In this episode, Dr. Steve dives into the intricate world of diabetic medication. With over 30 years of experience as a doctor of pharmacy, he expertly breaks down the mechanisms, histories, and main issues, including adverse effects, of six primary classes of diabetic drugs. This discussion sheds light on the fact that while these medications address symptoms, the real key to overcoming diabetes lies in dietary changes, not drugs.
[00:01 - 08:58] Sulfonylureas And Thiazolidinediones
Sulfonylureas: Stimulate insulin production; associated with weight gain and insulin resistance.
First discovered in 1942, with advancements leading to a new generation in 1984.
Thiazolidinediones: Boost insulin sensitivity but risk serious side effects..
The increase in type 2 diabetes and new medication classes correlate with dietary shifts towards higher carbohydrate intake.
[07:11 - 19:31] Biguanides And GLP-1 Agonists
Metformin: Reduces glucose production; U.S. approved in 1994 due to lactic acidosis risks.
GLP-1 Agonists: Popular for weight loss; may increase insulin resistance.
Potential for insulin resistance and side effects like nausea and gastroparesis.
[13:37 - 27:35] DPP-4 Inhibitors And SGLT2 Inhibitors
DPP-4 Inhibitors: Regulate insulin by blocking the DPP-4 enzyme.
May worsen insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes.
SGLT2 Inhibitors: Facilitate glucose excretion via urine without altering insulin levels.
Provide cardiovascular and renal benefits but risk of ketoacidosis.
[27:36 - 33:52] Closing Segment
Stress on diet over medication for diabetes management.
Recommends a diet rich in meat and fats for fullness and nutrients.
Urges a shift towards nutrient-rich foods to potentially reverse diabetes.
