On this episode of the Dr. Tina show, we are deep diving into the conversation around the latest study that just came out linking vision loss to OZempic.

0:17.4

My inbox has been flooded the past week, everybody saying, can you talk more about this? I want to hear your take. I want to know what you think. I've also gotten a ton of hate mail from people saying, see, Dr. Tina, OZempic causes blindness. So we're going to break it down. And to do so, I've invited my dear friend and naturopathic cardiologist Dr. Lauren Latanza. She is a Scottsdale,

0:39.7

Arizona doctor. She's been in practice a good long while. She specializes in the cardiovascular system.

0:45.4

She is my go-to expert for all things vascular. And since this paper came out titled the risk of non-artoritic,

0:53.7

anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in patients prescribed semaclytide.

0:58.8

That's a mouthful.

1:00.2

Hopefully I pronounced everything right.

1:01.3

I'm a little tongue-tied today.

1:03.5

1:11.6

You're going to learn something. And if you're a hater, you're definitely going to learn something

1:15.2

because, as always, we've got to go back to the basics on how the body works, how type 2 diabetes

1:20.3

is handled in the body, how obesity is handled in the body. This is a nuanced conversation.

1:25.7

So let's jump in. The middle-aged middle

1:27.8

is no joke. And so I recently reached out to Nutrisense about their subscription program

1:32.7

utilizing their biosensor to have a look at what my blood sugar was doing in response to the

1:37.4

foods I was eating. I noticed that certain foods, eaten at certain times of day, along with stress

1:43.1

and sleep disruption, all caused all kinds of

1:45.8

aberrations to my blood sugar. It was very insightful, and after a month, I have been able to shed

1:50.7

some of that fluff on my tummy. When you embark on a one-month subscription with Nutrisense,
