New guidelines from the 2025 Alzheimer's Association International Conference support using high-performing blood tests to help diagnose Alzheimer's in memory care patients, offering a less invasive option than spinal taps or PET scans. A NEJM trial found the smaller NTCU380mini IUD nearly as effective as the standard TCU380A, with fewer side effects and better tolerability. Lastly, a large study showed that adults with diabetes who exercised—even only on weekends—had significantly lower mortality, supporting flexible activity patterns.

"I come from a long line of medical doctors... but I myself was driven by things that move fast in terms of technology." From a family of physicians, Susan Tousi chose a different path—one that would eventually revolutionize how we detect cancer. After decades building multi-hundred million dollar businesses at HP and Kodak, digitizing how the world captures and shares memories, she made a leap that surprised many: trading the consumer tech world for the promise of genomic medicine. "Healthcare was moving fairly slowly in terms of technology adoption," Susan recalls. But when Illumina came calling, she saw her chance to change that. As Chief Product Development Officer and later Chief Commercial Officer, she helped drive the cost of human genome sequencing from over $100,000 down to just $100—making the technology accessible in 155 countries worldwide. Now, as CEO of DELFI Diagnostics, Susan is tackling one of healthcare's deadliest challenges: lung cancer kills more people annually than breast, colorectal, and cervical cancers combined—yet 94% of those who should be screened never get tested. Her solution? A simple blood draw that can detect cancer at stage one, powered by AI and whole genome sequencing, at a cost of just a few hundred dollars. "If you can get blood drawn, you can get our test," Susan explains. "These tests should be in the few hundreds of dollars, easily covered by the healthcare system, available to patients without copay. Everyone's cancer should be caught early. It should be an annual process." In this powerful episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Susan also reveals: What happens when you reduce genome sequencing costs from $100,000 to $100 and why it matters for every patient Why blood-based testing will make cancer detection as routine as annual physicals—no radiation, no invasive procedures The surprising ways AI and machine learning are uncovering cancer signals in blood How to build diverse leadership teams naturally What really changes (and doesn't) when you become a biotech CEO Why the hardest CEO decisions are about people and focus, not technology From engineering at HP to revolutionizing digital photography at Kodak to detecting cancer at its earliest stages, Susan's journey proves that the fastest-moving technology innovations can transform the slowest-moving healthcare challenges—when you're willing to take the leap. "There's no greater mission than advancing the improvement of people's healthy lifespan," Susan reflects. "We need women at the table. These are long-term investments. We need to make sure that the diverse population of patients and clinicians who are going to use our tests are represented in the people who develop the tests. That diversity makes us better." A member of the National Academy of Engineering, Susan Tousi is reshaping how we think about cancer detection—making it accessible, affordable, and available anywhere you can have blood drawn. This is the future of healthcare, and it's happening now.

Hey Friend, Have you ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling totally defeated—even though they said “everything looks normal”? But inside, you know something's off. You're exhausted, bloated, foggy, or anxious... and you're wondering if it's all in your head.

 A new blood test being developed for coeliac disease that avoids people having to eat gluten to confirm the condition.

Hello Friend, Have you ever been told, “Your blood tests are normal,” but deep down you know something isn't right? It's one of the most frustrating things to hear, especially when you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, or other unexplained symptoms. Here's the truth: those “normal” lab results might still hold valuable clues about your health—if you know where to look. Your CBC panel, a test you've probably already had done, includes five key markers that can reveal so much about what's really going on inside your body. In this week's episode of Functional Medicine for Christian Women, I break down the CBC differential and explain how Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils, and Monocytes can provide insight into your immune function, inflammation, and even chronic stress. I'll show you why this simple test is often the best starting place for uncovering the root cause of your symptoms—and how you can use it to take the first step toward feeling better. In health, Lacy Lain, FMCHC, LEHP P.S. If you've ever felt dismissed by conventional doctors, I made this episode with you in mind. Let's start finding the answers your body is trying to tell you.

Episode 25:26 The Signs, Symptoms And Blood Tests That Define Insulin Resistance Believe it or not, there's a really good chance that the cells of your body are Insulin Resistant. That's not good because Insulin Resistance is THE cause of many major chronic conditions. Conditions such as heart disease, fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, cancer, obesity, Alzheimer's, PCOS, erectile dysfunction and infertility. Unfortunately, most doctors know very little about Insulin Resistance. How to identify it or how to treat it. That's not good. The truth is, EVERYONE should know about Insulin Resistance. - What it is. - How to know if you have it. - Steps you can take to reverse it. On this episode I address what Insulin Resistance is and the blood tests you need to have done to see if you have it. It's information that I feel is extremely valuable and should be taught to everyone. So please be sure to give it a good listen and then share it with a friend.  Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

Hey, Heal Squad! We're bringing back a powerful two-part conversation with Anthony William, otherwise known as the Medical Medium! Trust us, it's just as relevant today as it was when we first aired it. In Part 1, Anthony opens up about the misunderstood root causes of so many chronic health issues, from anxiety and fatigue to autoimmune conditions and mystery symptoms doctors often dismiss. He explains why heavy metals, viral load, and liver congestion may be silently impacting your brain, skin, energy, and even your relationships. Anthony also dives into how foods like celery juice, wild blueberries, and lemon water are more than just trends…they're powerful tools to cleanse, rebuild, and restore your body from the inside out. If you've ever felt unheard, misdiagnosed, or stuck in survival mode, this episode is for you. Tune in to start getting answers and real solutions that empower you to take your healing into your own hands.  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Toxic overload isn't just food-related. Fragrances, heavy metals, and environmental pollution are silent contributors to chronic illness, and most people don't even know they're being exposed. Fish oil isn't always a friend. While often seen as a health staple, Anthony challenges its benefits and warns about hidden dangers most doctors won't tell you about. Your bloodwork may not be telling the full story. Common testing practices could disrupt your body more than help it. Anthony explains how to protect your health when giving blood samples. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist THE MEDICAL MEDIUM RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicalmedium/?hl=en  Website: https://www.medicalmedium.com/  Find Anthony's books (& some of my other favorites!) here: https://shopmy.us/collections/106835 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

​In a groundbreaking new study, researchers have developed a blood and urine test capable of identifying how much ultra-processed food is in your diet. By analyzing metabolites—chemicals produced as the body breaks down food—researchers can now distinguish between individuals who consume high amounts of ultra-processed foods and those who eat little to none. Listen in this week as Dee discusses the details of this study and how the test works, what it means for the future of nutrition research and personalized nutrition, and how it could help guide healthier food choices.Reference: Abar, L., Steele, E.
