Have you heard of conscious parenting? Dr. Shefali, doctor of clinical psychology, presents a paradigm shift in parenting by prioritizing connection over correction. By providing insight into what drove her passion towards the psychology of parenting and how parents can shift from a reactive response of correction to connection. Then, she discussed the role of awareness in changing parental approaches to discipline and how to approach a public emotional tantrum. She shares the three stages of conscious parenting and how it is never too late to start parent consciousness. By understanding that there is no "best" way of parenting, Dr. Shefali shares her thoughts on family therapy, how expectations influence childhood, what it takes to get your child to love the same hobbies as you, the stages of parenting, and how to navigate social expectations around raising a child.

The mounting death toll from the opioid crisis in the United States continues to wreak havoc in cities, towns, and rural communities across the nation. Over the past two decades, the number of people dying from opioid overdoses in New York, and across the United States, are rising each year.  But there is something that some public health experts say could help. Narcan, the brand name for the drug naloxone, is an overdose prevention tool that anyone can use. It's a simple nasal spray, it's legal, it's pretty quick and easy to learn how to use, and it can reverse the effects of opioid overdose, and potentially save a life. In March, the Food and Drug Administration authorized over the counter sales of Narcan, making a potentially live-saving drug even more widely available. A CDC study from 2020 found that nearly 40 percent of overdose deaths occurred while another person was nearby — which means the more people carrying Narcan, the better chance there is of saving a life. Takeaway producer Katerina Barton reports, and spoke with Joanna Kaufman, a nursing student, full spectrum doula and priestess in training, living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, whose brother, Benjamin, died in 2019 from a fatal opioid overdose. Katerina also received a Narcan training from Elena Rotov, an overdose prevention coordinator, Hep C/HIV tester, and Hep C coordinator at the Brooklyn-based harm reduction center After Hours Project. Narcan is currently accessible and mostly distributed outside of the traditional health care system from nonprofits and harm reduction organizations. It is also available in some states at participating pharmacies. Most cities offer free community Narcan trainings, where you will receive a free dose of Narcan, and you can also find trainings at nonprofits and harm reduction organizations near you, and online.New York City Public Overdose Prevention Programs

Episode #78 In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions: 1. How do you manage fasting when training? [01:48] 2. When you track your weight on the scales weekly, why does the weight shown seem to go from the same to a loss (or not) between days 6 and 7? How do you get a true reading? [10:16] 3. I've been eating low carb and fasting now for more than 5years. I've fallen off the low-carb wagon for months. Recently, I did a reset three-day fast and I wanted to continue but I felt horrible. My ketones were pretty high. Does this mean my blood is acidic? Would it have been dangerous to continue? Or am I just not yet fat-adapted again? [15:47]  4. I have an IUD and don't have a period. How can I figure out when my cycle is? I like the concept of eating differently at different stages of my cycle? [23:56]  5.

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Tuesday, May 9th, 2023. Samaritan Ministries: Don’t be limited by restrictive networks. There’s another way. A Biblical way. Samaritan Ministries. Say you have a medical need. You don’t have to check and see what hospital is in your network, or be concerned about the doctor being in-network, too. No. You go to the hospital you choose, and don’t give a second thought as to what’s in-network and what’s not, because with Samaritan Ministries, you’re in control of your health care. Afterwards, fellow members pray for you, and send money directly to you to help you pay your medical bills. And when they have a medical need, you’ll do the same for them. That’s what Biblical health care sharing looks like. Check it out today at samaritan ministries dot org slash cross politic First, we start with the news of a coronation for our friends across the pond. https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/06/europe/coronation-king-charles-ckc-gbr-intl/index.html King Charles III is crowned in once-in-a-generation ceremony Britain’s King Charles III has been crowned in a once-in-a-generation royal event witnessed by hundreds of high-profile guests inside Westminster Abbey, as well as tens of thousands of well-wishers who gathered in central London despite the rain. While Charles became King on the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II last September, the coronation on Saturday was the formal crowning of the monarch. The service was a profoundly religious affair, reflecting the fact that aside from being head of state of the United Kingdom and 14 other countries, Charles is also the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. In the most significant moment of the day, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby placed the 360-year-old St. Edward’s Crown on Charles’ head. The spiritual leader of the Anglican Church then declared: “God Save the King.” The intricate service lasted just over two hours – about an hour shorter than Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953 – and followed a traditional template that has stayed much the same for more than 1,000 years. However, it has been modernized in certain key ways. The archbishop acknowledged the multiple faiths observed in the UK during the ceremony, saying the Church of England “will seek to foster an environment in which people of all faiths may live freely.” The King took the Coronation Oath and became the first monarch to pray aloud at his coronation. In his prayer he asked to “be a blessing” to people “of every faith and conviction.” In what is considered the most sacred part of the ceremony, the King was anointed with holy oil by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He was also presented with the coronation regalia, including the royal Robe and Stole, in what is known as the investiture part of the service. Then, for the first time in coronation history, the archbishop invited the British public, as well as those from “other Realms,” to recite a pledge of allegiance to the newly crowned monarch and his “heirs and successors.” Ahead of the event, some parts of the British media and public interpreted the invitation as a command, reporting that people had been “asked” and “called” to swear allegiance to the King. In the face of such criticism, the Church of England revised the text of the liturgy so that members of the public would be given a choice between saying simply “God save King Charles” or reciting the full pledge of allegiance. The ceremony also included a reading from the Bible by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and, in another coronation first, gospel music. Once the King was crowned, his wife, Queen Camilla, was crowned in her own, shorter ceremony with Queen Mary’s Crown – marking the first time in recent history that a new crown wasn’t made specifically for this occasion. After the ceremony, the newly crowned King and Queen rode back to Buckingham Palace in a much larger parade, featuring 4,000 members of the armed forces, 250 horses and 19 military bands. The pomp and pageantry concluded with a royal salute and the customary balcony appearance by the King and family members. They and the crowds below watched a flypast of military aircraft, slimmed down because of the poor weather. Despite the splendor of the occasion, it has not been without controversy. Some have objected to millions of pounds of taxpayers’ money being spent on a lavish ceremony at a time when millions of Britons are suffering a severe cost-of-living crisis. Security is by far the most costly element of large events and the Met said ahead of time that Saturday would be the largest one-day policing operation in decades, with more than 11,500 officers on duty in London. The coronation has also attracted anti-monarchy demonstrations, with a small number of protesters arrested in central London on Saturday morning before the event began. Republic, a campaign group that calls for the abolition of the monarchy, said the idea of the “homage of the people” was “offensive, tone deaf and a gesture that holds the people in contempt.” Some eyebrows were also raised earlier this week when a controversial and widely criticized UK public order bill came into force. Since the death of Queen Elizabeth II last year, there have been a number of instances of anti-monarchists turning up at royal engagements to voice their grievances against the institution. The new rules, signed into law by the King on Tuesday, just days before the coronation, empower the police to take stronger action against peaceful protesters. https://thepostmillennial.com/biden-to-veto-house-remain-in-mexico-bill?utm_campaign=64487 Biden to veto House 'remain in Mexico' bill On Monday, the White House announced that Joe Biden would veto an immigration bill coming out of the House of Representatives that would reinstitute several Trump-era policies including construction of the border wall and the remain in Mexico policy, which stated that anyone seeking asylum had to wait in Mexico as their claim was processed. According to the Associated Press, the White House Office of Management and Budget said in a statement, "While we welcome Congress' engagement on meaningful steps to address immigration and the challenges at the border, this bill would make things worse, not better. Because this bill does very little to actually increase border security while doing a great deal to trample on the nation’s core values and international obligations, it should be rejected." On Thursday, the House is set to vote on the 213-page Secure the Border Act. Thursday also marks the expiration of Title 42, the Trump-era policy instituted under Covid that granted Border Patrol and Department of Homeland Security officials the ability to expel illegal immigrants over health concerns. The Secure the Border Act would also require employers to verify a worker's immigration status for employment and institute the E-Verify system House Majority Leader Steve Scalise said, "Joe Biden sent a message that America’s border is open, and millions of people answered that call and started coming across our border illegally. We’re going to show the president how to solve the problem." The Daily Mail reports, the Secure the Border Act would limit federal funds for NGOs (non-governmental organizations) that aid illegal immigrants crossing the border, would end Biden's expedited entry policy for Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, Haitians, and Cubans, and grant more money for hiring additional border agents. Joe Biden loosened restrictions along the southern border after he took office and HHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the announcement that migrants seeking asylum would be permitted entry into the US as would unaccompanied minors. US Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz said that over the weekend 26,382 apprehensions were made by border patrol and that 11 pounds of fentanyl and 83 pounds of meth were seized. Mexican cartels have exploited Biden's border crisis, with 2,378,944 illegal immigrant encounters reported in the 2022 fiscal year and 1,659,206 reported in FY 2021, by trafficking humans and drugs, especially fentanyl across the border in record numbers. https://www.dailywire.com/news/airlines-may-soon-be-on-the-hook-for-delayed-and-canceled-flights-transportation-dept-says Airlines May Soon Be On The Hook For Delayed And Canceled Flights, Transportation Dept Says Transportation Secretary Pete Boo-tuh-jeg announced on Monday that the agency introduced rules requiring airlines to reimburse customers who incur expenses due to certain delayed and canceled flights, a move which comes as the industry faces elevated demand and a constrained labor force. The proposed rules, which would apply when an airline delays a flight for more than three hours or cancels a flight for a “controllable” reason, would mandate that the firms offer compensation for stranded passengers, as well as a meal or meal voucher, overnight accommodations, and ground transportation between the airport and hotel. “When an airline causes a flight cancellation or delay, passengers should not foot the bill,” Buttigieg said in a statement, noting that the proposed reimbursement rules would be the first in American history. The move comes after Southwest Airlines experienced holiday travel disruptions last year due to extreme winter weather conditions, staff shortages, and an outdated computer system. The carrier canceled thousands of flights days after other carriers had resumed normal operations. Buttigieg told the company, which has since promised to compensate passengers for all expenses incurred during that time, that the disruptions were “unacceptable” and promised that his agency would exercise “the fullest extent of its investigative and enforcement powers” to ensure customers are reimbursed. The new proposals also occur as the sector faces a severely limited pool of available pilots and frontline staff. Carriers previously encouraged commercial pilots to retire as worldwide lockdowns caused demand for air travel to plummet in the spring of 2020, worsening a previous trend toward a lack of available pilots. Elevated prices for airline tickets and a rapid return in travel demand, however, are now prompting lawmakers to consider the problem. Regional Airline Association CEO Faye Malarkey Black told members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee last month that more than 50% of current pilots would be forced to retire within the next 15 years because of federal rules mandating that pilots exit their positions once they reach 65 years of age, even as only 8% of pilots are below 30 years of age due to the high cost of flight education. Buttigieg has opposed legislation that would increase the retirement threshold to 67 years of age, contending that “the answer is to make sure we have as many and as good pilots ready to take their place, to have a stronger pipeline.” https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/fecal-transplant-pill-fda-approval-rcna81779 FDA approves first pill for fecal transplants, made from healthy bacteria in human waste U.S. health officials on Wednesday approved the first pill made from healthy bacteria found in human waste to fight dangerous gut infections — an easier way of performing so-called fecal transplants. The new treatment from Seres Therapeutics provides a simpler, rigorously tested version of stool-based procedures that some medical specialists have used for more than a decade to help patients. The Food and Drug Administration cleared the capsules for adults 18 and older who face risks from repeat infections with Clostridium difficile, a bacteria that can cause severe nausea, cramping and diarrhea. diff is particularly dangerous when it reoccurs, leading to between 15,000 and 30,000 deaths per year. It can be killed with antibiotics but they also destroy good bacteria that live in the gut, leaving it more susceptible to future infections. The new capsules are approved for patients who have already received antibiotic treatment. More than 10 years ago, some doctors began reporting success with fecal transplants — using stool from a healthy donor — to restore the gut’s healthy balance and prevent reinfections. The FDA approved the first pharmaceutical-grade version of the treatment last year from a rival drugmaker, Ferring Pharmaceuticals. But that company’s product — like most of the original procedures — must be delivered via the rectum. Cambridge, Mass.-based Seres will market its drug as a less invasive option. The treatment will be sold under the brand name Vowst and comes as a regimen of four daily capsules taken for three consecutive days. Both of the recent FDA approvals are the product of years of pharmaceutical industry research into the microbiome, the community of bacteria, viruses and fungi that live in the gut. Currently most fecal transplants are provided by a network of stool banks that have popped up at medical institutions and hospitals across the country. While the availability of new FDA-approved options is expected to decrease demand for donations from stool banks, some plan to stay open. The FDA warned in its approval announcement that the drug “may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents. It is also possible for Vowst to contain food allergens,” the agency noted. The FDA approved the treatment based on a 180-patient study in which nearly 88% of patients taking the capsules did not experience reinfection after 8 weeks, compared with 60% of those who received dummy pills.

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Tuesday, May 9th, 2023. Samaritan Ministries: Don’t be limited by restrictive networks. There’s another way. A Biblical way. Samaritan Ministries. Say you have a medical need. You don’t have to check and see what hospital is in your network, or be concerned about the doctor being in-network, too. No. You go to the hospital you choose, and don’t give a second thought as to what’s in-network and what’s not, because with Samaritan Ministries, you’re in control of your health care. Afterwards, fellow members pray for you, and send money directly to you to help you pay your medical bills. And when they have a medical need, you’ll do the same for them. That’s what Biblical health care sharing looks like. Check it out today at samaritan ministries dot org slash cross politic First, we start with the news of a coronation for our friends across the pond. https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/06/europe/coronation-king-charles-ckc-gbr-intl/index.html King Charles III is crowned in once-in-a-generation ceremony Britain’s King Charles III has been crowned in a once-in-a-generation royal event witnessed by hundreds of high-profile guests inside Westminster Abbey, as well as tens of thousands of well-wishers who gathered in central London despite the rain. While Charles became King on the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II last September, the coronation on Saturday was the formal crowning of the monarch. The service was a profoundly religious affair, reflecting the fact that aside from being head of state of the United Kingdom and 14 other countries, Charles is also the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. In the most significant moment of the day, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby placed the 360-year-old St. Edward’s Crown on Charles’ head. The spiritual leader of the Anglican Church then declared: “God Save the King.” The intricate service lasted just over two hours – about an hour shorter than Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953 – and followed a traditional template that has stayed much the same for more than 1,000 years. However, it has been modernized in certain key ways. The archbishop acknowledged the multiple faiths observed in the UK during the ceremony, saying the Church of England “will seek to foster an environment in which people of all faiths may live freely.” The King took the Coronation Oath and became the first monarch to pray aloud at his coronation. In his prayer he asked to “be a blessing” to people “of every faith and conviction.” In what is considered the most sacred part of the ceremony, the King was anointed with holy oil by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He was also presented with the coronation regalia, including the royal Robe and Stole, in what is known as the investiture part of the service. Then, for the first time in coronation history, the archbishop invited the British public, as well as those from “other Realms,” to recite a pledge of allegiance to the newly crowned monarch and his “heirs and successors.” Ahead of the event, some parts of the British media and public interpreted the invitation as a command, reporting that people had been “asked” and “called” to swear allegiance to the King. In the face of such criticism, the Church of England revised the text of the liturgy so that members of the public would be given a choice between saying simply “God save King Charles” or reciting the full pledge of allegiance. The ceremony also included a reading from the Bible by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and, in another coronation first, gospel music. Once the King was crowned, his wife, Queen Camilla, was crowned in her own, shorter ceremony with Queen Mary’s Crown – marking the first time in recent history that a new crown wasn’t made specifically for this occasion. After the ceremony, the newly crowned King and Queen rode back to Buckingham Palace in a much larger parade, featuring 4,000 members of the armed forces, 250 horses and 19 military bands. The pomp and pageantry concluded with a royal salute and the customary balcony appearance by the King and family members. They and the crowds below watched a flypast of military aircraft, slimmed down because of the poor weather. Despite the splendor of the occasion, it has not been without controversy. Some have objected to millions of pounds of taxpayers’ money being spent on a lavish ceremony at a time when millions of Britons are suffering a severe cost-of-living crisis. Security is by far the most costly element of large events and the Met said ahead of time that Saturday would be the largest one-day policing operation in decades, with more than 11,500 officers on duty in London. The coronation has also attracted anti-monarchy demonstrations, with a small number of protesters arrested in central London on Saturday morning before the event began. Republic, a campaign group that calls for the abolition of the monarchy, said the idea of the “homage of the people” was “offensive, tone deaf and a gesture that holds the people in contempt.” Some eyebrows were also raised earlier this week when a controversial and widely criticized UK public order bill came into force. Since the death of Queen Elizabeth II last year, there have been a number of instances of anti-monarchists turning up at royal engagements to voice their grievances against the institution. The new rules, signed into law by the King on Tuesday, just days before the coronation, empower the police to take stronger action against peaceful protesters. https://thepostmillennial.com/biden-to-veto-house-remain-in-mexico-bill?utm_campaign=64487 Biden to veto House 'remain in Mexico' bill On Monday, the White House announced that Joe Biden would veto an immigration bill coming out of the House of Representatives that would reinstitute several Trump-era policies including construction of the border wall and the remain in Mexico policy, which stated that anyone seeking asylum had to wait in Mexico as their claim was processed. According to the Associated Press, the White House Office of Management and Budget said in a statement, "While we welcome Congress' engagement on meaningful steps to address immigration and the challenges at the border, this bill would make things worse, not better. Because this bill does very little to actually increase border security while doing a great deal to trample on the nation’s core values and international obligations, it should be rejected." On Thursday, the House is set to vote on the 213-page Secure the Border Act. Thursday also marks the expiration of Title 42, the Trump-era policy instituted under Covid that granted Border Patrol and Department of Homeland Security officials the ability to expel illegal immigrants over health concerns. The Secure the Border Act would also require employers to verify a worker's immigration status for employment and institute the E-Verify system House Majority Leader Steve Scalise said, "Joe Biden sent a message that America’s border is open, and millions of people answered that call and started coming across our border illegally. We’re going to show the president how to solve the problem." The Daily Mail reports, the Secure the Border Act would limit federal funds for NGOs (non-governmental organizations) that aid illegal immigrants crossing the border, would end Biden's expedited entry policy for Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, Haitians, and Cubans, and grant more money for hiring additional border agents. Joe Biden loosened restrictions along the southern border after he took office and HHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the announcement that migrants seeking asylum would be permitted entry into the US as would unaccompanied minors. US Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz said that over the weekend 26,382 apprehensions were made by border patrol and that 11 pounds of fentanyl and 83 pounds of meth were seized. Mexican cartels have exploited Biden's border crisis, with 2,378,944 illegal immigrant encounters reported in the 2022 fiscal year and 1,659,206 reported in FY 2021, by trafficking humans and drugs, especially fentanyl across the border in record numbers. https://www.dailywire.com/news/airlines-may-soon-be-on-the-hook-for-delayed-and-canceled-flights-transportation-dept-says Airlines May Soon Be On The Hook For Delayed And Canceled Flights, Transportation Dept Says Transportation Secretary Pete Boo-tuh-jeg announced on Monday that the agency introduced rules requiring airlines to reimburse customers who incur expenses due to certain delayed and canceled flights, a move which comes as the industry faces elevated demand and a constrained labor force. The proposed rules, which would apply when an airline delays a flight for more than three hours or cancels a flight for a “controllable” reason, would mandate that the firms offer compensation for stranded passengers, as well as a meal or meal voucher, overnight accommodations, and ground transportation between the airport and hotel. “When an airline causes a flight cancellation or delay, passengers should not foot the bill,” Buttigieg said in a statement, noting that the proposed reimbursement rules would be the first in American history. The move comes after Southwest Airlines experienced holiday travel disruptions last year due to extreme winter weather conditions, staff shortages, and an outdated computer system. The carrier canceled thousands of flights days after other carriers had resumed normal operations. Buttigieg told the company, which has since promised to compensate passengers for all expenses incurred during that time, that the disruptions were “unacceptable” and promised that his agency would exercise “the fullest extent of its investigative and enforcement powers” to ensure customers are reimbursed. The new proposals also occur as the sector faces a severely limited pool of available pilots and frontline staff. Carriers previously encouraged commercial pilots to retire as worldwide lockdowns caused demand for air travel to plummet in the spring of 2020, worsening a previous trend toward a lack of available pilots. Elevated prices for airline tickets and a rapid return in travel demand, however, are now prompting lawmakers to consider the problem. Regional Airline Association CEO Faye Malarkey Black told members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee last month that more than 50% of current pilots would be forced to retire within the next 15 years because of federal rules mandating that pilots exit their positions once they reach 65 years of age, even as only 8% of pilots are below 30 years of age due to the high cost of flight education. Buttigieg has opposed legislation that would increase the retirement threshold to 67 years of age, contending that “the answer is to make sure we have as many and as good pilots ready to take their place, to have a stronger pipeline.” https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/fecal-transplant-pill-fda-approval-rcna81779 FDA approves first pill for fecal transplants, made from healthy bacteria in human waste U.S. health officials on Wednesday approved the first pill made from healthy bacteria found in human waste to fight dangerous gut infections — an easier way of performing so-called fecal transplants. The new treatment from Seres Therapeutics provides a simpler, rigorously tested version of stool-based procedures that some medical specialists have used for more than a decade to help patients. The Food and Drug Administration cleared the capsules for adults 18 and older who face risks from repeat infections with Clostridium difficile, a bacteria that can cause severe nausea, cramping and diarrhea. diff is particularly dangerous when it reoccurs, leading to between 15,000 and 30,000 deaths per year. It can be killed with antibiotics but they also destroy good bacteria that live in the gut, leaving it more susceptible to future infections. The new capsules are approved for patients who have already received antibiotic treatment. More than 10 years ago, some doctors began reporting success with fecal transplants — using stool from a healthy donor — to restore the gut’s healthy balance and prevent reinfections. The FDA approved the first pharmaceutical-grade version of the treatment last year from a rival drugmaker, Ferring Pharmaceuticals. But that company’s product — like most of the original procedures — must be delivered via the rectum. Cambridge, Mass.-based Seres will market its drug as a less invasive option. The treatment will be sold under the brand name Vowst and comes as a regimen of four daily capsules taken for three consecutive days. Both of the recent FDA approvals are the product of years of pharmaceutical industry research into the microbiome, the community of bacteria, viruses and fungi that live in the gut. Currently most fecal transplants are provided by a network of stool banks that have popped up at medical institutions and hospitals across the country. While the availability of new FDA-approved options is expected to decrease demand for donations from stool banks, some plan to stay open.

Psychedelic drugs have long been been used for their mind-altering effects. Now, they are making their way into western medicine as a treatment for mental health disorders. From July, psychiatrists in Australia will be able to prescribe MDMA for post-traumatic stress disorder, making it the first country in the world to recognise psychedelics as medicines. The US could soon follow, with plans for the US Food and Drug Administration to be asked for approval to treat PTSD with MDMA this year. Ian Sample speaks to correspondent Hannah Devlin about how the science behind psychedelic therapy has progressed, and hears from Prof Celia Morgan about what treatment is actually like, what we know about the risks and what's left to learn.

Dr. Jon Oatley, associate dean for research for the College of Veterinary Medicine and a professor at Washington State University discusses advances in gene-editing in livestock, a technique that alters an animal's genetic code to focus on desired traits. His team recently received U.S. Food and Drug Administration investigational authorization to create food for humans from gene-edited pigs in a process that is akin to traditional selective breeding. Gene-editing also could play an important role in meeting the growing global demand for protein over the next few decades.

The American College of Pediatricians scored a major victory last month when a federal judge ruled in its favor and halted the Food and Drug Administration's approval of mifepristone, a drug used in chemical abortions.Just weeks later, the organization endured a cyberattack carried out by hackers intending to cause major damage. As if that wasn't enough, news of the hack was then leaked to a hostile journalist in a fleeting attempt to damage the organization's reputation.Since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, pro-life institutions and individuals have faced sustained attacks. The militant group Jane's Revenge vandalized pregnancy resource centers, the FBI arrested a pro-life father in Pennsylvania, and a deranged pro-abortion man plotted an assassination attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh.These unrelenting attacks show no sign of abating. Look no further than the latest assault on the American College of Pediatricians, also known as ACPeds.Dr. Jill Simons, executive director of the American College of Pediatricians, joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to explain what happened and why she's not backing down from her mission to defend life and protect the most vulnerable in our society.

As a society, we are eating and drinking low-calorie sweeteners more and more. Researchers are working to understand the long-term impact of such sweeteners for adults and, of course, for children. This interview is part of a series on the impact of sweeteners. Our guest today is Dr. Allison Sylvetsky, Associate Professor in the Department of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences at the George Washington University - Milken Institute School of Public Health. Interview Summary   Boy, these sweeteners are in the news all the time, and that's been the case for many years. And people are really interested in whether they're safe, whether they help people control their weight and the like. You have a vast knowledge on this, and I'd like to begin with kind of a fundamental question. So, how has the consumption of these sweeteners changed over time? How much are they being used and who is using them?   What's really interesting is that these sweeteners have been around, at least some of them, for quite a while. But what we've seen is that as there's been more and more emphasis on reducing the consumption of added sugars and sugar sweetened beverages, there's been a widespread increase in the use of various low-calorie sweeteners in the food supply, which of course has been followed by increases of consumption. So, across all different population subgroups, we're seeing increases in the intake of low-calorie artificial sweeteners.   So, how much are they used and who are the people who are using them the most?   So, in terms of how much they're used, that depends to some extent on how we look at this, because it's very hard to actually quantify the intake given that manufacturers are not required to disclose the amount of different artificial or low-calorie sweeteners in food and beverage products. So, most of the data that we have to rely on either comes from household purchasing data or comes from self-reported dietary intake data from large surveys, for example, the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. But, what we've seen in these data are that low-calorie sweeteners are being used across the population, though the highest consumption or highest prevalence of consumption is seen in females, in individuals with diabetes and obesity, individuals from higher-income households, and also older adults and older individuals. However, more and more, we are also seeing consumption of low-calorie sweeteners among children, and consumption in products that people wouldn't necessarily expect would contain these artificial or low-calorie sweeteners.   Let's talk about that. So, where do the low-calorie sweeteners show up in the food supply? Has this changed over time?   This has definitely changed over time. Several decades ago, you would think of low-calorie sweeteners as being in diet beverages, which of course they still are. Or in sweetener packets that you find on the tabletop. For example, Sweet'n Low that contains saccharin or Equal that contains aspartame. But now we're seeing these sweeteners showing up across product categories. So, in products including light yogurts, artificially sweetened yogurts, dairy desserts such as ice cream, snack foods such as microwave popcorn, cereals, ready-to-heat oatmeals, all sorts of different products, protein bars, protein shakes, really, you name it. I've actually even seen low-calorie sweeteners show up in pickled ginger that usually is used along with sushi. So, again, places where people just wouldn't expect to find them. We see these sweeteners popping up, and this is more and more the case as there's been more and more emphasis on reducing the intake of added sugars.   Low-calorie sweeteners in microwave popcorn, who would've thought? I mean, that's just one example and you gave other ones about where these things are showing up. So, big time exposure to these, isn't there?   Exactly. Also, something like microwave popcorn typically wouldn't be thought of as a diet food, and that's part of what is very confusing to consumers. It's one thing if the product is labeled as "diet" or "no sugar added" even. Not that everybody would recognize that as perhaps being suggestive of having a low-calorie sweetener, but in products like microwave popcorn or certain English muffins, for example, people typically aren't using these products as a way to manage their weight or as some sort of a diet or reduced calorie food, because they're not diet or low-calorie foods.   Let's get right to one of the most fundamental questions of all. What are your thoughts on how these low-calorie sweeteners affect health?   So, that is the big question, and there's a lot of uncertainty and there's been more and more research on the topic, which has been exciting and informative. But there still are a lot of questions with regard to how these sweeteners affect health. One thing that is important to clarify right from the start is that, at least the work that I do and the work that a lot of people are focused on to understand their health effects, is different from more of a traditional toxicological safety assessment. So, when I'm talking about their effects on health, I'm really referring to their metabolic and health effects, their role in weight management and chronic disease prevention as opposed to more traditional safety outcomes. Because of course, these low-calorie sweeteners have been reviewed and approved for use in food by the Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory agencies worldwide. But, in terms of weight management and chronic disease prevention, what's really interesting is, it depends on the type of evidence that you look at. There have been quite a number of randomized control trials primarily in adults that have shown that when added sugars or sugar-sweetened beverages are replaced with low-calorie sweeteners on a one-to-one basis, there typically is either a neutral effect or a modest benefit. Where we do see some modest reductions in energy intake as well as a modest reduction in body weight. But that doesn't necessarily tell the whole story because that doesn't necessarily reflect how they're used, especially given what we've just discussed about the use of low-calorie sweeteners in the food supply. What's interesting is when we look at observational evidence from large perspective cohort studies, typically the vast majority of these studies show positive associations between consumption of diet beverages and low-calorie sweeteners with a variety of adverse health outcomes. This includes higher risk of obesity, higher risk of diabetes, heart disease, and some recent studies also showing an increased risk of certain types of cancer.   So that then leads to the question of: well, what explains this discrepancy? There are several explanations. One is that there are flaws to any type of study, including that a lot of these studies that look at associations may be subject to reverse causality or sort of a chicken and egg situation - which is what's happening first. But they're also very plausible biological and behavioral mechanisms that have been put forth to explain how low-calorie sweetener intake may be causally related to some of these outcomes. And that's really where a lot of the research is focused right now, is trying to understand, what do these low calorie sweeteners actually do metabolically in the body and how does that impact health?   That whole range of metabolic consequences is a very interesting one. You led off this discussion by mentioning toxicology, and I realize that you're not a toxicologist, nor am I, but I do have a question in that arena. Whatever standards of the FDA uses to assess safety for these things, I'm assuming it's a range of standard toxicological tests, do you think there's still a chance that these things, even though they're considered safe, will have long-term consequences that people don't know about yet? Just because some of the newer ones, for example, haven't been on the market long enough for people to have 20 or 30 years of exposure? Is there a reason to be concerned on that front, do you think?   I would say there's a reason to be concerned in terms of while the levels that they're consumed are believed to be safe in terms of, as you said, these thresholds that are set forth based on toxicological data - we don't know what the threshold of exposure is that would be required to have these metabolic effects. When we're talking about metabolic and health effects, as you've alluded to, these are long-term processes, right? We don't develop diabetes or cancer overnight, but it takes months, years, decades of exposure to see some of these outcomes. So, it is very possible that even though these are safe from a toxicological standpoint, the repeated exposure in the ways that we consume them, in addition to the fact that we don't consume these in isolation, we consume low-calorie sweeteners in combination with each other, other low-calorie sweeteners, as well as other food additives, other ingredients in various forms. So we don't fully understand yet what that means for long-term human health.   Thank you for that explanation. Thus far, we've been talking about these low-calorie sweeteners as a group, but of course there are different compounds that have different biological effects. What do you think about the different effects of the different versions of low-calorie sweeteners?   That's become an extremely important question, especially because over time there's been changes in not just the use of low-calorie sweeteners as a group, but in certain low-calorie sweeteners. As you mentioned, these sweeteners are different compounds. Of course, they're grouped together because they contain characteristics, such as low-calories that have high potency sweetness and are palatable replacements for added sugars in food. But they are of course, different compounds. And therefore, while they may have some overlapping effects due to their sweetness, they also may have different effects due to their specific chemistry and their way that they are absorbed, metabolized, processed in the body. That's something that we're really, as a field, just beginning to understand. In a lot of the research to date, low-calorie sweeteners have been referred to as a group. And that's in part because, especially in observational studies, it's very difficult to tease out which ones are being consumed. And that's in part due to limitations of dietary assessment approaches, and in part due to constantly changing formulations of these products by food and beverage manufacturers.   So, it's difficult in a lot of the existing research to actually tease apart what specific low-calorie sweeteners we're talking about. That said, there is more and more of an emphasis on trying to understand these as individual compounds and then hopefully be able to make more tailored and nuanced dietary recommendations for or against their consumption. There's been some recent studies looking at, for example, comparing different low-calorie sweeteners on outcomes such as body weight over 12 weeks. What that study showed (that was a study out of Purdue University), is that while saccharin consumption actually led to weight gain that was similar to real sugar, sucralose consumption in this particular study led to reductions in body weight. So, while this is just one example, clearly it's possible and likely that these sweeteners may actually have some different effects, which really reiterates the need to look at them separately and compare their effects on different outcomes.   It's interesting that you mentioned the research at Purdue, and I'd like to remind our listeners that we reported a podcast with Dr. Richard Mattes, who's a professor at Purdue, who's done a good bit of work on this topic. So, let's turn our attention to children. And I know many parents are very concerned about consumption of these products by their children. So, is their worry warranted? What do you think about use of these things in children?   Yes, I would say their worry is warranted. That said, it's also not conclusive that these are harmful, but at the same time, it's not conclusive that these are actually beneficial for their intended benefits of helping to reduce sugar intake and help with weight management. Really when it comes to kids, it's a question of how you look at the data, because what is obvious is that there is a lack of data in kids. In some cases, kids could be thought of as small adults. But kids also are very different than just being small adults, not just because they're smaller, but because they're developing. And we know that early life exposure makes the difference in terms of future dietary patterns. Given that there are many questions about the metabolic and health effects of low-calorie sweeteners in adults that have yet to be answered, to start in a widespread manner, providing these to children is concerning until we have a better handle on how these actually work in the body. As mentioned, there is very limited evidence in children, but at the same time, we've seen an explosion of low-calorie sweeteners in products, including products that are directly marketed to children. For example, fruit drinks that have often added sugar in addition to low-calorie sweeteners such as sucralose and acesulfame potassium. We've done some work talking to parents as have others, and trying to understand, "Well, what do parents think about this?" And most parents will tell us that they do not want to provide these to their children. Meanwhile, other research has shown that parents cannot identify or recognize products that contain them. What's happening is that given a lot of different factors, but particularly the fact that more and more of these sweeteners are showing up in children's products, children are being exposed to low-calorie sweeteners from a very young age. And it's unclear what that means for their health. There is reason to be concerned, both based on data in adults as well as some of the more mechanistic evidence that's come out recently related to how these sweeteners may adversely impact glucose homeostasis or insulin resistance, or alter the composition of the gut microbiome. There are a lot of questions when it comes to this topic in general, but particularly for children, it would seem that we may want to take a more cautious approach before widely incorporating these into products that are going to be consumed by youth.   What are some of the key questions that people in this field are addressing now?   So, some of the key questions, and there are many of them, but one is really just to understand the mechanisms through which these sweeteners work, both as a group and individually. That will provide really much needed insight to explain these epidemiologic findings and also to understand some of the discrepancies between the randomized control trial literature and the observational data. That's one big area of focus. Another is to understand early life exposure. Both exposure among children as well as intergenerational exposure. What happens when a pregnant mother or breastfeeding mother consumes these every day or multiple times a day? We know that they are transferred to the baby. In the case of breastfeeding, for example, we've done some work in that area. What we don't know is what that actually means for the child in terms of their taste preferences, their appetite, their weight trajectory, and their future health. Understanding that early life exposure and intergenerational transmission, as well as focusing on cardiometabolic outcomes beyond body weight. So, we know that when these are used in a certain way, very judiciously, these may... Low-calorie sweeteners, and I'm generalizing the term here, but may be useful for helping with weight management. But we need to study these in a way that better reflects how they're actually consumed in real life. And then also, as we've already discussed, really start to understand the effects of these different compounds as individual sweeteners in addition to as a group of compounds that have some similar sensory property, that being that they're sweet. I think those are some of the main areas in addition to continuing to translate some of the more mechanistic work that's been done in rodent models into the context of human consumption.   The whole idea behind these artificial sweeteners in the first place is that people enjoy sweet taste in things. And so, why not go ahead and provide that? And it better to have it in some form that's not creating the same health problems that sugar has. But what about just changing that assumption and saying that people should get accustomed to less sweetness in things overall, which would then lower intake of both artificial sweeteners and sugar. And I'm wondering if you think that might be possible? Let's just say that the food industry agreed to or was required to reduce the sweetness in its food by 5% each year for the next 15 years or whatever it would be, so that people wouldn't notice it from year to year, but generally you would get accustomed to lower levels of sweetness in things. Do you think that would be possible for people to become accustomed to?   I would think it would be possible, certainly that we know that repeated exposure to different levels of sweetness will affect sweetness preference and dietary choices. What you're describing is very similar to what's been done with sodium in terms of gradual voluntary reduction of sodium. And I am aware, and as I'm sure you are, of efforts through, for example, the National Salt and Sugar Reduction Initiative (NSSRI), to do exactly that, which is to set targets for lowering the sugar content and therefore lowering the sweetness, assuming that there's not replacement with low-calorie sweeteners of different products across different product categories. I think there is a lot of promise in that concept, but I do think we would need to obviously see how that actually affects various outcomes before knowing whether it was effective or not. But I think that concept of it's not just sugar, but also we need to think about the sweetness and how that pertains to other dietary choices and longer term dietary patterns, is really important.   Bio Dr. Allison Sylvetsky is an Associate Professor in the Department of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences and is Director of the Bachelor of Science in Nutrition program at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health.

May 31, 2022   The Bodies of Others is about how we came to the harrowing civilizational crossroads at which we find ourselves - engaged in a war against vast impersonal forces with limitless power over our lives and which threaten the freedoms we have always taken for granted.  In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Naomi Wolf shows how these forces -- from Big Tech and Big Pharma to the CCP and our oligarchical elites -- seized upon two years of COVID-19 panic in sinister new ways, to not only undermine our Republic but to fundamentally reorient human relations.  Their target is humanity itself. Their end goal is to ensure that our pre-March 2020 world is gone forever. Irretrievable. To be replaced with a world in which all human endeavor-all human joy, all human fellowship, all human advancement, all human culture, all human song, all human drama, all worship, all surprise, all flirtation, all celebration-is behind a digital paywall. A world in which we will all have to ask technology's permission to be human.  But we, the people of the world, did not vote to abandon our old systems and destroy our old ways so absolutely they could never be recovered. And Wolf shows how, against overwhelming odds, we still might win.

The Supreme Court's mifepristone order. On Friday night, the Supreme Court granted a request from the Biden administration and a drug manufacturer to put a Texas judge's ruling on hold that would have suspended the Food and Drug Administration's approval of the abortion drug mifepristone, SCOTUSblog reported. We covered Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk's ruling in a previous edition of Tangle. You can read today's podcast here, today's “Under the Radar” story here, and today's “Have a nice day” story here.

On Friday, the Supreme Court issued a stay on a lower court ruling. The stay ensures that, for now, the abortion pill mifepristone will remain widely available. Mifepristone was first approved as safe and effective for ending pregnancies more than 20 years ago. But earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a federal judge in Texas appointed by former President Donald Trump, suspended the Food and Drug Administration's approval of mifepristone.  The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit challenged part of Kacsmaryk's ruling – leaving mifepristone legal, but making it harder to access. Friday's decision by the Supreme Court halted those 5th Circuit Court restrictions and reestablished the status quo. But the decision is temporary.  This is the first time the Supreme Court has taken action on abortion since overturning Roe v. Wade last year. But, because this was an emergency decision and not a full case, the Court did not provide reasoning, noting only that Justices Thomas and Alito dissented. For more on this, we spoke with Leah Litman, Professor of Law at University of Michigan Law School and co-host of the Crooked Media podcast Strict Scrutiny.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Mike Stone and Dr. Carl Seger, to discuss one of the most controversial topics in the food industry: glyphosate.   Glyphosate is the active ingredient in many weed killers and is also used as a pesticide in agriculture. It has become a hot-button issue in recent years due to concerns about its potential impact on human health.   In this episode, Dr. Stone and Dr. Seger dive into the potential health implications of glyphosate exposure and the conflicting research surrounding its safety. They'll explain what glyphosate is, where it is commonly found, and practical tips on how to avoid glyphosate exposure.   Episode References: International Agency for Research on Cancer. (2015).

The Supreme Court blocked in full a decision by Texas-based U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk made on April 7 that invalidated the Food and Drug Administration's longtime approval of the abortion pill mifepristone. Conservative Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito publicly dissented from the decision. While the Supreme Court has upheld access to mifepristone temporarily, the issue of abortion is still a losing one for Republicans, politics experts say. Joy Reid and her guests discuss this breaking news and more on The ReidOut on MSNBC.
