Let's talk about the importance of potassium and what can happen if you don't get enough. Your body requires a lot of potassium. The daily requirement for potassium is 4700 mg. Potassium is important for the sodium-potassium pump. The sodium-potassium pump is like a battery for your cells. Vegetables are the best source of potassium. One cup of leafy greens provides between 500 and 800 mg of potassium. If you consumed five to ten cups of vegetables daily, you would get plenty of potassium. In comparison, a banana only provides about 300 mg of potassium. Bananas also contain a lot of fructose. Unfortunately, the average person is not getting enough potassium from their diet—and potassium supplements typically only give you up to 99 mg of potassium per tablet. Potassium deficiency is often overlooked. It's difficult to diagnose, and symptoms of a potassium deficiency are sometimes vague. Early symptoms often include difficulty breathing, fatigue, and heart palpitations. A more severe deficiency in potassium can lead to the following: • High blood pressure • Increased risk of stroke • Fluid retention or edema • Bone loss • Kidney stones Causes of potassium deficiency that go beyond a lack of potassium in the diet can include: • Penicillin • Diuretics • Steroids • Chronic stress • High insulin (high-carb diet) • Refined or processed foods Even the keto diet and prolonged fasting can lead to a potassium deficiency if not done correctly. You will lose potassium as you lose water weight on keto. Consuming enough potassium on keto and taking a potassium supplement while doing a prolonged fast is crucial. Eating too much too quickly after a prolonged fast or consuming too many carbs after a prolonged fast can also cause a severe potassium deficiency, which can be dangerous. My challenge for you is to start consuming a lot of foods high in potassium, like leafy greens, for one week and see how you feel. I think you're going to notice a big difference.

If you were to name one thing that could simultaneously increase patient satisfaction and reduce provider burnout, would empathy come to mind? Well, based on research published in peer-reviewed journals, it should, as we'll learn from our Raise the Line guest Dr. Helen Riess, a clinical professor at Harvard Medical School and author of the book, The Empathy Effect. Trained as a psychiatrist, Riess has built a training program based on the neuroscience of emotion that bucks the prevailing wisdom that empathy is an inborn trait that can't be taught. “I feel your pain is not just a figure of speech. We actually do feel other people's pain and our very survival depends on it,” Riess explains to host Shiv Gaglani. The company Riess founded and leads, Empathetics, has put thousands of clinicians and frontline staff through its e-learning courses with impressive results including major increases in patient experience scores and improvements in staff retention with the longest follow-up case study showing an 82.9% decrease in turnover among participating clinicians. In a nutshell, the training builds perception of emotion and fosters a deeper understanding of what Riess calls ‘the whole person.' “You know, not just the broken wrist, but what does the broken wrist mean for a sixty-five-year-old woman who is the only caretaker for her grandchild?” Join us for a fascinating look at the neuroscience of empathy and its role in transforming the culture of healthcare.Mentioned in this episode: https://www.empathetics.com/

We've all heard the saying, "you are what you eat." What if you could eat to actually beat disease?Dr. William Li has compiled scientific evidence behind over 200 health-boosting foods, that can stave cancer, reduce your risk of dementia, and beat dozens of avoidable diseases.His book, Eat to Beat Disease: The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself, isn't about what foods to avoid, but rather is a life-changing guide to the hundreds of healing foods to add to your meals that support the body's defense systems.Listen as Dr. Li joins Dr. Friedman to explain the science of healing and prevention, as well as the strategies for using food to actively transform health.

The value of early detection is perhaps greater for cancer than many other diseases because it remains the second leading cause of death worldwide. On this episode of Raise the Line we're going to learn about a new testing approach that leverages genomic technology and machine learning to detect signals circulating in the blood across more than 50 types of cancers -- far beyond the number currently screened for -- and helps physicians target locations for diagnostic evaluation. “We can look at this epigenetic pattern on very specific regions of the DNA and say this is only seen in cancer, and make a call,” says Dr. Josh Ofman, the president of GRAIL, a spinoff of the genomic sequencing company Illumina. “We have an opportunity now to dramatically improve the number of cancers found in the population through early detection. We could reduce the death rate over the next five years by almost forty percent,” he tells host Shiv Gaglani. Tune in to find out who qualifies for the test, what obstacles lie ahead and how GRAIL is working to educate physicians about this potentially powerful new option Mentioned in this episode: https://grail.com/

Addiction treatment centres across India are observing an uptick in patients grappling with abuse of opium-derived painkillers like Tramadol, specialists say.

In spring 1974, over a dozen smallpox outbreaks sprang up throughout the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. Determined to find the source of the cases, American smallpox eradication worker Larry Brilliant and a local partner, Zaffar Hussain, launched an investigation.The answer: Each outbreak could be traced back to Tatanagar, a city run by one of India's largest corporations, the Tata Group.When Brilliant arrived at the Tatanagar Railway Station, he was horrified by what he saw: people with active cases of smallpox purchasing train tickets. The virus was spreading out of control.Brilliant knew that to stop the outbreak at its source, he would need the support of the company that ran the city. But he wasn't optimistic the Tata Group would help.Still, he had to try. So, Brilliant tracked down a Tata executive and knocked on his door in the middle of the night.Brilliant's message: “Your company is sending death all over the world. You're the greatest exporter of smallpox in history.”Much to his surprise, the leaders of Tata listened.Episode 5 of “Eradicating Smallpox” explores the unique partnership between the Tata Group and the campaign to end the virus. This collaboration between the private and public sector, domestic and international, proved vital in the fight to eliminate smallpox.To conclude the episode, host Céline Gounder speaks with NBA commissioner Adam Silver and virologist David Ho about the basketball league's unique response to covid-19 — “the bubble” — and the essential role businesses can play in public health. “We need everyone involved,” Ho said, “from government, to academia, to the private sector.”In Conversation With Host Céline Gounder:Adam SilverCommissioner of the NBADavid HoDirector and CEO of the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research CenterVoices From the Episode:Larry BrilliantFormer World Health Organization smallpox eradication worker in India@larrybrilliant Find a transcript of this episode here.“Epidemic” is a co-production of KFF Health News and Just Human Productions.To hear other KFF Health News podcasts, click here.Subscribe to “Epidemic” on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Pocket Casts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

In Episode 179, Billy Donnelly wants to talk about the male loneliness epidemic he's heard getting more attention lately. As a subject that's been discussed on Getting Old Quickly before, he aims to address some of the contributing factors that cause such difficulty in making and maintaining adult friendships -- but also why it can be a bit harder for men, in general. He also talks about some of the mockery of the problem he's heard, sharing why it's not helpful and just further keeps the vicious cycle of male loneliness rolling forward. Additionally, he shares his belief that the more we talk about such a problem and continue to acknowledge it's happening, the easier it becomes for people to find others looking for similar connection.

If you've struggled to build a community or create meaningful friendships as an adult, this is a great episode for you! The headlines are clear: there is a "friendship recession" a "loneliness epidemic" that is plaguing the United States. So much so that the US Surgeon General has declared it as an official loneliness epidemic. Sammie and Michelle are diving into how to build a community today and fight off your own personal friendship recession.

5Cs of History, Complexity: #4 of 4. During the Tang dynasty in the mid 8th century, a military leader named Li Baozhen was frustrated with his aging body. He had achieved much military glory and material wealth in his life, but he was aging and facing the fact that death was approaching. But he had also had dreams that he was riding triumphantly through the sky on a crane. Surely this was an omen! At the same time, Li Baozhen met Sun Jichang, who was a fangshi - a word that can be translated as alchemist, wizard, magician, and also doctor or physician. Sun Jichang offered Li Baozhen a concoction that he promised would allow him to “transcend” death. Inspired by his dreams of slipping away from earth on the back of a crane, Li Baozhen took the elixir - only to become incredibly sick. Li Baozhen's experience captures something of the complexity of Chinese medicine: competing ideas of how to heal, the use of various powerful medicines in careful (and not so careful) doses, the intermingling of spiritual and medicial philosophies, and the quest for health and power, even immortality. For this installment in our series on the five C's of historical thinking, we're contemplating the historical concept of complexity through an exploration of Chinese medicine.

Viv·i·sec·tion: the practice of performing operations on live animals for the purpose of experimentation. Since the late 1800's there has been a strong moral protest against surgeries targeting healthy tissue of living animals. It was known as the anti-vivisectionist movement, and was in large part responsible for organizations like the SPCA and laws against animal cruelty. Ask a progressive if they are opposed to surgically dissecting living animals and they will be appalled. Apparently, however, when the test subjects are teenage girls then that is to be CELEBRATED.

On this episode of Raise the Line, we have the privilege of hearing from one of the nation's top healthcare leaders, Dr. Joshua Gordon, who is the director of the National Institute of Mental Health. In that role, he oversees an extensive portfolio of basic and clinical research that seeks to transform the understanding and treatment of mental illnesses, paving the way for prevention, recovery and cure. “Our main role is in trying to make sure that good science is conducted in the service of furthering public mental health,” he tells host Shiv Gaglani. One area of NIMH research that gets less attention than breakthrough medicines is how to make it easier for healthcare systems and practices to adopt best practices and proven treatments. This not only helps improve patient outcomes, but Gordon says it is one element in addressing feelings of a lack of effectiveness that contribute to provider burnout. “If we can increase individuals' efficacy by ensuring that they are trained in evidence-based approaches, and continue to make new treatments available to help those who aren't responding to the old ones, that's one way we can do that.” This is a rare opportunity to hear from a federal agency executive on some of the most pressing and interesting issues in healthcare including the shortage of providers, health equity, social determinants of health, telemedicine and the potential for psychedelics to treat mental health problems.   Mentioned in this episode: https://www.nimh.nih.gov/

The Crucial Role of Psychedelic Therapy Guides - Mary Cosimano, Former Director of Guide and Facilitator Services at The Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness ResearchAll of the promising research into the potential benefits of psychedelics in mental health treatment depends on having skilled professionals who can create a therapeutic alliance with participants and guide the sessions in which the compounds are administered. We could not have a betterRaise the Line guest for understanding this role than Mary Cosimano, LMSW, former director of Guide and Facilitator Services at the Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelics & Consciousness Research. Since the genesis of psychedelic research there two decades ago, she has conducted over 500 sessions herself as well as serving as a research coordinator.  In this fascinating conversation with host Shiv Gaglani, Cosimano discusses how she prepares for and processes the often-taxing sessions, the common themes that emerge from participants, and what qualities effective guides need to have. On that point, she thinks the role needs to be open to chaplains, nurses, hospice care workers, and others with the right combination of experience and personal qualities, not just to licensed medical personnel.  “What's as important is who they are, what they've done in their life and career, how much work have they done on themselves, do you feel comfortable with them?” This is a fascinating look into the heart of psychedelic-assisted therapy and the meaningful experiences participants can have when they are in the right hands.   Mentioned in this episode: https://hopkinspsychedelic.org/

Let's talk about the benefits of magnesium and the dangers of magnesium deficiency. A deficiency in magnesium could put you at risk for certain health concerns, such as: • High blood pressure • Arrhythmias • Tetany or twitching • Leg or foot cramps • Fatigue • Diabetes • Insulin resistance • Depression • Inflammation The RDAs for magnesium are 300 to 750 mg. But some people may need much higher amounts. It's important to consume foods high in magnesium and avoid certain things that deplete magnesium. Foods rich in magnesium are the ones high in chlorophyll, which would be green vegetables. The top things that deplete magnesium are sugar and refined carbohydrates. Other things that can lead to a magnesium deficiency include: • Diarrhea • Diuretics • Antibiotics • Alcohol consumption • Age For a magnesium supplement, you have a few different good options, including: • Magnesium citrate • Magnesium lactate • Magnesium glycinate • Magnesium aspartate • Magnesium gluconate Magnesium is important for the absorption of vitamin D and B vitamins.

For most of us (especially women), our relationship with food is complex, as is our perception of what we should look like. To break it all down, I spoke with Cole Kazdin, Award-winning journalist and author of What's Eating Us: Women, Food, and the Epidemic of Body Anxiety. Women of all ages and backgrounds struggle with a preoccupation with food and body anxiety. Cole was one of those women. She suffered from disordered eating. People would tell her how great she looked and asked for her secret. Her secret was quite a secret…she purged after eating.

Induction is offered to every mother routinely in the urban hospitals in India.The various issues are big baby, small baby, past due date , one episode of high blood pressure, all of which are not medical emergencies but perceived problems that are being brought to fit the solution to it. It is not a problem based solution scenario but more a solution based problem making. Induction as a procedure comes with its own set of risks, it is a pseudo attempt at 'supporting normal births' Oh we tried with Induction but oh it failed and we had to do a surgery, we gave you a chance.A real attempt at normal birth for majority of women should be waiting for spontaneous labor to begin. You will learn the risks of Induction, the process that should be used when it is introduced as well as the chronic case of 'Failed Inductions'Along with that I will share a little snippet from my training in Kolkata...Know someone who was offered Induction, tune in to know more....Few research papers we discuss here are: https://www.bmj.com/company/newsroom/new-trial-finds-small-benefit-of-inducing-labour-over-wait-and-see-approach-for-late-term-pregnancies/https://www.fogsi.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/XGCPR-IOL-26July.pdfhttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/14767058.2013.864274https://globalresearchonline.net/journalcontents/v39-2/34.pdfSupport the showPrepare for Birth, explore Prenatal and Postnatal Preparation Classes, visit www.birthagni.comSupport the show: If you like what you hear, leave us a rating on Spotify app and answer the question at each episode! a review on Apple podcasts.
