Podcasts about Chronic

Guess who's biz-zack! We hebben een nieuwe aflevering klaar staan, aflevering 49 die gaat over het debuut album van Dr.Dre, The Chronic genaamd. Dr Dre's The ChronicVoor dat Dre met zijn eerste album kwam had hij natuurlijk al met meerdere formaties projecten uitgebracht. Naamsbekendheid vergaard, ervaring in de studio opgedoken en gesleuteld aan een nieuw imago. Daarom is het misschien ook niet eerlijk om de impact van het album te meten aan het feit dat het een debuut plaat is. De kwaliteit van Dr DreNu terugkijkende op zijn carriere, kan je 1 ding wel met zekerheid zeggen, en dat is de kwaliteit die Dre bied. Je kunt een beat van hem niet nice vinden, de lyrics niet diepgenoeg, maar de kwaliteit van de sound is altijd van de bovenste plank. Eigenlijk al reden genoeg om een keer te luisteren naar het album.

If you've ever felt like you need a specific diet, program, supplement, or piece of equipment to get results, this episode is for you.In today's Red Delta Project live Q&A, I break down one of the biggest “progress traps” in fitness: dependence. The more you rely on external systems, validation, products, or ideologies, the less freedom and control you actually have… and the more likely you are to stay stuck in the fitness rat race.Then we roll straight into Q&A on elbow tendonitis from high-volume pullups, building muscle at calorie maintenance, how tempo and pauses affect hypertrophy, sissy squats, shoulder pain workarounds, autophagy hype, TRT expectations, chronic injury strategy, and more.

Research from Columbia University shows that psychological stress changes a key metabolic hormone, linking emotional strain directly to energy production and overall health People with healthy mitochondria experience a drop in this hormone under stress, while those with mitochondrial dysfunction show an increase — demonstrating how cellular energy capacity shapes stress resilience Chronic stress overstimulates classic stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, disrupting blood sugar control, promoting fat storage, and exhausting your mitochondria — the engines that power every cell Social isolation and loneliness were linked to higher levels of stress-related hormones, suggesting that emotional well-being and physical metabolism are deeply connected Restoring mitochondrial balance through nutrition, regular movement, deep sleep, and meaningful connection helps calm stress chemistry, boost energy, and slow biological aging

In this week's meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Georgina Banks - Autistic, ADHD, chronically ill, and the founder & CEO of AuDHD UK, a suicide-prevention charity reshaping access to diagnosis and support across the UK.Georgina spent nearly a decade searching for answers while doctors dismissed her chronic illness, sensory overwhelm, and burnout as “anxiety.” In today's conversation, she shares how late discovery helped her finally understand her body, her needs, and her mission — and how she turned personal pain into a national effort to save neurodivergent lives and to support hundreds of adults still fighting to be believed.This episode includes a discussion of suicide. Please listen with care.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we stop treating self doubt like a mindset glitch and start seeing it as what it really is, an old protection system that has outlived its job description. Host Sana sits down with hypnotherapist, channel and former elite athletic coach Magdalena Lyle to unpack how childhood conditioning, family dynamics and hidden trauma program the subconscious to keep us small. From boardrooms to bodybuilding stages, Magdalena breaks down why so many high performers look confident on the outside yet quietly spiral in overthinking, imposter syndrome and perfectionism behind the scenes. If you are a founder, executive, athlete or ambitious professional who swings between “I've got this” and “Who do I think I am,” this conversation will give you a straight talking framework to understand your mind's protect and serve system, start reclaiming agency in your body and move toward decisions grounded in intuition instead of fear. This episode speaks to self doubt, leadership confidence, performance anxiety, trauma informed healing and nervous system regulation in real world language, not fluff. About the Guest: Magdalena Lyle is a Queensland based hypnotherapist, channel and mind body practitioner who started her career working with athletes and high performers on physical rigidity, then discovered their real constraints lived in the subconscious. Today she blends hypnotherapy, fascial stretch work and channelled guidance to help executives, entrepreneurs and athletes identify the childhood scripts running their self doubt, release stored tension in the body and rebuild trust in their own intuition. Her work is grounded, direct and focused on restoring personal agency rather than layering more affirmations on top of unresolved fear. Key Takeaways: Self doubt is not a character flaw, it is the mind's protect and serve system still following rules written by a younger, scared version of you. Childhood experiences, including “small” moments like being yelled at for spilling milk, can wire the subconscious to stay quiet, stay small or over perform to avoid judgment. Many executives and athletes wear confidence as a mask at work or on stage, while privately dealing with anxiety, overthinking, migraines, skin issues and emotional burnout. The body keeps score. Chronic tension in the jaw, shoulders or hips often signals a nervous system that has forgotten how to trust and relax, even when the mind says “I'm fine.” Hypnotherapy done through open questioning, not scripts, lets clients enter their own awareness, see the emotional “scene” behind the pattern and discover their own resources for change. Real leadership and performance strength come from integrating intuition, compassion and assertiveness so you are not two different people at work and at home.

Chronic disease now affects 76 percent of American adults, which shows a widening gap between higher healthcare spending and worsening national health. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Chris Turnpaugh to explore why the United States has become so chronically ill and why our current medical model, which excels in acute care, struggles with long-term metabolic and inflammatory conditions. Our discussion focuses on the need for a proactive healthcare system that identifies early patterns instead of waiting for disease to reach a crisis point. We talk about the limitations of traditional blood tests, the importance of understanding subtle dysfunction before it becomes pathology, and how lifestyle and environmental factors shape the progression of chronic illness. Early recognition and root-cause medicine form the foundation of better health outcomes. We also highlight emerging tools that are transforming integrative care, including functional peptides like BPC157 and strategies that support mitochondrial health and cellular energy. Dr. Turnpaugh offers a clear and practical perspective on how healthcare can evolve to improve vitality and help patients thrive throughout the chronic disease era.   Key takeaways: The U.S. healthcare system needs to transition from reactive sick care to proactive chronic disease management to address the country's worsening health statistics. Identifying disease patterns and root causes early-on can prevent full-blown diagnoses and improve patient outcomes. Functional peptides such as BPC157 and the role of inflammation management can significantly impact recovery from musculoskeletal and chronic conditions. Integrated health practices that combine multiple disciplines and focus on the whole person are essential for effective treatment and patient care. Mitochondrial health is crucial for overall wellbeing, influencing everything from chronic disease risk to cognitive health.

You're tired all the time. Your joints ache. Your brain feels foggy. Your stomach is always off. You've been to multiple doctors, run the labs, and everything comes back "normal." So you're told it's stress, or aging, or maybe it's all in your head. It's not. It's chronic inflammation, and it's the hidden thread connecting most long-term diseases, from heart disease and diabetes to Alzheimer's, autoimmune conditions, and even cancer. That's chronic inflammation, and it's happening in your joints, your gut, your brain, your arteries, and your metabolism- quietly, invisibly, for years before symptoms force you to pay attention. You'll learn the 5R framework for gut repair, why sleep is the most underrated anti-inflammatory tool, how to eat to lower inflammation starting today, and which supplements actually move the needle when layered on top of solid habits. If you've been chasing diagnoses, collecting labels, or told your symptoms don't match anything "real," this episode is your roadmap out. Chronic inflammation is measurable, fixable, and under your control once you understand what's feeding it.

Join Tina Baykaner, MD, MPH, HRS Digital Education Committee Vice-Chair, and her guests Mikhael F. El-Chami, MD, FHRS and  Devi G. Nair, MD, FHRS for this week's Lead episode. This article summarizes the worldwide experience retrieving chronically implanted active helix-fixation leadless ventricular pacemakers (the Aveir/Abbott platform) across regulatory clinical trials. The authors assess real-world feasibility, procedural techniques, success rates, and complications of retrieval after long dwell times, demonstrating that devices can be removed safely and effectively even years after implant—up to about 9 years in follow-up. Overall, chronic retrieval success remained high with a low rate of serious adverse events, supporting helix-fixation leadless systems as a manageable long-term pacing strategy when replacement or removal is needed.    Learning Objectives Explain the clinical indications for chronic retrieval of helix-fixation leadless pacemakers and how these differ from tine-fixation platforms.  Summarize the reported worldwide chronic retrieval success rates, implant-duration range, and key procedural or anatomic reasons for retrieval failure.  Identify practical procedural considerations (e.g., docking-button access, retrieval catheter use, imaging support) that improve the likelihood of safe long-term leadless pacemaker removal.   Article for Discussion: Worldwide Chronic Retrieval Experience of the Helix Fixation Leadless Cardiac Paccemaker   Article Authors and Podcast Contributors Article Authors Derek V.

I'm about to say what other health influencers refuse to say. Others in the chronic illness recovery business told me this message was "too risky" for their brand. Or it wasn't "brand aligned". Then, one by one, they jumped on the nervous system regulation bandwagon full of buzz words. And that has creates a lot of problems for people. Here's the truth you need to know: There are no separate systems in your body. Your nervous system isn't broken. Your body is simply reflecting your feelings back to you. In this video, I expose why the recovery industry profits from keeping you stuck in labels and protocols instead of teaching you how to listen to what your body is actually communicating. Join the Release program to speed up your healing from ME/CFS, Chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, MCAS, Post-Vac and other chronic illnesses.

Is everyday stress quietly rewiring your child's brain? Learn how chronic stress reshapes the nervous system, affects emotional regulation, and how small, practical lifestyle changes can protect your child's brain health.Parenting a child whose emotions swing from calm to chaos can feel overwhelming. Everyday pressures—school demands, social tension, family stress—can quietly rewire your child's brain, pushing it into a constant state of survival mode. But the good news? You can change these patterns.In today's episode, we break down how chronic stress affects brain development, why your child may seem "overly reactive" or withdrawn, and practical tools you can use to build emotional resilience and calm.Why does my child overreact to small stressors?Your child's brain is highly responsive to repeated stress, especially those with trauma, neurodivergence, or sensory sensitivities. Chronic stress strengthens fear circuits in the amygdala while weakening prefrontal cortex control, making your child more prone to anxiety, meltdowns, or overreaction.Takeaways:Frequent stress rewires the brain: the more your child experiences stress, the stronger the fear pathways become.Behavior reflects the brain: meltdowns aren't misbehavior—they're signs of an overactive stress response.Small moments add up: transitions, noise, or school pressures can overflow your child's stress cup.Real-Life ExampleJess noticed her son melting down every afternoon. By adding a quiet snack and a two-minute decompression before homework, she saw his meltdowns reduce within a month.How can I tell if my child's nervous system is overstimulated or under-stimulated?Overstimulation looks like constant movement, big emotions, defiance, sleep troubles, and hyper-reactivity. Under-stimulation shows as daydreaming, zoning out, sluggishness, or excessive caffeine use in teens. Both reflect dysregulated stress response patterns.Tips for parents:Observe daily patterns in behavior and energy.Offer micro resets: 1–2 minute stretches, humming, tapping, or deep breathing.Track stressors to notice triggers and early warning signs.Quick CALM™ gives your child fast, simple tools to reset their nervous system and regain emotional control in moments of stress. With easy, science-backed techniques, it helps kids stay grounded, focused, and calm—so you can reduce meltdowns and boost everyday resilience.What can parents do to protect the brain during stressful moments?Regulate first, teach second. Your calm acts as the anchor for your child's nervous system. Predictable routines and lifestyle changes—hydration, sleep, magnesium-rich foods—help balance stress hormones and protect brain structure.Action Steps:Incorporate short, frequent nervous system breaks.Prioritize predictable schedules and safe environments.Co-regulate for connection before correction—behavioral learning happens when your child feels safe.

In the wake of Jeffrey Epstein's death in federal custody, the Bureau of Prisons promised sweeping reforms aimed at preventing another such failure. Those commitments included stricter adherence to suicide-watch protocols, improved staffing and supervision at facilities like the Metropolitan Correctional Center, greater accountability for guard misconduct, and clearer lines of responsibility when inmates are designated as high-risk. Investigations by the DOJ Inspector General laid out glaring institutional failures, from falsified records to exhausted, improperly trained staff working massive overtime. Publicly, the BOP and the Justice Department framed Epstein's death as a catalyst for overdue reform, assuring lawmakers and the public that meaningful structural changes were underway to restore trust in a system that had catastrophically failed a high-profile detainee.Years later, those promised reforms remain largely unrealized. Chronic understaffing persists across the federal prison system, with suicide prevention protocols still inconsistently applied and accountability for leadership failures remaining minimal.

This week we are talking about Pancreatic cancer.  This is a type of cancer that begins as a growth of cells in the pancreas. The pancreas lies behind the lower part of the stomach. It makes enzymes that help digest food and hormones that help manage blood sugar. The most common type of pancreatic cancer is pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. This type begins in the cells that line the ducts that carry digestive enzymes out of the pancreas. Pancreatic cancer rarely is found at its early stages when the chance of curing it is greatest. This is because it often doesn't cause symptoms until after it has spread to other organs. Your health care team considers the extent of your pancreatic cancer when creating your treatment plan. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy or a mix of these. Pancreatic cancer often doesn't cause symptoms until the disease is advanced. When they happen, signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer may include: Belly pain that spreads to the sides or back. Loss of appetite. Weight loss. Yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes, called jaundice. Light-colored or floating stools. Dark-colored urine. Itching. New diagnosis of diabetes or diabetes that's getting harder to control. Pain and swelling in an arm or leg, which might be caused by a blood clot. Tiredness or weakness. It's not clear what causes pancreatic cancer. Doctors have found some factors that might raise the risk of this type of cancer. These include smoking and having a family history of pancreatic cancer. Understanding the pancreas The pancreas is about 6 inches (15 centimeters) long and looks something like a pear lying on its side. It releases hormones, including insulin. These hormones help the body process the sugar in the foods you eat. The pancreas also makes digestive juices to help the body digest food and take in nutrients. How pancreatic cancer forms Pancreatic cancer happens when cells in the pancreas develop changes in their DNA. A cell's DNA holds the instructions that tell a cell what to do. In healthy cells, the instructions tell the cells to grow and multiply at a set rate. The cells die at a set time. In cancer cells, the changes give different instructions. The changes tell the cancer cells to make many more cells quickly. Cancer cells can keep living when healthy cells would die. This causes there to be too many cells. The cancer cells might form a mass called a tumor. The tumor can grow to invade and destroy healthy body tissue. In time, cancer cells can break away and spread to other parts of the body. Most pancreatic cancer begins in the cells that line the ducts of the pancreas. This type of cancer is called pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or pancreatic exocrine cancer. Less often, cancer can form in the hormone-producing cells or the neuroendocrine cells of the pancreas. These types of cancer are called pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or pancreatic endocrine cancer. Risk factors Factors that might raise the risk of pancreatic cancer include: Smoking. Type 2 diabetes. Chronic inflammation of the pancreas, called pancreatitis. Family history of DNA changes that can increase cancer risk. These include changes in the BRCA2 gene, Lynch syndrome and familial atypical multiple mole melanoma (FAMMM) syndrome. Family history of pancreatic cancer. Obesity. Older age. Most people with pancreatic cancer are over 65. Drinking a lot of alcohol. As pancreatic cancer progresses, it can cause complications such as: Weight loss. People with pancreatic cancer might lose weight as the cancer uses more of the body's energy. Nausea and vomiting caused by cancer treatments or a cancer pressing on the stomach might make it hard to eat. Sometimes the body has trouble getting nutrients from food because the pancreas isn't making enough digestive juices. Jaundice. Pancreatic cancer that blocks the liver's bile duct can cause jaundice. Signs include yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes. Jaundice can cause dark-colored urine and pale-colored stools. Jaundice often occurs without belly pain. If the bile duct is blocked, a plastic or metal tube called a stent can be put inside it. The stent helps hold the bile duct open. This is done using a procedure called endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, also called ERCP. During ERCP, a health care professional puts a long tube with a tiny camera, called an endoscope, down the throat. The tube goes through the stomach and into the upper part of the small intestine. The health professional puts a dye into the pancreatic ducts and bile ducts through a small tube that fits through the endoscope. The dye helps the ducts show up on imaging tests. The health professional uses those images to place a stent at the right spot in the duct to help hold it open. Pain. A growing tumor may press on nerves in your abdomen, causing pain that can become severe. Pain medications can help you feel more comfortable. Treatments, such as radiation and chemotherapy, might help slow tumor growth and provide some pain relief. When medicines aren't helping, a health care professional might suggest a celiac plexus block. This procedure uses a needle to put alcohol into the nerves that control pain in the belly. The alcohol stops the nerves from sending pain signals to the brain. Bowel blockage. Pancreatic cancer can grow into or press on the first part of the small intestine, called the duodenum. This can block the flow of digested food from the stomach into the intestines. A health care professional might suggest putting a tube called a stent in the small intestine to hold it open. Sometimes, it might help to have surgery to place a feeding tube. Or surgery can attach the stomach to a lower part of the intestines where the cancer isn't causing a blockage. Prevention Screening for people with a high risk of pancreatic cancer Screening uses tests to look for signs of pancreatic cancer in people who don't have symptoms. It might be an option if you have a very high risk of pancreatic cancer. Your risk might be high if you have a strong family history of pancreatic cancer or if you have an inherited DNA change that increases the risk of cancer. Pancreatic cancer screening might involve imaging tests, such as MRI and ultrasound. These tests are generally repeated every year. The goal of screening is to find pancreatic cancer when it's small and most likely to be cured. Research is ongoing, so it's not yet clear whether screening can lower the risk of dying of pancreatic cancer. There are risks to screening. This includes the chance of finding something that requires surgery but later turns out to not be cancer. Talk about the benefits and risks of pancreatic cancer screening with your health care team. Together you can decide whether screening is right for you. Genetic testing for cancer risk If you have a family history of pancreatic cancer, discuss it with a health care professional. The health professional can review your family history and help you understand whether genetic testing might be right for you. Genetic testing can find DNA changes that run in families and increase the risk of cancer. If you're interested in genetic testing, you might be referred to a genetic counselor or other health care professional trained in genetics. Ways to lower risk You might reduce your risk of pancreatic cancer if you: Stop smoking. If you smoke, talk to a member of your health care team about ways to help you stop. These might include support groups, medicines and nicotine replacement therapy. Maintain a healthy weight. If you are at a healthy weight, work to maintain it. If you need to lose weight, aim for a slow, steady weight loss of 1 to 2 pounds (0.5 to 1 kilogram) a week. To help you lose weight, exercise most days of the week. Slowly increase the amount of exercise you get. Choose a diet rich in vegetables, fruit and whole grains with smaller portions.  (CREDITS: MAYO CLINIC)

In the wake of Jeffrey Epstein's death in federal custody, the Bureau of Prisons promised sweeping reforms aimed at preventing another such failure. Those commitments included stricter adherence to suicide-watch protocols, improved staffing and supervision at facilities like the Metropolitan Correctional Center, greater accountability for guard misconduct, and clearer lines of responsibility when inmates are designated as high-risk. Investigations by the DOJ Inspector General laid out glaring institutional failures, from falsified records to exhausted, improperly trained staff working massive overtime. Publicly, the BOP and the Justice Department framed Epstein's death as a catalyst for overdue reform, assuring lawmakers and the public that meaningful structural changes were underway to restore trust in a system that had catastrophically failed a high-profile detainee.Years later, those promised reforms remain largely unrealized. Chronic understaffing persists across the federal prison system, with suicide prevention protocols still inconsistently applied and accountability for leadership failures remaining minimal. High-level officials largely avoided serious consequences, while the same institutional culture that allowed Epstein's detention to be mishandled continues to define the BOP's operations. Congressional oversight has produced reports and hearings, but little in the way of durable reform, leaving the system vulnerable to the same breakdowns exposed in 2019. The result is a grim reality: Epstein's death became less a turning point for reform than a case study in how federal institutions absorb scandal, issue promises, and then quietly revert to business as usual.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Send us your desired health topic or guest suggestionsWhat if your body is telling the truth you won't say out loud? We sit down with Nima Rahmany to unpack the trauma response of "fawning", and learn how chronic people pleasing freezes your authentic voice, strains your nervous system, and quietly fuels physical symptoms. Nima opens up about his own wake-up call, and the hard lessons that turned into practical tools for regulation and repair.We trace how children learn to trade authenticity for attachment, and how power dynamics decide whether we fight, flee, freeze, or fawn. Nima breaks down polyvagal theory in plain language so you can recognize sympathetic activation, dorsal shutdown, and ventral safety in your own body and in others. You'll learn how to become the operator of your state, not a passenger—interrupting people pleasing, tolerating the guilt of setting honest boundaries, and using anger as medicine rather than something to hide. Nima shares the “rage run,” a structured blend of sprint intervals and striking that completes fight-flight energy so calm can return. We also explore relationship dynamics: the shift from chaotic, trauma-bonded intensity to steady, secure connection;  and why true repair beats perfection. Real stories show health turning points and relational breakthroughs when clients stop outsourcing safety and start choosing themselves. Ready to trade chronic appeasement for nervous system safety and self-respect?

In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we review a recent paper by Rogg et al titled “Frequency and Progression of Azotemia During Acute and Chronic Treatment of Congestive Heart Failure in Cats,” which was published in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine in 2025. After all, many of us are taught that we are “between a rock and a hard place” when it comes to ailing hearts and kidneys. We've always been taught not to give too much furosemide to cats in congestive heart failure (CHF), right? Not only are we worried about shriveling up the cats and their pre-load, but we're worried about shriveling up their kidneys too! Tune in to find out more!

Have you ever found yourself immediately reaching for a coping behavior like scrolling or stress eating, without even realizing what emotion triggered it? That could be a sign of emotional repression—a survival mechanism that protects you, but at a huge cost to your health and boundaries. In part one of this essential two-part series on emotional health and post-traumatic growth, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide) dive into the powerful energy of anger. They are joined by their friend and lead educator, Matt Bush, an international applied neurology expert and founder of Next Level Neuro. This conversation explores how a lifetime of suppressed anger, tied to the fight response and complex trauma, creates a toxic internal environment, linking chronic stress to diagnoses like Stage 3 cancer. You will learn the crucial difference between conscious suppression and unconscious repression, how this shifts your entire neurological perception of the world, and what safe, structured steps you can take to begin discharging this vital energy from your body. This episode is for anyone who struggles with quick reactivity, feeling disconnected from what they feel, or understanding the deep mind-body connection of stored emotion. Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction: anger, fight response, and health diagnosis. 01:37 Emotional expression & its vitality for nervous system health and reducing stress. 07:06 Perceived vs. real threat and the roots of repression in childhood. 16:45 Defining suppression versus repression as protective mechanisms. 23:42 The neurological and physiological consequences of repression. 35:34 Anger as a natural response to a boundary violation and safe release practices. 42:47 The link between repressed anger, boundaries, and immune system dysfunction. 48:28 Rewiring for a new homeostasis and the role of epigenetics. Key Takeaways: Emotional repression—the unconscious blocking of emotions—is a trauma-informed survival strategy that traps the nervous system in a constant state of threat response, leading to the buildup of toxic stress hormones. Repression is often tied to complex post-traumatic stress, where a child's nervous system was unable to process big emotions and lacked co-regulation from caregivers, learning that emotional expression was unsafe or threatening. When repressed, anger (the natural response to a boundary violation) becomes internalized, resulting in behaviors like overworking, people-pleasing, and, ultimately, immune system dysregulation (e.g., autoimmune conditions). Chronic repression can alter your entire perception of the world, making everyday situations feel threatening (non-cognitive), and driving unconscious avoidance or numbing behaviors (e.g., binging, workaholism, mindless scrolling). Healing involves creating a safe and structured environment (alone or with a trusted person/coach) to gradually access and discharge emotional energy, using neurosomatic intelligence tools to repattern the nervous system.

Many people live with medically unexplained symptoms, chronic dizziness, brain fog, or persistent pain — and they're told there's no clear cause. In this video, Joey explains the psychoneuroimmunology behind these experiences and how identity (or lack of identity) shapes physiology. Your symptoms may be teaching you who you really are. So how do we overcome symptoms by becoming more grounded, differentiated, and connected? Joey explores why some people remain stuck in “medical mysteries,” why context and relationships matter, and how your body's sensations become a compass for healing. This is how we create a new pathway toward wholeness. – 3 WAYS TO GET STARTED ON YOUR HEALING JOURNEY:

Every chronic dieter has the same pattern. They chase perfection, they collapse the second real life bumps their plan, and they end up stuck in the same loop year after year.We break down why that happens and what people who actually succeed do differently. You'll hear the real reasons perfection never works, why all or nothing always becomes nothing, and how to build habits that hold up even when life gets busy, stressful, or unpredictable.You'll also hear one simple mindset shift that quietly changes everything at the next decision point. It's small, it's doable, and it rewires the entire pattern once you start using it.*Tried every diet out there and nothing sticks?Imagine having a coach checking in on you EVERY day—keeping you on track and adapting your plan to whatever life throws your way.A personalized, 1:1 coaching program designed just for you can really change the game.➤ https://www.mybodytutor.com/coaching/weight-lossWhy don't we talk and see if we're a good fit for each other?

Join Andrea Samadi as she reviews Dr. Shane Creado's insights on why sleep is a core pillar of brain health, how chronic sleep deprivation harms reaction time, inflammation, pain perception, and why children pay the highest price. Learn practical sleep strategies—consistent schedules, light management, wind-down routines—and how the Silva Method's mind-training can deepen restorative sleep for athletes, high performers, and families. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. This week, we move onto PART 2 of our review of EP 72[i] with Shane Creado, MD and his book Peak Sleep Performance for Athletes recorded back in July of 2020. In PART 1[ii], we covered: How strategic napping, morning brain habits, and even the Silva Method all work together to reset your brain, boost performance, and transform your health from the inside out. Today, PART 2 we will continue with our review, diving a bit deeper into sleep deprivation and its impact of performance (whether you are an athlete, or just someone looking to improve productivity). PART 3, next week, we will go a bit deeper into the impacts of concussions and brain injuries on our sleep and performance. Just a reminder: Dr. Creado is a double board-certified sleep medicine doctor and psychiatrist who practices functional sleep medicine, integrative psychiatry, and sports psychiatry. He brings all of these specialties together to uncover the underlying factors that sabotage our sleep and then treats them comprehensively, helping people to achieve their health and performance goals with sleep at the forefront As we work through our reviews, we will spend a considerable amount of time on this important health staple that's scientifically proven to boost our physical and mental health. For today's EP 379, and PART 2 of our review of our 2020 interview with Dr. Shane Creado, we will cover: ✔ Sleep as a core pillar of health according to Dr. Shane Creado, author of Peak Sleep Performance for Athletes. ✔ Sleep deprivation is a national crisis and kid's pay the highest price. ✔ 7 Well-Known Tips for Improving Sleep ✔ Applying the Silva Method to Reset and Improve Our Sleep ✔ Important sleep tips for athletes and high performers   Let's go back to 2020 and revisit what Dr. Creado had to say about sleep. CLIP 1 — Why Sleep Is Non-Negotiable for Brain Health Short Explanation: In Clip 1, Dr. Shane Creado explains that sleep is a foundational pillar of brain health, equal in importance to exercise and nutrition. He emphasizes that without optimizing sleep, it is impossible to truly optimize learning, emotional regulation, focus, or performance. Dr. Creado highlights that chronic sleep deprivation is widespread in the U.S., often unnoticed, and especially damaging for children—where lack of deep sleep suppresses growth hormone, increases obesity risk, and raises the likelihood of developing mental-health challenges later in life. His message is clear: when sleep improves, the entire “fabric” of life and health begins to change. VIDEO 1 – Click Here to Watch In our next video clip from Dr. Creado, I ask him to dive deeper into optimizing our brain health with a quote from his book that reads “your brain health and sports performance cannot be optimized unless your sleep is optimized. And once this is achieved your quality of life will skyrocket. When you sleep well, the fabric of your life will change. And when this happens, it will have a ripple effect.” This sounds like a simple concept, but for those of us who have been working on improving this pillar, we know it's one of those concepts that easier said, than done. Let's hear Dr. Creado's thoughts on my question- And Dr. Creado replied that “sleep is one of the pillars of brain health along with exercise and nutrition. And we need to make sure we're getting the right amount of sleep. Most adults and most teenagers don't know about this but a vast majority, 70 million Americans suffer from a sleep problem. And way more than those suffer from sleep deprivation, chronic sleep deprivation. If a child is deprived of sleep, their growth hormone levels will be suppressed because deep sleep is where growth hormone levels peak, so basically you are going to be stunting your growth. Over 80% of kids who are sleep deprived go on to develop obesity. There's a huge overlap between kids who are chronically sleep deprived who manifest mental health conditions later in life.”

The holidays are here, and for a lot of caregivers raising individuals with FASD, this isn't the season of calm and cozy.It's the season where routines explode, nerves fray, school schedules flip, people show up unannounced, and you're trying to keep everyone safe while the world tells you to “make memories.”That's why all month long, The FASD Success Show is bringing you the Holiday Sanity Series — conversations that unpack the science, the stress, and the strategies that actually make life work for families like ours.And to kick things off, I'm joined by Melissa Dobson, caregiver, mom of three teens, and Co-Chair of the Family Advisory Committee at CanFASD.Melissa's story is one that every caregiver will recognize. She's been through the system fights, the school meetings, the sleepless nights, and the constant rebuilding that happens after everything falls apart.But instead of letting it break her, she's learned how to take the hard stuff, the setbacks, the overwhelm, the sh*t life throws at you, and turn it into rocket fuel.In This Episode You'll HearWhy you can't fight every battle and why that's not weakness. Chronic advocacy keeps your body in survival mode. The brain doesn't know the difference between emotional stress and physical danger. It releases cortisol and adrenaline either way. Melissa shares how she learned to pause, recover, and fight from a place of regulation instead of burnout.How rebuilding routines repairs the brain. For individuals with FASD, predictability equals safety. Every time you rebuild after chaos, you're helping the brain re-establish order, calm the amygdala, and bring the thinking brain back online.Connection isn't a luxury. It's co-regulation. When we connect with someone who feels safe, our brains release oxytocin, the chemical that quiets the stress response. Melissa explains how community and shared experience have helped her stay grounded and steady her kids through hard seasons.Letting things fall apart isn't failure. It's flexibility. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop holding everything together. Letting go of old routines and traditions that don't fit your child's needs isn't giving up. It's creating space for the brain to adapt and grow in new ways.Advocacy works best when you're regulated. When your nervous system is calm, your prefrontal cortex — the part responsible for reasoning, empathy, and problem-solving — stays engaged. Melissa shows how advocacy rooted in regulation creates real change instead of constant exhaustion.Why It MattersThis season isn't about perfection. It's about protection.When you build your holidays around regulation instead of expectation, your family's nervous systems can actually handle the joy.Regulated brains learn better, connect better, and recover faster.And that includes yours.Melissa's story reminds us that you can't control everything that comes your way, but you can decide what to do with it.You can turn frustration into focus.You can turn chaos into clarity.And yes, you can turn sh*t into rocket fuel.Because regulation isn't the reward you get for surviving the season.It's the foundation that makes everything else possible.That's your one good thing this week.Resources & LinksConnect with Melissa Dobson Co-Chair, Family Advisory Committee — CanFASD.caJoin Our Community Free Caregiver Group: facebook.com/groups/FASDforeverWatch & LisSupport the show

Hip-hop icon Colin Wolfe delivers casual, humble, and unassuming vocals in this interview episode of #SDnR. His down-to-earth manner is both refreshing and surprising, especially considering he's worked with some of the biggest names in music—Madonna, Michael Jackson, Tupac, and Dr. Dre, just to name a few. Being a major contributor to The Chronic alone earns him lifelong bragging rights, but Colin didn't stop there.Within the first five minutes of the interview, it becomes clear that we're speaking with someone who has been instrumental on the ground floor of a cultural shift in music. Wolfe's fascinating stories and anecdotes place him right in the middle of a musical gumbo, shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the industry's greatest talents. You can genuinely feel how deeply respected he is among these legends.Colin Wolfe has become a hip-hop legend in his own right, even though he's well-versed in a wide range of musical styles and genres. It's that musical diversity that strengthened his artistry and helped shape his genius as one of hip-hop's greatest composers. This multifaceted musician—producer, composer, and songwriter—has plenty to say about his industry, which honestly made me wonder if a Colin Wolfe TED Talk should be next.

If you moved into a house and you're finding chronic symptoms surfacing - chronic coughing, phlegm and trouble breathing - you could be dealing with sneaky, hidden mold. This episode breaks down what you can do from a holistic health perspective. Doctor Motley's Recommendations: ------ Testing for mold toxins: Mycotoxin testing, OATS (Organic Acid Test) - https://mosaicdx.com/ Immunolytics - https://immunolytics.com/ As you remove yourself from mold, you want to make sure you're having proper bowel movements. If you're struggling in this area, colonics or coffee enemas are good options to explore (if you have leaky-gut type symptoms, take some bone-broth, L-glutamine and butyric acid).  If you're blocked up, try magnesium oxide, Dr. Scholze's intestinal formula (https://www.herbdoc.com/intestinal-formula-1).

Earlier this year my father-in-law was hospitalized with what the doctors loosely labeled as COPD—trouble breathing, fluid in the lungs, inflammation, all the scary stuff that makes you realize how fragile life can be. When he finally got home from the hospital, I put him on a very specific peptide stack designed for deep respiratory repair, and the results were nothing short of incredible.That experience inspired today's episode. I walk you through the exact peptide stack we used to regenerate lung tissue, modulate inflammation, and get him back on his feet WAY faster than the standard prognosis. We're talking about Bronchogen, Chonluten, VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide), TB-500, and GHK-Cu—each of them working on different mechanistic pathways ranging from DNA-level gene expression to immune modulation to fibrosis prevention.You'll hear the science, the clinical evidence, the dosing, and—maybe most importantly—why this stack worked so well for a real human being in a real crisis. And yes, even if you're “healthy,” these peptides have profound regenerative and anti-aging properties for the lungs that make them worth understanding.Chronic respiratory disease is the third leading cause of death worldwide. Over 454 million people suffer from lung-related conditions. And when you see those numbers—and then see firsthand how quickly lung tissue can repair with the right tools—you start to understand why peptide-based regenerative medicine is the future.Whether you're dealing with COPD, bronchitis, long-haul viral issues, inflammation, fibrosis, smoker's lungs, or you simply want to bulletproof your respiratory system as you age… this episode is for you.As always, make sure you're on my email list so you stay connected no matter what platform bans me next. That's where all my best content lives, including updates when I release episodes like this one.I'm so grateful for each and every one of you who listens, comments, uses my codes, and shares this work. This truly is a dream come true, and your support allows me to bring the highest-quality peptide and hormone optimization content to the world.Strap in—and let's get into the peptide stack for lung health.

Find out how to improve blood sugar control and stop making common blood sugar mistakes! In this video, we'll cover 13 blood sugar mistakes to avoid, along with the best blood sugar management tips for healthy blood sugar levels. 0:00 Introduction: Stop making blood sugar mistakes!0:25 High blood sugar explained2:41 Insulin resistance and diabetes5:47 Common blood sugar regulation mistakes 12:22 How to lower blood sugar naturally14:05 More blood sugar management tips Did you know that all of the blood in your body should only contain a single teaspoon of sugar? Our bodies tightly regulate the amount of sugar in our blood at any given time. If you have prediabetes, that number rises to 1.5 teaspoons. With diabetes, the blood contains 2 teaspoons of sugar. The average person consumes between 50 and 100 teaspoons of sugar every day. Insulin removes the sugar from your blood and converts it to fat or stored sugar in the liver and muscles. The body only needs a tiny amount of sugar (which the liver can make on its own), so we don't actually need to consume any sugar at all. Chronic excessive sugar consumption can lead to the development of insulin resistance, which is at the root of many chronic diseases.Improve blood sugar control by avoiding these common mistakes when testing your blood sugar. 1. Not washing your hands2. Using alcohol wipes incorrectly 3. Using expired strips4. Hot sauna or cold plunge before testing5. Tylenol usage6. Taking vitamin C and other supplements 7. Squeezing fingers8. Using different fingers 9. Using continuous glucose monitors 10. Testing at high altitudes11. Drinking coffee 12. Checking glucose in the morning 13. DehydrationAn A1C test measures the average blood sugar over a period of 3 months. Several factors, including ethnicity, anemia, and diet, can affect these results. The liver is at the root of the problem when it comes to type 2 diabetes. Fortunately, a low-carb diet with intermittent fasting can quickly eliminate liver fat and correct insulin resistance and diabetes.To further support healthy blood sugar levels, try the following:•Consistent exercise •Apple cider vinegar diluted in water before meals•Morning walks•Berberine •Get plenty of sleep•Reduce stress levels•Increase sunlight exposureDr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

#355: We need to talk about burnout - and not just the kind that comes from working too many hours or answering emails at 10 p.m. This week, I'm addressing that bone-deep exhaustion that's become the background noise of so many of our lives, where your body feels like it's moving through wet cement and everything feels like way too much. I'm talking about the burnout that happens even on maternity leave, even in retirement, even while doing things you genuinely love. This isn't a work problem that a vacation can fix. It's about the chronic, relentless abandonment of yourself in the name of keeping everyone else comfortable. Tune in this week to discover how emotional outsourcing keeps us trapped in the burnout cycle. You'll learn why your nervous system reads disappointing others as life or death, and most importantly, you'll get a practical remedy for starting to source safety internally and becoming your own North Star once more.

Do you feel like you get crazy histamine intolerance symptoms as your body reacts to everything — certain foods, smells, stress, or even the weather? Symptoms such as itchy skin, rashes, dermatographia, angioedema, bloating, or headaches that seem to appear out of nowhere are often linked to histamine intolerance.But before you blame your diet and dive headfirst into a low-histamine diet, know that food isn't likely to blame. After working with over 1,000 clients, I can tell you that there are deeper, more pressing issues that drive urticaria and chronic hives.Let's dive into why you probably don't have histamine intolerance (despite having all the symptoms), how histamine intolerance differs from MCAS, and what's really triggering these crazy histamine reactions. From mold exposure to liver detox issues and hormone imbalances, we explore how these hidden factors can lead to ongoing inflammation and itchy skin that just won't quit.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- FREE Root Cause Finder Guide - https://www.skinterrupt.com/rootcauseguide-pod - See all the references

Six years ago we had John Newman on GeriPal to talk about Geroscience (Song choice Who Wants to Live Forever by Queen, perfect selection).  John explained the basics of geroscience, what is it, what are the key theories in geroscience, what is senescence, why people who provide clinical care for older adults should care about geroscience, and potential therapeutics like metformin and rapamycin. Today we bring on three rising stars in Geroscience, Brian Andonian, Sara LaHue, Joe Hippensteel, to talk about one of the key pillars of Geroscience: inflammaging.  We use this terrific paper they published in Geroscience as a springboard.  We discuss: What is inflammaging? Chronic progressive low grade inflammation with aging. I try to get one of them to stake a claim that inflammaging should be the organizing principle of geroscience How does inflammaging operate in rheumatologic conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (Brian), neurologic conditions like traumatic brain injury  (Sara), and critical illness (Joe).  We talk about Post-ICU Syndrome (PICS) and relate inflammaging to our prior podcast with Wes Ely about his book Every Deep Drawn Breath.  We also talk about how inflammaging is not just a factor in chronic conditions like diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease, which make intuitive sense, but also in acute conditions, like sepsis or traumatic brain injury in older adults. The state of the science on clinical and research tests for inflammaging - ready for prime time?  What is the state of the science for therapeutics? Why should some anti-inflammatory therapeutics make us nervous in frail older adults? Inflammation developed evolutionarily for a reason. E.g. tthink of drugs that wipe out the immune system. The outsized discrepancy between non-FDA products marketed to consumers as anti-inflammaging and the state of academic Geroscience.  We announce GeriPal's new lineup of skin care anti-inflammaging products! We discuss lifestyle interventions such as exercise, meditation, caloric restriction and intermittent fasting, and strength/resistance training. We recognize the efforts of ClinStar in bringing together multidisciplinary aging researchers to advance aging research, including our guests. And what a joy to sing Billy Joel!  Here's a link to the documentary I mentioned, which is on my list to see. -Alex Smith

Many people experience a deep, lingering fatigue that isn't fixed by a full night's sleep, and it often stems from real imbalances inside the body. When mitochondria—the tiny engines that power our cells—are stressed by poor diet, toxins, infections, or lack of rest, the whole system can slow down. Ongoing stress can also disrupt the adrenal system, leaving some people feeling wired and anxious while others feel drained from morning to night. The encouraging news is that steady habits like nourishing whole foods, balanced blood sugar, restorative sleep, and gentle movement can help the body find its rhythm again. With the right support, energy often returns, and a sense of hope does, too. In this episode, I dive into, along with Dr. Izabella Wentz and Dr. Elizabeth Boham, the real roots of chronic fatigue, showing how stress, lifestyle, and hidden imbalances drain our energy—and how practical, nourishing habits can help restore it. Izabella Wentz is an internationally acclaimed thyroid specialist and a licensed pharmacist who has dedicated her career to addressing the root causes of autoimmune thyroid disease after being diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis in 2009. She is the author of three books on Hashimoto's: Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause, Hashimoto's Food Pharmacology, and Hashimoto's Protocol, which became a #1 New York Times bestseller. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Boham lectures on a variety of topics, including Women's Health and Breast Cancer Prevention, insulin resistance, heart health, weight control and allergies. She is on the faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers. Head to bioptimizers.com/hyman and use code HYMAN to save 15%.

0:00 Introduction: Leg strength for longevity0:37 Leg problems that affect longevity 10:41 Type 2 diabetes 13:50 The Soleus push-up 16:40 Sitting-rising test and longevity 19:43 More tips for strong legs Did you know that your legs can give early warning signs about underlying health conditions? The older you are, the more relevant this becomes! The following conditions that affect the legs can provide insight into your longevity and overall health. 1. Peripheral neuropathyThese symptoms of numbness, pain, tingling, or burning in the bottom of the feet or fingertips are often associated with diabetes. High levels of sugar in the bloodstream destroy the vascular and nervous systems.2. Ankle and foot edema Puffy legs and ankles, or pitting edema, often signify a serious problem with circulation involving the kidney, liver, or heart.3. Restless legs syndromeThis often occurs at night and is related to the overconsumption of sugar. Interference with your sleep can decrease longevity. Dietary changes, vitamin B1, and magnesium may help improve this condition. 4. Deep vein thrombosis Clots in the legs can break off and travel to the lungs. Around 90% to 95% percent of heart attacks are caused by clots. 5. Peripheral artery disease This type of atherosclerosis goes beyond the arteries of the heart and is caused by damage to the endothelial layer of the arteries. 6. Chronic venous insufficiency This is associated with a sedentary lifestyle and puts increased pressure on the heart. 7. Sarcopenia Age-related muscle loss is one of the top predictors of mortality. Protein and exercise are vital, especially as you age. Type 2 diabetes and blood sugar issues cause problems with the inside of the arteries, which often show up in your legs first. A low-carb diet and intermittent fasting can help reverse these issues, but this is often ignored by doctors. Benfotiamine and alpha-lipoic acid can also help with associated peripheral neuropathy.The soleus push-up can significantly improve your blood sugar and circulation, and the sitting-standing test is an excellent indicator of hip and core strength.Potassium, a low-carb diet, and the Soleus Push-up can all help improve edema and reduce excess water weight. Increasing nitric oxide supports the inner walls of the arteries, and consistent exercise and a sufficient amount of sleep can help strengthen the legs and increase longevity.

You will learn about the five macro minerals as the big players that run your electrical system, stress response, thyroid, blood sugar, and detox pathways, and why I always start with a straightforward hair test before worrying about smaller numbers.What is really happening when these core minerals drift out of balance and you feel fatigued, anxious, constipated, bloated, unable to sleep well, or emotionally numb while your blood work keeps looking normal? Chronic stress, mold, gut and absorption issues, restrictive eating, big hormonal transitions, and even over filtered water can quietly drain these minerals long before anything shows up clearly on your standard labs.
