The speed of weight loss, rather than the GLP-1 itself, is often the primary driver of muscle mass reduction.Many individuals on GLP-1s aim to eventually discontinue the medication, making long-term lifestyle planning a crucial part of the treatment.Stopping GLP-1s abruptly can trigger rebound weight gain due to the body's natural metabolic response.AI's role in healthcare should be focused on enhancing human care delivery, not replacing the crucial empathetic connection.The future of healthcare will include advanced primary care that addresses the gaps between traditional doctor visits.Resources:Connect with and follow Dr. Carolyn Jasik on LinkedIn.Discover more about Omada Health on LinkedIn and their website.

This week I have my very good friend and world renown cellular health expert, longevity specialist and orthopedic surgeon Dr Elizabeth Yurth (MD, ABPMR, ABAARM, FAARM, FAARFM, FSSRP) of the Boulder Longevity Institute to guest. Locked away in a vault somewhere deep inside the Boulder Longevity Institute lies the secret everyone wishes they could get their hands on – the supplement routine of Dr. Elizabeth Yurth. As Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of BLI, clients and non-clients alike long to know what perfect blend of supplementation Dr. Yurth uses. Someone in this position must have it down pat! Well, the disappointing answer is: One size does not fit all. What suits the current lifestyle, biology, and needs of Dr. Yurth may be a far cry from the needs of other individuals. We are all unique, and alas, so are our supplement requirements. However Dr. Yurth does offer an overview of supplements that are beneficial to virtually everyone. The areas of cell membrane, gut, and mitochondrial health are key focus points when it comes to more generalised selection of appropriate supplements. For those who are looking to reach a solid baseline that promotes health and longevity, these daily supplements could be the answer. As always, we remind that every individual is different, and you should consult with a physician before starting any new health routines.

We explore the hidden world of male sexual dysfunction, from erectile dysfunction to Peyronie's disease, and uncover why women's sexual health still lags behind in research, funding, and treatment options.We also tackle the controversial topic of testosterone—its impact on men and women, the myths around its use, and why it's still inaccessible for women despite clear benefits. Dr. Khera offers actionable advice on lifestyle changes, sleep, and stress management that can dramatically improve sexual function for both partners.This isn't just about medicine—it's about partnership, communication, and the power of addressing sexual health as a team. Join us for a candid discussion that might change the way you think about intimacy, health, and what it means to truly support your partner.Highlights:Why sexual dysfunction is a “couple's disease” and how treating one partner impacts the other.The silent epidemic of Peyronie's disease and its profound emotional toll.The overlooked benefits of testosterone for women and why FDA-approved options remain elusive.How lifestyle changes like the Mediterranean diet, exercise, and sleep can reverse sexual dysfunction.The importance of destigmatizing sexual health concerns and advocating for the right care.If this episode resonated with you, don't keep it to yourself!

Welcome to Episode 87 of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In today's episode, we are joined by the remarkable Dr. Kemia Sarraf, a physician, internist, and public health professional who has devoted her career to pioneering trauma-informed and trauma-responsive coaching practices. Dr. Sarraf will share her unique insights on recognizing trauma within ourselves to better assist others, grounded in her rich background in internal medicine, public health, and leadership development. We'll delve into the historical context of trauma, how it manifests in healthcare professionals, and practical ways to mitigate it, all while discussing the broader implications for physician burnout and sustainable healthcare environments. Join us as we explore the transformative power of trauma-informed coaching, the critical importance of connection, and strategies for balancing the demands of medical practice with personal well-being. Whether you're a physician, healthcare provider, or simply interested in the dynamics of healthcare, this episode promises to offer valuable perspectives and actionable advice. Stay tuned for an engaging and informative conversation with Dr. Kemia Sarraf. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Understanding Trauma: Trauma is universal and recognizing its manifestations, both overt and subtle, in ourselves is essential to effectively help others. Connection as a Disruptor: Forming meaningful connections and offering clarity in the face of uncertainty can significantly mitigate toxic stress. Rest and Adaptability: Challenging the notion of perfect balance, the focus should shift to planning for the natural ebb and flow of effort and rest, delegating tasks, and sometimes lowering non-critical standards to maintain well-being. Dr. Kemia Sarraf Bio: Dr. Kemia Sarraf (“Dr. K” to friends and clients alike) completed her Medical Degree and Master of Public Health at the University of Utah School of Medicine, and her residency in Internal Medicine at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, Washington University School of Medicine. The arc of her 2+ decade career has included medical practice, public health program development, nonprofit leadership, business ownership, multiple board positions, trauma-mitigation work, and farming. Dr. K founded Lodestar in 2016 specializing in trauma-responsive coaching methods for physician colleagues experiencing high levels of severe burnout, vicarious trauma, and moral injury. Her background in public health and trauma led her to create a unique trauma-responsive coaching paradigm, particularly well-suited for frontline professionals working in environments of chronic toxic stress who directly experience the multivariate ways that vicarious and secondary trauma “shows up” in daily life. Dr. K's program has been applied across multiple industries for both leadership training and in the creation of trauma-responsive cultures for hard-driving, highly skilled professionals in any industry. Dr. K serves as adjunct faculty at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in the office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, bringing a trauma-informed lens and trauma-mitigation approach to institutional Justice, Equity and Anti-Racism work. She is engaged in multiple leadership initiatives and is co-lead faculty and facilitator in the ACGME Equity Matters program where her unique paradigm focuses on learners at every stage of their medical training and throughout their careers. Kemia is an authentic, compelling storyteller and a powerful keynote speaker. She is the recipient of numerous awards for her leadership and vision and was an AMA Women Physicians Inspiration Award Honoree in 2021. She is renowned for her boundless compassion, wisdom, and humor. Kemia and her physician-husband have been married for twenty years, and the couple live on a small working farm in Central Illinois with their four sons and "too many critters to count." -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Kirk Parsley served as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One from June 2009 to January 2013. While there, he led the development and supervised the group's first Sports Medicine Rehabilitation center. He is a former SEAL, and received his Medical Degree from Bethesda, Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences (USUHS) in 2004. He interned in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Balboa Naval Hospital San Diego in 2005 and subsequently completed a Navy residency in Hyperbarics and Diving Medicine in 2006.

He continues to consult for multiple corporations, and professional athletes/teams. Doctor Parsley lectures worldwide on sleep, wellness, and hormonal optimization and is currently completing a book on sleep and health optimization. His philosophy for wellness is simple; in order to optimize our health and get the most out of our bodies and minds, we must live more closely to the way we evolved as a species. He believes that many diseases and disorders that we accept as “inevitable” in modern society are unnecessary complications of poor sleeping habits, living in a toxic environment, eating foods we were not designed to digest, and allowing stress to overwhelm us. His passion is to help his patients and clients achieve the highest quality of life possible, and realize their health, performance, and longevity goals.

In 1970, only ten percent of doctors were women. Living in Oklahoma, Cynthia Mackey was a young woman and mother who dreamt of becoming a doctor. Her first husband wouldn't let her go to school and then was killed flying cocaine for Pablo Escobar. Her second husband didn't approve either. Finally, as a single mom, she decided to finish medical school in Grenada. She was close to achieving her dream, when a communist revolution swept the island, and she was accused of being a CIA agent. Dr. Mackey's story reminds us of the obstacles women have had to overcome and the unusual barriers they had to break through in order to realize their dreams.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com
