Ever feel like you've done everything for your health, but your symptoms keep recurring and won't go away? Julie EHealth says there's a reason for that. It's not your thyroid, your gut, or your adrenals. It's your scars. Julie teaches a therapy called mud packing, and the results are incredible. She's using castor oil, light therapy, and a mineral-rich mud protocol to draw toxins directly out of scars, piercings, tattoos—even root canals—and restore blocked energy pathways in the body. In this episode, she talks about mud therapy that's helping reverse bloating, hormonal issues, chronic pain, emotional stagnation, and more, all by addressing trauma sites stored in the body. And here's what really struck me: scars aren't just visible marks. They can be C-section sites, old sports injuries, dental work, cosmetic procedures, and yes, even tattoos. Anywhere you've had trauma, the body can store toxins like a “garbage can”—blocking energetic flow, weakening organs, and fueling chronic illness. This is one of those episodes that shifts how you think about healing, because sometimes the real root cause isn't what's happening inside your body, but what happened to it.   "The scars are the roadmap to your health. When a lot of people go to practitioners and they're like, 'Oh, I did this and that, and I felt great, but it came back,' it's because you did not treat the real root of the problem." ~ Julie EHealth   In This Episode: - Julie's background - What is a scar? - How scars disrupt your body's energy meridians - Surgeries, scar tissue, and long-term health consequences - The problem with tattoos and piercings - Root canals: the infection that never goes away - What is mud packing & how does it work? - Castor oil therapy: the gentler starting point - Julie's new Mud Packing course - Other scar treatments - How to work with Julie For more, visit https://myersdetox.com    Heavy Metals Quiz: Find out your toxicity score and receive a free video series on detoxification at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    Products Mentioned: Puori PW1 Protein: Get 20% off with code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy  Tru Energy Skincare Serum: Get an exclusive deal at https://trytruenergy.com/wendy  Organifi Collagen: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox  Chef's Foundry P600 Cookware: Get a special discount at bit.ly/myersdetox    About Julie EHealth: Julie EHealth is a registered dietician, functional medicine expert, and master of QRA (Quantum Reflex Analysis) with over three decades of experience helping people uncover the real root causes of chronic symptoms.

MS can limit your ability to get around and do the things you like to do. And when that happens, the right mobility device can be a game-changer when it comes to staying safe, staying active, and improving your quality of life. This week, Dr. Evan Cohen joins me to discuss how to know when it's time to consider a mobility device, and how to choose the right mobility device for you. We're also presenting findings from two separate studies that shed significant light on how the gut microbiome interacts with the brain and how its composition varies among individuals with MS. We'll tell you what happened when a research team gave a multiple-choice "test" measuring MS expertise to neurologists and neurology residents and then gave the same test to the leading artificial intelligence platforms. And we'll share an opportunity for you to participate in MS research by taking the PROMS Initiative's eHealth survey. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Full transcript Getting the right health insurance is serious business; it's the number one reason for bankruptcy in America, says eHealth Insurance CRO Michelle Barbeau. But when she joined eHealth — which helps consumers compare and select providers — she realized that scaring people into action was not a winning strategy. "What we found was, it's all about transparency," says Michelle, who initially served as eHealth's CMO, and is now a CRO who also oversees marketing. "We had just never told the story. And so that's where our campaign was born. Our strategy was 'Your remarkably transparent advisor.'" Today on Building Better CMOs, Michelle and MMA Global CEO Greg Stuart talk about her transition from CMO to CRO, the importance of stepping out of one's comfort zone, and the role of marketers as change agents. They also discuss brand-building from scratch, consumer research, and how unifying marketing efforts can lead to significant growth.

Michelle Barbeau is the Chief Revenue Officer at eHealth, Inc., which simplifies healthcare enrollment by offering online tools and expert support to help Americans compare insurance plans and affordable coverage. Michelle has led business transformations at eHealth, including helping the company win the Modern Healthcare and Ad Age Healthcare Marketing Impact Award for Integrated Campaign. Michelle's prior roles include shaping marketing strategies at AbleTo, leading member engagement at UnitedHealth Group, and building iconic brands like Yoplait and Pillsbury at General Mills.  In this episode… While technological innovations are revolutionizing patient care and management, they are also reshaping the roles and demands of healthcare marketing. With the healthcare marketer's job no longer limited to traditional sales and marketing strategies, how can these professionals leverage customer centricity to help brands reach the right audience at the right time?  For customer experience expert Michelle Barbeau, the secret lies in establishing a brand identity that differentiates itself from industry norms. Michelle's cutting-edge healthcare campaigns improved transparency and consumer trust and delivered impressive results that included doubling brand awareness, boosting website traffic, and minimizing acquisition costs. By prioritizing customers' needs and developing an integrated marketing approach, marketers can address the major challenges of healthcare marketing — confusion, cost, and complexity. Michelle's approach demonstrates how understanding and aligning with consumer needs can boost business growth and industry recognition. In this episode of The Growth Fire Podcast, Kevin Hourigan chats with Michelle Barbeau about strategic innovation and leadership in healthcare marketing. Michelle highlights the importance of consumer empathy in driving business growth, the critical role of mentors in her career journey, and the value of stepping out of your comfort zone. Tune in for insights on brand building, business transformation, and aligning marketing strategies with consumer needs.

INSPIRATION | Vielleicht kennst du den Spruch „5 Things I Wish I knew when I was 20“? In einem persönlichen Talk erfährst du 5 große Learnings, die Carolin Durst im Business, aber auch im Privatleben gemacht hat. Er berichtet von entscheidenden Stationen im Leben, wie z.B. dem Studium, dem Einstieg ins Berufsleben, aber auch von Erfahrungen aus seinem Privatleben, die ihn zu dem gemacht haben, was er heute ist. Diese Episode gibt dir Anreize, Neues auszuprobieren und soll dir helfen erfolgreicher zu werden. Egal, ob du noch jünger als 20 Jahre bist oder älter. Carolin Durst ist Professorin für Digital Marketing an der Hochschule Ansbach und eine führende Expertin auf den Gebieten strategisches Management und E-Health. Mit einem Doktortitel in Wirtschaftsinformatik von der Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg hat sie ihre Karriere durch praxisnahe Forschung und die Anwendung soziotechnischer Designsysteme geprägt. Als wissenschaftliche Leiterin am Campus Rothenburg und bei ITONICS GmbH treibt sie Innovationen im digitalen Marketing und strategischen Management voran. Carolin ist bekannt für ihre wegweisenden Ansätze und ihre Fähigkeit, theoretisches Wissen in praxisrelevante Lösungen umzusetzen. Die 5 Dinge: 1) Arbeite darauf hin, dir eine breite Wissensbasis aufzubauen – und das geht total einfach, indem man mit Menschen ins Gespräch kommt. 2) Ergreife die (spontanen) Chancen, die sich dir bieten, weil diese Chancen sind wie eine Wildcard: Man weiß nicht so genau, was passiert, wen man kennenlernt, wie es läuft und was dabei herauskommt. 3) Bau dir diverse Netzwerke auf, denn so schaffst du Sozialkapital, auf das du Zugriff hast. 4) Wenn du in der Lage bist, Systeme zu verstehen, dann kannst du das richtig erfolgreich für dich einsetzen. 5) Beachte immer die Anti-Arschloch-Regel: Und die lautet ganz einfach, halte dich von Arschlöchern fern – egal ob temporäre und amtliche Arschlöcher –, denn sie rauben dir Energie. Diese Folge stammt aus unserem Podcast „5 Dinge mit 20“: Bei [5 Dinge mit 20](https://lnk.to/5Things20) trifft Joël Kaczmarek bekannte, erfolgreiche und interessante Menschen und befragt sie, was ihre 5 Dinge sind, die sie gerne schon mit 20 gewusst hätten. Auf diese Weise leiten diese inspirierenden Personen ihre wesentlichen Learnings und Lebenseinsichten ab und bescheren dir echte Wissensabkürzungen.

This episode gives an in-depth insight into healthcare digitalization in Portugal. Cátia Sousa Pinto, Head of Global Digital Health and International Affairs at SPMS - shared services of ministry of health of Portugal talked about healthcare digitalization in Portugal, European Health Data Space (EHDS), patient data and more. Key Points Summary Portugal's Digital Health System Design: To accelerate digital health development, Portugal created a national eHealth agency (SPMS) over a decade ago. SPMS Role: SPMS plays a dual role, not only regulating but also developing and maintaining ICT solutions for Portugal's healthcare system. This centralization helps prevent fragmentation and ensures interoperability. European Health Data Space (EHDS): EHDS is the EU's regulatory framework for cross-border health data sharing, building on initiatives like MyHealth@EU. The goal is to allow seamless healthcare across Europe, where any EU citizen can access healthcare in other countries as if they were at home. My Health at EU: A foundational initiative that enables cross-border exchange of health data like patient summaries and e-prescriptions between EU countries. Patient Data: Catia emphasized the importance of patients controlling their health data and being able to share it across healthcare providers. This includes e-prescriptions, laboratory results, and, eventually, medical images. Portugal's National Electronic Health Record: A key project for the country is the creation of a unified electronic health record system, allowing citizens to access all of their health data, both public and private, from a single source. Use of EU Funding: Portugal has allocated €300 million from the EU's recovery funds for digital health transformation, focusing on infrastructure, citizen-centric services, and reducing the burden on healthcare professionals. Challenges and Future Outlook: The integration of digital health into national governance and improving interoperability between systems remain ongoing challenges. Katia stressed the importance of moving towards real-time, structured health data to improve future healthcare outcomes. www.facesofdigitalhealth.com Newsletter: https://fodh.substack.com/ Show notes: [00:02:00] - Overview of Digital Health in Portugal [00:06:00] - National-Level Initiatives and Successes [00:10:00] - European Health Data Space (EHDS) and My Health at EU [00:16:00] - Cross-Border Care and Digital Infrastructure [00:20:00] - The Role of SPMS in Portugal's Digital Health Journey [00:30:00] - Challenges and Workforce Management in Digital Health [00:34:00] - Benefits of Centralization in Small Countries [00:38:00] - Electronic Health Records and Expanding Digital Services, Secondary use of data [00:42:00] - Portugal's National Electronic Health Record [00:46:00] - Future Vision for Health Data Integration

Through his work, his podcast, and his social media listening, Joshua Liu, CEO of SeamlessMD has his fingers on the pulse of healthcare. Healthcare IT Today caught up with him at the eHealth 2024 conference to get his take on the latest trends in health IT. According to Liu, AI technologies like ambient clinical voice are not a universal fit for every clinician. He cited a recent study by The Permanente Medical Group (TPMG) which showed less than half of the physicians who had access to the technology chose to use it. Those that did, found it very helpful, but the majority did not elect to try it.

An das eRezept haben sich inzwischen alle gewöhnt und nach anfänglichen Schwierigkeiten läuft das Ganze relativ unaufgeregt. Sogenannte "Digitale Identitäten", mit denen man z.B. über das Internet nachweisen kann, dass man wirklich die Person ist, für die man sich ausgibt, sind noch nicht flächendeckend verfügbar. Was macht man nun, wenn man ein eRezept hat, das Haus aber nicht verlassen kann/will? Hier kommt CardLink ins Spiel: Das eRezept wurde ausgestellt, Ihr sucht Euch eine Apotheke auf dem Handy aus und haltet dann Eure eGK an Euer Handy und autorisiert so die Apotheke. Eine Art "Fern-eGK-Lesegeräte" mit Eurem Handy, wenn man es sehr einfach ausdrücken will. Über dieses Thema sprechen Nana Lohmanns, ein erfahrener eHealth- und Apotheken-Experte, und Christian. Am Ende der Folge gibt es wieder ein Audioschmankerl von dem Star-Duo ChatGPT&Udio. Shownotes: CardLink bei der gematik Cardlink bei ehex  Nana Lohmanns bei LinkedIn

The following question refers to Section 13 of the 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Guideline for the Management of Heart Failure.The question is asked by Western Michigan University medical student and CardioNerds Intern Shivani Reddy, answered first by Mayo Clinic Cardiology Fellow and CardioNerds Academy Faculty Dr. Dinu Balanescu, and then by expert faculty Dr. Harriette Van Spall.Dr. Van Spall is an Associate Professor of Medicine, cardiologist, and Director of E-Health at McMaster University. Dr Van Spall is a Canadian Institutes of Health Research-funded clinical trialist and researcher with a focus on heart failure, health services, and health disparities.The Decipher the Guidelines: 2022 AHA / ACC / HFSA Guideline for The Management of Heart Failure series was developed by the CardioNerds and created in collaboration with the American Heart Association and the Heart Failure Society of America. It was created by 30 trainees spanning college through advanced fellowship under the leadership of CardioNerds Cofounders Dr. Amit Goyal and Dr. Dan Ambinder, with mentorship from Dr. Anu Lala, Dr. Robert Mentz, and Dr. Nancy Sweitzer. We thank Dr. Judy Bezanson and Dr. Elliott Antman for tremendous guidance.Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values. Question #32 Palliative and supportive care has a role for patients with heart failure only in the end stages of their disease. TRUE FALSE Answer #32 Explanation The correct answer is False Palliative care is patient- and family-centered care that optimizes health-related quality of life by anticipating, preventing, and treating suffering and should be integrated into the management of all stages of heart failure throughout the course of illness. The wholistic model of palliative care includes high-quality communication, estimation of prognosis, anticipatory guidance, addressing uncertainty, shared decision-making about medically reasonable treatment options, advance care planning; attention to physical, emotional, spiritual, and psychological distress; relief of suffering; and inclusion of family caregivers in patient care and attention to their needs during bereavement. As such, for all patients with HF, palliative and supportive care—including high-quality communication, conveyance of prognosis, clarifying goals of care, shared decision-making, symptom management, and caregiver support—should be provided to improve QOL and relieve suffering (Class 1, LOE C-LD). For conveyance of prognosis, objective risk models can be incorporated along with discussion of uncertainty since patients may overestimate survival and the benefits of specific treatments – “hope for the best, plan for the worst.” For clarifying goals of care, the exploration of each patient's values and concerns through shared decision-making is essential in important management decisions such as when to discontinue treatments, when to initiate palliative treatments that may hasten death but provide symptom management, planning the location of death, and the incorporation of home services or hospice. It is a Class I indication that for patients with HF being considered for, or treated with life-extending therapies, the option for discontinuation should be anticipated and discussed through the continuum of care, including at the time of initiation, and reassessed with changing medical conditions and shifting goals of care (LOE C-LD). Caregiver support should also be offered to family members even beyond death to help them cope with the grieving process. A formal palliative care consult is not needed for each patient, but the primary team should exercise the above domains to improve processes of care and patient outcomes. Specialist palliative care consultation can be useful to improve QOL and relieve suffering for patients with heart failure—particularly tho...
