Vitamin K2 (MK-7) and Coronary Artery Calcification: Insights from a 2-Year Trial: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a two-year randomized clinical trial in JAMA Cardiology from Maastricht University Medical Center reporting that daily vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, MK-7) at 360 mcg slowed progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC) in 180 patients with confirmed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and baseline CAC 50–400 Agatston units. Compared with placebo, consistent MK-7 use was associated with 29% lower CAC progression and 42% less arterial calcium mass progression, though CAC still increased in both groups; stenosis increases were numerically lower with MK-7 but not statistically significant. Leyla notes many participants were on statins and were smokers, highlighting that statins can raise CAC by stabilizing soft plaque via calcification. The trial suggests MK-7 may slow calcification in newer plaques, may improve arterial elasticity via matrix GLA protein activation, is inexpensive and safe, but clinical event reduction remains unproven; Leyla suggests considering MK-7 (possibly 360 mcg) with vitamin D, magnesium, and dietary measures.

 Give Nutrition Advice Without Making Patients Feel Punished Have you ever asked, “Do you have any other questions?” at the end of a visit and immediately regretted it?Same.Because of course they have more questions. Important questions. Questions that probably should have been asked 15 minutes ago, except now you're already behind, the next patient is waiting, and you're trying to be compassionate without completely derailing the visit.In this episode, I'm talking with Maya Feller, MS, RD, CDN, registered dietitian, author of Eating From Our Roots, and founder of Maya Feller Nutrition, about the art of inviting patients into treatment instead of simply telling them what to do.We talk about cultural humility, implicit bias, why foods like rice, tortillas, noodles, plantains, and traditional starches get unfairly blamed for chronic disease, and how clinicians can help patients improve blood sugar, blood pressure, and lipids without stripping away the foods that feel like home. Maya also shares a brilliant framework for setting the agenda with patients, asking permission, and keeping the visit patient-centered without losing control of the clock. In this episode, you'll learn: Why “healthy” food is often viewed through an Anglo-American lens, and how that can unintentionally shame patients' cultural foods  How to be curious before corrective when talking about nutrition, weight, chronic disease, and food traditions  How to use the plate method more flexibly What to say when patients want to improve blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, or inflammation without giving up familiar foods  Why frozen meals, canned foods, jarred foods, dried beans, frozen vegetables, and center-aisle foods absolutely belong in realistic nutrition counseling  How to help patients reduce added sugar without making it feel like punishment  Maya's strategy for “sugar interactions” and helping patients create a beginning, middle, and end around sweets  How to start the visit by asking what is on the patient's mind, while still addressing your clinical priorities Resources Mentioned:Episode 146: When Culture is Erased from GuidelinesConnect with MayaAny Questions?

Most of us assume that if we look healthy on the outside, our heart is fine on the inside, but today, preventive cardiology dietitian Michelle Routhenstein explains why that's exactly the assumption that gets women into trouble, especially through perimenopause and beyond. We get into the two numbers your doctor probably isn't checking, ApoB and Lp(a), the first five diet changes Michelle makes with clients to bring down high cholesterol numbers, why stretching may be doing as much for your arteries as it does for your joints, and why blood pressure, not HRV, deserves far more of your attention as you move through this life stage. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN ●      Why heart disease can silently progress in women who look and feel healthy ●      What ApoB and Lp(a) actually measure, and why they matter more than LDL and HDL alone ●      The first five diet changes to lower high ApoB or non HDL cholesterol ●      Why saturated fat, fiber, and gut health all influence your cholesterol numbers ●      Why blood pressure, not HRV, deserves more of your attention in perimenopause ●      How menopause hormone therapy really affects your cardiovascular risk ●      The minerals your heart needs to keep beating and pumping properly TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Heart Disease Risk in Women: ApoB, Lp(a), and the Tests Your Doctor Isn't Running 10:18 The Hidden Inflammation Driving Your Heart Disease Risk (And How to Test for It) 19:29 The Truth About Saturated Fat and Cholesterol After 40 22:19 The First Five Diet Changes to Lower High ApoB or Non HDL Cholesterol 29:24 Bloating, Gut Health and Thyroid: The Hidden Heart Disease Risks in Perimenopause 39:41 Why Stretching Might Be Protecting Your Arteries, Not Just Your Joints 51:48 Does Menopause Hormone Therapy Actually Protect Your Heart?

Les attaques par déni de service, ou DDoS, font partie des méthodes les plus connues de la cybersécurité offensive. Leur principe est simple : envoyer tellement de requêtes vers un site ou un service en ligne que ses serveurs finissent par saturer. Résultat, la page ne répond plus, l'application tombe, et les utilisateurs légitimes ne peuvent plus accéder au service.Traditionnellement, ce type d'attaque nécessite un botnet, c'est-à-dire un vaste réseau de machines compromises : ordinateurs, routeurs, caméras connectées ou objets mal protégés. Mais des chercheurs de la société californienne Calif viennent de documenter une méthode beaucoup plus inquiétante : une attaque DDoS capable de fonctionner depuis un seul ordinateur. Cette technique, baptisée « HTTP/2 Bomb », doit être présentée lors de la conférence Real World AI Security, organisée à Stanford du 23 au 25 juin. Les chercheurs expliquent avoir utilisé Codex, l'IA d'OpenAI, pour les aider à détecter cette faille.Le cœur du problème vient de HTTP/2, une version moderne du protocole qui permet à un navigateur et à un serveur web de communiquer. HTTP/2 a été conçu pour accélérer les sites, notamment grâce à la compression des en-têtes et à l'envoi de plusieurs requêtes sur une même connexion. Mais ces optimisations peuvent être détournées. L'attaque exploite notamment HPACK, le système chargé de compresser certaines informations échangées entre le client et le serveur. En manipulant ce mécanisme, un attaquant peut forcer le serveur à reconstruire en mémoire de très grandes quantités de données pour un trafic en apparence limité. La seconde étape consiste à empêcher cette mémoire d'être libérée rapidement, en jouant sur les mécanismes de contrôle du flux.Selon Calif, un simple ordinateur connecté à 100 Mbps peut ainsi épuiser des dizaines de gigaoctets de mémoire vive en quelques secondes. Lors des tests, un serveur Envoy est tombé en une dizaine de secondes, Apache a saturé 32 Go de mémoire en 18 secondes, tandis que nginx et Microsoft IIS ont cédé en moins d'une minute. La menace est sérieuse, mais pas universelle. Tous les serveurs ne sont pas vulnérables, et certains correctifs existent déjà. En attendant, les experts recommandent de limiter strictement les en-têtes, de passer par des CDN ou proxys inverses, et de désactiver HTTP/2 lorsque c'est possible. Hébergé par Acast.

First Phosphate Corp. (CSE: PHOS | OTCQX: FRSPF) just landed a wave of international backing at the 52nd G7 Summit in Évian, France — and CEO John Passalacqua joins MSE to break down what it means for the company's mine-to-market LFP battery supply chain build-out in Quebec. This episode digs into the details of the agreements signed under the Critical Minerals Resilience and Production Alliance, including: • A letter of interest for up to CDN $275 million in guarantees from Denmark's export credit agency (EIFO) to help finance the Bégin-Lamarche mine • LOIs from Italy's SACE, CDP, and SIMEST, alongside engineering group MAIRE, to support First Phosphate's phosphoric acid plant at Port Saguenay using Ballestra technology • A definitive offtake agreement for a minimum of 200,000 tonnes per annum of phosphate concentrate from Bégin-Lamarche • A definitive offtake agreement for a minimum of 60,000 tonnes per annum of phosphoric acid from the Port Saguenay plant John explains how these deals fit into the broader G7 alliance launched by PM Carney in 2025, what each piece of financing and offtake actually de-risks for the project, where things stand on permitting and construction timelines, and why he believes First Phosphate is positioned to lead North America's push for a secure, traceable battery-grade phosphate supply chain. If you're tracking the critical minerals buildout, North American LFP battery supply chains, or First Phosphate specifically, this is a must-watch update straight from the source. 00:00 Intro 00:57 What the G7 Backing Means 02:33 Offtakes and Italy Partnership 04:19 Deal Terms Revenue and Pricing 05:27 Valuation and LFP Market Upside 08:31 Financing and Shareholder Demand 09:57 Timeline Catalysts and Execution 11:56 How the Alliance Came Together 14:07 Treasury and Capital Stack Press releases discussed: https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-g7-investment-offtake-deals/ https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/backgrounders/2026/06/17/prime-minister-carney-secures-new-partnerships-defence-and-critical https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/2026/06/17/g7-leaders-declaration-securing-supply-chains-critical-minerals https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/china-defends-critical-minerals-export-controls-after-g7-statement-2026-06-18/ Tickers: CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

Sleep, Glymphatic Detox, and the Hidden Heart Risks of Sleep Apnea: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin explains how sleep supports brain “housekeeping” via the glymphatic system, a glial-lymphatic waste-clearance network most active during sleep that moves cerebrospinal fluid through brain spaces to remove metabolites and toxic proteins such as amyloid beta, with sleep deprivation linked to amyloid accumulation. She notes other clearance pathways, including meningeal lymphatic vessels, whose impaired function is associated with neurodegenerative disease and brain injury. Reviews of human studies suggest sleep influences glymphatic outcomes, though results are inconsistent and methods vary. She emphasizes that poor sleep is associated with dementia risk, depressive symptoms, cardiovascular events, mortality, and impaired glucose metabolism, and highlights lifestyle strategies that may improve sleep. She warns that untreated obstructive sleep apnea accelerates cardiovascular aging via intermittent hypoxia and inflammation, raising blood pressure and cardiovascular event risk, while treatment (e.g., CPAP) may halt or reverse damage.

Perimenopause, Insulin Resistance, and Persistent Muscle & Joint Pain: A Functional Medicine Framework: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses perimenopausal musculoskeletal symptoms—new or persistent joint pain, muscle aches, and tendon problems—and highlights a Clinician's Journal article by physical therapist Tara Moore proposing insulin resistance screening in perimenopausal musculoskeletal care. She explains that declining estradiol during the menopausal transition can worsen insulin signaling, increase visceral fat, and reduce insulin sensitivity, affecting skeletal muscle recovery and potentially contributing to tendinopathies and poor or short-lived responses to localized treatments like PT. The framework emphasizes assessing systemic metabolic contributors (e.g., sedentary behavior, high-carbohydrate nutrition patterns, PCOS, central weight gain, stress, sleep disruption) and addressing mediators such as inflammation and impaired glucose utilization. She suggests integrating metabolic risk assessment, sleep and stress strategies, resistance training, and interdisciplinary referrals, arguing that nutrition and supplementation—especially a low-carb approach—may improve recovery and pain outcomes.

PHP Podcast – June 11, 2026 Guest Hosts: Sara Golemon, Elizabeth Barron & Holly Schilling Eric and John are out this week — Sara, Elizabeth, and Holly take over. Here’s what they covered: PHPVerse Recap PHPVerse just wrapped up, and Elizabeth was there in Amsterdam. The format is unusual — all speakers are flown to one location, but the audience is entirely virtual. It was a class act: professional TV crew, studio lighting, and a makeup and hair team on site. Around 2,500–3,000 people watched the live stream. Everything was broadcast as one long block; individual talk segments and possibly the documentary trailer will be cut and released separately. The full stream is available now — the PHP documentary trailer (produced by Jet Breeze, covering 30+ years of PHP history) appears around the 2:24:30 mark. PHP Foundation 2026 Strategy Document Elizabeth and the PHP Foundation released their 2026 strategy document the same day as this recording. The foundation gathered community input across numerous conversations and conferences, synthesized it into findings, and has now published a plan for the rest of the year. Key themes: repositioning PHP’s public perception (which Elizabeth calls a solvable problem), creating six special interest groups, and launching an Onboarding Initiative to build a real on-ramp for new PHP developers. Elizabeth’s view is that the two things giving her the most hope for PHP’s future are the passion and expertise of the community, and how good the language itself has gotten. Visit thephp.foundation to read the full document. The Onboarding Initiative One of the six special interest groups the foundation is launching is specifically focused on bringing new developers into PHP. Goals include creating a true learning path (not just a reference manual that assumes existing knowledge), improving educational resources, and potentially working with the php.net website to improve the first-time experience. Holly made the point that PHP’s barrier to entry is genuinely lower than almost any other language — the Hello World program is 11 characters — but that story isn’t being told outside the PHP bubble. New developers are turning to JavaScript as a first language and running into minified spaghetti instead of something approachable. AI Writing PHP — And PHP as a Second Language Holly built the entire PHP Tek conference app backend in Laravel without writing a single line of code herself — AI-generated throughout, which she reviewed and approved. The code held up to peer review at the conference with only minor style nits. She ran it on PHP 8.3 and used modern standards throughout (one piece of feedback: stop using empty()). The consensus: AI models write good modern PHP because of the vast amount of open source PHP they were trained on. The caveat Sara raised is worth thinking about — how much of that training data is PHP 4-era code and WordPress 3 repositories? Either way, Holly’s case for PHP as a second language is strong: low ceremony, low boilerplate, readable syntax, and it’s a language where you can do something useful in minutes. PHP’s Reputation Problem (and Why It’s Fixable) The group dug into PHP’s perception gap — the mismatch between how good the language actually is and how it’s perceived outside the community. Holly’s experience as a mobile developer who recommends PHP to others: the pushback is immediate (“isn’t that slow?”, “isn’t that dead?”). The benchmarks don’t support that reputation — PHP outperforms Python on most comparable workloads — but data alone doesn’t shift perception. Elizabeth’s point is that this is primarily a storytelling and coordination problem, not a language problem, and that the foundation’s repositioning work is exactly aimed at closing that gap. The community has the passion. It just needs to tell the story outside its own bubble. PHP Polling API RFC Sara walked through the RFC for a new Polling API in PHP (wiki.php.net/rfc/poll_API). The short version: PHP currently has five or six different ways to do I/O multiplexing (watching multiple streams and acting on whichever one is ready first), and which one works depends on the OS, available extensions, and PHP version. The Polling API proposal creates a single, unified interface that abstracts all of that. The immediate beneficiaries are async frameworks like Amp PHP, ReactPHP, and Revolt, which currently have to maintain multiple backend implementations to cover different environments. The bigger picture: this is a building block on the path toward true async PHP, likely contributing to something more complete in PHP 9.0. Most app developers won’t use it directly — but the libraries they depend on will. RFCs are all listed at wiki.php.net/rfc. PHP.net: Do As We Say, Not As We Do Sara, who has contributed to php.net, copped to the state of the codebase: some of it dates to the PHP 3 era, there are functions.inc files, and it is very much “do as we say, not as we do.” The historical reason is that php.net used to rely on community-administered mirrors (r-synced servers running everything from PHP 5.1 to 5.6 simultaneously), so modernizing the code was impossible without controlling the runtime. That’s changed with CDN-based load balancing — they can now control what PHP version runs on php.net — and the code has been getting better. But it’s a slow process. PHP Podcasts Past, Present, and Future Holly asked about the PHP Town Hall podcast (Ben Edmonds and Phil Sturgeon), and the group did a quick tour of PHP podcast history. The PHP Roundtable — originally started by Sammy, taken over by Eric — has produced about three episodes. Sara and producer Joe are planning to take it off Eric’s hands and actually do it properly. And Elizabeth announced that the PHP Foundation is launching a new podcast: tentatively called PHP at Scale, hosted by Ben Marx, focused on telling the stories of organizations pushing PHP to its limits. No launch date yet, but there’s already a queue of interested guests. Next Week’s Show — Moved to Wednesday Sara will be on a boat off the coast of Galicia on Thursday, so next week’s episode is moving to Wednesday. Guests will include Paul Reinheimer and (hopefully) Sean Coase — two veterans from PHP’s podcasting past. Elizabeth is going to try to make it work around the Canadian Grand Prix. Mac Mini M4 for Local LLMs Holly picked up a refurbished Mac Mini M4 (16GB RAM, 512GB storage) specifically to run LLM models locally via Ollama. Apple Silicon is a solid choice for this because the unified memory architecture gives the neural cores access to far more RAM than a discrete GPU setup. Sara is waiting for the M5, which is reportedly not coming until fall — and is already resigned to spending too much on it when it lands.

Most of us have had that moment where we get our bloodwork back and shake our heads. We're still our active, health‑minded selves and out of nowhere—rising LDL, ApoB, A1C, and maybe blood pressure and Lp(a), too. This week, preventive cardiology dietitian Michelle Routhenstein joins us to unpack the cardiometabolic chaos and what's really driving it. She explains estrogen's protective role in lipids and blood pressure, why standard risk calculators and even calcium scores can miss women's disease, and which advanced labs are worth asking for. We also dig into how under‑fueling and low‑carb diets can worsen cardiometabolic health and plaque; why complex carbs, fiber, fermented foods, and gut health matter so much; and how to approach protein, red meat, electrolytes, nitric oxide, and statins in a personalized, empowering way—remembering that 80–90% of heart disease remains preventable when women get the right information and advocate for themselves.Michelle Routhenstein, MS, RD, CDCES, CDN is a preventive cardiology dietitian and founder of Entirely Nourished, a virtual practice focused on personalized, science-based nutrition for heart health. With over 14 years of experience, she helps people improve cardiometabolic risk and manage conditions like atherosclerosis, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation using a whole-person approach. She holds Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Clinical Nutrition from New York University, serves on the Forbes Health Advisory Board and the Medical Advisory Committee for the National Menopause Foundation, and is the author of The Truly Easy Heart-Healthy Cookbook and Simple Meal Solutions for High Blood Pressure.

In this episode of PING we're hearing about secure Internet Routing and its data distribution problem from Job Snijders who has been on PING before talking about his measurements in BGP and RPKI. We caught up at IETF125 in Shenzhen where Job presented to the SIDROPS working group on a new protocol he's been designing, called Erik. The Erik protocol was named in honour of Erik Bais who died in May 2024. Erik was a stalwart of the RIPE routing community. He was a chair of the Address policy working group, and active in the Dutch cloud community and the data center association. RPKI, the principal mechanism for determining secure inter domain routing intent (hence SIDR) depends on every relying party (or RP) validating the data collecting all the signed statements from all the publication points, worldwide. This is a time consuming process which inherently serialises behind the sequence of bytes fetched to form a given repository state at a publication point, and how the protocol works out whats changed since the last fetch by this user, and what to send. It's not very efficient and it's not scaling as well as we'd like as the amount of data rises, and the number of validators or RPs are fetching the data. Job's “Erik” protocol is designed to improve significantly on the two mechanisms defined at present, the RSYNC protocol, originally designed in the mid 1990s for filesystem synchronisation, and RRDP, a SIDR specific delta protocol which was designed to improve on rsync, using experience gained from the NRTM mechanism used to copy data in the RIR WHOIS databases. Job has been able to find why RPKI fetch is slow, and design a protocol using the Merkle Tree mechanism which can significantly improve the collection delay, as well as allow for intermediaries such as CDN providers to host services in the cloud.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses research showing simple strength tests—grip strength and a five-rep sit-to-stand chair test—predict longevity in older women. In a University at Buffalo study of over 5,000 women ages 63–99 followed for eight years, stronger grip and faster chair-stand times were linked to lower mortality; every additional 7 kg of grip strength corresponded to a 12% reduction in death risk, and faster chair-stands were also associated with improved survival, even after adjusting for activity, cardiovascular fitness, and inflammation. She emphasizes prioritizing muscle-strengthening alongside aerobic exercise and suggests accessible resistance options (weights, bodyweight moves, or household items) with professional guidance as needed. She then cites UK Biobank data linking long-term statin use to declines in grip strength and appendicular lean mass, urging discussion with physicians and added vigilance, especially for those also using GLP-1 drugs that may reduce protein intake and muscle mass.

She outlines common measurement tools and biomarkers, including epigenetic clocks (DNA methylation), telomere length, VO2 max, inflammatory markers, grip strength, and muscle mass, noting that genetics account for only about 25–40% of biological aging variation. Key interventions include regular aerobic and resistance exercise, protein-adequate nutrition to preserve muscle and prevent sarcopenia (with whey protein and leucine-rich foods noted), improved sleep, stress management, reducing processed foods and visceral fat, and lowering chronic inflammation (CRP, IL-6). She also reviews hormetic stressors such as sauna use and mentions red/near-infrared light and sun exposure without sunglasses. Leyla shares client examples showing biological age can worsen or improve, and encourages repeat testing after lifestyle changes.

Eccentric Exercise: Better Results with Less Effort. Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, discusses eccentric exercise and research suggesting it may deliver better results than strenuous workouts that cause muscle damage and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). She explains contraction types—isometric, concentric, and eccentric—highlighting that eccentric contractions involve muscle lengthening during the lowering phase (e.g., lowering a dumbbell, walking downstairs) and can provide greater mechanical loading with lower perceived effort, less fatigue, and broad accessibility across ages and health conditions, though requiring more focus and control. She cites studies including stair-descending in elderly obese women improving cardiovascular function, insulin sensitivity, cholesterol, and strength, and a five-minute home routine (chair squats, wall pushups, chair reclines, heel drops) improving strength, flexibility, mental health, and encouraging continued exercise. She notes athletic benefits and the need for further research.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women, yet awareness is still surprisingly low. In this episode of The Positive Pause®, host Claire Gill sits down with two of NMF's Medical Advisory Committee (MAC) members, Dr. Emily Lau, a cardiologist specializing in women's cardiovascular health, and Michelle Routhenstein, a preventive cardiology dietitian, to unpack why midlife is a critical window for prevention and what women can do to take control of their heart health.They explore how menopause changes cardiovascular risk, why heart disease often goes unnoticed, and how small, sustainable lifestyle changes can have a major impact.Emily Lau, MD, MPH a women's cardiovascular health specialist and investigator at Mass General Brigham. Dr. Lau co-directs the Women's Heart Health Program. Dr. Lau's laboratory focuses on understanding how biologic sex differences and female-specific cardiovascular risk factors contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease uniquely in women. Michelle Routhenstein, MS, RD, CDCES, CDN, is the owner and president of Entirely Nourished LLC, a specialized private practice in nutrition counseling and consulting focused on the prevention and management of heart disease. Employing a science-based, holistic approach, she is dedicated to enhancing women's heart health by addressing cardiometabolic risk factors and mitigating the likelihood of cardiovascular issues as individuals age.Key Concepts CoveredMidlife is a turning point for heart healthCardiovascular risk accelerates during and after menopause, making this stage of life a critical opportunity for prevention.Heart disease is often silent and under-recognizedMany women don't realize there's an issue because symptoms aren't obvious. At the same time, awareness has actually declined in recent years, which makes education even more important.Health goes beyond weight and appearanceYou can look healthy and still have underlying cardiovascular risk. That's why personalized testing and understanding your numbers matters.Sustainable habits matter more than extreme changesInstead of restrictive diets or drastic routines, small consistent improvements in nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management lead to better long-term outcomes.Prevention is the real opportunityMidlife isn't just a time of change; it's a chance to take control. With the right approach, most cardiovascular risk factors can be improved or prevented.This conversation makes one thing clear: heart health isn't something women can afford to ignore, especially at midlife. The good news is that most risk factors are preventable and manageable with the right information and consistent action. By focusing on sustainable habits and understanding your personal risk, you can take control of your cardiovascular health and build a stronger future.Connect with Dr. Lau:Website: Mass General Brigham Women's Heart HealthLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emily-lau-11601152/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/‌massgeneral Connect with Michelle:Website: https://www.entirelynourished.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/michellerouthenstein/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heart.Health.Nutritionist/

Nuevo Laredo is one of the most feared cartel cities in Mexico, a place where disappearances, gun battles, and corruption became part of daily life as the Cartel del Noreste, or CDN, tightened its grip on the border. Born from the remnants of the brutal Zetas organization, CDN turned the city into a battlefield, fighting for control of smuggling routes into Texas while allegedly terrorizing civilians, journalists, and anyone seen as a threat. The city became so cartel-corrupted that it dismantled its own police force entirely. The documentary film Spring of the Vanishing adds another layer to the story, documenting how U.S.-trained Mexican marines deployed to fight the Zetas instead carried out their own wave of kidnappings and killings of civilians. Director Andrew Glazer pulls back the curtain on a city where families still search for missing loved ones, and where the line between organized crime and the state itself often seems impossible to separate.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a listener question about whether agave nectar can contribute to obesity like high-fructose corn syrup, arguing that regular use of sweeteners—including agave, honey, monk fruit, stevia, aspartame, sucralose, allulose, and sugar alcohols—can maintain sweet cravings, spike insulin, and contribute to weight-loss plateaus, with added concerns such as microbiome effects, GI upset, and aspartame's neurotoxicity. She notes insulin's role in fat storage and blood pressure via sodium retention, and suggests that needing a sweetener in coffee or tea may indicate dependence on sweetness. She then covers a newly developed, validated Food Noise Questionnaire (FNQ) published in Obesity to measure intrusive food-related rumination, highlighting its five Likert-scale items, study sample characteristics, and the need for further research, including effects of GLP-1 drugs.

This week, we discuss a wild week in infrastructure news, with Akamai, Fastly and Cloudflare reporting earnings, sending all three companies' stock up or down by at least 30%. We detail Cloudflare's announcement that it will lay off over 1,100 employees, Akamai's new $1.8 billion seven-year contract for Cloud Infrastructure Services for AI modeling, and Wall Street's lack of understanding of the CDN business. We highlight reports suggesting that contracts involving Anthropic and OpenAI now ‌account ⁠for more than half of the $2 trillion in backlogs at major cloud providers, and how Google and Amazon reported a surge in profits in their Q1 earnings, based on the valuation of the stock they bought in Anthropic, and not any actual net profit.We also detail the latest numbers you need to know from WBD, Disney, and Fubo earnings, and how, with WBD no longer breaking out streaming subs and Fubo no longer breaking out Hulu+ Live TV subs, it's now almost impossible to compare the growth of DTC services quarter-to-quarter. Finally, we break out the pay TV losses by Optimum, and discuss the unconfirmed reports that Netflix will get two additional NFL games starting in the 2026-27 season. Finally, we highlight Sky Sports' announcement that it will remain the exclusive home of Formula 1 in the UK and Ireland until 2034, and in Italy until 2032, which keeps Apple from getting the rights to stream F1 content in those countries.Podcast produced by Security Halt Media

Steve finally fixed phillycocoa.org, and the journey from broken CircleCI pipelines and hijacked S3 buckets to a blazing-fast Cloudflare Pages site took one Side Project Saturday and an embarrassing number of Codex tokens. Then The Trio turns to the AI hype machine, and they're tired: tired of opaque token costs, tired of reviewing generated code that complicates everything it touches, and tired of an industry that mistakes syntax speed for software engineering.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a Nature Communications study of 108,723 French adults in the NutriNet-Santé cohort (2009–2023) examining long-term exposure to food preservatives and type 2 diabetes. Using detailed dietary records cross-referenced with product/additive databases, researchers identified 58 preservative-related additives and analyzed 17 consumed by at least 10% of participants; 1,131 diabetes cases occurred. Higher overall preservative intake was associated with a 47% increased diabetes risk (49% for non-antioxidant preservatives; 40% for antioxidant additives), with several specific additives linked to higher risk. Leyla questions whether the findings reflect preservatives themselves or the ultra-processed, refined-carbohydrate foods that contain them, emphasizing recommendations to favor fresh, minimally processed foods and limit refined carbs and processed foods.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses how exposure to natural daylight may improve metabolic health beyond diet and exercise, highlighting a controlled crossover study of 13 adults aged 65+ with type 2 diabetes published in Cell Metabolism. Participants spent 4.5 days in living spaces lit by either natural light through large windows or artificial light, with identical meals, sleep, activity, and screen time; after a 4-week washout they switched conditions. Natural light was associated with more hours of blood glucose in the normal range, less glucose variability, higher evening melatonin, and improved fat oxidative metabolism, suggesting effects on circadian “body clocks” and coordination between central and peripheral clocks. Muedin recommends getting morning light on the face, reducing sunglasses and high SPF use, dimming lights at night, keeping consistent sleep, and spending more time outdoors; she also notes that architecture can limit sunlight exposure.

In this special edition of The Produce Moms Podcast, host Lori Taylor is joined by Jaclyn London, MS, RD, CDN, author, and Chief Nutrition Officer for The Produce Moms for a dynamic conversation following their time in Washington, D.C. during National Ag Day.   Together, they unpack key takeaways from a high-level USDA roundtable, including the rollout of the updated "Product of the USA" labeling initiative and its broader implications for agriculture and consumer transparency.

Dietitian Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a Stanford-led randomized controlled trial published in Nature Medicine in which a five-day, calorie-restricted fasting-mimicking diet improved symptoms and inflammatory markers in people with mild to moderate Crohn's disease. In the three-month study of 97 patients, 65 followed monthly five-day cycles of 700–1100 calories/day with plant-based meals, while 32 continued usual diets; about two-thirds of the fasting-mimicking group reported symptom improvement, with fatigue and headaches but no serious side effects, and fecal calprotectin and other inflammatory molecules decreased. She notes bowel rest and the specific carbohydrate diet as additional approaches. The episode also explains how antibiotics can cause diarrhea by disrupting gut bacteria, lists higher-risk antibiotics, offers supportive steps (hydration, BRAT foods, avoiding irritants), recommends Saccharomyces boulardii taken away from antibiotics, and outlines warning signs requiring medical care, including possible C. difficile.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses joint inflammation—its symptoms (swelling, pain, redness, warmth, morning stiffness, reduced range of motion) and why it is usually a sign of an underlying condition rather than a disease itself. She reviews common causes including osteoarthritis (cartilage wear and tear), rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune synovium attack with prolonged morning stiffness and fatigue), gout (uric acid crystals, often in the big toe), psoriatic arthritis, injuries, autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus, ankylosing spondylitis, Sjogren's), infections such as septic arthritis requiring urgent care, and surrounding-tissue problems like tendonitis and bursitis. Lifestyle factors that worsen inflammation include excess weight, poor diet (including unaddressed food allergies; avoiding nightshades is suggested), insulin resistance contributing to gout, lack of exercise, smoking, and stress. Management strategies include rest, bracing, ice vs. heat, OTC anti-inflammatories, gentle low-impact exercise, anti-inflammatory foods, weight loss, treating root causes, and supplements such as glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, bromelain, turmeric, Boswellia, and quercetin.
