In this captivating video, I delve deep into the revolutionary realm of obesity management with a spotlight on Retatrutide, a triple hormone receptor agonist poised to redefine the landscape of weight loss solutions. Join me on an enlightening journey as I unpack the intricacies of this innovative medication, exploring its unique mechanism of action and potential impact on individuals struggling with obesity.
Through meticulous analysis of a phase 2 clinical trial involving over 300 participants, I unveil compelling insights into Retatrutide's efficacy. From its ability to mimic three crucial satiety hormones-GLP-1, GIP, and GCG-to its remarkable outcomes in weight reduction percentages, this video offers a comprehensive overview of Retatrutide's transformative potential.
But my exploration doesn't stop there. I address important considerations such as side effects, including gastrointestinal discomfort and the emerging concern of cardiac arrhythmias. With balanced scrutiny, I navigate through the complexities of Retatrutide's safety profile, highlighting both its promises and potential challenges.
As we peer into the future, I discuss the ongoing phase 3 trials and the anticipated timeline for Retatrutide's availability in the market. Amidst the excitement of medical innovation, I underscore the significance of continued research and data dissemination, emphasizing the importance of informed decision-making in the realm of healthcare.

My actual goal... My kidneys are about 55%. I keep being told that the best thing I can do to help them is lose weight. I was just over 300lbs last April, started Wegovy in August at about 280, and I'm currently at about 245. I was on dialysis for a couple of months in the hospital, but got off that just before I got out. I'm about 50, and assume as I get older and my kidneys naturally decline I'm eventually going to end up on dialysis again. I want to postpone that as long as possible. Fitting in the world better is a massive bonus, but the real goal is kidney health.

@cloakster 4 ай бұрын

I think that’s really smart. Delay or obviate the need for dialysis at all costs. Ppl on dialysis tend not to live for tremendously long periods of time once that stage is reached (maybe long if they’re young to start with)… not to put too fine a point on it. 😕 Wish you much luck and strength in your journey towards health. 🙏

Hey Dr Dan, nice basic overview of Reta. 👌 Especially liked when you went into a bit of detail about the possible high-dose arrhythmia issue, and how ‘too much’ weight loss can actually be a bad side effect. 🤔 Just a heads-up: You can probably hit us a little bit harder on the science and the deets without losing us. One of the things that really differentiates your content is that you are super-knowledgeable and can talk about things in a slightly deeper way. 👍 Look forward to more vids on the ‘star’ next-gen drugs, like CagriSema, Maritide, VK2735/‘Vikingtide’, Orforglipron, Mazdutide, etc. Vikingtide in fact just dropped Phase 2 results today, and they were pretty stellar. ✨

I don't know the accuracy of a Dexascan, but I took one before and after using Semaglutide for about 3 months. I lost 25 pounds, but according to the Dexascan, about 60% of my weight loss was lean tissue. Not eating, not exercising, and not consuming protein isn't exactly a good thing. I later have found using a very low dose to where I feel like eating 2 small meals a day was better and has less side effects. You can lower your dose until you feel like eating a little bit, or your hunger is suppressed a little. During my first try I didn't feel like eating anything at all. I'd eventually get dizzy from not eating at the end of the day. So I'd eat a little bit, but felt like I was eating when I was already too full.

@Josh.Mangelson 3 ай бұрын

Interesting. Semaglutide did nothing for me with weight loss. I made sure to get enough lean protein. It slowed gastric emptying, but it did nothing in regards to lowering my overall caloric appetite.

Hello, Dr. Dan! I wonder if you'd be willing to do a video on foods that increase GLP-1 secretions. I was reading a study (via NIH site) regarding protein with a milk-mineral rich supplement as being optimal. I had VSG in 2014 and the docs wanted us to drink protein shakes. i understand better why. With MJ doing less appetite suppression, I'd like some tools for increasing GLP-1 secretions. The food noise isn't really there on 10mg, but the weight loss has been stalled for months or else excruciatingly low. losing the food noise is a bigger deal for me, I think, but I still have a long way to go and I worry about hitting the MJ max and having nowhere to go. Love your channel. Thank you.

@@theofficialdrdan Thanks, I found it :) Your suggestion that insurance should cover these drugs doesn't consider the outrageous cost for them in the US. I did a bit of arithmetic, and if Medicare were to pay for, say, Wegovy for all their obese patients, it would literally cost more than 100% of Medicare's entire budget! If they added in the merely overweight, it would cost over 200% of the budget, thus tripling Medicare's total costs. I agree that drug companies deserve to recoup their R&Dn and testing costs and make a good profit, but there is absolutely no need for them to be charging the astronomical prices they do in the US. China just announced approval of branded Ozempic (yes, they have their own knockoffs,) and the price there will be $150/month. I've simply decided to call all GLP-1 and GIP drugs "unobtainium." I managed to lose about 50 lbs over a period of 5 years, but got stuck 2 years ago at 200 lbs. At 5'9" that puts my right on the edge of merely overweight vs obese. I'm feeling quite despondent about it. I know what to do, but it just isn't working any more :( My only hope is that perhaps my Chinese or Danish relatives can bring me some from their countries.

Hey Dr Dan, another Reta Q: Glucagon, a Reta component, apparently has some catabolic effects. Anything to worry about, in terms of retaining muscle mass while on Reta? And if so, to what extent? 🤔

@theofficialdrdan 4 ай бұрын

This is going to be something we will need to tease out in the phase 3 trials. Sarcopenia is a very real possibility especially since individuals in this phase 2 trial lost 'too much weight'. There is some interesting rodent studies that show with glucagon alone there is significant weight-loss including substantial muscle loss, however, when the mice are given amino acids to counter losses the weightloss benefit goes away. So I feel it will be something we need to take into consideration and have an understanding regarding it but to what extent it will be is a good question. And I am not sure at present!

Do you think that your body can become accustomed to the med and stop actually working? I’ve been on Mounjaro for a year and half and I am type two diabetic. I’ve lost about 25 pounds but it has stalled. I haven’t lost any weight in 6 months and I’ve been on the highest dose for almost a year now. I should say that it is still working on keeping my blood sugars down but, the hunger is back and even though im not gaining I haven’t lost any either so I just wonder if I am use to the dose now. Just curious.

@theofficialdrdan 4 ай бұрын

The medications don't stop working. They continue to suppress your appetite and food seeking behaviors. However, we need to keep in mind that losing weight requires calories in < calories out. So if you aren't losing you aren't a calorie deficit consistently enough. The medications aren't magic they only make it a bit easier to get into a calorie deficit. So you still need to ensure you are actively achieving a calorie deficit via tracking your calories or what have you. As for the hunger coming back I reviewed that in detail via this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLyPa7d8vt-7j4E.html

I would love to see at least one or two of the many KZfaq doctors who are talking about these drugs, and spinning up the demand for them, talk a bit about all the off label prescribing that is making diabetics have to chase these drugs from pharmacy to pharmacy, and frequently change dosages or completely change drugs or go completely without any because people are getting these drugs that should not. There is only one of these meds that is approved for weight loss.

You're using a strawman argument. These drugs were developed for people with chronic diseases, both diabetes and obesity. Both chronic and progressive diseases. You are creating an us vs. them dynamic because it's easy to be mad at your fat neighbor Joe vs. understanding and trying to change the government and pharmaceutical systems that led to these issues in the first place. If we take things a step further, and we use your logic. There are more people with obesity than diabetes. Therefore, these drugs should be allocated just as they are, and people with obesity should be up in arms that people with diabetes are being prescribed these meds. Especially since people with diabetes have multiple drugs and classes of drugs to treat their condition. Does that sound reasonable? Personally, I don't want to see either scenario. You're mad at the wrong people, Jeff. Direct your energy towards changing the actual problem vs. your neighbor Joe, and maybe we can see some real change!
