The 6 Dysfunctional Hormones of Type 1 Diabetes || DiabetesNerd
DOWNLOAD MY FREE 80/20 DIET GUIDE: https://gingervieira.com/free-ebook/
Let's talk about the other hormones, beyond insulin, that get completely screwed up by type 1 diabetes.

Nope, it's not just insulin! There are five other hormones indirectly affected by the attack on your pancreas. And these hormones play a big role in your blood sugar, your ability to lose or manage your weight, your appetite, and more.

You were only given one hormone: insulin.

GLP-1 medications should be critical in type 1 diabetes because they help your body compensate for the other five hormones you don't produce properly!

T1D Cure Research: Sernova Shares Update on Six Participants || DiabetesNerd
Subscribe to my newsletter: https://gingervieira.com/newsletter/

Will Sernova's Cell Pouch technology become a functional cure for type 1 diabetes? Sernova Corporation recently shared an update on the first phase of their clinical trial with six participants with longstanding type 1 diabetes. All six participants achieved insulin independence — but the length of time they no longer needed daily insulin therapy varied significantly from patient to patient.

How many are still insulin-independent today? Well, Sernova's update doesn't bode well here but don't lose hope. They're improving their approach for the next group of participants.

5 "Healthy" Foods that Spike Blood Sugar || DiabetesNerd
FREE GUIDE: download the 80/20 DIET: https://gingervieira.com/free-ebook/
Trying to improve your blood sugar, lose weight, or prevent type 2 diabetes?
If you're eating these types of foods, you're spiking your blood sugar.

If you ask people with diabetes who track their blood sugar levels all day long, you'll find a few common foods that we all tend to avoid. And non-diabetics tend to think these foods are harmless and better for your blood sugar.

If you're trying to prevent or reverse type 2 diabetes, these five foods are probably spiking your blood sugar!

Closest to the Cure | Top 4 Cures for Type 1 Diabetes in Research
SUBSCRIBE to my newsletter: https://gingervieira.com/newsletter
FREE GUIDE on my 80/20 DIET: https://gingervieira.com/free-ebook/

Researchers are working very hard to cure type 1 diabetes. These four biotechnology companies are closest to successfully producing a functional cure for type 1 diabetes.

It starts with Vertex Pharmaceuticals. They've developed a proprietary product that produces insulin! The cool part is that they can manufacture as many of those beta cells as we might need. VX-880 uses immunosuppression therapy, but VX-264 uses a protective device to shield the cells from your immune system.

Next is Sernova Corporation. Sernova also has developed a way to manufacture their own cells that produce insulin, but they protect the cells in a very small pouch. Your blood vessels can grow through that pouch, pick up the insulin, and take the insulin throughout your body where it's needed.

Sana Biotechnology has cured type 1 diabetes in monkeys using gene-edited cells from another type of monkey! These cells are "hypo-immune" which means your immune system doesn't see them and doesn't attack them. They are safe! Their human trial is just getting started and we're eager to hear any updates!

Seraxis has also developed "lab-grown" cells that produce insulin. They protect those cells with yet another device so your immune system cannot destroy them. Seraxis has not begun human trials yet but their research is very promising!

New Research Explains Mounjaro & Ozempic Weight Loss || DiabetesNerd
DOWNLOAD a FREE GUIDE on MY 80/20 DIET: https://gingervieira.com/free-ebook/

How do GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro and Ozempic cause weight loss? Recent research explains Mounjaro and Ozempic weight loss with new scientific discoveries.

Mainstream media thinks Ozempic and Mounjaro lead to weight loss by reducing your appetite, but it's more complicated than that. Mounjaro and Ozempic help you lose weight by reducing how much sugar your liver makes, delaying the digestion of the food you eat, and new research science says it increases your metabolism, too. This means Mounjaro and Ozempic help you lose weight by increasing how many calories you burn at rest.

Type 1 vs. Type 2 Diabetes | Shocking Research I Never Knew! || Diabetes Nerd
Most people get really mad when you confuse type 1 and type 2 diabetes, but research says these conditions have more in common than we think! SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER: https://gingervieira.com/newsletter/

What causes type 2 diabetes versus type 1 diabetes? Can type 2 diabetes be cured with diet and weight loss? Research says some people can put type 2 diabetes into remission with lifestyle habits, but some people with type 2 diabetes will also need help from medications.

Dr. Matthias von Herrath from the Diabetes Research Institute --@CureDiabetesDRI -- is one of the world's top researchers in the field of type 1 diabetes. In their work at the DRI, Dr. Herrath and his team are working to develop better treatments and cures for type 1 diabetes — but studying type 2 diabetes actually helps their type 1 cure research!

In this video, he teaches me shocking facts about type 1 and type 2 diabetes that you probably never knew! Learn more about the start of type 1 diabetes and the progression of type 2 diabetes in this video.
