Beating Alcohol & Drug Addiction with Ozempic?

Diabetes Nerd January 28, 2025 6:00 am

SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER 👉 https://www.diabetesnerd.com/newsletter 
Discover the cutting-edge science behind Harmine and GLP-1 medications and their potential to reverse type 1 diabetes. In this video, we explore how these innovative compounds work synergistically to enhance insulin production, regulate blood sugar levels, and improve overall metabolic health. Whether you're managing diabetes or simply curious about advancements in treatment, this deep dive will provide valuable insights into how Harmine and GLP-1s are paving the way for a healthier future. 

Since 2015, a dedicated team led by Dr. Andrew F. Stewart from Mount Sinai Hospital has been working on a novel two-drug approach that focuses on regenerating insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This is a major breakthrough, especially when you consider that about 643 million people worldwide are living with diabetes—most of them with type 2 diabetes.

So, what’s the strategy here? The researchers discovered a class of orally active drugs that can actually make these beta cells replicate. The star of the show is a prototype drug called harmine, a natural compound found in certain plants. Now, harmine hasn’t been extensively studied in humans yet, but it’s shown promise in lab settings for inducing beta cell regeneration.
