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?

BUFFALO, NY – May 19, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 9, 2025, titled “Analytical validation of a circulating tumor DNA assay using PhasED-Seq technology for detecting residual disease in B-cell malignancies.” In this study, a team from Foresight Diagnostics led by first author Nina Klimova and corresponding author Laura Hyland validated a new DNA-based blood test designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with B-cell cancers. This assay uses a highly sensitive method called Phased Variant Enrichment and Detection Sequencing (PhasED-Seq) to find tiny fragments of tumor DNA in the blood. Its ultra-sensitive detection capabilities offer a powerful tool for early cancer detection, monitoring treatment response, and predicting cancer reappearance. B-cell lymphomas, such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), are among the most prevalent blood cancers. Although many patients respond to initial treatment, up to 40% relapse. Standard monitoring methods such as imaging scans often miss low levels of cancer cells, creating a need for more precise tools. This study introduces a non-invasive blood test that improves the detection of MRD, a critical factor in guiding follow-up care and early intervention. The test works by tracking unique groups of mutations known as phased variants in tumor DNA. These mutations are more specific to cancer and allow for highly accurate identification of tumor fragments in the bloodstream. The PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay was tested on three types of samples. First, blood plasma from healthy individuals was used to confirm the test does not give false positives. Second, researchers created controlled samples by mixing tumor DNA from lymphoma patients with healthy DNA to measure how sensitive and precise the test is. Finally, blood samples from patients with B-cell lymphoma were used to compare the new test to an existing method. Across all sample types, the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay demonstrated exceptional performance—capable of detecting fewer than one cancer DNA molecule per million normal DNA fragments. It also demonstrated a very low false positive rate and over 96% reproducibility across different laboratory conditions. Compared to an existing method, the new PhasED-Seq assay showed more than 90% agreement in positive results and nearly 78% agreement in negative results. In cases where the tests disagreed, the new method aligned more closely with actual clinical outcomes, including whether patients relapsed or stayed in remission. “The background error rate of the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay was 1.95E-08, or 1.95 mutant molecules in 100 million informative molecules.” The findings support the use of PhasED-Seq-based MRD assays in routine clinical practice. It could be especially useful for identifying patients who need additional treatment even when imaging results appear normal. This aligns with updated clinical guidelines that encourage the use of blood-based DNA tests to supplement traditional scans in lymphoma care. This study offers strong evidence that the PhasED-Seq-based MRD assay is a precise, reliable, and clinically relevant tool. By detecting signs of cancer earlier and more accurately, it may help clinicians tailor treatments to individual patients and improve long-term outcomes in B-cell malignancies.

In this episode of Menopause Mastery, I sit down with Sumit Rai, founder of Cancer Check Labs, to uncover a groundbreaking new approach to cancer screening and prevention. We dive deep into how cancer really develops—years before it's detectable by traditional scans—and why early detection at the cellular level could be the key to saving millions of lives. Sumit shares the powerful story behind his mission, the hidden dangers accelerating cancer rates (including toxins, diet, and lifestyle), and how standard treatments like chemo and surgery often miss the bigger picture. We also explore his revolutionary blood test that can find cancer cells before tumors become visible—and how new technologies like blood filtration could transform cancer care forever. If you're serious about proactive health, longevity, and protecting yourself and your loved ones, this is a must-listen conversation packed with science, hope, and action steps you can take today.
Dr. Rany Aburashed, CEO and Founder of Neurogen Biomarking, is using a blood-based biomarker looking at p-tau 217 to detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease, up to 8-10 years before the onset of clinical symptoms. The company has built an ecosystem to provide patients with a comprehensive health assessment with an at-home blood test, cognitive testing, access to neurologists, and education on lifestyle changes that can support a good quality of life. Their mission is to take a proactive rather than the current reactive approach to diagnosing and slowing the progression of cognitive decline. Rany explains, "The challenge for us, and this is what I saw from years of clinical practice and hospital management, is that a disease like Alzheimer's operates almost like a green light. Life is okay, you're having minor issues, but for the most part, you're moving along. Then suddenly you notice a sentinel event, which then becomes that red light, and now you have Alzheimer's dementia. And so the issue that is at the core of Alzheimer's is early detection. Is there a way for us to detect things earlier and, in turn, provide patients with an opportunity to take control of their dementia and make the necessary changes in treatments?" "In the current setting, the way that we do it in the United States and around the world is really reactive and it is too late by the time your mother or father is developing cognitive complaints. It's very easy to ignore the early stages of it because you can function for three to five years without really anything dramatic happening. So suddenly, when that dramatic instance occurs, for example, you leave the stove on, or you get lost driving back to your house, something that's very obviously outside of the normal, that might trigger you to say, "Let's get Mom checked." "At launch, our focus is on using the biomarker called p-tau 217. This biomarker can be detected now with more technologies in the blood at microscopic levels, and we couldn't do that effectively 10 or 15 years ago. That science has caught up, and the technology has caught up to a point that now, even 8 to 10 years before any significant clinical symptoms occur, we're able to detect if this protein is elevated. Now, if this protein is elevated, depending on the assay that we use, it's about 93%-97% sensitive for potentially developing Alzheimer's long-term. So it's a good protein to use as a triage protein." #NeurogenBiomarkings #Biomarkers #BloodBiomarkers #Alzheimers #AlzheimersDisease #CognitiveDecline #Dementia #EarlyDetection #Neurologists NeurogenBiomarking.com Download the transcript here

Alzheimer's doesn't just “happen” later in life—it's a slow, silent process that can begin decades before symptoms appear. In this solo episode, we challenge the myth that Alzheimer's is purely genetic, and break down what the science really says about your risk. I explore the role of the APOE4 gene, how it interacts with lifestyle and metabolic health, and why women—especially during and after menopause—may face a unique vulnerability. Most importantly, I introduce three cutting-edge blood tests that can detect the earliest signs of Alzheimer's, long before memory loss sets in. We'll also talk prevention: from blood sugar and insulin resistance to inflammation, hormone balance, and brain energy metabolism—everything you can start doing right now to safeguard your cognitive future. This is more than a conversation about Alzheimer's—it's a roadmap for taking control of your brain health. SponsorsA huge thank you to my sponsors for supporting this episode.
