On this episode of the Daily Wellness Podcast, I interview Dr. Jeff Hockings, cofounder of a patented type 2 diabetes reversal program. Dr. Hockings breaks down why type 2 diabetes is a lifestyle-driven condition, how it can be reversed (not cured) with targeted diet, coaching, supplements and accountability, and what real-life outcomes look like when people commit to change. If you or someone you love is managing blood sugar, this conversation offers practical hope and a clear path forward.Main points:Types of diabetes: distinction between type 1 (autoimmune), type 2 (lifestyle/adult-onset, reversible) and the emerging “type 3” link to Alzheimer's/dementia.Causes and patterns: long-term high-carb/high-sugar diets, hidden sugars, sedentary lifestyle and societal factors (fast food, screen time) drive insulin resistance.Most primary care doctors are trained to manage diabetes with medications, not reverse it — reversing requires different nutritional and lifestyle approaches.What “reversal” means: achieving a non-diabetic A1C (≤ ~5.9) while off diabetic medications — essentially remission that requires lifelong maintenance of healthy habits.Program structure includes a personalized telemedicine program (3–7 months typical), assigned health coach, daily/weekly check-ins, Enjoy/Avoid food list, supplements, exercise guidance, and medication weaning coordinated with the patient's physician.Diet approach: similar to a paleo-style focus — whole foods (vegetables, fruits, meats), avoid high-carb processed foods and dairy/sugary items; not a restrictive calorie-counting diet, but sustainable lifelong eating patterns.Role of supplements and exercise.Benefits beyond glucose: improved blood pressure, cholesterol, kidney function, sleep, energy, sexual function (ED improvement), and reduced need for multiple medications.Success examples: dramatic cases shared — patients coming off high insulin doses, large A1C improvements, weight loss and resolution of neuropathy/blurred vision after following the program.GLP-1s and meds: GLP-1s and other pharmaceutical options are treatments (and increasingly popular), but they are not a reversal — they carry side effects and are not a substitute for lifestyle-based remission.Prediabetes is usually easy to reverse with simpler interventions; routine annual lab work is key for early detection.The program is telemedicine-based, available across the U.S., with a money-back guarantee if prescribed steps are followed and reversal is not achieved.Connect with Dr. Jeff HockingsWebsite and webinar: https://diabetesreversalgroup.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/diabetesreversalgroup/Please take 1 minute to show your support!  Apple Podcasts: Sign in and scroll to the bottom to review!https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/daily-wellness-podcast/id1651051841Spotify: Leave a rating and follow the show!

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 

This week on Optimal Metabolism, Shana sits down with one of her greatest mentors in circadian and quantum biology, Carrie Bennett, to uncover the surprising science behind winter wellness. Together, they explore why embracing the dark may be the key to restoring your melatonin rhythm, healing adrenal fatigue, and boosting mitochondrial health this season. You'll learn how our biology shifts during winter, why being more ketogenic and aligned with shorter days supports metabolic healing, and whether we really need to supplement with vitamin D—or if nature already built the answer into the circadian rhythm itself. If you've been feeling sluggish, anxious, or out of sync this winter, this episode will help you reconnect to the light and dark rhythms God designed for your energy, hormones, and overall wellness. What You'll Learn ✨ How embracing darkness boosts melatonin and repairs circadian rhythm ✨ Why longer nights are not a problem to fix—but a healing signal for the body ✨ The link between mitochondrial water, light exposure, and adrenal recovery ✨ Why going more ketogenic in winter can enhance energy and fat-burning ✨ The truth about vitamin D supplementation during darker months ✨ How meal timing and grounding restore cortisol and hormonal balance ✨ Carrie's top practical steps to live in sync with natural light cycles Links & Resources

Dr. Leonard Egede, Dr. Rebekah Walker, and Dr. Obinna Ekwunife from the Department of Medicine at the University of Buffalo, NY, describe their #research paper #published in Volume 17, Issue 8 of Aging-US, entitled “Longitudinal relationship between social and CVD risk factors in older adults with prediabetes: the HRS 2006-2016.” #interview #authorinterview #aging #prediabetes #cardiovascular #health #openaccess #openscience #peerreviewed #journal #publication #publishing #meded DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206308 Corresponding author - Leonard E. Egede - legede@buffalo.edu Video interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MSTk3GQAGA Video transcript - https://aging-us.net/2025/10/08/behind-the-study-social-and-cardiovascular-risk-factors-in-older-adults-with-prediabetes/ Abstract Background: This study examines how multiple social risk factors influence cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk control over time in older adults with prediabetes using a nationally representative cohort. Methods: Data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) included 5,086 U.S. adults aged 50+ with prediabetes. Five social risk domains (economic stability, environment, education, healthcare, and social context) were examined as independent variables, while CVD risk factors included glycemic control (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and cholesterol ratio (total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein). Mixed-effects models assessed relationships between social risk factors and CVD outcomes, adjusting for age, gender, race, and marital status. Results: The sample had an average age of 68.6 years, with 60.2% female, and 70.97% identifying as non-Hispanic Black. Average HbA1c was 5.7, SBP 129.4, and cholesterol ratio 3.85. Limited education was consistently associated with increased CVD risk—HbA1c (β = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.01–0.06, p < 0.001), SBP (β = 4.34, 95% CI: 2.96–5.71, p < 0.001), and cholesterol ratio (β = 0.08, 95% CI: 0.01–0.16, p < 0.05) —in the fully adjusted model. Medication cost-related non-adherence was significantly associated with higher HbA1c levels (β = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.002–0.06, p < 0.05). Difficulty paying bills and lack of health insurance were both significantly associated with higher cholesterol levels (β = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.002–0.06, p < 0.05) and (β = 0.22, 95% CI: 0.15–0.30, p < 0.001), respectively. Conclusions: Social risk factors, particularly limited education, significantly impact CVD risk in older adults with prediabetes.

Heart disease is still the number one killer in the U.S.—but are we even looking at the right markers to prevent it? In this eye-opening episode, Shana sits down with Dr. Urban Kiernan, founder and CEO of iMetabolic Biopharma Corporation, to break down what your lipid panel actually means, why total cholesterol and LDL often distract from the real risks, and how insulin resistance plays a central role in heart disease—especially during menopause. Dr. Kiernan shares how his biotech company is leveraging AI, protein therapy, and root-cause science to transform how we prevent and treat metabolic disease—and why most conventional approaches miss the mark entirely. If you've ever been confused by your labs, put on statins without a full explanation, or wondered why we're still seeing record rates of heart attacks and strokes, this conversation will bring clarity and direction.

About 1 in 3 American teens — more than 8 million adolescents — already live with prediabetes, putting them at high risk for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke later in life Prediabetes is often silent, with many teens showing no symptoms, which means serious damage begins long before the condition is diagnosed Risk is higher in teens who are overweight, eat ultraprocessed foods, or are inactive, but lifestyle changes dramatically lower their chances of developing diabetes When prediabetes progresses, it damages blood vessels, disrupts energy production inside cells, and strains your pancreas until it no longer keeps blood sugar in check Parents play a key role in reversing prediabetes by encouraging healthier food choices, daily movement, regular sunlight, and monitoring blood sugar markers before Type 2 diabetes takes hold

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.

Join us for a powerful conversation with Dr. Alexis Alexander-Epperly, a double board-certified physician in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Epperly brings a unique blend of medical expertise, faith, and holistic care to every patient she serves.A graduate of the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences and Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Epperly is also a proud Navy veteran, wife, and mother. She is deeply committed to addressing not only the physical, but also the mental and spiritual well-being of her patients—bringing joy into each encounter.In this session, Dr. Epperly will share the early signs of prediabetes that are often overlooked—and why catching them now can prevent long-term health issues. You'll learn:The most common (and subtle) red flags of prediabetesWhy lifestyle choices matter more than you thinkSimple, practical steps you can take today to protect your healthDon't miss this chance to learn from a physician who combines science, compassion, and real-world wisdom to help you live a healthier, fuller life

If you're dealing with anxiety, low mood, chronic stress, or hormonal chaos—you're not broken. You may just be out of rhythm. In this powerful episode, Shana is joined by Dr. Kelli Ritter—licensed counselor, functional nutritional therapy practitioner, and quantum circadian specialist—to unpack how circadian disruption is a hidden root cause behind so many modern symptoms. From anxiety and insomnia to burnout and hormone imbalance, Dr. Kelli reveals how our light environment, trauma history, and daily rhythms impact the nervous system—and what it really takes to heal. This conversation is both science-backed and soul-nourishing, especially for the woman who's doing everything right but still feels stuck.

A first of its kind study challenges the conventional thinking about the onset of Type 2 diabetes and identifies the signs of risks before pre-diabetes. Called "pre-prediabetes," it zeroes in on people with insulin resistance and shows that diabetes is a continuous disease that demands early detection and intervention through lifestyle changes.

Prediabetes isn't just one thing, yet that's how it's usually treated. In this episode, Dr. Jedha unpacks the groundbreaking concept of prediabetes phenotypes, or “types,” showing how your body's unique pattern of blood sugar changes can reveal the real reasons behind your numbers.You'll learn about the four main types of prediabetes, whether your fasting glucose is high, your blood sugar spikes after meals, both are elevated, or your A1c is creeping up despite normal spot checks. More importantly, you'll discover what these patterns mean, and how pinpointing your type could unlock smarter, more personalized strategies to reverse the trend toward type 2 diabetes.This is a must-listen if you've ever felt stuck, frustrated, or confused by your lab results. You'll walk away with more clarity and confidence to take targeted steps to change your prediabetes health, because once you know your type, you can finally focus on what your body truly needs.For show notes and resources, please visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.comTo share your questions and suggestions, leave us a voice message or email at: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/messageExplore our proven programs and services, visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/programsSubscribe to our free weekly newsletter for podcast updates, valuable nutrition tips and more: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/subscribe

Prediabetes raises the risk of death by 64% in adults aged 20 to 54, making it far more dangerous at a younger age than later in life Most people with prediabetes have no obvious symptoms, which means you could be at risk without knowing it unless you get tested Unlike older adults, younger people with prediabetes often face faster disease progression and fewer overlapping health issues to mask the danger Simple lifestyle shifts like cutting vegetable oils, reintroducing the right carbs, reducing toxin exposure, and getting daily sunlight restore your body's ability to make energy The HOMA-IR test is an effective way to track insulin resistance and see if your efforts are truly reversing prediabetes

Según la Asociación Americana de la Diabetes, la diabetes es la octava causa de muerte en el mundo y es culpable de 1.5 millones de muertes cada año. Pero otros 2.2 millones de muertes están vinculadas a los altos niveles de azúcar en la sangre. En 2015, al menos 350 millones de personas ya vivían con diabetes, una cifra que la Organización Mundial de la Salud calcula que aumentara en un 50% en esta década. La epidemia de diabetes y obesidad esta creciendo tanto que los doctores lo han nombrado diabesity. Por suerte hay mucho que se puede hacer para evitar unirse a ese grupo en crecimiento y es el propósito del programa de hoy.

Type 2 diabetes used to be called “adult-onset diabetes.” Not anymore. Today, one in three American teens has prediabetes, and diagnoses of type 2 diabetes are climbing rapidly in youths — high schoolers, young adults in their twenties and thirties, and even in children. When diabetes strikes young, it doesn't just start earlier, it progresses faster, becomes more aggressive, and leads to serious complications much sooner.In this episode, Dr. Jedha unpacks the shocking new statistics from the CDC and global research, explores why this epidemic is accelerating among young people, and reveals what the latest studies tell us about their heightened risks, from early blood vessel damage to kidney, eye, and heart complications appearing in their twenties. You'll also hear about the debate over medications in youth, and most importantly, the powerful role of prevention, lifestyle, and family support.If you're a parent, grandparent, teacher, or simply someone concerned about the health of the next generation, this conversation will open your eyes. It's not just a problem for the future, it's happening now. Early action works and together we can help turn the tide!For show notes and resources, please visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.comTo share your questions and suggestions, leave us a voice message or email at: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/messageExplore our proven programs and services, visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/programsSubscribe to our free weekly newsletter for podcast updates, valuable nutrition tips and more: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/subscribe

Diabetes and Brain Health “When most people think of diabetes, they think about insulin or blood sugar before they think about memory or mood.

In the U.S., nearly one in five children are living with obesity, and over a quarter of adolescents aged twelve to nineteen are prediabetic. Shockingly, only two percent of children meet the daily recommended intake of fruits and vegetables, and over thirteen million children live in food insecure households. This means that school meals are often the most reliable and nutritious food they get each day. In this episode, we hear from three innovative chefs working in school nutrition who are transforming the school cafeteria. They share what goes into creating delicious and nutritious school lunch programs that set children up for success, even under tight budgets and strict guidelines.

NBC News and TODAY contributors Dr. Natalie Azar and Joy Bauer detail a checklist for preventing and reversing prediabetes. Also, Al sits down with two restaurant critics from The New York Times to find out how many meals they eat and how they land those coveted reservations. Plus, chef Matt Abdoo shares a recipe for peach and jalapeño-glazed chicken thighs.

De acuerdo con la Organización Mundial de la Salud, 400 millones de personas viven con prediabetes en el mundo y se prevé que en el 2040, haya más de 109 millones de personas con diabetes tipo 2. Invité a Dr. Mau para que nos expliqué qué onda con la prediabetes y la resistencia a la insulina, ¿son lo mismo? Y también para que nos diga qué podemos hacer todos los días para evitarlas. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this powerful episode of Hormones, Metabolism & You!, board-certified endocrinologist Dr. Cassie Smith sits down with nutrition pioneer Shana Hussin, RDN, for an open-hearted conversation about why the health trends we follow can sometimes backfire—especially when stress and burnout are involved. What You'll Hear: How fasting backfired during a season of high stress and adrenal exhaustion. The role of hormones like leptin and cortisol in regulating appetite, sleep, and metabolic balance. Why one-size-fits-all health plans fail, especially around hormone and gut health. Shana's personal pivot—from rigid fasting to listening to her body and honoring circadian rhythms. The healing power of grounding, gut support, and restoring rhythm over restriction.

James shares his powerful story of transformation on the carnivore diet. After nearly two years of commitment, he reversed prediabetes, lost 40 pounds, and eliminated chronic knee pain. In this episode, James explains: - Why modern nutrition guidelines are failing us - How an animal-based diet mirrors what our ancestors thrived on - The dangers of processed foods, despite “scientific” claims - Why you should trust your own results over conventional advice If you're struggling with weight, blood sugar, or chronic pain, this episode will inspire you to take back control of your health.

Episode 25:34 Knowing Your INSULIN Level Is As Important As Knowing Your Blood Sugar Level. Here's Why…   Most doctors, when ordering blood work for a patient, will include an A1C test. This is wise because an A1C test will reveal what a person's blood sugar has been, on average, over the previous three months. Ideally, your A1C score should be below 5.7 (my preference is for it to be 5.4 or less). A score between 5.7 and 6.4 reflects Prediabetes, while a score of 6.5 or above is considered to be Diabetic. But there's a problem with this: A person's A1C score is NOT the only indicator of blood sugar issues. Or, stated another way, a person can have a normal A1C score and still have SEVERE blood sugar issues. How? By having elevated Insulin levels! On this episode I share the story of a patient of mine whose blood sugar levels were okay… but his Insulin levels were through the roof! In fact, his Insulin levels were so high that he was, in my opinion, a walking time bomb. However, because he had his Insulin levels tested… something MOST doctors don't do… we were able to identify this problem and address it accordingly. Be sure to give this episode a good listen as understanding the role of Insulin, and the importance of having it tested, is critically important for anyone who cares about their health.  And, as always, please share it with a friend.

Dr. Maurer shares his personal journey of reversing prediabetes and provides actionable insights on diet, exercise, and maintaining a balance between endurance and weight training to optimize health. The conversation then shifts to Dr. Maurer's approach to his Parkinson's diagnosis. With a focus on information, community, and proactive measures, he details how he has adapted his lifestyle to slow the progression of this neurodegenerative disease. Hope you enjoy.

Episode Description: In today's episode (originally recorded as an Instagram Live), I'm answering some of your most pressing questions about insulin resistance and the buzz around GLP-1 medications—through the lens of real healing, root cause solutions, and God's design for the body. We're talking about: Why you might still have insulin resistance even if your labs look “normal” What actually happens when insulin is high—even if your blood sugar isn't How long it takes to reverse insulin resistance (and what most people get wrong) Why some people struggle with insulin resistance even when they're not overweight What GLP-1 is, and why it affects hunger and fat loss How to naturally support GLP-1 function without meds What happens when you stop taking medications like Ozempic or Mounjaro And the truth about whether GLP-1 meds fix root issues or just mask symptoms Plus: I'm sharing the exact free resources and tools I use with clients to naturally support insulin, blood sugar, and hormone balance—without gimmicks or restriction.
