On this episode of Good Day Health, host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) dive into this week's top health stories and answer listener questions with expert insights. First up: AI in medicine. Dr. Ken shares how he prefers to think of artificial intelligence as “Assisted Intelligence,” explaining how new technologies are enhancing diagnostics and patient care. One example? Advanced AI models can now analyze heart MRIs and medical records to detect subtle scar patterns that predict sudden cardiac death — a game-changer in preventive cardiology. Speaking of prevention, Dr. Ken emphasizes a growing “fourth pillar” in the fight against heart disease: vaccinations for common infections, joining the ranks of diet, exercise, and medication. Then, Doug shares a wild personal story: after days of ear pain and a misdiagnosis of infection, the true culprit was revealed — a ladybug stuck in his ear. This leads into a broader discussion on ear health and new research showing that wearing hearing aids may actually improve your social life. Also on the brain: New research finds that the human hippocampus — the brain's memory center — continues generating new neurons even in old age, offering new hope for cognitive longevity. Listener questions include:Is Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) offering more than weight loss benefits, such as protecting limbs in patients with Type 2 diabetes?What's up with the new COVID-19 variant XFG (“Stratus”) and its unusual symptom — a raspy voice?Join Doug and Dr. Ken for a fast-paced, informative hour packed with useful health tips, surprising discoveries, and practical advice for everyday wellness.Webstie: GoodDayHealthShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Episode 2669 - BEST OF: Vinnie Tortorich welcomes Dr. Mary Newport back to the show, and they discuss brain health and coconut oil, ketones, and her upcoming book. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/07/brain-health-coconut-oil-dr-mary-newport-episode-2669 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - BRAIN HEALTH AND COCONUT OIL Vinnie welcomes Dr. Mary Newport back to the show, and they start the show by discussing Mary's husband's early-onset dementia. (1:20) At age 56, her husband was experiencing a rapid decline in brain health. After some challenges, he became eligible for a clinical trial for Alzheimer's treatment. (9:00) She had heard about the benefits of ketones and coconut oil and started experimenting. (12:15) It's amazing the improvements they saw in a short amount of time! Vinnie mentions his battle with leukemia and how staying in ketosis has kept him in remission. (16:40) Mary mentions that people with epilepsy who have been on a ketogenic diet will have recurrence of seizures after having just a piece of cake; consequently, this is called "Birthday Syndrome". (20:40) Vinnie asks Mary her opinion on exogenous ketone esters and salts. (25:00) They discuss further the benefits of coconut oil, and Mary also started using it and feels like her mental endurance has improved. (28:40) Mary mentions that coconut oil got a bad rap because companies that created hydrogenated oils were competing with it and creating a negative campaign against it. (38:30) They also discuss how the dietary guidelines still used today are based on incorrect information from the 1950s. (41:00) Saturated fats are not the problem. They chat about cholesterol, plaque, and inflammation. CLEARLY KETO They turn the conversation to Mary's upcoming book: "". Mary lists some of the topics covered in her book, from the problem of too much sugar, ketones, fasting, your brain on coconut oil, and much more. Vinnie and Mary discuss various medications, how some do (and don't) function, and how some only "keep you perfectly sick". (55:00) Vinnie talks about how he knows of cases where people were on 3 medications for one issue, but that issue could be resolved just by proper eating. Mary talks about how even she, at one time, was unaware of how the current low-fat dietary guidelines were bad; consequently, she has changed her eating habits and has seen many benefits. It is possible to overcome insulin resistance, which can also include virgin coconut oil. (1:04:20) Insulin resistance affects brain functions and other functions in the body. She talks about some things she has learned about brain plaque and how it behaves. (1:17:00) Mary mentions other topics addressed in the book and lets us know an update about her husband. They talk a little more about coconut oil, and how it's difficult to get people to accept that it is as good! Go to for more suggestions and information.

“What we decide to put in our mouth each day, what time we decide to go to sleep, who we choose to engage with, how much movement we get, how we manage our stressors, those choices that we make each day that seem really simple, those have the biggest impact on our brain health as we age." - Dr. Heather Sandison When my son Grant suffered his traumatic brain injury, I learned firsthand how devastating cognitive decline can be for an entire family. That's why I was so excited to sit down with Dr. Heather Sandison, a pioneering naturopathic doctor who's literally rewriting the story around Alzheimer's and dementia. While most memory care centers are one-way doors, Heather runs what she calls a "memory recovery program" where the goal is for people to return home—and they're doing it! Through her groundbreaking work applying Dr. Dale Bredesen's protocols, she's seeing 74% of her patients with cognitive impairment actually improve. Her approach to preventing Alzheimer's in midlife women focuses on hope, action, and evidence-based strategies that work. Whether you're carrying APOE4 genes, worried about your family history, or simply want to protect your brain as you age, this conversation is packed with hope and actionable strategies for preventing Alzheimer's in midlife women. From the power of ketogenic nutrition and sleep optimization to addressing hidden infections and hormonal signaling, Heather breaks down the six pillars of brain health that every woman over 40 needs to understand. This isn't about accepting decline—it's about taking control of your cognitive destiny. The six key components of brain health and how to optimize each one for preventing alzheimer's in midlife women Why APOE genetic testing is crucial for women over 40 and how to act on your results How sleep apnea (even in thin women who don't snore) devastates brain health and simple at-home testing options The specific ketogenic approach that helps patients remember their grandchildren's names within 72 hours Hidden infections in your mouth and body that trigger brain inflammation and cognitive decline Why caregivers have 2-6 times higher risk of developing Alzheimer's and how to protect yourself The surprising connection between hormones, exercise, and building new brain connections after menopause Simple lifestyle interventions that work better than any pharmaceutical for preventing cognitive decline Love the Podcast?

You just re-homeostasis.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “Is there any evidence showing that mushrooms can slow down cognitive decline?” —Jason Wrobel “Reishi mushroom is the oldest studied mushroom and used for so many different things, like detoxing to inflammation, diabetes, cognitive benefits, nerve healing, digestion health. There's so many different medicinal aspects to different mushrooms and they do have overlapping benefits.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “I have such a deep love as a chef for using mushrooms in recipes for their medicinal benefits. The texture. The flavor.” —Jason Wrobel “All mushrooms help lower inflammation. As little as a quarter cup a week actually can lower inflammation markers. So it just naturally lowers blood pressure.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “Why would someone want to take mushrooms on a daily basis? Whether or not they're battling disease or some disorder. Are you a proponent for someone to be taking mushrooms medicinally as a supplement each day?” —Jason Wrobel “It really depends on…” —Kaitlyn Kuehn This week's guest, Kaitlyn Kuehn, also known as KK, is a plant biologist and mycology enthusiast on a mission to decode the secret life of plants and fungi.

If you've been curious about GLP-1s but assumed they're only for people with diabetes or major weight to lose—this episode will absolutely shift your perspective.

For a more than a century, the Food and Drug Administration has worked to protect public health. In his research, Harvard University physician-researcher Jerry Avorn has examined how the FDA's once-rigorous gold standard approval process has been affected by a powerful shortcut known as the Accelerated Approval Program—originally designed for desperate AIDS and cancer patients. He says that change in the 1990s has allowed more than half of all new drugs onto the market before drug companies have proven they actually help people.In his new book Rethinking Medications: Truth, Power and the Drugs We Take, Avorn cites numerous examples: from a cold medicine that doesn't de-congest to billion-dollar cancer treatments that only shrink lab results to the controversial Alzheimer's drug Aduhelm—approved despite no clear cognitive benefits. In this episode, Avorn explores whether some prescriptions in your medicine cabinet are safe, effective and worth the money.
