For some women, middle age is a renaissance where they're most comfortable with themselves and thrive in ways they didn't in their 20s or 30s.

In today's podcast, "Solving Life's Next Chapter," our guest is Dr. Mohamed Teleb MD, a practicing Neurologist and Educator in the Metro Phoenix area. Dr. Teleb explains what a stroke is and how to identify when someone is experiencing one. Dr. Teleb explains that the #1 cause of disabilities in the United States is the result of strokes. Dr. Teleb explains that there are two different types of strokes; one is a brain bleed, which accounts for only 10-15% of the strokes, whereas 90% of strokes are large vessel strokes which cause more issues and are the most devastating. Either stroke is a potential danger and in this podcast, Dr. Teleb will explain how to identify them and why it is important to identify them early. Dr. Teleb explains that we have approximately 80,000 strokes per year in the United States and it cost 79 Billion Dollars every year, and that number is going up. This number is new cases of strokes and it affects millions of Americans every year. Dr. Teleb and his group of doctors have trials they have worked on to help identify strokes early so patients can get the help they need quickly. Because as Dr. Teleb explains, getting a stroke patient in earlier will help the outcome of the patient much more and will reduce or eliminate these disabilities. Dr. Teleb has an easy way for us to determine whether someone is having a stroke, Let's learn about the FAST VAN program.F- Face (drooping of the face)A-Arm (if you put up both arms, does one hang lower)S- Speach (is the speech slurred)T- Time (time is of the essence with a stroke)*The faster you get a stroke patient to the doctors and better the outcome!These are a great way to identify any stroke, however, VAN is a way that you can identify a large vessel stroke which is the most dangerous. V- Vision (are the eyes forced over to the right or left)A- Aphasia (is when someone cannot say what a particular item is) N- Neglect (ignore your left body)Aphasia is usually affecting the right side of the patient and the Neglect is usually on the left side of the patient's body.Dr. Teleb has worked locally with first responders and local hospitals using FAST VAN and this initiative has been a huge success. This FAST VAN initiative will eventually be national. I invite you to listen in to hear what Dr. Teleb for all the information on how to identify major strokes.

Michael A. Grandner, PhD, Arizona College of Medicine, provides an overview of the many aspects of sleep, how it impacts functioning, and the ways we can improve the quality of our sleep. Dr. Grandner is an experienced researcher, noted speaker, and respected colleague at many prestigious institutions. He serves as the director of the Sleep and Health Research Program at the University of Arizona, and as director of the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Clinic at the Banner-University Medical Center. Additionally, Dr. Grandner is an assistant professor in the departments of psychiatry and medicine in the UA College of Medicine, assistant professor of psychology in the UA College of Science, as well as an assistant professor of nutritional sciences in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. He is certified in behavioral sleep medicine by the American Board of Sleep Medicine. Dr. Grandner discusses the connections between sleep and health and how it plays an important role in many and various areas of functioning. He states that a lot of their research focuses on finding ways to help with sleep improvement. He looks at quality and quantity of sleep, timing, when people are sleeping, and why. He gives details on the range of ways they study sleep in their laboratory. He talks about the various types of emerging technologies that can assist them with measuring the aspects of sleep. As sleep exists deep in the brain, it is impossible to perfectly measure sleep, thus Dr. Grandner states that they must measure around it, guessing at other measures such as movement and brain wave activity, etc. Achieving healthy sleep is crucial for great overall health, cardiovascular health, and is also an important factor in obesity, diabetes, and psychological well being. And as such, when we don't get enough of it, or the quality level is low, functioning can be impacted in many ways. Interestingly, Dr. Grandner points out that many people actually degrade their own opportunity to achieve quality sleep by reinforcing periods of insomnia. As he states, the best thing to do when you're in bed and can't sleep is to get up. Lying in bed and trying to fight it only reinforces the state, essentially teaching your brain that bedtime is a time for brain activity and thought. Thus getting out of bed and taking on some sort of activity till you feel ready to sleep could prove helpful. Dr. Grandner outlines some of the research and interesting studies his team is involved with currently as well as other studies on the horizon. Current research focuses on the ways sleep and sleep-related behaviors could be connected to cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, neurocognitive functioning, mental health, and even longevity. Their projects have been funded by the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA), the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD), the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), and the American Heart Association (AHA). Their community-based studies consider a vast swath of issues from social environment, access to care, stress, diet, and exercise, as well as aspects of cardiometabolic functioning, to look at the ways sleep is related to each. Dr. Grandner seeks to develop new tools to help people gauge the kind of sleep they are getting and how to improve it. In regard to sleep, Dr. Grandner states, it is not something that you can command. We need to give ourselves the right environment, mentally and physically, that will allow sleep to happen. He discusses the quality versus the quantity, and the ways to evaluate that, as well as the importance of regular sleep patterns. Dr. Grandner discusses the internal body clocks that govern function, and the various types of personalities and genes that play a role in sleep schedules. He discusses the sleep-wake system versus the circadian system, which relates to the biological process that displays an endogenous, entrainable oscillation of approximately 24 hours. He explains how hormone shifts and rhythms can be changed, shifted, and blunted, and how light can help with making adjustments, in regard to the winter blues, seasonal affective disorder, etc. Dr. Grandner has published over 100 articles and chapters on myriad issues relating to sleep and health. His significant work in the field has been cited over 2,500 times. Dr. Grandner is associate editor of the recognized journal, Sleep Health, and he serves on the editorial boards of various other journals: SLEEP, Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, Sleep Medicine, and others. He is a sought-after speaker on the connection between sleep and good health and as such has been invited often to the National Institutes of Health, and has presented for the US Congress.
