This episode is brought to you by LMNT, Lifeforce, and Lumebox. The conversation around GLP-1 agonists has often been one-sided and biased by mainstream media, leading to myths about who should use these drugs, how they should be prescribed, and their side effects. Today’s guest offers a more comprehensive perspective on these medications and discusses her nuanced approach to using them to promote overall health and longevity.

Dr. Tina, you feel pretty strongly that we are being lied to about the side effects of drugs

0:08.8

like Osmpick and the place and role that they have in helping people truly get healthy.

0:16.5

So I'd love to start off a big picture.

0:18.4

What are some of those lies that we're all hearing and more importantly, why do you think we're being lied to?

0:24.6

Number one I think the biggest lie I'm hearing that I'm I'm really done with is the

0:29.5

induces muscle mass loss that is a misn The amount, the percentage of muscle loss is right in sync with any colorically restricted

0:39.7

diet.

0:40.7

It's right in sync with bariatric surgery. Anytime you put somebody into a

0:44.6

malnourished state you don't protect their muscle by prioritizing their protein

0:48.8

macros by having them strength train you're going to see muscle mass loss. The interesting part of

0:54.5

that to go one step further is that they're actually looking at lean mass

0:58.6

loss and lean mass is all of your soft tissues. That's the number they're reporting. Muscle is part of your

1:06.5

lean mass loss, but there are fatty infiltrates in the liver, in the pancreas, in the muscles, in folks who are metabolically unsound or suffering with obesity and or, and when they lose that with the use of G. L.P. 1 agonists, they're measuring that loss too. So it's a more in-depth conversation that we're not

really getting fleshed out in the studies. So I think that's the biggest one. The

1:30.7

other one that I think has been put to bed recently is the thyroid cancer risk.

1:35.0

The studies coming out on that have been correlative, not causative.

1:38.8

They're looking at patients who are already having the struggles with type 2 diabetes already diagnosed with obesity and then they are being put on a G.P. 1 agonist.

1:49.5

They're looking at their medical records.

1:51.5

That group of folks are already at high risk for thyroid cancer at a higher risk

1:56.7

than their lean counterparts. But even then, it's correlative, not causative.

2:01.6

And the interesting thing about the black box warning is that it was done on rats if you actually go in and look at it

2:07.2

It was done on rats these rats were given incredibly high doses and what they don't tell you is that the control group of rats also
