabetes, migraines, acid reflux, restless legs, and dangerously high triglycerides — they decided to try a natural, two-step supplement system… and everything changed.

Please visit answersincme.com/AVD860 to participate, download slides and supporting materials, complete the post test, and obtain credit. In this activity, three experts in diabetes discuss approved and emerging once-weekly insulin analogs. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Identify patients with T2D who may benefit from basal insulin therapy, including those suited for once-weekly formulations; Assess the clinical data of approved and emerging once-weekly basal insulin analogs; Evaluate opportunities and challenges associated with once-weekly basal insulin therapy.

In this episode of the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we focus on three key hormones that can significantly impact metabolism: insulin, leptin, and cortisol. Each of these hormones plays an essential role in regulating energy, hunger, and stress, and when imbalances occur, they may be the underlying cause of a metabolic stall or plateau. The conversation explores how insulin resistance can block fat burn, how leptin resistance can interfere with satiety signals, and how cortisol dysregulation can drive cravings and fat storage. We discuss practical strategies for identifying when these hormones are out of balance, along with food-as-medicine approaches, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation to help restore harmony and support optimal metabolic function.

In Episode 61, we learned that blood sugar dysregulation is a compounding factor at the root of nearly every metabolic disease or condition. While the science behind that statement can get complicated, balancing blood sugar doesn't have to be. In this “Quick Tips” episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Ashley Lawrence, NTP—your “Blood Sugar Bestie”— returns to share her top five blood sugar tips you can start using today. Ashley is the founder of Magic and Wellness and a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner passionate about helping women finally crack the code on their energy, mood, and hormones by addressing blood sugar first. Her approach blends science, strategy, and sparkle—making healthy habits not only doable but actually fun. In this episode: Protein-rich, savory breakfasts that stabilize energy, reduce cravings, and stop the 2:30 slump Why you should avoid eating naked carbs—and how to pair carbs with protein, fat, or fiber for steady glucose Simple movement after meals like squats and pushups during bathroom breaks or 15-minute power walks after meals How stress and poor sleep drive insulin resistance, plus practical hacks to calm cortisol and get better rest Why front-loading carbs earlier in the day improves sleep, energy, and overall metabolic health They also get real about practical swaps—like leftovers for breakfast, smarter chip and chocolate choices, and even adding butter or flax to balance out carbs. Remember, it's not about perfection; it's about small, consistent upgrades that add up to lasting freedom. If you've ever wondered how to fix fatigue, cravings, mood swings, or PCOS symptoms at their root, these simple steps are where to start for practical, real-life strategies to balance your blood sugar without the overwhelm.

This FREE guide shows you how: https://drbrg.co/470t2J6The gallbladder is a small sac that sits below the liver with the following important functions:•Bile storage and concentration•Regulation of bile release •Cholesterol regulation•Antimicrobial functions•Hunger and blood sugar control•Detox support •Helps trigger the antioxidant glutathione Bile is vital for the breakdown of fats, so you can absorb fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D, K1, K2, and omega-3 fatty acids. Bile can also help thyroid hormones work more efficiently. Gallbladder removal surgery is often the result of gallbladder stones. Gallstones come from a lack of bile. People are often told the following lies and convinced into gallbladder removal surgery:•There are no other options.•A diseased gallbladder causes gallstones.•You can't prevent gallstones with diet.•Gallbladder removal does not cause complications.•Post-cholecystectomy is controversial.•Gallstones that result from pregnancy require gallbladder removal surgery. Gallstones can be caused by high levels of estrogen, being overweight, and diabetes, but one of the biggest gallbladder stone causes is high insulin!Insulin resistance resulting from chronically high insulin levels can prevent the liver from producing adequate bile and weaken the gallbladder. A low-carb diet and intermittent fasting are the best solutions for gallbladder stones. Your microbes also produce bile, so anything that destroys them can affect bile. Antibiotics and low-fat, low-cholesterol diets increase the risk for gallstones.Fatty fish has the most potent effect on bile production. You can also increase bile with cholesterol foods such as butter, eggs, shellfish, seafood, and liver. Egg yolks and liver are high in choline, a key nutrient vital for bile production. Bitter greens, arugula, radish, celery, and sauerkraut can help make additional bile salts.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

When your body begins to lose its ability to respond to insulin effectively, this condition is known as insulin resistance. It places extra pressure on the beta cells of the pancreas, which are responsible for keeping blood sugar levels between 70 to 140 mg/dL. In a healthy individual, even after consuming something sweet—for example, mango juice—blood sugar gets automatically controlled through the quick response of beta cells, which release extra insulin to restore normal glucose levels. However, frequent consumption of high-calorie, high-sugar, or fatty foods significantly increases the workload on these beta cells. Over time, this constant strain can impair their function, disrupt the body's glucose regulation, and eventually lead to diabetes. Importantly, diabetes is not just a “sugar problem”—it is also a vascular disease. It damages both large and small blood vessels throughout the body: - Large vessel complications include heart attacks (coronary artery disease), strokes (cerebrovascular disease), and leg artery blockages (peripheral artery disease), which can lead to gangrene. - Small vessel complications affect the eyes (diabetic retinopathy), kidneys (diabetic nephropathy), and nerves (diabetic neuropathy), damaging delicate blood vessels of these target organs and impairing vital filtering mechanisms.   Thus, diabetes is a chronic, systemic condition that impacts the entire vascular system and requires a comprehensive approach for prevention and management.

In today's episode, I dive into the rising phenomenon of so-called “Ozempic pregnancies” and uncover what's really happening behind the headlines. GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy were originally developed for type 2 diabetes, but are now being used by many women with PCOS, insulin resistance, or weight challenges to support fertility. I'll break down how these medications work, why they may help some women conceive, and the important risks and limitations you need to know. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, we'll explore why simply taking a drug isn't enough to address the root cause, and how digestive health, spleen qi, and lifestyle habits hold the key to lasting fertility and hormone balance. I'll also share practical strategies you can start today, like mindful eating, warming your digestive fire, and syncing with your circadian rhythm, that can naturally support your fertility journey. Key Takeaways:  GLP-1 medications like Ozempic can temporarily improve insulin sensitivity but don't resolve the root causes of infertility. Insulin resistance impacts ovulation, egg quality, and hormone balance, especially in women with PCOS. TCM approaches fertility by strengthening the digestive system and restoring balance, rather than suppressing symptoms. Mindful eating, warm digestion-supporting practices, and aligning meals with the body's circadian rhythm are powerful fertility boosters. Sustainable lifestyle changes are essential for lasting fertility health, beyond short-term medication use. Links mentioned:

As we move from summer to fall, and temperatures at night start to cool, subtle changes begin to occur in our horses. Shorter days trigger powerful hormonal shifts, often before we even notice. Those shifts play an essential role in the health of our horses- especially those with metabolic conditions.Hormone Shifts and MetabolismSeasonal hormone shifts influence how horses process sugar, maintain muscle, and manage inflammation. In fall, ACTH levels naturally rise, increasing cortisol to drive fat storage and coat growth in preparation for winter. When those hormones remain elevated for too long, however, problems like delayed shedding, thick coats, sweating, muscle loss, inflammation, and a higher risk of laminitis may emerge.Fall as a High-Risk SeasonFar more horses tend to experience metabolic flare-ups in the fall as it brings a dangerous mix of hormonal shifts, fat storage, and higher pasture sugar levels, all of which raise the risk for equine metabolic syndrome and PPID. As horses naturally conserve energy and build fat reserves before winter, insulin resistance also tends to worsen.Testing and DiagnosisA single test showing high ACTH in fall is not enough to diagnose PPID. As ACTH naturally rises seasonally, it is essential to use multiple test results, and get a complete health profile before deciding on lifelong medication. Insulin, Inflammation, and WeightInsulin is fundamentally a fat-storage hormone. If it is high, horses cannot lose weight. Chronic inflammation from laminitis or hoof pathologies drives insulin even higher, and elevated cortisol keeps blood sugar high, locking horses into a state of fat storage. That combination often causes gain weight and soreness in the fall.Diet and Forage ManagementCareful forage management is the foundation of supporting metabolic horses. Prioritize low-sugar hay and limit access to rich pasture, especially during high-risk seasons, like fall. Slow feeders, soaking hay, and controlled turnout can all help regulate sugar intake. Consistency in diet not only stabilizes insulin and energy levels but also reduces the risk of flare-ups.Lifestyle and StressStress management is as important as diet. Horses need freedom to move, regular forage, and companionship to regulate their cortisol levels and maintain metabolic balance. Stalled or isolated horses, or horses with long gaps between feedings suffer higher stress levels, which compounds hormone problems, and no supplement can overcome the damage caused by chronic stress and inappropriate living conditions.Long-Term ManagementConsistency is essential. Progress may seem slow at times, but steady attention to low-sugar forage, regular exercise, and stress reduction leads to lasting improvements. Expect seasonal setbacks, but they will be temporary. Over time, consistent care helps horses rebuild their health and resilience.Hormonal Considerations in MaresMares can be susceptible to seasonal hormonal shifts. Changes in daylight and hormone levels often affect their cycles, behavior, and comfort. For mares with metabolic issues, those fluctuations may add another layer of stress, making careful monitoring and consistent management even more essential.Links and resources:Connect with Elisha Edwards on her website Join my email list to be notified about new podcast releases and upcoming webinars.Free Webinar Masterclass:

Angela and special guest Lara Briden examine the importance of key metabolic nutrients that are often missing from modern diets, particularly for women in perimenopause.  They discuss the top five nutrients—magnesium, taurine, choline, inositol, and glycine—that can help calm the nervous system, improve energy, and enhance metabolic health, and highlight how these supplements can support insulin sensitivity and overall well-being, especially during hormonal changes KEY TAKEAWAYS: Role of Magnesium and Taurine: Both magnesium and taurine are effective for their ability to support healthy mitochondria, calm the nervous system, and improve insulin sensitivity Importance of Choline: Choline is identified as a crucial nutrient, particularly for women experiencing menopause, as oestrogen loss can impair the body's ability to produce choline Inositol for Insulin Sensitivity: Inositol is noted for its effectiveness in improving insulin sensitivity, especially for those with conditions like PCOS and during perimenopause Holistic Approach to Perimenopause: Women in perimenopause do not have to accept symptoms like fatigue and weight gain as normal. A combination of dietary changes, nutrient supplementation, and lifestyle adjustments can help mitigate these issues TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:00:49] Magnesium and taurine benefits. [00:03:25] Glycine for sleep and detox. [00:07:10] Insulin resistance in perimenopause.

What if the first signs of insulin resistance have nothing to do with glucose?In this episode of ReInvent Healthcare, Dr. Ritamarie uncovers the hidden metabolic dialogue between the liver and pancreas. It's a connection that begins to break down long before glucose or A1C raise red flags. Beneath the surface of “normal labs” lies a growing storm: insulin buildup, glucagon misfires, and early beta-cell stress that quietly unravel metabolic balance.If you're only testing blood sugar, you're missing the real story.Discover the overlooked markers that reveal the dysfunction most practitioners miss. This episode will change the way you view insulin resistance and give you the tools to catch it before the spiral begins.What's Inside This Episode?What most practitioners miss by focusing only on glucose, A1C, or symptomsHow to spot early-stage metabolic collapse while there's still time to reverse itWhy blood sugar may be the last thing to change and what starts breaking down long beforeThe overlooked conversation between two metabolic powerhouses and what happens when it goes quietHow hidden hormone signals spark a chain reaction of dysfunction no one's talking aboutThe surprising reason some clients wake up with high glucose even on a “perfect” dietClues your clients are missing the mark, not because of willpower, but because of broken feedback loopsResources and Links:Download our FREE Glucagon, Insulin, and Blood Sugar chart.

Methylene Blue is a powerful mitochondrial enhancer and energy booster with wide-ranging benefits when used at the correct dose. Dr. Scott Sherr explores the science and therapeutic potential of Methylene Blue, including its effects on mitochondrial function, cellular energy production, neuroprotection, cognitive performance, and insulin resistance. This discussion also covers the history of Methylene Blue, its mechanism of action at the cellular level, dosage strategies, and practical applications for health optimization and longevity.In this conversation, Dr. Scott Sherr discusses the multifaceted benefits of methylene blue, particularly its role in enhancing mitochondrial health and its implications for mental health. He explains how mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to various mental health disorders and emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying issues such as GABA deficiency. The discussion also covers the use of methylene blue in hypoxic conditions, its potential for weight loss support, and the necessary precautions when using it, especially in conjunction with other medications. Additionally, the conversation touches on the benefits of red light therapy for mitochondrial function and the significance of quality sourcing for supplements.Takeaways- Methylene Blue enhances mitochondrial function and detoxification.- 94% of adults experience some form of mitochondrial dysfunction.- Insulin resistance is a major contributor to mitochondrial dysfunction.- Methylene Blue can bypass dysfunctional mitochondrial complexes.- The compound has historical significance as an anti-infective agent.- Methylene Blue acts as a redox molecule, supporting energy production and detoxification.- It can help recycle NAD, enhancing its effectiveness in the body.- Low doses of Methylene Blue are recommended for optimal benefits.- The compound has applications in cognitive enhancement and mental health.- A holistic approach to health is essential alongside Methylene Blue use. Methylene blue can reduce exercise-induced fatigue and inflammation.- Mitochondrial dysfunction is a key factor in mental health disorders.- Higher doses of methylene blue can enhance neurotransmitter production.- Methylene blue can help with low oxygen states during travel.- It is important to monitor doses of methylene blue, especially with SSRIs.- Methylene blue can support fat loss indirectly by improving mitochondrial efficiency.- Red light therapy can enhance mitochondrial function and energy production.- GABA deficiency can lead to anxiety and depression.- Diet and lifestyle changes can improve GABA levels and overall mental health.- Quality and source of methylene blue are crucial for safety and efficacy.

Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Bart Kay—former professor of health sciences turned “nutrition science watchdog”—to unpack a big, practical question for people in recovery from ultra-processed food use: If sugar needs to go, what about other carbs? And where does dietary fat fit in? We explore Dr. Kay's perspective on the Randle (Randall) cycle, insulin resistance, mixed macro diets, seed oils, ketogenic/carnivore patterns, and real-world considerations for folks with sugar/UPF addiction who struggle to “moderate.” We also discuss staged change (don't flip your diet overnight), what “abstainer vs. moderator” can mean in food recovery, and how to keep any nutrition experiment aligned with your health team and your recovery plan. What we cover The “Randle cycle,” plain-English: why mixing higher carbs and higher fats may worsen metabolic friction, and why choosing one dominant fuel is central to Dr. Kay's model. Insulin resistance re-framed: why Dr. Kay views it as a protective cellular response (his position) and how that informs low-carb/carnivore advocacy. Carbs in recovery: “quit sugar” vs. “how low is low?”—Dr. Kay's thresholds (e.g., ≤50 g/day unlikely to cause problems in his view) and why many with UPF addiction do better with abstinence than moderation. Fats & satiety: why dietary fat often increases fullness cues; practical guardrails; “can you eat too much fat or protein?” Seed oils: Dr. Kay's strong critique of industrial seed oils and his inflammation concerns. Cholesterol worries on low-carb/carnivore: why lipid numbers may rise and how Dr. Kay interprets A1C and lipid changes (controversial; see note below). GLP-1s, metformin & meds: Dr. Kay's take on drug mechanisms vs. root-cause nutrition changes. Change management: why he recommends a 4–6 week ramp instead of an overnight switch to very low-carb/carnivore; supporting thyroid, energy, and the microbiome while you transition. Recovery lens: abstainer vs. moderator, harm-reduction steps when “only food will regulate,” and building a plan that supports mental health and addiction recovery. Key takeaways Abstinence can be a kindness. If you're a “can't moderate sugar” person, treating sugar/UPFs as an abstinence-worthy trigger can protect your recovery. Don't crash-diet your microbiome. If you're experimenting with lower-carb or carnivore, step down over 4–6 weeks with plenty of electrolytes, hydration, and support. Pick a lane with macros. In Dr. Kay's model, mixing higher carbs with higher fats is the most metabolically problematic; choosing one dominant fuel source may reduce friction. Numbers are data, not destiny. Lipids and A1C can shift on low-carb—interpret changes with a clinician who understands your whole picture (medical history, meds, symptoms, goals). Harm-reduction still counts. If full abstinence isn't feasible today: remove red-light foods first, shrink access, use “pause + plan” tools, and reach out before the binge.

Insulin resistance triggers everything from Alzheimer's to erectile dysfunction. Dr. Benjamin Bikman examines the metabolic crisis shared by 50% of America.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1201What We Discuss with Dr. Benjamin Bikman:Half of US adults have insulin resistance without knowing it. It's the upstream driver of most chronic diseases — from high blood pressure to erectile dysfunction to Alzheimer's — not just diabetes.Medical focus on blood glucose misses the real problem. Insulin levels are rarely tested, yet elevated insulin drives disease years before blood sugar becomes abnormal.Fat cell size matters more than total fat. East Asians develop insulin resistance with less weight gain because they have fewer, larger fat cells versus more, smaller ones in Europeans.Insulin resistance causes brain starvation. When neurons can't access glucose due to insulin resistance, cognition declines — which is why some in the medical community refer to Alzheimer's as "type 3 diabetes."Type 2 diabetes is reversible through carb restriction. In one study, 11 newly diagnosed patients reversed their diabetes in 90 days by eating unlimited protein and fat, just limiting carbs.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
