This time on Code WACK!    For the second episode in our two-part series on racism in medicine, in honor of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr, we're asking the question: What is racially concordant care and how does it help save lives? What else can be done to reduce deadly disparities in medicine?    To find out, we spoke to Dr. Uché Blackstock. Blackstock, author of the New York Times best-selling book “Legacy: A Black Physician Reckons with Racism in Medicine,” which is now available in paperback.  She's also the founder and CEO of Advancing Health Equity, an organization that aims to dismantle racism in healthcare and narrow racial health inequities. Blackstock was named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People in Global Health and one of the Top 13 Innovators Shaping the Future of Health by Fortune Magazine.   Check out the Transcript and Show Notes for more!

Welcome to this episode of The Tonic, terrestrially broadcast on March 2 and 3, 2024 on AM740 and FM 96.7 in Toronto. Topics covered on the show track the lifestyle articles and themes published in Tonic Magazine. This week we'll discuss the importance of Omega 3 fatty acids with naturopath Dr. Ludo Brunel, whether you are taking too much magnesium with naturopath Dr. Barb Woegerer, new findings regarding Celiac disease with charity leader Melissa Secord and the work of the Black Physicians Association of Ontario with executive director Chenai Kadungure.

On this episode, Dr. Emmanuel Bujold addresses the gross underutilization of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in Canada during pregnancy, a treatment highly effective in preventing preterm preeclampsia among those at risk.Dr. Bujold is an OB-GYN in Quebec City and a professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Laval University's School of Medicine. He is a co-author of the commentary in CMAJ entitled, “Screening for preeclampsia risk and prophylaxis with acetylsalicylic acid”.Dr. Bujold presents evidence showing ASA's effectiveness in preventing more than 80% of severe preeclampsia cases. He advises that high-risk pregnant women take ASA up to 36 weeks of gestation, with ongoing research potentially adjusting this recommendation.Dr. Bujold describes a simple, relatively inexpensive, and widely available testing protocol that can effectively predict preeclampsia in the first trimester and that starting aspirin before 16 weeks of pregnancy can prevent severe cases.Next, Dr. Modupe Tunde-Byass, an OB-GYN based in Toronto and the inaugural president of the Black Physicians of Canada, emphasizes the disparities in pregnancy outcomes among racialized communities, particularly the higher rates of morbidity and mortality among Black women. She advocates for the implementation of race-based data collection in healthcare to better understand and address these disparities, highlighting the importance of tailored medical approaches to improve outcomes for these communities.This podcast has been sponsored by PrescribeIT.

Tune in for today's industry updates.

Dr El-Hadi provided us with the opportunity to learn about how things are, how they've been, and how we can all be a part of positive change, moving forward.

Did you celebrate Juneteenth this year? What about previous years? What did you do to celebrate? How will that change in the future? The Docs discuss new possibilities for celebrating Juneteenth now that the holiday will be a 3-day weekend in the future. The Docs brainstorm heritage sites they and their families could visit to enrich their understanding of Black history.  Juneteenth - also known as Jubilee Day, Emancipation Day, Freedom Day, and Black Independence Day -  is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. From its Galveston, Texas origin in 1865, the observance of June 19th as the African American Emancipation Day has spread across the United States and beyond. On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed the bill making Juneteenth the eleventh American federal holiday and the first to obtain legal observance as a federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was designated in 1983. This has been controversial for many different reasons - the Docs weigh in with their own reactions.--New Episodes every Tuesday, available wherever you get your podcasts! Rate and Subscribe!

On May 31, 1921, a white mob turned Greenwood upside down in one of the worst racial massacres in U.S. history. In the matter of hours, 35 square blocks of the vibrant Black community were turned into smoldering ashes. Over 1,000 homes and businesses were looted and set on fire. Read more about the Tulsa Race Massacre here. --New Episodes every Tuesday, available wherever you get your podcasts! Rate and Subscribe!

Article discussed in today's episode:Antiracism in Academic Medicine: Fixing the Leaky Pipeline of Black Physicians

We know the phrase "You are what you eat", but do we know what we are actually eating? In the US, we have moved away from farm fresh foods, and toward more processed foods which has affected the way our bodies process food. The Docs delve into the impact of the food industry on our health and wellness. Dr. Karen brings up the documentary, Food, Inc. and how corporate farming and policy has affected what foods are available to the community; Dr. Tiffany talks about the benefits of a veggie heavy diet; and Dr. Zanetta speaks on how you can tell if your body isn't processing food well.Food, Inc. is a 2008 American documentary film that examines corporate farming in the United States, concluding that agribusiness produces food that is unhealthy, in a way that is environmentally harmful and abusive of both animals and employees. The film's first segment examines the industrial production of meat (chicken, beef, and pork). The second segment looks at the industrial production of grains and vegetables (primarily corn and soy beans). The film's third and final segment is about the economic and legal power, such as food labeling regulations, of the major food companies, the profits of which are based on supplying cheap but contaminated food, the heavy use of petroleum-based chemicals (largely pesticides and fertilizers), and the promotion of unhealthy food consumption habits by the American public. --New Episodes every Tuesday, available wherever you get your podcasts! Rate and Subscribe!
