We found a diamond in the rough world of Diabetes!  Today's guest is Dr. Mariela Glandt an Endocrinologist and founder and CEO of OwnaHealth, an online consulting company aimed at reversing diabetes and helping patients ditch their drugs, especially the dreaded Insulin.  After being approached by a best friend who confronted her on how “the medical system” seemed to be backwards in its dietary approach to managing Diabetes, Dr. Glandt reconsidered what she learned in Medical classes. After some hesitation, she became forward thinking enough to start using the principles of basic physiology  and stop the perpetual cycle of using drugs over food and lifestyle modifications. Go figure! (and if you haven’t seen the South Park episode about flipping the food pyramid, don’t laugh but they actually were on to something!) As we perpetually see a continued rise in the obesity epidemic and the  increasingly dangerous effects of Type 2 Diabetes and its complications, Dr. Glandt is helping her patients achieve MAJOR health changes, ditch their medications and achieve their amazing results with diet modifications- specifically LOW CARB diet. She expertly and simply explains to her patients and our listeners here, the mechanism by which Insulin is causing more inflammation and damage, and how to  She admits she is a unicorn in her field but is hopeful the paradigm will soon shift. For those of you lucky enough to have found her here, check out her website and consider making a dramatic health and life change you won't regret.  Shout out of the week!

Sponsored by: New Leaf Hyperbaric and Wellness Oxygen Therapy In this reaired episode, Tim and May delve into the alarming history of one of the greatest blunders in the realm of medicine: the widespread overprescribing of opioids. The catastrophic journey began with a seemingly innocuous five-sentence letter published in the New England Journal of Medicine back in 1980. Little did anyone know that this brief letter would be cited a staggering 608 times in medical literature, wrongly advocating for the safety of opiate prescription. The hosts meticulously trace the evolution of opioids, exploring both their historical context and the gradual normalization of their medical use. A critical turning point was the misinterpretation of data, which triggered a cascade of detrimental consequences. The medical establishment, pharmaceutical companies, and regulatory bodies fell victim to groupthink, unknowingly perpetuating a series of major falsehoods: The Illusion of Progress: The erroneous belief that modern times could manage opioid usage more effectively than a century ago. The Medicalization Fallacy: The false sense of security created by medicalizing opioid usage, leading to the misconception that their use was inherently safe. The Solution Misconception: The assumption that finding a medical solution was imperative for addressing both acute and chronic pain, thus justifying widespread opioid prescription. As Tim and May navigate this sobering narrative, they share a lighter side as well, chuckling at past and recent advertisements that promoted these harmful substances. From the days of "mother's little helper" cough syrup to the more recent tagline "One to start with and one to stay with" for OxyContin, the absurdity of these marketing campaigns is evident. The duo also highlight the ironic concept of "pain as the fifth vital sign," revealing how the opiate journey unfolded and contributed to this unsettling notion. Through their engaging discussion, Tim and May paint a vivid picture of how a series of miscalculations, misinformation, and misguided beliefs led to the opioid crisis, resulting in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. This reaired episode serves as a reminder of the imperative role critical thinking and a thorough understanding of historical context play in shaping medical practices and policies. Our Advice!
