A study in the British Journal of Psychiatry supports what some mothers' groups have known for a while - group singing helps with postnatal depression. 

Pendant des années, le message a semblé simple : pour rester bien hydraté, il faut boire beaucoup d'eau. Pourtant, une vaste étude publiée dans le British Journal of Nutrition vient nuancer cette idée reçue. Menée sur près de 200 000 personnes dans plusieurs pays, cette recherche révèle que l'eau n'est pas le seul acteur de l'hydratation optimale. Thé, café et même certaines boissons lactées ou légèrement sucrées participeraient, eux aussi, à maintenir un bon équilibre hydrique et métabolique.L'étude s'est intéressée non seulement à la quantité de liquide absorbée, mais aussi à la manière dont le corps la retient. Car une hydratation efficace ne dépend pas uniquement du volume bu, mais de la capacité de l'organisme à conserver l'eau dans ses tissus. Or, le café et le thé, longtemps accusés d'être déshydratants à cause de leur caféine, se révèlent en réalité de bons contributeurs à l'équilibre hydrique, lorsqu'ils sont consommés avec modération. Les chercheurs ont montré qu'une à trois tasses par jour n'entraînent pas de perte d'eau significative, et peuvent même favoriser la vigilance, la concentration et la santé cardiovasculaire.Le secret réside dans la diversité des apports. L'eau reste indispensable, bien sûr : elle représente la base de l'hydratation. Mais les boissons contenant des minéraux, des antioxydants et un peu d'énergie (comme le lait, les infusions, ou le café léger) enrichissent ce bilan. Le lait, par exemple, grâce à sa teneur en sodium, potassium et protéines, offre un excellent pouvoir de réhydratation, supérieur à celui de l'eau seule après un effort. De même, les tisanes et thés verts, riches en polyphénols, aident à lutter contre l'oxydation cellulaire tout en hydratant efficacement.Les chercheurs rappellent aussi que l'alimentation joue un rôle crucial : les fruits et légumes, gorgés d'eau et d'électrolytes, représentent jusqu'à 20 % de nos apports hydriques quotidiens. Ainsi, une soupe, un yaourt ou une orange participent autant à l'hydratation qu'un grand verre d'eau.En conclusion, bien s'hydrater ne consiste pas à boire uniquement de l'eau à longueur de journée, mais à adopter une approche globale : varier les boissons, écouter sa soif et intégrer des aliments riches en eau. Le corps a besoin d'équilibre, pas d'excès. Et cette étude nous rappelle que la santé ne se joue pas seulement dans la quantité d'eau bue, mais dans l'harmonie subtile entre diversité, modération et plaisir. Hébergé par Acast.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 10-23-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with a passionate plea about E-bike safety after observing riders ignoring stop signs and wearing inadequate helmets in Santa Cruz. She explains the physics of collisions, noting that force equals mass times acceleration, and a car hitting an E-bike rider at 20 mph delivers impact equivalent to falling from a two-story building. She emphasizes that 97% of bike fatalities in New York involved helmetless riders, and brain injuries result from the brain striking the skull twice during impact - once on the impact side and again on the opposite side during deceleration. She urges drivers to honk at helmetless riders and calls for stricter helmet law enforcement. An emailer asks about hydroxyapatite in toothpaste. Dr. Dawn traces its origins to NASA research in the 1960s by Dr. Bernard Rubin studying crystal growth for preventing bone and tooth mineral loss in astronauts. Japanese company Sangi acquired the patent and created the first hydroxyapatite toothpaste by 1980, receiving official anti-cavity recognition in 1993. Studies show it matches fluoride's cavity prevention effectiveness by filling microscopic cracks where bacteria take root. It also relieves temperature sensitivity by sealing micro-fractures in enamel that expose the dentin layer, making it especially helpful for people who clench their jaws. Researchers from UC Berkeley and the Allen Institute used electrodes and lasers to study how mouse brains process optical illusions like the Kanizsa triangle. They discovered specialized IC encoder neurons in the visual cortex that fill in missing information, creating complete shapes from partial cues. When these pattern-completing circuits activate inappropriately, they may trigger hallucinations in conditions like schizophrenia. Dr. Dawn explains that illusions occur when the brain perceives something different from actual visual input, while hallucinations create perceptions with no external stimulus. She discusses frontotemporal dementia where visual hallucinations result from protein deposits in the occipital cortex, and notes that a 2021 British Journal of Psychiatry study found hallucination rates varying from 7% in young people to 3% in those over 70. An emailer describes unbearable chronic lumbar pain with degenerative disc disease shown on MRI. Dr. Dawn emphasizes that MRI findings don't necessarily correlate with pain levels, citing shopping mall studies showing equal degenerative changes in people with and without back pain. She stresses checking for sciatica symptoms including leg pain below the knee, sensory differences between sides, calf size asymmetry, and ability to walk on tiptoes and heels. Without these red flags, the degenerative disease likely isn't causing the pain. She warns against unnecessary surgery citing frequent "failed back" syndrome when surgery for a disk image doesn't "fix" the pain. She recommends water jogging with a ski vest, McKenzie exercises, abdominal strengthening, ergonomics, removing wallets from back pockets, and alternating heat and ice therapy. She discusses mindfulness meditation and cognitive behavioral therapy for pain management. A caller references Daniel Levitin's book "Your Brain on Music," discussing research using functional MRIs showing distinct brain activation patterns in musicians versus non-musicians due to integrated auditory, visual, and kinesthetic training. Dr. Dawn describes how infant brains develop from three to six layers with increasingly complex synaptic connections resembling circuit boards. She highlights a blindfold study where college students' visual cortices began responding to sound within two weeks as the auditory cortex expanded. She shares her husband's remarkable recovery demonstrating adult brain plasticity through intensive rehabilitation. Learning new musical instruments helps dementia patients by activating multiple brain regions simultaneously and improving standard cognitive test performance. A caller describes an eight-day chest cold with thick white phlegm. Dr. Dawn recommends guaifenesin as a mucus-thinning expectorant to prevent bacterial growth in respiratory secretions that serve as "bacteria chow." She emphasizes the importance of current flu, COVID, and RSV vaccinations. Secondary bacterial infections develop when bacteria colonize viral-induced mucus in the lungs and invade tissues. She advises aggressive hydration and chicken soup, which research shows helps clear mucus. Another caller provides additional information about Daniel Levitin as a musicologist, neurologist, and musician who runs the Music Perception, Cognition and Expertise laboratory at McGill University.

Social workers frequently come into contact with dogs in their practice. Yet until now, it hasn't featured in social work research, education, training and guidance.A recent study published in the British Journal of Social Work entitled ‘We're not professionals when it comes to dogs:' Social work encounters with dogs and their implications for education and practice sets out to address this omission. The research examines the risks and complexities that social workers might be faced with when encountering dogs, making a compelling case for greater attention on this subject area.In this episode, Jonny Adamson is joined by the author of the research, Professor Denise Turner, social worker Sarah Long, who participated in the study and experienced aggressive dog behaviour while on a visit, and Certified Animal Behaviourist, Andrew Hale who specialises in complex animal behaviour cases.They discuss how professionals can assess and minimise risk to themselves and others when encountering dogs, improvements and adjustments that employers could make to working practices, training and support needs for the profession, and the cultural, religious and health considerations which are being overlooked.Our thanks to James Ede at BeHeard for producing the episode.

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. Quick-Glance Summary I walk you through an MIT experiment where 54 EEG-capped volunteers wrote essays three ways: pure brainpower, classic search, and ChatGPT assistance. Brain-only writers lit up the most neurons and produced the freshest prose; the ChatGPT crowd churned out near-identical essays, remembered little, and racked up what the researchers dub cognitive debt : the interest you pay later for outsourcing thought today. A bonus “switch” round yanked AI away from the LLM devotees (cue face-plant) and finally let the brain-first team play with the toy (they coped fine), proving skills first, tools second. I spiced the tale with calculator nostalgia, a Belgian med-exam cheating fiasco, and Professor Felienne's forklift-in-the-gym metaphor to land one mantra: *scaffolds beat shortcuts*. We peeked at tech “enshittification” once investors demand returns, whispered “open-source” as the escape hatch, and I dared you to try a two-day test—outline solo, draft with AI, revise solo, then check what you still remember. Net takeaway: keep AI on a leash; let thinking drive, tools navigate . If you think I'm full of digital hot air, record your own rebuttal and prove it. Resources MIT study MIT Media Lab. (2025).

Clark and Matt decided to share a special episode from our sister cast, YOU OUGHTA KNOW: THE MOTIVATION SERIES. In this special episode, Matt is joined by the co-developer of Self-Determination Theory (SDT), Richard M. Ryan, to talk about all things motivation. Think of it as a primer on SDT. We hit the basics… What is motivation? What is SDT?‎ ‎What are the origins of SDT?‎ ‎The different types of motivation.‎ ‎Rewards and their impact on one's motivation.‎ ‎Of course, the famous three basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence, and relatedness).‎ ‎We discuss strategies one may take to either create environments to meet others' needs or to do it for oneself.‎ ‎What is well-being? How is well-being related to motivation?‎ ‎Is SDT universal? Is it culturally descriptive in all cases?‎ ‎And more! During our discussion on mindfulness, Rich refers to a recently published meta-analysis.  The reference is: Donald, James N., Helena Nguyen, James H.

Standing on stage with nothing but a microphone, Sara Pascoe knows instantly if she's succeeded or failed. Comedy doesn't let you hide, if the joke doesn't land, the silence tells you.But what makes Sara remarkable isn't just her success as a writer, actor, and stand-up. It's the habit she's built to handle failure and keep showing up: Unconditional Positive Regard. The belief that your worth isn't defined by a single mistake, a bad night, or a difficult moment.In this episode, I share what I learned from Sara about how self-compassion fuels resilience. She shows us why the way we talk to ourselves matters more than the outcome, and how reframing failure can turn doubt into progress.Together, we explore:Why comedians face some of the toughest performance pressureHow to separate who you are from what you doThe psychology of Unconditional Positive RegardHow self-compassion creates lasting confidenceIf you've ever been too hard on yourself after falling short, this episode is a reminder that high performance isn't about being flawless. It's about having the courage to try again, and the kindness to believe in yourself when you do.Here is more information on the studies referenced: The necessary and sufficient conditions of therapeutic personality change.

The prescription of pain medication among Irish patients, including highly addictive opioids, is rapidly rising, according to new research.The use of opioids has increased by 25 per cent in Ireland, while the prescription of paracetamol rose 50 per cent between 2014-2022, according to a study published last week in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology.The prescription of even stronger medication, like codeine and opioids including tapentadol and oxycodone, is rising even higher.This sharp increase in pain medication prescriptions by doctors in Ireland contrasts starkly with the approach in England, where the NHS is cracking down on the overuse of these potentially-addictive medicines.Why are so many doctors prescribing this heavy-dose medication?And is this growing reliance on opioids at risk of become an addiction crisis for patients seeking pain relief?Today, on In The News, is Ireland heading towards an opioid addiction crisis?Royal College of Surgeons Ireland (RCSI) associate professor Frank Moriarty, who co-authored the study into how pain is treated in Ireland, discusses the significant rise in opioid prescriptions.Presented by Sorcha Pollak.

In this “Master Instructor Roundtable,” co-hosts, and NASM Master Instructors, Wendy Batts, and Marty Miller, take a deep dive into some of the most persistent myths in strength training. Whether you're a fitness newbie, a seasoned trainer, or just fascinated by health science, this lively discussion will help clear up common misconceptions that still linger in gyms everywhere. The two tackle myths like the idea that lifting heavy weights automatically leads to bulkiness, especially for women, and whether kids and seniors should steer clear of strength training. They dispel the old “high reps for toning, low reps for bulk” rule, explain why “muscle confusion” isn't the magic bullet it's made out to be, and set the record straight on spot fat reduction and the safety of squats for your knees. Drawing on up-to-date research, years of professional experience, and practical examples (from training young athletes to keeping grandparents strong and independent), the hosts break down how strength training impacts everyone—at every age. They cover how adaptations really work, the crucial role nutrition plays in muscle growth, and why proper technique and progression always trump trendy workout fads. With plenty of humor, relatable anecdotes, and actionable advice, Wendy and Marty equip both trainers and clients with the facts they need to make smarter choices in and out of the gym. If you want to gain confidence in your training—or help others do the same—don't miss this myth-busting episode that promises to educate and empower.

Kristin is winding down her ADHD & addiction series for now with a discussion about the comorbidity rates of substance use disorder (SUD) for ADHDers. She's covering the potential for stimulant misuse, why treating the ADHD first is crucial for SUD recovery, and how to approach treatment with a focus on harm reduction.   Plus, Kristin has a new enemy (it's always nice to have something to hate), Grace is a responsible planner for once (kinda), and we introduce a BOD that just may be the new autistic superhero of a generation.    References: SAMHSA Advisory Challenges of Treating ADHD with Comorbid Substance Use Disorder: Considerations for the Clinician Stimulant treatment for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and risk of developing substance use disorder | The British Journal of Psychiatry | Cambridge Core Drug Scheduling The Complicated Relationship Between Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Substance Use Disorders - PMC Randomized Controlled Trial of Osmotic-Release Methylphenidate with CBT in Adolescents with ADHD and Substance Use Disorders - PMC Substance Abuse Treatment with Comorbid ADHD: A Clinician's Guide 14 Kakapo Facts - Fact Animal KAKAPO Adult male 'chinging' call to attract females

In this episode, Clark and Matt return to the topic of Leadership Development. Is traditional leadership development a worthy endeavor for most organizations? Well, the research, or lack thereof, indicates that at best, it is questionable, and at worst, it may actually undermine or act at cross purposes to what the company strives to attain.  Of course, in the end, they propose what they think might work more effectively. It's about context! Matt and Clark discuss four inherent issues with traditional leadership development, based on Matt's booklet on the topic, available for free download here: https://members.ldaccelerator.com/c/what-is-lda-press/leadership-development-the-four-issues-that-undermine-traditional-leadership-development-programs-3f451f4a-a52a-4ebe-9561-3d4e32cc23ba The Lacerenza, et. al. meta-analysis is below in the references.  Matt makes the case for a definition problem. In other words, we are rarely clear or consistent in our use of the word leadership. Because of this lack of agreement on what the term means, and more importantly, what knowledge, skills, abilities, and values embody effective leadership, it is very difficult to design effective learning.  They highlight the misalignment between what gets espoused by the "experts," the stakeholders in the organization, and the learning team, with how leadership actually shows up behaviorally in practice. Also, there is a tendency for all parties to idealize the factors that make up leadership and ignore, or sweep under the rug, some of the more nefarious behaviors that support leader outcomes.  Next, there is validity and reliability. When the learning team decides what to teach, is the model, the process, or the tools supported by research and experience? Do they work consistently over time? Matt uses Servant Leadership as an example. Of course, given the next problem of context, we know they are not consistent. But we make matters worse when we also use models unsupported by evidence and research… or, we use models that work once or twice in practice… but not in all circumstances. Finally, Clark and Matt explore the problem of the said context. Shifting situations, people, crises, opportunities, technology, and more make the environment in which one leads always unique and difficult to predict. What works today tends not to work tomorrow. What didn't work yesterday may work today.  Matt raises the Keith Grint model of leadership based on wicked, tame, and critical problems. Throughout the discussion, they reference lots of leadership and leadership development researchers and thought leaders (references below). They mention Jeffrey Pfeffer, Barbara Kellerman, Ronald Riggio, John Kotter, Warren Bennis, Bert Nanus, and David Grad.  Clark mentions the Cynefin framework by Dave Snowden as an alternative to the Grint framework. You can learn about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynefin_framework  At one point, Matt refers to the hypocrisy of many corporate CEOs about Black Lives Matter. A good article on this was written by the BBC way back in 2020. https://www.bbc.com/worklife/article/20200612-black-lives-matter-do-companies-really-support-the-cause  Clark refers to The Gervais Principle by Venkatesh Rao when the two talk about psychopathy, or sociopathy, in leadership. Clark also calls back to a Matt favorite, Brian Klaas' Corruptible.  REFERENCES: Burns, J. M. (1978). Leadership (1st ed.). New York: Harper & Row. Burns, J. M. (2003).

In this episode, we break down one of the most misunderstood parts of training, lifting heavy. Whether you're a runner, a beginner, or someone looking to build strength safely, you'll learn how to start lifting with proper form, build confidence under the bar, and use science-backed strategies like progressive overload and optimal rest.We'll cover everything from movement mastery to how many days a week you actually need to train, and why heavy lifting isn't just safe, but essential for long-term performance, injury prevention, and metabolic health.To close, we shift into a 10-minute mini mindset reset on creating a training routine you'll actually stick with. You'll walk away with tangible mindset tools, flexible structure, and habits that keep you showing up, even when life gets messy.www.trainmk.com@melissa_kendter- A 2014 systematic review and meta-analysis in the British Journal of Sports Medicine- The LIFTMOR trial (2017)- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24100287/- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30131332/

This week's episode exemplifies the difference between Neil and Dave.Neil reads the British Journal of Psychology to research his incredible facts. Dave reads the paper in which he got his fish and chips.Nevertheless, Dave‘s fishy facts will wow you but not as much as the story of the Irish man who named a fruit and invented hot chocolate. Neil reveals how the price of a bottle of Coca-Cola remained the same for more than 70 years and greatly excited Dave with his talk of 40-foot container standardisation.

From collagen powders to $100 creams, the skincare industry thrives on promises. However, many of the products we rely on for younger, healthier skin are built on shaky evidence. In this episode, world-renowned dermatologist Professor John McGrath breaks down what's real and what's not. We explore how skin truly ages, what happens beneath the surface, and why some popular treatments don't do what they claim. John dismantles three of the biggest myths in skincare, including the truth about SPF, collagen, and “bio-active” ingredients that never make it past the top layer of your skin. Professor McGrath is a Professor of Molecular Dermatology at King's College London and editor of the British Journal of Dermatology. His research has transformed how we understand genetic skin disorders and vitamin D's role in skin health. This conversation is packed with surprising insights - and one daily step that really does support healthier skin as you age.

Moxie was the first mass-produced soft drinks in the United States dating back to 1876 when it was created by a doctor. Root Beer was invented by a pharmacist named Charles Hires, who introduced the beverage in 1876 with real sassafras, something today considered too dangerous and therefore replaced with artificial flavor. Dr Pepper was introduced by a pharmacist named Charles Alderton and his famous 23 flavors in 1885. Coca-Cola was introduced by pharmacist John Pemberton in 1886, who used a small amount of cocaine. In 1893 another pharmacist introduced Caleb Bradshaw Pepsi, the later name for the pepsin and kola nut extra in the product. In 1929 Charles Grigg introduced 7UP, which contained lithium citrate, a naturally occurring alkali metal with psychotropic (or mood altering) effects.Fig Newtons, Graham Crackers, Corn Flakes, and Grape-Nuts were all introduced as health supplements. In all of these cases we are observing beverages and food-substances that were originally sold as tonics, medicinals, and the like, while today they are anything but. What was originally sold as medicine is today sold as liberty, and what would certainly never be sold as a health tonic today is also never accused of causing health issues.The British Journal of Sports Medicine reported back in 2017 the “overlap between the consumption of added sugars and drug-like effects.” Cheese is likewise known to be just as addictive, something linked to casein and casomorphines produced during digestion. The study, published in the U.S. National Library of Medicine, examines why certain foods are more addictive than others. Researchers identified addictive foods from about 500 people who completed the Yale Food Addiction Scale, designed to measure if someone has a food addiction.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.
