Food as Medicine: Why Medical Nutrition Therapy and Medically Tailored Meals Belong in Modern Healthcare: Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin argues that food should be treated with the same rigor as medication through medical nutrition therapy (MNT) and “diet prescriptions,” integrating nutrition into treatment plans rather than leaving it as optional advice. She cites evidence that medically tailored meals (MTMs) can improve outcomes and reduce costs, including a Health Affairs simulation estimating $23.7B in first-year net savings nationwide and a Nature Medicine analysis of a Massachusetts Medicaid demonstration (2020–2023) showing MTM recipients had 31% fewer hospitalizations, 20% fewer emergency visits, and $3,433 lower total healthcare costs, offsetting 98% of program costs. She discusses food insecurity, expanding Medicaid coverage via Section 1115 waivers, EHR integration, and how MTMs support adherence for conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, depression, and IBS (including low FODMAP).
Hot flashes, blood sugar swings, brain fog... is it menopause, diabetes, or both?In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Steve Edelman is joined by renowned menopause expert Dr. Cindy Stuenkel, endocrinologist and Professor Emerita at UC San Diego, for an insightful conversation about how menopause affects women living with diabetes. Together, they explain why menopause is much more than a normal stage of aging. It's a major metabolic transition that can influence blood sugar management, insulin resistance, heart health, sleep, mood, and overall quality of life. The conversation explores what actually happens during perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause, why hormonal fluctuations can make glucose management more challenging, and how continuous glucose monitoring can help distinguish hot flashes from hypoglycemia. Dr. Edelman and Dr. Stuenkel also discuss the latest evidence on hormone replacement therapy, newer non-hormonal treatment options, the importance of protecting heart health, and practical strategies to help women navigate this stage of life with greater confidence. Whether you're living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, approaching menopause, currently experiencing it, or supporting someone who is, this episode provides practical guidance and evidence-based information to help you feel more prepared. Key TopicsWhat is perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause?How hormonal changes affect blood sugar and insulin resistanceWhy menopause can increase glucose variability in women with diabetesThe difference between hot flashes and hypoglycemiaHow continuous glucose monitoring can help during menopauseMetabolic changes that occur during the menopause transitionWhy cardiovascular risk increases after menopauseThe connection between menopause, weight gain, and abdominal fatGLP-1 medications and menopauseThe latest recommendations on hormone replacement therapyNew non-hormonal treatments for hot flashesSleep, mood, brain fog, and quality of life during menopauseHeart health strategies for women living with diabetesHow partners can better support someone going through menopauseTrusted menopause resources and when to seek medical care Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, expert conversations, and the latest advances in diabetes care to help people living with diabetes live healthier, more confident lives. ★ Support this podcast ★
Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
Insulin-resistant patients with type 2 diabetes who require high-dose therapy have long lacked a rapid-acting option concentrated enough for compact insulin pumps. New pharmacokinetic data on an ultra-rapid U-500 insulin aspart, alongside additional phase 3 results for a combined once-weekly insulin icodec-semaglutide regimen, both aim to close persistent gaps in insulin delivery for this population. In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, reviewed two studies addressing unmet needs in insulin therapy for type 2 diabetes.The investigational agent AT278 is a highly concentrated insulin aspart formulated at 500 units/mL, distinct from existing U-500 regular human insulin, which behaves more like an intermediate-acting product. In a single-center, randomized, double-blind, crossover euglycemic clamp study spanning body mass index from 25 to 38 kg/m², AT278 produced significantly faster absorption and a greater glucose-lowering effect within the first hour versus both standard U-100 insulin aspart and U-500 regular human insulin. The ultra-rapid pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile held consistent across the BMI range studied.Current U-500 regular insulin requires dosing 30 minutes before meals while simultaneously serving as basal and prandial coverage, complicating use in automated insulin delivery systems and limiting compatibility with smaller-volume pumps. A concentrated, rapid-onset formulation could allow patients with high insulin requirements to use compact pumps and extended-wear infusion sets without the absorption problems tied to large-volume subcutaneous depots. Drawn from an early-phase study, the findings position AT278 as a potential first ultra-rapid option for prandial dosing in this population, though regulatory approval for pump use remains undefined.Separately, the phase 3 COMBINE 4 trial evaluated a fixed combination of once-weekly insulin icodec (Awiqli) and semaglutide, known as IcoSema, against once-daily insulin glargine U-100 in 485 adults with type 2 diabetes and baseline A1C above 8%. Over 40 weeks, IcoSema reduced A1C by 3.32 percentage points versus 2.44 points with glargine, a between-group difference of 0.88 percentage points, while producing a 0.79 kg weight reduction compared with a 3.81 kg gain with glargine. Time in range reached 79.8% with IcoSema versus 64.5% with glargine, consistent with the mechanistic rationale of pairing glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonism with basal insulin to limit postprandial excursions.These results build on earlier COMBINE 1 through 3 data, which showed IcoSema achieving noninferior or superior A1C reduction, superior weight outcomes, and lower hypoglycemia rates versus comparators. A single weekly injection combining basal insulin with a GLP-1 receptor agonist could reduce treatment burden and consolidate pharmacy copays, though semaglutide exposure remains capped by concurrent insulin titration, averaging 0.66 mg in COMBINE 4. Whether either agent reaches United States practice, including reported uncertainty around a domestic IcoSema launch, will determine their eventual role in managing insulin-resistant type 2 diabetes.
Cardiologist and electrophysiologist Dr. Gregory Marcus, chair of the American Heart Association scientific statement writing group, reveals evidence on coffee/caffeine and cardiovascular health. He discusses how earlier assumptions that caffeine triggers arrhythmias are complicated by genetics, individual risk factors, and mostly observational research. Marcus reviews randomized and observational findings: the CRAVE trial showed no increase in premature atrial contractions but more premature ventricular contractions on coffee days; a trial in post-cardioversion patients found less atrial fibrillation with daily coffee. Observational data suggest lower risks of type 2 diabetes, heart attack, stroke, and AFib among coffee drinkers, while heart failure risk may be lower at low intake but higher around 4–5 drinks/day. He cautions against extrapolating benefits to energy drinks, discusses additives like sugar, touches on alcohol, cannabis, Mediterranean/DASH diets, pollution, and evolving AFib treatments, wearables, and pacing/ablation technologies.

Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
Once-weekly basal insulin therapy has moved from clinical trial data to pharmacy shelves, offering clinicians a new option for patients who struggle with the daily burden of insulin injections. The shift addresses a persistent adherence problem in basal insulin therapy, where missed or inconsistent daily dosing undermines glycemic control.In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, discuss the pharmacy launch of insulin icodec (Awiqli), the first once-weekly basal insulin now available in the United States.The approval rests on data from approximately 4200 participants across the phase 2 and phase 3 ONWARDS program. In insulin-naive participants enrolled in ONWARDS 1, 3, and 5, insulin icodec produced superior reductions in hemoglobin A1c compared with once-daily basal insulin. Among participants switching from daily basal therapy in ONWARDS 2, icodec showed noninferior glycemic control alongside improved treatment satisfaction scores.Insulin icodec has also been studied in type 1 diabetes but did not receive approval in this population after trials showed higher rates of hypoglycemia relative to daily basal insulin. Additional studies in type 1 diabetes are ongoing, leaving open the possibility of future expansion beyond the current type 2 indication.Dosing requires new clinical habits, since insulin icodec is formulated as U-700, a concentration allowing a full week's dose to be delivered in a comfortable injection volume. Adjustments occur in 10-unit increments rather than the single-unit changes used with daily basal insulins, though the weekly total still translates into modest day-to-day changes of roughly one to two units. Patients switching from daily basal insulin require a loading dose, calculated by multiplying the total daily dose by 10.5, to reach steady state faster than a standard weekly conversion would allow.Titration follows fasting glucose. Clinicians add 20 units when readings exceed 130 mg/dL, maintain the dose between 80 and 130 mg/dL, and subtract 20 units below 80 mg/dL. Because increases and decreases are dosed in 20-unit blocks, most cycles are reassessed over two to four weeks rather than week to week.The reduced injection frequency carries particular relevance for older adults, caregivers, and patients whose adherence to daily regimens has proven inconsistent. As pharmacy access expands, coverage and prior authorization requirements will shape how quickly insulin icodec moves into routine practice, but early trial and satisfaction data point toward a meaningful shift in basal insulin management.

Have you or someone you know been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, only to discover later it was actually type 1? You're not alone.In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Steve Edelman is joined by Dr. Schaefer Boeder, endocrinologist, Medical Director of Paradigm Research, Associate Professor at UCSD, for an eye-opening discussion about LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)—one of the most commonly misdiagnosed conditions in diabetes. Together, they explain why so many adults are initially misdiagnosed with type 2 diabetes despite the warning signs that should raise suspicion for LADA, and why getting the correct diagnosis can dramatically change treatment and long-term outcomes.The conversation explores how LADA differs from both classic type 1 and type 2 diabetes, why the autoimmune process develops more slowly, and when antibody testing should be considered. Dr. Edelman and Dr. Boeder also discuss the importance of preserving beta cell function, the role of continuous glucose monitoring, advances in disease-modifying therapies, and why there has never been a more exciting time for research in adults who developed type 1 diabetes later in life. Whether you've been diagnosed with LADA, care for someone who has, or simply want to better understand adult-onset autoimmune diabetes, this episode provides practical guidance and hope for more accurate diagnoses in the future.Key Topics:What is LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)?Why LADA is so often mistaken for type 2 diabetesCommon signs that may point to a misdiagnosisHow LADA differs from classic type 1 and type 2 diabetesWhy many adults don't fit the "typical" diabetes profileAutoantibody testing and when it should be consideredThe role of GAD antibodies and C-peptide testingWhy preserving beta cell function mattersPreventing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) through earlier diagnosisHow continuous glucose monitoring can ease the transition to insulinCurrent treatment approaches for adults with LADAThe latest research on disease-modifying therapies and preserving insulin productionScreening resources, clinical trials, and where the future of LADA research is headed✨ Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram: / tcoydFacebook: / tcoydStay connected!

Lowering A1C in Prediabetes and Using Less Insulin on a Low-Carb Diet: Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, answers listener questions about blood sugar and insulin. Responding to Rita, whose hemoglobin A1C rose from 5.6 to 5.8, Layla says “glucose hacks” to blunt carb absorption aren't appropriate at that level and recommends a strict very low-carb/keto approach (under 25 grams of total carbs per day), avoiding sugar, starchy vegetables, fruit (except avocado), sweetened beverages, and even alternative sweeteners and low-carb processed products; she suggests retesting A1C after three months and avoiding testing during illness or inflammation. She also addresses Joy, a type 1 diabetic, affirming low-carb eating to reduce insulin needs and weight gain, criticizing an insurance pricing structure that charges more when insulin is used more slowly, and expressing concern about doctors prescribing insulin too quickly for type 2 diabetes instead of dietary intervention.

What Triggers Age-Related Belly Fat? New Stem Cell Findings and a Nutrition Perspective: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses research from City of Hope (published in Science) on why belly fat increases with age even without major weight gain, emphasizing the health risks of visceral fat as an endocrine organ linked to inflammation, diabetes, heart disease, and accelerated aging. The study suggests aging activates adipocyte progenitor cells (APCs) and produces an age-specific stem cell population called committed preadipocytes (CP-As) that generate new fat cells, with experiments showing older APCs create more fat cells even when transplanted into young mice. Single-cell RNA sequencing identified greater CP-A activity in middle-aged mice and similar cells in higher numbers in middle-aged human tissue. Researchers implicate the LIFR signaling pathway and propose future therapies to block these cells, while Leyla questions root causes and argues metabolic dysfunction—insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, high carbohydrate intake, and sedentary behavior—should be addressed nutritionally rather than via a pill.
Type 2 diabetes has become one of the most common chronic diseases in the world, but research continues to show that lifestyle can play a powerful role in preventing and even reversing the disease.In this solo episode of the NHA Today Podcast, Dr. Stephan Esser explores the science behind insulin resistance and shares five evidence-based lifestyle strategies that have been shown to dramatically reduce diabetes risk and improve blood sugar control. You'll learn why excess body fat, inflammation, nutrition and physical activity all play critical roles in metabolic health, and how small daily changes can lead to meaningful long-term results.Resources
BUFFALO, NY — July 23, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging on July 8, 2026, titled “TM4SF1 is a surface marker of senescent pancreatic β-cells.” The study was led by first author Ana Beathriz Leite Lorente from Joslin Diabetes Center and Harvard Medical School, and São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil, and corresponding author Cristina Aguayo-Mazzucato from Joslin Diabetes Center and Harvard Medical School. Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance and the progressive loss of pancreatic β-cell function. With aging and metabolic stress, senescent β-cells accumulate within the pancreas, producing less insulin while releasing inflammatory signals that contribute to disease progression. Although eliminating these dysfunctional cells has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy, a major challenge has been identifying markers that distinguish senescent β-cells from healthy cells with sufficient precision. This study identifies transmembrane 4 L six family member 1 (TM4SF1) as a highly selective surface marker of senescent β-cells, providing a promising candidate for the future development of more selective therapies for type 2 diabetes. In this study, the researchers searched for cell-surface proteins that specifically identify senescent β-cells. Using RNA sequencing, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and analyses of both mouse and human pancreatic tissue, they compared TM4SF1 with the previously established senescence marker urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR/PLAUR). Their findings showed that TM4SF1 is expressed predominantly in senescent β-cells while exhibiting much lower expression in non-senescent β-cells and other tissues, making it a more β-cell-specific surface marker than uPAR.

Type 2 diabetes may be the diagnosis—but what if it is also a symptom of deeper problems affecting the body?In this episode of The Dr. Haley Show, Dr. Michael Haley speaks with Dr. Jade Guerra about the functional medicine approach to Type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's disease, autoimmune conditions, environmental toxins, nutrition, sleep, and chronic illness.Dr. Guerra is both a Doctor of Chiropractic and a Family Nurse Practitioner with nearly 35 years of experience. Instead of applying the same treatment plan to every patient, she investigates the individual metabolic, hormonal, digestive, environmental, and lifestyle factors that may be interfering with that person's health.She explains why a diagnosis often develops years—or even decades—before it is discovered and why simply controlling a laboratory number may not address the underlying cause.DR.

Your body cannot release stored fat or heal itself when it perceives threat; gratitude is the measurable physiological switch that lowers cortisol, raises oxytocin, and allows metabolic transformation.DESCRIPTIONBen Azadi lost 80 pounds and reversed suicidal depression through metabolic healing. His father wasn't as fortunate—a preventable decline into type 2 diabetes, neuropathy, and stroke in 2014. That loss forged his purpose: reach one billion people and reverse type 2 diabetes in a million within a decade.But Azadi's message diverges sharply from the biohacking mainstream. While cold plunges and red light have their place, they're secondary. The foundation is unglamorous: gratitude, sunlight, grounding—all free, all measurable in blood work and heart rate variability.The science is stark: stress elevates cortisol; cortisol packs visceral fat around your organs. Gratitude does the inverse. Peer-reviewed research shows intentional gratitude practices reduce all-cause mortality by 9 percent and cardiovascular death by 15 percent.KetoFlex Revised, his new book, merges this psychological work with metabolic flexibility—teaching your body to burn fat instead of remaining locked into sugar dependence. His thesis: most people major in the minors, chasing complexity while overlooking what actually works.Ben Azadi Contact Info:https://KetoFlexBook.comSocial Media LinksInstagram: instagram.com/thebenazadiFacebook: facebook.com/thebenazadiYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KetoKampTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thebenazadiSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

GLP-1 receptor agonists have become some of the most talked-about medications in recent years. You may have heard names such as liraglutide, semaglutide (Ozempic and Wegovy), and tirzepatide (Mounjaro). These treatments have attracted attention because they can significantly reduce appetite and support weight loss while also helping to manage blood glucose levels. The breakthrough came when researchers developed long-acting versions of hormones naturally released by the body after eating, including GLP-1 and, in some cases, GIP. These hormones help regulate hunger and promote feelings of fullness. While the body's natural response lasts only a short time, modern medications extend these effects for up to a week with a single injection. Since results from major clinical trials emerged in the early 2020s, GLP-1 therapies have transformed obesity treatment, delivering weight-loss outcomes that surpass those achieved by previous medications and offering new hope for people struggling with weight management. - Laureate Professor Clare Collins, internationally distinguished leader in nutrition and dietetics, University of NewcastleSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Attend a Live Q&A with Dr. Glandt. Reigster here.What if the way we treat type 2 diabetes is fundamentally backwards?Dr. Mariela Glandt is an endocrinologist and obesity medicine specialist who spent 15 years practicing conventional medicine before concluding, in her words, that how we treat diabetes “is actually upside down.” As co-founder of OwnaHealth, she focuses on addressing the insulin resistance underlying type 2 diabetes, not only the elevated blood sugar it eventually causes.In this episode, she walks through the science of that shift: why fasting insulin may reveal metabolic dysfunction before A1C becomes abnormal, why a laboratory “normal” range running up to 20 can be misleading, and why she believes repeatedly escalating insulin can contribute to weight gain, reduced insulin responsiveness, and worsening metabolic health.She also shares what she has learned bringing low-carbohydrate and ketogenic therapy to underserved communities in the South Bronx, where patients may be navigating severe diabetes alongside financial pressure, cultural food traditions, psychiatric illness, chronic stress, and conflicting medical advice. Her work shows that these therapies can succeed even in communities facing significant barriers to care.Dr. Glandt also breaks down what GLP-1 medications actually do, where they can help, and what they may leave unresolved—including the risks of muscle loss, inadequate protein intake, and relying on medication without addressing the patient's broader metabolic health.Questions Answered in This Episode:• What key mindset shifts do conventionally trained physicians need to make when transitioning to a more integrated approach to medicine?• How does reframing diabetes as insulin resistance change the way a doctor practices?• What are the earliest signs of metabolic dysfunction that many clinicians miss?• Can ketogenic metabolic therapy succeed in underserved communities?• What do GLP-1 medications actually solve, and what do they leave untouched?• Where can ketogenic therapy and GLP-1 medications work together?• What has Dr. Glandt observed in patients living with both metabolic and psychiatric illness?• Where does endocrinology most need to change course?Viewers will come away with a different lens on metabolic disease, one that looks beyond glucose and weight to the biological, social, and practical factors shaping a patient's health.More links:For Richer, for Poorer: Low-Carb Diets Work for All IncomesOwnaHealth: Reverse the course of chronic disease — for everyone.Special thanks to the sponsors of this episode:✅ Toups and Co – Get 15% off your first order with code METABOLIC here.✅ iRestore – Get a huge discount on the Elite and the Illumina bundle with the code LINK here.In every episode of The Metabolic Link, we'll uncover the very latest research on metabolic health and therapy.

In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Steve Edelman is joined by pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Anna Cymbaluk, along with Philip and his father Jim, to discuss the recent FDA approval of Afrezza inhaled insulin for children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes. Dr. Cymbaluk served as an investigator on the INHALE-1 trial, while Philip participated in the study himself, providing a unique real-world perspective on what it is like to transition from injections to inhaled insulin, and Philip's dad, Jim provided the parent perspective as well as addressed parental concerns that might have arisen.The conversation focuses on the INHALE-1 study and the unmet challenges that continue to exist around mealtime insulin dosing in pediatric diabetes care. Dr. Cymbaluk reviews the trial design, glucose outcomes, safety data, patient satisfaction findings, and the practical realities of introducing inhaled insulin into everyday diabetes management. Philip and Jim share how Afrezza impacted school, sports, social situations, and the day-to-day burden of diabetes, particularly around pre-bolusing, corrections, and avoiding multiple injections throughout the day.Dr. Edelman and Dr. Cymbaluk also explore how Afrezza is dosed, how inhaled insulin differs from injected insulin, who may be a good candidate, and where it may fit alongside pumps and automated insulin delivery (AID) systems. For families looking for more flexibility, fewer mealtime barriers, and another option in the diabetes toolbox, this episode provides an honest look at the benefits, limitations, and real-world experience of inhaled insulin in children and teens.Key Topics• The FDA approval of Afrezza for children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes• The design and results of the INHALE-1 pediatric clinical trial• Patient satisfaction and quality-of-life outcomes from the study• The challenges of pre-bolusing and mealtime insulin management in children and teens• How inhaled insulin compares to traditional mealtime injections• Dosing strategies, cartridge sizes, and insulin conversion considerations• Using Afrezza for corrections, meals, and post-meal dosing• The role of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) when using inhaled insulin• Safety findings, lung-function monitoring, and cough management• Who may be a good candidate for Afrezza—and who may not be• Benefits for active children, athletes, and those participating in sports• Social situations, injection avoidance, and reducing the burden of diabetes management• Using Afrezza alongside insulin pumps and automated insulin delivery (AID) systems• The importance of having more treatment options to individualize diabetes careSupported by an unrestricted educational grant from MannKind CorporationSubscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram: / tcoydFacebook: / tcoydStay connected!

I find it shocking that, as easy as type 2 diabetes is to reverse, backed up by even human clinical trials validating this concept, few doctors inform their diabetic patients of this. Oddly, now that GLP-1 agonist (disastrous) drugs are available, the reduction in blood sugar coupled with weight loss has brought the idea of type 2 diabetes remission to the forefront, since it now is profitable to reverse it. But you do NOT need any pharmaceutical to reverse type 2 diabetes in the majority.

Is type 2 diabetes an incurable, progressive disease, as many doctors claim? The research says no. There is a simple, food-based approach that has been quietly studied since the 1970s, and it has helped people get their A1C back to normal without Metformin, without insulin, and without giving up a social life. In this episode, Chris Reade, entrepreneur and author of Beating Diabetes, shares his own story: his A1C jumped from normal to 9.1 in a single year, his doctor handed him a prescription and told him diabetes was an incurable, progressive disease. He walked out of that office and decided to find another way. Four months later, his A1C was back in the normal range. No Metformin. No insulin. No extreme diet.

If you've ever thought, “I know what to do, so why can't I do it,” this conversation hits the nerve and gives you a way out. We sit down with Dr. John Oberg, a human behavior strategist and healthcare innovator whose work targets one of the biggest problems in modern health: chronic metabolic disease and type 2 diabetes. Along the way, John shares a near-death car crash story that reshaped how he sees faith, relationships, and service, and why that personal turning point connects directly to how people change when the stakes are real.We get concrete about what actually moves the needle: how hemoglobin A1C works, why tiny sustainable swaps can drive major blood sugar improvement, and why most “go hard on Monday” plans collapse under stress. John breaks down his core framework: focus on what you control (your thoughts and your actions), build small habits you can repeat, and create the right support system so your environment stops fighting you. We also talk GLP-1 medications, insulin, and modern telemedicine, not as magic fixes, but as tools that can help patients stabilize, lower treatment burden, and eventually reduce dependence on medication with food-as-medicine strategies.You'll also hear practical guidance you can use today: “move right” by shifting from processed food toward whole food, “move more” with 10-minute blocks of intentional walking, and stop grazing all day so your body gets clear fed and fasting periods. We even share a blunt, compassionate patient story framed as Door A, Door B, or Door C that shows what non-judgmental care really looks like when someone feels stuck.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.

In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Edelman and Dr. Pettus are joined by pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Jamie Wood, medical director of pediatric diabetes at Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital and an investigator on the INHALE-1 trial, to talk through inhaled insulin in kids and where it fits in real-world pediatric care.The conversation focuses on the recent approval of Afrezza for children as young as six, and what the INHALE-1 trial actually showed. Dr. Wood walks through the study design, A1C results, lung-function and safety data, and the practical aspects of dosing inhaled insulin in a pediatric population. Rather than positioning it as a replacement for injections or pumps, the discussion centers on finding the right fit for each child's needs, from the newly diagnosed kid with a needle phobia to the teen trying to dose discreetly during a 20-minute school lunch.Dr. E, Dr. P, and Dr. Wood also discuss the everyday realities that shape how this option is used, including the set-dose cartridge sizes, a titration approach refined in clinic, and how families are mixing and matching tools alongside automated insulin delivery. The takeaway is encouraging: there are more options than ever for managing mealtime insulin in kids, and this one may help fill some of the gaps left by injections and pumps.Key Topics • The recent approval of inhaled insulin for children as young as six • How the INHALE-1 pediatric trial was designed • A1C results and what the primary endpoint analysis showed • Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) metrics across the two groups • Lung-function (FEV1) monitoring and pediatric safety • Weight and body mass index (BMI) findings • Why mealtime dosing is a leading unmet need in pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) • The set-dose cartridge approach and how it reframes meal sizes • A real-world titration method for inhaled insulin • Managing cough and other practical considerations • Needle phobia and the kids who struggle most with injections • Using inhaled insulin alongside automated insulin delivery (AID) systems • What's coming next, including a smaller cartridge dose and a new-onset trial Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram: / tcoydFacebook: / tcoydStay connected!

Perimenopause, Insulin Resistance, and Persistent Muscle & Joint Pain: A Functional Medicine Framework: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses perimenopausal musculoskeletal symptoms—new or persistent joint pain, muscle aches, and tendon problems—and highlights a Clinician's Journal article by physical therapist Tara Moore proposing insulin resistance screening in perimenopausal musculoskeletal care. She explains that declining estradiol during the menopausal transition can worsen insulin signaling, increase visceral fat, and reduce insulin sensitivity, affecting skeletal muscle recovery and potentially contributing to tendinopathies and poor or short-lived responses to localized treatments like PT. The framework emphasizes assessing systemic metabolic contributors (e.g., sedentary behavior, high-carbohydrate nutrition patterns, PCOS, central weight gain, stress, sleep disruption) and addressing mediators such as inflammation and impaired glucose utilization. She suggests integrating metabolic risk assessment, sleep and stress strategies, resistance training, and interdisciplinary referrals, arguing that nutrition and supplementation—especially a low-carb approach—may improve recovery and pain outcomes.
