Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 2-27-2025: Dr. Dawn addresses the alarming news of the first US measles fatality in almost 20 years, explaining how the disease led to the death of a healthy grade school child in Texas amid an outbreak of 124 cases, with 80% affecting unvaccinated children. She warns about subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), a delayed but fatal complication of measles infection that occurs in approximately 1 in 600 babies who contract measles before vaccination. The show highlights a community health survey about the Moss Landing battery fire, encouraging listeners to participate and share any symptoms experienced after the January incident. Responding to an email from Philadelphia, Dr. Dawn discusses adaptogens in mushroom coffee, recommending rotating different mushroom varieties to prevent tachyphylaxis, where the body becomes unreactive to the beneficial compounds. A caller asks about German measles (rubella) and its relation to regular measles (rubeola), with Dr. Dawn explaining they are completely different viruses offering no cross-immunity. Dr. Dawn explores fascinating research on tardigrades (water bears), explaining how scientists extracted their damage suppressor protein to protect mice from radiation, potentially benefiting cancer patients and space exploration. A caller asks about health impacts of indoor gas heating and cooking, with Dr. Dawn confirming that gas appliances produce harmful nanoparticles but suggesting heat pumps as a cleaner alternative. She discusses nature-inspired medical adhesives derived from mussels and mucus that work in wet environments, offering potential solutions for surgical glues, implant bonding, and infection prevention. The show examines innovative stool analysis techniques that can accurately detect dietary patterns from DNA in feces, potentially transforming nutrition science by eliminating unreliable food diaries. Dr. Dawn addresses an email about polyphenols in olive oil, highlighting their anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular benefits, and responds to Amy's email about a hand lump, suggesting that it is most likely a volar retinacular cyst. She concludes by exploring DNA origami technology, where scientists create microscopic structures that can bind to specific molecules, potentially revolutionizing medical testing through highly sensitive biosensors.
Parents are urged to ensure their children are up to date with their vaccination schedules amid increasing cases of rubella or German measles in some provinces. The National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD) has alerted the health department of a notable rise in rubella cases in various parts of Gauteng, Western Cape, Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Manager for Expanded Program of Immunization at the National Health Department, Elizabeth Maseti...

The Value of a Medical SherpaDr. Gerda Maissel, known as "Dr. Gerda the Medical Sherpa" is a physician with 10+ years of hospital/health system c-suite experience. When her mother was pregnant with her older brother she caught German Measles. Her brother was born with Congenital Rubella Syndrome. Growing up, Dr. Maissel saw the medical system treat both her mother and brother with a lack of dignity and respect. She chose to become a physician to help improve others' experiences. She chose the specialty of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation because of the focus on function in the context of people's lives and families. Dr. Maissel was pulled into leadership early on, rising up to become a Chief Medical Officer or Medical Group President inside several different health systems.

San Antonio Says the Term Chinese Virus is Racist – Dom B Podcast 142 Video Podcast - https://youtu.be/pJgAAovLG8A San Antonio’s City Council has passed a resolution stating the term Chinese Virus is racist and encourages hate crimes. San Antonio’s Mayor, Ron Nirenberg, presented in the resolution in hopes it will show solidarity with his community including Asian Americans. Once again it seems like freedom of speech is being nudged. I think free speech in the pentacle of American society. I disagree with this resolution and feel like if you wish to say Chinese Virus or Kung Fu Virus you should be able to. Covid-19 is called Chinese Virus because it originated in China. Just like German Measles originated in Germany. Do you think of Covid-19 as the Chinese Virus? Is saying Chinese Virus racist? Does saying Chinese Virus cause hate crimes? Id Chinese Virus an accurate description of the Kung Fu Virus?

I Had German Measles Today's topics include: That's right, John had German Measles back in the middle of the 20th century...and with a last name like Steigerwald, should he have been offended?... Next, John continues the discussion on the coronavirus and plays some clips from the liberal media, showcasing their idiocy. And finally, Ken Laird (Sports Producer - WEEI Boston) talks about a breaking sports headline with John...which just may have gotten more media coverage in Boston than the coronavirus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Thank you to our sponsors: Hatched at Home-Midwife Carrie LaChapelle: www.hatchedathome.com https://www.facebook.com/MidwifeCarrieLachapelleLMCPM/ 864-907-6363 Stephanie Sibbio’s Glowing Mama To Be Course: www.myhappyhomebirth.com/glowingmamacourse (15% off with the code: happyhomebirth15 ) Instagram: stephsibbiofitness Show Notes: “Holistic Hilda” is a health coach and podcast coach in the D.C. area. She has 4 young adult children, and a husband who is an athletic director Hilda’s own birth story: Hilda was born with a birth defect- a hole in her heart (because her mother was exposed to German Measles while pregnant). At 9, she had surgery to repair her heart. As a child, she had to be very careful. After her surgery, she was ready to live life to the fullest! This, she believes is what spurred her on to living such an active, healthy lifestyle. When Hilda became pregnant, although there were not as many resources regarding natural childbirth at the time (late 80’s-early 90’s), she did find The Bradley Method, which was everything she hoped it would be. She learned about avoiding the cascade of interventions Hilda self-describes her body type as being small in stature. She found out later that when she walked into the hospital, her doctor thought, “She’s definitely going to have a cesarean.” Hilda proved her wrong! Hilda had a friend who was working as her doula. She was there to support Hilda and her husband, and remind them of their plans of how they wanted to give birth. Baby #1 weighed 9 pounds, 15 ounces! Although Hilda has learned a great deal more about nutrition and holistic health since her childbearing years, she was still eating a relatively healthy diet and was certainly keeping active. “For all the moms out there, don’t ‘should’ on yourself. All we can do is move forward from this point in time.” I mention that the Weston A. Price Foundation focuses a great deal on eating a diet for growing healthy babies and nursing, but they also focus a great deal on pre-conception. I ask Hilda to explain what this looks like, and what we can be doing to encourage health, no matter what stage we are in: Hilda reminds mothers that if they have been on birth control for preventing pregnancies, we cannot immediately expect our bodies to become pregnant once we go off. There’s a time of rebalancing and releasing the hormones that have been given. “Detox”- shed little by little the things you can that you know aren’t favorable. “Your body needs to have the signal that you’re in abundance, and you’re able to bear.” Don’t have a scarcity mentality, which means avoid “dieting”. “Let your body know, ‘we’ve got what we need to produce a healthy baby’”. Detox your environment- get rid of air fresheners, perfumes, perhaps over-the-counter creams, and chemicals you can’t pronounce—these things are getting into your body through your skin, and they’re being absorbed by all of your cells. Take on and embrace: healthy foods. Nutrient-dense foods—a great example of which is liver. Take on and embrace: your intuition. Trust that your body knows what it needs, and don’t live in a place of fear. Consider, what is your emotional and spiritual state to have a baby? Hilda emphasizes the importance of giving your baby a peaceful environment to grow in—so work on the anger and anxiety beforehand! “I just feel like I was burning the candle at all ends- not just both ends! And it was to my detriment.” So go ahead and make those peaceful changes before conception. Take self-care seriously! Hilda discusses the work of Dr. Weston A. Price (whom the foundation is named after), and how his travels showed that all of these strong, healthy cultures had very specific pre-conception protocols and rituals. The mother and father would eat special diets of highly nutrient dense foods, like fish eggs. Finding good sources for these types of food is critical. The Weston A. Price foundation actually has an incredible resource for this through local chapter leaders. Find your local chapter leader and learn where to source the best food in your area! https://www.westonaprice.org/category/get-involved/local-chapters/ Hilda’s births: With her first, she focused on relaxing her jaw. She had her husband quote scripture- 1 verse- over and over. The nurses even commented afterward that it was like her husband was giving her drugs whenever he would do that for her! Hilda did struggle with some amount of preterm labor. In fact, with her 3rd birth, her doctor informed her that she needed to go on bedrest. For a fitness person like Hilda, this was rough news. Hilda talks about the benefits of not being so dogmatic in our beliefs about exactly how everything is supposed to go. She gives an example of a friend who planned a homebirth, but then ended up having to go into the hospital. Of course, this woman was disappointed not to have the homebirth she was expecting, but was grateful for the necessary care she received. On a lighter note of this- Hilda and I talk about routines with small children: She mentions that she used to give her kids baths at night, then put them to bed in the clothes they would wear for the next day. Her mother-in-law tended to raise an eyebrow at that! I mention how on the opposite end, I don’t bathe my daughter every day, which stresses my mother out! Hilda goes on to discuss the benefits of children not being raised in too-sterile environments. She mentions how health-giving it is for children to be exposed to the ambient temperatures of their surroundings, no matter what climate they live in. This is even helpful during the newborn phase, where expose to the outdoors helps set baby’s circadian rhythm correctly—meaning more sleep for everyone at night! Hilda’s last recommendations (3 factors): What we’re putting on our body in terms of light, especially at night. Red light is great for night, and maybe even use it in the baby’s room, and making sure that kids are getting out in the sunlight, and inform yourself about vaccinations, as it’s something that goes directly into your child’s bodies. Stay in touch with Hilda!: holistichilda.com and Instagram.com/holistichilda Episode Roundup: Don’t should on yourself Take out that which isn’t serving you, bring in that which does Let your kids be kids- get them outside, expose them to their climate, and let them PLAY Whatever decisions you make for your child- surrounding food, surrounding screens, even vaccinations- give yourself the empowerment of looking into these topics. There are so many touchy topics—whatever decisions you decide to make, feel confident in them by being informed.
