Sharing this interesting article from Christina Farr about the pros and cons of continuous glucose monitoring. I know from personal experience how valuable it can be for people with diabetes, like my father-in-law who had a tremor and could not manage a lancet. The CGM was life changing! But in this article we learn that for people with prediabetes, they can give false alarms, sometimes in the middle of the night. Seems like device designers could enable settings for prediabetes users to address this? https://lnkd.in/gKKxZixQ

GLP-1 is a hormone that we all have. It affects primarily insulin regulation, speed of digestion after eating, and the feeling of fullness. GLP-1 therapy mimics the hormone. Take a look at Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk stock. A primary driver of their momentum appears to be around GLP-1. Hims & Hers Health Inc stock also surged 25%+ the day they announced they will offer GLP-1 injections. Simultaneously, 40%+ of Americans are classified as obese, and it appears there’s a regulatory and societal push for insurance providers to include obesity treatment. There are certainly risks that should be discussed with a doctor before taking these therapies. Not medical or investing advice. This stuff appears to be tremendously important and still in its nascency.

NEW PODCAST: S5 E8: "Pharmacy First Song"; Rehab for Long Covid; Urate to Predict Acute Gout 🎙️🎶 Welcome back to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. In this episode, we think about the pay offer for practices in England, a new King’s Fund report on the under-funding of primary care for three decades, and the introduction of Pharmacy First. In new research, we have two papers. First, in the BMJ, can an online combined exercise and psychological programme improve quality of life for patients struggling after hospitalisation with covid? Second, in JAMA, can serum urate levels help predict future flares of gout and guide us on who might benefit the most from urate-lowering therapy. #PrimaryCare #HotTopics #Podcast

Parkinson's: Lets talk about it.... Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS, present progressive deterioration of the nervous system, leading to functional decline. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in managing these conditions by focusing on enhancing mobility, strength, and overall quality of life. Therapeutic interventions aim to address specific symptoms, promote independence, and alleviate the impact of neurodegenerative processes on daily activities. We discussed in detail this topic in our recent episode with @Dr. Shrishti Banerjee https://lnkd.in/gubsBMgM #NeuroRehabilitation #PhysioForNeuro #DegenerativeDiseases #MovementMatters #HealthThroughMotion

I hope anyone with #lymphedema, #lipedema, #veinproblems, #wounds or practitioners in these areas will listen to and watch the Lymphcast podcast. Also available on YouTube. #hope

Hey everyone, we did it! For the past seven years we’ve had a challenge. People would approach us, wanting to invest in Scimar, but we had to say “no.” The reason was simple. We were held back by regulations that said we couldn’t accept small and mid-sized investments from individuals. When we launched our podcast three years ago, this problem continued because our listeners started contacting us asking to invest. Then, a podcast fan called our office and suggested we look into the recently updated SEC rules under “Regulation A”, because it would open our investment opportunity to a broader audience. This was the start of a two-year journey filled with challenges and setbacks, learning, and growth, leading to the exciting announcement of Scimar’s first SEC-Qualified Public Offering. This means that people are now allowed to invest as little as $99 USD to join our mission of ending type 2 diabetes through breakthrough science. This democratization of the investment process aligns with Scimar’s core values. We're proud to be the first company in Manitoba to achieve this, paving the way for others to follow the trail we have blazed. On this exciting occasion, I have a few direct asks of my LinkedIn community: 1.      Remind yourself of our mission, and what we’re trying to achieve. 2.      Visualize the people in your life, who might benefit from our science. 3.      Please consider investing in our mission to positively impact global human health. You can do all this on our website: https://lnkd.in/giPkMEdM In the coming months, I'll share insights into our journey, the hurdles we face and overcome, and updates on our progress. Expect stories of innovation, community engagement, and partnerships that drive us closer to our goals. A heartfelt thanks to everyone who's been part of this journey: our team and their families, our investors, our podcast fans, and the many members of the professional community who have supported us along the way.

In my latest podcast, Dr. Tania Dempsey, an expert in vector-borne microbes like Lyme, shed light on this complex condition. She emphasized that Chronic Lyme is very much a reality, often accompanied by resistant co-infections. It’s a contested condition due to difficulty in diagnosis and often presents with vague, non-specific symptoms. Some clinical presentations may include: ➡️Rash (acute) ➡️Fatigue ➡️Flu-like symptoms ➡️Joint and muscle pain ➡️Neurological symptoms When it comes to diagnosing, Dr. Dempsey advises that lab tests alone aren't enough and emphasizes the need for comprehensive screening for all tick-borne infections. As for treatment, she focuses on holistic healing, addressing factors such as stress, toxin, and mold exposure For in-depth insights on diagnosis using lab work and questionnaires, alongside discussing both conventional and natural treatments, check out my latest podcast.

Unlocking the Power of Your Gut- The Key to Longevity and Health⁠ Biome Bite 013⁠ ⁠ I think hundreds of millions of people, maybe even billions of people all around the planet who can benefit from taking control of their gut health and making some adjustments and optimising their microbiome to live a longer, healthier, happier life. ⁠ ⁠ The reason we're doing this podcast is because there's an education piece that has to happen alongside the drug development piece. The education piece is arguably just as important, maybe even more important. We have to get the message out there to people about what this is and why it's important. Now, I can say that even since we started the podcast, there's been a big change in the society's perception of drug development.⁠ ⁠ of the gut microbiome, what the gut is, and the importance of gut health for everything, for digestion, for well being, and of course for treating disease and making medicines more effective.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Get the podcast on your favourite podcast app and on YouTube.⁠ ⁠ Nothing in this content should be considered medical advice.
