Dr. Brewer, I watched this video 3 times, and I still failed to understand: when you talk about the "impact" of Jardiance on kidney - is it a positive or a negative impact? Can Jardiance worsen the kidney condition in people with borderline low eGFR (on or just above 60)?
I'm kind of in the same boat with that question. The video just shows Jardiance lowers cardiovascular events, but it doesn't seem to have an answer on what it does to kidneys.
From the manufacturer website (Lilly) "JARDIANCE can cause some people to become dehydrated (the loss of body water and salt). Dehydration may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, light-headed, or weak, especially when you stand up. Sudden worsening of kidney function has happened in people who are taking JARDIANCE." From an FDA website "Use of JARDIANCE is not recommended when eGFR is persistently less than 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 and is contraindicated in patients with an eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2" From a European website "Jardiance should not be initiated in patients with an eGFR below 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or CrCl
The question is why are you eating high carb meals in the first place? Think about what you're saying. Taking x supplement to potentiate the negative effects of y. Get rid of y and you won't need x
Perhaps Dr. Brewer should change the title of this vlog. When I first read it I thought that it was about new evidence that certain antidiabetics were causing kidney damage. If I hadn't watched the video that is what I would have come away with and would have shared with others.
Dr. Brewer, does Januvia provide any heart protection like GLIP-1's and SGLT-2's? My doctor said Jardiance has too many side effects and he gave me Januvia. Your comments much appreciated.

Is he saying the drug worked because there was less kidney damage when on the drug than a placebo?? That was my take on it.
I hear bad cases of ozempic face happening. Many complain it has made them look old. I wonder if maybe its just the rapid weight loss.
What are your thoughts on taking sodium-bound racemic alpha lipoic acid with high carbohydrate meals?

I hope that there will be a comparison with prolonged fasting in a randomized controlled trial vs sglt2 or combination

I’m lost
No kidding. Not a very clear message here. Are kidneys negatively impacted or not?

Januvia lowers blood glucose by boosting insulin production - maybe not ideal if you're already insulin-resistant.
Yes what?
