WHAT'S YOUR BAD CHOLESTEROL LEVEL?

In this segment, we discussed the recent American Heart Association guidance on LDL cholesterol and the sobering estimate that only about one in three adults has their cholesterol adequately managed. For patients with risk factors for cardiovascular disease, the LDL target is now 55 mg/dL or lower — a number that is all too often overlooked when lab results are reviewed. The result is that many people are walking around with elevated LDL cholesterol, unaware that they are at meaningful risk for serious cardiovascular events including heart attack, stroke, and heart failure.The call to action for listeners is straightforward: log into your hospital or clinic patient portal, pull up your most recent lipid panel, and confirm that your LDL cholesterol is in range. Diet and exercise absolutely play a role in improving LDL, but lifestyle change alone is frequently not enough — particularly for patients with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, or fatty liver disease. In these cases, statin therapy is often the necessary next step, and it should not be viewed as a failure of lifestyle effort but as appropriate risk reduction.We also covered two additional recommendations. First, the AHA now advises a one-time measurement of lipoprotein(a). An elevated Lp(a) signals a substantially higher cardiovascular risk, and because the level is genetically determined, it typically will not improve with diet or exercise — making it essential information for guiding how aggressively other risk factors are treated. Second, a coronary calcium scan can bring your individual risk into sharp focus. A positive calcium score is a clear indication that aggressive intervention is warranted. Taken together, these three steps — knowing your LDL, checking your Lp(a) once, and considering a calcium score — give you and your clinician a far more complete picture of your true cardiovascular risk.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

Sappiamo elencare i nostri peccati a memoria, ma se qualcuno ci chiede quali doni abbiamo ricevuto restiamo zitti. Eppure è da lì che si parte per amare qualcuno. L’esame di gratitudine Dell’esame di coscienza sappiamo tutto: dove siamo caduti, dove ci siamo fatti fregare. Manca l’altra metà, quella di guardare la grazia ricevuta e dargli un nome. Ed è la metà che serve davvero, perché i doni sono lo strumento con cui ami qualcuno. Due segnali per riconoscere un dono Il primo è che quella cosa ti supera: la fai e capisci che è più grande delle tue capacità, che non viene solo da te. Il secondo arriva da fuori, quando persone diverse — anche chi non ti conosce — ti rimandano la stessa cosa. Se entrambi i segnali puntano nella stessa direzione, lì c’è un dono. Doni e capacità sono due cose diverse Saper suonare la chitarra, organizzare, stare con i bambini: quelle sono capacità, te le sei costruite studiando. I doni sono un’altra categoria — la fede, la compassione, la preghiera, la forza, la gioia — e stanno sopra il tuo livello. Confonderli è ciò che porta a cercare i doni nel posto sbagliato, e il Signore affida proprio sulle capacità che già hai il peso di un dono. C’è un lavoro concreto da fare: leggere Galati 5 e 1 Corinzi 12, scriversi la lista dei doni dello Spirito e poi chiedere agli amici più intimi quali di questi arrivano a loro attraverso di te. E insieme chiedere quelli che mancano — per crescere come Chiesa, nell’amicizia, nel cammino che state facendo. Buon ascolto!

Hello and welcome back to the show. I'm so glad you're here today because we're going to talk about something that could literally save your life—or at the very least, save you from years of unnecessary complications and suffering.Today's episode is inspired by a patient I saw in the clinic just recently. He came in with abnormal liver chemistry and what appeared to be a fatty liver on imaging. Now here's the kicker—his primary care physician had told him not to worry about it. Just watch it, they said. We'll keep an eye on it, they said.But this patient knew better. He took initiative, sought a second opinion, and came to see me. And I applaud him for that.Because as I've said time and time again—on this show, on social media, and to every patient who walks through my door—simply "watching" a lab abnormality or an abnormal scan is, in most cases, deleterious to your health.We see it all the time. Physicians downplay subtle abnormalities found on diagnostic studies. They tell you everything's probably fine. They say we'll just monitor it. And what happens? These small problems become much larger, much more complicated, and much harder to treat.Today, we're going to break down why "watching it" is not a credible health strategy, why you need to become an informed healthcare consumer, and what steps you should take when faced with abnormal test results.We'll discuss why many chronic diseases don't show obvious symptoms early on, how those vague symptoms get mistaken for more common benign conditions, and how this creates a false sense of security that can be dangerous.My message to you today is simple: Understand your abnormalities. Ask questions. Take action. And build a strong relationship with your healthcare team.Let's dive in.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

In this week's episode from our "Your Health First" radio program, Dr. Galati explores a topic that often goes unspoken in healthcare: the essential work required of patients, caretakers, and family members.Being on the receiving end of medical care isn't a passive experience—it demands active participation and commitment. Dr. Galati emphasizes that whether you're a patient facing a diagnosis, a caretaker supporting a loved one, or a concerned family member, success in navigating the healthcare system requires dedication to learning and understanding the disease at hand.The key to better health outcomes? Becoming an informed, empowered consumer rather than an idle observer. Dr. Galati discusses why patients and families must commit to truly understanding what's happening with their health, asking the right questions, and taking ownership of their care journey.While committing to learning about a specific disease certainly takes time and effort, Dr. Galati explains why this investment is not only worthwhile but essential for achieving the best possible outcomes.Tune in to learn how to transform from a passive participant into an active partner in your healthcare.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

This week I had my regularly schedule phone-in with syndicated radio host Michael DelGiorno. We discussed nutritional strategies for health as we age.LONGEVITY AND NUTRITION: 7-NUTRIENTS TO PAY ATTENTION TO AS YOU AGE. DR. JOE GALATI EXPLAINS…1. CalciumWhy it's needed: Keeps bones and teeth strong, helps muscles contract, and assists neurotransmitter release. As you age, the body leaches calcium from bones if you don't consume enough.Best Sources: Dairy (yogurt, cheese, milk), canned salmon/sardines with bones, kale, chia seeds, and fortified plant milks.2. Vitamin DWhy it's needed: Promotes calcium absorption and supports immune and brain health. Seniors often spend more time indoors and their skin becomes less efficient at producing Vitamin D from sunlight.Best Sources: Fatty fish (salmon, trout), egg yolks, and fortified foods like orange juice and cereals.3. Vitamin B6Why it's needed: Vital for metabolism and brain health. Older bodies break down B6 more quickly and absorb it less efficiently.Best Sources: Chickpeas (one cup provides over half the daily goal), chicken breast, bananas, and potatoes.4. Vitamin B12Why it's needed: Essential for the nervous system and red blood cell production. Roughly 10-30% of seniors have trouble absorbing B12 from food, often due to lower stomach acid or medications (like Metformin).Best Sources: Beef, seafood, and eggs. Experts recommend seniors get at least half their B12 from fortified foods (like nutritional yeast or cereals) because they are easier to absorb.5. ProteinWhy it's needed: To blunt sarcopenia(the gradual loss of muscle mass and strength). Nearly one-third of seniors do not eat enough protein.Requirements: Aim for 0.45 to 0.54 grams per pound of body weight (approx. 68–81g for a 150lb person).Best Sources: Greek yogurt, eggs, beans, tofu, and lean meats.6. FiberWhy it's needed: To prevent constipation and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. Most seniors fall well short of the recommended intake.Requirements: Men (51+) need 30g; Women (51+) need 21g daily.Best Sources: Lentils, whole grains, berries, and leafy greens.7. Total Calories (Energy Intake)Why it's needed: Appetite often declines with age, leading to unintended weight loss and weakness.The Approach: If appetite is low, focus on nutrient-dense, high-calorie foods rather than large volumes of food.Best Strategy: Use healthy fats like olive oil, avocados, peanut butter, and full-fat dairy, or drink smoothies with protein powder to ensure energy needs are met.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

The News and the Mystery of a "Sudden Illness"We begin by reflecting on the shocking news from July 11, 2026: the passing of 71-year-old Senator Lindsey Graham. While his office officially attributed his death to a "brief and sudden illness," the timeline raises significant medical questions. The Senator had just returned home from a high-stakes diplomatic trip to Ukraine on Saturday and was preparing for a national appearance on Meet the Press Sunday morning. We will set the stage by discussing the immense physical and mental pressure of his final days—balancing a rigorous international travel schedule, a recent primary victory, and his influential role in D.C.—all of which provide a critical backdrop for understanding how such a prominent figure could be active one moment and gone the next. Medical Analysis with Dr. Michael WilsonIn the second half of the episode, I am joined by cardiologist Dr. Michael Wilson to examine the likely medical culprits behind this tragedy. Specifically, we will dive into the hypothesis regarding the risks of long-haul travel, such as the development of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during a flight from Eastern Europe and how that can lead to a fatal pulmonary embolism. Dr. Wilson will help us translate this high-profile case into actionable health advice for our listeners, discussing how age, sedentary travel, and cardiovascular risk factors intersect. We'll conclude with a guide on "preventative vigilance," helping listeners identify their own risk for sudden cardiac events and the steps they can take to protect their wellness during travel and high-stress periods of life.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

The Silent Epidemic: Why Fatty Liver Disease Deserves Your AttentionThis is an incredibly important public health initiative, and I commend Liver Specialists of Texas and Houston Research Institute-Medical Center for offering free FibroScan screenings. Let me break down why this matters so much.The Hidden Danger of Fatty Liver DiseaseFatty liver disease has become alarmingly common—affecting nearly 1 in 3 American adults—yet it remains woefully under-diagnosed and under-treated. Many people dismiss it as a benign condition or assume nothing can be done. This is dangerously wrong.The progression is real: Fatty liver can advance to inflammation (steatohepatitis), then to fibrosis (scarring), and ultimately to cirrhosis—irreversible, severe scarring that can lead to liver failure and liver cancer. In fact, fatty liver disease is now one of the leading causes of liver transplantation in the United States.Risk Factors: A Metabolic Perfect StormThe risk factors you mentioned form what we call the "metabolic syndrome cluster":Obesity (especially abdominal fat)Type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetesHypertensionElevated cholesterol/triglyceridesEven having just one or two of these conditions significantly increases your risk. The liver becomes a repository for excess fat when metabolism goes awry, triggering inflammation and progressive damage.Hope on the HorizonHere's the good news: Fatty liver can be treated, stabilized, and even reversed—especially when caught early. There are now:FDA-approved therapies specifically for fatty liver diseasePromising clinical trials offering cutting-edge treatmentsLifestyle interventions that can make a dramatic differenceWhy Free FibroScan Screening MattersA FibroScan is a quick, painless, non-invasive test that measures liver stiffness (fibrosis) and fat content. Early detection is everything. By the time symptoms appear, significant damage may have already occurred.This initiative addresses a critical gap: awareness and screening. Too many people don't know they're at risk until it's too late. A free FibroScan removes barriers and could literally save lives.Take Action TodayDon't wait for symptoms. If you have any of the risk factors mentioned, take advantage of this opportunity.

Hot Car Deaths

Hot Car Deaths in ChildrenEvery year in the United States, an average of 38 children die from heatstroke after being left in hot vehicles, according to national safety statistics. Since 1998, over 900 children have lost their lives this way. What makes these tragedies particularly heartbreaking is that they're entirely preventable. A car's interior temperature can rise by 20 degrees in just 10 minutes, and on an 80-degree day, temperatures inside a vehicle can reach a lethal 123 degrees within an hour—even with windows cracked. Young children are especially vulnerable because their bodies heat up three to five times faster than adults. About half of these cases occur when a caregiver simply forgets a child is in the back seat, often due to changes in routine or stress.To prevent these tragedies, experts recommend the "Look Before You Lock" strategy: always check the back seat before leaving your vehicle. Place something you'll need—like your phone, purse, or employee badge—in the back seat next to your child, forcing you to open the back door. Keep a stuffed animal in the car seat when it's empty, and move it to the front seat as a visual reminder when your child is in back. Set phone reminders for daycare drop-offs, and arrange with your childcare provider to call if your child doesn't arrive as expected. Never leave a child unattended in a vehicle, even for "just a minute," and teach children that cars are not play areas.Carotid Artery Disease and Stroke RiskRecent research has revealed an important finding for those with carotid artery disease: individuals with significant narrowing of the carotid arteries may face an increased risk of stroke during heavy exercise. The carotid arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to the brain, and when they're compromised by atherosclerotic plaque buildup, intense physical exertion can potentially create conditions that reduce cerebral blood flow or dislodge plaque fragments. Key risk factors for cerebrovascular disease include high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and family history. Age, particularly over 55, and a history of heart disease or previous stroke also significantly elevate risk.The good news is that many of these risk factors are modifiable. To reduce your risk of both cerebral and coronary artery disease, focus on maintaining healthy blood pressure through regular monitoring and medication if prescribed. Adopt a heart-healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins while limiting saturated fats, sodium, and processed foods—the Mediterranean diet is particularly beneficial. Engage in regular moderate-intensity exercise, aiming for at least 150 minutes weekly, though those with known carotid disease should consult their physician before starting intense exercise programs. Quit smoking, maintain a healthy weight, manage diabetes through careful blood sugar control, and take prescribed medications for cholesterol and blood pressure consistently. Regular check-ups with your healthcare provider, including screening for carotid artery disease if you have risk factors, can catch problems early when they're most treatable.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

Diabetes Early Warning

#Diabetes is one of the most pressing #health challenges of our time, and it's far more common than many people realize. Today on NewsRadio KFBK, 93.1 FM and 1530 AM in Sacramento, with Cristina Mendonsa, we're focusing on type 2 diabetes and prediabetes—conditions that are affecting our communities on a massive scale. In the U.S., tens of millions of adults are living with type 2 diabetes, and many don't even know they have it. On top of that, an estimated 115 million people are living with prediabetes. Of those, about 25% will go on to develop diabetes if nothing changes—meaning that nearly one in four people with #prediabetes is already on a fast track toward a full diabetes diagnosis, often without obvious symptoms.In this episode, we unpack what those numbers really mean for individuals and families, and why they matter for anyone concerned about their long-term health. We'll break down some of the early warning signs and symptoms of diabetes—like increased thirst, frequent urination, #fatigue, blurred vision, and slow-healing cuts or infections—and talk about what patients and consumers should be watching for. We'll also discuss how these silent statistics translate into very real risks for heart disease, kidney problems, nerve damage, and more, and how recognizing prediabetes early can be a powerful opportunity to turn things around. Whether you've been diagnosed, told you have prediabetes, or just want to understand your risk, this conversation will give you clear, practical insight into the growing epidemic of diabetes and what you can do about it.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

This episode of the Dr. Joe Galati podcast discussed the top 7 strategies to reduce your chance of #cancer.Avoiding tobaccoTobacco use remains the leading preventable cause of cancer. This includes cigarettes, cigars, pipes, vaping, and smokeless products. Chemicals in tobacco damage DNA and cause cancers of the lung, mouth, throat, esophagus, bladder, pancreas, and more. Quitting at any age significantly lowers risk, with benefits appearing within weeks.Maintaining a healthy weightExcess body fat increases inflammation and hormone levels linked to at least 13 cancers, including breast, colorectal, endometrial, and kidney. Aim for a BMI between 18.5–24.9 through balanced eating and regular physical activity (at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise weekly).Avoiding risky behaviorThis covers limiting alcohol (no more than one drink daily for women, two for men), practicing safe sex to reduce HPV and HIV transmission, avoiding needle sharing, and steering clear of unnecessary radiation or toxin exposure. These behaviors directly elevate risks for liver, cervical, and other cancers.Getting routine medical careRegular check-ups and age-appropriate screenings (mammograms, colonoscopies, Pap/HPV tests, low-dose CT for lung cancer) enable early detection when treatment is most effective. Discuss family history and personal risk factors with your doctor to create a tailored screening schedule.Maintaining a diet rich in fruits and vegetablesAim for at least five servings daily of colorful produce, whole grains, and legumes. These foods provide fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemicals that help protect cells from damage. Limit processed meats, sugary drinks, and ultra-processed foods, which are linked to higher colorectal and other cancer risks.Protecting your skin against cancerUltraviolet radiation from the sun and tanning beds is the primary cause of melanoma and other skin cancers. Use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, wear protective clothing and hats, seek shade during peak hours (10 a.m.–4 p.m.), and avoid indoor tanning. Monthly self-exams and annual dermatologist visits aid early detection.Getting vaccinated against hepatitis B and HPVThe hepatitis B vaccine prevents chronic liver infection that can lead to liver cancer. The HPV vaccine protects against strains responsible for nearly all cervical cancers plus many throat, anal, and genital cancers. Both are most effective when given before exposure, ideally in adolescence or early adulthood.#cancerprevention #cancerrisk #longevity #wellness #vaccination #smoking #vegetables #skincancer #smokingHow To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

Every Tuesday morning at 10:15 am EST I join Cristina Mendonsa on Sacramento's New/Talk station KFBK to discuss the latest health stories in the news. This week, we discussed a NEW REPORT ON ALCOHOL SAFETY? LESS MAY BE BETTER FOR HEALTH1. Rapid Escalation of Risk After One DrinkThe primary finding of the "Alcohol Intake and Health Study" is that health risks accelerate significantly after a single daily drink. While the risk of premature death at one drink per day is 1 in 1,000, it jumps to 1 in 25 for those who consume two drinks a day—a level previously considered "safe" for men.2. Direct Links to Cancer and Chronic DiseaseThe study highlights that even light drinking increases the risk of specific diseases. One drink a day is linked to higher rates of liver cirrhosis, oral and esophageal cancers, and breast cancer. Higher consumption levels further increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and injury.3. Conflicts of Interest and Industry InfluenceA major controversy involves the NASEM report, a second study that reached a more "industry-friendly" conclusion by suggesting moderate drinking is healthier than abstinence. Critics noted that several panelists on that report had financial ties to the alcohol industry, raising questions about the objectivity of their findings.4. Scientific Methodology DiscrepanciesThe two studies reached different conclusions due to their methods:The New Study: Looked only at deaths directly attributable to alcohol (like liver disease).The NASEM Report: Looked at overalldeath rates. Critics argue this is flawed because moderate drinkers often have other healthy lifestyle habits (like better diets or exercise) that mask the negative effects of alcohol.5. Allegations of Government SuppressionRobert M. Vincent, the former official who commissioned the new study, claims he was fired because the results threatened commercial interests. He alleges that the findings were "sidelined" and "stalled" to protect the alcohol industry's profits, forcing the researchers to publish their work independently in a peer-reviewed journal.6. Vague Federal GuidelinesDespite the research, the resulting U.S. dietary guidelines were notably vague. They advised Americans to "drink less" but omitted specific daily limits. Health experts argue this lack of clarity fails to inform the public about the "significant risks" associated with consuming more than one drink per day.Commentary on the ControversyThe safety of alcohol use has become a battleground between public health data and commercial interests. For decades, the public was told that moderate drinking might be "heart-healthy." However, this article suggests that these perceived benefits may have been overstated or influenced by industry-funded research.The core of the controversy lies in the "safe limit"—while the industry and older guidelines suggested two drinks for men was acceptable, modern data indicates that this level carries a 4% (1 in 25) risk of premature death. Even though alcohol may offer minor protection against stroke or diabetes in some groups, the consensus among researchers like Dr. Ned Calonge is now clear: No one should start drinking specifically for health reasons.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

On our podcast today, we're tackling e‑bike safety—a fast-growing concern with sobering numbers. Reported e‑bike injuries surged from 751 in 2017 to 25,000 in 2022. Sixty-seven percent of crashes lead to hospitalization, and about a third of those patients land in the ICU. Helmet use lags behind traditional cyclists, intoxication is a frequent factor, and most fatalities occur in men ages 25 to 44. Part of the danger is physics: many e‑bikes hit or exceed 30 mph, and at up to 70 pounds, they carry far more momentum than a 17–20 pound road bike.We'll also look at policy responses on the podcast, including New York City's proposed Priscilla's Law, which would require license plates and registration so traffic cameras can enforce speeding and red‑light violations. Regulators are zeroing in on the delivery sector, pushing to hold companies—not just riders—accountable for unsafe practices.Some references to take a look at.U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

An unlicensed potato chip factory in Australia has been fined after authorities were tipped off by the facility's grand opening event.According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Western Australia “Spud King” Tony Galati created the house brand chips Spuddies so he could sell them at his Spudshed stores. He established a facility to manufacture the potato chips and acquired all the necessary equipment including an industrial peeler, blancher, fryer and weight checking system to help with portion control and bagging. He just didn't get any work approvals.The “Spud King” may have gotten away with it, at least for a little bit longer, if he hadn't planned and notified regulators about a grand opening event for the factory. But now the Galati Group has been caught for manufacturing without a license and for dumping “non-oily chip-making waste” without a license. The company has been fined $20,000, equal to about $14,000 in the U.S.This is not the first time the “Spud King” has gotten salty with regulators. Galati, a well-known potato grower in Western Australia, played a key role in the full deregulation of the state's potato industry. Even after the Potato Marketing Corporation was cooked, Galati was still found in contempt for purposefully planting more potatoes than allowed.In 2024, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission hit Galati with more than $60,000 in fines for trading with at least four growers without a horticulture produce agreement in place.No matter how you slice it, the “Spud King” sounds like a potato man who doesn't play by anyone else's potato rules.#manufacturing, #foodmanufacturing, #foodindustry, #industrialnews, #factorynews, #manufacturingnews, #australia, #businessnews, #operations, #compliance, #regulatorycompliance, #potatochips, #foodprocessing, #industrynews, #supplychain

Bukurešť své spojence a NATO požádala o koordinovanou mezinárodní reakci a přijetí opatření k urychlení dodávek prostředků pro odrážení dronů. Země, která je členem Severoatlantické aliance a Evropské unie, sdílí s Ukrajinou pozemní hranici v délce 650 kilometrů.Ukrajinský prezident Volodymyr Zelenskyj už oznámil, že jeho země je připravena poskytnout Rumunsku jakoukoli podporu, jaká bude zapotřebí.„Rumunsko by mělo na to samozřejmě reagovat, pozvat si ruské velvyslance, vyjádřit velmi silné protesty, případně dát najevo jiným způsobem nepřijatelnost takového chování z ruské strany. Pokud tedy je jisté, že ta raketa je ruská,“ reagoval Jiří Weigl. „Na druhé straně bychom neměli hnát svět na na okraj nějakého konfliktu mezi NATO a Ruskem. Za to dron v Rumunsku nestojí.“Nový poradce ministra zahraničí Petra Macinky (Motoristé) také komentoval vleklý spor vlády s prezidentem o účast na blížícím se summitu NATO v Ankaře: „Nerozumím tomu, proč se tady vůbec se vede tahle válka. Vláda tam chce prezentovat svoji politiku. Tak já být prezidentem, tak se tam nevlámu, nerozrazím dveře a nevyvolám ústavní krizi. Nedovedu si představit, že by Václav Klaus s premiéry, jako byl třeba Vladimír Špidla, se kterými si také příliš nerozuměl, na veřejnosti čtyři měsíce hrál takový stínový zápas.“Jak vážný incident v Rumunsku je? Jaké vztahy bude mít Česko s novou maďarskou vládou? A jak dopadne spor o to, kdo pojede na summit NATO?--Podcast Ptám se já.

I'm glad you're with us! Here is the rundown on our latest podcast.Today we're talking about something that can change the way you think about getting older: health span versus life span.Life span is simply how long you live—the number of years between birth and death. Health span is different. Health span is how many of those years you actually spend feeling well—strong, independent, mentally sharp, and able to do the things you enjoy without being limited by chronic disease, pain, or disability.Modern medicine has done a pretty good job of extending life span. People are living longer than ever. But those extra years don't mean much if they're spent going from doctor to doctor, juggling medications, or being too tired and too sick to enjoy your family, your hobbies, or your freedom. That's why health span is so much more important: it focuses on quality of life, not just quantity of years.In today's podcast, we'll break down the key differences between health span and life span, talk about the habits that truly move the needle, and give you practical steps to add more healthy, vibrant years to your life—not just more years to your calendar.Remember to tune in to Your Health First on 740 KTRH and streaming worldwide on the iHeartRadio app, every Sunday evening at 7 p.m. Central.

In this month's episode of my monthly SiriusXM program on The Catholic Channel (Channel 129), I sit down with longtime friend and collaborator David Goldberg — a fellow Holy Trinity High School (Hicksville, Long Island) alum — to preview my forthcoming book, Hope in the Harshest Moments: What Critically Ill Patients Taught About Hope, Advocacy, and Never Facing Illness Alone (tentative title), due out this summer.We trace how the project began, our shared history growing up on Long Island, and why we felt compelled to capture the voices of patients facing life-threatening illness. Through candid conversation, David and I share memorable interviews and the powerful moments that stayed with us: patients who insisted on dignity and agency amid fear, family members who became tireless advocates, clinicians who practiced compassion beyond protocol, and small acts of faith and kindness that made all the difference.Key themes explored in the episode:Hope as an active choice: how patients expressed and sustained hope even when prognosis was dire.Patient advocacy: examples of self-advocacy and family advocacy that changed care trajectories.Presence and accompaniment: the vital role of being with someone through suffering, spiritually and practically.Lessons for caregivers and clinicians: how to listen better, honor patient priorities, and support dignity in care.The intersection of faith and medicine: how belief, ritual, and community informed patients' resilience.Throughout the broadcast we mix storytelling with practical takeaways — for medical professionals, caregivers, and anyone who may one day face serious illness in themselves or a loved one. We also discuss the writing process, ethical responsibilities when documenting patient stories, and how hope can coexist with realistic care planning.Listen for intimate patient moments, reflections on advocacy, and faith-rooted insights that underscore our central message: you don't have to face illness alone. Tune in for a hopeful, compassionate conversation that invites listeners to reconsider what it means to accompany someone in their hardest hours.Book note: Hope in the Harshest Moments is tentatively scheduled for release this summer.

Dr. Joseph Rogers of the Texas Heart Institute at Baylor College of Medicine was our guest this past week on Your Health First. He delivered a thorough overview of cholesterol, cardiovascular risk factors, and what Americans need to know to protect their heart health. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death among adults in the U.S., so understanding your personal risk is critical. Dr. Rogers urged listeners to calculate their own 10-year cardiovascular risk and to review the results with their physician—decisions about starting statins or other lipid‑lowering therapies should be individualized based on that risk profile. He also noted that current guidelines generally recommend lipid‑lowering treatment for people with diabetes or chronic kidney disease.For detailed guidance and a risk calculator, visit: https://professional.heart.org/en/guidelines-and-statements/prevent-calculatorTune in to Your Health First every weekend at 7:00 PM Sunday (CST) on 740 KTRH and the iHeartRadio app for more expert health interviews and practical advice.How To Reach Dr. Joe Galati and his Team:For an on-line consultation or press inquiries, contact Teresa Reyes at 713-794-0700Dr. Galati's Newsletter Sign-UpLiver Specialists of TexasGet a Copy of Dr. Galati's BookDr. Galati on FacebookMessage Dr. Galati and his team Hosted on Acast.

Today I'm joined by my colleague and friend, Dr. Chuma Egwim, a hepatologist with Liver Associates of Texas and at Houston Methodist Hospital. Dr. Egwim and I are talking practical strategies to be a better patient and a stronger self-advocate—how to take an active interest in your health and wellness so you're not just an idle bystander. We'll discuss why an annual physical with basic screening labs matters, what to do when abnormalities show up, and how to press for clear explanations rather than accepting vague “watch and wait” answers. Much chronic disease, especially liver disease, evolves over years or decades, and early warning signs can often be caught with careful history, exam, and testing. If you want to be a more informed consumer of healthcare and stay engaged in your wellbeing, this conversation is for you.
