101: Diabetes Research Bites: Sulfonylureas & Meals Driving Morning Glucose Spikes

This episode covers Diabetes Research Bites exploring new research shaping the future of diabetes care, and not all of it is good news. Dr. Jedha breaks down new evidence showing that one long-standing class of diabetes drugs may increase heart disease risk and harm the very beta cells needed to produce insulin. She also exposes another round of misleading, industry-funded “food miracle” research.

The episode then explores the growing concern of medication use in children as the drug Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is tested in kids as young as 10, raising serious ethical and safety questions about long-term effects. Finally, Dr. Jedha closes with encouraging insights, two studies revealing how your evening meal can directly influence your morning blood sugar, offering a practical strategy anyone can act on right away.
