Starting point is 00:00:00 This has been one of the most shared series in the history of the Jamie Kernlima show and brand new today, back by popular demand. She's often called the top menopause doctor in the world. Dr. Mary Claire Haver is here in this part four menopause master class episode where today we're talking all things GLP1s. Those are the weight loss and weight management drugs that are taking the world by storm. Are they right for you? What are the risks versus rewards? All the things your doctor might have forgotten to mention. We are going there today.

Starting point is 00:00:36 And whether you're listening for yourself or because someone you love shared this episode with you, I want to welcome you to the Jamie Kernley-Mishel podcast family. Ozempic, We Govi, Majaro, Majaro, Zepbound. GLP Ones are a class of medications that are peptides found naturally in the body. They've been around for over 20 years. We have all of that safety data. They're blocking the things that drive us to eat. It's also blocking things that drive us to drink,

Starting point is 00:01:05 our drive us to gamble, kind of these compulsive behaviors, wonderful studies coming out on the mental health benefits of GL-1s. It slows the food emptying from the stomach. It's really, for my patients, been miraculous. Muscle mass has a dramatic loss through perimenopause. Body fat has seized a tremendous uptick and increase in the percentage. of body fat across the menopause transition. We're losing muscle and gaining fat just from being menopausal people. Right now, 1.2 billion women are in perimenopause or menopause,

Starting point is 00:01:38 and whether or not you're experiencing this personally in your life right now, I guarantee you someone in your life is. Can you get GLP-1s covered by insurance if you're not obese? It's getting harder. POST of these medications, it's outrageous. It's like $1,000 a month. It's ridiculous. coupons are coming, but just to demonize a patient and tell her it's her willpower is one of the biggest tragedies in the history of medicine. Which now with the obesity genes, all these other things, they're proving it's not willpower. No, it's not willpower. And I was taught in that generation of it's her fault.

Starting point is 00:02:13 Yeah. She's just lazy until, I believe that my whole life. Like, oh, I'm gaining weight, it's definitely my fault. You know, I've been tested for the obesity genes now and actually two of them and I'm like, oh, you know, and then your brain works differently. There's so much science. The entire biological drive is working against you. GLP-1s are far superior to metformin. Do you prescribe both to your patients or you predominantly do GLP-1s?

Starting point is 00:02:38 If somebody's doctor says no. No? If somebody's, like if they go to their doctor and say, I'm really, really interesting. You're not working hard enough? In GLP-1s and they go, oh, you should just work out and eat better. And then you turn around and tell them, I'm doing that. And they say, no, you can't be. Therefore, you wouldn't be obese.

Starting point is 00:02:54 Then you need to find a new doctor. What are some of the resources that exist online? Because there's now through telehealth, you can get prescriptions in other ways. Because it's not just take this medication, woo, go be thin and off you go. It is really rewiring your brain. A lot of people worry about like ozempic face or ozempic. Is that simply just you've massive weight loss? You've lost weight fast.

Starting point is 00:03:16 Right. And when you lose weight fast, the elasticity of the skin struggles to keep up. Yeah. And so we see more of the hanging skin. So GLP1s don't change your feet. face or your body. That's more the result of weight loss from weight loss. Yeah. Okay. I think it's a misconception out there. They're like, wait, I don't want to get that. With GL-1's the risk of losing muscle because if we're not eating enough, we might not be eating enough protein. We might not be lifting weights and you talk about how critical it is. Prioritize your protein. Strong over skinny.

Starting point is 00:03:47 Okay. They're falling crying in my office when I'm like, you're amazing. Oh my God, look at all this muscle. I can think about the times in my life where I've been the thinnest. I've felt the worst. I have felt the worst. And I've also felt so hard to maintain. The least confident, the least confident too. I feel like the more we're focused on the wrong things, the more insecure we feel. You look at the data, it's like 91% of girls and women, literally opt out of meaningful activities in their life when they're worried about how they look or they don't like how they look. And I just feel like we've bought into diet culture in the wrong way for so long. It's just a hack. It's such an easy hack that almost anybody can do. I want to just

Starting point is 00:04:22 announce it to the world. You're hearing it first here. that menopause is ineffable, but suffering is not, and you can make a change.

Oprah, how have you defied the odds? Her show is unlike any I've ever done. A revelation. When you listen, it feels like a hug, but your brain and your spirit and your heart is like, wow. Melinda French, the gate.

Starting point is 00:08:06 When I look into Jamie's eyes, I feel like I am on some other cosmic level with her. I could see the light around her. She's infused with light. Imagine overcoming self-doubt, learning to believe in yourself and trust yourself and know you are enough. Welcome to the Jamie Kern-Lima show. Jamie Kern-Lima is her name. Everybody needs Jamie Kurn Lema in their life.

Starting point is 00:08:32 Jamie Kern-Lima. Jamie, you're so inspiring. Jamie Kern-Lima. When it comes to belly fat, weight gain, visceral fat, all of the symptoms. associated with weight gain that come with paramenopause and menopause. And when it comes to GLP-1s, I want to ask you about this because this is an issue facing so many people. And one of the biggest questions I get, and I am not a doctor, I get people asking me about GLP-1s all the time, meaning Ozempic, Wigovie, Majaro, Majaro, Zep bound, all of them. So GLU-Tide,

Starting point is 00:09:14 So, GLP-1s are a class of medications that are peptides found naturally in the body. So when I was researching for the Galveston Diet, my first book, and I was looking at the hormones that affect where and how we gain weight. And I was kind of astounded, not only is it insulin, but things like leptin and ghrelin that control our hunger and drive fat to certain areas. And then things like GL-1s and hormone P-PY. So what science has been able to do is pull out that, you know, make the GLP1, which is a natural peptide, and get it into a form that it actually lasts longer in the body.

Starting point is 00:09:51 So natural GLP1s actually only have a half-life of a few minutes. You know, your body creates it, and within like two or three minutes, it's out of your system. It gets used and done. With the commercially available GLP-1s in the medication form, they've been able to tag them where they can last for about a week. So we're seeing the benefits of what they do for us in a very short term when we create them in the body, and they can extend the life of that benefit forever. They've been around for over 20 years. They've been using the treatment of diabetes for 20 years.

Starting point is 00:10:20 They've known about these medications forever. So we have all of that safety data. What happened was we've known forever that people who are adequately treated for their diabetes lose weight. And they were starting to do testing to see if people who were non-diabetics, would they lose weight as well, who were obese? Okay.

Starting point is 00:10:37 And as we know now, yes, it worked. very, very, very well. And so then the frenzy kind of started. It was the next like WHI study, right? And what was the bigger medical news story last year or year before than the use of what was OZMPIC for the treatment of obesity? And how would that help? You know, and it turns out when we, you know, GLP1 seemed to have independent action in the brain, they're blocking the things that drive us to eat. It's also blocking things that drive us to drink, are drive us to gamble, kind of these compulsive behaviors, wonderful studies coming out

Starting point is 00:11:11 on the mental health benefits of GOP-1s. Also on, it slows the food emptying from the stomach. So food stays longer and the tummy longer, which is why we see some of the nausea and some of the other issues with GOP-1s. But when you slow food down, you're not as hungry, right? The tummy is feeling full and is feeding back other chemicals to the brain saying,

Starting point is 00:11:31 we're good, we don't need to eat. That drive to eat the next meal decreases. When we slow things down, we also decrease how fast the food is being absorbed into the system, blood system. So we're seeing lower insulin spikes. I mean, everything kind of gets better when you've struggled with those things before that were driving people's obesity. And it's really, for my patients, been miraculous.

Starting point is 00:11:55 Absolutely miraculous. So when I first opened, GLP ones were not kind of a thing back then. I knew about them because I went to medical school. But it was another, anything I ever considered learning about or introducing into my practice because that was for diabetes and we treat menopause and not diabetes, but the majority of my patients were coming in with either new or continuing issues with weight, especially the new fat gain. So what happens across the menopause tend in a beautiful study done in 2019,

Starting point is 00:12:24 studied 1,200 women across the transition, tracked their hormone levels, and tracked their body fat, their visceral, their total body fat, and their muscle mass, and their BMI. And what they saw is this S-shaped curve, So when they were, their muscle mass has a dramatic loss through perimenopause, and then it continues to decline, but that stabilizes the loss. Their body fat has seized a tremendous uptick and increase in the percentage of body fat across the menopause transition.

Starting point is 00:12:55 And then, but the weight gain is steady state. So we're losing muscle and gaining fat just from being menopausal people. If you look at visceral fat distribution, which is where I kind of, zone in on. A woman can expect to have 8% of her body fat is visceral fat when she's premenopausal, and we take her twin, who doesn't go through menopause till five years later, okay? Her risk increases to 23%. And that's the dangerous fat in your... That is the fat that is inflammatory and link to hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, stroke, all of the cardiometabolic diseases. That is the fat that is dangerous. Subcutaneous fat is actually not that harmful. It gives us

Starting point is 00:13:34 curves. We're cosmetically distressed by it. We've been conditioned to think it's bad. It's horrible, but it really more represents just our beautiful genetic expression of our bodies, our natural curves. It's the intra-abdominal fat where I get nervous and I start talking about diabetes. And so when my patients are coming in with elevated visceral fat, we start them on hormone therapy, we give them a nutrition plan. We do all the things. And for about 60% of our patients, they do great with that. That's all they needed, especially if they'd never had a weight problem before. You know, if fat distribution was not a problem before menopause, we give them hormones, we teach them all about nutrition and things we need to change in menopause, and they do great. But another 30%, the last 30 to 35% are still struggling,

Starting point is 00:14:16 still have elevated risk factors for, you know, chronic disease. And then we start the GLP1 conversation with them. Now, what's happening is GOP1s are becoming widely available, and I don't think patients are getting the right counseling. We spent another hour, with her, talking about muscle mass and loss and what happens with when your hunger cues go down and really making yourself eat enough protein. It's time to get to the gym. But with the mental health changes going along with the medication, I have never seen my patients more motivated to stick to a plan.

Starting point is 00:14:47 So you're passionate about GLP-1. Yes. They get it. They get it. It's happening. They're going to the gym. They're focusing on their muscle mass. They're buying the home scales and measuring their muscle mass at home, which aren't quite as accurate

Starting point is 00:14:59 is my fancy machine in the office, but it's something. And they're learning to track health and not weight. And it is absolutely miraculous. So we do use them in clinic judiciously. We give incredible amounts of guidance. We're tracking muscle mass and fat loss through the process. And our patients who are choosing to do it are doing really well. Can you get GLP ones covered by insurance if you're not obese?

Starting point is 00:15:24 It depends on the insurance company. And what's happened is the generosity, generosity, it's getting. harder. So I was having patients who had pre-diabetes and things and having it covered, but that is getting harder and harder. The cost of these medications is outrageous. And when you look at the global economics of it, to get it in the UK is like, I want to say like $100 a month. Like it is, you know, what the UK is able to get it for because they negotiated with Novo Nordisk is so much less than what in the U.S. were just the cash cow. It's like $1,000 a month. It's Ridiculous. And most of my patients, that is a really, really hard thing for them.

Starting point is 00:16:04 Now, again, more coupons are coming. I just had a patient call me and say she was able to get the pens for 500, and that was a lot more affordable. But still, for, you know, the sweet lady listening on Ohio, she's like, what do I do? Okay, so good news is that, you know, things in administration with the government, it's all about government contracts and how much they can get it for, you know, the head of the treasury for, I think North Carolina, did this wonderful man, came out and said, if we were able to give every patient who deserved it, a GOP one, it would bankrupt our state at the current cost. It cost them about $2 to make those pens and put the medicine in it. And they're charging over $1,000.

Starting point is 00:16:45 The markup is outrageous. But this is a supply and demand issue. So I'm hopeful that whatever the new administration and all the policy changes that are happening, one of the things hopefully that we'll see is better negotiation to get these prices to come. down so we can make this medication available to more patients. Do I wish we lived in a world like 50 years ago when only 10% of people would need this medication to be healthier? You know, there's so

Starting point is 00:17:11 many things that feed into why this country is struggling so much with obesity and multiple other cuts, it's not just us. You know, we live in an obesitygenic society. The most readily and cheap food available is the food that is trying to kill us, you know. They're heavily processed foods, you know, and so all of this is feeding into it. But just to demonize a patient and tell her it's her willpower. Yeah. Is one of the biggest tragedies in the history of medicine. Which now with the obesity genes, all these other things, they're proving it's not willpower.

Starting point is 00:17:38 No. It's not willpower. And I was taught in that generation of it's her fault. Yeah. She's just lazy until, I believe that my whole life. Like, oh, I'm gaining weight. It's definitely my fault. You know, I've been tested for the obesity genes now and I actually have two of them.

Starting point is 00:17:54 And I'm like, oh, you know, and your brain works differently. Right. There's so much science. The entire biological drive. is working against you. Yeah. And it's really the rare person without cutting everything else in their life. How can you be a balanced human being and a mother and do carpal and do all the things?

Starting point is 00:18:09 And fight these two genes. Okay, this is big. I got to ask you this with all the studies on GLP1s because so many people now are, you know, saying, oh, I really, really want to try to do, you know, Zepbound or OZempic or any of those drugs out there. For a lot of the studies on them, I've heard that we need to pause for a super brief break. and while we do, take a moment to share this episode with every single woman that you know because this information can truly change your life and hers.

And now more of this incredible conversation together. Okay, this is big. I've got to ask you this with all the studies on GLP ones because so many people now are you know, saying, oh, I really, really want to try to do, you know, Zepbound or O-Zemphic or any of those drugs out there. For a lot of the studies on them, I've heard that a lot of the people studied were actually also on metformin when they got those results. Is that true? And what are you

Starting point is 00:22:56 I'm not sure. I haven't, you know, I'd have to ask my endocrine friends. Metformin, so when I talk to like my endocrine gurus, yeah, they say metformin is a very poor man's GLP one, that when you look at visceral fat loss, when you look at, you know, diabetic control, that GLP-1s are far superior to metformin. Do you prescribe both to your patients or you predominantly do GLP-1s? If somebody's doctor says no.

Starting point is 00:23:26 No? If somebody's, like if they go to their doctor and say I'm really, really interested. You're not working hard enough? In GLP-1s and they go, oh, you should just work out and eat better. And then you turn around and tell them, I'm doing that.

Starting point is 00:23:37 Right. And they say, no, you can't be. Therefore, you wouldn't be obese. Then you need to find a new doctor. You need to find a new doctor. And what are some of the resources that exist online? Because there's now through telehealth and through other ways. You can get prescriptions in other ways.

Starting point is 00:23:53 Alexandra Soa has written an incredible book called The OZMPIC Revolution. And it's not just about OZMPIC, but she goes through the history, the causes of obesity. And, you know, she has resources on how to help you. find a clinician who's educated. And she's absolutely, she also goes through nutrition, exercise. You know, she goes through her toolkit as well. Because it's not just take this medication, woo, go be thin and off you go. It is really rewiring your brain.

Starting point is 00:24:20 Right. With this new tool, it's a tool. It's nothing more than to help you kind of reconfigure your life. So you live in a less obisogenic world. A lot of people worry about like, ozempic face or ozempic. Is that simply just you've massive weight loss? You blast weight fast. Right. And when you lose weight fast, the elasticity of the skin struggles to keep up.

Starting point is 00:24:42 Yeah. And so we see more of the hanging skin. And I've seen in some of my patients, you know, they're coming and complaining. And what we're hoping is that, you know, once your weight stabilizes, as long as you feed that collagen and, you know, nutrition and everything's on point, if you're not malnourished, that the elasticity will kind of catch up and we won't see as much as the sag. So GLP ones don't change your face or your body. That's more the result of weight loss. from weight loss. Yeah. Okay. I think it's a misconception out there. They're like, wait, I don't want to get that. I don't want my face to change. And then they're putting other things in to fill and, you know, it is a little bit of a catch. But, you know, when people, we know from the Astrook

Starting point is 00:25:21 bypass patients who had massive weight loss quickly, this is the exact same phenomenon. That was the same thing. You know, you talk about both with GL-1s, the risk of losing muscle. Because if we're not eating enough, we might not be eating enough protein. We might not be lifting weights. And you talk about how critical it is. Prioritize your protein. Strong over skinny. Okay, share all this with us. You know, I grew up in the 80s.

Starting point is 00:25:44 Everything was about aerobics. I was teaching step aerobics. I didn't pick up a weight, Jamie, until I, and it was little tiny hand weights, right, for Zumba. I didn't even think about my muscle mass. I was always thinking about be thin, be thin, be thin. It was the whole reason I moved my body to work out was to be thin because thin was healthy, right? I had been privileged.

Starting point is 00:26:03 I wanted to hang on to it. now what I realize is that this whole generation was chipping away at their bone and muscle strength, unless you were like a unicorn college athlete or something, you know, and that women, when I put them on the body scanner and they're athletic and they're like really muscular and they've been told their whole life, they were obese and overweight, they're bawling crying in my office. When I'm like, you're amazing. Oh my God, look at all this muscle. They're like, I've always felt fat.

Starting point is 00:26:27 I'm like, no, you're so healthy. So like helping people develop habits and it's really a mind shift. to get away from eating for strength, eating for strong, eating for your old lady body, rather than eating to have some random, you know, thin body that is cosmetically appealing to a certain percentage of the population is a really huge gift I am giving to my patients. It's so good. And I know you've talked about this with younger women, but it's really all women. I mean, you know, so often I can think about the times in my life where I've been the thinnest.

Starting point is 00:27:01 I've felt the worst. Yeah. I have felt the worst. And I've also felt so hard to maintain. The least confident, the least confident, too. I feel like the more we're focused on the wrong things, the more insecure we feel. You look at the data. It's like 91% of girls and women literally opt out of meaningful activities in their life when

Starting point is 00:27:17 they're worried about how they look or they don't like how they look. And I just feel like we've bought into diet culture in the wrong way for so long. I love that you talk about how critical it is to focus on being strong over skinny and how it not only change, it changes all parts of your physical and your emotional and mental health and your joy. So is that what you focus on now in your life? Yeah. So mostly when I do cardio, I just throw on my weighted vest and I jump on the treadmill and I'll do a Zoom call or I'm just walking and reading or I'm, you know, doing internet stuff and I've turned my treadmill at home into a walking desk. So that's my cardio or I'll go walk with my girlfriends on the weighted

Starting point is 00:27:58 vest. Tell us about that. So when I was seeing all my, you know, I'm working. You know, I'm recommending earlier Dexas scans for my patients. And so I was looking to see what do we know works? What works for women to avoid osteoporosis or to help with their osteoporosis? And I ran across two or three articles talking about using weighted vests on women in nursing homes and how they're seeing improvement in their bone and muscle strength, their balance and decreased fragility. And I was like, what do these things look like? So I go on Amazon and find one.

Starting point is 00:28:25 I order one. I start wearing it all around Galveston and I start talking about it on the internet. And then suddenly I become the queen of the weighted vest. You know, they even wrote about it in a newspaper article. And all my friends have them. We see people on the seawall in Galveston. Hey, you know, we're walking with our weight of vest on. But, you know, the body responds to resistance in a positive way.

Starting point is 00:28:46 And that weighted vest will put pressure on the axial skeleton. And so what we worry about in osteoporosis is spinal fractures and hip fractures. So we're putting the weight where we need it to put that little extra stimulus to get stronger for both the bones and the muscles. So it's just a hack. It's such an easy hack that almost anybody can do. I love seeing you on Instagram with your weighted best of doing all your content. You know, I want to thank you for the force for women, the force for health, the force for awareness that you are into the world.
