Podcasts about BMI

Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Freaks—the podcast where we explore how melody can lift us out of darkness. I'm your host, James Cox, a self‑declared “professional handicapped” advocate for mental‑health awareness, and today I'm honored to sit down with one of the most resilient, inventive, and inspiring musicians you'll ever meet: Peter Manning Robinson.From a three‑year‑old prodigy who instinctively knew the piano was his lifeline, to a survivor of sexual abuse and street homelessness, Peter has turned every hardship into a conduit for healing. He's an Emmy‑winning composer, a multi‑BMI award‑winner, and the creator of the groundbreaking Refractor Piano—a hybrid of hardware and software that re‑imagines what a piano can sound like in real time.In this conversation we'll:Uncover how a childhood trauma and a profound love for the piano became Peter's emotional equalizer.Hear the story behind his double‑helix concept albums, the raw grief of External Incursions, and the fire‑laden inspiration behind Excursions.Learn how a bout of debilitating tendinitis forced him to reinvent his technique, leading to a six‑month “martial‑arts” piano regimen that restored his playing and sparked an explosion of melodic, lyrical work.Dive into the birth of the Refractor Piano, a prism‑like instrument that refracts acoustic sound into entirely new textures—performed live, with no synths, no overdubs, just pure, spontaneous creation.Get Peter's brutally honest advice for anyone who feels their passion slipping away, and his mantra for staying present, grateful, and forever curious.Whether you're battling depression, searching for a new creative outlet, or simply love hearing how one artist turns adversity into art, this episode is a masterclass in resilience, innovation, and the unshakable power of music. Grab a cup of coffee (or tea—Peter's happy with both), settle in, and let the conversation remind you why, when words fail, music always speaks.

Episode Title: Connected by Hope: How Sister Keli and Stephanie Bates Found Friendship Through Transplant Episode Description: What happens when two people who have walked through illness, uncertainty, and waiting find each other on the other side of survival? In this heartfelt episode of This Thing Called Life, host Andi Johnson welcomes Sister Keli and Stephanie Bates, whose connection began through transplant but became something much deeper—a sisterhood built on understanding, resilience, and hope. Together, they share their individual journeys through kidney disease, dialysis, setbacks, and ultimately transplantation. Through moments of heartbreak, perseverance, and unexpected friendship, Stephanie and Sister Keli reflect on what it means to keep showing up, trust the process, and find purpose in giving back. Their stories are a powerful reminder that healing doesn't happen alone—and sometimes the people who understand us best are the ones who have walked a similar road. Episode Highlights Host Andi Johnson welcomes Stephanie Bates and Sister Keli, two women whose lives became connected through their shared transplant journeys and commitment to supporting others. Stephanie reflects on how her health journey began after a traumatic cesarean delivery in 1999 that caused damage to her kidney. Years later, after noticing swelling in her leg, Stephanie sought medical care and was diagnosed with stage three kidney disease, beginning a long season of monitoring and treatment. From 2003 to 2013, she managed her condition through regular nephrology care before eventually beginning dialysis as her disease progressed. Stephanie shares the difficult but determined process of becoming transplant eligible, including being encouraged to lose weight in order to qualify. Through dedication and support, she achieved her health goals and was officially added to the transplant list in 2018. In 2019, Stephanie received her first kidney transplant, but unexpected complications during the COVID era eventually led her to undergo a second transplant in 2024. Sister Keli shares her own experience of learning her kidneys had progressed into end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and initially struggling to fully accept the seriousness of the diagnosis. She reflects on a turning point when conversations and encouragement from people around her helped her recognize the urgency of beginning treatment. Sister Keli started with peritoneal dialysis, later transitioning to hemodialysis after complications and challenges with treatment. Her journey included major life changes—including divorce and the eventual loss of a limb due to complications connected to inadequate dialysis treatment. Despite those setbacks, she remained committed to her health and continued pursuing transplant eligibility. Stephanie and Sister Keli describe meeting through a community connection event and immediately sensing a familiar understanding between them. What started as an invitation to volunteer quickly developed into a meaningful friendship rooted in shared experience. Both women speak openly about how transplant and dialysis journeys can feel isolating—and how finding someone who truly understands can change everything. They reflect on the emotional complexity of receiving a transplant call: excitement, disbelief, fear, gratitude, and awareness that another family experienced loss. The conversation highlights the emotional and physical realities of transplant while emphasizing the importance of hope, advocacy, and community support. Stephanie and Sister Keli encourage listeners to stay committed to treatment plans, ask questions, lean on others, and remember that healing often happens in connection with community. Key Takeaways: 1. Healing Is More Than Medical—It's Relational Recovery isn't only about procedures and appointments. Community, connection, and shared understanding can become powerful parts of the healing journey. 2. Small Decisions Can Create New Possibilities From staying committed to dialysis to making lifestyle changes for transplant eligibility, each step forward can open the door to life-changing opportunities. 3. Hope and Gratitude Can Coexist With Hardship Transplant journeys carry both joy and grief. Receiving a second chance at life often comes with deep appreciation for donors and renewed purpose moving forward. Tweetable Quotes “You have to be in a certain BMI to receive a transplant. The doctor connected me with weight loss people, we got a weight loss plan together, and I dropped that weight. Then less than six months after I dropped that weight, I was listed.” Stephanie Bates “I feel like the Lord started sending people to talk to me. You get a call from somebody that you haven't heard from in a while, and they have a message for you. And so these people over the weekend started talking to me, and I said, "Oh no,”  I said, "This is serious.” And so I reported, and they put me on peritoneal dialysis.” Sister Keli “This is why I'm here now, speaking out to people and letting them know, take your treatments seriously, don't cut off your treatments, don't skip your treatments, because the after effect of that? Sometimes you can't even come back from it.” Sister Keli “I'm like, something is familiar about her. And then I come to find her birthdays around my birthday, we just were familiar and able to link, but more than that, she understood where I had been, and I understood where she had been, and that was something I didn't have with any of my other friends.” Sister Keli “It (bond they share) creates a sense of like, “So there is someone who knows exactly what I'm going through.” Now our stories are not entirely the same. We've been through the same types of situations, the waiting process, “Is the kidney ever coming in?”, all the procedures, and all the testing. It feels daunting, it feels overwhelming.” Stephanie Bates Resources: Donatelifeky.org https://getoffthelist.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/about-us/ https://www.networkforhope.org/stories-of-hope/ https://www.facebook.com/NetworkForHopeOPO https://www.youtube.com/@NetworkforHope. https://aopo.org/ RegisterMe.org/NetworkforHope

In this episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. Edelman and Dr. Pettus are joined by pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Jamie Wood, medical director of pediatric diabetes at Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital and an investigator on the INHALE-1 trial, to talk through inhaled insulin in kids and where it fits in real-world pediatric care.The conversation focuses on the recent approval of Afrezza for children as young as six, and what the INHALE-1 trial actually showed. Dr. Wood walks through the study design, A1C results, lung-function and safety data, and the practical aspects of dosing inhaled insulin in a pediatric population. Rather than positioning it as a replacement for injections or pumps, the discussion centers on finding the right fit for each child's needs, from the newly diagnosed kid with a needle phobia to the teen trying to dose discreetly during a 20-minute school lunch.Dr. E, Dr. P, and Dr. Wood also discuss the everyday realities that shape how this option is used, including the set-dose cartridge sizes, a titration approach refined in clinic, and how families are mixing and matching tools alongside automated insulin delivery. The takeaway is encouraging: there are more options than ever for managing mealtime insulin in kids, and this one may help fill some of the gaps left by injections and pumps.Key Topics • The recent approval of inhaled insulin for children as young as six • How the INHALE-1 pediatric trial was designed • A1C results and what the primary endpoint analysis showed • Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) metrics across the two groups • Lung-function (FEV1) monitoring and pediatric safety • Weight and body mass index (BMI) findings • Why mealtime dosing is a leading unmet need in pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) • The set-dose cartridge approach and how it reframes meal sizes • A real-world titration method for inhaled insulin • Managing cough and other practical considerations • Needle phobia and the kids who struggle most with injections • Using inhaled insulin alongside automated insulin delivery (AID) systems • What's coming next, including a smaller cartridge dose and a new-onset trial Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram: / tcoydFacebook: / tcoydStay connected!

Shoshana's ceremony-induced rebirth experiences directly motivated her to reframe sex work and erotic expression as spiritual practices rather than taboo activities. • Religious symbolism in sexual content triggers deeper cultural anxiety than the sexuality itself. The backlash against her work centered more on the use of Jesus and Mary Magdalene imagery than the explicit content, revealing how religious institutions weaponize shame around sexuality. • Sex workers and erotic performers position themselves as spiritual healers, not moral transgressors. Let's curb our judgement! By redefining their work through a sacred lens, they challenge the foundational shame narratives that justify social stigma and argue this reframing could revolutionize how society treats sex workers, and sexuality. Guest Bio: Shoshanna Blanca, also known as Jesus Christ Pornstar, is an erotic performance artist and adult star best known for Christian and Jewish-inspired content including The Second Cumming—a series of vlogs and performances telling the story of Jesus and Mary Magdalene through a psychedelic lens—and Uncovering Eve, a collection of images, videos, and verses exploring women and womanhood in the Bible. After a decade as a feminist writer and sex educator, she made OnlyFans her art gallery to provide a visual companion to her award-winning book Eve's Blessing: Uncovering the Lost Pleasure Behind Female Pain. Since then, she's released a variety of female-friendly solo content for Ersties, MakeLoveNotPorn, and Pornhub, including an "ADHD Masturbation" series where she describes her fantasies and tangential thoughts while self-pleasuring and "Hysterical Literature Bible Readings," where she reads from the Bible and other sacred texts while using a Hitachi Magic Wand. She's also a model with photographs published in many magazines and an advocate for body positivity. As one of those people who looks "overweight" and "plus-size" on paper but skinny in person, she aims to dismantle the ridiculous sizing and BMI charts that have become false gods. Through her thought-provoking pornography and social media presence, she's starting a whores revolution, encouraging whores of all sorts to rise up, remember Jesus already saved a spot for them in heaven, and get too loud and proud for people to label them damaged goods—or for whorephobic fuckboys to label them hookup material but not marriage material. She popularized and advocates radical Christianity, a belief system that preaches zero divine laws except: Be who you are.

The conversation also tackles the rising use of GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic and Wegovy) in kids as young as 10 — what the research says, what parents and teens should know, and why these medications are a tool, not a solution on their own.

In deze aflevering nemen Margriet en ik je mee in onze zwangerschap: deel 2 van 3. Na drie cycli thuisinseminatie was het in maart zover, ik was zwanger. We keken zelf met de echo, trouwden rond twaalf weken en deelden met onze drie grote dochters via roze confetti dat er een meisje op komst was.Ik vertel eerlijk over de keuzes die we onderweg maakten: waarom we bewust geen NIPT deden, maar wel de 20-wekenecho voor behandelbare afwijkingen. Daarbij zagen ze een laagliggende placenta.We bereidden de babykamer voor en gingen op babymoon, maar niet alles verliep zoals gehoopt. Vanwege mijn BMI deed ik een glucosetest, waarna zwangerschapsdiabetes werd vastgesteld. Eerst hield ik het zelf in de gaten en was een dieet voldoende, maar door stijgende nuchtere waarden moest ik uiteindelijk insuline gebruiken.Bij 32 weken bleek mijn baarmoederhals te verkorten, met regelmatige harde buiken. We werden opgenomen en ik kreeg longrijping en weeënremmers omdat dit zou kunnen passen bij een vroeggeboorte. Gelukkig bleef ze nog in mijn buik zitten en deed ik het weken rustig aan om een vroeggeboorte te voorkomen. Later planden we juist een inleiding bij 38 weken vanwege de zwangerschapsdiabetes, maar toen braken 1 dag voor de inleiding mijn vliezen spontaan!Een eerlijk en kwetsbaar verhaal over zwanger zijn met zwangerschapsdiabetes, een dreigende vroeggeboorte en alle keuzes die daarbij komen kijken. In deel 3 hoor je hoe de bevalling zelf verliep.Deze aflevering is in samenwerking met de Billenboetiek. Wij zijn enorm enthousiast over hun wasbare luiers. Wil je meer weten?

Im aktuellen Podcast mit Stefan Brink und Niko Härting geht es insbesondere um Extremistisches: Zunächst sprechen wir (01:32) über die Beleidigung des Bundeskanzlers als Lackaffe. Einen Besuch des Kanzlers in Heilbronn im Oktober 2025 kommentierten Hunderte Nutzer bei Facebook (FB-Account des Polizeipräsidiums Heilbronn!?), einer titulierte unseren Kanzler als Lackaffe. Auf Antrag der Staatsanwaltschaft erließ das AG Heilbronn einen Strafbefehl wegen Beleidigung gegen Personen des politischen Lebens (§ 188 StGB), da „in diesem Fall kein sachlicher Zusammenhang mit dem politischen Wirken bestand, sondern die Ehrverletzung im Vordergrund stand". Der Strafbefehl wurde nicht rechtskräftig, nach Einspruch wurde das Verfahren gegen Geldauflage von 100 € eingestellt. Die Bezeichnung des Bundeskanzlers als „Pinocchio“ blieb als „Machtkritik“ unbeanstandet. Sodann sprechen Niko und Stefan (09:20) über Alterskontrolle bei Meta. Meta Platforms führt seit Mai 2026 in Europa eine KI-gestützte Alterskontrolle auf Instagram, Facebook und Threads ein. Ziel sei es, zuverlässiger zu erkennen, ob Nutzer beim Alter falsche Angaben gemacht haben, insb. Kinder und Jugendliche. Die KI wertet u.a. Bilder (z.B. von Geburtstagsfeiern), Texte, Kommentare, Reels, Sprachgebrauch und Nutzungsverhalten aus. Erkennt das System, dass ein Nutzer unter 13 Jahre alt ist, wird das Konto gesperrt und dann gelöscht. Bei Jugendlichen zwischen 13 und 17 Jahren werden sog. „Teen Accounts“ automatisch aktiviert, die strengere Schutzmechanismen enthalten. Statistiken Metas zeigen allerdings, dass 97 Prozent der 13- bis 15-jährigen Nutzer ihre Standardeinschränkungen beibehalten haben. Gleichzeitig läuft ein Verfahren der EU-Kommission gegen Instagram und Facebook, die davon ausgeht, dass weiterhin viele Kinder unter 13 Jahren Zugang zu den Plattformen haben. Die Kommission beziffert den Anteil unter 13-Jähriger auf den Plattformen auf rund 12 Prozent und argumentiert, dass die bisherigen Schutzmaßnahmen nicht greifen. Meta selbst sieht allerdings die Verantwortung auch bei Betriebssystem- und App-Store-Anbietern wie Apple und Google Im Kampf gegen Social-Media-Sucht zahlten Techkonzerne inzwischen Millionen an US-Schulbezirke, welche die Unternehmen beschuldigen, süchtig machende Technologien entwickelt zu haben, die erhebliche Kosten für psychologische Beratung und andere Hilfsangebote verursachen, für die bislang die Schulen aufkommen müssen. Die EU-Kommission hat hierzu eine Empfehlung vom 29. April 2026 veröffentlicht, die den EU-weiten Zugang zu Altersverifikationstools auf Basis anonymer Altersnachweistechnologien und damit die höchstmöglichen Standards für Datenschutz und Datensicherheit gewährleisten soll. Extrem viel los bei diesem Thema. Schließlich geht es (24:01) um die stattgebende Entscheidung des Verwaltungsgerichts Berlin vom 27.4.2026. Es gibt dem Eilantrag der „Jüdischen Stimme für gerechten Frieden in Nahost e.V.” statt, der sich dagegen wehrt, im Verfassungsschutzbericht 2024 des BMI als extremistisch eingestuft zu werden. Anders als das VG Köln (vom 20.5.2026) setzt das VG Berlin der „staatlichen Öffentlichkeitsarbeit“ Grenzen: Meinungsäußerungen alleine könnten kein ausreichender Anknüpfungspunkt für eine verfassungsfeindliche „Bestrebung“ (§ 4 Abs. 1 BVerfSchG) sein. Über die bloße Meinungsäußerung hinaus sei ein aktives Vorgehen zur Realisierung eines bestimmten Ziels erforderlich. Extrem wichtig, den Eindruck zu vermeiden, der Staat schütze nicht die Verfassung, sondern sich selbst oder seine politische Ziele.

Burn Fat While You Sleep, Boost Metabolism & Fast the Smart Way with guest expert Dr. William Li #64What if everything you've been told about metabolism, fat, and weight loss is wrong? In this episode, Samantha sits down with Dr. William Li for a second conversation in season 2 (Check out Episode #62, if you missed it - and Season 1 Episode #14 as well!).Dr. Li dismantles everything you thought you knew about metabolism, visceral fat, and intermittent fasting — revealing the science-backed strategies that let your body burn dangerous fat while you sleep, eat, and live your life.Dr. Li is an internationally renowned physician-scientist, president of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Your Diet — to expose the myths that have kept so many women stuck in a cycle of dieting, frustration, and self-blame.Spoiler: your metabolism is not broken. It never was.From the newly discovered science proving that human metabolism stays rock-stable from age 20 to 60, to the hidden danger of "skinny fat" and its shocking link to breast cancer, to the brilliantly simple 12-hour fasting protocol Dr. Li himself follows every day — this episode is a masterclass in working with your body instead of against it. Plus, the true origin story of the famous 16:8 intermittent fasting method that no one is talking about.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:Your metabolism is NOT slowing down: Learn the findings from a landmark study of 6,000 people that completely rewrites what we thought we knew about metabolism — and where the real culprit actually lives.Fat is a hormone-producing organ: Discover why healthy fat is essential to your metabolic function, and what happens to your hormones when it starts to grow out of control.Excess fat behaves like a tumor: Find out why Dr. Li says too much body fat follows the same dangerous playbook as cancer — and why that makes chronic inflammation so much more urgent to address.Skinny fat is a real and serious risk: Learn what a 13-year Cornell study found when it scanned nearly 3,500 normal-weight women — and why the results are a wake-up call for women who think they're in the clear.Foods that burn fat at the cellular level: Discover which everyday grocery store foods contain natural bioactives that work against fat growth — and how they do it without you changing everything on your plate.The tape measure test: Find out why your waistline tells a more accurate story about your health than your BMI, your scale, or your body size — and how to use it at home for free.Why 12 hours of fasting is enough: Learn the surprisingly achievable protocol Dr. Li follows himself every single day — and why the research says you don't need to go longer to see real results.The truth about 16:8: Discover the origin story of the most popular intermittent fasting method — and why its famous time window has almost nothing to do with human science.Insulin is the metabolic switch: Understand the simple biological reason your body burns fat while you sleep — and how the timing of your last meal determines how hard it works overnight.Ultra-lean is not ultra-safe: Find out why the medical literature puts extreme leanness in the same dangerous category as extreme obesity — and what that means for how we define a healthy goal.About Our GuestDr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist, researcher, and author whose work has impacted over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. He is the founder and president of the Angiogenesis Foundation and is best known for his groundbreaking TED Talk, Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?, which has been viewed by millions worldwide. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and Eat to Beat Your Diet: Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer.

Welcome back to Diabetes Dialogue: Technology, Therapeutics, & Real-World Perspectives!In this episode, shot live at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Scientific Sessions 2026 in New Orleans, Louisiana, cohosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, discuss the latest major trial results like CONNECT, TRIUMPH, and TRANSCEND.To begin the episode, Isaacs and Bellini, discuss major highlights from ADA Scientific Sessions, focusing first on the landmark CONNECT trial evaluating continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in people with type 2 diabetes who are not treated with insulin. They reflect on the evolution of CGM technology, from its early use primarily in type 1 diabetes to its expanding role in type 2 diabetes management, and explain why this trial represents an important step forward for patients who have historically had limited access to CGM.The hosts review the randomized controlled trial findings, emphasizing the significant improvements in glycemic outcomes, including a 1.6% reduction in A1c from baseline and an approximately 0.9% greater reduction compared with standard care. They also highlight the increase in time in range, with participants using CGM achieving roughly five additional hours per day in target glucose range. The magnitude of these findings is discussed as a practice-changing development, with the potential to influence future clinical guidelines and strengthen recommendations for CGM use among individuals with type 2 diabetes who are not using insulin.The discussion also explores the broader implications of the CONNECT trial for healthcare access and insurance coverage. The hosts note that randomized controlled trial evidence has historically played a key role in shaping standards of care and payer decisions, and they suggest that these results may help support wider adoption of CGM by demonstrating meaningful improvements in glucose control and patient outcomes.The conversation then shifts to emerging pharmacologic advances, with a focus on retatrutide, a novel triple agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon pathways. The hosts discuss new data showing substantial metabolic benefits in people with type 2 diabetes, including up to 17% weight reduction and nearly 2% A1c lowering. They highlight how these findings represent a major advancement in diabetes and obesity treatment, particularly as clinicians continue to see increasingly powerful effects from next-generation incretin-based therapies.Isaacs and Bellini explore how these therapies may reshape treatment strategies by allowing clinicians to tailor medication choices based on individual patient needs and goals. They discuss the importance of considering both glucose lowering and weight reduction effects, recognizing that some patients may benefit from significant weight loss while others may require a more balanced approach focused primarily on glycemic improvement.The hosts also address important unanswered questions surrounding the use of highly effective weight-loss medications, including appropriate treatment targets, the limitations of BMI as a measure, and the importance of preserving muscle mass and overall function. They emphasize the need to consider body composition, physical activity, resistance training, and patient characteristics—particularly in older adults or those at risk for frailty—when developing long-term treatment plans.The episode concludes with a reflection on the rapidly evolving landscape of diabetes care. The hosts highlight how advances in CGM technology and novel metabolic therapies are creating new opportunities to improve outcomes, personalize treatment approaches, and redefine the future management of people living with diabetes.Editors' Note: Isaacs reports disclosures with Dexcom, Abbott, Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Medtronic, Insulet, and others. Bellini reports disclosures with Abbott Diabetes Care, MannKind, Povention Bio, and others.

Dr. Liz Graves didn't set out to become a doctor. She discovered chiropractic as a patient, fell in love with its foundational philosophy that the body heals from the inside out, and built a career around that principle. Today, as the founder of Back 2 Real Food, she helps people restore their metabolic health through food, cyclic nutrition strategies, and targeted amino acid therapy — without relying on willpower, calorie restriction alone, or one-size-fits-all dieting.In this episode, Dr. Tara Perry sits down with Dr. Graves for a wide-ranging conversation on why so many people are doing "everything right" and still can't lose weight, what the modern food system is doing to our metabolism, and the counterintuitive strategies that actually work.Key Takeaways:The real reason diets stop working (00:07:00) — Every time you diet without recovery, your body adapts to living on less, slowing your metabolism over time. Dr. Graves explains her cyclic approach: a structured window of fat loss followed by a deliberate high-calorie phase that trains the body to metabolize more, not less.Seed oils are the #1 offender in your diet (00:16:44) — Vegetable, canola, sunflower, and safflower oils disrupt cell walls, cause inflammation at the cellular level, and impair mitochondrial function. Removing them is the first and fastest win Dr. Graves makes with every new client.Three foods worth adding right now (00:19:41) — Healthy natural fats (animal fats, olive oil, coconut oil), quality mineral-rich sea salt, and more whole foods without a label. Small additions that compound into meaningful change.Know your farmer (00:21:49) — Pesticide load, not the food itself, is driving the explosion in leaky gut, celiac, and autoimmune conditions. Dr. Graves recommends the Weston A. Price Foundation as a starting point for finding local farmers and co-ops, and makes the case that buying direct is often cheaper than buying organic at a grocery store.Targeted amino acid therapy changed everything (00:26:56) — Most people have never worked with a practitioner who assesses neurotransmitter imbalances and uses amino acids to correct them. Dr. Graves explains how depleted GABA, serotonin, and dopamine pathways fuel emotional eating, overwhelm, and burnout — and how replenishing them through targeted therapy gives people the neurological resilience to stay on course.Cortisol, stress, and weight retention (00:32:41) — Chronic low-grade stress (email, notifications, relentless demands) keeps the body in protective mode, holding weight and suppressing metabolic function. Dr. Graves connects the modern stress environment to the ancestral body we're still living in, and explains why supporting the brain matters as much as fixing the food.Body composition over the scale (00:58:06) — Dr. Graves uses body composition testing (muscle, fat, water, bone) rather than BMI or scale weight to track real progress. She shares the story of a five-foot-one woman with 105 pounds of muscle who technically "should" weigh 100 pounds — and why that framing is misleading and discouraging.What results actually look like (00:47:24) — On Dr. Graves' six-week protocol, most people lose about 10 pounds and drop one clothing size. On the nine-week plan, 15 to 30 pounds and two clothing sizes. She describes it as achieving six to nine months of focused progress in six to nine weeks — structured and demanding while you're in it, but consistently described as the easiest thing clients ever did when they look back.Ready to take your own next step?Visit calendly.com/consulttara/consult to book your free customized consultation with Dr. Tara Perry and get your GPS map — the coordinates for where you are now and where you want to go.

Dr. Spencer and Karl Nadolsky sit down with David W, a nurse practitioner and one of the actual patients enrolled in the Triumph 1 retatrutide phase 3 trial, to break down the data that was just presented at the American Diabetes Association conference and explain why everyone in obesity medicine is paying very close attention. In this episode they cover what retatrutide actually is and why adding glucagon agonism to the GLP-1 and GIP dual agonism of tirzepatide creates a meaningfully different drug with direct effects on liver lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and fat catabolism that you do not see with semaglutide or tirzepatide alone, what David's personal experience in the 12 milligram arm looked like from dose escalation through steady state including the GI side effects that faded by month seven and the heartburn that a low dose PPI fixed quickly, how David went from 240 pounds and a BMI of 35 down to 167 pounds by the end of the trial representing roughly 30 percent weight loss which is right at the trial average, what the Triumph 1 obesity trial found at 80 weeks with the nine and 12 milligram doses delivering nearly 26 and 28 percent average weight loss respectively and almost half of patients on the highest dose losing 30 percent or more, why the 104 week extension data showing patients who stayed on 12 milligrams reaching 30.3 percent average weight loss is being compared to bariatric surgery outcomes, what the Transcend type 2 diabetes trial showed with average A1C dropping to 5.9 percent on the 12 milligram dose in patients who were on no other diabetes medication, why the 41 percent triglyceride reduction and 20 percent LDL reduction are particularly interesting given that the mechanism appears to involve multiple pathways in the liver that tirzepatide and semaglutide do not touch, what the 70 percent reduction in WOMAC knee arthritis pain scores and 60 percent reduction in sleep apnea events mean for patients who have been told their only option is surgery, how Spencer plans to use retatrutide clinically once it is approved and which patients he thinks are the right candidates, why the gray market research peptide version currently circulating is something both doctors strongly advise against, and what Triumph 2 and Triumph 3 are measuring and when that data is expected.

We react to the viral post that racked up 1.5 million views, break down what "obese" actually means, and explain why BMI is an outdated tool that was never designed to measure your health. We also get into what actually matters — body fat percentage, where you carry your weight, and the waist-to-height ratio you should actually be paying attention to. Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_8nonbBsA-mTli1KLlHlrA/joinWork with JeanineBook a free consult https://bit.ly/4dUHYZeMike's YouTube Channel:  @escoelitemindsetMike's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/@escoelitemindsetSupport our Sponsors1UP Nutrition Code: JEANINEhttps://1upnutrition.com/JEANINEHRT & Peptides (Tell them Jeanine Escobar when filling out ntake)https://www.vitabella.comMegaFit Meals - Code Jeanine10 https://megafitmeals.rfrl.co/p75q7Built Bar Code: MRSCEOJhttps://builtbar.com?baapp=MRSCEOJSupport us by following on Social MediaAmazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/mrsceo_jLTK Fashion Links: https://www.shopLTK.com/explore/MrsCEO_JShopmy https://shopmy.us/shop/mrsceoj?Section_id=1519253&tab=collectionsInstagram: https://instagram.com/mrsceo_jInstagram: https://instagram.com/candidly_withcoffeeWeight Loss IG: https://instagram.com/@coach.jeanineescobarTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mrsceo_j

In this episode, Dr. Neil Naik and I unpack a foundational question—is obesity actually linked to cancer, and what's really driving that connection? We explore the underlying biology, from chronic inflammation and insulin resistance to the hormonal activity of adipose tissue, and why visceral fat may matter more than we think.We then move beyond risk and into what happens after a diagnosis—how obesity can influence treatment response, toxicity, dosing, and outcomes across chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. The conversation also highlights the often-overlooked phase of survivorship, including the role of metabolic health in recurrence risk and long-term prognosis.We close by discussing where emerging therapies like GLP-1 medications fit, how clinicians can move beyond BMI toward more individualized care, and how to talk about the obesity–cancer connection in a way that informs without adding shame.My Guest Dr. Neil NaikDr. Neil Naik, a family physician, educator, and innovator based in Waterloo, Ontario.

VOV1 - Trung tâm nghiên cứu ung bướu quốc gia Nhật Bản (NCCJ) vừa công bố phiên bản mới nhất của các phương pháp phòng chống ung thư, trong đó có những thay đổi lớn về cách tiếp cận đối với loại bệnh nan y này.Từ năm 2014, Trung tâm nghiên cứu ung bướu quốc gia Nhật Bản đã công bố “Phương pháp phòng chống ung thư dựa theo căn cứ khoa học” và liên tục có những điều chỉnh nội dung phù hợp với từng giai đoạn. Trong phiên bản mới nhất vừa được sửa đổi sau 3 năm, ngoài 5 yếu tố gây bệnh chủ yếu, bao gồm hút thuốc, uống rượu, tập quán ăn uống, cách thức vận động cơ thể và cân nặng, cơ quan này bổ sung thêm yếu tố thứ 6 là lây nhiễm.Liên quan yếu tố mới nêu trên, ung thư vốn được coi không phải là bệnh truyền nhiễm, nhưng theo những nghiên cứu mới nhất, có tới khoảng 20% bệnh nhân mắc ung thư do nguyên nhân lây nhiễm một số loại virus và vi khuẩn như vi khuẩn HP, virus HPV, virus viêm gan B và C. Do đó, đây được coi là tác nhân không thể bỏ qua.Ở nhóm nguyên nhân liên quan đến cân nặng, Trung tâm nghiên cứu ung bướu quốc gia Nhật Bản đã điều chỉnh chỉ số khối cơ thể (BMI) – một thước đo mức độ béo gầy của cơ thể, từ mức 21-27 trước đây lên 21-25 đối với tình trạng béo phì ở cấp độ gây nguy cơ ung thư ở cả nam giới và phụ nữ.Đặc biệt, các chuyên gia ung bướu Nhật Bản đã thay đổi hoàn toàn cách nhìn nhận về tác hại của đồ uống có cồn khi điều chỉnh nội dung này từ mức “hạn chế uống rượu” sang “tránh uống rượu”. Về điều này, bà Wada Keiko – Trưởng phòng nghiên cứu đánh giá phòng ngừa của Trung tâm nghiên cứu ung bướu quốc gia Nhật Bản nói: “Không thể phủ nhận tính cần thiết của việc uống rượu, nhất là khi gặp gỡ bạn bè. Tuy nhiên, việc không uống rượu lại là cách phòng chống ung thư tốt nhất. Mọi người nên từng bước tìm ra cách thức phù hợp để giảm thiểu rủi ro”Bên cạnh đó, các chuyên gia Nhật Bản cũng nhấn mạnh, ngoài không hút thuốc và không uống rượu, việc duy trì thói quen ăn uống lành mạnh và cách thức vận động cơ thể phù hợp cũng là phương pháp phòng tránh ung thư rất hiệu quả./.Tuấn Nhật /VOV Nhật BảnTrung tâm nghiên cứu ung bướu quốc gia (NCCJ) và Bệnh viện ung bước trung ương Nhật Bản.

Perfekt zum Mitlernen, Wiederholen und zur Vorbereitung auf deine Fitnesstrainer Prüfung.

Zwischen DDR-Müll, Amtsphantasien & der beruhigenden Erkenntnis, dass der nördliche Sternenhimmel manchmal für ein paar Euro zu haben ist. Diese Folge beginnt, wie gute Kernsanierung eben beginnt: Nicht mit Überblick. Nicht mit einem Plan. Und ganz sicher nicht mit einer belastbaren Finanzierungsstrategie. Sondern mit einem Irrläufer. Oder mehreren. Antje und Jens gehen rein. Zwischen die Häuser. Zwischen den Müll. Zwischen das, was da eben so lagert, wenn ein Haus nicht einfach nur Haus ist, sondern über Jahrzehnte hinweg auch Archiv, Ablage, Zwischenwelt und möglicherweise Endlager für Matratzen, Flaschen und russische Geschichtsbücher war. Noch aus DDR-Zeiten. Noch ziemlich da. Noch nicht Gold. Denn leider entdeckt Jens auch diesmal nicht den lange erhofften Schatz, der den beiden finanziell den Allerwertesten retten würde. Stattdessen: Schutt. Staub. Spuren. Und die leise Frage, ob dieses Haus vielleicht schon 1797 als Messy-Haus geplant und gebaut wurde. Antje findet: Dafür spricht einiges. Vor allem die besondere Statik. Dann lernen wir etwas, das in keiner Bauakte steht, aber vermutlich dringend dokumentiert werden müsste: den berühmten Jenser Vorschluck. Was das ist? Warum das passiert? Ob Jens damit zum Arzt muss? Ob es vielleicht etwas Ernstes ist? Hört Ihr in der Folge. Wir können an dieser Stelle nur sagen: Es wird körperlich. Es wird rätselhaft. Es wird sehr Kernsanierung. Außerdem gibt es Neues aus'm Amt. Im Zusammenhang mit dem Totalabgang der beiden ist nämlich ein behördlicher Irrläufer aufgetaucht. Und weil man in diesem Podcast aus einem Verwaltungsvorgang grundsätzlich auch eine Weltverschwörung bauen kann, fragt Jens sich irgendwann, ob es das Statistische Amt Mecklenburg-Vorpommern überhaupt gibt. Also wirklich. Existiert es? Oder ist es nur eine Idee? Eine Projektionsfläche? Ein bürokratisches Hologramm mit Briefkopf? Die beiden entwickeln daraufhin eine neue Verschwörungstheorie, die wiederum Antje gedanklich direkt zu ihrem neuen Buch führt, das Jens ihr geschenkt hat: „Witches, Bitches, It-Girls“ von Rebekka Endler. Darin geht es unter anderem um die Erfindung des BMI. Und dessen Ursprung liegt, wie sich herausstellt, eigentlich in den Sternen. Ja. Richtig gelesen. Von DDR-Müll über Behördenpost zum Body-Mass-Index und dann direkt ins Universum. Kernsanierung eben. Die angekündigten Hiobsbotschaften werden übrigens noch einmal verschoben. Das ist natürlich kein Ausweichen. Das ist Dramaturgie. Ein ordentlicher Spannungsbogen muss schließlich auch mal gepflegt werden. Dafür gibt es kleine, frische Einblicke in den bisherigen Paartherapieverlauf. Antje ist dabei ganz ruhig in ihrer Rechthaberei, weil sie tief in sich weiß, dass es so ist. Sie. Hat. Recht. Also natürlich nicht immer. Also vielleicht. Also schon. Aber liebevoll. Und dann ist da plötzlich auch Stolz. Antje ist stolz auf Jens. Jens ist stolz auf Antje. Und irgendwo zwischen Baustelle, Beziehung und Bauakte flackert kurz etwas auf, das man Hoffnung nennen könnte. Oder zumindest: therapeutisch betreute Ko-Regulation mit Schuttanteil. Gedankensprung. Es geht direkt weiter mit dem Kunstkaufverbot. Das hält ungefähr so lange, wie Kunstkaufverbote eben halten, wenn irgendwo ein toller Flohmarkt in Greifswald stattfindet. Also: nicht besonders lange. Antje und Jens haben zugeschlagen. Und sich einfach mal für ein paar Euro den nördlichen Sternenhimmel gekauft. Den ganzen nördlichen Sternenhimmel. Schnapper. Geil. Zum krönenden Abschluss gibt es dann noch ein kleines Konzert. Aber Achtung: Triggerwarnung. Es ist ohrenbetäubend. Nichts für Menschen mit empfindlichen Ohren, Hörgeräten, Tinnitus oder einer grundsätzlich friedlichen Beziehung zur Akustik. Und dann gibt es noch ein paar Outtakes. Und dann… in der nächsten Folge… dann aber wirklich… endlich… die Hiobsbotschaften. Vielleicht.

Heirloom, the new album from singer-songwriter Nathan Evans Fox, is out and an impressive manifestation of both creativity and almost historical documentation of an Appalachian artist. Fox joined Roots Music Rambler this week to talk about the new album, his journey to Nashville from the mountains of Western Carolina, fatherhood and more.  Like many artists today, Fox often shares little snippets of what he's working on via social media posts. One nugget of a song-to-be he shared a few months back drove well over one million views across his channels and the song wasn't more than a few lines. He took the queue to finish it in what became “Hillbilly Hymn (Okra & Cigarettes)” which anchors the album. It has a traditional mountain feel and was recorded in an a capella focus with what seems like family gathered round his singing on the front porch.  But the record traverses everything from fatherly advice for a child in Lots of Beginnings to a brilliant “fuck you” song for those Fox gives permission to hate in “Landlords Bill Lee Etc.” It's an amazing mix of home spun advice and statements about the polarization of today's world. He told us the record is a bit of a “seed bank” of his life for his children and the world he'll leave behind. Fox has never shied away from politics or social issues. He even told us when thinking about commercial country music, “The songs about trucks and jello shots don't come organically to me.” He told Frank and Falls a little about gourds, blueberries and seed banking, acknowledged participating in fundamentalist Christian rites like exorcisms, and told us he's leading an anti-confederate southern history book club this summer. To say we were entertained is an understatement. We think you'll be too.  Frank and Falls also share Roots Music Ramblers official member votes for this year's Americana Music Association awards and offer up music recommendations in our Pickin' the Grinnin' segment. Falls recently finished Ken Burn's documentary on Country Music. Frank shared an Instagrammer from Italy that just brings people joy in his feed named Metroman.

BMI has been treated like a health report card… but it was never designed for that job. In this episode, we unpack where Body Mass Index (BMI) actually came from, why it was created, and how it's being misapplied…especially in athletic populations like runners. If you've ever been told you're “overweight” based on BMI despite training hard, fueling well, and feeling strong… this one's for you. We'll talk about: The history of BMI and why it was never meant to assess individual health Why BMI fails to account for muscle mass, performance, and physiology How endurance athletes often fall into “higher” BMI categories despite being metabolically healthy The harm of equating thinness with health especially in running culture What actually does matter when assessing health and performance as a runner This episode is your reminder: you are not a ratio. And your healthiest running body might not fit neatly into a chart. This episode originally aired May 8, 2023.

Join Kay Mayordomo, PT, DPT as she reviews a 2026 systematic review on the association between BMI and osteoporosis risk. Did you know your BMI could be misleading when it comes to osteoporosis risk? Recent research reveals an association between body mass index (BMI) and osteoporosis. Lower BMIs are often associated with higher osteoporosis risk, especially in women. As BMI increases, the risk generally decreases, suggesting that more body mass can help maintain bone density. But...there's always a but: BMI doesn't tell the whole story. It's just a number, a ratio of height to weight. It doesn't reflect muscle mass, fat distribution, or overall health. Two people can have the same BMI, but vastly different bone health based on their lifestyle and habits. As clinicians, we need to look beyond BMI. Focus on strength training, nutrition, and healthy habits. Help patients maintain their muscle mass and overall well-being. So while BMI can indicate osteoporosis risk, remember it's just one piece of the puzzle. Let's prioritize looking at the whole picture. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41862888/ Want to stay up to date in all things Geriatrics in less than 3 minutes every other week?

The study you should read this week A 2016 meta-analysis from the CMAJ pulled together 46 prospective cohort studies — 1.2 million people, 78,000 deaths. The finding: for every 10 beats per minute higher your resting heart rate sits, your all-cause mortality risk goes up about 9 per cent. Linear from 45 bpm upward, no point where lower stops being better. Independent of blood pressure, smoking, BMI, cholesterol, diabetes, and physical activity. Resting heart rate is carrying its own signal. Plus what to do with this if you race, ride high volume, or train time-capped — and why the adaptations that lower your resting heart rate are the same adaptations that predict a longer, healthier life.

One of the Americana voices out of Chicago that you've heard Frank talk about on Roots Music Rambler drops her first full-length solo album today (Friday, May 29, 2026). So you know we're going to talk to her, right? Rachel Swain's Neon Lullaby is out and features a solid mix of the sounds that define Americana music. She brings plenty of country influence with a hint of rock and a touch of blues, has brilliantly written lyrics, a banger of a band to back her up, and even accompaniment from some other names in the Chicago Americana scene. Rachel joined Frank and Falls on Roots Music Rambler to talk to us about the album, her music and life journeys from Texas to Chicago, motherhood, and how she balances being a singer-songwriter, mom, wife, and full-time school teacher. In addition to all of that, Swain also plays in a country band with her dad. Also on this episode, Frank and Falls list the current musicians they think would be a good hang. You might be surprised who they chose. And of course, both share new Pickin' the Grinnin' choices this week. Colter Wall gets a supportive nod after his announcement he's taking a break from touring for his mental health. Colton Bowlin is a hot new singer-songwriter from Kentucky who is the other pick this week.  Watch the Episode on YouTube Download the episode and subscribe at rootsmusicrambler.com, watch the full episode on YouTube, or download wherever you get your podcasts.  Also be sure to help spread the love of the show with Roots Music Rambler's new merch, now available at rootsmusicrambler.com/store.

You have been told it is just weight. Just diet. Just effort. For millions of women with lipedema, that is not just wrong. It is decades of unnecessary suffering. In this episode of Bendy Bodies, I sit down with Kasi Grosvenor and Jesse Cochrane from the Lipedema Foundation to pull back the curtain on one of the most misdiagnosed and misunderstood conditions in women's health. Kasi spent decades fainting, being dismissed, and searching for answers before finally finding clarity at the intersection of lipedema and hereditary alpha tryptasemia. Her story is not unusual. It is the norm for this patient population. Jesse brings the science. Lipedema is not obesity. It is not a lifestyle problem. It is a chronic medical condition involving disproportionate, painful, fibrotic adipose tissue that resists caloric restriction and exercise by design. Emerging research points to extracellular matrix dysfunction as a potential shared biological thread connecting lipedema to Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS), hypermobility, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). The overlap is not coincidental. It may be biological. We cover what clinicians and patients both need to understand: Why the absence of biomarkers has made diagnosis so difficult, and what the evolving definition of the disease actually means for patients seeking answers. Why lipedema tissue behaves differently from typical fat, and why standard weight loss advice not only fails but can cause harm. What conservative management actually looks like, including medical compression, pneumatic compression pumps, anti-inflammatory nutrition, and specialized manual therapies. The truth about lipedema removal surgery. This is not cosmetic liposuction. It is a medical intervention to remove diseased tissue, and its outcomes depend heavily on what comes before and after the procedure. If you have been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told to try harder, this episode is for you. Takeaways: Lipedema is not obesity. The tissue is structurally and biologically different, and it does not respond to diet and exercise the way standard fat tissue does. Pain and tenderness in the affected tissue is a hallmark feature, not a coincidence. If you have EDS, HSD, POTS, or MCAS, lipedema may be part of your picture. The biological overlap is real and increasingly supported by research. A normal BMI does not rule out lipedema. Diagnosis is clinical, not based on weight. Lipedema removal surgery is a medical procedure. Calling it cosmetic liposuction misrepresents both the tissue and the intent. The absence of biomarkers does not mean the condition is not real. It means the research has not caught up yet.

In this episode, Reilly, Lilly, and Jenna tackle the most common and often most anxiety inducing question in the period recovery space: Do you actually have to gain weight to get your period back? As dietitians, we hear this question daily from athletes who are hoping they can recover their hormones without changing their body composition. We dive into the physiological reality of weight restoration and why your body's internal safety signals are often tied to specific energy stores.The conversation covers why looking like you are at a ‘normal' weight doesn't always mean you are at the weight your specific body needs to ovulate. We answer listener questions regarding the fear of uncontrollable weight gain, and whether there is ever a scenario where a period returns without the scale moving.Our goal for this episode is to provide a compassionate but evidence based reality check on the role of body mass in functional hypothalamic amenorrhea recovery. We discuss the importance of moving away from arbitrary BMI standards and instead focusing on biofeedback markers that indicate true hormonal health. Whether you are currently in the thick of the weight restoration process or you are hesitant to start because of the fear of body changes, this episode will help you understand what to expect from weight restoration during the period recovery journey.The Eat More Carbs Podcast is the go-to podcast for the GIRLIES who want to fuel their body properly with easy, fun, and simple nutrition! Hosted by Reilly Beatty and Jenna Fisher, two registered dietitians who bring you weekly episodes to help you meet your goals while breaking free of diet culture. You can follow Reilly, Jenna and Lilly on Instagram @reilly.beatty.nutrition @jenna.fisher.nutrition @lillyreimer.nutritionStruggle with figuring out what advice you should be following to achieve your goal of period recovery?

I decennier har det kopplats till sjukdom, bristande disciplin och ohälsa samtidigt som ideal, dieter och träningskulturer lärt oss att så lite fett som möjligt är det som gäller. Frågan är om rädslan, ja skräcken, är befogad. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Vi lever i en tid där kroppen ständigt mäts, vägs och analyseras. Fettprocent, midjemått och BMI har blivit sätt att förstå oss själva, trots att många av måtten är trubbiga och omdebatterade. Samtidigt vet forskningen idag betydligt mer om kroppsfettets komplexa roll i kroppen än när många av idealen och råden formades en gång i tiden.Den här veckan undersöker vi fettets rykte och funktion. Vi pratar om varför kroppen så envist vill behålla det, om skillnaden mellan vitt och brunt fett och hur fettcellerna fungerar och är betydligt viktigare för vår hälsa än vi vant oss vid att tänka. Vi följer också fettets historia från antiken via flygvärdinnedieter och det fettsnåla 80-talet till dagens fokus på kroppsmätningar och nya bantningstrender.Medverkande: Karin Stenkula, universitetslektor och forskare vid Institutionen för experimentell vetenskap på Lunds universitet, näringsfysiologen Kristina Andersson, Peter Arnér, professor och forskare vid Institutionen för medicin, Karolinska institutet, Magnus Västerbro, historiejournalist och författare, Anatoli Grigorenko, idrottsforskare, och Oskar Sandgren.Programledare: Ulrika Hjalmarson NeidemanProducent: Linnéa WanneforsReporter: Caroline Mathiasen

A heart attack can feel like lightning out of a clear sky, but the body usually leaves a long trail of clues. We're talking about the slow, quiet build of cardiovascular disease and why so many people are shocked when something finally happens even though the risk factors have been stacking for years in blood pressure readings, cholesterol numbers, blood sugar trends, sleep quality, stress load, and daily movement.We dig into two of the most important global studies in heart disease prevention and stroke prevention: Interheart and Interstroke. Across dozens of countries, cultures, and health systems, the same patterns keep showing up smoking, hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, poor diet, physical inactivity, abdominal obesity, and chronic stress. One detail that changes how you think about your own health is the role of visceral fat: belly fat can be a stronger predictor than BMI, meaning “looking thin” doesn't always equal being metabolically healthy. And when it comes to stroke risk, we highlight the standout driver that too many people ignore: high blood pressure and the long-term damage it does to blood vessels in the brain.We also tackle the risk perception gap, why we worry about small, trendy threats while skipping the basics that move risk the most. Then we walk through how risk calculators like the Framingham Risk Score can help you translate lab results into real-world stakes, and how projecting yourself 10 years into the future can turn a number into motivation.If you want a clear, evidence-based roadmap for lowering cardiovascular risk with lifestyle medicine, hit play.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Senobi breathing, a Japanese breathing technique that headlines are claiming can help you lose weight. The buzz is based on a 2010 study from Japan that found some pretty compelling hormonal and body-composition changes in participants who practiced this simple one-minute exercise three times a day. Could a few deep breaths in a specific posture really shift your metabolism, activate your nervous system, and burn body fat? Jenn digs into the actual study, breaks down what Senobi breathing is, why it might work, and what the science does and does not actually tell us. She sees the intrigue, but does she buy it?

Jeremy Marshall, the singer-songwriter who founded and fronts the Alt-Country band Hollerhead, says he doesn't know what to call the band's genre of music. “We just play our music,” he told us when he joined Roots Music Rambler this week. The Western Kentucky-based band mixes a steady diet of southern rock with country, blues and even bluegrass influences, or Americana as we've come to say about a blending of genres. Marshall and his wife/vocalist/songwriter/manager/operations (i.e. – the person in charge) Della joined Frank and Falls to talk about the group's existing catalog, new singles and a forthcoming second studio album. Jeremy told us the story behind the band and the band's name, which at first glance aroused curiosity in Falls, our Eastern Kentuckian on staff. “Ain't no heads of no hollers in Western Kentucky?!” he said. Turns out, that's not why the band has the name. The Marshalls explained where the name came from, which is a far better story than Falls assumed.  Frank and Falls also dug into an interesting conversation on the show when Falls asked what artists Frank refuses to listen to or support because of non-musical reasons. The discussion and debate explored why controversial acts can be a holistic turn-off, but should also be given room for forgiveness. And, of course, hot off their visit to the Crossroads Acoustic Fest in Seymour, Ind., our co-hosts share new Pickin' the Grinnin' choices this week. Logan Mac and Meels get a nod from RMR.

Most people with EDS or HSD have been told to "exercise more," "eat better," and "sleep on a schedule," usually by someone who has never tried to do any of those things in a hypermobile, pain-flaring, dysautonomic body. This episode is different. Dr. Linda Bluestein and Dr. Dacre Knight break down the foundational layer of the MENS PMMS treatment algorithm, a structured framework built specifically for the complexity of Ehlers-Danlos syndromes and hypermobility spectrum disorders. MENS stands for Movement, Education, Nutrition, and Sleep. This conversation goes far beyond surface-level advice to explain what each category actually means when your connective tissue, nervous system, and autonomic function are all working against you at once. You will learn why standard physical therapy can set EDS patients back and what to look for in a provider who actually understands joint protection. You will understand central sensitization at a biological level, not just as a buzzword, and why reframing pain as a nervous system state rather than a structural inevitability changes everything. You will hear why nutrition conversations for the EDS population need to start with GI dysfunction and malabsorption, not calories and BMI. And you will finally get a clear explanation of why pain and poor sleep feed each other in a vicious cycle, and what interrupts it. Whether you are a patient who has heard "your labs are normal" one too many times, or a clinician building a practice that actually serves this community, this episode gives you a concrete starting point. The body you are working with is not broken. It just needs a different playbook. Takeaways: Why most PT makes EDS worse before it makes it better, and the "slow and low" approach that actually builds joint stability without triggering a flare. The neuroscience of "no plastic" pain. Central sensitization is not in your head. Understanding how the nervous system learns to amplify pain is the first step toward teaching it something different. Nutrition beyond BMI. In EDS and HSD, postprandial distress, malabsorption, and GI dysmotility are often the bigger drivers of health outcomes than anything showing up on a standard nutrition screening. The pain-insomnia trap. Pain activates your sympathetic nervous system. A revved-up sympathetic nervous system blocks restorative sleep. Poor sleep amplifies pain sensitivity. Here is how to break the cycle. Motion is lotion, done right. Low-impact, recumbent movement is not a consolation prize. It is one of the most effective tools for stabilizing autonomic function in this population. Go AquaTru.com now for 20% off (your purifier) using promo code BENDY.

Guest: Rebecca BlakeShow Notes:Registered dietitian Rebecca Blake unpacks what diet culture really is, how it quietly shapes the way we see food and our bodies, and why weight and BMI don't define health. This conversation explores how social media and cultural ideals can push us toward restriction and body criticism without us realizing it.You'll learn how to spot subtle red flags in nutrition content, rebuild trust with your hunger and fullness cues, and begin redefining health beyond the number on the scale. This episode offers a more compassionate, realistic path toward healing your relationship with food and your body.Guest Bio:Rebecca is a registered dietitian and clinical nutrition subject matter expert, having worked across traditional healthcare spaces, into health technology, and most recently as a full-time solo practitioner focusing on preventive health, hormonal health, and disordered eating.Quote:“So here's what I'll say about diet culture. We are all privy to it, influenced by it and in many ways victimized by it every single day, knowingly and unknowingly and mostly unknowingly.”Question of the Day:What is one belief about food or your body that you started to unlearn, and how has it changed the way you approach eating or self-care?On This Episode You Will Learn:What diet culture really is and the subtle ways it shapes how we think about food, body image, and health every day.How social media, wellness trends, and “healthy eating” content can reinforce harmful food rules and unrealistic body standards.Why health is about more than BMI or the number on the scale, and what “Health at Every Size” actually means.How to rebuild trust with your body by reconnecting with hunger and fullness cues instead of restrictive dieting rules.Practical mindset shifts to create a healthier, more compassionate relationship with food, self-care, and body image.Connect with Yumlish!Yumlish Website: YumlishYumlish on Instagram: @yumlish_Yumlish on Facebook: YumlishYumlish on Twitter: @yumlish_Yumlish on LinkedIn: YumlishConnect with Rebecca Blake!Website URL: wwwrebeccablakenutrition.comInstagram URL: https://www.instagram.com/rebeccablakenutrition/Facebook URL: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563918696083LinkedIn URL: Rebecca Blake, MS RD CDN | LinkedIn

Nutrition beyond BMI. In EDS and HSD, postprandial distress, malabsorption, and GI dysmotility are often the bigger drivers of health outcomes than anything showing up on a standard nutrition screening. The pain-insomnia trap. Pain activates your sympathetic nervous system. A revved-up sympathetic nervous system blocks restorative sleep. Poor sleep amplifies pain sensitivity. Here is how to break the cycle. Motion is lotion, done right. Low-impact, recumbent movement is not a consolation prize. It is one of the most effective tools for stabilizing autonomic function in this population. Find the episode transcript here. Go AquaTru.com now for 20% off (your purifier) using promo code BENDY.

The Apostle Paul, in 1st Thessalonians Chapter 1, provides nine essential marks that define a healthy church. He emphasizes that a truly healthy church is not perfect, but rather one that is actively being perfected through the work of God. These marks serve as a vital scorecard for believers to assess both their individual spiritual growth and the collective vitality of their community.This message explores how these ancient principles of faith, love, and hope, coupled with a commitment to repentance and a joyful endurance through suffering, shape a vibrant and impactful community.

If you are trying to get into the best shape this summer and lose body fat to look leaner, you've probably wondered how you should actually measure your progress. If so, you're not alone! In today's episode, I'm breaking down the two most common measurements women ask me about during a fat loss journey: BMI (Body Mass Index) and body fat percentage — and discussing which one is more helpful if you're trying to track real progress. By the end of this episode, you'll understand the difference between BMI and body fat percentage, what each one actually measures, and why neither number tells the full story on its own. I'm also diving into body recomposition, muscle mass, and the better ways to track fat loss progress so you can stop obsessing over a single number and start focusing on what's actually helping you get leaner, stronger, and more confident.

Could GLP-1 medications be the missing piece in treating inflammatory skin disease? In this episode of Science is Skin, Dr. Ted Lain sits down with Dr. Lindsey Bordone — former Columbia University associate professor of dermatology, now in private practice at Bordone Dermatology in Scottsdale, Arizona — for a deep dive into metabolic disease and the skin. Dr. Bordone was among the first dermatologists to prescribe GLP-1 agonists for her patients, and in this conversation she explains exactly why. From the link between hyperinsulinemia and chronic inflammation to the visible skin signs of insulin resistance — skin tags, acanthosis nigricans, forearm hair loss — she makes the case that dermatologists are uniquely positioned to catch metabolic disease before any other specialty. Dr. Bordone walks through how she uses tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound), semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy), and the emerging triple-G drug retatrutide, including her lab protocols, dosing philosophy, how to manage GI side effects, and the surprising interaction between GLP-1s and estrogen therapy. In this episode: Why high BMI reduces biologic efficacy in psoriasis patients How to check fasting insulin (HOMA-IR) and why most physicians aren't doing it Skin signs of insulin resistance: skin tags, forearm hair loss, and neck skin thickening Tirzepatide vs. semaglutide vs. retatrutide — how to choose and when Retatrutide's remarkable 93% fatty liver clearance rate in clinical trials The truth about sarcopenia and muscle loss on GLP-1 medications Dosing protocols, side effect management, and when NOT to escalate quickly Protein intake recommendations during active weight loss Estrogen and GLP-1 synergy — what dermatologists need to know Lab work to run before and during GLP-1 therapy How to build an insurance case for continued medication coverage Resources mentioned: HOMA-IR fasting insulin/glucose testing AAD resources on metabolic dermatology Bordone Dermatology — Scottsdale, Arizona Enjoyed this episode?
