Podcasts about Current Opinion

Show Notes: Why do people believe in God, or reject Him altogether? In this compelling episode, Dr. Jay Medenwaldt shares his intellectual and spiritual journey from atheism to belief. A social psychologist with a PhD from Baylor and a current professor at Northwestern College, Jay approached religion from a purely academic lens, interested in why people believed in things he once viewed as clearly false. But, in an effort to avoid confirmation bias and stay true to his role as a researcher, Jay began examining both sides of the argument. To his surprise, the rational and historical case for Christianity was stronger than he expected. Guest Bio: Dr. Jay Medenwaldt, a former Air Force behavioral scientist with nine years of service, including teaching psychology courses at the Air Force Academy and conducting research. Dr. Medenwaldt holds a doctorate in social psychology from Baylor University, with a focus on the psychology of religion and virtue. He also earned a Master of Divinity in apologetics, ethics, and biblical studies, as well as a Master's in psychological sciences. His research has been published in prominent journals, including The International Journal for the Psychology of Religion and Current Opinion in Psychology.

We've been focusing on the dynamics of democratic backsliding in the United States and beyond. In this episode of Postscript: Conversations on Politics and Political Science, Susan talks the co-founder and co-director of the Democratic Erosion Consortium, Dr. Robert Blair about how the Consortium offers FREE resources to teachers, students, journalists, policy makers, and any interested person – including shared syllabus, readings, assignments, YouTube virtual roundtables, and policy briefs. Rob defines democratic erosion and offers critical insights on the importance of interdisciplinarity, calibrating outrage, and distinguishing between policy disputes and the erosion of democracy. He offers a clear-headed analysis of what is legal v. what breaks down democracy that is not to be missed. We conclude with thoughts on what everyone can do protect democracy. Dr. Robert Blair is Associate Professor of Political Science and International and Public Affairs at Brown University and co-founder and co-director of the Democratic Erosion Consortium. He studies the consolidation of state authority after civil war, with an emphasis on rule of law and security institutions, as well as the causes and consequences of democratic backsliding. His book, Peacekeeping, Policing, and the Rule of Law after Civil War, was published in 2020 with Cambridge University Press and his articles appear in political science outlets such as American Political Science Review, American Journal of Political Science, Journal of Politics, Comparative Political Studies, and International Organization but also science journals such as Science, Nature Human Behaviour, or Current Opinion in Psychology.

¿Crees que solo los grandes bebedores deberían dejar el alcohol? La verdad es que incluso si solo bebes los fines de semana, tu cuerpo cambia drásticamente cuando dejas de beber. En este video descubrirás cómo evoluciona tu salud en solo 1 día, 1 mes y 1 año sin una gota de alcohol.Te explico los cambios físicos y mentales reales, validados por ciencia, que ocurren cuando dejas de beber: desde la regeneración del hígado y la mejora del sueño, hasta la claridad mental y el equilibrio hormonal. Hablaremos de los dos perfiles más comunes: quienes beben todos los días y quienes lo hacen solo en eventos sociales. Y lo más importante: cómo afecta eso a tu cuerpo.

Title:Mindfulness Training for Addictions: Has Neuroscience Revealed a Brain Hack by Which Awareness Subverts the Addictive Process?Description:Can mindfulness offer a revolutionary approach to overcoming addictions? In this episode, we dive into Dr. Jud Brewer's 2019 review article exploring how mindfulness-based interventions target reward-based learning mechanisms to interrupt addictive behaviors. Discover how awareness and curiosity can transform the cycle of craving, making mindful curiosity a “more rewarding reward.” We'll discuss:•The science of reward-based learning and its role in addiction.•The orbitofrontal cortex as a key brain region in value assignment.•How mindfulness subverts habitual behaviors without relying on willpower.This episode highlights the intersection of neuroscience and ancient mindfulness practices, providing actionable insights into breaking free from habit loops.Full Reference:Brewer, J.A.

Dr. Michele Gelfand is a cultural psychologist and author of Rule Makers, Rule Breakers. She joins us to discusses how “tight” and “loose” cultures shape societies. Tight cultures, like Japan's, respond to threats with strict rules and order, while looser ones, like the U.S., allow greater flexibility. Gelfand suggests a balanced “Goldilocks” approach, adjusting strictness and flexibility to suit each environment's needs, from families to organizations. She also explores online accountability, recommending "nudges" to promote civility, and sees AI as a potential tool for managing biases and promoting understanding.     Guest Bio Michele Gelfand is a Professor of Organizational Behavior at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and Professor of Psychology by Courtesy at Stanford University.

“Invasive sorghum aphid: A decade of research on deciphering plant resistance mechanisms and novel approaches in breeding for sorghum resistance to aphids” with Drs. Somashekhar Punnuri, Karen Harris-Shultz, Joseph Knoll, and Xinzhi Ni. Sorghum is an important crop in the United States, grown for grain, forage and bioenergy purposes. However, its production is facing several challenges due to abiotic and biotic factors, with aphids emerging as a significant pest in last decade. Once considered a minor pest, sorghum aphids have become a major threat to sorghum cultivation due to susceptible varieties and insufficient pest management strategies. In this episode, Dr. Somashekhar Punnuri, an associate professor from Fort Valley State University; Drs. Karen Harris-Shultz and Joesph Knoll, research geneticists with USDA ARS; and Dr. Xinzhi Ni, a research entomologist from USDA ARS, share their insights on current research efforts and new methods to combat sorghum aphids. Tune in to learn more about: ·         What characteristics sorghum aphids have ·         How sorghum aphids reproduce ·         What resistance mechanisms sorghum has ·         What the current efforts are in breeding aphid resistant sorghum varieties ·         What the challenges are in aphid management in sorghum If you would like more information about this topic, this episode's paper is available here: https://doi.org/10.1002/csc2.21301 This paper is always freely available.

Today's discussion centers on the pitfalls of exercise and why many individuals struggle to see results despite their hard work. Overtraining syndrome, which can lead to persistent fatigue, irritability, and a lack of motivation, is a significant barrier to achieving fitness goals. The episode explores how excessive exercise can disrupt hormone levels, particularly in women, impacting energy, recovery, and overall well-being. Additionally, the relationship between diet and exercise is examined, emphasizing the importance of balanced nutrition for optimal performance and recovery. Tune in as we delve into practical strategies for finding the right balance between exercise intensity, recovery, and nutrition to enhance your fitness journey.Takeaways: Overtraining can lead to negative side effects, including persistent fatigue and irritability, impacting workout motivation. Women should adjust workout intensity according to their menstrual cycle for optimal performance and recovery. Chronic inflammation caused by excessive exercise without recovery can impair immune function and performance. Nutrition quality, not just calorie count, is essential for effective workout recovery and overall health. Exercise can disrupt hormonal balance, particularly in women, leading to menstrual irregularities and lower energy levels. Proper recovery, including sleep and rest days, is crucial for achieving fitness goals and preventing burnout.

In this episode, Dr. Ettensohn draws on psychodynamic dimensional models of personality development to describe narcissism and NPD at the borderline level. Characterized by identity diffusion, blurred boundaries, and disrupted internal experience, borderline personality organization represents an "in between" level where the perceptions of the self and others float in and out of clear focus. This episode reviews the important concepts of personality style vs. organization, helping the viewer to understand what a personality disorder actually is and why all personality disorders share common features. It discusses the developmental arrests thought to underlie borderline organization and describes common defense mechanisms that characterize this level of object relations. Borderline-level NPD is then discussed using these concepts. The episode concludes with a discussion of treatment.   References: Berney, S., de Roten, Y., Beretta, V., Kramer, U., & Despland, J.-N.

I am aware of her original intent to describe that specific patient population. I also use the quote in the video to describe the emotional vulnerabilities that necessitate splitting. Although she was describing BPD specifically, I feel the quote also works for borderline organization in general. The intense emotional vulnerabilities and exposure to unprocessed experience reflect the absence of moderating internal capacities - "skin" so to speak.

In this episode, Brendan Lee speaks with Professor Nancy Jordan. She has been at the forefront of all things to do with early numeracy research including looking at screeners and intervention. Many of you come from the science of reading world and are fans of Scarborough's Reading Rope, Nancy and colleagues have put together a Number Sense one! I've popped the citation in the show notes.    Throughout this conversation she delves into what number sense is, why it's important, how we can develop it and how to assess it. Nancy also covers the role of manipulatives and the transition to understanding fractions.  Resources mentioned: SENS: Screener for Early Number Sense Number Sense Interventions Jordan, N.

Anabolic resistance, a phenomenon marked by reduced muscle protein synthesis and impaired muscle maintenance, is a significant concern in aging populations. In this episode, Dr. Armstrong and Corbin Bruton discuss anabolic resistance and its impact on healthy aging.They explore the factors contributing to anabolic resistance, ranging from age-related declines in muscle protein synthesis to alterations in cellular signaling pathways. Despite its prevalence, the hosts challenge the notion that anabolic resistance is an inevitable consequence of aging, emphasizing the role of lifestyle interventions in mitigating its effects. Through discussions on resistance training, protein intake optimization, and other strategies, they highlight actionable steps individuals can take to combat anabolic resistance, maintain muscle health, and… age well.Articles:Aragon, A.

In this episode of “At the Bench”, we are interviewing one of our show's co-hosts, Dr. David McCulley. David is a neonatologist and developmental biologist at the University of California, San Diego and in this show he talks about what motivated him to build a research program investigating the genetic and developmental mechanisms responsible for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). David directs an NIH-supported study to determine the genetic mechanisms responsible for abnormal lung and pulmonary vascular development in patients with CDH. He describes the mentorship and collaborative research experiences that have shaped his career path. David also talks about the work that he is doing along with the Society for Pediatric Research and the co-hosts of this program, Dr. Misty Good and Dr. Betsy Crouch, to encourage and promote pediatric physician-scientist career development. Some highlighted papers: Stokes, G., Li, Z., Talaba, N., Genthe, W., Brix, M.B., Pham, B., Wienhold, M.D., Sandok, G., Hernan, R., Wynn, J., Tang, H., Tabima, D.M., Rodgers, A., Hacker, T.A., Chesler, N.C., Zhang, P., Murad, R., Yuan, J.X., Shen, Y., Chung, W.K., McCulley, D.J.

In this episode, Divya speaks with Mathew Mabele. Mathew is a Conservation Social Scientist, currently appointed as a lecturer in the Department of Geography at the University of Dodoma in Tanzania. Mathew's research uses the lenses of political ecology and decolonial thinking to shed light on the systemic structures and processes driving socio-ecological injustices. His work explicitly focuses on knowledge systems, power, and politics over framings of concepts such as biodiversity conservation, protected areas, human-wildlife coexistence, and sustainability.   Divya discusses Mathew's work on decolonizing conservation research in Tanzania. This conversation was based on Mathew's recent work highlighting the challenges of representation and the impacts of the global North funding on conservation research in the global South. Mathew's balanced perspective resonates throughout the discussion—not anti-global North, but rather, a call to recalibrate research practices for greater inclusivity and justice. The conversation concludes with a discussion on Mathew's other ongoing collaboration on the Convivial Conservation project, where he has collaborated with a large group of scholars to chart pathways for a socially just, democratic, and inclusive form of biodiversity governance.   References:  Mabele, M.

Maximale Fitness, minimaler Stressfaktor – jeden Sonntag in Marks Dranbleiber-Newsletter. Wer im Gym trainiert, kennt das: Jedes Jahr wieder bilden sich im Januar Warteschlangen an den Squat-Racks, und nach ein paar Wochen ist der Spuk wieder vorbei. Auch in den Medien ist das Thema "gute Vorsätze" zu einer Art Running-Gag geworden ("alle Jahre wieder..."), weil Neujahrsvorsätze angeblich sowieso ein One-Way-Ticket ins Land des Scheiterns sind. Aber es stimmt nicht. Jedenfalls nicht unbedingt. Jedem Neuanfang wohnt ein Zauber inne, sagt man. Die Wissenschaft bestätigt dies. Sie nennt das Phänomen den "Neustart-Effekt". Inzwischen wissen wir, dass Neujahrsvorsätze sogar besser funktionieren können, als andere Versuche, fit und gesund zu werden. Hier sind 5 Wege, wie Du den Neustart-Effekt zu Deinem Vorteil nutzt, motivierter dranbleibst und Deine Fitnessziele erreichst. ____________

If you think positive affirmations are a touchy-feely approach to dealing with bias and inequity, think again! Research shows that positive affirmations are an excellent way to combat negative messaging and positively impact our thoughts and actions. Positive affirmations help us to disrupt negative thinking (that often comes from gender bias that is not our fault but is our problem) and help re-wire our brains for positive thoughts. Women in society, especially in the world of social media, are fed a steady diet of “not enoughness”, but guess what? You ARE  enough, you HAVE enough, and you DO enough (That's one of many affirmations we'll be discussing in this episode!) The best anecdote to negative energy…the best way to interrupt external and internal negative talk… is creating a practice of positive affirmations. With practice, eventually, positive thought patterns appear and interrupt negative thoughts AND those good thoughts then affect your actions. I often say on the Advancing Women Podcast, that when you sit with warriors the conversation is different and, in this episode, I sit with warriors and we share, and discuss some of our favorite (most impactful) positive affirmations.   References https://dannysessays.com/ Addison Road “This Little Light of Mine”   https://youtu.be/CVeB7ACVgO0   Hebrews 11:1     https://podcasts.apple.com/ph/podcast/comparison-is-the-thief-of-joy/id1569849100?i=1000612238713   https://planetsark.com/yes-to-more-selflove-for-you/ Cingel, D.

Today we have the world's foremost authority on kratom returning to STEM-Talk after five years to give us an update on his research. Shortly after his 2018 interview on episode 61,  Dr. Christopher McCurdy and his lab at the University of Florida received two major grants from the National Institute of Drug Abuse to investigate the medical efficacy of kratom and its alkaloids, which we discuss in today's show. Mitragyna speciosa, or kratom, is an herbal leaf from a tropical evergreen tree in the coffee family.  It is native to Southeast Asia where it has been used in herbal medicine for hundreds of years. Kratom has become increasingly popular in the United States and throughout the world for recreational purposes. But kratom is also becoming recognized in the medical and research communities for its treatment for chronic pain as well as its potential to alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms. For more than 25 years, McCurdy has studied the design, synthesis, and development of drugs to treat pain, anxiety, and substance-abuse disorders. For the past 15 years, Chris and his lab have turned a lot of their attention toward kratom and its chemical components to better understand its potential to treat a multitude of conditions. Chris is a professor in the Medicinal Chemistry Department in the College of Pharmacy at the University of Florida. He also is director of the of school's Translational Drug Development Core and an Associate Dean for Faculty Development. Our interview with Chris comes on the heels of Florida passing the Kratom Consumer Protection Act, which mandates that kratom products sold in the state meet a high standard of product purity. In today's interview, we talk to Chris about the protection act as well as: -- The numerous studies he has been able to conduct thanks to his lab's two grants from the National Institute of Drug Abuse. -- The disparity between the traditional use of kratom and the new often highly concentrated manufactured products sold in the U.S. -- His lab's study examining the effects of lyophilized kratom tea and its ability to alleviate withdrawal symptoms of opioid-dependence. -- The potential of kratom alkaloids to serve as treatment of various substance abuse disorders. -- The benefits and risks associated with CBD usage. Show notes [00:03:21] Dawn opens the interview welcoming Chris back to STEM-Talk and mentions that his last appearance was episode 61 in 2018. Dawn explains that Chris has devoted much of his research to kratom, or Mitragyna speciosa, which is a traditional Southeast Asian medicine. It has been used by indigenous populations for centuries to increase endurance, enhance mood, treat pain, and mitigate opioid withdrawal symptoms. Dawn asks Chris to give a short overview of kratom and why it is attracting so much attention recently. [00:09:14] Ken mentions that at the time Chris first appeared on STEM-Talk, he was in the process of attracting funding to take a deep dive into kratom, which he has now secured from the National Institute of Drug Abuse. Ken asks Chris to give a general overview of the research they are conducting with this grant and what they are finding. [00:15:19] Dawn mentions that in Chris's last interview on STEM-Talk, he mentioned that researching kratom was difficult due to a lack of standardization and asks if this has changed. [00:21:11] Ken asks about a Thai product that is a freeze-dried leaf, which is coming to the US market, and if this product is more like what is used in Southeast Asia as opposed to the ground leaf material available in the U.S. market. [00:24:29] Dawn mentions that in 2020, Chris and a colleague published an article in the journal Current Opinion in Psychiatry on the need to address the disparity between the traditional use of kratom and the new often highly concentrated manufactured products sold in the U.S. and other countries. Dawn asks Chris to talk about the points made in this arti...

Every once in a while, my computer bogs down. Everything I do takes longer than it should. Some programs don't even work. When that happens, I do a forced shutdown and reboot the computer. A few minutes later, it runs like new. You can do the same thing for your brain. Rather than trying to think and do things with a fraction of your cognitive abilities, you can reboot your brain with a ten-minute power nap. Some of the world's leading companies encourage employees to sleep during their workday. For several years, companies like Google, Zappos, and Uber have had designated nap spaces and "nap pods" to help their workforce refresh their minds at midday.Costa, D. (2017). "Should Employers Encourage Power Naps?" Harvard Business Review. Retrieved from hbr.org And no, they aren't doing this to be 'cool' or 'hip.' There's a science-backed reason behind it. This midday snooze isn't your typical slumber; it's a 'power nap.' You might be wondering: "What is a power nap?" A power nap, as the name implies, is a short bout of sleep designed to quickly rejuvenate your brain, leaving you more alert, focused, and yes, more productive.Dhand, R., & Sohal, H. (2006). "Good sleep, bad sleep! The role of daytime naps in healthy adults." Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine. Retrieved from journals.lww.com Reports indicate that after incorporating power naps into their daily routine, employees at these forward-thinking companies have seen noticeable improvements in job performance, creativity, and overall job satisfaction. This is where the power of a power nap truly shines. In this article, we'll dive into the amazing brain-rebooting benefits of power naps, explore how long a power nap should ideally be, and discuss what happens to your brain during this period of rest. Along the way, we'll make sure you're armed with evidence-based knowledge so you can optimize your own routine for peak performance. As always, keep the conversation going: Ask a question or leave a comment. What is a Power Nap? To put it simply, a power nap is a brief sleep that occurs during waking hours. But there's a bit more to it than that. Scientifically speaking, a power nap isn't about catching up on lost sleep or lazily dozing off during a dull meeting.Mednick, S., & Ehrman, M. (2006). "Take a Nap! Change Your Life." Workman Publishing. It's a strategic, short sleep that's meant to revive your mental sharpness.Dinges, D. F., Pack, F., Williams, K., Gillen, K. A., Powell, J. W., Ott, G. E., Aptowicz, C., & Pack, A. I. (1995). "Cumulative sleepiness, mood disturbance, and psychomotor vigilance performance decrements during a week of sleep restricted to 4-5 hours per night." Sleep, 20(4), 267-277. A power nap can last anywhere between 10 to 30 minutes. The key here is to keep it 'short.' Why? Because if you nap for too long, you risk entering the deeper stages of sleep, which can leave you groggy and disoriented when you wake up. This phenomenon is known as sleep inertia. Think of a power nap as a pit stop for your brain—a quick, but effective pause in the midst of your daily race. Just like how a quick fuel top-up can help a racing car run more efficiently, a power nap is meant to recharge your brain, so you can zoom through the rest of your day with mental clarity and agility.Gillberg, M., Kecklund, G., Axelsson, J., & Akerstedt, T. (1996). "The effects of a short daytime nap after restricted night sleep." Sleep, 19(7), 570-575. In the following sections, we'll delve into the science behind power naps and their benefits, and answer the question that's probably lingering on your mind: "How long should a power nap be?" The Science Behind Power Naps When you lay your head down for a power nap, what exactly happens to your brain? The answer lies in the unique architecture of sleep. Sleep comprises cycles, each including various stages, from light sleep to deep sleep and the dream-infused Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep.Carskadon,

For years, maybe decades now, we've heard about how essential omega-3s, and more specifically, DHA and EPA, are for our health. Fish oil has been the standard source of omega-3s, and mounds of research support its use. However, some people don't eat animal products. Others have grown concerned about overfishing and would prefer an alternative source for omega-3 supplements. These consumer demands led to the development of algae oil, a vegan and sustainable omega-3 source. At first, consuming an oil derived from that slimy green stuff might sound strange. But, when you think about it, fish oil is high in omega-3s because fish eat algae. So, we shouldn't be surprised that if we can consume it in some way, we'll get the same omega-3s the fish get without needing to consume it from them. This article isn't to convince you to ditch fish oil. We use it regularly. Instead, I only hope to give you an alternative if fish oil isn't your thing. Hopefully, being healthy is your thing, and the research shows that for optimal health, you need to get in more omega-3s than your diet provides. What is algae oil? When you hear "algae", your mind might picture greenish blobs floating on the surface of a pond or ocean. But, there's so much more to these simple organisms. They are tiny, yet powerful, factories capable of creating essential nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids. So, what exactly is algae oil? Algae oil is a plant-based oil derived directly from algae. Unlike fish or krill oil, it doesn't come from animals, but from microalgae cultivated in controlled environments. This is why it's a go-to source of Omega-3 for those on a vegan or vegetarian diet. Here's how it works. Algae are grown in large, closed systems where they can be fed with carbon dioxide and sunlight. As they grow, they produce oil rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)—the most beneficial types of Omega-3 fatty acids.Lenihan-Geels, G., Bishop, K. S., & Ferguson, L. R. (2013). Alternative Sources of Omega-3 Fats: Can We Find a Sustainable Substitute for Fish? Nutrients, 5(4), 1301–1315. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu5041301 Once the algae are mature, the oil is extracted, purified, and voila—you've got algae oil. The best part is that this process doesn't contribute to overfishing or disrupt marine ecosystems. Quite the opposite: it's a sustainable practice that reduces carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. But beyond its green credentials, the real power of algae oil lies in its high-quality Omega-3 content. Algae Oil and Omega-3s Omega-3s are a type of polyunsaturated fat that your body can't produce on its own, meaning you need to get them from your diet.Swanson, D., Block, R., & Mousa, S. A. (2012). Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA: health benefits throughout life. Advances in nutrition, 3(1), 1–7. https://doi.org/10.3945/an.111.000893 There are three types you should know about: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). ALA is commonly found in plant-based foods like flaxseeds, chia seeds, and walnuts. Your body can convert ALA to EPA and DHA, but the conversion rate is extremely low.Brenna, J. T. (2002). Efficiency of conversion of alpha-linolenic acid to long chain n-3 fatty acids in man. Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 5(2), 127–132. https://doi.org/10.1097/00075197-200203000-00002 That's where EPA and DHA, the Omega-3 superstars, come into play. They're primarily found in fatty fish and algae. So where does algae oil fit into all of this? Algae oil is an incredibly potent source of DHA and EPA, meaning it provides these valuable Omega-3s in a form that your body can use directly. This is a significant advantage over plant-based Omega-3 sources, which only provide ALA. You might be wondering why we often associate fish with Omega-3s. The truth is, fish are rich in Omega-3s because they eat algae,

Low testosterone in men is becoming a bigger problem with each passing decade. But what is the most significant cause of hypogonadism (the technical term for low testosterone)? It isn't diet. It's not environmental toxins or concussions, though they can affect a guy's levels. It isn't even drinking Bud Light. As you might surmise from the article's title, the most significant cause of low testosterone is circadian syndrome, a condition related to a disrupted circadian rhythm and sleep debt. A new study shows how much of a problem this is for American men. In this article, I'll discuss some of the key findings and what we can do about them. What is the prevalence of low testosterone? The most current research shows that 20-50% of U.S. males have testosterone deficiency.Kwong JCC, Krakowsky Y, Grober E. Testosterone deficiency: a review and comparison of current guidelines. J Sex Med. (2019) 16:812–20. doi: 10.1016/j.jsxm.2019.03.262 The cutoff for clinically diagnosed testosterone deficiency is a blood level 300 ng/dl, which is where the data comes from, suggesting that up to half of American men have low testosterone. In comparison, optimal testosterone levels are between 800-1200 ng/dl.  The problem is likely worse than that, as American men are less likely to get a checkup with their doctor than women, and even if they do, their doctors rarely check testosterone levels. What happens to men with low testosterone? Low testosterone leads to physical, mental, and sexual problems, including: Physical Changes: increased body fat, decreased muscle mass and strength, fragile bones, hot flashes, fatigue, and increased cholesterol levels.Mulligan, T., Frick, M. F., Zuraw, Q. C., Stemhagen, A., & McWhirter, C. (2006). Prevalence of hypogonadism in males aged at least 45 years: the HIM study. International Journal of Clinical Practice, 60(7), 762-769. Mental and Emotional Changes: changes in mood and mental capacity, including feelings of depression, irritability, trouble concentrating, and impaired memory.Shores, M. M., Sloan, K. L., Matsumoto, A. M., Moceri, V. M., Felker, B., & Kivlahan, D. R. (2012). Increased incidence of diagnosed depressive illness in hypogonadal older men. Archives of General Psychiatry, 61(2), 162-167. Sexual Dysfunction: reduced sexual desire, fewer spontaneous erections, and infertility.Khera, M. (2016). Male hormones and men's quality of life. Current Opinion in Urology, 26(2), 152-157. In many cases, as men develop any of these health problems, the health problems themselves lead to a greater decline in testosterone, which worsens the problems, which further tanks testosterone. You must break the downward cycle, and sleep is likely the most important place to start. What is Circadian Syndrome (CircS)? According to the study authors, CircS is primarily diagnosed based on hypertension, dyslipidemia, central obesity, diabetes, short sleep duration, and depression. Each of those symptoms is mainly governed by circadian rhythms, which are major regulators in almost every aspect of human health and metabolism. Association between the prevalence rates of circadian syndrome and testosterone deficiency in US males: data from NHANES (2011–2016) The Circadian Syndrome is diagnosed when a person has at least 4 of the following: Central obesity: waist circumference ≥102 cm (40 inches); High triglycerides (TG): TG ≥150 mg/dl or using TG-lowering drugs Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol
