 | | GLP-1 and diet: evidence-based strategies for better weight loss GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide and liraglutide promote significant weight loss and improved glycemic control, particularly in patients with type 2 diabetes, when combined with tailored dietary strategies. Optimizing macronutrient intake, fiber, hydration, and meal timing can enhance the therapeutic benefits of GLP-1 RAs and mitigate common gastrointestinal side effects, supporting sustainable clinical outcomes. | | | | New molecule linked to muscle loss in people with type 2 diabetes Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have discovered a previously unknown molecule that may explain why people with type 2 diabetes often suffer from muscle weakness and muscle loss - a condition that has a major impact on quality of life and overall health. | | | | MIT develops implantable device to automatically release emergency glucagon For people with Type 1 diabetes, developing hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, is an ever-present threat. When glucose levels become extremely low, it creates a life-threatening situation for which the standard treatment of care is injecting a hormone called glucagon. | | | | Innovative wristband offers continuous monitoring of multiple health indicators for diabetes A new wearable wristband could significantly improve diabetes management by continuously tracking not only glucose but also other chemical and cardiovascular signals that influence disease progression and overall health. | |

| |  | | Weight-loss drugs have surged in popularity, promising rapid results with regular injections. Now, researchers from Japan report a way for the body to make its own weight-loss drugs, doing away with injections in favor of a one-time treatment. | | | | Japanese adults with a high genetic risk for type 2 diabetes who consumed 100% fruit juice at least once per week had significantly lower odds of developing the disease. The inverse association was not seen in people with low or moderate genetic risk, highlighting gene-diet interactions. | | | | Prediabetes affects a third of people in the United States and most of them will develop Type 2 diabetes, yet effective dietary intervention strategies remain limited. | |
