Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Personalized Level Dosing GLP-1 W/ Dr. Ian Justl-Ellis
Q: In practice, how long do people stay on GLP-1 medications, and how do you decide when to taper off or maintain at maintenance levels?
He explains that GLP-1s are a tool and the duration depends on how long someone has been obese, how their body has adapted, and the goal is to reach a maintenance plan that keeps weight off, often by stepping down dosing gradually once a healthy weight and stable metabolic state are achieved.
Personalized Level Dosing GLP-1 W/ Dr. Ian Justl-Ellis
Q: Can you talk a little more about the relationship between GLP-1 medications and eating disorders, and how your approach addresses appetite and weight?
He discusses how the GLP-1s primarily affect appetite, how traditional dosing can cause severe side effects and discourage patients, and how level-based, personalized dosing aims to keep appetite moderated while maintaining tissue and muscle mass, reducing the risk of relapse into disordered eating behaviors.
Personalized Level Dosing GLP-1 W/ Dr. Ian Justl-Ellis
Q: Can you tell us just a little bit about yourself and what led you into the work that you're doing?
Ian explains a long journey from being an ER physician and recovering from his own struggles with weight and eating disorders, which fueled his pursuit of healthier approaches to weight management and ultimately led to founding Voafit and developing the level-based dosing framework.
Breast Implant Illness W/ Rachel Smith
Q: First off, is breast implant illness real or are people imagining symptoms?
Breast implant illness is a real phenomenon for many people, with a broad range of symptoms and a plausible biological basis involving foreign material triggering inflammation and potential autoimmune connections; it is not a formal diagnosis, but a label used by patients and clinicians to describe a cluster of symptoms.
The New Autoimmune Protocol W/ Mickey Trescott
Q: What are the main differences between the original AIP and the Modified AIP, and how does the new book formalize the transition?
Original AIP was very strict and diet-centric, often hard to sustain. Modified AIP adds back certain foods like grains and legumes for fiber and nutrients while maintaining elimination of the top triggers, and the book formalizes a transition phase with clear timelines and reintroduction guidelines, backed by community input and research.
