Most people think occupational therapy is what happens after something goes wrong. Tyler Broome is here to tell you that's exactly the framing that's costing patients their independence. In this episode of the Your Health University Podcast, Jamie sits down with Tyler Broome, a Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant at Your Health, to explore what OT actually is, how it fits into a truly integrated care model, and why the therapy team often sees the earliest signs of decline — before anyone else on the care team does. Tyler brings a uniquely grounded perspective, shaped by a baseball career, a grandmother's fall, and years of working inside the homes of real patients. He articulates something most healthcare systems have yet to fully grasp: that medical outcomes and functional outcomes are deeply connected, and that a care team working in silos is a care team leaving gaps. In this episode: Why occupational therapy is defined by daily function — bathing, dressing, meal prep, medication management — not just physical recovery How OT's presence in the home gives the care team "functional health intelligence" no clinic visit can replicate The difference between saying your system is integrated and actually delivering integrated care Two real patient stories where early cross-disciplinary communication prevented a crisis from becoming a catastrophe Why the shift to value-based care makes therapy's role not just important — but essential If you work inside the Your Health system — or if you've ever wondered what the therapy team actually contributes — this conversation will change how you think about the care happening around your patients every day. www.YourHealth.Org

Dr. Drew Pinsky joins Tudor Dixon for a wide-ranging conversation about the Lindsay Clancy case, postpartum psychosis, psychiatric medications, addiction, marijuana, Adderall, GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, and what he sees as major failures in America’s mental health care system. Dr. Drew breaks down the complicated medical questions surrounding Lindsay Clancy, including her psychiatric treatment, extensive medication history, and the critical difference between postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis. He explains why he believes the case raises serious questions about continuity of care, psychiatric prescribing, and whether patients with severe mental illness are receiving the intensive treatment they actually need. Tudor and Dr. Drew also examine America’s reliance on prescription medications, including benzodiazepines and Adderall, as well as the role childhood trauma can play in ADHD and addiction. Dr. Drew reflects on his experience treating patients during the prescription opioid epidemic and explains how aggressive opioid prescribing helped fuel the addiction crisis that eventually gave way to heroin and fentanyl. The conversation then turns to Hollywood and the struggles of former child stars, including Amanda Bynes, as Dr. Drew discusses the psychological toll childhood acting can have and the relationship between trauma, addiction, mental illness, and substance abuse. Plus, Dr. Drew sounds the alarm about increasingly potent marijuana and its potential connection to psychosis, bipolar illness, and cannabis hyperemesis syndrome. He also shares his concerns about the explosive popularity of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, including potentially serious side effects and what he describes as a troubling new form of body dysmorphia. It’s a candid conversation about mental health, addiction, modern medicine, and whether America has become too quick to reach for a prescription instead of addressing the underlying problem.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a number attached to every patient's chart that quietly shapes the resources they receive, the care they're offered, and whether their health conditions are fully seen — and most providers don't fully understand it. In this episode, Jamie sits down with Ericka Bauman, Director of Quality Assurance at Your Health, to break down the Risk Adjustment Factor — better known as the RAF score. Ericka has spent years traveling across Georgia and South Carolina, walking into provider offices, sitting with care teams, and doing the work of turning confusing data into meaningful patient outcomes. What you'll hear in this episode: What the RAF score actually is — explained the way Erica explains it to every team she visits, from providers to front desk staff Why most RAF scores are too low — and how underdocumenting a patient's conditions leaves them exposed to missed care, hospitalizations, and unmet needs The biggest misconception providers have about RAF (hint: it's not another box to check) How RAF and quality measurement are really asking the same question from two different angles — and why treating them separately is a mistake What changes for patients when care teams show up prepared, proactive, and looking at the whole person — not just the reason for today's visit The numbers will follow when you take care of the patient. This episode will show you how. www.YourHealth.Org

Send us Fan MailSpeaking of Women's Health Podcast host Dr. Holly Thacker talks about how your microbiome connects to metabolism, blood sugar stability, satiety, and long-term disease risk. That context matters when you hear the viral phrase “fiber maxing.” Done right, increasing dietary fiber can support steadier energy, healthier cholesterol patterns, improved regularity, and better weight management, especially when your carbohydrates come from whole foods with a lower glycemic impact.Dr. Thacker then discusses the most common infectious diarrhea causes that she sees and teaches on, including viruses that impair fluid absorption, bacteria that can trigger toxin-driven fluid loss, and parasites that often hide behind the label “stomach bug.” She gets specific about Cryptosporidium, Cyclospora, and Giardia: how they spread, what symptoms tend to stand out, why hydration is non-negotiable, and how contaminated water and produce can be the real source of the problem.She also shares practical, food-first ways to increase fiber without bloating: build meals around legumes, add chia or ground flaxseed, swap refined grains for whole grains, keep the skins on potatoes, and rinse, rinse, rinse your fruits and vegetables. She covers how fast to increase fiber (slowly), why you must hydrate, how to balance soluble and insoluble fiber, and when personalization matters.Support the show

Organizations demand infinite growth in finite markets. Leaders are left at the crossroads of irreconcilable missions, balancing economic imperatives with the well-being of their teams. What happens when the equation simply has no solution? The cost of execution is sometimes your own breaking point.Welcome to Pharma Minds, Summer Series "Executing differently takes courage". For this final episode of our miniseries, I wanted to explore what execution reveals about oneself at the deepest level. I chose to speak with Patrice because his journey shows what it concretely costs to actually do what you said you would do. Execution eventually ceases to be a professional requirement. It becomes a personal decision to put skin in the game, without a safety net, but with singular intention. Patrice Zagame is the Founder and CEO of Eolias Health, an OTC lab for plant-based products aimed at the Brazilian market. After spending 35 years in the pharmaceutical industry and managing global subsidiaries for 16 years, he knows the weight of impossible contexts. From handling severe price cuts and sales force reductions in France to surviving executive burnout and ultimately funding his own venture, Patrice embodies the courage of leaving the comfort of a massive organization to truly walk the talk.In this episode, we cover:◾️The Impossible Equation : Balancing double-digit growth demands with saturated markets and massive price cuts.◾️Choice Versus Chance : Why letting an organization dictate your pace can cost you the most crucial turns in your career.◾️The Silent Break : Recognizing the boiling point of executive burnout and walking away to change the equation.◾️Managing the Smartest Room : Stepping back from ego to lead experts who know more than you do.◾️Walking the Talk : Leaving corporate security to fund an entrepreneurial venture from scratch.Commitment is not a corporate posture. It is a daily decision renewed in the face of impossible contexts. At some point, managing the system is no longer enough.

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/dylan In this episode with Dylan Gemelli, you'll hear one of the wildest origin stories in the health world. Dylan went from college athlete to Milan model to cocaine dealer to a 15-year prison sentence, and came out on the Fourth of July with two felonies, no job prospects, and a decision to start over. Within a year he had a million YouTube subscribers explaining compounds almost nobody was talking about yet, and today he hosts the number one health and fitness podcast in the country. You'll also get the practical side: what SARMs really are and why he turned against steroids, what happened when a routine calcium score came back at 120 with an Lp(a) of 330, how he pushed back against the Mayo Clinic and got that number down into the 90s anyway, and what he learned about ejection fraction and chronic cardio the hard way. Dylan explains why he believes many biohackers are among the unhealthiest people out there, how stacking too many supplements and peptides creates redundancy that backfires, and which lesser-known peptides will rise in popularity.

Kellogg's has recently announced the discovery of vegetables and fruits. The AP reports: "it has identified fruit- and vegetable-based juices that will give cereals like Froot Loops and Apple Jacks their distinctive colors." The companies were utilizing produce along before this, so what took Kelloggs so long? Why lie? Is it simple marketing or is it blatant intention to deceive the consumer? Dannon has also ceased production of their coffee flavored yogurt, which never contained real coffee. Meanwhile, the new White House executive order on "gold" science for childhood vaccines recommends mRNA and covid shots. https://apnews.com/article/wk-kellogg-artificial-colors-froot-loops-apple-jacks-505ba65360a526f73830849b925e0bd9*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this deeply personal episode of The Breaking Free Podcast, I sit down with my cousin, Josh, to share a story that many people silently relate to, but few openly talk about. From the outside, Josh appeared to be living the dream, playing the sport he loved. Behind closed doors, however, he was battling feelings of being trapped, unhappy, and disconnected from himself. After making the difficult decision to walk away from football, Josh faced one of the hardest chapters of his life. Losing his sense of identity led to binge eating, declining mental health, and questioning his purpose. But this wasn't the end of his story. Josh opens up about how committing to an Ironman 70.3 became more than just a physical challenge, it became a catalyst for rebuilding his confidence, mindset, and direction in life. Together, we explore the importance of vulnerability, changing negative self-talk, building healthier habits, finding gratitude, and asking for help when life feels overwhelming. This conversation is a reminder that your darkest chapter doesn't have to become your final chapter. In this episode: Josh's hidden mental health battle Walking away from football Losing identity and purpose Binge eating and emotional struggles Building resilience through Ironman training Reframing negative self-talk Gratitude and mindset The importance of asking for help Supporting men's mental health Finding purpose after adversity If this conversation resonates with you, share it with someone who might need to hear it.

Somehow, Tim and May connect them all in another unfiltered episode of BS Free MD. The conversation kicks off with a nostalgic tribute to the Canadian Football League before taking a detour into bizarre climate headlines, including whether changing temperatures could threaten bird populations. From there, Tim and May dive into one of social media's hottest debates: the rise of the "trad wife." Are traditional family roles making a comeback, or has the internet turned the concept into something it was never meant to be? The hosts unpack the cultural shift, discuss why healthy partnerships don't fit neatly into internet labels, and share their own perspective on balancing careers, marriage, and family. Then it's time for one of Tim's favorite rants: cosmetic filler. From duck lips and body dysmorphia to plastic surgery trends and why saying "no" can be the best medical advice, they examine how social media and unrealistic beauty standards continue to reshape expectations. The episode wraps with an entertaining discussion on gym culture, attention-seeking fashion trends, and why confidence doesn't have to come with an exaggerated filter. As always, expect humor, strong opinions, and plenty of tangents along the way. In This Episode Why Tim still believes Canadian football is more entertaining than the NFL The surprising climate change story involving bird populations What the "trad wife" movement actually means—and what it doesn't Healthy marriages versus internet stereotypes Social media's influence on beauty standards Why facial filler can quickly go too far Body dysmorphia, cosmetic procedures, and knowing when enough is enough Gym fashion, attention, and modern fitness culture Tim's thoughts on plastic surgery versus injectable fillers A reminder that confidence doesn't come from social media trends Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this lively DocTales with Cocktails episode, Dr. May Hindmarsh and Tim Hindmarsh tackle the headlines surrounding a recent Cyclospora outbreak linked to fresh produce—and separate legitimate concerns from media-driven fear. The conversation dives into foodborne parasites, dehydration, gut health, and why not every alarming headline deserves a panic response. They also explore whether cooking vegetables may offer digestive advantages, discuss emerging research on curcumin as a potential therapy, and share practical advice on when gastrointestinal illness actually warrants medical attention. Of course, it wouldn't be BS Free MD without plenty of humor. The episode veers into bizarre consumer products, questionable inventions, and finishes with one of Tim's signature rants that has to be heard to be believed. In This Episode The recent Cyclospora outbreak and what's actually happening How common these infections really are—and why perspective matters Symptoms of parasitic gastrointestinal infections Dehydration: when to stay home and when to seek medical care Standard treatments versus emerging research on curcumin Raw vs. cooked vegetables and gut health discussions Food safety myths, salad bars, and produce handling Tim's latest "product we'll never own" A cocktail recommendation from Deep Eddy Vodka Key Takeaways Headlines don't always reflect actual risk. Most gastrointestinal infections resolve with supportive care and hydration. Severe dehydration, bloody stools, or worsening abdominal pain require prompt medical evaluation. Proper food handling and preparation remain important, but panic rarely is. Medical conversations are better served with context than fear.

The American healthcare system is built around a simple idea: get sick, get treated. But what if the problem isn't how we treat illness — it's that we've never seriously tried to prevent it? In this first installment of a two-part conversation, Jamie sits down with Brody Wall, Division President of Operations at Your Health, to trace the arc from a broken, reactive healthcare system to one where data tells you what's coming before the patient even knows something is wrong. Brody's path to healthcare wasn't through a textbook — it was through a father who was a Methodist minister and a mother who spent her career caring for underprivileged children. The mission was always there. The data just became the most honest way to fulfill it. In Part 1, Jamie and Brody cover: Why fee-for-service healthcare financially rewards volume of sick visits — not health — and how that one incentive structure explains why 17-20% of America's GDP goes to healthcare costs with outcomes that still lag behind other developed nations What Your Health was flying blind on before it committed to building a real data infrastructure — and what gut-feeling decisions look like when data finally proves them wrong How social determinants of health (Z codes) and behavioral health conditions (F codes) reveal which patients are actually at the highest risk of hospitalization The finding that changed everything: patients with four or more behavioral health conditions were ten times more likely to have multiple ER visits — and the clinical response that followed This isn't just a conversation about numbers. It's about what happens when an organization decides that preventing the crisis matters more than reacting to it. Part 2 drops next week. www.YourHealth.Org

Send us Fan MailPeptides are suddenly the hottest word in weight loss clinics, gyms, and wellness circles, but most people are hearing the hype without the definitions, the evidence, or the safety guardrails. Speaking of Women's Health Podcast host Holly Thacker, MD sits down with Layth Tumah, MD, a Cleveland Clinic physician board certified in family medicine, obesity medicine, lifestyle medicine, and trained in functional medicine, to explain what peptides actually are: short chains of amino acids that act as powerful signals in the body, sometimes in ways that look a lot like hormones.They get practical about the peptides people are most likely to encounter through their doctor: GLP-1 and GIP based medications used for diabetes and medical weight management. They clarify how the same underlying drug can be sold under different brand names depending on the indication, why shortages fueled interest in compounding pharmacies, and when compounding is a reasonable tool versus a risky shortcut. They also talk about the deeper “why” behind today's metabolic disease surge and why these therapies can matter for health span, not just the number on the scale.They end where real prevention always starts: food, movement, sleep, stress coping, and connection, plus the reminder that there is no "free lunch" when it comes to powerful supplements. Support the show

Most companies recruit interns to take work off someone's plate. Your Health does the opposite — and it's why several of its current executives, including a Chief Information Officer, first walked in the door as interns. In this episode, Jamie sits down with Heather Bower, Director of Experiential Learning, who has taken the reins of Your Health's internship, mentorship, preceptorship, and apprenticeship programs. Heather shares how a long-standing program is being rebuilt with structure, data, and intention — organized into semester cohorts, anchored by a four-day all-company orientation, and designed so every intern owns a project with genuine stakes. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why "get interns because they're cheap" is exactly the wrong spirit — and what replaces it How one MBA intern's shadowing experience redirected him toward nursing school The "spreadsheet whisperer" intern who taught regional leadership to pull data faster What surprises interns most once they're inside healthcare: the human complexity How Your Health uses feedback loops to move interns toward roles where they'll actually shine If you're early in your career and unsure where you fit, this episode is a map to possibilities you may not know exist.

Send us Fan MailFreedom is not just a political idea, it's also the ability to move through your day with energy, confidence, and choices that are not dictated by symptoms or chronic disease. We connect America's 250th anniversary theme of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” to a very current women's health reality: the obesity epidemic and the frustration many midlife women feel when weight changes collide with hot flashes, sleep loss, and brain fog.We break down common myths around menopause and weight, including the claim that menopausal hormone therapy causes obesity, and we explain what the research actually shows. Then we step into the fast-changing world of weight loss medications, from older drugs that were removed from the market to today's GLP-1 and GIP agents. Then we zoom out to something many people underestimate: social connection as a true health intervention. Social Wellness Month is a reminder that loneliness can harm health in ways that resemble other major risk factors. We share practical ways to build deeper relationships, volunteer, use technology wisely, and create summer traditions that strengthen community. You'll also get healthier July 4th menu ideas, simple recipe inspiration, and summer safety reminders from hydration to fireworks.Follow the show so you do not miss what's next, share this with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review to help more women find evidence-based health guidance.Support the show

Send us Fan MailOBGYN Dr. Richard Myers joins Dr. Erich Schramm to discuss the name change from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). This syndrome is the combination of three parts: increased polyendocrine hormones (like insulin and androgens), changing metabolism, and differences in ovarian function Dr. Myers explains that the name change to PMOS reflects the changing understanding and focus of the syndrome from a purely ovarian-centered approach to a more holistic, full-body treatment regimen. The doctors also discuss how different patient desires drive different treatment options and the need for individualized, patient-centered care. They finish by looking at new treatments, including GLP-1 and GIP medications that can help address the underlying metabolic components of the PMOS.Be a part of advancing science by participating in clinical research.Have a question for Dr. Koren?

If you've spent years trying to lose weight by controlling food, this conversation may change the way you think about weight loss in menopause. I recently joined Jerry Snider on the Confidence Through Health podcast to discuss why food noise, cravings, emotional eating, and weight gain are often signs that something deeper is asking for your attention. We explore how many women have become disconnected from their natural hunger and fullness signals and why reconnecting to those signals can create more peace around food. We discuss emotional hunger versus physical hunger, people pleasing, food noise, self-compassion, and why movement often serves us better than eating when stress shows up.
