Hey, gang, it’s me, Dr. Steve, here to help you think better so you can feel better in these crazy and turbulent times. And speaking of feeling better, big pharma is still fighting to keep us hooked. And today we’re going to talk about their latest scheme. It’s very interesting. Get this. So you’ve got this pharmaceutical enterprise, Eli Lillian company. It’s a drug company that’s had its hand in all kinds of meds, from Prozac to Covid therapies and the like.

Manjaro is this med for diabetes that’s now being used for weight loss. It’s among their top sellers. And they don’t just push these meds. They’re now coming up with what amounts to more or less, just like a kind of marketing scheme that bypasses your doctor. So according to a report by NBC News, Lily CEO David Ricks said that they were pushing the notion of shipping the medication directly to patients via telehealth visits so they wouldn’t even need to consult their own doctors.

Now, I’m all for medical freedom, obviously, but this smacks to me more of a marketing gimmick to increase sales and profits than anything else. You see, gang, obesity is big in America. Pun intended. All right, it’s a huge problem. 40% of adults are obese. And so of course, we shouldn’t be surprised to see big pharma trying to get their hands into the diet industry and capitalize off this.

And by making weight loss supplements and drugs, making us dependent on these weight loss supplements and drugs, we end up becoming dependent on them. Now, as many of you know, this is personal for me. I recently lost 60 pounds over the course of eight months without resorting to a single drug. And this is why what they’re doing bothers me so much. I just can’t help but think they’re trying to enslave 40% of Americans to big pharma instead of just helping them to get to the root of their health issues and make lasting, holistic changes.

So this is what I did and that is what our guest today is all about. We are so blessed to have an insider’s connection with a doctor who practices regenerative medicine and approaches weight loss using sustainable natural means. We’re grateful to have our sponsor and dear friend, Dr. Sarah Doyle back with us today. Not only is Sarah a fellow Turley talker patriot herself, but she’s a certified functional medical practitioner who co founded Heal well Regenerative Institute in Miami beach, where she created a proven system for health restoration and transformation.

And she is graciously offering to our Turley talks family a super awesome discount on her eight week men’s biohacking bootcamp or her eight week women’s upwoman tribe when you book a free call with her just by clicking on the link below. So welcome back, Dr. Sarah. It’s great to see you here. Thanks so much for having me, Steve. It’s always a pleasure to be here. Your audience members are so gracious and well informed and I enjoyed communicating with them after the last session that we had.

For sure. Yeah, well, they love you, that’s for sure. We got some amazing feedback on that. Your expertise in functional medicine contributes valuable insights to the whole critical discourse surrounding health and wellness. I know you’ve already helped so many trolley talkers I’ve heard back and love it. Last time you were here with us, you reminded us that losing weight is paramount when it comes to disease prevention. In light of this, and in your estimation, what’s going on with big pharma and government trying to push doctors out of the equation when it comes to purchasing their products? Well, I love America and I love capitalism, but in any industry, there’s always going to be opportunists, be it financial advisors, realtors, dentists.

And this is just one of those opportunities where the consumer really has to do their due diligence. So one of the important things you have to realize, okay, so this is a very helpful drug for many people who have insulin resistance. And by that I mean your HBA one C. That’s your three month average of blood sugar control. If your HBA one C is above 6. 5, you’re clinically diabetic.

And this drug is specifically designed to act on these receptors in both your brain and in your digestive system. It’s called a GLP one receptor agonist. Right? So these drugs will increase insulin and decrease glucagon. So glucagon is a chemical that tells your liver to convert glycogen into sugar. So it slows that down, and it slows down the digestion. It tells the brain to decrease food intake. So for people who are obese, this is a helpful thing.

It is. I mean, it is helpful, but it should be an adjunct. I think that as a consumer, you need to realize you will be injecting yourself. Is there a nurse who’s going to help you? Is there somebody? If you’re ordering online from a doctor, did the doctor read your whole medical record? Do they know everything about you? Or is it a five minute screening? Do you really feel like they looked at everything.

There’s contraindications like thyroid cancer and other diseases where these drugs are definitely contraindicated and the side effects are uncomfortable for many people. The nausea also have difficulty building muscle mass. Okay. A lot of fatigue. So in my clinical practice in Miami beach, we actually do offer a second peptide to help these people called body protective compound 157. Now, this has been in the market since the 70s. It’s traditionally been injectable, and it helps with tendon.

Like I would usually give it in place of PRP for somebody over 50 to help with tendonitis or other orthopedic injuries. But since September 29, the FDA clamped down on a lot of injectable peptides, and this happened to be one of them. So we offer this in an oral tablet form in a 90 day cycle. And so what we found is this will help people increase their energy.

It helps repair the gut lining because they’re now taking it as an oral tablet instead of an injection. And it helps the gut brain axis and also helps with some mental energy as well as physical energy. So this is something that we are doing that a lot of other places aren’t. It seems so much more conducive to weight loss as well. I wrote it down. Lack of muscle mass and fatigue as side effects.

That doesn’t seem to be very consistent with weight loss, does it? Yeah, it’s difficult for them to maintain. So what I’ve heard now is that some people are taking these drugs on a weekly basis, and then once they reach their target weight, they are taking them on a monthly basis to prevent that. So just like you said, just like you predicted, that’s exactly what’s, Sarah, in light of this and these concerns that you have, and again, I like the way you take it.

You take a very measured approach with it. What is sort of the right way of talking to people about issues of weight loss and health? What gets to the root of it, as it were? Well, number one, if you’re overweight, you don’t have an ozempic deficiency, you don’t have a Manjaro deficiency, you don’t have a metformin deficiency. What you have is a poor lifestyle. Don’t tell me that.

No evil people don’t want to hear that they can’t be snacking and watching tv all night, that they have to go to bed early. They don’t want to hear that they can’t stay up until one or two in the morning. I haven’t been able to do that in the last, since I turned 40. I haven’t been able to stay up past 09:00. Basically. Yes, I know. That’s exactly.

It’s funny you say it because it’s exactly what I got confronted with. It’s like, dude, literally, you are what you eat. You are your lifestyle. Yeah, exactly. I would say part of it, what happens is when you are obese, you have to eat whatever it is, 4000 calories a day to maintain that. And the brain gets stuck thinking that that’s what you need. So when you cut back to like 1500 calories, which is probably what most people really need, the less you consume and your body gets to a weight that it just likes to be without over consuming calories, that’s like the set up for long term success.

And that’s what actually helps longevity is consuming the least amount of calories that are nutrient packed. That’s key, right? Exactly. Yeah, I definitely could see it. So tell us a little bit about your practice. What’s different about how you approach the issue of weight loss and how does your philosophical approach address the root causes also to maintain weight loss long term? Okay, sure. I started my coaching programs in 2021.

I was actually doing it for free in 2020. And then I started charging. I started figuring out that, hey, this is a really cool way I can help a lot of people. So it’s a three pronged approach. And I developed this successful program way before any of these weight loss drugs were on the market. The number one is, of course, lifestyle, diet and exercise, like I mentioned. Number two, hormones.

Because if you are a man with low t or a woman with poor thyroid estrogen progesterone imbalances, you’re not going to lose weight no matter how much you diet or exercise. And then third is I test brain chemistry because a lot of people emotionally eat, especially when I work with women, they’re emotional eaters. And a lot of times it’s because they lack intimacy or lack of sex. They turn to food.

And a lot of times men will be emotional eaters in response to stress. Men have a lot on their plate. They have to provide for an entire family. And think of the metaphor that you use too, right? A lot on the plate. Yeah, that’s funny, but it fits perfectly exactly what you’re saying. Yeah. So I wrote that book, the seven x method, because I started all my coaching clients on this seven day reset that was based on a diet that I learned in Central America.

And what I found was they were waiting for their tests to come in the mail before we could take them. So we started with nutrition, and in the seven days my clients were losing a pant size, their aches and pains were going away. They wanted to keep going beyond the seven days. So that’s how I started with the book. So the nutrition, it’s not just a nutrition. It’s about circadian rhythms and feeding your organs and systems at certain times of day.

Getting up in the morning, looking at the sun grounding, using the earth’s electrons to get your electrons all calibrated. It’s back to a literal. I was actually just doing an article on this. It’s literally retraditionalization. We’re all going back. We’re kind of done being cyborgs. We like our technology just like this, as a servant. But when it becomes a master, it really does alienate us from our ecology and who we are as human beings.

And that’s what I love about what you’re doing. Thank you. Yeah, I mean, it works for 90% of people. When you address the lifestyle and they start feeling how good they feel, then we get their hormones aligned, and then finally, the brain chemistry. For example, genetics, alcoholism runs in some families. So when we take this brain chemistry test, somebody who is maybe an alcoholic, they may see that they have really high glutamate and really low gaba production.

That’s just the way their genetics produce. These enzymes produce the neurotransmitters, and that’s the way they’re predispositioned. So these people tend to self medicate with alcohol, because alcohol binds with the gaba receptors, it mimics the gaba that they’re supposed to be making, but they’re not. So it’s the same way with ADHD, OCD, depression. We look at the brain and we look at what chemicals aren’t being made. We look at the nutrient deficiencies.

And when people start balancing these, it’s like they get off a hamster wheel. And the results for the brain chemistry intervention, they feel better in two weeks. That’s what makes this a long term, successful program. These two tests, the tests that I do with the hormones that analyzes your stress response, your five alpha reductase enzyme, your five beta reductase enzyme, those are really important for men, conversion of testosterone to dihydro DHT, the active form, and then also for women, progesterone.

You’re not going to get these tests from your doctor. And same thing with the brain chemistry, you can’t get these anywhere else. And that’s what makes my program so powerful, and it sets people up for success long term. But I find it fascinating as well, is you’re also very much interested in customizing it to individual health. One of the issues I have, I guess intuitively I’m a doctor, but not the doctor that can help people.

But when you have someone like Oprah who’s taking drugs like ozempic and so mean being on the pharma dole, as it were, it’s basically a one size fits all approach. Take this. Here you go. Take this and call me in the morning. Right. Whereas it seems to overlook the individual health needs of the person, which is something that seems that your approach really centers in on the individual need.

Absolutely everything is tailor fit. I teach my clients how to help themselves for a lifetime so they won’t need to depend on other doctors or chase specialists or try to get this one specialist to talk to the other specialist and try to get their doctors to come together and actually see what’s going on. I teach them how to help themselves and help themselves for a lifetime. You’ve been working with a lot of turley talkers of late.

Are you seeing a difference in attitude towards health among patriots? Are conservatives taking their health more seriously? I like to think that conservatives in general tend to take more self responsibility. I think back to when I was in school getting my doctorate. It was a seven year journey. My boyfriend at the time was a multimillionaire. And I think now he’s developing an island. He’s doing great. But he could have very easily, yeah, he’s doing great.

Good influence. He was good influence for me, but he could have very easily said, hey, here’s some money for rent so you can relax when you get off school. But he never did. He never helped me. He pushed me to work evenings and weekends because he told me that success is, it means more when you’ve sacrificed and you’ve made that change. And I think that conservatives tend to have that perspective when you look at economic policy.

Right? Like dems and liberals, they want to give a man a fish. They have this external locus of control. Oh, it was his fault. It was their fault. If they hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t have done that. But if you look at republicans and conservatives, we teach Amanda Fish, we have this internal locus of control. And that probably comes from our christian roots where we know that God gives us talents and it’s up to us to use them and create a life for ourselves.

Right. So I have great success with your clients. I actually drop some of my screening processes that I use for the general public because I know that your followers are ten steps ahead of other people. Wow. Oh, that’s awesome. Yeah, that’s very cool. So cool and so interesting. Right before this, it’s a video I’m dropping later today on Russell Brand and how he’s turning to Christ more and more.

He’s actually talking about it quite openly right now and it’s very similar to what you’re saying. He was a fast and loose Hollywood star living just falling on his face and the fame and the fortune and so forth. Very liberal. But now he’s moving much more in a conservative direction and taking life very morally seriously. And the profundity of how he’s able to encounter reality and live a fruitful life, it’s so fascinating.

It’s just so beautiful to watch. I mean, well, we’ve been doing it for a couple of thousand years so I’m sure it’s a tried and true path. Gang. Remember, I did this. I got control of my health.
