  • 189. The Surprising Biomarker That’s Changing How Researchers Understand T1D
    Have you ever wondered: What if, in those early days after diagnosis, there was something you could do to help protect the insulin your body still makes? In this episode, we’re exploring exactly that. I'm joined by Ulf Hannelius, CEO of Diamyd Medical, to talk about a therapy that could be a game-changer for people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. It's called GAD therapy, and it's currently being studied in the DIAGNODE-3 clinical trial. We dig into the science behind this investigational treatment and the hope it offers for preserving the body’s remaining insulin production. Ulf not only explains the research in simple terms, but also shares his vision for the future of T1D. We know how overwhelming diabetes research can feel, but this is one conversation everyone in the T1D community should hear, especially if you or someone you love is facing a new diagnosis.Quick Takeaways:The latest research aiming to protect insulin production after a type 1 diabetes diagnosisA clear breakdown of Diamyd Medical’s GAD therapy and the DIAGNODE-3 trial — what it is, who it's for, and why it offers hope for the future of T1DWhat’s actually happening inside the body of someone newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetesDefining T1D terms you’ve probably heard but no one ever defines: Honeymoon phase, C-peptide, Stage 3 Type 1 Diabetes, Antigen-specific therapy, GAD65 + more 📚Read more about the DIAGNODE-3 trial + see what else Diamyd has been up to recently here! ***Disclaimer: Interested in participating in the trial?

  • 185. Can the Pancreas Heal Itself? What You Need to Know About the Latest T1D Breakthrough
    Today I’m joined by Dr. Juan Domínguez-Bendala, someone I know we’ll all be hearing a lot more about in the T1D world. He’s the Director of the Pancreatic Regeneration and Stem Cell Laboratory at the Diabetes Research Institute in Miami. His team just made headlines with a huge breakthrough: using a small peptide called THR-123 to regenerate insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This could be an entirely new approach to treating, and even potentially reversing, type 1 diabetes. We know how emotional and complex the topic of a cure can be, and sometimes disheartening when updates are few and far between. That’s why sharing research-focused conversations like this matters so much– so our community can stay informed, feel seen, and keep hope alive for what’s happening behind the scenes. If this episode resonates with you, please share it so it can reach every person living with or impacted by T1D.Quick Takeaways:The biggest breakthrough for a T1D cure that has been made in awhile: THR-123 Milestones in diabetes research over the last two decades How this could shape the future of regenerative treatment for T1DRole of AI in diabetes research How to support diabetes research and stay informed 🔍Keep up with the Diabetes Research Institute 's cure-focused research & progress towards a cure by subscribing to their newsletter HERE.📲Stay connected: Follow me @lauren_bongiorno and @riselyhealth on Instagram to stay in the loop when new episodes drop.📩Send us a DM: Share your takeaways, questions about the episode and/or ideas for our next recording via direct message on IG to either account linked above. 💻Apply for coaching and talk to our team so you can reclaim the life you deserve. 📖Learn more about today’s topic.
