The average life expectancy of a Canadian has grown over the past 200 years from below 40 to over 82 years. Canadians are living longer, but for many, it is not long enough.The pursuit of longevity is further evolving – becoming a passion feeding a booming industry promoting preventative and personalized health care strategies to increase not only our lifespans but our health spans as well. From cold plunges to red-light therapy – from sleep-tracking rings to biohacking practices, there have been many varying methods that have been featured by celebrities in the news and social media, that are claimed to promote life extension.But are any of these treatments grounded in science?Longevity also has “side effects”. When our retirement years can last longer than expected, it requires a different approach to savings and investment portfolio construction. There are insurance implications and immeasurable costs for the sandwich generation as they balance unpaid caregiving with paid employment – impacting economic productive and growth potential.This event will feature three very different approaches to longevity.On April 23, 2025, the Empire Club of Canada will first hear featured remarks from Dr. Kashif Irshad, Lifespire's Medical Director & Co-Founder on the evolving science of longevity that impacts health vitality and well-being.We are also honoured to welcome the remarks from Dr. Samir Sinha, Geriatrician and Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto and Director of Health Policy Research at the National Institute of Ageing, on the science of ageing from his perspective of his role as a renowned clinician and research who has been known to question the scientific basis for some of the emerging longevity practices being currently promoted.And to understand how living longer should impact your personal approach to financial and estate planning, we will welcome Alex Besharat, Executive Vice President, Canadian Wealth Management of Scotia Wealth Management to join our medical experts on a panel.This discussion will be moderated by Karli Farrow, President and CEO, Trillium Health Partners.

According to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM), nearly one-fourth of older adults aged 65 and older are at increased risk for loneliness and are considered to be socially isolated, with risk factors being attributed to hearing loss, losing family or friends, role changes such as retirement, living alone, and chronic disease. Geriatric syndromes — such as polypharmacy, falls, cognitive impairment like dementia and Alzheimer's disease, malnutrition, and incontinence — are clinical conditions and multifactorial impairments that are more commonly identified in older adults. Aging is definitely the normal trajectory of human life, but how can one age in a way that is considered healthy and with an optimal quality of life? How can an older adult look forward to the remaining years of life despite chronic illness? How can we help safeguard a geriatric's mental health despite feelings of abandonment, loneliness, and fear of being a burden to their caregiver/s?We are joined today by Dr. Christina Chen, a double board-certified geriatrician and internist at Mayo Clinic. She received her BS in Biology and Psychology from Michigan State University, MD from St George's University School Of Medicine, Internal Medicine residency at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, and Geriatric Medicine fellowship at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine.

At Oregon Health & Science University, the number of patients treated for falling injuries has increased by 90% compared with 2016. These are falls that occur on ground-level, not from heights. Nationwide, about three-quarters of those patients are over the age of 65. That’s why Katie Drago, an OHSU geriatrician and associate professor of medicine, says the problem is becoming “a growing public health emergency.” We talk with Drago about the study the hospital has begun to help people prevent these injuries, and the need for more attention on the subject.

In the 1900s, the average American lifespan was 47.7 years. Today, it is 78.8 years. 10,000 baby boomers turn 65 every day. In just over 10 years, 20% of the US population will be 65 and over. So, what are we doing to care for this growing population? The urgency around that question inspired Martha to start working with the Mount Sinai Health System NYC 15 years ago. Today's episode will be the first in a series of conversations that specifically addresses the needs of our aging population. Dan Josebachvili created a wearable medical device, the Silvertree Reach, to help older adults stay independent, but safe. Dr. Helen Fernandez, Vice Chair of Education for the Brookdale Department of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, is an expert on fall prevention and is working to re-frame perceptions around aging. The two join Martha to discuss issues that face older adults, and new products and innovations to help them live healthy, productive lives – what Martha calls “living the good, long life.”  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In an interview with SBS Filipino, Geriatrician Dr. Bong Sanosa and Norminda Forteza of AFCS shared the services of Maharlika Lodge, which aim to strengthen families with elderly members, along with their caregivers. - Sa panayam ng SBS Filipino sa Geriatrician na si Dr. Bong Sanosa at Norminda Forteza ng AFCS, ibinahagi ng mga ito ang serbisyo ng Maharlika Lodge na mapagtibay ang pamilya na may nakakatanda kasama ang mga carer.

It's been over two years since one of the worst product launches of all time - Aduhelm (aducanumab).  Praised by the FDA, Alzheimer's Association (AA), and Pharma as a “game changer”, but derided by others for the drug's lack of clinical efficacy, risk of severe adverse effects, absence of diversity in trial populations, high costs, and an FDA approval process that was in the kindest words “rife with irregularities”. Instead of Biogen's expected billions of dollars of revenue from Aduhelm, they brought in only $3 million in revenue for all of 2021 (here is my Twitter summary of this fiasco). The outlook on amyloid antibodies are looking brighter though in 2023.  Phase III studies for lecanemab and donanemab have been published showing less worsening of cognition and function receiving these agents versus placebo. This led the FDA to give full approval for lecanemab, which will likely be followed by full approval of donanemab sometime this year. However, as noted in our editorial published with the donanemab trial, the modest benefits of amyloid antibodies would likely not be questioned by patients, clinicians, or payers if amyloid antibodies were low risk, inexpensive, and simple to administer.  However, they are none of these.  So what is the role of individuals like geriatricians in prescribing amyloid antibodies and caring for individuals who are receiving them?  We invited three geriatricians and memory care doctors, Nate Chin, Sharon Brangman, and Jason Karlawish, to talk about this question and many others swirling around on how to safely prescribe these drugs and manage patients on them (like what to do about anticoagulation). Lastly, we also spend a little bit of time talking about the NIA-AA draft statement on redefining Alzhiemers disease.  There is a lot to digest with these draft clinical guidelines but the big change from the 2018 guideline is moving Alzheimers to a biological diagnosis (biomarker evidence only) not just for a research framework but now from a clinical one.  One outcome would be a very large population of older adults with normal cognition could now be classified as having Alzheimer's disease (maybe about a 1/3 of cognitively normal 75 year olds based on PET). So if you have thoughts on the matter, please give your feedback here to the NIA and AA. https://aaic.alz.org/nia-aa.asp By: Eric Widera

Is it true that women are from Venus and men are from Mars? Are men and women more alike or more different? Why do we seem to have totally different ways of communicating with one another, and how can we work together to build happier and healthier relationships?Dr. Ricky Arenson is a dual-trained Endocrinologist and Geriatrician who lives in Perth, Western Australia, with his wife of twenty years and their four children. As the head of a major hospital, working with patients who have reached 100 years of age, Ricky asked them what the secret to their longevity was… surprisingly it wasn't eating acai berries and doing yoga… it was having long-term positive relationships.His outrageously funny yet serious book ‘Women Are Superior to Men' explores why so many couples have the same arguments about how often to have sex, how men don't notice or pick up the mess they leave lying around, and how men communicate in grunts or jokes when their wives are looking for a serious conversation. It's an easy guide to creating and maintaining a magical relationship filled with love, joy, and better (and more frequent) sex.Ricky has helped over 30,000 patients, holds numerous medical awards, and was awarded a lifetime Outstanding Service Award by Royal Perth Hospital. He has also founded several businesses, owns a private medical practice, and is a stand-up comedian.Thank you to BetterHelp, an online therapy platform that has already helped millions, for sponsoring the show.

A crucial aspect of caregiving is keeping those in your care engaged and productive with simple, everyday tasks. Such activities can include folding laundry, arranging books, cooking, and eating. Not only does this provide purpose and enjoyment for the care recipient, but it also promotes independence and preserves dignity. Encouraging participation in daily tasks, even in a small capacity, can significantly enhance the overall quality of life for both caregiver and care recipient. In this podcast, Melissa Bernstein, an occupational therapist, and David Bernstein, a geriatrician with over 40 years of practice, share the importance of these regular activities and how they can benefit those receiving care. They stress the value of including all the senses in these tasks, such as playing music while cooking or eating. The goal is to create a rich, sensory experience that nurtures and engages the mind and body, thereby fostering continued independence and self-worth in the care recipient's life. In this episode, you will be able to: ·      Discover their groundbreaking "Power of Five" formula for preventing neurodegenerative diseases. ·      Explore compassionate approaches to nutrition and engagement for Alzheimer's caregivers and their loved ones. ·      Foster independence and uphold dignity in dementia and Alzheimer's care. ·      Unlock flavorful secrets from Melissa's cookbook for healthy eating and pet care.

Relationships are beautiful, intricate webs of connection and understanding, but they can also be challenging to navigate, especially when gender differences come into play. In this episode, we delved into the complexities of how gender dynamics can impact our interactions with our partners. From the importance of attunement and nurturing attitudes to recognizing and addressing each other's needs, we explored valuable insights that can help foster healthier and more fulfilling relationships. One of the key takeaways from this discussion was the significance of being in service of the greater good within a relationship. Rather than getting caught up in defending opposing views or trying to win arguments, it's essential to shift our focus towards understanding and supporting each other's deeper needs and desires. By harnessing this nurturing attitude and seeking to understand our partners on a deeper level, we can build stronger foundations of support and care.

This geriatrician paid off his student loans and achieved a net worth of $350,000 only 4 years out of training. He shows that you can make big financial progress even if your income is on the lower end of physician incomes. He shares that reaching these milestones was easier to achieve than he thought it would be. He recommends living like a resident, renting a home for 6 months post training and just hammer away at your loans. He said to make a repayment plan and stick with it. The relief from that debt burden is amazing and worth the hard work. Need some motivation to pay off your student loans quickly?

"It becomes critical for physicians to meet people where they are. COVID is not going anywhere, but because the population is getting vaccinated, we're seeing milder courses of illness, which is wonderful.” Dr. Mandi Sehgal - is a board certified Geriatrician and Family Medicine Physician. And she's more than just a FrieMMd of the Pod, she may just be related to one of our co-hosts. Since much to the dismay of our parents, we are still NOT doctors, and much to the dismay of...everyone, we are still in a global pandemic, the US Department of Health & Human Services asked to us enroll a real professional, so we decided to keep it in the family. Not just to talk about being vaccinated, but also getting your latest booster as we go into the fall and winter months. After all, if you're planning on getting together with your family, you should protect yourself and them by getting an updated COVID vaccine. But that's not all Dr. Mandi had to say, she also shared about her side of the story growing up in Alabama with Indian parents (and an annoyingly charming little brother). But also her journey into a field of medicine that is becoming increasingly important, despite what the fancy surgeons on TV tell you. So Sharon asks the questions she's been wondering about, Mandi sets the record straight, and Raman gets more and more uncomfortable. You won't want to miss this very special sibling show.
