The cells are in the HOUSE!

Have you reached the point where you're constantly bracing for your next symptom? Even simple things like eating something you've eaten before, or having a busy day at work, fill your mind with the worry: "Is this going to set my body off again?" If you've been dealing with brain fog, bloating, skin reactions, fatigue, anxiety, heart palpitations, or other symptoms that seem to come out of nowhere, you know how exhausting it can be to lose trust in your own body. In this episode of The Health Made Simple Show, Dr. Bart explores one of the most overlooked pieces of the puzzle behind Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS): the relationship between chronic stress, your nervous system, and your immune system. Because while foods, toxins, and environmental triggers certainly matter, your body can only stay in a constant state of fight-or-flight for so long before the immune system itself begins to change. In this episode, you'll learn: Why chronic stress can quietly dysregulate your immune system The connection between stress and MCAS symptoms How cortisol, adrenaline, blood sugar, and inflammation work together Why your body can become more reactive over time The difference between living in fight-or-flight versus the body's natural healing state   Plus, Dr. Bart shares the same therapies he's used to help hundreds of people shift their bodies back into a healing state. If you've been trying to avoid every trigger but still don't feel like yourself, this episode will help you start seeing the bigger picture.

New episode out now! We try to go viral with the 2001 partially-animated comedy Osmosis Jones. We delve into how the live action and animation feel so disconnected tonally, discuss how we did enjoy the worldbuilding and the sheer amount of puns and visual jokes, thought the music choices were not appropriate, and share how we were also just really, really, really grossed out. We talk about why children would watch this in school, despair at the racist shorthand so common in children's media of this time, lament the parentification of Shane and wish her dad was better, and ultimately feel this was an interesting idea that was just not executed well. Katy brings up Buffy again, Carrie auditions for The Pitt, Maddy gives an interesting review of B-Dubs, and Mack has an apology to prepare for the afterlife. We also reiterate that farts are funny, learn about species-typical behavior, get excited about a hive mind, and are semi-confident in our knowledge of the human body. Listen to hear more about symptom management, Disney sequels, Laurence Fishburne, mente de gorila, the hypothalamus, mayoneggs, and scheming little brothers. And eat more fiber! Enjoy!TW: Statutory rape, racism, fatphobia, puking, virology, cancerShow Notes:If you want to watch a different version of the “immune system response as shown by law enforcement fighting germs” we recommend Cells at Work! which exists as a manga, anime show, and a live-action movie on Netflix.

“What's Buggin' You” segment for Wednesday 6-3-26

BUFFALO, NY — June 3, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on May 15, 2026, titled “Extracellular vesicles released by senescent myoblasts affect recipient cells via miRNA-target interactions.” The study was led by first author Michael Kamal from the Department of Kinesiology at McMaster University and corresponding author Gianni Parise from the same university. As people age, skeletal muscle gradually loses strength, size, and regenerative capacity. Scientists have increasingly linked these changes to cellular senescence—a state in which damaged cells permanently stop dividing but remain metabolically active. These senescent cells release a complex mixture of signaling molecules known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which can influence neighboring cells and contribute to tissue dysfunction. In this study, the researchers investigated whether extracellular vesicles (EVs)—tiny membrane-bound particles released by cells—play a role in this process. Specifically, they examined EVs released by senescent muscle precursor cells, known as myoblasts, and analyzed the microRNAs (miRNAs) carried within these vesicles. The team found that senescent myoblasts released factors that impaired normal muscle cell development. When healthy muscle cells were exposed to signals from senescent cells, the resulting muscle fibers became significantly smaller and displayed increased expression of genes associated with cellular stress and senescence. Further analysis revealed that EVs released by senescent myoblasts carried a distinct set of miRNAs. The researchers identified 22 significantly altered miRNAs, including several previously linked to cellular senescence, such as miR-34a, miR-34b, miR-34c, and miR-22. The study also identified miR-301a-3p as a potentially novel senescence-associated miRNA.

What if your gut symptoms aren't SIBO—and aren't improving despite treatment?In this episode, we explore a common clinical scenario: patients with bloating, gas, and digestive issues that look like SIBO but don't respond to standard therapies. We take a deeper look at mold exposure, mast cell activation, and histamine as overlooked drivers of chronic gut symptoms. Dr. Crane Holmes joins us to break down how mold can impact the gastrointestinal system, why symptoms often extend beyond the gut, and how to recognize when something more complex is going on.In this episode, we discuss:When to suspect something beyond SIBOHow mold exposure can drive gut inflammation and symptomsThe connection between mold, mast cells, and histamineWhy patients may have multi-system symptoms (brain fog, fatigue, sinus issues)The role of environmental testing (ERMI) vs lab testingPractical approaches to treatment, including binders, detox support, and reducing exposure

In the future, can autoimmune disease become curable? A groundbreaking study from Germany suggests there may be a pathway in some cases. Patients with severe, treatment-refractory lupus who received CD19 CAR-T cell therapy have remained in drug-free remission for up to five years without ongoing immunosuppression. In this episode, we discuss how these findings are shifting the conversation from disease control to the possibility of cure, and what they could mean for lupus, inflammatory myopathies, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune diseases more broadly. We also explore CAR-T therapy, immune resets, regulatory T cells, relapse risk, and the future of rheumatology with Dr. Georg Schett.

Send us Fan MailThis week on Mondays Down Under, Lee, Shane, and Nick sit down with Lee from AIS Water for a fascinating deep dive into the world of saltwater chlorination, chlorinator cells, and the rare-earth metal quietly impacting pool owners across the globe: ruthenium.AIS Water has spent more than three decades focused exclusively on saltwater chlorination, manufacturing everything from residential chlorinators to massive commercial systems used around the world. Lee shares insights from both the Australian and international markets while explaining why chlorinator replacement cells have become significantly more expensive in recent years.The conversation explores how ruthenium—a critical component used in chlorinator cell coatings—has skyrocketed in price due to global supply constraints, geopolitical instability, increased demand from electronics and AI data centers, and reduced mining output. What once cost around $400 USD per ounce now costs more than $1,600 USD per ounce, creating major challenges for manufacturers and consumers alike.The team discusses:Why ruthenium is essential for modern reverse-polarity chlorinator cellsWhether alternative materials could eventually replace rutheniumThe real reasons some chlorinator cells last 10+ years while others struggle to survive warranty periodsHow manufacturers balance quality, longevity, and rising production costsWhy reverse-polarity technology changed the industry foreverThe differences between older mesh-style cells and modern flat-plate designsHow coating consistency impacts chlorine production and cell lifespanWhy AIS continues to prioritize long-term durability over lower-cost shortcutsThe discussion also ventures into water chemistry and operating conditions that dramatically affect chlorinator performance and longevity. Lee explains how low salt levels, improper testing methods, reverse-polarity frequency, phosphates, water temperature, and flow rates can all influence chlorine production and shorten cell life.Listeners will learn:Why running low salt levels can reduce cell life by thousands of hoursThe difference between chloride testing and conductivity-based salt readingsWhy TDS and actual salt levels are not the same thingHow cold water impacts chlorine generationBest practices for winter chlorinator operationWhy some chlorinators produce exactly what their labels claim while others may notThe importance of understanding chlorinator output ratings and testing standardsThe episode also touches on emerging wellness trends, including cold plunges and hot-cold therapy pools, and the unique challenges these environments create for saltwater chlorination systems.Whether you're a service technician, retailer, builder, or simply someone who wants to better understand what is happening inside a saltwater chlorinator, this episode offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the science, engineering, and economics driving one of the most important pieces of equipment in modern swimming pools.Got questions about saltwater chlorination, chlorinator cells, phosphates, magnesium chloride, or pool chemistry? Let us know and we may bring Lee back for a future episode.Talking Pools Podcast – Mondays Down UnderBecause sometimes the most important thing in your pool isn't what you can see—it's what is happening on a microscopic layer of ruthenium-coated titanium.#SwimmingPools #PoolService #SaltWaterPools #PoolIndustry #PoolChemistry #TalkingPoolsPodcast #AISWater #PoolProfessionals Support the showThank you so much for listening!

You've been living a lie. Not because you want to — because you were taught to think it's truth. Believing this lie means you believe you're less than you are. It means you'll always feel like part of you is missing and no matter what you do or how hard you try, nothing leads to true fulfillment. This is NOT how you were created to exist. But what if all you had to do was remember the truth behind this lie? What if remembering means you change your life forever — would you do it? By the end of this episode you will understand exactly why nothing you have tried has ever led to lasting fulfillment. You will know what is actually happening inside your body every time you ignore your instincts — and why that knowledge alone begins to change things. You will see how the internet and AI were designed to replace something inside you — and feel the beginning of taking it back. You will know what percentage of your own energy you are actually accessing right now — and what becomes possible when you start letting more through. And you will walk away with one practice that begins moving you toward who you were always created to be — no course, no program, no permission required. They taught you it doesn't exist. You will leave this episode knowing it always has — and feeling it for the first time.

ACCOUNTABILITY IN ACTION ...... “From Prison Cells to Community Change”This week on on Turning A Moment Into A Movement, we continue our Accountability in Action series with a powerful conversation about transformation, justice, and community leadership.Host Jay Love welcomes special guest Danny Dandridge, a nationally recognized violence prevention advocate, entrepreneur, author, and media creator from Birmingham, Alabama. After serving 19 years in prison and being featured in HBO's Academy Award–nominated documentary The Alabama Solution, Danny transformed his life into a mission focused on youth mentorship, prison reform advocacy, workforce development, and exposing systemic injustice.Joining the conversation as part of the Turning A Moment Into A Movement team is Marcus Kelly, founder of Change Up Midnight Coalition” and a survivor of wrongful conviction who spent nearly nine years incarcerated fighting for prisoners' civil rights and accountability inside Michigan prisons.Together, we'll discuss prison reform, wrongful convictions, reentry, advocacy, community healing, and what it means to turn lived experience into action and change.This is more than a conversation about incarceration—it's about resilience, redemption, accountability, and rebuilding communities.

Welcome to How Humans Heal. In this episode, I'm going to help you understand the critical difference between folic acid and methylfolate, and whether you should be taking either one if you're testing positive for high-risk HPV virus and potentially abnormal cells. Folic acid and methylfolate are both forms of vitamin B9. Folic acid is the synthetic form of vitamin B9, while methylfolate is the active form. Foic acid is commonly used in processed foods and many lower-quality supplements like multivitamins, prenatal vitamins, and B-complexes. Once you swallow folic acid, your body has to convert it into methylfolate, which is the form your cells can actually use. However, at least forty percent of us have at least one gene variation called MTHFR, which affects our ability to convert folic acid into folate. If you're one of those people with one or more MTHFR variations, you might not be able to convert folic acid as effectively. This means you won't get all the benefits from it. I've been in practice for over twenty-six years, and I specialize in HPV, abnormal pap smears, women's health, MTHFR, gene variations, and methylation issues. These are my specialties, and this is why I'm so passionate about helping people understand this topic. I'm here to help you!

In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Brad Pitzele, founder of One Thousand Roads, to explore one of the most overlooked drivers of energy, recovery, and resilience: Oxygen at the cellular level. After facing autoimmune arthritis, malignant melanoma, Lyme disease, and Bartonella, Brad found himself searching beyond conventional approaches when his health continued to decline. What he discovered is something many high performers—and especially midlife athletes—often miss: Your body cannot produce energy, repair tissue, or recover effectively without proper oxygen delivery and utilization. In this conversation, we break down the science and real-world application of Exercise With Oxygen Therapy (EWOT) and red light therapy, and how these tools can help improve mitochondrial function, reduce inflammation, and restore energy. We also explore how poor oxygen utilization may be contributing to fatigue, brain fog, slow recovery, and metabolic dysfunction—even when you're training, eating well, and doing all the "right" things. In this episode, you will learn: What Exercise With Oxygen Therapy (EWOT) is and how it works The connection between oxygen, mitochondria, and ATP production Why fatigue and brain fog may be linked to poor oxygen utilization How red light therapy supports cellular energy and recovery The concept of an "oxygen deficit" and its role in chronic inflammation How oxygen supports detoxification through the lungs and movement Why high performers often get stuck in a "survival mode" state Practical ways to begin improving oxygen delivery and recovery capacity Free Resource from Brad Pitzele: The Synergistic Power of EWOT & Red Light Therapy www.bradtalkshealth.com https://www.onethousandroads.com/pages/podcast Connect with Brad: Website: One Thousand Roads Instagram: @onethousandroadshq If this episode resonates with you and you are ready to stop guessing and start testing your metabolism, energy systems, and recovery capacity: Schedule your Discovery Call at: www.debbiepotts.net The Coach Debbie Potts Show is designed for high-performing individuals in midlife who want to improve metabolism, build strength, restore energy, and optimize longevity by addressing the root cause—not just the symptoms.

In this episode, the host introduces Muse cells, a recently identified subset of naturally occurring reparative cells associated with stem cell research and regenerative science. The discussion explains how these cells are found within tissues like bone marrow and umbilical cord sources, and how researchers are working to isolate and study their unique properties, including their responsiveness to signals related to stress or tissue damage. The conversation also highlights ongoing areas of investigation—such as neurology, orthopedics, and cardiovascular research—while emphasizing that much of the current understanding is still emerging. Overall, the episode presents Muse cells as a developing area of interest within the broader field of regenerative medicine and longevity-focused research.RESOURCES:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.  Many of the molecules discussed in this video are research compounds and are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any specific medical use, indication, or condition.

After a serious heart attack with no conventional warning signs, Dr. John Kim went searching for answers. He was shocked to find what conventional testing never unearthed: he was unknowingly fighting a Bartonella infection, a heavy mycotoxin load and parasites. This was when the pharmacist turned functional medicine practitioner learned the role cellular energy plays in health breakdowns, and, vitally, in healing.  In this episode, you'll learn about cell-danger response and the connection between biotoxins and mitochondrial dysfunction (did you know if your cells are healthy they repel parasites?!). Dr. Kim shares his best tips for cellular healing (butyrate, phospholipids and sunlight) and walks us through the steps he takes his own clients through: taking stock of your individual environment, healing your nervous system, detox pathways, strengthening the microbiome, and building resilience so you can live your life.

What if your own immune cells could be engineered to fight and even cure cancer? In this episode of Rx for Biotech, host Chris Leidli sits down with Navneet Majhail, MD, a leading expert in blood cancers, bone marrow transplants, and CAR-T cell therapy, to break down one of the most powerful innovations in modern medicine: CAR-T therapy. CAR-T therapy is a form of immunotherapy that uses a patient's own T cells - engineered in a lab - to recognize and destroy cancer. It has already transformed outcomes for patients with leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma, offering hope where few options previously existed. But despite its promise, many eligible patients still don't receive CAR-T therapy due to barriers like access, geography, insurance, and care coordination. In this conversation, Dr. Majhail explains: • What CAR-T cell therapy is and how it works • Why access to treatment remains a major challenge • The role of bone marrow transplant and cellular therapy networks • How care is shifting closer to home through community-based treatment models • The importance of caregivers and support systems during treatment • What the future holds for CAR-T in solid tumors, autoimmune diseases, and beyond This episode is a must-watch for patients, caregivers, and anyone interested in the future of personalized cancer treatment, immunotherapy, and advanced therapies

BUFFALO, NY — May 15, 2026 — A new #review was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on May 4, 2026, titled “Cellular senescence: from pathogenic mechanisms to precision anti-aging interventions.” The study was led by first author Jian Deng and corresponding author Dong Yang from the Department of Targeting Therapy and Immunology, Cancer Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China. In this comprehensive review, the authors examine how cellular senescence contributes to aging and age-related disease across multiple organ systems, while also highlighting the emerging complexity and functional diversity of senescent cell populations. Traditionally, senescent cells have been viewed primarily as harmful byproducts of aging, characterized by irreversible cell-cycle arrest and chronic inflammatory signaling. However, growing evidence suggests that some senescent cells also play beneficial physiological roles in tissue repair, embryonic development, and maintenance of tissue homeostasis. The review outlines how senescence develops in major tissues including the liver, lungs, kidneys, heart, adipose tissue, brain, and skin. Across these organs, aging-related cellular dysfunction is driven by a combination of oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, DNA damage, chronic inflammation, metabolic stress, telomere shortening, and environmental insults such as ultraviolet radiation and pollution. The authors describe how senescent cells accumulate in highly specialized cell populations—including hepatocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, astrocytes, and epithelial cells—where they can disrupt normal tissue architecture and promote chronic disease progression. Importantly, the article emphasizes that senescent cells are highly heterogeneous and should not be treated as a uniform population. Depending on the tissue context and biological environment, senescent cells may exert either protective or harmful effects. For example, certain senescent cells may help limit fibrosis or support wound healing, whereas others drive chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, tissue degeneration, and cancer progression. This growing recognition of functional heterogeneity has prompted a major shift in anti-aging research away from indiscriminate elimination of senescent cells toward more selective and precision-based therapeutic strategies. “Based on these insights, this review summarizes the induction mechanisms of cellular senescence and the subsequent evolution of their functional phenotypes across diverse tissues.” Full press release - https://www.aging-us.com/news-room/precision-anti-aging-strategies-aim-to-target-harmful-senescent-cells-while-preserving-beneficial-ones Paper DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206375 Corresponding author - Dong Yang – yangdong@wchscu.cn Abstract video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkJRwF8mp4A Keywords - cellular senescence, aging mechanisms, functional heterogeneity, precision anti-aging To learn more about the journal, please visit www.Aging-US.com​​ and connect with us on social media at: Bluesky - bsky.app/profile/aging-us.bsky.social ResearchGate - www.researchgate.net/journal/Aging-1945-4589 X - twitter.com/AgingJrnl Facebook - www.facebook.com/AgingUS/ Instagram - www.instagram.com/agingjrnl/ LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/company/aging/ Reddit - www.reddit.com/user/AgingUS/ Pinterest - www.pinterest.com/AgingUS/ YouTube - www.youtube.com/@Aging-US Spotify - open.spotify.com/show/1X4HQQgegjReaf6Mozn6Mc MEDIA@IMPACTJOURNALS.COM

Guest: Dr. Tullia Bruno is an Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh. She discusses how B cells and tertiary lymphoid structures shape anti-tumor immunity within solid tumors, challenging the traditional T cell–centric view of cancer immunology. She highlights how these immune niches influence responses to immunotherapy, the importance of spatial organization within the tumor microenvironment, and emerging strategies to therapeutically induce tertiary lymphoid structures to improve cancer treatment.

CoQ10 and Stroke Recovery: What the Science Actually Shows Your brain is the most energy-hungry organ in your body. It accounts for roughly 2% of your body weight but consumes about 20% of all the energy you produce. One of the key molecules driving that energy, CoQ10, quietly declines from your 30s onwards. For stroke survivors navigating fatigue, cognitive changes, and the long arc of recovery, that raises an obvious question: could supplementing with CoQ10 actually help? This mini-episode examines the peer-reviewed evidence — not marketing copy, not supplement industry claims, but what clinical research actually shows. What Is CoQ10 and Why Does It Matter After a Stroke? Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, or ubiquinol in its active form, is a molecule your body produces naturally. It lives primarily in the mitochondria, the energy-producing structures inside your cells, where it plays two roles: generating ATP (the cellular energy currency everything in your biology runs on) and acting as a powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radicals. When a stroke occurs, whether ischemic or hemorrhagic, the brain undergoes what is called ischemia-reperfusion injury. Blood flow is cut off, then restored. That restoration triggers inflammation and a surge of oxidative stress. Mitochondria in neurons start failing. Cells die not just from the original event but from the metabolic fallout that follows. CoQ10 goes directly to the site of that problem. If levels can be sustained or supplemented adequately, the theory is that it could reduce the secondary damage unfolding in the hours, days, and weeks after stroke. What Does the Clinical Research Actually Show? A landmark 2025 review published in the journal Nutrients analysed 12 animal studies and 8 human randomised controlled trials examining CoQ10’s effects on the brain. The findings are genuinely mixed, which is exactly what honest science looks like. In animal models, the evidence is consistent and compelling. Across Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and epilepsy models, CoQ10 supplementation produced meaningful improvements in cognitive function via reduced oxidative stress, decreased neuroinflammation, increased ATP production in the hippocampus, and reductions in amyloid plaque burden. In humans, the picture is more complex. Of the 8 human RCTs reviewed, 4 showed evidence of benefit in specific conditions. In Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, frontal lobe cognitive function improved significantly. In Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 150mg daily for 8 to 12 weeks improved working memory and reduced oxidative stress markers. In one Parkinson’s trial combining CoQ10 with creatine, cognitive improvements were measured at 12 and 18 months. However, trials in Alzheimer’s disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment showed no significant cognitive benefit, even at high doses. There is also an unresolved question: whether supplemental CoQ10 can cross the blood-brain barrier in meaningful quantities. Indirect pathways improved cerebral blood flow, reduced systemic inflammation, and may account for observed effects rather than direct brain-level action. What This Means for Stroke Survivors The honest assessment: the research supports a biologically plausible mechanism. CoQ10 is depleted by the conditions that cause and follow stroke. Supplementation shows real benefit in some neurological conditions. Animal evidence is consistently positive. But large-scale human RCTs specifically in stroke populations are still limited. Two practical points worth raising with your treating team before starting CoQ10: Form matters. Ubiquinol (the reduced form) has significantly higher bioavailability than standard ubiquinone, particularly important for older adults whose absorption is lower. Drug interactions. CoQ10 can reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin, a medication many stroke survivors take. It may also amplify blood-pressure-lowering effects of antihypertensive medications. Take the research, not the marketing, to your neurologist or GP. Ask whether it is appropriate, given your specific stroke type and current medications, what dose the evidence supports, and how long a reasonable trial period looks like.

Why do women in long-term relationships often lose their 'spark' while men seem to have an on-off switch? Is your hair dryer actually causing your colour to fade? And, can you get a medical 'crystal ball' to tell you exactly how many eggs you have left? In this episode, Dr Mariam and Claire speak to Dr Eva Jackson, a Sexual Health Physician, to unpack the complex world of female desire. They discuss the difference between 'spontaneous' and 'reactive' arousal, why the word 'libido' might be outdated, and the medical reasons - from antidepressants to hormonal shifts - that might be stalling your sex life. Plus, in Med School, Claire and Dr Mariam look at the science of hair health. We reveal the research-backed way to dry your hair to prevent cuticle damage (hint: it involves a ruler and a blast of cold air) and why leaving your hair to air-dry might actually be doing more harm than good. And, in the Quick Consult, Dr Mariam answers Catherine’s question about 'ticking clock' anxiety. We break down what tests like AMH levels can actually tell you about your fertility at 27, why your partner’s health is just as important in the equation, and why a preconception screen is the best first step for peace of mind.

When he does, like, things without me asking, right, So, my goodness, Like he's packed the kids their lunches, he's taken a bit of my mental load. He's done a bit of cleaning. Men do not understand. 00:31Speaker 1 Okay, men do not understand me. Take a little bit of mental load, it is so hot 00:38Speaker 2 So hot, 00:46Speaker 1 Hi there, welcome to Well your Full Body Health Check. I'm Claire Murphy. 00:50Speaker 2 And I'm doctor Mariam. 00:51Speaker 1 And today we're talking about Libido time to get spicy. There is always a lot of comparisons about how women's health issues have been overlooked while men get pills for a rectile dysfunction, But there are actually pills for women's desire too, which we will discuss. But we'll also touch on what it is about us that so many of us do seem to lose spark over time. We'll also have a quick consult for Catherine today. She's got a ticking clock issue and she wants to know how to maybe quieten it down just a little bit. But next mariam are you a blow dry girl, after you wash your hair or do you let it just do its thing and air dry. 01:33Speaker 2 I'm gonna be honest. I actually wash my hair every seven to ten days. I know, I know, you know why. I have so much hair, So I have to blow dry my hair after I've had to wash. But I do it in segments because there's so much and it takes so long. 01:50Speaker 1 Oh, this is me crying you tears of sadness for your I have so much glorious flowing hair that it takes me hours to dry, so much work. 02:00Speaker 2 I actually get like I sweat, it's like almost need to shower again. So I'll do like a light blow dry to start with, and then I'll do like a quarter and proper and then I'll just take a couple of hours off and then revisit. 02:13Speaker 1 Over two days, just take breaks between. 02:16Speaker 2 It hurts my arms so painful. 02:19Speaker 1 Rip your hairdresser. Okay, Well, next in med school, I'm gonna reveal which one to blow dry or not to blow dry is actually better for your hair. Welcome to med school. Is it better for your hair to leave it to dry naturally or use a blow dry? I unlike you with your glorious tresses have very fine hair, not a lot of it, so I almost have to race from the shower to the hair dry before it starts drying by itself. 02:47Speaker 2 What happens if it dries. 02:48Speaker 1 If it dries naturally by itself, it ends up in weird shapes. Okay, so it's naturally straight, so I don't straighten it. But if I don't blow dried, it's almost stuck to my scalp and it's very flat, so it needs some kind of air in there for vol But if you've ever visited a hairdresser, they will have different opinions, which is funny because they'll tell you you need to put stuff on your hair to protect it from any heat, and we use a lot of heat with curlers or straighteners or hair dryers whilst they simultaneously fry your hair as they blow right from the roots right. But here's the thing. Your hair can absorb about thirty percent of its weight when it's wet, so it soaks up the water and swells from the inside. So what that means is it's stretching your hair's outer layer or cuticle, and that puts pressure on the cell membrane complex. That's the glue that holds all those cuticles together and forms the length of your hair. So if you leave it wet, it stays in that vulnerable swollen state for longer, and then cracks can form due to that swelling. That is what then causes damage to the cuticle itself, and sometimes it can also cause your colour to fade because the color is absorbed in them. And then if you leave it wet and out to dry naturally, can crack that and make the colour stuff to go right, So, what is the best option for hair health? According to research. Yes, research has been done on this. Blow drying on medium heat from fifteen centimeters away fifteen fifteen Oh jeez, I know. 04:17Speaker 2 It's it's fair ways away from your head. That's more arm work. 04:21Speaker 1 It is more arm work. You can get bigger by steps, keep the dryer moving so it doesn't heat up one area for too long, and then drying it till it's just about eighty percent and then leaving the rest to dry naturally. Okay, that apparently causes less damage than just doing nothing. So little bit of heat not too much. So apparently then too, you should finish off with a bit of a cool blast of air because it helps seal the cuticle part of it and also stops the residual heat. 04:50Speaker 2 And it holds its shape longer. 04:52Speaker 1 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, So just measure fifteen to get a ruler. Jeez, measure fifteen centimeters away from you head. 05:00Speaker 2 Yeah, it's going to be a little bit hard work. Sorry about that. 05:04Speaker 1 On the way, today's check up, where we are off in search of all of our lost libidos, or never found? Where did they go? 05:15Speaker 3 It's time for the checkup? 05:18Speaker 1 Mariam? What gets you going sexually? 05:20Speaker 2 Well, okay, if you ask me, ten years ago been very different, right, what is it today? today? It is when my husband shows up, just appears, when he does like things without me asking, right, So, my goodness, Like he's packed the kids their lunches, he's taken a bit of my mental load, he's done a bit of cleaning. 05:44Speaker 1 Men do not understand. Okay, men do not understand me take a little bit of mental load. Is so hot? 05:54Speaker 2 It is so hot, so hot. 05:56Speaker 1 Yeah. But Mariam, do many women speak to you about not being motivated to have sex anymore? 06:01Speaker 4 Okay? 06:02Speaker 2 So women will often say I just don't feel like having sex anymore, and it's kind of like, oh, this is the status quo. I've accepted it, and it's not something they generally come to me with, so. 06:15Speaker 1 That's always they've already accepted this. 06:16Speaker 2 Yeah, that's where they're at, and it's like the norm and it's acceptable, and sometimes they don't offer that information. I as a GP like to cover a lot of sexual health in my consultations, and a lot of the time that I will get, is something wrong with me? And I want to say, nothing is wrong with you. You're not broken, and you're definitely not the only one feeling this way. Three of us in the room have put our hands up. In fact, Australian research shows that one in three women will experience low sexual desire at some point in their life, so that's a third of us. So if you're nodding along right now, you're in good company. And what's interesting, it's rarely about not wanting sex. Sometimes it's medical, sometimes emotion. On a lot of the time it's both. So let's start with the medical side of things. So a lot of the time there's a hormonal issue at play. You may have just had a baby, you might be going through perimenopause or menopause, and we know a lot of medications to side effect can be loss of libido. Then there's low iron, thyroid issues, chronic pain, endometriosis. They all can play a role as well, So before you start blaming yourself or your relationship, it's worth getting a checkup. Then there's the emotional and relationship side. So when you're juggling work, especially as a female, you've got your family, You've got the mental and emotional load, and that invisible to do list that just never ends. Your brain's just in this survival mode, and a brain that's trying to get through the day isn't exactly thinking, yes, let's get it on tonight, I really want some penis. 07:51Speaker 1 And there's something about like, you know, you might even be in a great frame of mind and thinking, yeah, I am feeling turned on right now, and then your partner will be like, where's my shoes and you're like, oh yeah, oh now, I'm just dealing with another child, and it's like that switches off immediately, right, So it doesn't take much to turn off. And we're not always visual creatures either. Women. We are very much in our heads and we like to be turned on in different ways, not just like and I know I've had conversations with my friends and one of my friends said, have any of your husbands just like pulled it out and said, hey, let's go, And we've all kind of gone yeah, and they're like, did that work for any of you? And one of our friends has got like quite a high libido and she's like, Yep, I'm ready to go anytime of the day or night, and that works for her. But for the rest of us, we were like, no, it does not work for me. But when I asked, have any of you talked to your husbands about that? And they're like, yeah, we tried to say something like that doesn't work, but none of us said what would work? Yeah, so the communication wasn't great with that either. 08:58Speaker 2 I always tell my husband's sex starts before the bedroom, and I know it's hard with kids, liked you kind of have to book in that intimacy. 09:05Speaker 1 Yep, and then there's always that paranoid that they're gonna wake up and walk in or whatever 09:09Speaker 2 But it's just like when it becomes schedule, it's just loses it. It just loses it. But yeah, for me, definitely sex starts before the bedroom. I'm not someone who's just going to be aroused because you've flopped out your penis. That doesn't talk for me, buddy, Yes. 09:24Speaker 1 It doesn't work. I mean for some it does like it just doesn't. 09:27Speaker 2 It's just doing that. It's just like this thing that's just like flopping there. It's just doesn't do it. 09:33Speaker 1 My friend said to me, your husband came up and said, hey, baby, have you seen this lately? And she said, yeah, I see it all the time. What? Come on, you can do better than that. 09:43Speaker 2 Pack it away, buddy,. 09:45Speaker 1 Put a little bit more effort in. But if someone is struggling to have this discussion with a medical professional, like if they feel like they've done what they can on their own and they want a bit of extra help, what do you suggest they do to get the ball rolling. 09:58Speaker 2 I would suggest if you want to speak to your GP about it, finding maybe like a woman's health GP to start with. A lot of unfortunately, gps aren't really comfortable with having this conversation. I've seen a lot of patients say, tried to bring this up in the past and I didn't really get much answers or help, and that kind of shut them down or made them feel embarrassed. So I think having that conversation with someone who has experience in the area is going to make you feel a lot more comfortable and you're going to get the results that you want. So I would start by finding a GP with experience and then just letting them know I'm not feeling myself, I'm not feeling connected, I don't feel like having sex anymore. Is there something medically happening, and then the doctor will just take it from there. They'll ask you all the questions and they will guide the consultation based on what they think is appropriate. A good GP will make you feel comfortable, ask the right questions, and give you the support that you need. 10:58Speaker 1 Yeah. WhenI started researching libido. I actually realized that I don't know what it is. We talk about it like it's a physical thing in our bodies. Yeah that you can like point to, yeah, point of like that's where my libido lives. But yeah, so really I don't know what it is other than it's the urge to have sex. But it is a lot more than that. We are pretty complicated beings us, ladies, and can I also say too that, like, if you don't want to have sex anymore and you're very comfortable with that like, Thats fine! There is no one telling you that you have to have sex to be you know, I don't know, af functioning human, Like, you can live without it if that's your choice, and you're very happy. 11:32Speaker 2 With that too, And a lot of people are and choose to them. 11:36Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly, like and that's totally fine. But like, can I say for my LGBTQI mates, And this is not saying that they are all like this, because we're all different, but they seem to be a lot better at engaging in sex but also just talking about it with each other, like grown ass humans who have once and needs and they're happy to like discuss that and put it out there. 11:58Speaker 2 I don't know whether that's it is a thing I don't definitely see. Like I find with a lot of my heterosexual female friends that sex often feels transactional. It's like, oh, it's just another to do this job to do it's like a job something get over with, all right done? You know, Yeah, that's amazing, jeez, Claire your winning. What we actually crave is that engagement, that emotional foreplay, that communication and touch that isn't really goal driven or like a tick off the list. And you're right, because a lot of the lgbtqi I folk. They seem to have more open conversations about sex, not because they're magically better at it, they probably are. 12:41Speaker 3 But. 12:43Speaker 2 Because their relationships often require more conscious communication from the start, and they've had to define what intimacy means to them rather than just following a script. And that's something I guess everyone can learn from, like having those open, honest conversations saying this is what it looks like for me. 13:02Speaker 1 I guess too when we're talking about libido in women. When we talk about men, for example, and we know that there are, you know, medical interventions for them, like rectile dysfunction pills, but there's this idea that if a man loses his ability to get or maintain an erection, that there is a problem, that there is a medical issue, and so him not being able to get an erection is an issue. But for women, we don't have that equivalent. So, like, I wonder, what are the medical benefits for us to have our libidos fully functioning? Like I know that there was some research recently that suggested that masturbation was good for you when you're in menopause, that it had benefits, But I'm not sure if we have an equivalent of a erectile dysfunction relating to a man being physically healthy as opposed to us not having a libido and not being physically healthy. 13:53Speaker 2 We have that hyperactive sexual desire disorder. So there is a term HSDD, and there is treatment for that for females who have low libido if they meet the criteria. But I don't know whether or not as females there is that added benefit medically from orgasms. I'm sure in the moment there is maybe mental health. Maybe mental health. Yeah, we'll have to look into that. It's interesting, definitely worth a chat. 14:21Speaker 1 Yeah. Next, doctor Eva Jackson's going to tell us more about where a libido actually lives, how to wake it up if it's been snooz’in a while, and what things we know about both medical and non medical approaches to help. Okay, today's expert is doctor Eva Jackson. She is a sexual health physician, and we started our chat by asking her what even is a libido? Now, Eva, I think we want to start off by at first kind of establishing what a libido even is, because, like, if there's something going on with our bodies, often we can point to the spot and go right, that is where the problem is. But when we talk about issues with our libido, we might think it might be in our vagina, but a lot of it's in our head. And so I wanted to just get a definition from you before we go any further. What is our libido? Does it exist as a physical structure, like what is it? 15:19Speaker 3 I guess in medicine, libido is something that we can divide into two parts. So we've got desire, so the one thing to have sex, and then there's the arousal part, and that's the physical part where you know, you get your palpitations, you get the tingling in your vagina, you get the wetness, and they can come together, but they can be separate issues as well too, And libido can be a little bit difficult to, you know, to understand, and often when I've got someone in front of me, I've got to actually ask them, well, what are you missing? I think it's different for everybody when you're talking about libido, and it's really important to really pin down what the problem is because it can mean a lot of things to a lot of people, and in the end, the whole full definition, you know, doesn't really apply to that individual person. 16:10Speaker 1 Well, can we even talk about using the word libido, because that word was coined quite a long time ago by Sigmund Freud, and many people now say that perhaps it's a little oversimplified, It ignores a lot of societal things, cultural factors, it lacks a fair bit of scientific evidence as well, and that it might sort of overemphasize sex itself in all of this rather than the desire part of it. Would you say that maybe it's time to rethink even using the word libido. 16:38Speaker 3 Yeah, before you mentioned it to me earlier, I sort of thought, well, libido is a word that I see, but we tend not to use a lot of. The original Freudian libido was based on sex, was that the motivation to have sex. But I think Freud sort of expanded his definition somewhat for just the motivation for life and general happiness. I think sometimes men, when they come in and they say they've got low libido, they tend to have a lot more problems with motivation for other things as well, not just libido. But when women come in and specifically say I've lost my libido, got low libidio, they really are talking about just lacking the motivation to want to have sex. So libido I don't like pure definitions. It doesn't work for me, especially now being such a multicultural community. You know, you can sit down with somebody and they use the word because they hear it, but they haven't quite understood it, and it's really what that means to you. Like I said, I prefer to use the word desire because that has connotations of want as opposed to a whole lot of other things libido might encompass. People might think it's sex, people might just think it's dysfunction and in some other way. 17:58Speaker 1 What can we talk about finding issues that we would then take to our doctor and say that I've lost my libido or I've got an issue with my libido. When someone comes in and says those things, are there tests that come to mind that can help people understand where they are physiologically or is this more of a something for our therapist to talk through, Like what sort of tests or medical intervention do we look at when someone comes in and says, I've got a problem with my libido? 18:26Speaker 3 So I guess we're really talking here about cis women. A lot of women when they come in saying you know, they've got a lot of libido, is that they actually don't feel like sex with their partner. And then it's understanding what's going on. There's certainly you want to ask a lot about what's happening sexually, what's happening about their relationship, work, you know, things that are going on around them, and then of course those physical issues as well. Is there genital pain, deep pain? Is there, you know, a lack of lubrication, what's actually going on? Depending on what the actual issue is, there may be tests. A lot of women go directly to hormones, especially if they're older. So am I sort of premenopausal? Am my menopausal? Is that going to affect me? And that might be worth some investigations, And of course if there's pain and other physical issues there may also be some investigations for that as well too. And of course if there are some sort of chronic diseases that may affect particularly arousal, so arousal being usually whilst women will define their arousal as really not lubricating very much, it's a bit more difficult to have sex. But often there are a lot of things going on around that don't have anything to do with a physical problem and then maybe it's more sort of talking it through. 19:51Speaker 1 What would you say the most common reasons are for women to either lose interest in that desire or to have issues with desiring sex. 20:02Speaker 3 I think the most common reason is being in a long term relationship. So the longer you're with a partner, the less spontaneous desire that you know, women tend to have. And I think it's that sort of Hollywood kind of sex sort of coming through in that when we first meet someone, that's all very exciting and there's a lot of chemicals going around us that sort of allows spontaneous desire just oh my god, I want it now, you know, and let's do it. It all works. So the thing is the longer you're with somebody that doesn't happen as much. It holds true for men. Men are a bit simpler in that respect, I guess is that there have an on off switch and that arousal is spontaneous. But for women there's a lot of, can be, a lot of other things that have to be right, you know, before they have spontaneous desire or not even spontaneous sort of a desire that's brought on that actually tells you, yeah, sex would be really nice right now. And I think a lot of people still believe that if they love someone, if they in the presence of someone they enjoy, that they should just have that arousal in them and that desire for them, which doesn't necessarily hold true. 21:16Speaker 1 Well, can we talk about that, because you've mentioned spontaneous desire a few times, and that is if you could explain what spontaneous desire is and then how there's this idea that maybe women are more reactive desire based rather than spontaneous. 21:31Speaker 3 So a spontaneous desire is just that you look at your partner or a someone, I want to have sex, and you've got the physical feelings on the inside that say, yes, let's do this now. And I think the longer you are with someone that doesn't necessarily hold true. It's just some spontaneous desire is really just looking and saying, yeah, that would be nice. And I think a lot of women would like to be more like men in that sort of way, Like. 21:58Speaker 1 It sounds easier, does a bit. 22:01Speaker 3 Yeah. The problem is I think in the beginning it's cultural. You know, once upon a time, you know, we weren't meant to have a libido women one hundred years ago. It's like that was women are meant to want to have sex, So now you're normal, but now we're supposed to want to have it, and suddenly you're not normal when you don't want to have it. So yeah, it is very culturally defined what's normal and what's not, and there's not as far as I'm concerned, really there's not an abnormal. It's really what you need right now and how can we make that better for you. 22:35Speaker 1 I wanted to speak to you too about the fact that there seems to be a lot of people in our social media feeds that claim they have the answer to fixing our libidos. That could be anything from acupuncture, pressure points, nasal sprays. We see the Kardashians have, you know, got lines of things that they are promoting as being libido fixes. What should we be aware of when it comes to looking at helping our sexual desires and a lot of the things that are maybe being marketed at us as solutions. 23:06Speaker 3 First thing is safety. You want to know if you're get to take a product, at least it's safe. If it doesn't do anything, you want it to be safe. There's a lot of placeebo. In these things, you buy something, it works initially because you believe it's going to work, and then it doesn't. Belief is really important when it comes to something like libido. I think like a lot of libido really has to do with communication. If you're in a long term monogamous relationship, if that's what we're talking about here, a lot of it is to do with the communication with your partner. Testosterone is usually the thing that women talk to me a lot about, which is a possibility in older women who have hit menopaude, and that's available for women if you know that you have a sort of what we call a hypo desire sort of disorder. It's not really appropriate for younger women, and it really is. Again, it's really communication and understanding what you need to improve your libido. 24:07Speaker 1 Well, can we talk about one thing. I saw a neuroscientist on my social media feed claiming that women getting just one extra hour of sleep a night increases her libido by fourteen percent. Now I do not know on what research he has based this claim on, but would you say that women getting more sleep does in fact help libido? 24:30Speaker 3 So I had a look at that and it comes from it. I think it was twenty fourteen or twenty eighteen paper. Well, extra sleep would help a lot of things. It certainly helps your energy levels and just your ability to do a lot of things during that day. So I certainly agree if you get good sleep, it was going to help. 24:50Speaker 1 There are lots of women online now who seem very concerned that maybe the oral contraceptive pill might be interrupting their libido. Do we have any research that proves that or disproves that? 25:02Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, so there is there is research. The thing about the oral contraceptive pill is that it increases something called serum hormone binding globulin in your body. And as the name suggests, it binds hormone and so therefore your hormone is not available to you, and in particular, it binds testosterone. Women only have a tiny amount of testosterone. So for example, we say women normal amounts of testosterone is less than two for women, whereas men, you know, you're upwards of ten to ten to thirty, right, So we have tiny amounts. So for some women who have particular receptor types need more testosterone than others to get all of the testosterone functioning. Cells working, So that is true. 25:56Speaker 1 So you've mentioned a few times that a lot of the issues that you encounter with patients is probably a lack of communication, and that does often spring from being in a long term relationship. So would you say that therapy can actually help libido? 26:13Speaker 3 Yes, it can, and I think therapy with the partner is really important. You have a lot of women coming in who want to work on it alone because they believe it's their problem. The thing is, it's a couple's issue. The thing that reduces women's libido or desire the most is actually a long term relationship. So the easiest way to increase your desire is to get a new partner, and that's not really, it might be for some women they may actually need a new partner, but for a lot of women that's not an option. You need your partner to be involved to understand what's going on, because you know, people don't talk about sex very often, and so you go into a relationship it's all good sexually, you have your spontaneous arousal and fireworks go. But you're together for a while and it's not spontaneous anymore, and then it's the understanding of what she has to understand what she needs. That's hard enough as it is, let alone trying to communicate that to a partner, and we fall into these sexual scripts where we tend to do the same thing sort of every time, and it's very hard to get out of that. So, for example, you know, like I said, men often have more spontaneous arousal. They'll get home from work and partner is there and hey, she's pretty, let's do it. Whereas for her, it's not quite like that. In a lot of circumstances, and women may have spontaneous desire, but a lot of women may actually start their their sexual encounter somewhere else. Some women need emotional intimacy, you know, so they need shells of love and encouragement to get into that cycle. Some women just need to be touched, right, and maybe he's learned to touch her and ways that are really counter productive for her. But it's too hard to say otherwise and to sort of redirect the touching to what she prefers. And some women actually will start at orgasm before they have any spontaneous arousal kind of I'm difficult to understand if you're not one of those women. But you know, there's some women who will say, Okay, we'll just get into it, because I know once I get going, I have my orgasms. Then yeah, okay, I'm feeling it now, let's do this again. And of course there's those usual things of time factors, stress, children, needing a quiet space, needing to wind down. 28:40Speaker 1 What would you say to someone who is listening to this right now and thinks, yeah, I'm really struggling with this. What are the first steps that she can take? And when should she look at getting professional medical help with libido? 28:54Speaker 3 I think if she's got chronic disease, diseases on medication, it's worthwhile talking to the doctor. You know, is there a medication I'm on that's not helping. Often the main culprit can be antidepressants, you know, SSRIs that tends to reduce your desire, and if for a lot of women that can really produce an orgasmia of difficulty reaching orgasm, or not reaching orgasm at all, because it blocks a lot of pathways in that respect. Might be something as simple as changing medication perhaps, but if you’re otherwise fit and healthy, I think if you can actually talk to your partner, that's a really good start. And that's a really difficult, difficult conversation to have. And of course we're really talking about relationships that are respectful and loving as well. If you're talking about relationships that are coercive or violent or just have some bad history, I think that's another sort of route of counseling as well. 30:02Speaker 1 So Mariam does seem that communication seems to be the key here if your lack of libido or desire is not influenced by a chronic disease. But why is this so scary to talk about? Do you think? 30:13Speaker 2 I think as we were never taught how so, like most of us grew up with silence around sex and intimacy. Maybe we had some anatomy classes in school, maybe a warning about pregnancy or but there was never any teaching about pleasure connection or emotional intimacy. So when we try to talk about it as adults, it feels like we're vulnerable and we're exposing something deeply personal. Maybe we should be ashamed about it, maybe it will be judged for it And there's that fear of rejection or am I going to hurt this person's feelings because they're not providing for me the way that I want them too. 30:51Speaker 1 What if they like something that I don't like, is that going to be a deal breaker? 30:54Speaker 2 But the irony is as we try to avoid it, the bigger that gap comes. And the couples who thrive aren't the ones to have perfect sex lives. They're the ones who can talk about it without that shame or that fear of judgment. So I would just start small, sit down and say, hey, we need to talk about sex, or you can start with hay, I miss feeling close to Can we try something different, Keep it curious, not critical, because at the end of the day, communication is foreplay. Well it is for me anyway. Yeah, and in my limited experience, it is how desire grows. 31:30Speaker 1 Yeah, okay, yeah, let's start talking friends. You never know what the outcome might be. Might be something might be an orgasm, might be an orgasm, and that would be fabulous. 31:38Speaker 2 That would be fabulous. 31:40Speaker 1 Next, Catherine isn't ready for babies like situationally or financially, but she cannot stop thinking about it. We’ll get some help for her next. Okay, doc, do you think it's quick consult time? The doctor will see you now. Just through here to consult room one. 32:03Speaker 2 Thanks for waiting. How can I help you? 32:05Speaker 1 Remember. If you want to get a question to the good doctor here, you can do it by sending us an email well at Mamamia dot com dot AU. You can do what Catherine did and hit us up on our Instagram DMS, or you can do it by the waiting room. It's an online form that you can find the link to in our show notes. Very easy. I get Catherine's filling that clock a tick in want some advice on what to do to drown it out for a bit. Here we go, she wrote. 32:26Speaker 4 I'm twenty seven and my partner is thirty seven. We're just about to finish building our first home together and are wanting to start a family in the near future. However, the prospect of not being able to get pregnant gives me great anxiety almost daily. I have no family history of trouble getting pregnant or any reason to be concerned, but it hangs over my head most days. I'm almost tempted to start trying straight away, even though we ideally would like to wait a few years to settle ourselves financially, simply just to know one way or the other if I can or can't get pregnant. My partner suggested maybe it's worth speaking to my doctor and getting some tests done to find out if we do have anything to be concerned about. My question is what should I be asking to get tested for to understand my fertility? And is it just me that should be getting tests done or should my partner also be looking into it? 33:12Speaker 2 Okay, First of all, you are not alone in this sphere. I see so many women in their twenties. We're thinking about babies one day, not right now, but the what if I can't get pregnant voices living rent free in their brain, And it makes sense. Fertility is one of those topics that gets whispered about. It's rarely explained properly, and the horror stories always travel further than the normal ones. Here's the deal. You're twenty seven. You've got no red flags from what you've told me, medically, no family history suggesting issues, so on paper, your body's not secretly plotting against you. But anxiety we know it doesn't care about logic. So I always tell people preconception screens. You know, whether it's a year or two or three prior is always a good idea. Baseline tests might help settle your mind and that's completely reasonable. For you,hat generally means a general health a reproductive screen. We'll look at your ovulation patterns, and sometimes we may do an AMH level, which gives a rough idea of your ovarian reserve. Saying that it's rough because it's not a crystal ball. 34:21Speaker 1 No one goes into one, two, three, four, how many eggs are in this. 34:26Speaker 2 It doesn't tell us if you can or can't get pregnant. It just gives context. So you could have really high numbers and still have issues with fertility. You can have really small numbers and have really great egg quality. And fertility is a team sport. I need to say it takes two to tango. If you're exploring this early, it absolutely makes sense for your partner to be included. A simple Semon analysis is cheap, quick and gives a lot of great information, and also a general health check with your partner is also required. Men's age does matter as well. We pretend sperm stays young forever, but as men get older, motility, shape and DNA quality can dip a bit. Your partner is thirty seven, still very much in the fertile age range, but if you're doing checks he definitely needs to be part of the picture too. Most importantly, I would say, don't feel pressured to start trying just because you're ready to silence the What if at twenty seven you're biologically in a really favorable window. If some basic tests give you peace of mind, fantastic, go ahead and do them, but bring your partner into that conversation o future parenthood is a joint project, it's not solo investigation. And remember, worrying about fertility doesn't mean something is wrong. It means you're human. You're planning a life chapter and your brain's trying to get ahead of the story. So chat with your GP. But if you feel like this anxiety's just kind of popping up day to day, I think that's also worth exploring with your doctor. 35:55Speaker 1 Yeah, maybe doing some tests will put your mind at ease, but bear in mind too that sometimes doing those tests might increase your anxiety. 36:04Speaker 2 Yeah, especially if you know we uncover something. 36:06Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, so you might want to just factor that in yeah too. All right, Catherine, Hopefully that has answered your question today. But remember we love that you spend time with us here on well and we love getting all your advice. But it is general. The info you've heard here today is general, not specific. For you. Make sure you learn from it. Use it for the list of questions you take to your own doctors to sort out what's right for you.

Rebuilding solar manufacturing in the U.S. is not just about capital or policy. It is about making the right bets at the right time.It comes down to timing, experience, and the critical decisions.Alex Zhu has spent nearly two decades inside the global solar manufacturing system—from the early rise of Chinese production to failed U.S. factory attempts, and now to building one of the few solar cell manufacturing facilities in America through ES Foundry.In this conversation, Alex explains why he focused on solar cells instead of modules. Module assembly scaled quickly after the IRA. Cell manufacturing remained limited, even though it sits at the center of the supply chain. But that gap is precisely where Alex recognized his greatest strength.Experience.But the ensuing decisions (bets) he made carry real risk.He is betting that the U.S. cannot sustain a domestic solar industry without cell production. He is also building on proven PERC technology, even as the global market moves toward TOPCon. And he is relying on speed, execution, and hard-won experience to make that strategy work.We also get into how his past shaped these decisions, what has changed since earlier U.S. factory failures, how the IRA shifted the economics, and what it actually takes to build a factory, from permitting and infrastructure to workforce and community impact.Expect to learn:

In this episode, I'm speaking with Caroline Alan, the self-proclaimed "Mineral Geek." She shares her history of serious health problems, including gut inflammation, periodontal disease with bone loss in her teeth, recurring sinus infections, brain fog so bad she left her corporate career, and lifelong insomnia.  But her health completely transformed thanks to a chance suggestion from her business partner to try liquid minerals. Caroline is now passionate about sharing the connections she's found between mineral depletion, replenishment, and cellular function. She's also a soon-to-be published author; her book, The Mineral Reset: The Essential Guide to Replenishing Your Body and Restoring Your Health, will be available at the end of April.

No guests. No framework. Just the voice that comes through when Dr. G goes still enough to listen. In this special channeled episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez closes his eyes, opens his heart, and speaks directly from the intuitive voice he uses in his most powerful one-on-one sessions — the one that makes people cry because it goes straight to the deepest wound. What came through is a message about the one thing modern medicine has almost completely forgotten: that your capacity to give and receive love is not separate from your health. It is your health. What this episode covers:  • Why your cells are directly tied to your ability to love — and what shuts that down at the biological level  • The real reason people stay sick, stay stuck, and stay disconnected — and the only responsibility you actually have to change it  • Why no disease can live in a body that is fully in resonance with love — and what that actually means in practice If you've tried everything and still feel like something is missing — this is the episode that points to what it is.
