On this episode I sit down with my friend Dave Knapp, an independent journalist and community leader in the world of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Living with obesity and type 2 diabetes himself, Dave has built a platform dedicated to connecting and educating people using these life-changing peptides. We break down the latest updates on the FDA’s crackdown on compounding pharmacies and what it could mean for the future of GLP-1 access.
We also dive into the shady role of Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) in driving up drug prices, the realities of living with obesity, and why traditional approaches to weight loss often fall short. Dave shares insights from his personal journey, including his experiences with keto and the struggles his community has faced.
On The Dr. Tyna show my goal is to bring you the truth as I know it and always have you leave with a new pearl of health wisdom to expand your knowledge base. They can try to take away our medical liberties, but they can’t take away our knowledge. When you are empowered, you can do better for yourself, your family and your community. Resilience is the name of the game as we embark on human wellness 2.0. New episodes every Wednesday!
