Endurance has been one of the most hotly debated topics in sports science for over three decades. From early research in the 1930s to the ground-breaking 1996 address by Prof. Tim Noakes to the American College of Sports Medicine, understanding the principles of what keeps the body going during prolonged exercise is more complex than you think.

Why estate planning and business succession fail most often has nothing to do with legal documents. It comes down to communication, valuation, and timing. In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, we explore the intersection of estate planning, business succession, and valuation with private client attorney Brian Balduzzi. Brian explains why estate planning is not just for the ultra-wealthy. Every business owner needs core documents in place to protect their family and business: wills, medical and financial powers of attorney, and a plan for what happens to their company. We dig into: How business valuation fits into estate and succession planning When to assemble the right advisor team and who should be at the table The dangers of ignoring valuation for illiquid assets Why failing to communicate plans derails succession efforts How gifting strategies, charitable giving, and legacy intentions shape outcomes Brian also touches on the emotional and human aspects of planning: chosen family considerations, stewardship of wealth, and why planning during life often creates better results than leaving everything to be sorted out later. If you're a business owner, this conversation offers practical steps to start protecting your company and your family today. #EstatePlanning #ProtectYourAssets #FuturePlanning #TaxStrategy #BusinessValuation #FamilyWealth #LifeGoals #LegacyPlanning ----more---- About Our Guest: Brian M.

He is an inventor with 42 patents and over 50 years of breakthroughs across these fields. His career has taken him from developing technologies for NASA and the Beijing Olympics to pioneering solutions in alternative energy and environmental remediation. But it was a deeply personal health challenge that led him to his most life-changing discovery. In 2003, Samuel was diagnosed with a rare, untreatable bone marrow cancer. Conventional medicine offered no viable path forward, so he turned to his lifelong expertise in science and innovation. After years of research, he developed ValAsta, the only patented glycosidic form of astaxanthin designed specifically to target inflammation, the root cause of most chronic disease. His unique delivery system makes astaxanthin far more bioavailable than typical supplements, producing remarkable results for energy, mobility, sleep, and overall vitality in both people and pets.Today, Samuel is on a mission to educate others about how inflammation accelerates disease and diminishes quality of life, and how targeted natural solutions can restore health. Beyond his formidable credentials, his personal story of overcoming terminal illness fuels his passion for helping others age with strength, energy, and resilience.Of note, Mr. Shepherd's dedication to his work and commitment to excellence have not gone unnoticed.

Come Back to Love® Radio: The Art of Intimate Connection: Healing Through Pleasure and Presence In this intimate and empowering episode of Come Back to Love, Robyn Vogel sits down with clinical sexologist and certified sex coach Dr. Stacy Friedman to explore what it truly means to reconnect with sexual energy beyond performance and expectation. Together, they unpack how pleasure, presence, and emotional connection form the foundation of fulfilling intimacy. From navigating mismatched desires and life transitions like menopause to embracing self-love and playfulness, this conversation invites listeners to let go of shame, honor their bodies, and experience sexuality as a sacred, joyful exchange of energy. Topics Covered: The difference between sex coaching and therapy — and why normalization matters Navigating mismatched sex drives and rekindling desire in long-term relationships Hormones, menopause, and the importance of understanding your body Redefining “sex” as an energy exchange rather than just intercourse or orgasm How singles can nurture sensuality and self-love without a partner Bio:  Dr. Stacy Friedman is a Clinical Sexologist, Certified Sex Coach, and member of the World Association of Sex Coaching (WASC) and the American College of Sexologists (ACS). She holds a Doctorate in Human Sexuality, a Master's in Clinical Sexology, and a B.A. in Psychology, bringing both academic expertise and a strong medical foundation from over 21 years as a Registered Diagnostic Medical and Vascular Sonographer. Since 2006, Stacy has been dedicated to normalizing conversations around sexuality through coaching, workshops, and events that inspire confidence, playfulness, and curiosity. Her inclusive practice supports people across the gender and sexuality spectrum in exploring desires, overcoming challenges, and cultivating deeper levels of sexual health, expression, and connection.

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdknrnjVnr/For nearly the first time in the history of American public health, there is mass confusion and lack of credible information coming from our usual public health channels about which vaccines adults should receive. I want to arm all of you you with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly diseases. For Pregnant Women since you are immunizing for yourself and your new baby:TDap, in 3rd trimester; Influenza, anytime during flu season; CoVid, anytime; RSV, late 3rd trimester during RSV season.Adults, 18 through 64 year of age: Td/TDap, every 10 years; MMR, if not immune, 1-2 doses; Varicella, if not immune; HPV, through age 26 or 45 if never immunized; Influenza, annually late October; CoVid, 2-3 times a year with latest vaccines; Hepatitis A/B, as needed for travel or chronic illness; Meningitis, as needed for high risk, travel, outbreak, complement deficiency; Pneumococcal, if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient; RSV,  if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient.Seniors, 65 years and older: Influenza, yearly, high dose or adjuvated; CoVid: high potency mNEXSPIKE (Moderna) or equivalent Twice yearly, regular potency 2-3 times a year; RSV, single dose ? Every 2 years; Pneumococcal, PCV20 or PCV15+PCV23; Shingles, RZV or Shingrix, 2 dose series at 50 years or more, 19 years or more if immunocompromised; TDap, every 10 years.These are the vaccines that each of us should have. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your medical team. These days, so many of us are mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, digital or paper, should be the most complete. When you do get a vaccine, let's say at your local pharmacy, be certain to text or email your medical team so that the information can be added to your electronic medical record.I have posted the American Academy of Family Physicians summary chart of all adult immunizations on my website at drhowardsmith.com/adult-immunizations-2025-6.https://www.aafp.org/family-physician/patient-care/prevention-wellness/immunizations-vaccines/immunization-schedules/adult-immunization-schedule.htmlhttps://www.drhowardsmith.com/adult-immunizations-2025-6#adults #pregnancy #seniors #immunizations #vaccines

In this episode, Lillian Erdahl, MD, FACS, is joined by Eilidh Gunn, MBChB MRCSEd, from the Surgical Sabermetrics Laboratory at the University of Edinburgh. They discuss Dr Gunn's recent article, “What About the Coach? Mixed-Methods Study Assessing the Experience of Coaches in a Peer Surgical Coaching Program.” As peer-led surgical coaching becomes an increasingly popular professional development activity, this study explores the impact of participation on surgeons acting as coaches. Using a concurrent, mixed-methods design, results demonstrate that coaches found participation worthwhile and that it affected their own clinical practice.

In this episode, we explore practical tips for caring for older adults in the clinical setting through a case-based discussion highlighting common perioperative challenges and strategies for success. We also take a deeper dive into the American College of Surgeons Geriatric Surgery Verification Program, including its goals, impact, and how clinicians can get involved in advancing surgical care for the aging patient population. Take Home Points:  The older adult population is the fastest growing patient population and it is important we focus on patient-centered care for this population, as this is a population that almost all of us will engage with.  If you or your hospital isn't prepared to get verified yet, there are still small processes that can be implemented that can make an impactful difference on your patients. Geriatric Surgery Verification is at the cutting edge of quality improvement. Like other verification programs (trauma, bariatric) patients will soon seek out these centers that can best address their personal needs.

Madoff A revelatory book that lifts the curtain on America's most consequential public deception: how the rich get richer using tools the government gave them. Amid conflicting narratives about the drivers of wealth and inequality in the United States, one constant hovers in the background: the US tax code. No political force has been more consequential—or more utterly opaque—than the 7,000-page document that details who pays what in American society and government. Most of us have a sense that it's an unfair system. But does anyone know exactly how it's unfair? Legal scholar Ray D. Madoff knows. In The Second Estate, she offers an unprecedented look behind the scenes of America's byzantine system of taxation, laying bare not only its capacity to consolidate wealth but also the mechanisms by which it has created two fundamentally separate American societies: the working Americans who pay and the ultra-rich who benefit. This is not a story of offshore accounts or secret tax havens. In The Second Estate, Madoff shows that the US system itself has, over time, been stripped and reconstituted such that it now offers a series of secret paths, hidden in plain sight, for wealthy people in the know to avoid taxation altogether. Through the strategic avoidance of traditional income, leveraging of investments and debt, and exploitation of rules designed to promote charitable giving, America's wealthy do more than just pay less than their share; they remove themselves from the tax system entirely. Wealth becomes its own sovereign state, and the living is surprisingly—and maddeningly—cheap. Ray Madoff is a professor at Boston College Law School, where she teaches and writes in philanthropy policy, taxes, property, and estate planning. She is Co-founder and Director of the Boston College Law School Forum on Philanthropy and the Public Good, a non-partisan think tank that convenes scholars and practitioners to explore questions regarding whether the rules governing the charitable sector best serve the public good. Madoff is the author of Immortality and the Law: The Rising Power of the American Dead (Yale University Press), which looks at how American law treats the interests of the dead and what this tells us about our values for the living. The Financial Times called it "a sparkling polemic." She is also the lead author on one of the top treatises on estate planning entitled Practical Guide to Estate Planning (CCH). Madoff's expertise includes philanthropy policy, the rights of the dead (including the ability of the dead to control their bodies, reputation, and property), estate taxes, comparative inheritance law, and wealth inequality and taxes. A regular commentator on a number of these topics, Madoff has appeared on dozens of national radio shows including On Point, Talk of the Nation, All Things Considered, Here and Now, and Marketplace, among others. Madoff is a frequent contributor to the opinion pages of the New York Times and has published op-eds in the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, LA Times, Boston Globe and Chronicle of Philanthropy. Among her professional activities, Madoff is a member of the American Law Institute, an academic fellow of the American College of Trusts and Estate Counsel, and past president of the American Association of Law Schools' Trusts and Estates Section. She was named a 2014 Top Women of the Law by Mass Lawyer's Weekly and Critic of the Year by Inside Philanthropy. She was also named to the NonProfit Times Power & Influence Top 50 in 2017 and 2018 for her work promoting reform of the tax rules governing philanthropy.  An experienced mediator, Madoff is a leading authority on the use of mediation to resolve will and trust disputes. Prior to teaching, she was a practicing attorney for nine years in New York and Boston.

In this episode, we explore RheumCode, a groundbreaking new initiative from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) designed to build a common digital language for rheumatology. RheumCode aims to ensure that data means the same thing wherever it lives—whether in an EHR, a clinic, or a registry—enabling systems to seamlessly communicate and make better use of the medical information already being documented.

Dr. Edens debunks common misconceptions, such as vaccines causing autoimmune diseases or always triggering flares. She explains that while mild immune responses are normal, serious complications are extremely rare and the benefits far outweigh the risks. Dr Edens emphasizes that vaccines not only prevent infections but also certain cancers, making them an essential part of care for immunosuppressed patients. The discussion also explores vaccine timing with medications, the dangers of misinformation, and how to talk about vaccine hesitancy with empathy and evidence.Episode at a glance:Guest Expert: Dr. Cuoghi Edens, dual-trained adult and pediatric rheumatologist at the University of Chicago.Myth #1: “Natural is better than vaccines” — Debunked; vaccines dramatically reduce child and adult mortality from infectious diseases.Myth #2: “Vaccines cause autoimmune diseases” — Overwhelming evidence shows they do not.Myth #3: “Vaccines always cause flare-ups” — Possible but uncommon; most patients tolerate vaccines well, and disease prevention outweighs brief discomfort.Risk–Benefit Balance: Vaccines protect against infections and cancers (HPV, hepatitis B) that can worsen or complicate autoimmune diseases.Timing & Medications: ACR guidelines suggest coordination with treatments like rituximab and high-dose steroids, but partial protection is better than none.Health Literacy Tip: “Doing research” means reviewing credible scientific evidence—not social-media opinions or cherry-picked studies.Social Stigma: Addresses misinformation, polarization, and “anti-vax” rhetoric, highlighting the need for compassion and critical thinking.Trusted Resources: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia vaccine education site and American College of Rheumatology guidelines.Key Takeaway: Vaccines are safe, vital, and empowering tools for people with autoimmune diseases.Medical disclaimer: All content found on Arthritis Life public channels (including Rheumer Has It) was created for generalized informational purposes only.

This episode of Integrative Cancer Solution features an in-depth conversation with Dr. Christina M. Dieli-Conwright, Associate Professor at Dana Farber Harvard Medical School, who specializes in exercise oncology. Christina begins by sharing her unique career path, transitioning from veterinary medicine to clinical exercise physiology, and ultimately focusing her research on the intersection of exercise and cancer care. Her journey highlights the importance of pursuing one's passions and the impact of interdisciplinary expertise in advancing the field of exercise medicine for cancer patients. A significant portion of the episode centers on the physiological benefits of exercise for those living with cancer. Christina notes that exercise plays a crucial role in improving diverse body systems—from cognitive to immune function—and directly enhances quality of life, helps manage treatment side effects, and may even extend survival. She discusses her involvement in the Department of Nutrition, where she helps craft individualized exercise and nutrition strategies tailored to the unique needs of cancer survivors. The discussion highlights how both aerobic and resistance training are vital components of an optimized exercise program for cancer patients. Christina explains the current guidelines, advocating for at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic activity, complemented by strength training. She stresses, however, that these recommendations should be adapted to each patient's medical history, treatment stage, and overall health status, with frequent assessments to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments. Christina justifies these approaches with evidence from ongoing clinical trials and epidemiological studies, specifically citing strong data supporting exercise benefits for breast and colon cancer survivors. She also addresses the importance of combining exercise with other interventions, such as fasting, to maximize health outcomes and better manage symptoms like fatigue or hormonal imbalance. Despite the positive trends, Christina is candid about research gaps and the need for more precise, personalized guidelines, particularly for less-studied cancers or unique survivor populations. The episode concludes by empowering cancer survivors to seek out reliable resources for exercise guidance—such as the American Cancer Society and the American College of Sports Medicine—and to maintain motivation through personal support networks and physician recommendations. Christina leaves listeners with the message that consistent, individualized exercise is a transformative tool for surviving and thriving beyond cancer, reinforcing the broader theme that exercise is not only safe but essential for improving both the quality and longevity of life for those affected by cancer.Dr. Christina M. Dieli-Conwright explains how individualized exercise prescriptions can improve cognitive, immune, and overall health outcomes for cancer patients.The episode highlights the importance of both aerobic and resistance training, recommending at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous activity for survivors.Combining exercise with strategies like fasting can help manage fatigue and improve glycemic control during cancer therapy.Clinical evidence shows that exercise during and after cancer treatment is linked to better quality of life and potentially higher survival rates, especially for breast and colon cancers.Reliable resources like the American Cancer Society and American College of Sports Medicine provide support for cancer survivors seeking to tailor exercise to their unique needs.____________________________________If you're ready to expand your mind, elevate your health, and awaken your full potential, subscribe now and join the revolution in conscious living with The Dr. K Show!____________________________________CONNECT WITH DR.

Dr. Robert Hoffman is the Professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine and Nationwide Children's Hospital. He earned his M.D. from The Ohio State University, completed his pediatric residency at Akron Children's Hospital, and completed his fellowship at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. Dr. Hoffman is also a member of the Scientific Policy Committee of the American College of Pediatricians. He has recently revised an important report titled Marijuana Use: Detrimental to Youth. A recent press release spoke of an "American College of Surgeons report revealing that over 40% of deceased drivers in motor vehicle crashes over the past six years tested positive for THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana." This alarming statistic underscores a persistent and growing public health crisis. While this study does not specifically indicate the ages of the drivers, previous evidence shows that young adults are disproportionately prone to risky or impaired driving behaviors, particularly when under the influence of drugs or alcohol. While there are claims that marijuana is harmless, there are also many adverse effects that not only impact the user, but also children are being impacted as well.

Description: Listen as NPF Medical Board Members, dermatologist Dr. Robert Kalb and rheumatologist Dr. Sergio Schwartzman discuss the connections between psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, from cytokines to triggers, current and future treatments.   Join moderator Alan Simmons as he gains insights on what connects psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis with leading experts in psoriatic disease and NPF Medical Board members, dermatologist Dr. Robert Kalb with Buffalo Medical Group Dermatology, and rheumatologist Dr. Sergio Schwartzman from Schwartzman Rheumatology, as they discuss the known drivers of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, common triggers, benefits of targeted treatments, remission of disease, and upcoming treatment trends. The intent of this episode is to identify potential connections between psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, and how targeted treatments have changed the outlook for management of psoriatic disease. This episode is sponsored by Novartis. Timestamps: (0:41) Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered and guest welcome dermatologist Dr. Robert Kalb and rheumatologist Dr. Sergio Schwartzman who are both involved in clinical care and research of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.  (1:15) Current known pro-inflammatory cytokines and cells found in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.   (5:33) Types of psoriasis that may lead to a higher risk of developing psoriatic arthritis. (9:33) Common triggers for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis that could cause flares of the disease. (12:59) Key factors that are considered when choosing a treatment plan for any individual with psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. (18:04) What treatment remission means for psoriasis. (19:36) Use of minimal disease activity (MDA) in psoriatic arthritis and what it means. (22:14) How a better understanding of the disease has led to more effective treatment choices and what choices are used by Dr. Kalb and Dr. Schwartzman for the management of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (28:39) New developments in treatment and research in psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. (36:01) Given treatment advancements it's a wonderful time to treat psoriatic disease. 3 Key Takeaways: ·       Cytokines are chemicals in the body that moderate various processes. In psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis,  an unknown trigger stimulates some cells to overproduce pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL-17 or IL-23 leading to the development of skin and joint disease.  ·       Treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis helps move the body towards normalizing the over reactive immune system especially with more targeted treatments that safely and effectively block specific cytokines without affecting other organ systems.  ·       Given advancements in targeted treatments the goal is to reach and maintain remission of psoriatic disease. Guest Bios:   Leading dermatologist Robert Kalb, M.D. is the Chair of the Buffalo Medical Group Dermatology Department and the Director of the Buffalo Medical Group Phototherapy Center, one of the leading centers for psoriasis care in Western New York.

Why safe and effective drugs are NOT approved by the FDA Why doctors are forced to use medications off label How you can help During my 44 years of medical practice, I have encountered conditions for which there is no approved medication or surgical treatment available as recognized by the American College of OBGYN or the FDA. This situation can present challenges both for physicians managing these patients and for individuals seeking relief from their symptoms. This issue is not often addressed on Dr Oz, in the news, or at medical conferences. For many conditions, physicians wait for the development of approved medications or treatments, and in the meantime may inform patients that there is currently no treatment or cure available. Some doctors may attribute a patient's concerns to aging, stating that it is a universal experience. While this may be accurate, such explanations may not provide comfort to patients seeking solutions to their symptoms. This lack of helpful guidance can discourage individuals from seeking medical care when they feel their concerns are not acknowledged. This seems to result from insurance companies prioritizing cost savings by minimizing patient care.  Every year insurance companies decrease what they pay doctors for their services, while their expenses go up, and the Government requires more and more work behind the scenes like HIPPA, OSHA, and Clia requirements that costs more to deliver the same service.  If you have a problem with the time your doctor spends with you then blame the insurance companies whose profits rise every year…Soon doctors will do what I do and only take cash.  The practice of medicine is not working in a free market. While insurance limits the prescriptions of medication to those meds that are FDA Approved, the FDA and medical specialty colleges often delay approval of new, low-risk treatments for up to 20 years after their effectiveness is demonstrated. This lengthy process should be reconsidered to treat people who are ill and suffering, now. There is plenty of research in the medical journals that explain the safety of new and effective treatments that can save peoples' lives that are not FDA approved yet. The FDA is not interested in expediting the release of medication/ devices quickly to those people who need help now. They drag out the testing of a medicine that has been effective for years and may or may not approve it. On the flip side they have approved many drugs that later are found to have severe side effects, and they just change the warnings on the medication inserts. They don't take them off the market except in severe cases. Drugs that have worked treating patients successfully are being used but are not FDA approved. These “grandfathered drugs” don't need to go through the testing that new drugs go through because they work with few well-known risks. I use many if these medications because they are inexpensive for my patients and are often more effective than new meds for the same problem. One of the drugs that the FDA has not had to approve is Armour Thyroid, a natural thyroid replacement. My experience with treatments not approved by the FDA Armour Thyroid: Armour Thyroid (AT) has been prescribed by doctors to replace thyroid hormones for about 100 years. It is natural, made from Pig thyroid. It only comes from “medical Pigs” that are raised for medical purposes.  We use medical pigs for skin grafts, and other parts of the pig to treat human diseases like heart valve replacements.  Armour Thyroid is composed of the four thyroid hormones that humans make: T4, T3, T2, T1. The synthetic thyroid replacement, Synthroid/levothyroxine is only T4.  The active form of thyroid is T3, and it requires an enzyme to convert T4 into T3. If a person can't convert T4 into active T3 then nothing improves except the blood levels of T4, and TSH. The majority of women cannot convert T4 into T3. Therefore, if they take Synthroid or levothyroxine and their doctor only checks their TSH level and not the level of free T3 and free T4 to see if the Thyroid is working, then women are told that they are healed, yet they know they are not because none of their low thyroid symptoms are resolved. When this happens, doctors tell female patients that it is all in their heads and dismiss us when we tell them we are not cured with this synthetic T4 medication. Yet Synthroid is a chemical, and AT is natural from medical pigs, so the FDA is trying to Bann the only drug that has successfully treated millions of women. PS. Synthroid was not tested on women like many other drugs that were passed through the FDA before 2014! If you think this is a small problem, think again. Thyroid hormones are vital to human life, and the thyroid gland requires Iodine in the diet. The Midwest US has no Iodine in the soil or water. Therefore, this area is overburdened with hypothyroidism. I have been on AT for 50 years without complication and I have prescribed it thousands of times ever since I went into private practice.  AT works to relieve the symptoms of hypothyroidism for women and men, and it works better for women that the “new” drug Synthroid/levothyroxine, which is FDA approved. You ask how could the FDA approve a drug that doesn't successfully treat women? It is because Synthroid was not tested on women!  Until 2014 the FDA did not test women in the required drug trials.  AT works for us (women), Levothyroxine does not. Now the FDA wants to ban AT. It is not approved because it was around for decades before they started testing medications like they do now, and the history of successful treatment should stand on its own merit! Example 2: Bio-Identical Hormones BIH:  BIHs had not been approved by the FDA until recently and there was no announcement that they are now approved for women who have hormone deficiency symptoms or postmenopausal symptoms. Most doctors and women who have been afraid of the only hormones that can help them, bioidentical hormones, haven't yet been told that NOW, FINALLY the medical colleges and the FDA finally have quietly approved BI hormones.  There are no pure estradiol and pure testosterone pellets that are made by a drug company for women. My patients get their estradiol and testosterone pellets from a compounding pharmacy.  I have been prescribing BIH since 1985 without FDA approval because the oral estrogen formulations that were available at pharmacies caused weight gain and put women at high risk for blood clots. Non-oral BI hormones have fewer risks than FDA approved estrogens.  I waited more than 45 years for the FDA to approve BI hormones for treatment of women.  All those women in the last 45 years who were taking FDA approved estradiol and those who couldn't tolerate them have been harmed by FDA goals of never approving compounded or bio-identical hormones.  The delay has harmed 50% of American women. Example #3 Devices for Weight Loss I was involved in the discovery and testing of a unique device that stimulated acupuncture points with a TENS-unit-type patch connected to your cell phone for easy adjustment of your hunger or “fullness”. The FDA requires testing to approve any new device so the group of investors I was part of had to invest thousands of dollars for a device we already knew worked. The FDA told the investigators of all new devices who they should test, who they can't have in the study, and how long the testing should take. I found their parameters for the study of this device to be unrealistic. The women in our test group could not be taking hormones of any kind (birth control, ERT, HRT), and could not be on antidepressants, could not have diabetes or insulin resistance or be on any drug that assisted in weight loss. These women subjects had to be a certain BMI (level of obesity) and had to be tested repeatedly with weight and body composition measurements None of my patients who needed weight loss could participate.  Most GYN patients are on some medication or supplement, so the FDA made this study of our device so narrow that REAL WOMEN weren't tested! Sadly, we lost many women in the control group from the study because they were NOT losing weight while the ones on the device were obviously dropping pounds, so we had trouble maintaining test subjects. The testing phase of this simple device took 7 years! Our device works and no one will ever know about it or be able to use this non-medicinal weight loss device because when the FDA rejects your device you will be breaking the law if you produce and sell it directly to the public. It has no side effects or dangers..it just controls the amount you eat with stimulation of an acupuncture point. There are many ways to change this situation, and it takes years and billions of dollars to change the whole system of bringing treatments to patients quickly.  I'm afraid I won't see a revolution of the way we bring medicines and devices to market during my lifetime. Currently there is a 17-year delay between proving a drug or device works for a particular illness or condition and when it becomes available to doctors and patients. So what do we do in the meantime?  I seek treatments for patients who are unresponsive to traditional medicine by reading journals like Life Extension, that inform doctors and patients alike about new effective solutions for common medical complaints and diseases that the FDA has ignored or stymied with endless drug trials.  Life Extension Magazine highlights studies on new medications for diseases without an FDA approved solution and publicizes diagnostic tests often overlooked by mainstream publications because they are not yet FDA approved. The medical journals I read (New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, Menopause, Metabolism and Endocrinology, Journal of Age management, to name a few) offer treatments for orphan diseases or even common problems that haven't been blessed by the FDA. It takes an average of 17 years from the culmination of research on a new drug, test or device until it is approved for use by the public! At the end of this Blog, I will give you a link to make your voice heard by signing a petition to shorten the approval of new treatments and medications from the average of 17 years to 3 years! My patients don't have time to wait for relief, and that may be the case for you as well. If you want to do something to help, please click this link and let the FDA know how you feel.

The air inside and outside your home often contains invisible pollutants, including fine particles and gases from traffic, industry, and household items, which accumulate in the spaces where you spend the most time Fine particulate matter (PM2.5), in particular, which is about 30 times smaller than a human hair, penetrates deeply into your lungs and bloodstream, where it contributes to cardiovascular strain and disease A large, randomized crossover trial published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that using HEPA air filters indoors significantly lowered PM2.5 exposure and reduced systolic blood pressure Research links long-term air pollution to many serious health risks beyond heart disease, including respiratory illnesses, lung cancer, impaired childhood development, heightened infection rates, and neurological conditions Aside from installing HEPA filtration systems at home, other strategies to reduce your exposure to air pollutants include switching to nontoxic household products, ventilating wisely, filtering water, and reducing outdoor exposure on polluted days

Sometimes you hear something that makes you just stop and say, “What did you say?!”. Yep, in this episode we will give evidence-based answers to three questions that I heard TODAY that made me stop and ask, “What did you say?”. In this episode we will cover: 1. Umbilical cord blood collection from a monochorionic twin gestation, 2. Predictability of the mBPP compared to full BPP, and 3. Breastfeeding during postpartum cannabis use (this last one is not so intuitive as you would think, and there is new ACOG guidance on this which we will review). Listen in for details!1.
