Podcasts about mounjaro

One of the sure-thing top stories of 2026 will be GLP1s, but will we see more studies and even approval for treating type 1 with these medications? We're talking about Ozempic, Mounjaro and the next versions like Retatrutide - that are just around the corner. I'm talking to  Dr. Cecelia Lo Wong, a diabetologist at the University of Colorado whose been on the front lines of this conversation for years,  including serving on FDA advisory committees. This is a wide ranging interview - we also talk about the growing needs of older adults with type 1 diabetes, how kidney and cardiovascular risk guidelines are evolving, and why managing diabetes in the hospital can still be such a challenge.

New Year not so new podcast! The Podgang kicks it off by laugh crying at the Venezuela situation, catch up on all things holiday and new year, mourn the loss of the 8×10 and more on the front half.

In this episode, Gianna Beasley welcomes listeners to 2026 and discusses the importance of setting health goals for the new year. She outlines a roadmap for success on a GLP-1 journey, emphasizing the need for reflection, refocusing, consistency, and celebrating progress. The conversation is structured around four phases that guide listeners through their health journey, encouraging self-awareness and sustainable habits.

This week, Bunnie Xo sits down with comedy powerhouse Bert Kreischer for a wildly unfiltered conversation that goes everywhere—and then some. Bert opens up about his recent health and weight-loss journey, including experimenting with Mounjaro, peptides, and GLP-based treatments, along with the very real (and very graphic) side effects no one warns you about.The two also dive deep into mental health, sharing candid experiences with OCD, anxiety, medication, and exposure therapy. Bert breaks down his long-standing rituals, flying anxieties, and the routines he's stuck to for years, while both reflect on how vulnerability, social media, and public scrutiny impact their lives behind the scenes.Of course, it wouldn't be a Bert episode without stories about marriage, intimacy, past relationships, marijuana, and the evolution of his comedy career—from early fame to what's next, including a new Netflix special on the horizon. They also touch on family dynamics, reality TV hypotheticals, and Bert's upcoming Netflix series, The Legend of Bert, premiering January 22.Equal parts hilarious, honest, and unexpectedly heartfelt—this episode pulls back the curtain on fame, fear, and figuring it out in real time.Bert Kreischer: WebsiteWatch Full Episodes & More: YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The US will "run" Venezuela until a "safe, proper and judicious transition" can be ensured, Donald Trump has said, after US strikes led to the capture of the Latin American country's president and his rendition to New York.What happens next in Venezuela? There's been celebration and condemnation of America's intervention. We'll hear from in Caracas and also the Colombia-Venezuela border.Also in the programme: We also hear from a former Trump insider who worked with him on Venezuela, ask a leading international criminal lawyer about the legality of the situation; and we'll hear about weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic, Mounjaro and Wegovy.(Photo shows Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro at the offices of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in New York.

En el Radar Empresarial de esta jornada ponemos el foco en el negocio de los medicamentos para perder peso en Asia, un mercado que ha despertado un fuerte interés entre las grandes farmacéuticas. Novo Nordisk y Eli Lilly han identificado a China como un territorio clave para su expansión y ya han comenzado a mover ficha. Ambas compañías han decidido reducir de forma significativa el precio de sus tratamientos adelgazantes en el país con vistas al próximo año. En el caso de la empresa danesa, el coste de Wegovy se ha recortado casi a la mitad, mientras que la multinacional estadounidense ha lanzado Mounjaro por 445 yuanes, muy por debajo de los más de 2.000 que costaba antes. Los cambios en los hábitos sociales han convertido a China en un mercado enorme, impulsado por el crecimiento de la clase media y una dieta cada vez más calórica. Este contexto ha provocado un aumento sostenido del sobrepeso y la obesidad. Las estimaciones apuntan a que en 2030 más del 65% de la población china podría sufrir alguno de estos problemas. Ante este escenario, también han surgido iniciativas locales para desarrollar fármacos propios, como Mazdutide, una inyección creada por Innovent Biologics junto a Eli Lilly China, con pérdidas de peso cercanas al 15% tras 48 semanas. El desafío sanitario no se limita a Asia y también es prioritario en Estados Unidos, donde la obesidad y la diabetes ocupan un lugar central en la agenda pública. China, de hecho, es el país con más personas con diabetes: en 2024 se contabilizaban 148 millones de adultos, según la International Diabetes Federation. Por ello, firmas globales y competidores locales compiten por el liderazgo, mientras Novo Nordisk y Eli Lilly refuerzan sus vínculos con las autoridades chinas e impulsan nuevas inversiones estratégicas. Este acercamiento busca asegurar presencia a largo plazo y apoyar los objetivos del plan China Saludable 2030 oficial nacional.

What happens when a medication designed to help you lose weight also changes what brings you pleasure?In this solo episode, I'm doing a deep dive into what nobody's discussing about GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) and what they do to your sex life.These medications have been absolutely transformational for metabolic disease, obesity, and cardiovascular health. But they don't just work on your gut and pancreas they work centrally in your brain, in your reward pathways, in your pleasure centers.I'm sharing stories from my practice: the glamorous patient who suddenly didn't want to shop anymore. The wine connoisseur who lost interest in drinking. The foodies who can't stand restaurants. And yes, the patients whose sexual desire completely disappeared because their brain stopped experiencing reward the same way.Highlights:Why GLP-1 medications are actually anti-inflammatory powerhouses (and what that means for PCOS, endometriosis, even PGAD).How these drugs modulate dopamine and serotonin the same pathways that control sexual desire.Why improving body image doesn't always improve sexual function (the biopsychosocial model).The emerging science on GLP-1s reducing alcohol cravings, substance use, and compulsive behaviors.What SHBG changes mean for your free testosterone and libido.Why your brain doesn't compartmentalize pleasure food, shopping, alcohol, and sex all use the same reward circuits.The informed consent conversation every doctor should be having (but isn't).If you're on a GLP-1 medication or considering starting one, ask your doctor about how it might affect what brings you pleasure including sex. With great power comes great responsibility, and sexual health is health.

What No One Tells You About Life After GLP-1 Meds GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have changed the game for weight loss—but what happens when the prescription ends and you need a plan? This week, I'm joined by Dr. Jim Hill, leading obesity researcher and architect of the National Weight Control Registry, to uncover what really happens after GLP-1s—and how to maintain your results without spiraling into regain. We'll explore the three types of weight regain, what makes maintenance so different from weight loss, and why your body is capable of mimicking GLP-1 effects naturally—if you know how to support it. Whether you're on these meds now, thinking of stopping, or just want to protect your progress, this is a must-listen.

Can you get rhabdomyolysis (rhabdo) from taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro(tirzepatide)? Here are the reports of people getting rhabdo after taking these medications, including how much they took, how high their creatine kinase level were, and what happened. Rhabdo after taking glucagon-like peptides appears to be rare but this is still a side effect people should be aware of.

Selene Daly is our residence expert when it comes to anything and everything dermatology related however. Today she is opening up about her experience with weight loss jabs. She has been on a medicated weight-loss journey with Mounjaro since June. Now approaching a four-stone loss. But the medication is only one element of a much longer, more complex story. Selene told Pat her story.

This week's Friday Five tackles a question many women quietly wonder about: “What should I expect if I restart Mounjaro after pregnancy and breastfeeding?”Whether you paused your GLP-1 for pregnancy, breastfeeding, or simply life circumstances, coming back to it after many months brings up a lot of unknowns. In this episode, I break down what typically happens, what we actually know from emerging research, and most importantly—why postpartum women need close, compassionate medical support.Inside the episode, we explore:1. What current guidelines say about GLP-1s, pregnancy, and breastfeedingThe traditional recommendation is stopping GLP-1s two months before trying to conceive and waiting until you're done breastfeeding to restart. But I also share a recent small study looking at semaglutide and its transfer into breast milk—and what that means (and doesn't mean) for real-life decisions.2. Why restarting after long-term use often looks differentIf you were previously on Mounjaro for 6–24 months, your body typically:tolerates the medication more easilycan often titrate up more quicklyexperiences fewer early side effects Some of this is physiologic, some behavioral—because you've already learned hydration, fiber strategies, and the day-after-injection do's and don'ts.3. The postpartum period is the “fourth trimester”—and it changes everythingExhaustion, unpredictable schedules, stress, hormones, sleep deprivation… postpartum is not just a season. It's a vulnerable season. This is why you should never “go cowboy alone” when restarting medication. A skilled clinician helps prevent:excessive restrictionmetabolic overwhelmworsening moodtipping into depression or anxietyextreme titration that backfires4. How ongoing support during pregnancy impacts your restartI share examples from my own clinic: Some women stay with me through pregnancy—not for weight loss, but for structure, nutrition support, and a stable relationship with food. Those women often find it much easier to restart postpartum because they never disconnected from caring for their bodies.5. The good news: most women feel relief when they restartOnce medically cleared and supported, many women say:their appetite becomes manageable againtheir mental load decreasestheir urges and cravings quiet downthey finally feel like they have helpAnd that's the whole point: to feel supported, not stressed.If you're in this season, I'm rooting for both your health and your baby's health. Postpartum is not a time to go it alone, and you deserve expert guidance every step of the way.I hope this episode gives you clarity, comfort, All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

O Mounjaro, medicamento contra diabete utilizado para auxiliar na perda de peso, se transformou no queridinho da classe política em Brasília. Reportagem do UOL mostrou que, no caso do senador Davi Alcolumbre (União Brasil-AP), a origem do medicamento é um empresário foragido da Justiça por envolvimento em um esquema de fraude em combustíveis e lavagem de dinheiro. O empresário é Roberto Augusto Leme da Silva, conhecido como Beto Louco, e está foragido, entre outras coisas, por suspeita de ligação com o Primeiro Comando da Capital, o PCC, maior facção do Brasil. Ele nega. É sobre esse presente de um foragido ao atual presidente do Senado que José Roberto Toledo conversa com o repórter Fabio Serapião, autor da reportagem, no novo episódio do podcast UOL Prime. Nota da defesa: A defesa desconhece os fatos objeto do questionamento. A respeito da inverídica relação de Roberto Leme e Mohamad Mourad com o PCC, são manifestamente equivocadas quaisquer afirmações nesse sentido. Não existe nenhuma evidência probatória que dê liame a essa falsa alegação. #uolprime #PodcastUOLPrime

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor answer listener questions about BMI cutoffs, weight cycling, metabolic adaptation, trauma, GLP-1 differences, and why some people gain weight on ultra-low calories. Dr. Cooper explains what's really happening inside the metabolic system and why individualized treatment—not dieting—creates sustainable change.Key Questions AnsweredIf my BMI doesn't “qualify” for GLP-1s, is Naltrexone + Bupropion helpful—and what labs matter first?Does being overweight always indicate metabolic dysfunction, and why are U.S. rates so high?If diets damage metabolism, what do you do when you're already 80 pounds overweight?How long does it take for leptin and ghrelin to stabilize with mechanical eating?How can someone gain weight on 1,200 calories/day?After sleeve gastrectomy, how do you eat enough while on a GLP-1?Is set point theory real—and how does the melanocortin pathway influence it?If obesity runs in my family, will I need meds like Zepbound for life?How do trauma and stress alter long-term metabolic health?Can GLP-1s offset weight gain from steroids, mood meds, or hormones?Why might Ozempic work well while Mounjaro causes weight gain?Key Takeaways1. BMI rules don't reflect metabolic truth.A mid-20s BMI can still mask significant dysfunction, especially with weight cycling.2. Weight cycling is metabolically stressful.Repeated losses/regains increase visceral fat, insulin abnormalities, and cardiovascular risk.3. Obesity is a multi-hormonal disease.Most people need pharmacology plus sleep, fueling, and movement—not restrictive dieting.4. Metabolic adaptation is powerful.Under-fueling lowers thyroid output, suppresses fat-burning, and slows metabolism dramatically.5. After bariatric surgery or on GLP-1s, frequency matters.Frequent, nutrient-dense snacks protect muscle, metabolism, and energy.6. Set point changes with better signaling.GLP-1s and related therapies help the brain accurately detect weight and lower the defended level.7. Genetics often mean lifelong support.Family patterns of obesity usually indicate long-term need for metabolic medication.8. Trauma amplifies metabolic risk.Childhood trauma disrupts IGF-1, sleep, stress hormones, insulin, leptin, and ghrelin.9. Medications can cause weight gain—GLP-1s can help counteract it.Steroids, mood meds, hormonal agents, and more can be metabolically unfriendly.10. “Newer” isn't always better.Some people respond poorly to the GIP component in Mounjaro/Zepbound. Individual physiology rules.Dr. Cooper's Actionable TipsRequest deeper evaluation: DEXA, visceral fat, fasting insulin/glucose, leptin, reproductive hormones.Stop restrictive dieting permanently—mechanical eating protects metabolic stability.Work with a fueling-focused dietitian (often ED-trained).Review your medication list for drugs known to cause weight gain.Don't switch GLP-1s or chase higher doses if your current regimen works.Notable Quote“Obesity isn't a willpower problem. It's a metabolic disease, and when the underlying system is supported, the body finally has permission to change.” — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: Fat Science Podcast WebsiteSubmit a Show Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comDr. Emily Cooper on LinkedInMark Wright on LinkedInAndrea Taylor on InstagramFat Science is your source for breaking diet myths and advancing the science of true metabolic health.

In today's episode, I'm sharing an update I never thought I'd be able to say out loud: it's now around four years since I last ate chocolate, cakes or sweets. I'm talking about where my binge eating started, how sugary foods became my comfort and my reward, and why nothing I tried could touch those cravings for long. I walk you through the turning point during my hypnotherapy training – the deep emotional release that shook my whole body, the work we did on repressed fear, and the specific hypnosis that made chocolate and sweets taste unbearably sweet. From that point on, I simply couldn't eat them in the same way again, and my relationship with food began to shift for good. I also share honestly about choosing to take the Mounjaro jab in 2025 . I explain what it did to my hunger and “food noise”, the side effects I noticed when I increased my dose, the weight I lost, and why I decided to come off it before reaching a final goal weight. This episode is for anyone who feels ruled by cravings, is curious about hypnosis, or worries what life looks like after stopping a weight loss jab.   Get the first 3 modules of “Ease Your Mind” mini-course now for FREE https://www.claireoldhamwest.com/Ease-your-mind

In this episode of Healthy Mom Healthy Baby Tennessee, Dr. Linley Wolfe interviews Dr. Carrie Brackney, a maternal-fetal medicine physician in Memphis, about GLP-1 receptor agonist medications (commonly known as Ozempic, Wegovy, and similar drugs) and their implications for pregnancy. The discussion covers how these medications work, their dramatic effects on weight loss and diabetes management, and the emerging phenomenon of "Ozempic babies" - unintended pregnancies occurring in women taking these medications. Dr. Brackney provides guidance on when to discontinue these medications before conception, discusses limited safety data in pregnancy, and explains what monitoring is recommended for women who become pregnant while taking GLP-1s. Both physicians share their personal experiences with these medications and express hope for future research on postpartum use.Episode Highlights00:00:04: Welcome to Healthy Mom, Healthy Baby Tennessee podcast, brought to you by the Tennessee Initiative for Perinatal Quality Care (TIPQC), which exists to improve health outcomes for mothers and infants in Tennessee 00:00:46: Dr. Linley Wolfe introduces Dr. Carrie Brackney, a maternal-fetal medicine physician in Memphis who has been practicing as a perinatologist for three years after working as a general OB-GYN for nine years00:01:32: Dr. Brackney describes her passion for caring for women with complex pregnancies and helping them find joy during challenging times00:02:03: Dr. Wolfe introduces the topic of GLP-1 medications, noting they have been revolutionary for people struggling with weight00:02:38: Dr. Brackney explains that GLP-1 receptor agonists work by activating glucagon-like peptide one receptors, regulating blood sugar, reducing appetite, and slowing digestion through multiple mechanisms00:03:46: Discussion of how GLP-1 medications have been around for diabetes treatment but have been increasingly used for weight loss over the last four to five years00:04:04: Dr. Brackney notes these medications are also being used for patients with cardiovascular conditions and kidney disease, showing decreased complications00:04:28: Dr. Wolfe mentions recent approval for people who are overweight with sleep apnea, predicting more indications will emerge00:04:42: Cost identified as one of the biggest barriers to these medications becoming more popular00:05:01: Dr. Brackney reports that semaglutide and tirzepatide show potential for over 10% weight loss, while liraglutide shows 5-15% total weight loss00:05:49: Discussion of side effects, with nausea and constipation being the most common, though they are treatable and many people adjust over time00:06:09: Dr. Wolfe asks about common brand names versus generic names for listener clarity00:06:25: Dr. Brackney lists brand names including Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus (semaglutide), Trulicity (dulaglutide), Victoza and Saxenda (liraglutide), and Mounjaro (tirzepatide)00:07:02: Discussion of compounded medications versus manufacturer medications, with Dr. Brackney noting compounded versions are not FDA-regulated and therefore not considered as safe00:07:55: Dr. Wolfe transitions to discussing pregnancy and the phenomenon of "Ozempic babies"00:08:51: Dr. Brackney explains that obesity reduces fertility, with obese women having three times higher risk of infertility and 40% higher miscarriage rates00:10:28: Discussion of how GLP-1 medications may interfere with contraceptive distribution in the body due to slowed gastric emptying00:11:04: Dr. Wolfe summarizes that better overall health, weight loss, and potential contraceptive interference all contribute to "Ozempic babies"00:11:27: Dr. Brackney recommends discontinuing GLP-1 medications at least one to two months before trying to get pregnant, noting limited data on ideal timing00:12:38: Discussion of the lack of...

Professor Michael Barry, Clinical Director for the National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics, on the cost of making the weight loss drug Mounjaro available to public patients.

Los fármacos adelgazantes se han convertido en un fenómeno global. Ozempic sobre todo, pero Wegovy, Mounjaro… son nombres que ya se escuchan por todas partes. Mientras el sobrepeso y la obesidad crecen, también lo hacen los trastornos de la alimentación, la gordofobia y el culto a la imagen. Y quienes pueden permitírselo —porque las dosis de solo un mes pueden costar entre 200 y 400 euros, y el tratamiento puede alargarse muchos— están comprando estos medicamentos, en algunos casos en el mercado negro y sin receta ni necesidad clínica. En plena fiebre por estos medicamentos, la Organización Mundial de la Salud ha publicado una guía que marca cómo deben usarse: ya los clasificaba como esenciales para personas con diabetes, ahora los amplía en casos de obesidad. No los rechaza, para algunas personas pueden ser una herramienta útil, aunque no los indica para todo el mundo ni en ningún caso como tratamiento exclusivo ni sin seguimiento médico. Y advierte de que no pueden quedar solo al alcance de los que tengan el dinero suficiente para pagarlos. Intervienen Mario Fontán, epidemiólogo social y asesor de la Secretaría de Estado del Ministerio de Sanidad, y Lucía Franco, periodista de EL PAÍS que ha investigado el mercado negro de los fármacos adelgazantes y aporta testimonios de vendedores.

If you've ever wondered what nutrition on a GLP-1 like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, or Mounjaro®, might look like, this episode is for you! Registered dietitian and lead dietitian for the Mayo Clinic Diet®, Tara Schmidt, joins us to share her expertise on why your habits matter just as much as the medication when it comes to weight loss. She shares what she tells her patients about appetite changes, why fatigue often hits around the three-month mark, and what might happen when you stop taking the medication. She also shares her recommendations on protein intake (spoiler: you might need less than you think), and meals that can help keep your energy up, maintaining muscle, and managing side effects like nausea.

The cozy, magical season is here! Leggings, sweaters, cookies, hibernation mode. But this can also become the season where we disconnect from our bodies without even realizing it.In this episode, I'm sharing a truth we don't talk about enough:✨ The longer you hide in leggings and oversized sweatshirts, the longer you stay in denial about where you really are physically and emotionally. ✨ Getting dressed, putting on makeup, and wearing a real outfit isn't about vanity… it's about awareness, identity, and showing up for yourself. ✨ And what I don't want is for you to “wake up” in spring only to realize nothing fits and you don't recognize yourself.Let's talk about how you can stay connected, confident, and present with yourself even during cozy season so you don't lose yourself in the process.

Convidados: Bruno Geloneze, endocrinologista e pesquisador da Unicamp, e Henderson Fürst, diretor da Sociedade Brasileira de Bioética. Na semana passada, uma operação da Polícia Federal mirou um esquema ilegal de produção de canetas usadas para emagrecimento. No Brasil, apenas um laboratório tem autorização para vender a Tirzepatida (princípio ativo do Mounjaro) em larga escala. Mas o remédio pode ser feito em farmácias manipuladas, para que médicos ajustem a dose exata para pacientes com necessidades específicas. No esquema investigado pela PF, o médico produzia Tirzepatida em larga escala, sem seguir as regras estabelecidas pela Anvisa. A alta demanda por canetas emagrecedoras manipuladas tem explicação: no caso deste tipo de medicamento, o preço chega a ser metade do valor dos remédios originais, cujas patentes estão em poder de grandes fabricantes. Neste episódio, Victor Boyadjian conversa com o médico endocrinologista Bruno Geloneze e com o advogado Henderson Fürst. Especialista em endocrinologia e metabologia e pesquisador do Centro de Pesquisa em Obesidade e Comorbidades da Unicamp, Geloneze explica quais as diferenças entre os remédios feitos em laboratório e os manipulados. Ele detalha os riscos do uso de canetas emagrecedoras sem saber sua procedência exata e é taxativo: o barato pode sair caro. Diretor da Sociedade Brasileira de Bioética, Henderson fala sobre como um julgamento no Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) nas próximas semanas pode mudar o status das patentes das canetas emagrecedoras no Brasil. Ex-presidente da Comissão de Bioética da OAB, Henderson fala quais seriam os impactos do fim das patentes deste tipo de medicamento e explica quais regras da Anvisa para produção e consumo das canetas estão em vigor.

Topics We Cover: 00:00 – New data from Harvard/Mass General may classify nearly 70% of adults as having obesity 03:00 – A new oral triple agonist shows record-setting absorption rates 07:00 – Fractal Health's Revita procedure: weight maintenance after stopping GLP-1s 12:00 – Zepbound vial prices drop (full breakdown by dose) 16:00 – Dave's personal experience switching off Mounjaro and intense hunger return 22:00 – Novo Nordisk's EVOKE/EVOKE+ Alzheimer's trial: what the data really means 29:00 – Why GLP-1 neurological research is just getting started 33:00 – Updates on access, partners, and major news coming soon for Medicare patients If you're on Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Saxenda, Trulicity, or compounded versions, this episode gives you the insight and context you need to have more competent and confident conversations with your doctor. Bullet Point Summary of the Podcast Episode New Obesity Measurement Data (Harvard/Mass General Study) Harvard and Mass General propose adding waist circumference to BMI to better diagnose obesity. Traditional BMI misses key factors like muscle mass and body composition. Using the updated measure, Americans classified as obese jumps from ~43% to almost 69%. This means 7 out of 10 U.S. adults would now qualify as having the disease of obesity. Dave notes this validates many people who “feel” metabolically unwell despite a “normal” BMI. Reinforces his claim that “most people should be talking to their doctors about GLP-1s.” New Oral Triple Agonist (Ascletis – ASC41/ASC? Molecule) From Ascletis (A-S-C-L-E-T-I-S), developing an oral triple agonist targeting: GLP-1 GIP Glucagon Similar in mechanism to retatrutide, expected around 2027. Preclinical (animal) data show stunning results: Oral bioavailability of 4.2% 9× higher than tirzepatide 30× higher than oral semaglutide 6× higher than oral retatrutide 57× greater drug exposure than oral retatrutide Half-life ~56 hours Stronger receptor activation than retatrutide in vitro Suggests potential for the first powerful oral triple agonist—worth watching. ️ 3. Discussion of the Gray Market / TikTok Experience Dave briefly recounts losing his TikTok account and landing in an algorithm filled with teenagers promoting gray-market “retatrutide.” Expresses concern over unregulated peptide sales, especially to minors. Fractal Health's New Data – Weight Maintenance After Stopping GLP-1s New results from the Reveal One study (Fractal Health). Participants: lost 24% of body weight on GLP-1s → stopped injections → got one Revita procedure. At 6 months post-GLP-1 discontinuation: Weight changed only 1.5% (vs. ~10% regain in typical off-drug trials) HbA1c barely shifted Safety profile clean Suggests possible long-term weight maintenance without injections through gut mucosal re-lining. Dave describes his own recent attempt to switch drugs and significant hunger return. Food Noise & Biologic Hunger Dave discusses how stopping Mounjaro caused terrifying, primal hunger. Describes the distinction between: Food noise (brain-based thoughts) Hunger signals (biological/animalistic) Reinforces why many patients cannot maintain weight loss without support. Zepbound (Tirzepatide) Cash-Pay Price Reductions Eli Lilly drops cash-pay vial pricing: 2.5 mg: $349 → $299 5 mg: $499 → $399 7.5–15 mg: $499 → $449 Community feedback (informal poll): Most say still too high to leave compounded versions. Many would switch to branded if price hit $200–$300. Dave notes the Most Favored Nations agreement will push GLP-1 prices toward $250/month within 24 months. Alzheimer's Study (Novo Nordisk – EVOKE & EVOKE+) Oral semaglutide (Rybelsus, 14 mg) did not slow Alzheimer's clinical progression. Biomarkers improved but daily function and cognitive decline did not improve vs placebo. Important context: Oral Rybelsus is a weak form of semaglutide; stronger versions (like Wegovy 2.4 mg or upcoming high-dose oral Wegovy) not tested. Weight loss is not desirable in Alzheimer's patients, influencing drug selection. Dave emphasizes: This was a nearly $700M trial and an act of scientific courage. This is NOT the end of GLP-1 Alzheimer's research. Future molecules may target neurological pathways without suppressing appetite. Mentions Lilly's brenipatide, a GIP receptor agonist being developed for: Addiction Opioid dependency Possibly asthma ️ 8. Access, Cost, and Patient Empowerment Highlights Shed as a partner offering telehealth GLP-1 access. Notes many patients hide GLP-1 use from their primary care doctors. Reinforces OTP's mission: better, more honest conversations with clinicians. Shapa (Numberless Scale) & Dave's Personal Update Dave explains how the Shapa numberless scale helped him stay engaged during weight fluctuations. Finds stepping on “zones” (green/gray/blue) less emotionally damaging than numbers. Closing Notes Promises upcoming Eli Lilly savings card update.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the nation's grief and anger after the Washington terror attack, the deepening crisis within America's immigration system, and President Trump's most sweeping border actions yet. He also examines the political backlash, the debate over assimilation, and the global pressures shaping events from Europe to Venezuela. America Mourns and Demands Answers: Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe remains in critical condition while Specialist Sarah Beckstrom is laid to rest after last week's terror attack in Washington. DHS confirmed the attacker, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was a former CIA-backed Afghan Zero Unit fighter who was radicalized after arrival in the United States. Investigators say he drifted between Washington State, Arizona, and the East Coast with little oversight, revealing systemic vetting failures across multiple administrations.   Vetting Breakdown Exposed: Inspector General reports show that over two hundred thousand Afghans brought into the country during the 2021 evacuation were admitted with almost no reliable databases, poor ID verification, and limited interagency cooperation. None received continual vetting after entry. Bryan explains why "strict vetting" is a political myth and why U.S. systems remain unable to verify criminal history, ideology, or cultural fit for many migrants.   Trump Orders the Most Sweeping Immigration Freeze in Decades: The President has paused all asylum applications, halted Afghan visa processing, and instructed his team to permanently pause migration from Third World nations to reset the system. Green card and citizenship requests from nineteen countries are suspended. Trump is also considering the denaturalization of foreign-born citizens who fail loyalty or cultural compatibility standards. Legal scholars note that Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act grants the President broad authority to take such steps.   Political Firestorm and Cultural Divide: Republicans and most Independents support a historic crackdown, while Democrats accuse Trump of racism and xenophobia. Some leaders, including Representative Jasmin Crockett and Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, blamed the National Guard deployments for the attack. Bryan argues that many progressive lawmakers reject assimilation because they reject the idea of American culture itself, pointing to recent examples in education, media, and politics.   College Degrees Lose Appeal: New polling shows only 33 percent of Americans believe a four-year degree is worth the cost. Interest in vocational training and maritime careers is rising as tuition increases outpace wages. Maritime academies report that graduates earn more than $200,000 a year after six months of work.   The Autopen Controversy: President Trump announced he is canceling all executive actions signed by Joe Biden through the autopen, citing concerns that Biden did not authorize their use. The Justice Department may soon bring cases that will force the Supreme Court to clarify the legality of autopen approvals.   Debate Over Unlawful Orders Heats Up: Reports claim Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ordered a second strike on a cartel boat. Hegseth denies it. Senator Mark Kelly suggested troops should rely on intuition when evaluating orders, which critics warn could lead to chaos and politicized discipline. The issue may shape U.S. operations in the Caribbean.   Global Flashpoints: Venezuela and Europe: Trump rejected demands from Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro for guaranteed amnesty and military control as part of an exit deal. Maduro may attempt a guerrilla resistance if forced out. In Europe, Islamist protests are disrupting Christmas markets in Belgium and Germany, where security costs have surged. France's populist movement is surging in polls as crime tied to migrants fuels public frustration. Portugal's populist party Chega is also now tied for first place in national polling.   Medical News: A major UK study finds that weight loss drugs like Mounjaro and Zepbound must be taken long-term to maintain results, with many patients regaining most of the weight after stopping treatment.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Washington DC terror attack Afghan Zero Unit, Rahmanullah Lakanwal vetting failure, Trump asylum freeze Section 212f, de-naturalization debate immigration reform, Jasmin Crockett Guard criticism, Debbie Wasserman Schultz Trump blame, college degree value drop vocational training, autopen Biden executive actions, Hegseth double tap allegation, Venezuela Maduro exit talks, Belgium Germany Christmas market threats, France National Rally Bardella, Portugal Chega Ventura, GLP-1 weight loss drug study UK

This week Kevin and PJ are feeling fragile as PJ's back is in bits after a yoga class and the lads realise it is probably a blessing they do not have periods because they would absolutely never shut up about it. For the theme they dive into GLP 1s, prompted by the rise of Ozempic and Mounjaro. They chat about their own relationships with their bodies, the way fat people are treated in society and how Irish mothers are far more likely to compliment you on losing five pounds than saving a life.For support around body image, eating disorders, or related concerns, visit BodyWhysSign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

  As we head towards December, today's episode leans into something many of us are feeling right now: that pull toward more — more deals, more shopping, more pressure, more to-do lists. And yet, beneath all of that, what most of us actually want is much simpler… we want ease. In this episode, I'm talking about the emotional side of Black Friday season, why clutter and chaos in our surroundings often mirror what's happening in our minds, and how easy it is to slip into old habits when life feels heavy. I'm also sharing some very personal updates about my dad's health, the anger I've had to process, and the steps I've taken to protect my own wellbeing during an incredibly stressful few weeks.

In this weekend deep dive, we break down how a 149-year-old pharma company from Indianapolis reinvented itself through GLP-1 weight-loss drugs like Mounjaro and Zepbound, overtook Novo Nordisk, and became one of Wall Street's hottest stocks. We cover Lilly's history from insulin to Prozac, the explosive growth of its weight-loss franchise, the coming pill that could unlock an even bigger market, and the risks ahead. Is the trillion-dollar valuation just the start, or is the stock already priced for perfection?

Before we all slip into our cozy clothes and head toward the candied yams, I wanted to drop in with a quick Thanksgiving episode and a little love note from my heart to yours.Today, I'm sharing what I'm truly grateful for this season: you.

You're allowed to enjoy your plate, be present with your people, and let go of the guilt that diet culture tries to hand you.Take what you need, leave what you don't, and know that you're not alone.Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving filled with yummy food, core memories, and zero shame. I'm so grateful for you.

In this fun, laugh-filled and genuinely eye-opening episode, Michelle Ford sits down with women's health nutritionist Emma Bardwell to tackle one of the most underrated pillars of midlife wellbeing: fibre - the true unsung hero of women's health. Between giggles over “poophoria” (yes, it's a thing!) and some serious myth-busting, Michelle and Emma unpack why getting enough fibre and protein is essential - especially if you're using GLP-1 weight-loss injections like Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro. As Emma explains, these medications slow digestion, making fibre even more important for gut motility, nutrient absorption and long-term health.Forget fibre's dusty, boring reputation - this episode gives it a full glow-up. Through perimenopause and menopause, when hormones fluctuate and the gut becomes increasingly linked to mood, energy and resilience, fibre becomes a midlife powerhouse. Michelle and Emma explore how nourishing your gut supports immunity, mental wellbeing, metabolism and overall vitality, and why our midlife microbiome deserves centre stage. With Emma's straight-talking, practical approach, you'll learn simple, everyday ways to boost your fibre intake - no chia-seed obsession required.By the end, you'll never look at your plate (or your bowel movements!) the same way again.

In this conversation, Gianna discusses the role of GLP-1 medications in weight management, emphasizing that they are tools to support individuals in their health journeys rather than shortcuts. She highlights the importance of building habits and how GLP-1s can reduce resistance in the body, making it easier to achieve health goals.TakeawaysGLP-1s are tools that enhance the effectiveness of your efforts.They help build habits without constant struggle.The use of GLP-1s is not a shortcut but a strategic change.They support the body's processes to function more easily.Feeling your best is achievable with the right support.Weight management requires personal effort alongside medication.GLP-1s can reduce friction in health journeys.Building habits is crucial for long-term success.The relief of effective strategies can be rewarding.Support from GLP-1s can lead to better health outcomes.

In this episode, Dr. Taves and Dr. Sarah Thomas explore how GLP-1 weight loss drugs—such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro—may influence headaches and migraines. They break down how these medications work in the body, how blood sugar stability impacts migraine symptoms, and why some people notice improvement while others experience worsening headaches.They also discuss an important but often overlooked consideration: even if GLP-1 medications help with weight loss or migraine symptoms, there may be other factors to think about before relying on them long-term. From side effects to the difference between symptom management and addressing the root cause, this episode helps listeners understand the full picture so they can make informed decisions.Novera: Headache Center
