But that is just the tip of the iceberg in a week packed with massive industry updates. Join host Annie Kane, commercial content writer Ben Squires, and senior journalist Charlie Tchetchenian break down what AUSTRAC has discovered in its latest mortgage fraud probe, which has uncovered potentially hundreds of millions in suspected fraud, and the vulnerabilities being exposed across the lending sector. This week, they discuss: What AUSTRAC uncovered in Operation Claw. The widespread pullback in nationwide mortgage demand. The government's long-awaited CSLR overhaul. And much more!

Medical Board : « Le modèle est devenu obsolète », les associations réclament une réforme pour mieux évaluer le handicap by TOPFM MAURITIUS
Sign up for my free newsletter/1 page action plansIn this episode of Live Long and Well, Dr. Bobby looks at the evidence behind breakfast—not as a slogan, but as a real-life question: what problem is breakfast solving?For some people, breakfast may help with blood sugar, protein intake, morning exercise, or avoiding late-day overeating. For others, skipping breakfast may work perfectly well. And for many adults, “breakfast” may really mean coffee—which can improve alertness and exercise performance, but is not the same as food, protein, fiber, or fuel.Dr. Bobby also explores where the breakfast slogan came from, including its ties to cereal companies, health reformers, and early public relations campaigns. The episode then compares breakfast, lunch, and dinner through three practical questions:Does this meal help my body and health?Weight, blood sugar, disease risk, protein, and muscle.Does this meal help me perform today?Exercise, energy, focus, cognition, and school performance.Does this meal help me live well?Family rhythm, connection, and the social meaning of meals.The conclusion: there is probably no single “most important meal” for everyone. The best meal is the one that helps you live the day you are actually trying to live.In this episodeWhy “breakfast is the most important meal” may be more marketing than medical factWhat observational studies suggest about breakfast skipping and heart disease riskWhy healthy-user bias makes breakfast research trickyWhat randomized trials show about breakfast, skipping breakfast, weight loss, and metabolismHow chrononutrition raises a better question: are we eating too much too late?Why coffee may help you skip breakfast—but does not replace breakfast nutritionallyWhen eating before morning exercise mattersWhat we know about breakfast, cognition, and school performance in childrenWhy “hangry” may be realHow breakfast, lunch, and dinner each serve different rolesHow to decide whether breakfast matters for youKey takeawaysBreakfast does not magically turn on your metabolism.Randomized trials do not show that simply adding breakfast leads to meaningful weight loss.Skipping breakfast is not automatically harmful.It may work well for some people, especially if it reduces total calories without causing overeating later.The observational data are complicated.Breakfast skippers often look less healthy in long-term studies, but they may also smoke more, sleep less, exercise less, work irregular schedules, or eat more late at night.Chrononutrition gives breakfast its strongest argument.The body may handle calories better earlier in the day than late at night. The issue may be less “everyone must eat breakfast” and more “be careful about pushing most calories to the evening.”Coffee is not breakfast.Coffee may improve alertness and exercise performance, and it may reduce appetite for a while. But it is not protein, fiber, or fuel.Kids are different.For a hungry child, breakfast may matter for learning readiness, behavior, and attention.Exercise changes the answer.For a short, easy workout, coffee and water may be enough. For a long run, long ride, intervals, or race-like effort, food or carbohydrate may help.Dinner may win the connection argument.Shared meals are strongly linked with well-being. Dinner may not be best for blood sugar, but it may be powerful for family, friendship, and decompression.Lunch deserves more respect.Lunch may be the underrated meal that prevents the 3 p.m. slump and the 9 p.m. snack attack.A practical experimentRather than adopting a slogan, try a personal experiment.For two weeks, eat a real breakfast with protein, fiber, and minimal added sugar. Track your hunger, mood, exercise quality, afternoon energy, evening snacking, and sleep.Then, if it is safe for you, try two weeks of delaying or skipping breakfast while keeping your coffee/caffeine routine consistent.Ask yourself:Do I feel better or worse?Do I eat less overall—or make it up later?Are my workouts better or worse?Am I sharper or more irritable?Does skipping breakfast lead to a chaotic dinner?Am I still getting enough protein?The question is not whether breakfast works in theory. The question is whether breakfast works for you.Who should be more cautious about skipping breakfast?Be more careful with breakfast skipping if you are a child or adolescent, pregnant, diabetic, prone to low blood sugar, have a history of eating disorders, do long or intense morning workouts, or struggle to get enough protein—especially as an older adult.Dr. Bobby's bottom lineFor me, breakfast is not the most important meal most days.If I have a long workout ahead, I eat breakfast. Coffee alone is not enough.If I am just writing, reading, or working in the morning, coffee may be enough until I am actually hungry.And if I am eating with family or friends, breakfast matters for a different reason. Sometimes the table matters more than the eggs.Maybe breakfast is not the most important meal of the day.Maybe it is the most marketed.The most important meal is the one that helps you live the day you are actually trying to live.
Diaz Aguilar grew up in Compton California raised by a single mother who struggled with addiction — and when the streets filled the gap the Vice Lords became his family. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares how a trip to Chicago pulled him into the Vice Lords, how a trip to Mississippi ended with a manslaughter charge for something he says he did not do, and what losing at trial and being sentenced to 20 years in Mississippi's most brutal maximum security prison actually felt like for a Vice Lord from Compton who knew he was innocent. He opens up about the prison politics inside Mississippi's worst facility, what life as a Vice Lord inside those walls actually required of him, and what 22 years of wrongful incarceration really does to a person before they find a way to keep going. _____________________________________________ #wrongfulconviction #TrueCrime #prison _____________________________________________ Connect with Diaz Aguilar: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/diaz_santiago_55?igsh=MTZvMWkxM2U4MDB6dA== _____________________________________________ Buy his book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GZYDGM5J?ref=cm_sw_r_ffobk_apan_dp_Y0MGDT0AZRAAQKJ14QC9&ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_apan_dp_Y0MGDT0AZRAAQKJ14QC9&social_share=cm_sw_r_ffobk_apan_dp_Y0MGDT0AZRAAQKJ14QC9&bestFormat=true&fbclid=PAcGRvZgJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xMjQwMjQ1NzQyODc0MTQAAaccY68BMUhqLOhGfqVyG5b0jFGHckUvPBwgIetA_Sm_iCFscImzCEQEJWavmA_aem_mhRhsWedJChoBH70P-GvTA&utm_content=link_in_bio&utm_medium=social&utm_source=ig ____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro: Diaz Aguilar's Story 00:18 Growing Up in Compton 01:41 Mother's Addiction & Early Hardships 03:59 Friendships & Finding Family 05:04 Reflections on Mother-Son Relationship 07:36 Childhood Trouble & Gang Influence 09:01 Neighborhood Gangs and Associations 10:03 Joining the Vice Lords 13:13 Gang Symbolism & Identity 14:55 Dreams, Aspirations, and Early Outlook 16:18 School Life and Influential Teacher 17:52 Writing Inspiration & Starting a Book 21:02 Adoption, Family Changes & Moving to Mississippi 25:31 Troubled Adoption and Feeling Isolated 28:44 Mississippi: New Beginnings and Trouble 31:31 The Incident: Manslaughter Charge 38:12 Court, Trial, and Sentencing 43:03 Life in Mississippi State Penitentiary 50:12 Gang Dynamics and Prison Politics 01:00:19 Economics of Prison: Protection and Extortion 01:08:45 Adapting and Surviving in Prison 01:13:15 Solitary Confinement and Mental Health 01:17:51 Struggles for Justice & Maintaining Innocence 01:23:00 Life After Release: Reentry Challenges 01:24:47 Relationships, Intimacy & PTSD 01:26:34 Making Peace and Coping with Trauma 01:33:32 Thoughts on Gang Life Now 01:34:12 Wisdom Gained: Reflections on Life 01:35:50 Life Today: Work, Books & New Beginnings 01:38:40 Closing Thoughts & Farewell _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka

Une voix assurée sur les réseaux sociaux peut faire paraître presque n'importe quelle affirmation crédible, surtout lorsqu'elle nous dit exactement ce que nous avons envie d'entendre. Dans cet épisode, nous discutons de ce qui se passe après qu'une publication devient virale et que notre boîte de réception se remplit de questions comme : « Devrais je prendre de la vitamine D3? », « Ai je vraiment besoin d'une statine? » ou encore « Mon médecin dit que le cholestérol n'a pas d'importance, alors pourquoi m'en préoccuper? ». Nous ne pouvons pas donner de conseils médicaux personnalisés sans connaître votre situation, mais nous pouvons vous proposer une meilleure façon d'évaluer l'information et de distinguer les données scientifiques des certitudes virales.Nous abordons ensuite deux sujets qui suscitent beaucoup de débats : le cholestérol et la viande rouge. Lorsqu'une personne affirme que le cholestérol sanguin n'a aucune importance ou que les statines sont systématiquement dangereuses, nous expliquons pourquoi ce sont des signaux d'alarme lorsqu'on ne connaît ni les facteurs de risque cardiovasculaire, ni les analyses, ni les antécédents médicaux de la personne. Lorsqu'une autre affirme que la viande rouge n'est pas associée au cancer, nous comparons ce type de message à la façon dont des organismes comme l'Association américaine du cœur, le Collège américain de cardiologie et les grandes sociétés de lutte contre le cancer élaborent leurs recommandations, à partir de vastes revues de la littérature scientifique et d'un consensus d'experts.Nous expliquons également ce que signifie réellement l'évaluation par les pairs, pourquoi les lignes directrices médicales sont élaborées par des groupes d'experts plutôt que par une seule personnalité, et pourquoi la plupart des recommandations nutritionnelles nationales favorisent une alimentation composée principalement d'aliments peu transformés d'origine végétale, comme les approches DASH ou le régime Portfolio. Enfin, nous abordons un concept qui aide à démêler bien des idées reçues : la relation dose effet. Qu'il s'agisse du soya et de l'inflammation, des œufs et du cholestérol alimentaire ou de nombreux autres sujets, c'est souvent la quantité consommée et les habitudes à long terme qui comptent davantage qu'un seul aliment.Si vous souhaitez moins de prises de position sensationnalistes et davantage d'outils fiables pour évaluer les informations en santé, écoutez cet épisode.

What if the biggest threats to your health aren't diseases in the traditional sense—but invisible patterns of disconnection that quietly shape every aspect of your life? In this thought-provoking solo episode, Darin explores what he calls the Five Silent Diseases: numbness, disconnection, distraction, comparison, and forgetting who you truly are. Drawing on research surrounding loneliness, chronic disease, ultra-processed foods, nutrient depletion, social media, and nervous system health, he reveals how modern systems have become remarkably efficient at keeping us busy, distracted, and disconnected from ourselves. More importantly, Darin offers a roadmap back—through real food, meaningful relationships, intentional stillness, honest self-reflection, and daily practices that reconnect us to purpose. This isn't about adding more information to your life. It's about remembering what you've always known and finally acting on it. You weren't born to simply manage your life—you were born to truly live it. What You'll Learn Why loneliness has become one of today's greatest public health challenges The connection between ultra-processed food and chronic disease How nutrient-depleted soils affect the quality of our food Why social media is reshaping our nervous systems The Five Silent Diseases that keep us disconnected from ourselves How boredom can unlock creativity and emotional clarity Why real human connection is more important than digital connection The difference between information and true self-awareness Practical breathing and mindfulness techniques to reconnect with yourself Why asking better questions changes your life How one real meal and one real conversation can transform your week Why your purpose begins with slowing down enough to hear yourself again Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Fatty15 00:04:13 – A startling truth about loneliness 00:05:18 – Why we're more connected—and more isolated—than ever 00:05:49 – We're managing life instead of living it 00:06:25 – Ultra-processed food and the chronic disease epidemic 00:07:20 – Nutrient-depleted soil and declining food quality 00:08:04 – Social media, anxiety, and the next generation 00:08:50 – The systems keeping us disconnected 00:09:34 – Introducing the Five Silent Diseases 00:09:56 – Silent Disease #1: Numbness 00:10:25 – Silent Disease #2: Disconnection 00:10:56 – Silent Disease #3: Distraction 00:11:27 – Silent Disease #4: Comparison 00:11:58 – Silent Disease #5: Forgetting who you are 00:12:33 – Responsibility creates power 00:12:53 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:14:44 – A guided breathing and mindfulness practice 00:15:25 – The one truth you've been avoiding 00:15:46 – "What do you know that you're pretending not to know?" 00:16:09 – Quieting the noise to hear yourself 00:16:49 – Four practical actions to transform your life 00:16:57 – Eat one real, whole-food meal today 00:17:16 – Have one meaningful conversation this week 00:17:39 – Disconnect from your phone and embrace boredom 00:18:03 – Write down the truth you've been avoiding 00:18:23 – Take one step toward the life you actually want 00:18:56 – Why your dreams deserve your attention 00:19:29 – Presence over productivity 00:19:38 – Busy isn't the same as living 00:20:01 – One real meal.

Modern life constantly pulls your attention outward, leaving little room to notice what your body, your heart, and your intuition have been trying to tell you all along. Healing begins when you slow down enough to listen. One real meal. One meaningful conversation. One moment of stillness. One honest decision. Those small acts don't just change your day—they change the trajectory of your life." Bibliography/Sources: Loneliness and Health Risk Associated Press. (2025, January).

What if your conference wasn't designed around sessions, speakers, and logistics, but around how you wanted attendees to feel? How can your association bring more artistry, intention, and humanity into everything it does?In part two of this two-part special on Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Nir Hindi, Founder of The Artian. Nir discusses:What business artistry is, and why leaders should think of business as a platform for creative expression and human value, not simply optimization.Why association conferences should begin by asking, "What should this feel like?" rather than focusing first on speakers, logistics, or attendance goals.How associations can intentionally design conferences for the individual attendee, especially first-time attendees who arrive alone and often feel intimidated.Why post-pandemic conferences must prioritize human connection and community, since educational content is increasingly available online.How artists teach leaders to pay attention to invisible details that create meaningful experiences, even when attendees can't articulate why something feels exceptional.The Pixar meeting room story, and how changing physical environments can dramatically improve participation, collaboration, and idea generation.How storytelling should focus on members' problems, journeys, and transformations rather than organizational history, milestones, or statistics.Why associations should measure success not simply by attendance or satisfaction scores, but by whether their events genuinely transformed members' professional lives.References:TheArtian websiteNir's Business Artistry CourseFollow Nir on LinkedInNir's Website

Testosterone for women: what the evidence actually shows vs. what social media is selling you. Testosterone has become the hormone every midlife woman is told she is missing: the third hormone lost at menopause, the fix for brain fog, low energy, stubborn weight, and thinning muscle. The science tells a different and more reassuring story. In this episode, Dr. Ayesha Sherzai sits down with Professor Susan Davis, MBBS, FRACP, PhD, the clinician-researcher and academic endocrinologist who gathered much of the data and helped write the global guidelines, to separate what the research supports from what is simply being sold.

Gonadal hormones have a complicated influence on appetite. Estradiol generally suppresses appetite, whereas progesterone opposes estradiol's action such that their combined presence represents a high-risk hormonal milieu for Binge Eating (BE). Testosterone is thought to be associated with increased BE in females but appears protective in males. In some reports, combination oral contraceptive (COC) use has been linked to greater BE-related appetitive processes (e.g., food intake). Now, we have 2 recent, back-to-back publications (June 2026 in JAMA Network Open, and July 2026 in Appetite) that have examined the relationship of hormonal contraception on binge eating behavior. These found seemingly opposing conclusions. Listen in for details. 1. Klump KL, Di Dio AM, Anaya C, et al. Combined Oral Contraceptive Use and Binge Eating.

Can food improve brain health, memory and mood? In this episode, Prof Felice Jacka and Prof Tim Spector explore how diet, the gut microbiome and fermented foods may affect your mood, brain function and dementia risk. Drawing on clinical trials and research involving more than 10 million people, they explain why what you eat could have a much bigger impact on your brain than most people realise, and what the latest science suggests you can do about it. Felice, who helped create the field of nutritional psychiatry, explains how food influences the brain through the gut microbiome and inflammation. She and Tim explore why some foods change brain function, which support brain health, what the evidence says about ultra-processed foods, and why diet is becoming an increasingly important part of research on brain and mental health. Learn which foods to eat more often, which foods to reduce, and simple, affordable ways to build meals that support your gut, mood and long-term brain health. From whole grains and legumes to fermented foods and everyday supermarket and grocery store choices, by the end of the episode, you'll have realistic advice that's easy to put into practice today. If the food you eat today helps shape your brain tomorrow, what small change could make the biggest difference over the next year?

« Ce n'est pas parce qu'il y a violence, qu'il y a relation de domination ; mais c'est bien parce qu'il y a une relation de domination envers les enfants, que la violence peut survenir. »Évidemment très touchée par le terrible drame de l'affaire Lyhanna qui a réveillé un sursaut collectif en France, j'ai ressenti le besoin d'essayer de comprendre les failles structurelles majeures dans la protection de l'enfance en France, et ce que nous pouvons faire concrètement, pour mieux défendre les droits des enfants.C'est la raison pour laquelle nous avons organisé cette table ronde avec trois personnalités engagées dans la défense des droits de l'enfant : pour prendre la mesure d'un phénomène systémique, et explorer, ensemble, les voies du changement.Il s'agit du replay d'un live instagram du 24 juin 2026.Pour en parler, j'accueille :➜ Nathalie Beal-Guillaume, ancienne avocate et fondatrice de @parents.vie, pour mieux comprendre le fonctionnement de notre système judiciaire et les failles qui peuvent conduire à de telles situations en matière de protection de l'enfance.➜ Arthur Melon, délégué général du COFRADE (Conseil Français des Associations pour les Droits de l'Enfant), pour éclairer la question de l'enfantisme, des droits de l'enfant et des leviers d'engagement permettant de lutter efficacement et collectivement contre toutes les formes de violences faites aux enfants.➜ Aurélie Grêlé-Rouveyre, fondatrice de @placedelenfance et de la fresque de l'enfance, pour décrypter notre culture commune de l'enfance et les mécanismes qui peuvent ouvrir la voie aux violences envers les enfants.Nous abordons des thèmes cruciaux, tels que :➡️ Pourquoi certains crimes envers les enfants provoquent une indignation nationale, alors que la grande majorité des violences restent taboues ou minimisées.➡️ Le concept de « continuum des violences » : violences ordinaires, sexuelles ou institutionnelles forment un même système de tolérance et d'inaction.➡️ Comment la méfiance et les biais culturels à l'égard de la parole de l'enfant persistent et influencent les institutions judiciaires.➡️ Les failles judiciaires : manque de moyens humains, peu de personnels formés, délais trop longs et perte de confiance dans la justice pour enfants.➡️ Les racines historiques et culturelles de la domination adulte/enfant : comment elles nourrissent des mécanismes de violence intériorisés, et pourquoi le simple statut d'"adulte" demeure un facteur de toute-puissance injustifié.➡️ Les obstacles psychologiques au changement : le syndrome du « moi aussi j'ai reçu une gifle et je vais bien », le confort du statu quo, la difficulté à se projeter dans une société apaisée et respectueuse des besoins de l'enfant.➡️ Les leviers pour agir : formation des professionnels, changement de culture, création de conditions collectives pour accompagner les familles plutôt que de responsabiliser uniquement les parents.➡️ L'importance d'agir aussi bien à titre individuel (prise de conscience, changement de regard, refus de la banalisation des violences à la maison ou dans l'espace public) que collectif (associations, plaidoyer politique, mobilisation autour du budget public, réseaux de solidarité).➡️ Des exemples internationaux inspirants (Suède, Canada, Belgique) où des politiques publiques volontaristes ont permis de quasiment éradiquer certaines violences, et ce que cela révèle sur le retard de la France en la matière.J'espère sincèrement que ce live vous proposera un état des lieux lucide, mais aussi une boussole, pour comprendre les mécanismes de la violence, envisager des solutions concrètes et (re)donner toute leur place à l'écoute et à la protection des enfants.
Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 26 juin 2026.Avec cette semaine :Antoine Foucher, président de la société de conseil Quintet, spécialiste des questions sociales.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.Lionel Zinsou, ancien Premier ministre du Bénin et président de la fondation Terra Nova.LA CANICULE, SUJET POLITIQUE ?Le 17 juin, quelques jours avant le nouvel épisode caniculaire, le ministre de la Ville et du Logement, Vincent Jeanbrun, a présenté un plan « endurance » pour l'adaptation à la hausse des températures, alors qu'un tiers des logements est constitué de bouilloires thermiques. Selon lui, « la canicule n'est pas une question météorologique ou climatique, c'est désormais une question de justice sociale ». Intervenant aux côtés du ministre du Logement, la ministre de la Transition écologique, Monique Barbut a reconnu que la France souffre d'un « grand retard collectif » tout mettant en avant trois axes : « Remettre la nature dans les villes pour les rafraîchir » et faire des quartiers prioritaires « des précurseurs de la transformation écologique des territoires » ; « encourager les solutions efficaces pour limiter la surchauffe des bâtiments », comme les volets, en demandant par exemple aux bailleurs sociaux un recensement des bâtiments sans occultation des baies vitrées ; et développer « des solutions performantes pour permettre le rafraîchissement des bâtiments » avec « d'ici à septembre » un tarif réduit de TVA à 5,5 % pour les climatiseurs réversibles, décidé en loi de finances 2026.« Aucune annonce réelle », a cinglé la Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés (ex-fondation Abbé Pierre) qui a annoncé qu'elle s'associait à un recours en justice, lancé en 2025 par des citoyens et les ONG de « L'affaire du siècle » qui accusent l'Etat de manquer à son obligation de protéger la population des impacts du réchauffement climatique. Associations et climatologues déplorent une politique qui met l'accent sur la gestion de crise plutôt que sur une véritable adaptation. Pourtant, en 2023, pour faire face aux canicules répétées, la France s'était dotée d'un plan d'adaptation, une feuille de route censée préparer le pays à un réchauffement de 4 °C d'ici à 2.100, avec une batterie de mesures sur les logements, les exploitations agricoles ou les transports afin de se préparer à une hausse des températures de 4 °C en 2.100. Jugé insuffisant, y compris par le Haut Conseil pour le climat, le plan dispose de peu de moyens financiers. Au cours de ces dernières années, des outils pour s'adapter au changement climatique comme le fonds vert ont été fortement rabotés dans un contexte budgétaire contraint : la dotation de ce dispositif très prisé des élus locaux est passée de 2,4 milliards d'euros en 2024 à près de 840 millions d'euros en 2026.LE BREXIT 10 ANS APRÈSÀ la veille du dixième anniversaire du vote en faveur du Brexit, le premier ministre britannique travailliste, Keir Starmer, a été contraint à la démission, deux ans à peine après une nette victoire électorale. Si la décision prise, le 23 juin 2016, par une majorité (51,9 %) des électeurs britanniques de quitter l'Union européenne n'est pas directement la cause de la disgrâce de M. Starmer, elle a contribué à créer un climat économique et politique dégradé.Les études sur l'impact du Brexit sur l'économie vont toutes dans le même sens. Celle publiée en novembre 2025 par le National Bureau of Economic Research, un groupe de réflexion américain, a estimé « qu'à la date de 2025, le processus du Brexit a réduit le PIB britannique de 6 % à 8 %, l'investissement de 12 % à 18 %, l'emploi de 3 % à 4 % et la productivité de 3 % à 4 % ». D'après un récent sondage du think tank European Council on Foreign Relations, les Britanniques estiment que le Brexit a eu un impact négatif sur presque tous les sujets : le coût de la vie (66 %), l'économie (65 %), les perspectives des jeunes (57 %) ou encore l'immigration clandestine (56 %). Interrogés sur les effets positifs du Brexit, la réponse la plus donnée par les Britanniques est : « je ne sais pas ».Dans ce contexte, les termes de « Breturn » ou « Breunion » ont surgi ces dernières semaines. Une majorité de Britanniques (55 %) se déclarent favorables à un retour de leur pays parmi les membres de l'UE, quand un tiers (34 %) s'y opposent, d'après YouGov. Toutefois, les Britanniques favorables à un retour du Royaume-Uni dans l'UE tomberaint à 35 % si le pays ne pouvait plus bénéficier de ses dérogations antérieures et devait donc adopter la monnaie unique et participer à l'espace Schengen. Un retour à l'Europe des 28 ne semble donc pas se dessiner. Bruxelles et Londres avancent plutôt depuis plusieurs mois vers un rapprochement. Un sommet entre les deux parties doit avoir lieu le 22 juillet prochain dans la capitale européenne. Ce serait le deuxième après un précédent tenu en mai 2025. Reste à savoir si ce rendez-vous, annoncé la semaine dernière, sera maintenu à la suite de la démission de Keir Starmer. Andy Burnham, nouvel élu de la région de Manchester et favori pour le remplacer à la tête du Parti travailliste et du même coup à Downing Street, ne cache pas qu'il considère le Brexit comme une erreur sans prôner un retour dans l'Union.Le flou entretenu par les brexiters concernant le régime qui suivrait la sortie de l'UE a été pour beaucoup dans le chaos de l'après-23 juin, et notamment la succession rapide de six premiers ministres en moins d'une décennie. Surtout, le Brexit a ouvert un boulevard à une extrême droite contre laquelle on avait imaginé le Royaume-Uni vacciné. La figure de proue en est Nigel Farage – chef, avant le référendum de 2016, du Parti pour l'indépendance du Royaume-Uni, et aujourd'hui de Reform UK, parti actuellement en tête des sondages britanniques.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

What happens at one of the world's largest rheumatology conferences, and why should patients care? In this special episode of The Health Advocates, Steven Newmark is joined by Dr. Shilpa Venkatachalam, Director of Patient-Centered Research at the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF), to discuss the biggest takeaways from EULAR 2026, the annual congress of the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology. The conversation explores why conferences like EULAR are so important for advancing patient care, how researchers, physicians, and patient advocates work together to shape the future of rheumatology, and why the patient voice has become an essential part of medical research. Steven and Shilpa also highlight GHLF's contributions to this year's conference, including two original research posters examining barriers to the early recognition of hidradenitis suppurativa and the unmet informational and support needs of people living with Sjögren's disease. Along the way, they discuss exciting emerging trends in rheumatology and clinical care, especially the increasing emphasis on patient-reported outcomes. Whether you're living with a rheumatic disease, caring for someone who is, or simply interested in the future of healthcare, this episode offers an inside look at how today's research is helping shape tomorrow's treatments—and why patient perspectives are more important than ever.

In this episode of JUST Branding, we're joined by Ulli Appelbaum, globally respected brand strategist, founder of First The Trousers, and author of The Science of Brand Associations. Ulli has spent years helping organisations understand how brands grow by shaping the associations people hold in memory. In this conversation, we unpack one of the most important and often misunderstood areas of branding: how associations are formed, strengthened, measured, and used to drive real business growth. We explore why some brands own clear memory structures while others remain vague, how emotion and storytelling help build associations, and what marketers often get wrong about consistency, distinctiveness, and meaning. If you want to build a brand that is easier to notice, easier to remember, and easier to choose, this episode will give you a practical look at the science behind brand growth.
Social determinants of health impact more patients than we often realize—and many of those barriers show up in the pharmacy every day.In this episode of Independent Insights, host Britney Woods, Sr. Manager of Community Pharmacy at McKesson Health Mart, sits down with Jennifer Powell, Lead Clinical Pharmacy Technician and Community Health Worker at Gibbs Pharmacy, to discuss how she and her team are actively bridging these gaps to better support their patients.From helping patients navigate food access and affordability to improving engagement and follow-up, Jenny shares real examples of how this work is helping to improve care and outcomes—and how it can be intentionally integrated into the pharmacy through a Pharmacy Technician Community Health Worker role.Listen to this insightful conversation to learn how adding a Community Health Worker to your team can help support patient care, engagement, and your pharmacy's impact in the community.HostBritney Woods, PharmDSr. Manager, Community PharmacyMcKesson / Health MartGuestsJennifer Powell, CPhT, CHW, DCCCLead Clinical Pharmacy TechnicianGibbs PharmacyResourcesHealth Mart Pharmacies can access Health Mart University (HMU) for:Helpful CE courses and more on Community Health WorkersHealth Mart pharmacists to claim their CE credit for weekly Gamechanger episodes ReferencesNational Association of Community Health WorkersHome - NACHW - National Association of Community Health WorkersNational Academy for State Health PoliciesState Community Health Worker Policies CHW Networks & Associations by StateNetworks and Training Programs - NACHW - National Association of Community Health WorkersCEimpact Community Health Worker TrainingPharmacy-Based Community Health Worker TrainingThe views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the guest and do not necessarily represent the views or positions of Health Mart, McKesson or its affiliates or subsidiaries ("McKesson”).

The same glucosamine pill millions take for joint pain may protect a healthy brain — and accelerate Alzheimer's in a brain already in decline. Here's the science.In this episode of Health Longevity Secrets, Robert Lufkin MD breaks down the 2026 plot twist on glucosamine and dementia: why a supplement once hailed as a longevity hack now carries an Alzheimer's warning, and why the answer comes down to one thing — the state of your metabolism. The same molecule helped the metabolically healthy and may have harmed the metabolically broken. The supplement didn't change; the soil it landed on did.Chapters:00:00 — Introduction00:39 — The Supplement Everyone Trusted01:06 — UK Biobank: Glucosamine and 15% Lower Death Risk01:38 — Why Glucosamine Looked Like a Longevity Hack02:48 — The 2026 Plot Twist: Nature Metabolism Study03:53 — Alzheimer's Mice and the Glucosamine Pathway04:13 — How Sugar Tagging (Glycosylation) Explains Both04:57 — Hyperglycosylation in the Alzheimer's Brain05:34 — The Honest Caveat: Association vs Causation06:55 — The Takeaway: Metabolic Health Decides EverythingKey takeaways:In healthy, cognitively normal adults, regular glucosamine use has been tied to lower all-cause mortality and lower risk of dementia — especially vascular dementia.A June 2026 University of Florida study in Nature Metabolism found the opposite signal in sick brains: in people with mild cognitive impairment, glucosamine use was associated with a 25% higher likelihood of progressing to Alzheimer's, and a 25% higher death risk in those already diagnosed.In Alzheimer's mice, glucosamine made memory worse; blocking the same sugar-tagging pathway made it better.The mechanism is metabolic: glucosamine feeds glycosylation (sugar-tagging of proteins). A healthy brain handles it fine; an Alzheimer's brain is already hyperglycosylated, so adding more is "pouring gasoline on the fire."This is association, not proof of cause — and the literature is genuinely mixed. If you're healthy, it's not a fire alarm. If you or a loved one has MCI or dementia, talk to your physician before the next refill.Studies & sources:Hawkinson et al., "Hyperglycosylation is a metabolic driver of Alzheimer's disease," Nature Metabolism 2026 (University of Florida)University of Florida news release on the glucosamine–dementia findingZheng et al., "Association of regular glucosamine use with incident dementia," BMC Medicine 2023 (UK Biobank)Habitual glucosamine use, APOE genotypes, and cause-specific dementia in older adults (UK Biobank)Li et al., "Associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality," Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 2020 (UK Biobank)Read Dr. Lufkin's book "Lies I Taught in Medical School".⭐ Enjoying the show?

What if one of the most important health crises affecting men today wasn't being caused by aging, but by the environment we live in? In this eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien investigates the alarming decline in testosterone levels, fertility, and reproductive health among men worldwide. Drawing on decades of research, epidemiological studies, environmental science, endocrinology, and public health data, Darin examines the growing evidence connecting endocrine-disrupting chemicals, microplastics, sleep deprivation, chronic stress, poor lifestyle habits, and environmental toxins to declining testosterone levels across generations. From BPA, phthalates, atrazine, PFAS, and microplastics to sleep quality, circadian rhythms, cholesterol metabolism, cortisol regulation, and natural testosterone-supporting strategies, this episode explores what may be one of the most underreported public health issues of our time—and what men can do to take control of their health today. What You'll Learn Why testosterone levels have been declining for decades The startling research on global sperm count decline How endocrine-disrupting chemicals interfere with hormone production Why BPA and phthalates may disrupt testosterone synthesis The role of atrazine, PFAS, and environmental toxins How chronic stress diverts resources away from testosterone production Why sleep may be the most important testosterone intervention The connection between cholesterol and hormone production How microplastics are being found throughout the human body The surprising relationship between statins and testosterone levels Natural lifestyle strategies that support healthy hormone production Practical steps to reduce environmental exposure and improve health Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Fatty15 and cellular health 00:04:17 – The testosterone collapse explained 00:04:51 – Testosterone levels have been declining for decades 00:06:03 – Global sperm count decline and accelerating trends 00:07:02 – Why treating symptoms misses the root cause 00:07:27 – The hidden public health crisis 00:08:03 – Why low testosterone isn't just about aging 00:09:12 – Why hormone health affects longevity 00:09:53 – Low testosterone and increased mortality risk 00:10:35 – Testosterone's role in metabolism and cardiovascular health 00:11:27 – Endocrine-disrupting chemicals and hormone disruption 00:12:44 – BPA and its effects on testosterone production 00:13:59 – Phthalates and their impact on hormone pathways 00:16:00 – Glyphosate, atrazine, and pesticide exposure 00:17:07 – PFAS and reproductive health concerns 00:17:55 – Environmental toxins and population-wide effects 00:18:11 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:20:02 – Cholesterol and hormone production 00:20:53 – Chronic stress and cortisol dominance 00:21:45 – Actionable solutions begin 00:21:56 – Why sleep is essential for testosterone production 00:23:07 – How sleep deprivation rapidly lowers testosterone 00:23:21 – Light pollution and circadian disruption 00:23:41 – Foods and nutrients needed for hormone health 00:24:23 – Microplastics and testicular tissue 00:24:53 – Statins and unintended hormonal consequences 00:25:39 – A practical testosterone sovereignty protocol 00:25:48 – Water filtration and reducing toxic exposure 00:26:13 – Eliminating plastics and fragrance chemicals 00:26:35 – Why organic food matters 00:26:45 – Sunlight and vitamin D 00:27:05 – Magnesium, omega-3s, and iodine 00:27:26 – Pine pollen and natural androgen support 00:28:01 – Tongkat Ali and ashwagandha 00:28:48 – Strength training and lifestyle interventions 00:29:10 – Habits that naturally support testosterone 00:29:27 – Darin's approach to healthy aging 00:29:37 – Plants, herbs, and common sense 00:29:51 – Reclaiming your health and sovereignty 00:30:00 – Final thoughts and closing message Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

It may be a reflection of the modern environment itself—one increasingly saturated with endocrine-disrupting chemicals, chronic stress, poor sleep, circadian disruption, and toxic exposures. While many of these forces feel outside our control, the encouraging reality is that many of the most powerful interventions remain accessible: improving sleep, reducing toxic load, eating whole foods, getting sunlight, managing stress, exercising regularly, and reclaiming responsibility for our health. The goal isn't fear. The goal is awareness—and action." Bibliography/Sources: The Decline — Primary Research Levine, H., Jørgensen, N., Martino-Andrade, A., et al. (2022).

Could you have metabolic dysfunction even at a normal weight?This episode challenges everything we've been taught about weight and health. Dr. Cooper reveals that up to 25% of normal-weight people have metabolic syndrome, yet they're rarely screened because doctors assume they're healthy based on appearance alone.KEY TAKEAWAYSWeight and metabolic health are not the same thing - you can be metabolically unhealthy at any sizeNormal weight people with metabolic dysfunction are often overlooked and undertreated by healthcare providersKey screening tests include fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and inflammatory markers like HSCRPMetabolic dysfunction can start in your 20s and take decades to develop into serious diseaseBoth normal weight and higher weight patients face bias - normal weight people aren't screened enough, while higher weight people have everything blamed on their weightEarly screening and treatment can prevent catastrophic health outcomes later in lifeThe liver plays a crucial role in metabolism and can become insulin resistant regardless of body weightNOTABLE QUOTE"You cannot tell anything about someone's health from their outside, what they look like or what, even what they're doing necessarily, but definitely not their body size. So you can be healthy or unhealthy at any size body, and I think that's what's overlooked quite a bit." — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: fatsciencepodcast.comCooper Center for Metabolism: coopermetabolic.comResources from Dr. Cooper: coopermetabolic.com/resourcesJoin Our Community: patreon.com/cw/FatSciencePodcastSubmit Your Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comAppendix: Key ReferencesPrimary literature supporting this episode• Wang et al.

What if the anxiety, overthinking, people pleasing, emotional shutdown, hypervigilance, burnout, and relationship struggles you experience today… were never actually "you" to begin with? In this deeply personal and profoundly eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien dives into the hidden nervous system programming formed between the ages of 0 and 8 that silently shapes our adult lives. Drawing from neuroscience, trauma research, attachment theory, epigenetics, somatic healing, and his own emotional breakthroughs, Darin explores how childhood experiences become subconscious operating systems that influence everything from relationships and stress responses to chronic disease and self-worth. This episode is a powerful roadmap toward healing. Darin breaks down the science behind trauma, the ACE study, nervous system dysregulation, emotional patterning, and neuroplasticity, while also sharing practical tools like somatic experiencing, expressive writing, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems to help listeners begin rewiring their emotional lives from the inside out. What You'll Learn How childhood experiences program the nervous system Why most adult emotional reactions are subconscious survival patterns The connection between trauma, stress hormones, and chronic disease How the nervous system stores emotional experiences in the body Why people pleasing, hypervigilance, burnout, and emotional shutdown develop The science behind neuroplasticity and rewiring the brain What the ACE Study revealed about childhood trauma and adult health How trauma impacts the amygdala, hippocampus, and stress-response systems Why emotional patterns are adaptations, not character flaws How epigenetics can pass trauma responses across generations The role of somatic experiencing in trauma healing Practical tools for emotional regulation and nervous system repair

They are not your identity. They are not permanent. And through awareness, somatic healing, emotional processing, nervous system regulation, and conscious repetition, those deeply rooted patterns can be rewritten into something healthier, freer, and more aligned with who you truly are."

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how memories are formed and how key neurochemicals, such as adrenaline, can be leveraged to enhance memory formation. I also share science-based protocols to enhance learning, strengthen memory recall and reduce the number of repetitions needed to retain new information. In addition, I discuss how exercise supports cognitive function and memory and explore unique memory phenomena such as déjà vu. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.
