During Dr. Ben Bikman's latest episode of The Metabolic Classroom lectures, Ben explores the metabolic effects of nicotine, emphasizing its influence beyond its addictive properties and its association with lung health and its connection to insulin resistance.Nicotine, a naturally occurring alkaloid found primarily in tobacco plants, is widely consumed through various products such as cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco, e-cigarettes, and nicotine replacement therapies like gums and patches. While most discussions on nicotine focus on its addictive qualities and respiratory impact, Ben highlights its significant effects on metabolism, including interactions with fat cells, insulin, and the nervous system.Nicotine primarily stimulates the sympathetic nervous system by increasing the release of catecholamines like epinephrine and norepinephrine. These stress hormones activate the “fight or flight” response, resulting in elevated heart rate, blood pressure, and metabolic rate.Nicotine's ability to increase lipolysis, the breakdown of stored fat into free fatty acids, often leads to temporary weight loss. However, its chronic use disrupts fat metabolism by impairing mitochondrial fat oxidation, leading to fat cell hypertrophy (enlargement). This enlargement, particularly in visceral fat, contributes to insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, and systemic inflammation.Ben also examines nicotine's role in insulin resistance through its activation of specific cellular pathways. Nicotine increases ceramide production, which disrupts insulin signaling by deactivating key proteins essential for glucose uptake. Additionally, nicotine activates receptors like RAGE (Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products) and TLR4 (Toll-like Receptor 4), which further drive ceramide production and inflammation. This creates a self-perpetuating cycle that exacerbates metabolic dysfunction and promotes chronic insulin resistance.The classroom lecture highlights the paradoxical nature of nicotine's metabolic effects. While it temporarily enhances fat metabolism and weight loss, chronic exposure reverses these effects, promoting fat storage, inflammation, and severe insulin resistance. Ben emphasizes the metabolic risks associated with nicotine, especially in the context of rising vaping trends among younger populations. He concludes by urging greater awareness of nicotine's systemic effects, particularly its hidden role in metabolic health.visit: https://www.insuliniq.comBen's favorite yerba maté and fiber supplement: https://ufeelgreat.com/usa/en/c/InsulinIQBen's favorite meal-replacement shake: https://gethlth.com (discount: BEN10)Ben's favorite electrolytes (and more): https://redmond.life (discount: BEN15)Ben's favorite allulose source: https://rxsugar.com (discount: BEN20)Show Notes/References:Due to character length constraints, references are not posted here.

When and how are SSAs used?3. Which SSA should a patient be on? What is the difference? How do you decide?4. How do you know if a SSA will be helpful? Should ALL NET patients be on a SSA?5. What about patients whose tumors don't “light up” on a DOTATATE scan?6. How long can someone stay on a SSA?7. What side effects may patients experience from the shot? What can patients do to prevent or manage these symptoms? How might it affect one's day-to-day ability to work and function? Can I live a “normal life” while taking this medication? 8. If the tumor is growing does this mean the SSA did not work? Do you continue it when patients are treated with another treatment? When do you stop a SSA?9. What is the future of SSAs? I heard there is a pill that is available in a clinical trial. CaFor more information, visit LACNETS.org.

Erica Ziel, deep core exercise specialist, talks about the deep connections throughout the body and how your fascia and muscles impact everything from your toes to the top of your head. Learn about how Erica helps her students heal and release their fascia from inherited patterns of movement that cause dysfunction, and how to properly train your core to support your body and move without pain. [0:30] As a child, Erica had daily knee pains that only got worse as the years went on. After finally seeing a specialist about the pain, she was told the solution was to simply strengthen her legs. This put her on the path to learn about exercise science and the body. She began developing her own methodologies through her experience, especially when it comes to pre and post-natal women. [2:30] The pelvic floor and the fascia is a very important area of the body but people don't talk about it or how to address pelvic floor pain. The quality of your life depends a lot on the health of your pelvic floor. [4:00] So many women are told that healing isn't possible and that they just have to live with the pain and discomfort. [4:40] One common mistake that women make is drawing their belly toward their spine during exercise. This restricts breathing and blood flow to the pelvic floor. Tucking in your pelvis is another mistake that's come out of the fitness industry. You need to stop focusing solely on your glutes and think about your pelvic position. [6:15] Constantly rolling your shoulders is also an issue as the forceful movement shuts down your core. The more forceful you are in trying to force your body to do something, the more it rebels. [7:15] Be aware of how you are holding your body throughout the day. Try to stand more during your day and sit on a flat surface so you sit up taller. How you sit directly impacts your pelvic floor and lower back. Let your shoulders relax and use your mid back for support. [9:05] If you're standing, be aware of your knees. If you are locking your knees, it puts a lot of pressure on your lower back. [9:50] Dr. Anna has been experiencing more soas pain since the beginning of the pandemic. Any negative innervation in the connective tissues of our body is not good. As we age that tissue becomes more stiff and less flexible, which is why Dr. Anna advocates for an anti-inflammatory lifestyle. [11:25] Fascia is connected from head to toe and fascia release is an important part of healing the body. A strong core is critical to the healthy function of the pelvic floor. [12:50] Our inner line that begins at the big toe and goes up the inner thighs, pelvis, and hips has a direct impact on pelvic floor health. Many women experience back pain or pelvic floor issues without realizing it may be related. Many times, where you feel pain and dysfunction isn't the root cause. It's just the weak link that gave way first. [14:25] Fascia goes through and around all of our muscles, organs and nerves. Fascia informs the way that we move, some of which is hereditary. It's possible that you may have been walking wrong your whole life because of how you learned when you were a child. [16:10] The way that we have been moving in our life makes our fascia stronger for that movement pattern. As we walk we should be creating an oppositional spiral throughout our core, but many women are stiff and stuck when they walk. The spiral motion patterns allow the fascia to work throughout the body. [18:35] It's hard to relearn how to move. You have to trust your body's ability to move and change and improve. We can create new fascia and learn how to become strong in all movements by integrating the entire body as much as possible. [20:30] Functional exercise that incorporates moving the whole body is game-changing. Doing exercises correctly versus incorrectly makes all the difference in the world. Muscle is the organ of longevity, and women need to exercise to stay flexible, supple, and healthy. [23:00] Emotions are stored in the muscles of the body, with movement we can release these stuck emotions in the body. Our fascia system is so integrated, that when we start to increase the range of motion we can unlock a lot of feedback, especially when it comes to the pelvic floor. [26:00] Be ready to let go of the pain and dysfunction that is holding you back. It's a big piece of our healing journey to let go of the emotions related to the pain. [26:50] During Dr. Anna's healing journey, she learned from several spiritual healers that the breast holds relationships, the kidneys hold fear, the liver holds anger, the pancreas holds guilt, and the bladder holds the fear of letting go. In Eastern medicine, focusing on the emotional and spiritual aspects of healing is crucial and is something that Western medicine misses out on. [31:05] Your thoughts matter. Being grateful for the good things in your life will have a direct impact on your quality of life. Retrain your mind to focus on the positive instead of the negative and it will change your energy. Movement is an important piece in attaining a higher vibrational energy. [32:55] Women with dysfunction and pain can be consumed by it. We can become so used to the pain that the body doesn't know what to do when it's not in pain. Erica tells her students that it's not just about healing the body, they have to be open to what else shows up for them in a positive way. [34:20] We don't have a big enough vision for what our lives could be like, especially when we've been living in dysfunction and pain for a long time. [35:45] One of the first things to address is posture. Think about lengthening throughout the day. The pelvic floor has more surface area than you think. For optimal pelvic floor function, pelvic tilts are a good all around exercise to practice. As you work on your pelvis and become aware of your breath, you will get a lot of feedback from the body. [39:15] In order to change our habits, we have to be comfortable with being uncomfortable for a while. It takes time to train the neural pathways that connect your pelvic floor to your breath and to connect with your body. Always keep your movement out of the range of pain and work within that space. Over time your range of motion will expand as it heals. [41:50] You may have to pull back from high intensity workouts for a brief time as your body learns a new pattern of movement. Erica tells the story of a woman who retrained her body to run faster after giving birth to multiple babies than she did before becoming a mother because of the lack of pain. [44:40] If you're stuck in a seated position for a long time, there are some simple movements that you can do to not become stiff. Don't force your body to feel something, light movements, awareness of your pelvic position, and a taller posture are enough. [46:30] If you're using an exercise ball to sit on, be careful about allowing your body to round forward. If you can stay seated more upright they can be a great way to exercise in a seated position.

Erica Ziel, deep core exercise specialist, talks about the deep connections throughout the body and how your fascia and muscles impact everything from your toes to the top of your head. Learn about how Erica helps her students heal and release their fascia from inherited patterns of movement that cause dysfunction, and how to properly train your core to support your body and move without pain. [0:30] As a child, Erica had daily knee pains that only got worse as the years went on. After finally seeing a specialist about the pain, she was told the solution was to simply strengthen her legs. This put her on the path to learn about exercise science and the body. She began developing her own methodologies through her experience, especially when it comes to pre and post-natal women. [2:30] The pelvic floor and the fascia is a very important area of the body but people don't talk about it or how to address pelvic floor pain. The quality of your life depends a lot on the health of your pelvic floor. [4:00] So many women are told that healing isn't possible and that they just have to live with the pain and discomfort. [4:40] One common mistake that women make is drawing their belly toward their spine during exercise. This restricts breathing and blood flow to the pelvic floor. Tucking in your pelvis is another mistake that's come out of the fitness industry. You need to stop focusing solely on your glutes and think about your pelvic position. [6:15] Constantly rolling your shoulders is also an issue as the forceful movement shuts down your core. The more forceful you are in trying to force your body to do something, the more it rebels. [7:15] Be aware of how you are holding your body throughout the day. Try to stand more during your day and sit on a flat surface so you sit up taller. How you sit directly impacts your pelvic floor and lower back. Let your shoulders relax and use your mid back for support. [9:05] If you're standing, be aware of your knees. If you are locking your knees, it puts a lot of pressure on your lower back. [9:50] Dr. Anna has been experiencing more soas pain since the beginning of the pandemic. Any negative innervation in the connective tissues of our body is not good. As we age that tissue becomes more stiff and less flexible, which is why Dr. Anna advocates for an anti-inflammatory lifestyle. [11:25] Fascia is connected from head to toe and fascia release is an important part of healing the body. A strong core is critical to the healthy function of the pelvic floor. [12:50] Our inner line that begins at the big toe and goes up the inner thighs, pelvis, and hips has a direct impact on pelvic floor health. Many women experience back pain or pelvic floor issues without realizing it may be related. Many times, where you feel pain and dysfunction isn't the root cause. It's just the weak link that gave way first. [14:25] Fascia goes through and around all of our muscles, organs and nerves. Fascia informs the way that we move, some of which is hereditary. It's possible that you may have been walking wrong your whole life because of how you learned when you were a child. [16:10] The way that we have been moving in our life makes our fascia stronger for that movement pattern. As we walk we should be creating an oppositional spiral throughout our core, but many women are stiff and stuck when they walk. The spiral motion patterns allow the fascia to work throughout the body. [18:35] It's hard to relearn how to move. You have to trust your body's ability to move and change and improve. We can create new fascia and learn how to become strong in all movements by integrating the entire body as much as possible. [20:30] Functional exercise that incorporates moving the whole body is game-changing. Doing exercises correctly versus incorrectly makes all the difference in the world. Muscle is the organ of longevity, and women need to exercise to stay flexible, supple, and healthy. [23:00] Emotions are stored in the muscles of the body, with movement we can release these stuck emotions in the body. Our fascia system is so integrated, that when we start to increase the range of motion we can unlock a lot of feedback, especially when it comes to the pelvic floor. [26:00] Be ready to let go of the pain and dysfunction that is holding you back. It's a big piece of our healing journey to let go of the emotions related to the pain. [26:50] During Dr. Anna's healing journey, she learned from several spiritual healers that the breast holds relationships, the kidneys hold fear, the liver holds anger, the pancreas holds guilt, and the bladder holds the fear of letting go. In Eastern medicine, focusing on the emotional and spiritual aspects of healing is crucial and is something that Western medicine misses out on. [31:05] Your thoughts matter. Being grateful for the good things in your life will have a direct impact on your quality of life. Retrain your mind to focus on the positive instead of the negative and it will change your energy. Movement is an important piece in attaining a higher vibrational energy. [32:55] Women with dysfunction and pain can be consumed by it. We can become so used to the pain that the body doesn't know what to do when it's not in pain. Erica tells her students that it's not just about healing the body, they have to be open to what else shows up for them in a positive way. [34:20] We don't have a big enough vision for what our lives could be like, especially when we've been living in dysfunction and pain for a long time. [35:45] One of the first things to address is posture. Think about lengthening throughout the day. The pelvic floor has more surface area than you think. For optimal pelvic floor function, pelvic tilts are a good all around exercise to practice. As you work on your pelvis and become aware of your breath, you will get a lot of feedback from the body. [39:15] In order to change our habits, we have to be comfortable with being uncomfortable for a while.

What is the difference between a conflict and a disagreement? Do self-help books actually help? What does it really mean to have equality in a relationship? Find out in this week's episode of The Learn to Love Podcast, where your host Zach Beach interviews the Clinical Psychologist Catherine E. Aponte, Psy.D. on Creating a Marriage of Equals For more on this episode click here: https://www.the-heart-center.com/ep-72-creating-a-marriage-of-equals-with-catherine-e-aponte/ Learn more about your guest below: Catherine Aponte, Psy.D., was previously a clinical psychologist and an adjunct professor at Spalding University. Dr. Aponte is married to a clinical psychologist, Joseph F. Aponte. They married in 1960, a time of significant social change. Joe had his Ph.D. and Catherine had a BS when they moved to Chapel Hill, NC in 1970, where Joe took his first job. It was at this time that Catherine decided she wanted to go to graduate school in psychology. This created a problem for them because Joe had earned his degree and was ready to begin his career in psychology. By this time, his status and earning power were higher than Catherine's, and would remain so. What this meant to her and perhaps other women in this situation, was that what she wanted to do was limited to some degree by her husband's greater earning power and by a late start on a career. Dr. Aponte and her husband embarked upon a marital journey guided by the basic principle that neither one of their careers was more important than the other's. Catherine did earn her doctoral degree in psychology and has had a successful private practice of psychology working primarily with couples. Joe took an academic route. Her book, A Marriage of Equals: How to Achieve Balance in a Committed Relationship and this Psychology Today Blog is based on Catherine's lived experience during the feminist revolution of the 70s with her loving and supportive husband, her training as a psychologist at the University of Florida, Duke University, and Spalding University, and as a practicing psychologist working with couples for over 30 years in Louisville, Kentucky. Dr. Aponte was awarded a USPHS Traineeship covering the four years she was a graduate student at Duke University. During Dr. Aponte's professional career both as a clinician in private practice and an adjunct professor of clinical psychology at Spalding University, she made numerous presentations about her work with couples, including her theory about the dynamics of an equitable marital relationship. She chaired eight doctoral dissertations testing her theoretical model of relationships. She created a blog, “amillennialmarriage,” and has maintained a social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. She has contributed several letters to the editor of the Courier-Journal in Louisville, related to gender issues. Both her master's thesis at Duke University and her doctoral thesis at Spalding University focused on gender and marriage. Dr. Aponte has participated in various professional activities during her career such as chairing a State-wide conference on the shared responsibilities of work and family; participating in a radio panel on the Shriver Report; chairing the Gender Issues Committee for the Kentucky Psychological Association; participating in The Third Path Institute, a group working to support sharing parental care; and heading up a residential living program for chemically dependent women. Throughout her career as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Aponte has been devoted to helping couples co-create a committed and equitable marriage because: (1) women will not achieve equality in society as a whole if they live in a gender-defined relationship; (2) women today are more likely not to marry than to live in a traditional marriage; (3) having a good relationship in the context of marriage is good for us as individuals and good for our society; (4) having both mother and father equally invested—equal joy a
Whether you're talking kombucha or kimchi, fermented foods are all the rage. They're taking over grocery store aisles—and being featured in some important clinical trials. Recently, Stanford scientists Dr. Christopher Gardner and Dr. Justin Sonnenburg established that eating a diet high in fermented foods promotes a healthier, more diverse gut microbiome, and lowers inflammation. What does that mean? Why does it matter? In this episode, they chat with Medcan Director of Food and Nutrition Leslie Beck about their groundbreaking new study, the fermentation process, the microbial friends living in our digestive tracts, and how to make sure you're buying the right fermented foods. Episode 87 webpage LINKS Study published in Cell: Gut-microbiota-targeted diets modulate human immune status Article from Stanford Medicine about the study results Justin Sonnenburg's bio and his Sonnenburg lab Christopher Gardner's bio NYT article by Anahad O'Connor: “How Fermented Foods May Alter Your Microbiome and Improve Your Health” NYT article by Tara Parker-Pope: “The Dos and Don'ts of Fermented Foods” NYT article by Anahad O'Connor: “A Changing Gut Microbiome May Predict How Well You Age” Read Justin & Erica Sonnenburg's book: The Good Gut: Taking Control of Your Weight, Your Mood and Your Long-Term Health Want to make your own fermented foods? It's easy! Check out this recipe packet by Justin and Erica Sonnenburg from the 2021 Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives conference INSIGHTS Food becomes fermented over time when controlled amounts of yeast and bacteria are added to it. “The live bacteria has to sit around long enough to enzymatically convert some of the carbohydrates in the food to alcohol or organic acids,” explains Dr. Christopher Gardner. Those alcohols or acids are what give fermented food its sour, tangy taste. They also promote a healthy gut microbiome, which is the community of microbial cells in our digestive tract. “We often think of humans as a single species. We actually are walking ecosystems. We have hundreds to 1000s of species that make up the human body. We harbour so many microbial cells that by cell number, we're actually more microbial than we are human,” says Dr. Justin Sonnenburg. [8:45][1:59] Eating fermented foods leads to a healthier gut microbiome because the more diverse your microbiome is, the more anti-inflammatory compounds your gut produces. This makes your body less likely to develop inflammatory diseases. “The converse of that is, if you're not eating fermented foods, you may be depressing your microbiota diversity,” says Dr. Justin Sonnenburg. High fat diets, artificial sweeteners and the emulsifiers in processed foods contribute to a less diverse gut microbiome, making you more susceptible to inflammation. [10:43] During Dr. Christopher Gardner and Dr. Justin Sonnenburg's 10-week study, they fed one group of participants a high-fibre diet, and fed the other group of participants a high-fermented food diet. “What we saw with fermented foods was mind blowing,” says Dr. Sonnenburg. “We saw this increase in gut microbiota diversity across the entire cohort... as this was happening, many of their inflammatory markers were decreasing.” Participants ate six servings of fermented food a day, up from the zero to half a serving a day they were eating before the study. That might sound like a lot of fermented food, but “different combinations of six servings tended to be about 300 calories. It's not like you were eating fermented food all day long!” says Dr. Gardner. [25:33] So how does our gut microbiota protect against inflammation? Dr. Justin Sonnenburg says there are many different pathways in the relationship between gut microbial diversity and inflammation. But a major one involves the byproducts that result from microbes interacting with the food in our gut. “We think the metabolites that the microbes are producing can help to degrade foods that we're eating,” says Dr. Justin Sonnenburg. “This is why diet is such an important component of determining how our microbiome connects to our health and our immune status.” He and Dr. Gardner hope that their research will lead to a deeper understanding of how we can feed our own communities of microbes in a way that enables them to produce molecules that are leading to a healthier immune system. [40:30] Not all fermented foods will increase the diversity of your gut microbiome. So how to make sure you're buying the right fermented foods? “You have to be careful,” warns Dr. Justin Sonnenburg. “Many things that claim to be fermented foods are just pickled with something like vinegar.” Look for fermented food products in the refrigerated section, with labels that read “contains live microbes,” “contains probiotics” or “contains live cultures.” Look out for high sugar content as well. Since fermented food is naturally sour, many products have lots of added sugar to mask their taste. Finally, although wine and beer have been fermented, they won't promote a more diverse microbiome! They've gone through a heating process that kills all their bacteria. [44:53]

Are you feeling crazy? It may just be your hormones talking. Dr. Anna explains how your hormones have a direct impact on your emotions and moods, and when things fall out of balance, you can feel like you've been swept up in a storm of anxiety, depression, rage, and everything in between. Learn how to rebalance your hormones with the Keto Green diet and supplements, and by doing the things that make you smile. [2:10] There are two days of the year where Dr. Anna allows herself some space, her son's birthday and angel day. The day her son passed away is an important day for celebrating his life. [3:20] The loss of her son in 2006 took her on a journey, spiritually, mentally, physically, and emotionally. It was a journey that took her around the world looking for answers in trying to understand how to live after such grief. [5:00] Dr. Anna was a researcher before she went to medical school, but all the schooling she had didn't prepare her for living the experience. Our hormones can play havoc with our moods and physiology drives behaviors. Unhealthy choices can destroy our physiology. [6:15] There are many times in a woman's life where these hormonal fluctuations occur, including pre menstruation and the hormonal transition into menopause. When you have had post traumatic stress or adverse childhood experiences, it generally translates to more challenges in menopause. [7:05] If you consider the hormonal milieu like a pressure cooker, progesterone acts as a lid to the pot. When you add in stress it increases the pressure, and in menopause when progesterone declines, it's like taking the lid off the pot. [8:30] In December 2018, there was an article published that explored the second peak of age where women suffer from psychosis. [9:45] There are certain things you should not say to your significant other regarding their hormones. Behaviors that don't normally bother you will suddenly cause you serious stress during certain periods. Our hormones are integrally related to our neural transmitters and have a serious impact on our emotions. [12:25] Progesterone is the main hormone that all other hormones are derived from. In times of stress our reproductive hormones are sacrificed to create cortisol. Gaba is a feel-good hormone that helps us relax, and it's directly affected by the downstream direction of progesterone production. [14:20] During Dr. Anna's second menopausal transition, she experienced severe hormonal disruption. It was a very difficult time before she made the decision to do things that increased oxytocin and supported production of progesterone. [15:55] Oxytocin is the most powerful hormone in our body. Doing things that we find fun and make us smile is crucial to a happy life. Supporting progesterone with supplements also helps with overdrive and burnout. [17:55] When you are experiencing mood swings, it's a function of your hormones. Estrogen is essentially for the production of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Most of our serotonin is produced in the GI tract, which is why the microbiome is so important. [19:00] When estrogen and serotonin dip during perimenopause, it affects the amount of glucose produced in the brain which results in brain fog. [20:55] During PMS, women are often prescribed SSRIs. These might deal with some of the symptoms, but you aren't increasing your natural production of serotonin, which usually results in progressively higher doses. This is why functional medicine focuses first on repairing the gut. [22:45] Dopamine is the other neurotransmitter to think about. It's responsible for seeking novelty and to have healthy levels of dopamine. You also need healthy levels of testosterone which will increase dopamine, and in turn, can increase the desire for new experiences. [26:30] As our testosterone depletes we feel like we have lost our edge. It can lead to a loss of desire in doing most things. [27:10] We have to address our hormones in a holistic way. When your hormones shift, it's your body sending out a cry for help. Avoid just powering through until “it gets better” because there is no telling what casualties will be left in your path from that approach. [29:00] There are over 200 symptoms associated with PMS and menopause. If you only hate your husband for two weeks out of the month, it's not your husband, it's your hormones. [30:45] Have a good night's sleep (7-9 hours) whenever possible. A relaxing night time ritual is critical. Avoid blue light generated from computer screens. Stretch before bed and do things that help you relax. [32:25] Supplement with progesterone. There are a number of different supplements on the market that you can use that will help balance your hormones overall. [36:20] The dietary changes that we make can improve our willpower and physiology. Break up with sugar and embrace the Keto Green lifestyle. [37:20] Indulge in dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants and can help with PMS at the time of your period. [38:10] Don't forget to schedule some play time. Think about the people and activities that put a smile on your face and make sure you make time for those in your calendar. Restoring the hormones of connection will help balance the feelings of isolation and loneliness. [39:50] Nourish yourself so you are not pouring from an empty cup. Avoid things that disrupt your diet and damage your gut microbiome. [40:40] Supplement with herbal combinations like Mighty Matcha Plus and Omega 3. Over 10% of people are poor methylators, so adding methylation support to your supplements is crucial. [44:20] We want to do everything we can to clear our bodies of toxic hormones and endocrine disruptors. [44:45] Tips for helping your wife through hormonal symptoms: don't mention hormones, be extra nice, helpful, and supportive, draw a warm bath with something sweet, cook a nice healthy meal, serve breakfast in bed, or take your kids out for a run. Every effort will be appreciated. [46:00] You don't get a reward for being a martyr during menopause. Take care of yourself, and it will make a difference for yourself and your family.

You're listening to the voice of Dr. Amy Brower, the co-host of the Newborn Screening SPOTlight Podcast. This episode focuses on the common question, What does it take to get on the "list"? The list refers to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP) which is a national guideline for newborn screening (NBS). Dr. Amy Brower was an inaugural member of a Federal Advisory Committee created during the administration of President George W. Bush. In 2004, the Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns and Children was established under the Public Health Service Act and was charged with advising the Secretary of Health and Human Services about aspects of newborn and childhood screening. Their charter includes recommending improvements in the national newborn and childhood screening programs. This includes making systematic evidence-based and peer-reviewed recommendations on which disorders should be included in newborn screening. During Dr. Brower's tenure on the Committee, they developed a system of nomination and review that was open to all stakeholders. The idea was to encourage not only researchers and clinicians to nominate a condition but also parents, patients, families, and advocacy groups.

For this last week of 2020, each day we will be re-release one of the most popular episodes of the past year. We will resume our regular schedule with a new episode on 1/4/2021. Have a Happy Holiday and Happy New Year! Best of 2020 #1: Dr. Will Bulsiewicz - All About the Gut Microbiome and How to Strengthen Your Immune System Right Now (Originally released 12/14/20) All About the Gut Microbiome and How to Strengthen Your Immune System Right Now! Today, we are going to talk all about the gut microbiome and how to strengthen your immune system right now. Clearly, with everything going on with COVID-19, this episode couldn't come at a better time. I've had the opportunity to talk to one of the best there is on this topic. Today's guest is Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, commonly known as Dr. B. He is an award-winning gastroenterologist and the author of the New York Times bestselling book, Fiber Fueled. Many might not know this, but our gut is connected to almost every part of our body including our brain. Did you know that 90% of our serotonin and 50 % of our dopamine is produced in our gut? So sometimes when we feel stressed, anxious, and depressed, this all might be tied directly to having an unhealthy gut. It's incredibly fascinating as is the fact that 70% of our immune system is in our gut as well. This is why we should really be paying attention to our gut health more than ever as COVID-19 impacts so many people with underlying health issues and weaker immune systems. In this episode, Dr. B will explain everything you need to know about the gut microbiome, how our gut health impacts things such as COVID-19, our immune system, and mental health. He will also explain the secret to how you can discover how healthy your gut is in the comfort of your and his tip for this will cost you absolutely nothing other than some time. Finally, he will also provide the blueprint of what you can do right now to optimize your gut health and strengthen your immune system plus so much more. Dr. B's Backstory: Dr. B already knew when he was a teenager that he wanted to be a doctor. He's always been an idealist, and what he really wanted to do was to help kids, particularly the adolescent and teenage kids, because he feels like they're overlooked and they deserve more attention in this transformative period in their life. So he initially set on a path to go to medical school so that he could become a child psychiatrist. During Dr. B's journey to become a doctor, he suddenly fell in love with gastroenterology. At the age of 30, everything went well for his career. He was the chief medical resident at Northwestern in Chicago, one of the top internal medicine residency in the country. He won the highest award in his residency class and published eight papers in gastroenterology journals. Of all those achievements, he still felt miserable. He hated himself. And that's when he realized that it's all about the diet that he was raised, which was the very classic “1980s diet” -- hotdogs, Doritos, Kool Aid, bagel bites. He gained 50 pounds, had low energy, super low self-esteem and high blood pressure. He did some exercise like what most guys do, but everything changed when he started dating his wife who's on a very clean diet. Out of curiosity, he followed that thread and started making small changes. He noticed that he instantly felt better. He didn't have the hangover after meals, he was energized, his skin started to change, and his hair got thicker. His weight also started falling of as well. Those changes inspired him so much that he became obsessed with digging into the medical literature. He became a believer because of the way that it transformed his own life. He felt that his patients deserved it too. So he brought that into his clinic, and saw similar amazing and transformative results with them. In 2016, he just felt compelled to share the story, but also felt that it wasn't enough. That's the reason why he created his Instagram account. He didn't expect so much in the beginning, so when he reached 1,000 followers, Dr. B and his wife celebrated and popped a bottle of champagne. Fast forward, his book called “Fiber Fueled” came out in May this year, and it's a New York Times bestseller. Today, they're closing in on 100,000 copies and it's only a little over six months since the book came out. Now that you already know Dr. B's backstory, take a look at these very interesting topics and lessons we discussed: The meaning of the gut microbiome Why stress and the gut microbiome go hand in hand with each other The different ways our gut can communicate with our brain The antagonistic pleiotropy The connection between gut microbiome and COVID-19 Things that people can do to strengthen their gut and immune system The special connection between our gut microbes and fiber Why do people need to pay attention to where they're getting the fiber from The importance of the diversity of plants in your diet Bonus: smoothie recipe of Dr. B's wife The Bristol Stool Chart The different types of bowel movement The effect on trauma in the gut How Dr. B and his team help the patients who were victims of trauma and abuse Inflammation in the gut Fiber Fueled by Dr. B: “Fiber Fueled is so much more than a health book. It's a step-by-step methodology to stop the misinformation madness caused by the diet industry, and show you the simple, science-backed process for a lifestyle that is effortless, sustainable, and above all else, it transforms your health by optimizing your gut microbiome.” Takeaways: Microbes are not just passively in the human body. They are there with a purpose. They have been there since the beginning of human history. There's never been a sterile human, we've always had a relationship with these microbes. The healthy microbiomes give us access to our nutrients. are connected to our immune system. are connected to our metabolism. are connected to our hormones. are connected to our brain. A healthy gut is the path to a healthy brain, including our mood. Our bowel movement is actually predominantly made up of your gut microbes. Plant Diversity in your diet Is king when it comes to having a healthy gut. Simple ways are through smoothies and salads.

Time Stamps:1:13 – Mahdi and Dr. Dinkha reminisce about the topics they talked about when Mahdi took her class.3:35 – Mahdi's love for psychology started in Dr. Dinkha's classes.4:34 – There has recently been research to support the use of low dosages of hallucinogens to treat PTSD and other mood disorders in the US, but nothing like this is being done in Kuwait.6:44 – During Dr. Dinkha's abnormal psychology class, she takes students on a field trip to the psych hospital and drug rehab unit.8:23 – She emphasizes the importance of not trying to diagnose yourself or people you know based on your limited knowledge of psychology.10:58 – Dr. Dinkha discusses the influence on young adolescents of social media. It is dangerous to compare yourself to others' distorted realities that are curated to make you think they are always happy.14:17 – She is seeing increases in the amount of loneliness people feel as well as a decrease in social skills and the ability to express your feelings. This is the perfect formula for cyberbullying, eating disorders, and other harmful actions.17:50 – While Kuwaitis are known to be more impressionable, research has shown that narcissism levels have not really increased with the wider adoption of social media.22:16 – Dr. Dinkha recommends a regularly set-aside time for technology detox to allow yourself a break from the expectations and pressure that are so prevalent there.23:38 – Mahdi asks if social media is influencing unhealthy habits such as poor nutrition, use of steroids, and surgeries for appearance purposes. While social media could be a factor, the truth is that plastic surgery is more affordable than it has ever been and people would rather eat the way they want to and then have surgery than stick to a healthy diet.29:00 – Playing into this phenomenon is the element of “social masks” and putting forth only the best parts of your life on social media.31:09 – Mahdi shares his observations about several of his friends and relatives who have had surgery for this purpose and have fallen right back into their old habits afterwards.32:58 – Dr. Dinkha underscores the need for working on the root of the problem and developing self-discipline and self-involvement. There is still a stigma about mental health, but there shouldn't be. There needs to be a culture shift that encourages people to be honest and reach out for help when they need it, learning how to focus on the present moment rather than the past or the future.37:25 – Dr. Dinkha talks about simple steps people can take to increase their productivity and satisfaction.41:08 – Oprah is famous for saying that her phone is the last thing she grabs before walking out the door, placing the priority on herself in the morning rather than checking her phone before even getting out of bed, like most people do.42:11 – Regret about the past and fear of the future are really just excuses for why you can't live in the present moment. Use your past as a learning tool for the future, which you can't control, and realize that everything you have gone through is building up your “psychological immune system.”47:10 – Dr. Dinkha talks about the factors that could contribute to the difference between someone getting into drugs/crime as a coping mechanism.50:29 – Dr. Dinkha has started her own podcast intended for common people with common problems and questions. She wants to break down the barriers between people so we can see how much we have in common.55:02 – Ways to get in touch with her (links below).

In Today's Episode Dr. Kristin Neff studied communications as an undergraduate at the University of California at Los Angeles. She did her graduate work at University of California at Berkeley, studying moral development with Dr. Elliot Turiel. Her dissertation research was conducted in Mysore, India, where she examined children's moral reasoning. She then spent two years of post-doctoral study with Dr. Susan Harter at Denver University, studying issues of authenticity and self-concept development. She is currently an Associate Professor at the University of Texas at Austin. During Dr. Neff's last year of graduate school, she became interested in Buddhism and has been practicing meditation in the Insight Meditation tradition ever since. While doing her post-doctoral work she decided to conduct research on self-compassion — a central construct in Buddhist psychology and one that had not yet been examined empirically. In addition to her pioneering research into self-compassion, she has developed an 8-week program to teach self-compassion skills. The program, co-created with her colleague Chris Germer, affiliated with Harvard Medical School, is called Mindful Self-Compassion. Her book, Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself, was published by William Morrow in April, 2011. In our conversation today we talk about the difference between self-esteem and self-compassion, and how self-compassion can help you heal. Outline of This Great Episode [3:19] Deborah introduces Dr. Neff. [5:21] How did Dr. Neff become interested in self-compassion? [7:18] Self-esteem and self-compassion are intricately connected. [9:02] Parents aren't raising their children's self-esteem in healthy ways. [13:36] There is such a thing as healthy self-esteem. [15:14] How does abuse affect self-esteem? [17:21] Compassionate self-talk and compassionate self-touch are important. [21:52] You can help yourself through shock and grief.
