Podcasts about side effects

Comedian Heather Shaw is back on Juicy Scoop, and we are jumping right into the Real Housewives, including our hilarious impressions as we dissect Vicki's wild behavior this yearWand if Ozempic is to blame. We also honor the legendary Dolly Parton, talking about her iconic, long-lasting marriage and how she was decades ahead of her time as a boss and a woman. Plus, Jelly Roll is not only looking slim, but he's venturing into stand-up comedy with jokes that include fat-shaming, so what is next for him? We get into the latest Jared Leto controversy with Heather's priceless hot take, break down Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's ongoing drama, then Jennifer Garner's complaints about navigating single motherhood post-Ben Affleck. Finally, we cover North West wanting a minimum-wage job despite her child-superstar lifestyle, analyze Callaway's head-scratching new ad, and question who approved this year's bizarre Target Halloween costumes, asking if corporate executives just desperately need to return to the office and actually speak to each other. -Right now, DripDrop is offering podcast listeners 20% off your first order.

Lifestyle medicine expert and family nurse practitioner John Manna returns to NP Pulse: The Voice of the Nurse Practitioner® to speak about the many exciting developments taking place in the world of GLP-1s. Manna explains the connection between a GLP-1 regimen and therapeutic lifestyle interventions; addresses some concerns he has seen in his practice regarding side effects related to GLP-1 use; and speaks about what health care providers can expect to see in the near future when it comes to these life-changing medications.

This week Kristin and I get into "Ozempic face," which has been all over social media, and I break down what's actually happening medically when people lose facial fat quickly on GLP-1 medications. Kristin gets grossed out the moment I bring up orbital fat, so we go down a whole rabbit hole about fat pads, blepharoplasty, and why your eyes need that squishy cushion behind them. I also share something newer in ophthalmology: GLP-1 medications are now considered a rare but real risk factor for a type of vision loss called ischemic optic neuropathy. Then we get into a story from a Cake concert I took our kids to while Kristin was out of town, where our teenage daughter and her friend somehow knew every word to a Black Sabbath cover better than half the adults in the crowd (genuine proud dad moment). After the break, I keep working on my medical Spanish with more phrases sent in by a listener, and Kristin does her best to correct my pronunciation.  Takeaways: "Ozempic face" refers to the hollowing and sagging that can happen when someone loses facial fat quickly on GLP-1 medications, it's a side effect of rapid fat loss, not a direct effect of the drug itself. Facial fat loss on GLP-1s can also affect the fat pad behind the eye, which may contribute to a more sunken appearance around the eyes. GLP-1 medications are now considered a risk factor for ischemic optic neuropathy, a rare condition involving reduced blood flow to the optic nerve, though the overall risk remains very low. Orbital fat plays an important structural role in cushioning and supporting the eye, and its loss or migration can contribute to changes like under-eye bags or a sunken appearance. Learning key medical Spanish phrases, even imperfectly, can help physicians communicate more effectively with Spanish-speaking patients. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Apply to work with the MI team → https://muscleintelligence.com/apply Ryan Smith co-founded the first pharmacy in the United States to offer an extensive list of peptides — and he ran the synthesis floor himself. Preparative HPLC, mass spec, chemical synthesis, the lot. Which means he spent years watching the same two failures from the inside: the molecule that works beautifully at a small dose and stops working when someone doubles it, and the vial that looks identical to the real thing and isn't. He is not a peptide evangelist. Ask him about the compound he calls ten million times more potent than BDNF and he'll tell you why he doesn't take it. His argument here is quieter than most of what gets said about peptides, and harder to unhear afterward: the body is already a competent system, and nearly everything that goes wrong with these compounds comes from handing it more input than it needed. Why exogenous growth hormone removes a brake the secretagogues leave in place. Why ipamorelin became the standard despite releasing less growth hormone than the compounds it replaced. Why two vials of the same peptide, at the same purity, can behave completely differently. He would rather talk about what he refuses to make than what he's excited about — and by the end of the hour it's clear those are the same conversation. 5 Key Takeaways Why exogenous growth hormone removes a brake your body doesn't get back — and what CJC-1295, ipamorelin and tesamorelin do instead The reason ipamorelin became the clinical standard despite releasing less growth hormone than the compounds it replaced Why the same 500-microgram dose of oral BPC-157 works in one form and barely at all in another Why the peptide he calls 10 million times more potent than BDNF is the one he leaves out of his own stack What a clean HPLC mass spec report still can't tell you about what's in the vial — and why that one blind spot lands on your liver Chapters 0:00 Why Peptides Took a Century to Arrive 4:54 Specificity, Growth Hormone & the Scalpel Argument 16:22 Thymosin Alpha-1, Epitalon & Natural Testosterone 25:25 Mitochondrial Peptides & the Fat Loss Compounds 32:27 BPC-157: Repair, Dosing & the Salt Form Problem 35:46 Peptides for the Brain: FGL, Dihexa & Cerebrolysin 47:05 What He Takes, What He Refuses & Why 52:36 Side Effects, Purity & What's Really in the Vial Connect with Ryan X – https://x.com/ryansmithepiage LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-smith-lexington-ky/ TruDiagnostic – https://www.trudiagnostic.com

Ask almost anyone how Ozempic works and you'll hear the same answer: it slows your stomach down. Dr. Ken Brown says that's the magician's waving hand.In this solo episode, the board-certified gastroenterologist walks through the research showing that roughly 99% of GLP-1 weight loss happens in three regions of the brain - and that the gut accounts for less than 1%. Which means the nausea, bloating, and heartburn people white-knuckle through aren't the thing making them lose weight.He maps the actual mechanism: the hypothalamus, where a misfiring hunger neuron acts like a broken fuel light telling you the tank is empty when it's full. The mesolimbic system, where dopamine explains why you find room for a Crumbl cookie after a full dinner - and why fMRI scans of that reward circuit go dark once someone starts a GLP-1. And the brainstem's area postrema, the ancient poison-detection system these drugs quietly hijack to produce fullness and nausea.Then the part he sees in clinic every week: why the pylorus tightens, why the migrating motor complex stalls, why the fundus stretches, and how that combination pools acid at the top of the stomach and pushes it into the esophagus. Plus the trial data showing most stomachs return to normal emptying by around 16 weeks, why a PPI often doesn't fix GLP-1 heartburn, and what he does instead for patients ready to quit a medication their gut can't tolerate.In this episode:- Why "it slows your stomach" is a misdirection- Your body's own GLP-1, and why these drugs act like an Amber Alert instead- The three brain regions doing 99% of the work- The broken fuel light: AgRP, POMC, and lifelong hunger- Dopamine, the dessert tray, and why this isn't willpower- The fMRI studies that made it visible- What the drugs actually do to the stomach — and the bathtub with the plug in it- Tachyphylaxis: why it improves around 16 weeks- Long-term GLP-1 use and SIBO risk- How to keep the weight loss without the gut miseryChapters: 0:00 The misdirection · 3:21 How your own GLP-1 works · 4:38 Three brain regions · 9:35 The broken fuel light · 11:08 Why you find room for the cookie · 13:11 The fMRI studies · 15:01 What happens in the stomach · 17:21 The bathtub analogy · 19:56 The trials nobody talks about · 21:31 Why 16 weeks matters · 23:29 SIBO and long-term use · 23:58 You don't have to suffer · 30:10 Bringing it togetherEducational content only - not medical advice.

"They're really worried that radiation is going to be painful. So they come in for that first day of treatment very anxious. With our patients with brain cancer, we're using the masks on the table, and those masks are very tight and hold their heads very, very still. So they'll be very worried about being claustrophobic. We may start out the first day or two with a little bit of [lorazepam]. And they'll come to me and they'll say, 'This really hasn't been as bad as I thought it was going to be,'" ONS member Catherine McCluskey, BSN, RN, OCN®, ROCN™, radiation oncology staff nurse at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist in Winston-Salem, NC, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, who was the manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS at the time of the recording, during a conversation about radiation side effects in central nervous system (CNS) cancers.

Highlights From This Episode "With primary tumors—glioblastomas, astrocytoma, all of those types of cancerous primary CNS tumors, the tumors are not very well-defined. They have little tentacles that kind of go out, so doing something like Gamma Knife, which is very precise, is not as effective as an external beam because the external beam will deliver radiation to all those little tentacles that are out there in the brain. And with Gamma Knife, you really can't effectively do that." TS 2:34 "When we're doing radiation to the brain, fortunately there aren't that many acute toxicities involved. Sometimes they'll have some mild dermatitis. Usually, it's not very significant. They, like everyone else who gets radiation, will have fatigue. Usually once we get to the end of the second week of radiation, into the third week for our patients with primary CNS tumors—the hair loss—they'll start to notice hair loss just in the treatment area. But those are typical, the things that we've seen most. Sometimes we'll have patients who will experience some nausea, maybe a few headaches, but really the acute toxicities are not severe typically with our patients with brain tumors." TS 8:30 "[For] the fatigue, I tell patients to just listen to their bodies. We don't want them to be sedentary, and we want them to go out and continue living their lives. But I do warn them that the fatigue is pretty much common to all patients receiving radiation at various degrees, depending on the patient. I just tell them to do what they feel like doing, and then when they're tired to rest, and if they find themselves having a nap in the afternoon, that's okay." TS 13:51 "What I find with these patients in particular is that a lot of times, their first symptoms related to any type of cancer are CNS symptoms from brain metastasis. Our patients with lung cancer or melanoma—they come in through the emergency room for altered mental status or seizures or something like that. They find a mass in their brain, and then they find a mass on their lung, or they find masses everywhere. Typically, they want to treat the brain masses first before they start them on any kind of systemic treatment. And so, they'll come to us, and they're in shock. Everything's happened very quickly. They haven't had a chance to really catch their breath. They're overwhelmed. And so I try to make sure they understand that everyone that they see here is part of their team and is with them through this journey and they're not alone." TS 25:36 "A couple of years ago, ONS put out an email asking for people to volunteer to do a delineation study about the feasibility of doing a radiation oncology certified nursing exam. And I, just on a whim, responded to that email. It's not something I've ever done before, and thinking that I would not be put on the team. … And I thought, 'I don't have enough experience, I don't know what I'm doing, and they won't choose me.' And lo and behold, they put me on this role delineation study. … I have met so many incredible nurses with all kinds of experience. I've learned so much. It has opened up a lot of things for me and it's been really exciting, so all I can do is say take advantage of those opportunities when they come. Don't think that you don't know enough, because you know more than you think you do." TS 32:38

In this segment of The Charlie James Show from Friday, August 7, 2026, host Charlie James voices strong skepticism regarding Big Pharma's push for a newly approved mRNA-based flu vaccine. Playing a news clip that details how mRNA technology allows for faster vaccine production compared to traditional egg-based methods, James sarcastically questions the claimed benefits and accuses health authorities of ignoring severe potential side effects such as anaphylaxis, myocarditis, pericarditis, Bell's palsy, and Guillain-Barré syndrome. He contends that public health authorities and the media act as though previous adverse reactions were forgotten, referencing media reports of people collapsing after receiving mRNA shots. Additionally, James shares a personal experiment where he prompted ChatGPT about mRNA vaccine side effects, claiming the chatbot provided no answer, which he interprets as censorship. Concluding the segment, he expresses deep distrust in the FDA, arguing that regulatory agencies rely heavily on pharmaceutical companies' self-reported data and focus primarily on marketing claims rather than ensuring true safety.

For most of the last forty years, irritable bowel syndrome was treated as a problem of the gut alone. The idea that the brain plays a central role took decades to gain acceptance, and it remains contested today.In this episode of The Mind-Gut Conversation, Dr. Mayer is joined by Dr. Erin Mauney, a pediatric gastroenterologist and researcher at Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital, who has completed one of the first clinical trials of psilocybin-assisted therapy for patients with treatment-resistant IBS.They discuss why a compound acting primarily on the brain might change how the gut is experienced, what happens when the brain's prediction machinery becomes locked into a cycle of pain and anticipation, and why the therapy surrounding the dosing sessions may matter as much as the molecule itself.The conversation also takes on the harder questions. How do you run a placebo-controlled trial when every participant knows they received the drug? Can the psychedelic experience be engineered out of psychedelic medicine, and what is lost if it is? And what can practices used ritually for millennia still teach a reductionist Western model of care?This is early-stage science, and Dr. Mauney is refreshingly clear about the limits of what is currently known. It is also a glimpse at what the next chapter of brain-gut medicine might look like.Topics discussed include:• Why IBS is best understood as a disorder of gut-brain interaction• How the brain's predictive coding can become locked into chronic pain• What psilocybin-assisted therapy actually involves, session by session• Whether the psychedelic experience itself is essential to the benefit• The placebo problem in psychedelic trials, and why it may be unsolvable• How long the benefits appear to last after treatment ends• Where psychedelic research in gastroenterology may be headedThis is a careful, evidence-based conversation for anyone interested in IBS, chronic pain, and the future of brain-gut medicine.Chapters:0:00 - Introduction3:23 - IBS as a Brain-Gut Disorder7:40 - Entering Psychedelic Research13:22 - How Psilocybin Could Affect the Gut15:43 - Inside the Trial17:50 - The Brain and Pain Prediction21:18 - Side Effects and Patient Experience25:40 - Does the Psychedelic Experience Matter?29:57 - Ritual and Western Medicine32:15 - The Placebo Question36:33 - Combining Therapies39:10 - Brain Imaging40:56 - Practical Challenges44:07 - Durability of Benefits47:23 - Overlap With Other Conditions49:28 - Where the Research Goes Next54:11 - Looking Ahead

You might think the win on a GLP-1 like Ozempic or Mounjaro is the number dropping on your scale, but I need you to ask a better question, not how much you're losing, but what kind. In some studies, 40 to 60% of the weight people lost on these drugs came from lean muscle, not fat, and that's a metabolic loss that costs you your strength and your ability to keep the weight off. These are the most powerful fat-loss tools we've ever had, but a tool without a protocol is just potential. Hit your protein and lift, or you're trading muscle for a number you'll spend years trying to earn back.

Nearly 50% of mortgages in the U.S. flow through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac—but a push from the Trump Administration could sell shares of these government enterprises and put them in the hands of the public. The side effects could be significant to those getting or refinancing a mortgage—from interest rates to regulations.  Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac alone take up about half of the mortgage market. The reason you can get a 30-year loan, a lower interest rate, and do it all with standardized regulations is largely thanks to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. So, if these enterprises are sold on the private market with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae IPO-ing, would it put so much privatized pressure on the mortgage market that it could begin to break? Today, we're getting into the major consequences from a sale of Fannie and Freddie—currently owned almost entirely by the government. With a $250B payday sitting in limbo, the government could be pushed to sell off the enterprises that enabled average Americans to buy houses. The question is, should it even happen? In This Episode We Cover The Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac IPO possibilities and the side effects it would have on mortgage rates and regulations  Why the government took over Fannie and Freddie and whether re-privatizing them will encourage these enterprises to do anything to profit The massive payday that could come out of a selective sale of Fannie and Freddie Pros and cons of a sale going through and whether Dave thinks it's a smart idea And So Much More!

In this replay episode, we interview obesity medicine specialist Dr. Alexandra Sowa, author of The Ozempic Revolution. The discussion demystifies GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, semaglutide, and tirzepatide, explaining how they work, who they are designed for, and why they represent a major shift in the treatment of obesity and metabolic disease. Dr. Sowa emphasizes that obesity is not a failure of willpower, but a complex chronic disease driven by genetics, hormones, metabolism, and environmental factors.  Our discussion moves beyond the basics of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and semaglutide to explore practical questions many patients have: *How much do these medications cost? * Will insurance cover them? * What are the side effects? * How long do you need to stay on treatment? * And what lifestyle changes are essential for lasting success? Dr. Sowa explains that GLP-1 medications are powerful tool, but they are not a magic solution. Sustainable weight loss and improved metabolic health require proper nutrition, strength training, medical supervision, and a long-term commitment to healthy habits.

"Think about what organs lie in the radiation field, and anything that lies in that radiation field is likely going to have some potential temporary—hopefully temporary—side effects. If you think about the pelvis, the things that live in there are the bladder, urethra, some bowel, rectum, reproductive organs, skin, some lymph nodes. And so, all of those things could potentially have associated side effects," ONS member Kayla Kafka-Peterson, BSN, RN, ROCN™, nurse navigator and leader in the brachytherapy and peri-anesthesia programs at UCLA Health, in Los Angeles, CA, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about radiation side effects in cancers of the pelvis.

LDR stands for low-dose-rate radiation, which is the older type of brachytherapy, but it is still very much practiced today. And it is where we put radioactive seeds directly into the tumor or tumor resection bed, depending on what you're treating. And those pieces of radioactive material, such as iodine-125 or palladium-103, those will give off radiation over time and treat the area that they are in, and they will place more or less seeds into the tumor, depending on that patient's needs and their anatomy." TS 3:26 "The most common [side effect] for external beam is bladder irritation—cystitis. It can be some burning, some frequency, some urgency, and it can often mimic a UTI [urinary tract infection]. We also have to make sure our patients do not have a UTI. Most of the time they don't, but we don't want to miss that. Once a UTI has been ruled out, the mucosa in the bladder and the urethra, it has a very high cell turnover rate. And things with a high cellular turnover rate like mucosal linings, they respond to radiation very quickly. They also heal very quickly, but they start to break down quite quickly during radiation." TS 16:15 "For the bladder, some things that we can teach the patients … to keep their urinary system as comfortable as possible during treatment. We really encourage hydration because the more hydrated they are, the more diluted their urine will be and the less acidic it will be. As those tissues start to respond to the radiation, they will become, for lack of a better word, a little bit raw. And if you think of something acidic going on something that is raw, it's going to burn, and these patients do get burning. And so by promoting hydration, their urine becomes less acidic; it doesn't burn as much when they do urinate. And I find a lot of patients who are experiencing the urinary side effects, they don't want to drink because they're afraid to urinate. And it actually makes the burning worse because their urine gets ultra-concentrated." TS 22:29 "Anybody who has a vagina, who receives treatment to the pelvis—it doesn't matter if it's for vaginal cancer or if it's for bowel or rectal—if they have received radiation to the pelvis, they are at risk for vaginal stenosis and adhesions. And this, of course, can be more pronounced in patients who have a higher dose in the vagina or a larger surface volume of the vagina treated. But over time, that tissue, even long after radiation is done, will undergo late changes where they will have continued scar formation, and it starts to lose its elasticity and its functionality. And at times it can stick to itself, causing these adhesions." TS 28:15 "I think a common misconception is that you cannot safely work around radiation. That is something that I have heard a lot. In certain regions of the world, the nurses actually report that they have been having trouble getting good applicants because nobody wants to work in radiation because they think that you'll get radiated, that it's not safe. We've really tried to make radiation safety a big part of our teaching to show that actually, you can safely work around radiation with today's technology." TS 41:43

EPISODE 147: Johnny Manchild And The Poor Bastards' new album, SIDE EFFECTS, is due out on July 24th and is produced, engineered, mixed, and arranged by Johnny Manchild himself. The new release expands their sound from its solid base of alt-rock with a power pop punk influence and piano to include heavier guitars, a full horn section, and hints of industrial noise, along with rapid-fire vocals.  In support of SIDE EFFECTS, Johnny Manchild And The Poor Bastards will kick off an extensive United States tour in their hometown of Oklahoma City, OK on album release date, next Friday, July 24th. Since 2016, Johnny Manchild has led an ever-evolving musical lineup, affectionately dubbed The Poor Bastards. The collective has produced five albums, a multitude of singles and videos and has participated in numerous tours. Manchild's genesis took place in Oklahoma City, where at the ripe age of 8, he began to hone his musical abilities in a cover band before joining his first original band at 10 years old. At 12, he began building a rudimentary home studio and teaching himself all the instruments needed to record his early attempts at songs. He continued cutting his teeth by performing in punk bands and recording bands in the OKC area, until graduating high school and joining the US Army Band. Shortly after the completion of his basic training, he enrolled in the jazz performance program at the University of Central Oklahoma, refining his skills until his efforts resulted in his debut album, VALENCIA, in 2017. From his first release, Johnny Manchild has attracted a devout following who will literally follow him anywhere. With each offering the numbers have grown, and the word of Manchild has spread. In 2024, he self-booked 52 fan-hosted house shows in 3 days, touring over six weeks throughout America and Canada to meet his fans where they were. manchild.band Contact us: makingsoundpodcast.comFollow on Instagram: @makingsoundpodcastFollow on Threads: @jannkloseJoin our Facebook GroupPlease support the show with a donation, thank you for listening!

A Note from James:I'm doing a big experiment in my life.I recently started taking a GLP-1—tirzepatide, one of the so-called weight-loss drugs. But I didn't start taking it specifically for weight loss. I had some blood work done for the first time in a long time, and there was a small indication that I might be pre-diabetic. My doctor suggested trying tirzepatide, and I wanted to understand what I was getting into.The first person I wanted to talk to was Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators. Charles has been taking a GLP-1 for about two years, and he says it has changed his life. He has lost around 45 pounds, but what interested me most was not just the weight loss. It was the habit change.Charles explains that GLP-1s can quiet what people now call “food noise”—the constant background pull toward eating even when you are not actually hungry. When that noise quiets down, something interesting happens: you get a window where your old habits become more malleable.That is the key idea of this conversation. The drug may help you eat less, but the bigger opportunity is that it gives you a chance to build new routines around food, exercise, alcohol, sleep, and identity. And if you build those habits while the window is open, those habits may continue even after you stop taking the medication.We talk about food noise, cravings, the habit loop, keystone habits, stated versus revealed preferences, placebo effects, alcohol, sleep, exercise, blood sugar, identity, and whether GLP-1s are a lifelong drug or a tool for changing who you become.Episode Description:James is at the beginning of a GLP-1 experiment. Charles Duhigg is two years in.In this conversation, Charles explains what he has learned from taking tirzepatide and from studying GLP-1s through the lens of habit formation. He describes the first phase of public understanding around these medications as weight loss. Phase two, he argues, is about behavior change.The central concept is “food noise.” Charles describes it as the background craving that turns a basket of fries into an almost automatic behavior. You may not even notice the noise until it goes away. Once it quiets, the cue that normally triggers the habit loop weakens. That creates a temporary window where new habits can be built.James and Charles use the GLP-1 experience to revisit the basic habit loop: cue, routine, reward. They talk about why habits feel automatic, why willpower is often the wrong tool, and why successful behavior change depends on identifying the cue and replacing the routine while still satisfying the underlying reward.Charles also introduces the idea of GLP-1s as a catalyst for keystone habits. Eating less can make exercise easier. Drinking less can improve sleep. Better sleep can improve focus. Focus can improve work. One changed habit can set off a chain reaction.The conversation then becomes more philosophical: Who are we if one part of the brain says “I want to be healthy,” while another part of the brain keeps revealing different preferences through action? Charles explains the difference between stated preferences and revealed preferences, and how repeated behavior can shift identity.This is not a conversation about taking GLP-1s casually. It is a conversation about using a medical intervention deliberately, under appropriate medical guidance, as a chance to change the patterns that shape daily life.Editorial Note:This episode discusses prescription medications, including tirzepatide and semaglutide, as well as personal experiences with GLP-1 drugs. It should not be treated as medical advice.GLP-1 medications can have side effects and risks, including gastrointestinal symptoms, dosing concerns, and contraindications for some patients. They should be used only under the supervision of a qualified medical professional. Any decision to start, stop, adjust, or combine medications should be made with a clinician.James and Charles also discuss personal experience, habit change, appetite, alcohol cravings, and identity. Individual responses to these medications vary.What You'll Learn:Why Charles believes GLP-1s are entering “phase two”: not just weight loss, but habit change.What “food noise” feels like—and why people often do not notice it until it disappears.How GLP-1s may create a temporary “habit window” where old routines become easier to change.Why the habit loop—cue, routine, reward—matters when trying to change eating behavior.Why people often regain weight after stopping GLP-1s if they have not built new habits.How keystone habits can create a chain reaction across food, exercise, alcohol, sleep, and focus.Why micro habits may work better than a full lifestyle overhaul.How stated preferences and revealed preferences shape identity.Why eating less can make exercise easier, and why exercise can reinforce healthier choices.Why tracking behavior may be essential while taking a GLP-1.How placebo, alter egos, and rituals may influence identity and performance.Why the goal is not just losing weight, but becoming the kind of person whose habits support health.Timestamped Chapters:[03:36] James Begins His GLP-1 ExperimentJames explains his early experience, including confusion between medication side effects and a bout of COVID.[04:16] Charles's Two-Year ExperienceCharles describes taking tirzepatide, losing roughly 45 pounds, and why the biggest changes came months into the process.[05:38] Phase One vs. Phase Two of GLP-1sPhase one was about appetite and weight loss. Phase two, Charles argues, is about habits that can last.[06:42] The Habit WindowHow GLP-1s can quiet food noise and create a period where eating habits become more malleable.[07:21] COVID, Side Effects, and Early SignalsJames explains why his first few weeks were hard to interpret and why he is still figuring out what the medication is doing.[09:00] What Food Noise Actually Feels LikeCharles uses the example of a basket of fries to explain cravings, cues, and automatic eating.[09:55] The Habit Loop: Cue, Routine, RewardCharles revisits the framework from The Power of Habit and applies it directly to food cravings.[10:42] How GLP-1s Interrupt the CueThe fries are still there, but the craving does not activate in the same way.[11:40] What GLP-1s Do in the Body and BrainCharles explains what researchers know about gastric emptying, glucagon-like peptides, and what remains uncertain about the brain.[12:43] What Happens When You StopWhy the medication alone may not be enough if old habits return after discontinuation.[13:36] Pleasure, Food, Alcohol, and AnhedoniaCharles discusses reduced pleasure from food and alcohol, while separating clinical findings from broader claims about losing joy in life.[15:54] Why Charles Stayed With ItEarly changes were not dramatic weight loss, but a growing feeling that eating became more of a choice.[16:40] Eating as a Keystone HabitHow changing food behavior can trigger changes in exercise, alcohol, sleep, focus, and work.[19:31] Why Structure MattersCharles explains why tracking and guided habit systems can help people see patterns they might miss on their own.[20:32] What Changes Physically Over TimeSlower stomach emptying, feeling full longer, more stable blood sugar, and gradual changes in appetite.[21:43] Stated Preferences vs. Revealed PreferencesWhy one part of the brain says “I want to change,” while another part watches what you actually do.[23:22] Identity Change and Habit FormationHow repeated behavior can teach the brain, “I am the kind of person who eats this way” or “I am the kind of person who exercises.”[24:16] Placebo, Belief, and Becoming the Person You Want to BeJames and Charles explore whether placebo effects may work partly by changing identity.[28:07] Alter Egos, Athletes, and RitualsThe conversation turns to Kobe Bryant, Michael Phelps, and how pre-performance routines can cue a desired identity.[29:15] Start With Micro HabitsCharles explains why small behavior changes can compound more effectively than trying to overhaul an entire life at once.[30:40] Charles's First Micro HabitsDrinking less, eating fewer fries, stopping when full, and choosing healthier meals without relying on willpower.[31:24] Feeling Full for the First TimeCharles describes the surprising experience of leaving food unfinished because his body had had enough.[33:03] Why the Stomach ShrinksThe medication does not shrink the stomach directly; eating less over time changes how much food the body expects.[33:21] Why Slower Stomach Emptying HelpsJames asks why a weight-loss drug would slow digestion instead of speeding metabolism.[35:00] The Cumulative EffectWhy the most visible changes often appear after several months, once habits, body size, and identity begin reinforcing each other.[37:03] Is a GLP-1 a Lifelong Drug?Charles explains what research and personal experience suggest about stopping, restarting, and maintaining results.[38:56] James's Health MotivationJames explains that his motivation is not primarily weight loss, but a desire to respond to possible pre-diabetic markers.[39:36] Why Attitude Is Not EnoughCharles argues that wanting to be healthy helps, but habit change still requires structure.[40:02] What Changed at HomeCharles explains how his family's food did not need to change, even though his own choices and portions did.[41:02] Weight, Body Composition, and Pre-DiabetesWhy blood sugar, insulin resistance, fat, and muscle matter more than the scale alone.[42:38] Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and What Comes NextJames and Charles compare different GLP-1 medications and discuss how newer drugs may work through multiple receptors.[44:27] Will Charles Stop Taking It?Charles explains why he may eventually discontinue the medication, but values having more choice over weight and behavior.[45:24] Blood Work, Snoring, and Health MarkersCharles describes improvements in lab results, cholesterol, snoring, and overall health.[46:31] Who Are We, Really?James and Charles talk about identity, brain chemistry, sugar, alcohol, cravings, and the substances that shape behavior.[48:32] Choosing the Person You Want to BecomeCharles explains how better self-awareness can help people change habits deliberately rather than being pulled by cravings.[49:00] Tracking the ExperimentCharles advises James to track food, feelings, and behavior so he can notice changes that might otherwise be invisible.Additional Resources:Charles Duhigg Official WebsiteThe Power of Habit by Charles DuhiggSupercommunicators by Charles DuhiggNoom's GLP-1 Companion / Habit Formation AnnouncementFDA: Zepbound Approval for Chronic Weight ManagementFDA: Concerns With Unapproved GLP-1 Drugs Used for Weight LossBMJ: Weight Regain After Stopping Weight-Loss MedicationTodd Herman — The Alter Ego EffectSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey Heal Squad! Today we're back with Full House's Dave Coulier (yes, Joey Gladstone himself)and this time he's really opening up about what he thinks may have contributed to not one, but two different cancers. Somewhere in the middle of treatment, Dave found himself asking a question most of us never think to ask until it's too late: what have I been exposing my body to, every single day? That one question sent him down a rabbit hole…. reading ingredient labels, questioning everything under his own sink, rethinking what's actually on his plate, and realizing how genuinely overwhelming it is to figure out what "healthy" even means anymore. He breaks it down into a simple 3-step framework for vetting what you bring into your home, and honestly, you'll want to hear exactly what it is. Dave also gets into the surprising products he swapped out first after his diagnosis, and why he believes reducing your toxic load doesn't require perfection,  just a few consistent, everyday swaps, which is exactly what led him to build AWEAR Market in the first place.And perhaps most powerfully, Dave gets candid about where he is today. Months after treatment ended, he opens up about the side effects he's still navigating from chronic throat pain and changes to his voice to the unexpected ways cancer continues to impact his body, his marriage, and everyday life. He also shares the incredible support that carried him through it all: his wife Melissa and the hockey community to the unforgettable day he learned he was cancer-free... the very same day his grandson was born.If you've ever wondered where to start on your own health journey, or what life after cancer really looks like, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Healthy Living Doesn't Have to Be All-or-Nothing: Dave shares why he and his wife Melissa live by the 80/20 rule, explaining how consistency, not perfection, has helped him build healthier habits that are realistic, sustainable, and guilt-free. Your Home Could Be Impacting Your Health More Than You Think: After cancer, Dave began questioning everything—from toothpaste and deodorant to food dyes, plastics, clothing, and household products. He shares the simple ingredient "red flags" he now looks for and the everyday swaps that helped him feel more in control of his health. The Side Effects Nobody Warns You About: Months after finishing treatment, Dave reveals the lingering effects of cancer—from chronic pain and difficulty eating to changes in his voice and intimacy—and why recovery doesn't end when the treatments do.

Fifty years ago the U.S. government classified it alongside heroin: no accepted medical use, high potential for abuse, illegal in most of the world. The peer-reviewed data now coming out of Johns Hopkins, Imperial College, and Nature tells a different story, one that has some of the most credentialled neuroscientists alive rethinking how the brain heals. In this episode, Louisa breaks down exactly what psilocybin does to your neurons, why it works where antidepressants stall for decades, and where the research is heading right now. She walks through the default mode network, the self-referential system that turns rigid and hyperactive in depression, and the 2024 Nature study that described psilocybin's effect on it as "massive" disruption. You'll hear how a single dose drove a measurable jump in dendritic spine density within 24 hours, why psilocin binds the TRKB receptor 300 times more strongly than any conventional antidepressant, and how Robin Carhart-Harris's head-to-head trial against escitalopram produced more than double the remission rate. Then she turns to addiction, where psilocybin-assisted therapy reached an 80% smoking abstinence rate at six months in the Johns Hopkins pilot, more than double the best medication available today. She covers the risks the drug-war narrative leaves out, the hard contraindications around psychosis and cardiac history, the April 2026 executive order that accelerated federal review, and why the quality of the subjective experience, measured on the Mystical Experience Questionnaire, may matter to the outcome as much as the molecule itself. You'll also hear about the desynchronization event and what fills the space when the network goes offline, BDNF and how it stacks up against high-intensity exercise, the alcohol and opioid data, HPPD, Australia's 2023 reclassification, Oregon and Colorado's state access frameworks, and why set and setting may be active ingredients in how the treatment works.

GLP-1 Side Effects, Gut Microbiome & Brain Health, Toxoplasmosis Risks, and the Dirty Dozen Explained Plasma Acetate Emerges As Key Gut-Brain Messenger In Older Adults A study published in Nature Communications examined how gut bacteria relate to plasma acetic acid, a short-chain fatty acid produced when gut microbes ferment fiber, and found that higher acetate levels tracked with lower triglycerides, higher HDL cholesterol, lower body fat, larger thalamic brain volume, and stronger performance on judgment-related cognitive tasks. Mediation analysis showed acetate acts as a direct link between specific gut bacteria, including Oscillibacter and Coprococcus, and these health outcomes. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this elevates fiber fermentation, not fermented beverages, as the real lever for gut-brain health, and separates the evidence-backed mechanism from the kombucha-as-shortcut assumption. Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s43856-026-01566-x ~~ GLP-1 Drugs Linked To Sharp Rise In Smell And Taste Disturbances A JAMA Otolaryngology cohort study tracking over 438,000 GLP-1 users against matched controls found a 48% higher risk of new smell or taste disturbances over two years, with smell disturbances up 81% and taste disturbances up 52%. Diagnoses included anosmia, parosmia, and parageusia, with researchers pointing to GLP-1 receptor activity in the olfactory bulb and other chemosensory pathways as a possible mechanism. Host Dave Asprey unpacks why this signal got buried under muscle loss and gut motility headlines, and what it means for anyone currently on or considering GLP-1 therapy.

Ocular toxoplasmosis is the most common intra-ocular infection worldwide, and an estimated 190,000 babies are born with congenital toxoplasmosis each year, concentrated in low-resource regions. Despite the scale, there is still no vaccine and no standard global treatment protocol. Host Dave Asprey explains why common, quiet health threats get chronically underfunded compared to dramatic outbreaks, and what pregnant listeners specifically should know about exposure risk. Source: https://www.sciencealert.com/parasite-affecting-1-in-3-people-is-a-serious-risk-to-human-health-scientists-warn ~~ Yale-Oxford Data Shows Exercise May Boost Mental Health More Than A Raise An analysis of CDC survey data from over 1.2 million U.S. adults found that people who exercise regularly report 1.5 to 2 fewer poor mental health days per month than non-exercisers, a benefit comparable to earning about $25,000 more per year. The data also revealed an inverted-U relationship, with optimal benefits at three to five sessions a week and diminishing or reversed returns at extreme volumes. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why moderate, consistent movement outperforms income as a mental health lever, and why overtraining carries its own psychological cost.

The move reflects a broader trend of major consumer-health conglomerates acquiring practitioner-trusted, lab-forward wellness brands. Host Dave Asprey weighs in on what happens to product quality and innovation when founder-led, science-first supplement companies get absorbed into shareholder-first parent corporations.

Individuals varied widely in how many of these compounds their gut could actually process, and in mouse studies, strawberries reduced colitis activity only in mice with an intact microbiome. Host Dave Asprey explains why the plant itself isn't the active ingredient, your bacteria are, and connects the findings to this year's Environmental Working Group Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen lists to help listeners decide where organic actually matters.

Host Dave Asprey connects clinical research, large cohort studies, mechanistic biology, and industry news into practical frameworks for improving gut health, brain performance, and long-term resilience.

Hey Heal Squad! We are back with Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford from Harvard Medical School & Massachusetts General Hospital, and we are picking up right where we left off about GLP-1s. Dr. Fatima gets into the stuff people are most confused about. She explains why your body is literally wired to fight back every time you try to lose weight, and why that is not a personal failure. It is just biology. She also gets real about side effects (no sugarcoating here!)  and breaks down the very real risk of muscle loss on these medications, plus she shares the exact cardio-to-strength ratio she recommends for every decade of life. Yes, by decade.Then Maria finally asks the question the whole episode has been building toward...who is a GLP-1 actually for? Dr. Fatima answers it directly and also breaks down the difference between single, dual, and triple agonists — including a clinical trial showing nearly 30% total body weight loss that could change everything we know about treating obesity. And Patreon members, we have a bonus episode waiting for you! Dr. Fatima gets into something we did not cover in the main episodes: why you should think twice before ordering GLP-1s through Instagram. It's worth a listen!  HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Your Body Isn't Broken,  It's Doing Exactly What It Was Designed to Do: Dr. Fatima explains why the body defends its weight set point with everything it has. It isn't a failure of willpower. It is biology. Understanding this changes how you think about these medications. The Muscle Loss Nobody's Warning You About: GLP-1 medications can cause you to lose lean muscle — not just fat. Dr. Fatima breaks down the specific strength-to-cardio ratio she recommends for every decade of life. This is the practical guidance that should come with every prescription but rarely does. Obesity Is a Disease: Dr. Fatima  shares what it is like to be ridiculed and stigmatized for caring for patients with obesity and makes the case that the language we use around weight has real consequences for real people. It is a reminder that compassion and science are not mutually exclusive. They are both required.

GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy have been linked to serious vision concerns, including diabetic retinopathy and optic nerve damage that can result in lasting vision loss Research suggests the highest risk of sudden vision loss may occur within the first year of starting these drugs, with symptoms sometimes appearing overnight without pain or warning Case reports document that even healthy adults using GLP-1 drugs for weight loss — with no history of diabetes or eye disease — have experienced lasting vision loss Sudden changes in vision such as blurriness, blind spots, or loss of color perception may be early warning signs of optic nerve damage. Recognizing them quickly can support timely evaluation and care Lifestyle approaches such as reducing vegetable oils, choosing the right carbs, and supporting gut microbes may help support healthy metabolism
