Today on Beating Cancer Daily, Saranne welcomes functional medicine expert Jacqui Bryan for an in-depth conversation about the growing trend of IV supplement drips, with a particular focus on NAC (N-acetylcysteine) and its relevance for those facing a cancer diagnosis. Together, they break down what NAC actually is, the distinction between obtaining it from food versus supplements, and the safety considerations for cancer patients, especially those with scarred veins or a history of intense treatments like Stage IV chemotherapy. Jacqui shares personal anecdotes and clinical wisdom, examining whether these trendy infusions offer real benefits or if a well-chosen diet might serve just as well—minus the needles. Jacqui Bryan is a certified nutrition specialist, whole health educator, health coach, and registered nurse, revered for her functional medicine approach to cancer care and recovery. Drawing on her expertise in nutrition and integrative health, Jacqui helps individuals navigate the complex intersection of supplements, food, and healing, always with a focus on safe, evidence-based recommendations for those living with or beyond cancer. "My first choice really is having this high-quality diet that will help you get similar benefits... it's not exactly the same, but NAC does have benefits for a certain population."  ~Jacqui Bryan Today on Beating Cancer Daily:·     IV NAC supplementation is gaining attention, but it's important to understand who truly benefits and the risks involved.·     NAC is both a prescription medication and a supplement, most often used to support liver function and to thin mucus in hospitals.·     The primary benefit of NAC supplementation or cysteine-rich foods is aiding the production of glutathione, a master antioxidant for cellular protection.·     Protein-rich foods like poultry, fish, eggs, and plant-based options such as whole grains, legumes, and seeds can provide cysteine for most people.·     Intense supplementation (including IV form) may only be necessary for those with specific deficiencies or medical needs after consulting a provider.·     Those undergoing active cancer treatment, especially with damaged veins from chemotherapy, may find dietary approaches more comfortable and practical than IV drips.·     NAC carries potential safety considerations, including interactions with medications and certain conditions such as bleeding disorders or asthma; medical oversight is essential.·     Most individuals eating a healthy diet without specific medical concerns do not need to supplement with NAC. 2025 People's Choice Podcast Awards Best Health Series FinalistRanked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025,and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 to 2025. Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in 140 countries across 7 continents and features over 400 original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor Saranne Rothberg.

This is  a short poem by Joanne Z. Tan: "Is life One Way or a Round Trip?"  using metaphor of creek, river, lake in Yosemite, rain, snow, lightning, thunders, clouds, and the fog in Golden Gate Bridge, symbolizing life's journey. To watch it as a 2-min video To read it as a blog    A tiny creek  In the high country of Yosemite Born of melting snow Filtered through the clefts of granite Streaming down a thawing peak.   Dripping, dropping, Dancing its way  Giggling, laughing, Roaring, swelling, Dashing out of the Valley.   Does it know where it goes? When will it end? And why? Who owns its life?   More creeks gather, Into the Merced River. Onward, forward, one way journey seaward,  Hither and thither, torrential, playful, Reckless, mournful,  Restless, peaceful.   The creek, the river, become the lake, Waters the crops along the way, feeds the climbers of the peak. Matters not If ever it reaches the sea.   Murmurs, shimmers, under the sun it simmers, rising water, skyward ascends, ignites lightning and thunder. Angelic or devilish, could care less, Rain and drizzle, descends. Between Heaven and Earth,  metamorphosis, transcends.    Into the misty fog reincarnates, the creek, the river, and the lake,  ghosts through the Golden Gate Bridge,  hugs the seedlings on the Marin Ridge.   The fog rolls into the hovering clouds snow flakes swirl and flutter  down on the peak That birthed the tiny creek.   If that creek is life itself, Is it one way or a round trip?   Insignificant, not self aware, It lives, one form or another,  knowingly or unknowingly A part of a grand design, Earthly and finite, Eternal and divine.    © Joanne Z.

As President Trump makes strategic economic plays to bring the western hemisphere under a shared global economic and strategic structure, Cubans are as close as they've ever been to toppling the communist regime that's destroyed their country. Trump controlling Venezuela's oil forces a geopolitical chess match in which he's already 5 steps ahead. Liberals meantime are planning a global walkout next week on the 1 year anniversary of Trump's second inauguration.

Proverbs 19:13–15 paints vivid pictures of how foolishness and laziness erode life from the inside out. A foolish son brings grief and ruin to his father, while a contentious spouse wears down a household like a constant drip from a leaking roof. The passage then turns inward, warning that laziness dulls the soul and leads to hunger and loss. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine how unchecked folly damages families, how strife drains joy, and how sloth quietly starves both body and spirit.

    Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests finally managed to return to the continent of Drago, making landfall once more in High Tide. With one more leg of their journey complete, they began planning for their next one: venturing into the orc lands to find a friend and to eliminate a couple tribes. But the journey won't be easy. They're planning on taking their sentient cart Cassie with them, though the danger of her getting stuck is high. But Pez has a plan! Why not cart with legs instead of wheels? And so, designs were drawn, materials bought, and artisans commissioned to upgrade the cart to survive the marshy, swamp-like region of the desolate orc lands.     Under the advice of Volcaro, they enlisted the help of a Goblin that is said to be their best choice for a guide. Impulsive, smelly, easily convinced, and a bit sticky fingered, Bogbo was hired to help lead them through the orc lands to their destinations and beyond.      We rejoin them now as time slips by and their plans get underway.   We have merch!

In “Washed With the Blood, Dripping With Grace,” Minister Frank Windham teaches from 1 Peter 4:1–11, reminding believers that because Christ suffered for us, we are called to live differently—dead to sin, alive in the Spirit, and walking in the power of God's grace. Drawing from Romans 3:23–24, Romans 5:9, and 1 John 2:15–17, Minister Windham urges believers to reject the passions of their former life, resist worldly pressure, live with self-control and sober-minded prayer, and demonstrate earnest love that covers a multitude of sins. This message calls believers to embrace their identity in Christ, use their gifts to serve others, and walk as those cleansed by His blood and empowered by His grace.

Do You Think A Four-Day Work Would Actually Work?Seven in 10 workers feel they could be just as productive in a four-day work week, according to new research. Things That Make Insomnia WorseStaying in bed longer - Experts advise a sleep routine of getting up at the same time every morning and only getting into bed when you're truly tired.Cutting out screens completely - Lying in bed without something to focus on can lead to overthinking, which is terrible for sleep. That's when having something to distract your thoughts can be helpful, but stick with something calm, like a nature documentary or soothing podcast.Swearing off caffeine forever - Caffeine blocks adenosine, which makes you sleepy, so if an afternoon cup of tea keeps you awake at night, skip it. Trying too hard to sleep “right” - Trackers, gadgets and products to enhance sleep make it easy to obsess over snoozing, but that can backfire and give you anxiety. Your body knows how to rest and micromanaging it can add pressure, instead of helping.Expecting consistency - Thanks to things like age, stress, hormones and even the weather, some nights sleep will be easier than others, and that's normal. You won't get a solid eight hours every night, so don't expect it or beat yourself up if the popular advice isn't helping you.⠀House Noises You Shouldn't IgnoreRushing water noises - Do a quick check for pooling water in areas that are prone to leaking, like your sink or bathroom, and checking the water meter is also a good idea. Buzzing from lights - If you hear any sounds coming from your outlets or switches, call a licensed electrician.Whistling or hissing noises near gas-based appliances - This could be a “really serious indicator of a potential danger in your home that could lead to a house fire,” Dripping faucet sounds - It's less of an immediate emergency, but it can cost you more the longer you ignore it.Gurgling toilets - If it gurgles after you flush, that would be indication that you either have a backup and the water can pass but it's struggling. Second Date UpdateAmanda called us about Gabe. They matched on Bumble and met for coffee in Redwood City. Amanda said the conversation was fun, she was smiling the whole time, and she really thought there was chemistry. But Gabe never reached out again.

The Aunties have returned… and baby, absence really did make the heart grow fonder.We took a little time to rest, reset, and refill our cups with luxury, pleasure, and just the right amount of mischief. Now? We're back..... silk robes sliding off our shoulders, heels clicking across marble floors, and laughter spilling like fine champagne.PGC After Dark has always been about more than conversation… it's about creating a vibe. And when the Aunties show up, you know it's going to be bold, unfiltered, and dripping with the kind of energy that makes you lean in closer.We're talking late nights with red wine on our lips and secrets in our throats. We're talking grown-folk talk that teases, pleases, and pushes every boundary you thought you had. We're talking about that sweet spot where luxury meets lust, where wisdom meets wild, and where every story is too good not to tell.This isn't just a return, it's a renaissance. The Crazy Rich Aunties are back outside, dressed in desire and dripping in decadence, ready to remind you that grown and sexy has never gone out of style.In this episode, we're catching you up on what the Aunties have been up to behind closed doors..... self-indulgence, soft life living, and maybe a few stories too wild for daylight hours. Expect conversations that are equal parts playful and provocative: relationships, pleasure, power, and the kind of wisdom only an Auntie can deliver (with a side of laughter and shade).So dim the lights, pour something strong, and slide into our world. Because when the Aunties get together, it's always a little classy, a little nasty, and a whole lot of unforgettable. It's grown-folk talk time, baby… and we're turnin' up the volume on the realness.

Episode 990- Jason Interviews Brian Gonsar DRACULA'S BRUNCH CLUBDracula's Brunch Club graphic novel: Have you ever wondered how vampires got their taste for blood? In Dracula's Brunch Club, it all started with a crimson-red donut, dripping and oozing with spooky secrets—I mean, jelly. Dripping and oozing with non-spooky-tasting JELLY. Get ready to sink your fangs into the hilarious new graphic novel Blood, treachery, and humor from two promising newcomers not enough? Count Dracula is not your average vampire. Well, sure, he's undead, hates garlic, and will burn up in sunlight––but unlike other vampires, he has a knack for baking. And it's his brunch club's famous blood-orange-jelly donuts that give his fellow vampires the energy source they need to live forever. But when Transylvania experiences a mysterious jelly shortage, it allows his nemesis, Constantine, to swoop in and steal the brunch club—and the vampires' loyalty—from Dracula. But it's not just jelly donuts at stake. When townsfolk start to go missing, Dracula suspects Constantine has far more sinister motives lurking that could threaten everything vampires and humans have worked for. With the help of his chef and human friend, Elena, Dracula must find a new energy source before every vampire and human turns on him and he loses his coveted brunch club forever.Buy It: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Draculas-Brunch-Club/Brian-Gonsar/9781637158401Theme Songs by Drew: Donuts and Darkness & Jelly DreamsLike & Subscribe on Youtube www.youtube.com/@comicsforfunandprofit5331Patreon https://www.patreon.com/comicsfunprofit Merch https://comicsfunprofit.threadless.comYour Support Keeps Our Show Going On Our Way to a Thousand EpisodesDonate Here https://bit.ly/36s7YeLAll the C4FaP links you could ever need  https://beacons.ai/comicsfunprofit Listen To the Episode Here: https://comcsforfunandprofit.podomatic.com/
