Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the digital world our children grow up in, creating opportunities for learning and connection—but also ushering in complex new challenges for safety, attention, identity, and mental health. In this timely episode, we sit down with Dr. Scott Kollins, Chief Medical Officer at Aura and a nationally recognized expert in ADHD, digital health, and youth mental wellness.Together, we explore how AI-driven platforms represent a significant evolution from earlier forms of digital media. Dr. Kollins explains how algorithmic personalization, generative content, and immersive engagement tools influence children's attention patterns, behavior, and even neurological development. He highlights emerging concerns surrounding AI-generated characters and influencers designed to mimic friendship and connection—raising important considerations for social development, empathy, and identity formation in childhood.The conversation also delves into the growing difficulty children face in distinguishing real from artificial experiences online, and how this blurring of reality can shape emotional regulation, perception, and worldview. Dr. Kollins discusses the mental health implications of AI systems that feel responsive or “alive” to young users, and what it means to parent in an era where digital platforms may seem to be constantly listening.This episode offers an essential, research-grounded understanding of the digital landscape parents are navigating today, and provides guidance for supporting children's well-being as technology continues to evolve at unprecedented speed.For more information: Join the Study: Click herehttps://www.aura.com/ https://meetcircle.com/The Parent Coach: We're launching The Parent Coach—your new go-to place for instant parenting support.

In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Anurag Singh, a leading physician-researcher and Chief Medical Officer at Timeline, to discuss a groundbreaking discovery: the gut-muscle-immune axis. While we often focus on muscle mass for longevity, new research published in Nature Aging reveals that our immune system undergoes a similar decline, with youthful sentinel cells (naive CD8 T-cells) dropping by 75% as we reach age 50. Dr. Singh explains how mitophagy —the targeted recycling of damaged mitochondria—is the key to "rewiring" an aging immune system to fight infection 20% more effectively. In this episode: Alzheimer's of the Muscle: Why sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is often misdiagnosed as simple aging. The Power of Urolithin A: How this postbiotic compound induces mitophagy to increase mitochondrial abundance by 20% in just 28 days.

Healthcare is one of the most complex—and misunderstood—industries in the world. Few people explain it better than Dr. Eric Bricker. In this episode, we sit down with the physician, entrepreneur, and Chief Medical Officer behind AHealthcareZ, whose viral whiteboard sessions have become must-watch content for healthcare leaders. Dr. Bricker traces his unconventional path from internal medicine to entrepreneur to healthcare economist and reveals how financial incentives, not just clinical decisions, shape outcomes across hospitals, insurers, employers, and emerging health tech. We unpack why healthcare feels so opaque to patients and employers alike, what's broken in insurance and billing, and why misaligned incentives continue to drive cost and complexity. Dr. Bricker also makes the case for transparency, stronger primary care, and smarter use of technology as levers for real change. This conversation is essential listening for executives, clinicians, benefits leaders, founders, and policymakers who want to move beyond surface-level reform and understand how healthcare actually works—and how it can work better.

Meet Clay Johnston, MD, PhD, MPH, Cofounder & Chief Medical Officer, Harbor Health. They discuss why so many smart care redesign efforts end up as…yet another white paper. Clay talks about his “been there, rebuilt that” experience: you can absolutely reengineer pathways to reduce unnecessary procedures, shift work to the right team members, use tech for follow-ups, and improve outcomes. The problem is that in classic fee-for-service, the system often pays handsomely for the stuff you're trying to avoid (unnecessary utilization) and barely pays for what actually keeps people well (coaching, check-ins, prevention, navigation).

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Brendan McCarthy—Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Tempe, Arizona—continues his in-depth progesterone series with a deep dive into reverse responders and an often-overlooked mechanism: hormone sulfation. Many women take progesterone expecting better sleep, calmer moods, and reduced anxiety—yet feel more alert, only mildly calmer, or see no benefit at all. This episode explains why that doesn't mean progesterone is wrong for you. Dr. McCarthy breaks down: What progesterone reverse responding really is The difference between 5-alpha reductase pathways and sulfation How the brain uses sulfation to buffer stress and trauma Why progesterone may be stored instead of calming the nervous system The role of chronic stress, PTSD, perimenopause, and hormone volatility Why higher doses can make things worse How thoughtful, low-dose, individualized hormone therapy actually works Dr. Brendan McCarthy is the founder and Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Arizona. With over two decades of experience, he's helped thousands of patients navigate hormonal imbalances using bioidentical HRT, nutrition, and root-cause medicine. He's also taught and mentored other physicians on integrative approaches to hormone therapy, weight loss, fertility, and more.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor talk with pediatric eating disorder specialist Dr. Julie O'Toole (Kartini Clinic) and pediatric obesity expert Dr. Evan Nadler about what childhood obesity really is: a biologic, metabolic disease—not a willpower problem and not a failure of parenting.They explore how excess weight, constant hunger, and disordered eating in kids are often signs of underlying metabolic dysfunction and genetics—and why the old “eat less, move more” advice can do real harm, especially when children are shamed or restricted in the name of “health.”Key Questions AnsweredWhy is childhood obesity a metabolic disease, not a behavior problem?How are obesity and eating disorders deeply connected instead of opposite extremes?What role do GLP-1 medications play in children—and how do we protect against under-fueling?When should parents suspect genetic drivers like hyperphagia or MC4 mutations?How can medical treatment for obesity actually reduce disordered eating behaviors?When does excess weight become a medical issue requiring metabolic evaluation—not another diet?Key TakeawaysWeight is a symptom. Childhood obesity is often a sign of metabolic dysfunction, not overeating.Obesity & eating disorders overlap. Restriction can trigger disordered eating; disordered eating can worsen obesity.“Eat less, move more” harms. Shame-based approaches delay treatment and increase risk of eating disorders.GLP-1s work metabolically, not just through appetite suppression. Kids still need consistent fueling.Genetics matter. Single-gene differences can drive severe childhood hunger & rapid weight gain.Not treating is harm. Avoiding obesity care violates first, do no harm.Dr. Cooper's Actionable TipsIf your child is gaining weight or constantly hungry, request metabolic labs (insulin, glucose, lipids, liver, hormones).If the doctor only says “eat less, move more,” ask: “How are we evaluating metabolism and genetics?”On GLP-1s? Monitor for under-fueling (skipped meals, low energy, food anxiety) and intervene promptly.Notable Quote“Not treating childhood obesity is doing harm. It's a disease, not a lifestyle choice.” — Dr. Evan NadlerLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: Fat Science WebsiteEpisodes & Show Archive: Cooper Center Podcast PageEducation & Metabolic Resources: coopermetabolic.com/resourcesSubmit a Show Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.comEmail Dr. Cooper Directly: dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comConnect with Our GuestsDr. Evan P.

We've been told for decades that fertility is all about age — but what if that's only part of the story?In this deeply insightful and science-backed conversation, we uncover why biological age — not chronological age — may be the most important factor influencing fertility, egg quality, embryo development, and pregnancy outcomes.In this amazing episode, I am joined by Dr Katherine Zagone! Dr. Katherine Zagone, ND, Chief Medical Officer and co-founder of Clockwize, has been supporting women and couples easily conceive their healthiest babies for almost a decade. Afterhaving her own successrewinding her biological clock, she is now on a mission to support women everywhere in having healthy babies on their timeline. She's excited to bring effective science, a warm heart, and an industry-changing approach to the world through Clockwize, Inc.Biological age reflects the health of your cells, your DNA, and your epigenetic expression. And unlike your birthdate, biological age can be measured — and even reversed.In this episode, we explore groundbreaking research and real clinical experience showing that:Women who improve their cellular health can improve fertility outcomesYounger women with advanced biological age may struggle more than older women with healthier cellsEpigenetics, methylation, toxins, stress, and trauma directly influence reproductive healthFertility is an early indicator of overall health and longevityYou'll hear how biological age testing works (using blood-based epigenetic markers), what methylation really means for fertility, and why conditions like MTHFR mutations, inflammation, mold exposure, and chronic stress can quietly accelerate the biological clock.

Having a mental health condition, including depression or substance use disorder, does not automatically mean that a physician, nurse or other healthcare professional is unable to provide patient care in a competent, ethical and professional manner. Chris Bundy, MD, MPH, FAPA, FASAM, and other leaders of state-based professional health programs (PHPs) support physicians and other healthcare professionals as they navigate mental health conditions and help find supportive paths back to practice once their illness is managed. In this episode of Caring Greatly, Dr. Bundy talks about how PHPs work, his involvement with the Washington PHP and the Federation of State PHP. He shares some common misperceptions about mental health and substance use, and why the stress and trauma-exposure inherent with working in healthcare environments may create unique vulnerabilities for care team members. Dr. Bundy explains some of the challenges and limitations of PHPs, and discusses how many programs have expanded their purview to support a broader group of healthcare professionals beyond physicians. Today, many PHPs offer support to pharmacists, dentists, physicians' assistants and nurses. Dr. Bundy is Executive Medical Director of the Washington Physicians Health Program (WPHP) and Chief Medical Officer of the Federation of State Physician Health Programs (FSPHP). Board-certified in adult and geriatric psychiatry as well as addiction medicine, he holds faculty appointments as a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Washington School of Medicine and Clinical Associate Professor at the Washington State University Elson S.

And as you see that signal, the goal is [to] go refuel. Let me use this opportunity to go refuel. Perimenopause is the time to start getting some things in place to refuel: changing your diet, incorporating more protein, but also fiber. Looking at what you may be depleted in to refuel.”  “I want to really change that narrative of what we do for our health, how we think of ourselves in health, and start those conversations earlier.”  “I think resilience is key.

Have you taken progesterone expecting calm, better sleep, or relief from PMS… only to feel more anxious, wired, or worse overall? You are not a failure—and progesterone is not failing you. Your body is responding exactly as physiology dictates. The issue is how progesterone is being delivered and metabolized. In this episode, Dr. McCarthy explains: What it means to be a progesterone reverse responder How progesterone normally supports mood and brain chemistry through allopregnanolone Why some women experience paradoxical anxiety, insomnia, or agitation The role of the 5-alpha reductase pathway in progesterone metabolism Why oral progesterone can overwhelm the brain in certain women How PCOS, topical testosterone, stress, insulin resistance, and ultra-processed diets can amplify reverse responses Why kinetics and delivery method matter just as much as dosage Dr. Brendan McCarthy is the founder and Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Arizona. With over two decades of experience, he's helped thousands of patients navigate hormonal imbalances using bioidentical HRT, nutrition, and root-cause medicine. He's also taught and mentored other physicians on integrative approaches to hormone therapy, weight loss, fertility, and more.

On November 7, Commonwealth Club World Affairs of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, will host The Asian American Foundation's (TAAF) first-ever AAPI Youth Mental Health Summit. Under the theme “Sparking Solutions Together,” the summit will convene hundreds of experts, advocates, funders, and business executives to address the urgent and often overlooked mental health challenges facing Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) youth. From 2018 through 2022, suicide was the leading cause of death among Asian Americans aged 15–24, and the second leading cause of death among Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. Yet despite being deeply impacted by the nation's mental health crisis, AAPI youth remain largely invisible in the national mental health conversation, and the data needed to understand their mental health is scarce at best. To fill the gap, TAAF released "Beyond the Surface" in December 2024, the most comprehensive study to date on AAPI youth mental health, which revealed: Nearly 1 in 2 AAPI youth screen positive for moderate depression; 1 in 3 have planned or attempted suicide; Stigma, family pressure, and silence keep many from seeking help; Only 53 percent feel comfortable talking with their parents; Just 1 in 4 have accessed formal care; and 46 percent have never seen a mental health provider. Building on these findings, the November 7 summit will bring together leading experts to spark dialogue on breaking stigma, closing gaps in care, and exploring how community partners and technology are reshaping the ways young people seek and receive support.  Join us online to hear from: Midori Francis, Actor, "Grey's Anatomy" Ryan Alexander Holmes Owin Pierson, Creator and Mental Health Advocate Lisa Ling, Journalist Noopur Agarwal, VP of Social Impact, MTV Norman Chen, CEO, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) Philip Yun, Co-President and Co-CEO, Commonwealth Club World Affairs Rushika Fernandopulle, MD, Practicing Physician; Co-Founder and Former CEO, Iora Health; TAAF Board Member Juliana Chen, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Cartwheel Perry Chen,Director of Programs and Partnerships, Behavioral Health at Blue Shield of California Rachel Miller, Founder & CEO, Closegap Meena Srinivasan, Founding Executive Director, Transformative Educational Leadership Ayesha Meer, Executive Director, Asian Mental Health Collective Henry Ha, Program Director, Community Youth Center of San Francisco Anne Saw, PhD, HOPE Program Reid Bowman, MPH, CHES, Outreach & Program Manager, UCA Waves Rupesh Shah, COO of Crisis Text Line Tone Va'i, LCSW, Clinician, Samoan Community Development Center Amy Grace Lam, PhD, Chief Program Strategist, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christine Yang, ASW, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christina Yu, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor, Korean Community Center of East Bay William Tsai, PhD, Associate Professor, New York University Cindy H.

The national spotlight on food and chronic disease management is intensifying, especially given the momentum of the “Make America Healthy Again” movement. This presents an opportunity to finally move the needle on incorporating healthy food and nutrition into care delivery — but our traditional healthcare system is not set up to do this well, or at scale. Healthcare leaders need to learn from the experts who have been doing this work successfully in their communities. That's why this week, live from Advisory Board's Nashville Summit, host Abby Burns speaks with Tomi Ogundimu, Chair of the Board of DC Greens, a nonprofit based in Washington, D.C., and Angela Fitch, MD, Cofounder and Chief Medical Officer of Knownwell, a comprehensive primary care and metabolic health clinic. Our guests will share what it looks like to put the principles of “food as medicine” into practice and how the traditional delivery system can adapt to help realize these principles at scale.
