My guest today is Ben Loos, he's a professor at Stellenbosch University and leads a neuro research group.  His team focuses on neurodegenerative diseases and brain cancers, with a major focus on autophagy Autophagy is the body's way of cleaning out damaged cells, in order to regenerate newer, healthier cells – a process which is essential to good health. Ben's research is at a particularly exciting stage right now as he is busy developing a device that will enable us to measure our autophagy rate – much as we can measure our resting heart rate or our glucose levels.  He is CEO of a start up called Phagoflux which will bring this product to market. Knowing our autophagy rate can make a big difference and will motivate us to strive for a healthy lifestyle  –for example if we see it is too low then we can do something about it – we can do some exercise or we can implement a 12 hour fast. Of course I asked Ben about what impact alcohol has on the autophagy process as well as other aspects of our health.  In this episode:- Health Risks of Alcohol: Excessive alcohol consumption is linked to various diseases, including cancer and neurodegeneration, due to its stress-inducing effects on cells and interference with processes like memory consolidation and sleep. Effects on Memory and Aging: Alcohol impairs both short-term and long-term memory formation, and chronic consumption accelerates brain aging, increasing susceptibility to neurodegenerative diseases like dementia. Alcohol Dependence and Blackouts: Regular heavy drinking can lead to alcohol dependence and blackouts, which indicate severe brain impairment and are precursors to brain damage. Particularly dangerous as we get older Alcohol and Autophagy: Alcohol abuse can impair autophagy due to oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Thinking about our general health: Quitting alcohol leads to significant improvements in health, including liver regeneration, reduced inflammation, and better immune function, emphasizing the importance of avoiding alcohol dependency, especially as one ages. With an autophagy monitoring device like Phagoflux we could monitor our personal autophagy levels, just like checking our blood pressure or glucose levels. If the levels are high, it's a good sign that our cellular cleaning mechanism is functioning optimally. But if it's low, then interventions like exercise or dietary changes could help boost autophagy and improve cellular health. It's all about empowering us to take control of our wellness at a cellular level and I think many of us ex drinkers are keen to take action to heal our bodies and brains as much as we can. Autophagy in Healing: Autophagy plays a vital role in cellular healing by removing damaged components and restoring function. Autophagy Monitoring Device: Fagovlux aims to measure personal autophagy levels, crucial for understanding aging. Personalized Autophagy: Understanding one's daily autophagy activity can guide lifestyle choices like diet and exercise. Exercise and Autophagy: Exercise increases autophagy, contributing to healthy aging and reducing disease risk. Intermittent Fasting: Fasting triggers autophagy by sensing a lack of amino acids, promoting cellular repair and health. Of course we already know the basic health rules and we try to stay alcohol free, eat a healthy diet and fast occasionally and exercise regularly. But how motivating would it be to be able to monitor our autophagy rate and see what impact our hard working is having on our health!

Key Quotes“Alcohol and drugs were a way for people to connect with me.”“The worst thing in the world is being with a person that makes you feel alone.”“In the transplant world, someone has to die for you to live.”“These thoughts these feelings you have inside you are cancer, you have to talk about them to get them out.“ More about Johnhttps://lifebridgecoaching.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-weiman-3a109b11 You can get involved with the podcast onlineOn facebook in our community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengesthatchangeusOr on Instagram: @challengesthatchangeusIf you want to contact the podcast, email us here: support@challengesthatchangeus.comOr check out our website: www.Challengesthatchangeus.com If you want to find out more about what Ali does, check out her business via the website:http://www.trialtitudeperformance.com.au For her other business you can find it through the websites:www.altitudefitnessarmidale.com.au@trialtitudeperformance Hosted on Acast.

The rates of alcohol use disorder increased significantly since the onset of COVID-19, making this a major public health issue, though it's not discussed as frequently as opioid overdoses. Over 140,000 Americans die from the effects of alcohol in an average year (more than from drug overdoses). Ten percent of Americans over the age of 12 have Alcohol Use Disorder. And according to the 2023 Alcohol Abuse Statistics, 60% of Americans increased their alcohol consumption during COVID-19 lockdowns. In this podcast, we are joined by Dr. Iilun Murphy, Director of the Office of Generic Drugs in FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), and returning is Dr. Marta Sokolowska, CDER's Deputy Center Director for Substance Use and Behavioral Health to discuss the recent first generic approval to Vivitrol, a one-month extended-release injectable naltrexone that is used to help people recovering from opioid or alcohol dependence.

There is a difference between alcohol use and abuse. There are many individuals that consider themself a social drinker. There are also individuals that have symptoms of alcohol addiction yet are unaware of how such condition can transition into a number of issues. Alcohol abuse can cause symptoms of depression, anxiety, psychosis and antisocial behavior, both during intoxication and during withdrawal. Many individuals have obtained assistance to address their mental health symptoms yet lack to obtain assistance to address their alcohol consumption.  Join myself and others as we provide information regarding alcohol use and it's impact on others. To join in on the conversation call 516 387-1914. I want to hear your thoughts. Hosted by Jeanette Abney LMFT.

  My guest this week is Faye Lawrence who is the founder of Australia's largest alcohol-free community for the sober and the sober curious. Their focus is not so much on the “not drinking” bit but more on the socialising without alcohol bit – which is a real struggle for most people after they quit. They do dinners, bush walks, sober singles nights, live music and ever roller discos.  It sounds like a way to find your vibe as a newly sober person. Another reason I wanted to talk to Faye was because Research is now showing that there are definite links between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)  Faye was recently diagnosed with ADHD and was keen to talk about it In this episode:- Faye Explained that she'd been in therapy for years but it wasn't until she stopped drinking that the healing began She calls sobriety a "portal for growth" - at Tribe Sober we often call it a "springboard for self development" The combination of alcoholism on both sides of her family and the influence of the boozy Uk culture resulted in Faye beginning to drink at 13 She loved partying and found it enabled her to switch off her overactive brain She began working in London which of course meant joining the Work Hard/Play Hard culture Fay had kids quite young and then relocated to Australia Her drinking calmed down a bit after she had children but then ramped up again when she separated from her husband She felt isolated as had no family in Oz and hadn't yet established a friend network With 2 young children and a full time job she was struggling to cope Her kids alternated between Fay and her ex for weekends and when her kids were away Faye just wanted to get obliterated for the entire time For the next 20 years Fay was stuck in the moderation trap – that dreaded cycle that so many of us know The cycle of trying (and failing) to cut down Now and again when she had overdone it she would go to alcohol counselling or an AA meeting or to her GP for naltroxene but her denial was strong and of course she didn't WANT to give up Such a crucial point Faye made there – its no good trying to quit drinking because we think we should or because our partner or doctor has told us to – we have to WANT to quit and realise that we will be so much happier and healthier without it She describes herself as a functioning alcoholic – keeping the career and family going and ticking all the boxes But going to work with terrible hangovers multiple times a week In 2017 her relationship broke down and the kids left home – she was an empty nester and home alone That's when she hit her rock bottom That's when she realized she was no longer in control She didn't care whether she lived or died She didn't even want to drink and she realized the alcohol was no longer doing what she needed it to It wasn't enjoyable, or quelling her anxiety or giving her a break from her overactive mind This made me think of the saying that “sobriety delivers everything that alcohol promised!” In spite of her rock bottom she still couldn't stop drinking Faye's trigger for change was a trip to her therapist who told her that she looked terrible and had to get some help She got admitted to hospital for a detox Faye pointed out that people will be listening to her story and thinking “well I'm not that bad” – she used to think like that but now she realizes that it's a slippery slope If you're on the slippery slope please be smart and step off it as soon as possible – go to tribesober.com and hit join our tribe right now We both love the modern recovery movement and the fact that nobody has to walk into a room full of strangers and say “I am an alcoholic” these days There are so many different paths to sobriety these days which mean that nobody has to wait until they hit rock bottom We both relish the mental peace that sobriety brings – no more endless negotiating with ourselves about whether to drink or not! After her detox Faye threw the book at her sobriety – she took meds, she joined sobriety groups, she want to a counsellor and went to AA She decided to do whatever it took She decided to go into this with an open mind Keeping an open mind is so important – somebody asked me about our Zoom workshop the other day – she was nervous about attending and asked me what on earth we talk about for 4 hours! I suggested she attend with an open mind…and she loved it! We panic because we think we can't survive without our wine but once we join a community and see how other people are loving their alcohol free lives we change our thinking! Our next Zoom workshop is on 22nd July so just go to tribesober.com and hit our services if you want more info It made me smile when Faye said that “she'd never done adult life” – apparently our emotional maturity stalls when we start to drink heavily… Both Faye and I started drinking in our teens so we both had to learn adulting! You heard Faye mention that it was 17 years between realizing that she had a problem and stopping You've probably heard me quoting that study by the Tempest that says the average time is 11 years There is such a basic human need to belong which is why many of us non drinkers can feel marginalized (and maybe why Faye and I both started sobriety communities so we could meet like minded people!) We also agreed that it's a way to see who our friends really are and that it helps to change the format of our social events Replacing boozy lunches and nights out with brunches and coffee meetings for example We agreed that although alcohol is seen as a social lubricant it actually disconnects us and socializing without alcohol leads to more authentic connection A year ago Faye was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 48 Although there are there definite links between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) none of Faye's counsellors every mentioned this or suggested it could be an issue for her She feels a lot of people are suffering unnecessarily due to not being diagnosed Faye listed a few characteristics of the ADHD brain which sees things as “interesting” or “not interesting” and gets bored quickly She feels that anyone who feels they may have ADHD should go to their GP for a referral Faye's top 3 benefits of sobriety were relationship with self, relationship with children and clarity… As she says sobriety makes a space for good things to happen That's something to remember in early sobriety if we feel a bit flat or bored… it's not always going to feel like this and you're making a space for good things to happen Liminal space I think its called… Finally we agreed that the question is not “Am I an Alcoholic”, the question is “Am I living my best life”, Am I the person I want to be You can reach Faye via her website Untoxicated.com.au or via her email which is faye@untoxicated.com.au Episode Sponsor This episode is sponsored by the Tribe Sober Membership Program.  If you want to change your relationship with alcohol then sign up today Read more about our program and subscribe HERE Help us to Spread the Word!

[TW//Gambling, Love Addiction, Alcohol Dependence, Trauma, Abuse] Today I welcome actor and former magician Nicole Hall as we discuss how genetics and environment may have impacted her journey into love, gambling and alcohol addiction. Nicole generously shares how she used fantasy as a way to escape the negative memories and emotions from childhood trauma. Then Nicole discovered she was very gifted in performing and it also served as the perfect escape. This led her to university and much professional acting work, including a semi regular role in BBC's Casualty. Meanwhile, Nicole had known since she was born that she was gay but was desperately afraid to tell her very religious family about her sexuality. When the work dried up, her addictions increased and her mental health plummeted coming to a head in 2015 when an encounter with her mum served as the final wake up call that she had to turn her life around. Nicole is now living a sober, happy and healthy life and hasn't taken a bet since 2020. Her more recent work has spotlighted mental health, addiction and survival. She is co-founder of an emerging black women-led theatre company called Nubian Co-Hearts and is currently working on a play which explores these hard-hitting themes and similar gritty topics. Topics - 0:00 Intro 2:35 Nicole's Rock Bottom 8:18 Nicole's childhood fantasy as a means to escape 14:23 Fantasy is replaced by alcohol 16:30 If I'm gay will I go to hell? 23:32 Acting as a way to escape and live in fantasy 30:15 Getting a "proper job" and breaking down 33:25 What is love addiction? 38:45 Gambling 40:25 How Nicole beat cross addiction 46:18 What does it mean to be powerless? 47:20 Free NHS drug and alcohol services 49:35 Nicole's faith 52:20 Mental health maintenance 54:40 Nicole's female black led theatre company If you've been affected by any of the issues discussed on today's episode Nicole recommends contacting your local NHS drug/alcohol service: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/find-alcohol-addiction-support-services/ This Podcast is not for profit but my goal is to break even.

My guest this week is Tribe Member Jax - an educator who is passionate about her work and who has struggled with both alcohol dependence and burnout.  One of those rare people who only ever has one Day One Jax found Tribe Sober one week into her sobriety and she's been inspiring and motivating our members ever since! In this episode Jax was a late developer when it came to alcohol - coming from a non drinking family and mixing with a serious crowd who didn't drink alcohol was just not "on her radar" as she puts it Things changed when she got to her late 30's/early 40's.  She found herself wanting an "extra glass" of champagne or wine when she was at a restaurant or a dinner party. Her non drinking partner noticed and remarked that she got quite "animated" - even argumentative by the end of the evening Then he came out with that line that so many of us are familiar with "why can't you have just one" Like the rest of us Jax of course tried to have "just one" and in fact there would be a little dialogue going on in her head as she got ready to go out along the lines of "I must just have one tonight" Like the rest of use that rarely worked out - I can still remember that sense of failure because I couldn't have "just one" or even "just three" in my case Thats why you need a sober community - you need people that would never tell you to have "just one" Join tribesober.com to learn to quit completely and then to go on and thrive in sobriety A worrying development for Jax was that she wanted to drink during the week as her habit escalated from occasional to habitual She began to love drinking alone which is a real red flag - moving from using alcohol to socialise to using alcohol to self medicate our stress She was still in denial and would never acknowledge her hangovers which she would write off as a "bit of a headache" As her career developed Jax found herself getting more and more responsibility - working 70 hour weeks This workload was a major trigger for Jax as it left her no time to refresh and recharge with hobbies and personal development. She fell victim to Burnout and her only respite seemed to be putting her feet up with a glass of wine Completely exhausted she could no longer find any pleasure in anything Jax withdrew from her partner and her friends, became isolated and drank more She felt a mix of despair and despondency and knew she would need to quit drinking - she researched into the subject of alcohol dependence and found Tribe Sober  She discovered the power of community and just what it meant to meet people who understood her - they had been in exactly the same situation Jax didn't see her sobriety as a punishment, instead she saw it as an opportunity to change her life and to find herself again - a perfect mindset As Jax so rightly said - if we go into sobriety feeling sorry for ourselves and being annoyed with others for drinking then we are setting ourselves up for failure Day One of sobriety dawned and she never looked back - her first year of sobriety will be completed in December 2022 Jax set boundaries with her friends - she took them out individually to explain her plans and they offered their support We agreed that it was best to be upfront with people and our tribe members often text their friends to explain they won't be drinking that evening Her first month was difficult with detox symptoms and her PAWS lasted several months.  PAWS can include anhedonia so if you suffer from this please listen to Tribe Sober podcasts episode 55 when Dr Loretta Breuning will explain how to keep your happy brain chemicals triggered  More Info Subscription membership – you can join up HERE.

In this episode we talk to Dr Cassie Boness about the idea of ‘Alcohol Use Disorder' (AUD) as a widely applied concept in the identification and treatment of alcohol problems. Alcohol Use Disorder is the basis for identifying an alcohol problem in the American Psychiatric Association's DSM, but also used as a broader term for alcohol-related problems including by the UK's National Institute for Health & Care Excellence (NICE). Cassie is a  Research Assistant Professor at the University of New Mexico's Center on Alcohol, Substance Use and Addictions (CASA) and a clinical psychologist.  We discuss the basis of Alcohol Use Disorder and some of the issues around such attempts to identify the very complex nature of alcohol use and problems. This includes discussion on Cassie and others work on developing a new framework to better identify AUD - the  The Etiologic, Theory-Based, Ontogenetic Hierarchical Framework of Alcohol Use Disorder. 

Marshall McLuhan famously said "The medium is the message." That's where we begin this week.You have probably seen the headlines in recent weeks, "Philadelphia drug supply polluted with Veterinary Tranquilizer." As our self-created "opioid epidemic" continues, we can expect similar drugs to pop up, boogie men for the government and the press to blame for a problem which is designed into the system. Xylazine is a sedative drug which is an analogue (synthesized version) of Clonidine. It can be purchased without a prescription in most US states and is now making its way into the drug supply of many big cities. The first time I heard of Xylazine was in 2012 in this article from the Journal of Urban Health. Back then it was reported to be a huge problem across Puerto Rico, leading to abscessed skin infections and terrible scarring or even death. Now its showing up across the US.  A paper published in April 2022 in the Journal of Drug & Alcohol Dependence showed rates of Xylazine in streets drugs is on the rapid rise.Always test your drugs.
