In this episode of GynoCurious, host Dr. Amy Novatt explores the topic of contaminants and their impact on reproductive and developmental health through the observations of her guest, a doula and childbirth educator. She opens the episode discussing various contaminants such as air pollutants, chemicals in food and personal care products, and household toxins, highlighting the pressing need for more research in this area. Dr. Novatt also emphasizes the critical role of the placenta in filtering these contaminants during pregnancy, though it is not impermeable. Her guest today, Janet Villani-Smith, shares her unique career journey and valuable insights. Her narrative, filled with anecdotes, sheds light on the personal motivations that guided her to support women through childbirth. The episode delves into the role of doulas, the emotional and physical support they provide, and the importance of personalized care during the birthing process. Janet shares intimate stories of her professional experiences, including the impactful moments and challenges she faces as a doula, offering listeners a profound understanding of the profession's significance. The discussion later pivots to the potential risks associated with common prenatal practices and products, such as prenatal vitamins and environmental exposures. Janet brings attention to findings related to contaminants in prenatal vitamins and the importance of being informed about the substances they contain. Dr. Novatt and Janet also talk about various lifestyle considerations for expectant mothers, from dietary choices to environmental exposures in different work environments. Dr. Novatt reminds her listeners that this episode is for entertainment purposes and that the American College of Ob-Gyn strongly encourages the use of prenatal vitamins for all pregnancies.

Even if you don't have hot flashes, stay with me on this because this episode is on exercise and hot flashes. We're going to dissect the science and eradicate “science says” as a cry for validity by influencers. Hot flashes are one of the most common symptoms of menopause. I'll talk about the relationship between exercise and hot flashes along with other menopause symptoms like muscle loss or fat increase. In previous podcast episodes and books, I've shared researcher comments about whether exercise could mitigate menopause symptoms. The answer, “Yes, provided it's intense enough.” The Science A 2024 study on 72 pre, peri and postmenopausal women, published in the Menopause Journal of The Menopause Society, looked at the impact of minutes spent in 3 exercise intensities and body composition on total menopause symptoms (TMS). More symptoms were associated with higher body fat. Intense physical exercise improves % body composition and may reduce TMS, beneficial for perimenopausal women. An article published by the American College of Sports Medicine, looked at protein turnover changes, muscle size, quality and strength during menopause. All seemed to decline. What we don't know [Dr Stuart Phillips' response to Mary Claire Haver's Instagram post regarding estrogen's impact on muscle] is the cause for these changes. Is there evidence for causation between decline of estrogen and decrease in muscle mass, which some women experience: Insomnia Poor mood, depression or anxiety Lack of motivation (serotonin receptors) A time crunch in midlife Comfort or emotional eating Repeatedly, women will say, “I haven't changed a thing, but my results have changed.” That would be true if you didn't change what it was you were doing. If your hormones have changed, we have to change the exercise. Another 2024 study in Menopause Journal showed both moderate intensity and resistance training exercise will decrease hot flash occurrence in some women, especially in women with depression. High Intensity - more impact on body composition and positive impact on hot flashes Moderate Intensity - decreased hot flash occurrence Exercise and Hot Flashes, Estrogen and Muscle Whether we're talking about exercise and hot flashes or estrogen and muscle loss, so many variables could be at play, even if the science is a randomized double-blind study with a large enough subject pool. If hormones have changed, we have to change the exercise (including nutrition and sleep habits) or it's not going to work. If medications become important, then we have to look at micronutrients because they're depleted by each prescription or OTC med. If you don't absorb micronutrients you don't have optimal muscle or strength building blocks. Social Media The type of studies that influencers share matters. Whether they've shared a review of literature, a double-blind randomized control study, or a narrative or know what that means What is the interpretation that helps you make decisions on changes you may want to consider or that reinforces what you are doing? The only real thing an influencer is sharing unless they share the science with you is, “what works for me” and you're left to guess… is that really what happens behind the scenes? But before I share that, I think we know this: Both are on a worthy mission… To improve the knowledge we have about muscle, bone and aging and the impact on them of daily and weekly habits To acknowledge menopause has historically impacted women's health. What can you do with the information? Make the best choices on exercise prescription, dietary choices, lifestyle habits to offset what is impacted by hormonal changes Make the best choices with their time and energy for women with hormonal changes to get the optimal health habits. Provide clarity about the exercise prescription that is most advantageous and then customize it for women based on their fitness status, health history, and stage of menopause Train an army of Menopause Fitness Specialist® in every fitness club, health center, university and behind every online program.

Dr. Michael Artigues is president of the American College of Pediatricians. Dr. Artigues received his undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering from Tulane University in 1988 and medical degree from the University of Mississippi Medical School in 1992 where he also completed his pediatric residency in 1995. He practices general pediatrics in McComb, Mississippi. He has served as a board member and president of the local crisis pregnancy and child advocacy centers and has been a member of the American College of Pediatricians Board since 2014.Children across America have been identifying as transgender in what some have called, "epidemic proportions." In fact, it's almost become a status symbol to be viewed as transgender. Earlier this month, the Department of Health and Human Services released a ground-breaking report which confirms the lack of evidence supporting both the safety and efficacy of transgender interventions both in children and adolescents. This goes against the mantra that's been coming out from many public school systems, as well as the practices of Planned Parenthood and what we've been seeing from Hollywood. This is a many faceted issue that involves aspects such as gender dysphoria, gender affirming care, preferred pronouns, puberty blockers, emotional instability, the suicide factor and more. Review this broadcast and you'll hear these things discussed while listeners called with their opinions both pro and con.

In this episode, military spouse and financial expert, Desiree Kaul, breaks everything down. You'll learn what makes HSAs unique, how they can fit into your savings plan, and what military families should know when transitioning out of service or choosing civilian health plans. Desiree is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER, Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC®), Chartered Special Needs Consultant (ChSNC®), Military Qualified Financial Planner (MQFP®), and an Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC®).

En à peine 70 ans, la teneur en vitamines, minéraux et antioxydants de nos fruits et légumes a nettement diminué. Une tendance confirmée par de nombreuses études, dont l'une des plus citées est celle du Dr Donald Davis, biochimiste à l'Université du Texas, publiée en 2004 dans le Journal of the American College of Nutrition. En comparant les données nutritionnelles de 43 légumes et fruits entre 1950 et 1999, l'étude a révélé des baisses significatives : -6 % en protéines, -16 % en calcium, -9 % en phosphore, -15 % en fer et jusqu'à -38 % en vitamine B2.Mais à quoi est due cette perte de qualité nutritionnelle ?1. L'agriculture intensive et la sélection variétaleDepuis les années 1950, les variétés agricoles ont été sélectionnées avant tout pour leur rendement, leur croissance rapide, leur résistance au transport et leur aspect esthétique, souvent au détriment de leur densité nutritionnelle. Ce phénomène, appelé effet de dilution, signifie que plus une plante pousse vite et produit de masse, moins elle concentre de nutriments dans ses tissus. Autrement dit : des tomates plus grosses, mais moins riches.2. L'appauvrissement des solsL'usage massif d'engrais chimiques a favorisé une production rapide, mais a aussi déséquilibré les sols, souvent privés de microéléments essentiels. Or, un sol pauvre produit des végétaux pauvres. Les rotations de cultures limitées, le labour excessif et la monoculture réduisent encore davantage la richesse biologique du sol, privant les plantes de nutriments qu'elles devraient absorber naturellement.3. La récolte précoce et la conservationDe nombreux fruits et légumes sont récoltés avant maturité, pour supporter les longs trajets ou la conservation. Or, c'est en fin de maturation que la concentration en antioxydants et en vitamines atteint son maximum. De plus, les méthodes de conservation (réfrigération, atmosphère modifiée) peuvent entraîner une dégradation progressive des nutriments.4. Le changement climatiqueDes travaux récents publiés dans Nature Climate Change montrent que l'augmentation du CO₂ atmosphérique stimule la croissance végétale, mais dilue certains nutriments, notamment le zinc, le fer et les protéines dans les céréales et les légumineuses. Une tendance préoccupante à l'échelle mondiale.Conclusion :Nos fruits et légumes sont moins nutritifs non parce qu'ils sont "pires", mais parce que les méthodes de culture modernes privilégient la quantité à la qualité. Ce constat relance l'intérêt pour des pratiques agricoles plus durables, des variétés anciennes, et la consommation locale et de saison. Hébergé par Acast.

Episode 2956: Dr. Neal Malik breaks down the science behind post-workout nutrition, offering practical advice on protein, carbs, and timing to help optimize recovery and muscle growth. He also explores the truth about popular supplements like creatine, beta-alanine, glutamine, and whey, and reveals when natural food might be all you need. Quotes to ponder: "After your workout, especially after strength training, researchers are discovering that consuming 20 grams of leucine rich protein is often recommended." "The goal is to consume these foods within 20 to 30 minutes of finishing your workout." "Although most supplements may be considered safe when taken at the recommended doses, athletes should be aware of the potential risks, contamination with stimulants, estrogenic compounds, diuretics or anabolic agents may occur."
