For most of us, the doctor only sees our blood pressure, weight and oxygen levels a few times a year, usually when something is already wrong. Is that really health care, or just sick care?In this episode of Experiencing Healthcare, Jamie Preston sits down with Your Health CEO Matt Staub to talk about remote patient monitoring (RPM). RPM is the subject of Matt's master's thesis and a program he championed from day one. He explains why Your Health invests in daily data when many fee-for-service systems hand out devices only after a crisis and take them back once things settle down. He also explains why he's proud to call himself "the most compliant patient in the practice."In this episode:How daily weigh-ins can catch fluid retention in heart failure patients before it turns into a hospital stayWhy the data matters as much to the patient as it does to the provider, and how it helps people build habits that stack on each otherWhy RPM should be tailored rather than one-size-fits-all, including when daily tracking can backfireWhat happens when a healthcare company holds its own workforce to the standard it asks of patients, with "grace with accountability"How healthier employees can mean lower insurance costs, stronger recruiting and happier teamsIf you lead a practice, run a business or care for an aging parent, this conversation will change what you think it means to stay healthy between appointments.

Deadline looms for ban on hemp-derived CBD/THC products—while legal pot proliferates; Scientists disclose IBD benefits of urolithin A; “Dry-fasting” is a new fad—is it healthy? Short “exercise snacks” to break up prolonged inactivity benefit attention and cognition; Kimchi and designer probiotics show promise for flushing out microplastics; LSD soon to be approved as a prescription for anxiety.

The best design in healthcare is the kind you never notice. When it works, a patient feels safe before a clinician says a word. When it doesn't, trust wears away one small friction point at a time.Jamie sits down with Mallory Phillips, creative director at Your Health. She led the creation of the company's logo and now helps shape how its teams learn. Mallory trained in advertising design at the Savannah College of Art and Design, and she argues that design is far bigger than logos and brochures. It covers forms, instructions, onboarding, the words staff choose, and the moment a clinician steps into a patient's home.In this episode:Why patient experience rarely fails because of one big mistake, and how a hundred small friction points do the damage insteadHow in-home care flips the rules: you're a guest in someone's home, so trust has to be earned differentlyWhat Chick-fil-A's "my pleasure" and Airbnb's "home away from home" can teach healthcareThe science of readable design, and why a confusing door handle is the designer's failure, not the user'sThe story inside the Your Health logo, from a handwritten signature to a plus sign that puts the patient at the centerIf you've ever wondered why some care feels personal and some feels like paperwork, this conversation answers it. You'll also come away noticing the small details that make people feel seen. www.YourHealth.Org

What happens to pharmaceutical innovation when your competitive window shrinks from eight years to just three?In this episode of Pharma minds, I speak with Marine Baxendell, CFO and co-fonder at xcube.bio, about a fundamental shift in the economics of pharma innovation.Science is moving faster. Competition is accelerating. And at the same time, MFN pricing, healthcare budget pressures and increasingly complex market access are challenging the traditional model on both sides of the Atlantic.An innovative treatment could once expect five to eight years before serious competition entered the same space. Today, Marine argues, that window can be closer to two or three years, even while the original molecule remains protected. So what happens when the time available to capture the value of innovation gets shorter?We explore:◾️ Why the next wave of pharma innovation is structurally different◾️ What MFN reveals about the limits of today's pricing model◾️ Why demonstrating patient value earlier is becoming critical◾️ What is really slowing market access in Europe◾️ Why being first to market may no longer be enough◾️ And what a more sustainable model for pharma, payers and patients could look likeMarine's perspective reframes MFN not simply as a threat, but as a signal that the rules of pharmaceutical innovation are changing.This is episode #4 of Europe's Access Dilemma: five perspectives on how Europe can make innovation affordable.To find Marine Baxendell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marine-baxendell/Resources mentioned in the episode:

What if one of the most powerful signals shaping your health isn't found in your labs, supplements, diet, or exercise routine—but in the quality of your relationships? In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores the biology of belonging and reveals why meaningful connection is far more than something that simply makes life enjoyable. Drawing from the landmark Harvard Study of Adult Development and other peer-reviewed research, he explains how loneliness, love, friendship, and community can influence stress, inflammation, emotional resilience, brain health, healthspan, and potentially even how long we live.You'll discover where love and connection fit within the Signals Method, how to evaluate your own “relationship fitness,” and simple ways to build more meaningful connection into everyday life. Because health isn't merely about adding years to your life—it's about remaining fully alive, deeply engaged, and available to the people and purposes that matter most.

Send us Fan MailVaginal dryness, painful sex, burning and nonstop irritation get brushed off as “normal aging” far too often and the bladder fallout is even easier to miss. We're talking about genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), a hormone deficiency problem that can affect the vulva, vagina, urethra and bladder, driving overactive bladder symptoms and recurrent UTIs. When GSM is treated, it not only improves comfort and intimacy, it protects urinary health and quality of life.We focus on the most effective first line therapy: vaginal estrogen. Speaking of Women's Health Podcast host Dr. Holly Thacker shares what's changed in the conversation around safety, including why the data on low dose local therapy is so reassuring, how correct placement keeps absorption minimal and what dosing often looks like for severe symptoms versus maintenance. If creams or tablets are not a fit or not enough, Dr. Thacker digs into other options. Vaginal DHEA can support tissue health and sexual function through local conversion, and vaginal rings offer convenience for people who want steady therapy.Support the show

MDs react to JAMA op-ed claiming autonomous AI will outperform doctors on routine medical tasks by 2030, spurring widespread layoffs: When even intravenous iron isn't enough to stave off anemia; “Emergency “ home medical kits draw ire of medical experts: Meta dinged $567 for teen addiction—why spending it for therapy of adolescents who are hooked on social media may be a waste of money; Adequate vitamin D minimizes post-op pain; When is a second prostate biopsy called for? 

If your doctor prescribes you medication without first asking about your diet, your sleep, your stress, or your vital signs — you don't have a doctor. You have a drug dealer.That's the provocation Scott Middleton brought to this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, and it's one that cuts straight to the heart of everything wrong — and everything possible — in modern healthcare. Scott is the Founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health, a healthcare organization built on the radical idea that prevention is cheaper, smarter, and more humane than reaction.In this conversation, Scott unpacks:Why most doctors have become de facto salespeople for pharmaceutical companies — and how to change thatThe staggering math of remote patient monitoring: how vital signs three times a week could prevent 50% of heart attacks and hospitalizationsThe GLP-1 opportunity hiding in plain sight — and why missing a patient's height is costing thousands of people access to life-changing careHow self-insured employers are bleeding money on avoidable hospitalizations — and what accountability actually looks likeScott's mission beyond the bottom line: a United Methodist minister who got into healthcare to save souls, not just bodiesIf you've ever left a doctor's appointment feeling like a transaction rather than a patient, this episode is for you. The data already exists to change that — we just have to decide to use it. www.YourHealth.Org

MFN isn't just a pricing debate. It is already changing how pharma companies think about where, when and how they launch new medicines.In this episode of Pharma minds, I speak with Laure Nas de Tourris, Partner at Clarivate, about what she is seeing on the ground as pharma and biotech leaders start adapting their commercial strategies to the new Most Favored Nation (MFN) environment.And one thing is clear:uncertainty is here to stay.From early-stage assets to upcoming launches and portfolio decisions, MFN is forcing companies to rethink the traditional launch playbook. US and European pricing have always been interconnected, but those links now need to be considered much more intentionally, and much earlier, from Phase I or II of development. Launch sequencing is becoming more complex, requiring teams to anticipate the impact across markets from the very beginning.We explore:◾️ Why MFN has become a top-of-mind issue for pharma leaders◾️ How MFN is already changing global launch sequencing◾️ Why even rare disease and early-stage assets may need to prepare◾️ How scenario planning can help teams navigate regulatory and pricing uncertainty◾️ Why commercial, market access, medical and other functions need to work together much earlier◾️ How pharma companies can build more flexible go-to-market models◾️ When it may make sense to deprioritize an indication, market or investment◾️ What delayed launches could ultimately mean for patient access to innovation◾️ And why “wait and see” may be one of the riskiest strategies of allThe companies best prepared for what comes next will not necessarily be those that correctly predict exactly how MFN will unfold. They will be those that build different scenarios, preserve optionality, connect decisions across their portfolio and prepare their teams early.Because under MFN, the old launch playbook may not be enough.This is episode #3 of Europe's Access Dilemma: five perspectives on how Europe can make innovation affordable.To find Laure Nas de Tourris:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenasdetourris/MFN as a Catalyst for Strategic Reinvention https://clarivate.com/life-sciences-healthcare/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/dlm_uploads/2026/09/MFN-as-Catalyst-for-Reinvention-Clarivate.pdf___

My labs came back "normal." So why do I feel like I'm falling apart and gaining weight?If you've heard that from your doctor, this one's for you. Andrea sits down with her friend (and her own doctor), Dr. Sarah Wilson, ND, founder and clinical director of Advanced Women's Health. They recorded this with no script, for both of their podcasts, and it shows. They laugh a lot, and they still get into the stuff most doctors skip.Sarah explains why she tests insulin and inflammation, not just FSH and LH, and why you can feel off for years before your labs show perimenopause. She uses a bank account analogy for insulin and fat storage that finally makes it click. Then they talk honestly about GLP-1 medications, what the big weight loss trials actually did, and why food, supplements, and medication don't have to be an either/or choice.Sarah also shares something personal. She used to weigh 100 pounds more than she does now, while eating well and working out, and it took years to find out why.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN- Why your labs can look normal when you feel anything but, and what "late reproductive" means- Which blood tests to ask about in perimenopause, including fasting insulin and inflammation markers- How insulin affects where your body stores fat, and why eating less often backfires- What the GLP-1 studies don't put in the headlines- 3 surprising things that can add to perimenopause weight gainCHAPTERS2:00 Why a Doctor Who Won't Budge Is a Red Flag2:31 Meet Dr. Sarah Wilson, ND5:36 "I Don't Know Where to Start" and How Your Feed Shapes What You Know8:06 Normal Labs but You Don't Feel Like Yourself?

Send us Fan MailDementia is one of the most feared diagnoses in aging, and it's also one of the most misunderstood. Speaking of Women's Health Podcast host Dr. Holly Thacker sounds the alarm on a reality many women never hear clearly: by advanced age, dementia becomes incredibly common, yet a large part of risk is shaped by choices we can start making now. The goal is not perfection or panic. It's building a prevention plan that protects your brain, your independence and your health span. She digs into why insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome matter for Alzheimer's disease risk, including how impaired glucose handling may reduce the brain's ability to clear amyloid proteins. From there, she gets practical about the big levers: restorative sleep and the brain's nighttime cleanup system, regular exercise (with a special edge for outdoor movement) and why alcohol can quietly sabotage deep sleep and brain function. We also talk about “brain stimulation” in real life, including how hearing loss, vision loss and reduced social connection can accelerate cognitive decline.Support the show

In this week's episode of The Armor Men's Health Show, Donna Lee is joined by Dr. Lucas Jacomides, a board-certified urologist with Urology Specialists of Austin, the practice that brings you this insightful, educational, and occasionally entertaining podcast about men's health.This week, we're answering listener questions—and apparently, nobody is getting any sleep because the bladder has other plans!Our first listener is a healthy 68-year-old man who has recently started experiencing bedwetting at night, despite never having issues with incontinence before. During the day, bladder control is completely normal, and even limiting fluids and using the bathroom before bedtime hasn't solved the problem. With normal PSA and urine test results, he wants to know: Is nighttime incontinence common as men age, what might be causing it, and what treatment options are available?Our second listener underwent GreenLight prostate surgery hoping to solve his frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom—but unfortunately, he's still waking up to urinate just as often as before. He wants to know: If prostate surgery didn't fix the problem, what else can be done about frustrating nighttime urination?Dr. Jacomides explains why nighttime urinary problems aren't always as simple as “it must be the prostate,” what other factors can contribute to nocturia and nighttime incontinence, and why getting to the underlying cause is so important when determining treatment.If your bladder has decided that 2:00 a.m., 3:30 a.m., and 5:00 a.m. are perfectly reasonable appointment times, this episode is for you.Tune in for answers to these listener questions and more helpful information from The Armor Men's Health Show!Have a men's health question you'd like us to answer on a future episode?

What if Europe's answer to the rising cost of pharmaceutical innovation wasn't simply to pay more, but to develop differently?In this episode of Pharma minds, I speak with Franck Le Deu, one of the few European voices with decades of first-hand experience inside Asia's rapidly evolving biopharma ecosystem.Franck spent 20 years in China as a Senior Partner at McKinsey, advising some of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies as China transformed from a market for Western medicines into a global source of biopharma innovation. Today, he is working on building bridges between Western innovation and Asian capabilities. That transformation is at the heart of our conversation. Because Europe faces an uncomfortable equation.The pharmaceutical industry has become increasingly US-centric. The majority of its profits are generated in the US, investment has followed, and Europe has progressively lost influence. At the same time, European governments face growing fiscal constraints, making simply spending more on innovative medicines increasingly difficult. Franck makes the case for another path: co-development with Asia.We explore:◾️ How China became one of the world's leading biopharma innovation ecosystems◾️ Why US pharma is moving faster than Europe to tap into Chinese biotech innovation◾️ How Asia could help reduce the cost and accelerate the execution of clinical trials and drug development◾️ Why Europe can no longer afford to look at China only as a competitive threat◾️ What Europe–Asia co-development could look like in practice◾️ How Europe could combine Asian capabilities with its own strengths in research, development and manufacturing◾️ And whether this model could help Europe regain pharmaceutical competitiveness while protecting its sovereigntyFranck's argument is not that Europe should replace its relationship with the US with China. It is that Europe needs to engage with Asia strategically, learn from ecosystems that move faster, and build new forms of collaboration that preserve European strengths and sovereignty.Ultimately, making pharmaceutical innovation accessible to more patients will require more than higher budgets. It means bringing R&D and manufacturing costs down, rethinking pricing, and creating ecosystems that know how to collaborate and compete.This is episode #2 of Europe's Access Dilemma: five perspectives on how Europe can make innovation affordable.Franck Le Deu: https://www.linkedin.com/in/franck-le-deu/Resources mentioned in the episode:

Most families don't know what skilled nursing actually is until the moment they desperately need it — and by then, the system feels impossible to navigate. Joy Patterson has spent 25 years inside that system. She's here to change what you think you know about it.In this episode, Jamie sits down with Joy Patterson, VP of Skilled Nursing Facilities at Your Health, for a straight-talking conversation about what skilled care really looks like, why it's constantly misunderstood, and what separates facilities that deliver exceptional outcomes from the ones that fall short.Key topics covered:Why "we have great relationships" no longer wins hospital referrals — and what C-suite administrators are actually asking forHow avoidable hospitalizations happen, and the clinical interventions that prevent them before a cough becomes pneumoniaThe staffing crisis hitting skilled nursing hardest, and how embedded partnerships change the equationWhat value-based care actually means at the bedside — and why it has nothing to do with cutting cornersThe questions every skilled nursing administrator should be asking a physician partner (but mostly aren't)Why physical presence inside a facility — not remote support — is the single biggest factor in better outcomes for residents and familiesWhether you're a healthcare professional, a family member navigating a loved one's transition, or a Your Health team member building fluency in the landscape — this episode gives you a clearer picture of what excellent skilled care looks like, and why it matters more right now than it ever has before. www.YourHealth.Org

If our health is a precision engine, many of us are unknowingly grinding the gears every single day. You mentioned we can take back control with a "Master Switch"—so where do we begin? What is the first step to cleaning out that engine? GUEST: The first secret may surprise you — It's the Order in which you eat your meals. ⦁ It's not just ‘WHAT' you eat. ⦁ It's ‘HOW' you go about eating it. ⦁ To flatten the spike ⦁ just follow this Protective Sequence. Always... ⦁ Start with ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar) ⦁ Then eat your Fiber. ⦁ Then Proteins and Fats. ⦁ And finally Carbohydrate, Starches and Sugars. 1st - ACV Eating (Apple Cider Vinegar) before your meal, ⦁ Signals your stomach to release food slowly, ⦁ preventing a "Sugar Bomb" flood. ⦁ Stops enzymes from flash-converting starches into glucose. ⦁ Commands muscles to vacuum up sugar ⦁ before it can damage your blood. ⦁ So, it significantly reduces the chances of a sugar spike 2nd — Fiber -- to build the filter A green salad is the perfect foundation ⦁ With a Vinegar Dressing, as an "Acid Shield." Biological Mesh-Builders include: ⦁ Broccoli ⦁ Spinach ⦁ Avocado ⦁ Okra This Mesh slows how fast sugar hits your blood. And limits the damage. 3rd - Protein— Eating protein before carbs changes your biology. ⦁ When protein hits your stomach, it triggers a hormone called GLP-1. ⦁ This signals your py-lor-ic valve to close. ⦁ It slows down gastric emptying. ⦁ Protein is a slow-release buffer. ⦁ The carbs then trickle into your blood ⦁ instead of flooding it. 4th — Starches and Sugars– By this time... ⦁ The "Biological Mesh" ⦁ from the fiber is in place. ⦁ The "GLP-1 Buffer" ⦁ has slowed the engine. ⦁ Now... ⦁ the carbs are no longer a "Sugar Bomb." ⦁ the "Valves" are closed ⦁ the sugar cannot flood the system. ⦁ It trickles in slowly And provides energy ⦁ You get to enjoy your food without a toxic spike. ⦁ So, Master the sequence and master your metabolism. HOST: Dennis, everyone knows Apple Cider Vinegar is great for blood sugar, but man… that stuff is really tough to swallow and the flavor... won't it kill your appetite. GUEST: It is Richard.

Send us Fan MailYou get your vitamin D results back and the report screams “HIGH” in red. Do you actually need to panic, or do you need context? Speaking of Women's Health Podcast host Dr. Holly Thacker walks through why vitamin D is often misunderstood, how age, latitude, indoor life, and sunscreen change what your skin can make, and why “normal” lab ranges don't always match what we're aiming for in real preventive care. She connects vitamin D3 to women's health in a practical way: bone strength and osteoporosis prevention, muscle function and fall risk, oral health, mood support, blood pressure, and the ripple effects of low levels during winter. She also talks through women-specific concerns we see every day, including PMS symptoms, pregnancy needs for fetal development and maternal health, and why nutrition and vitamin D status deserve a place in the broader conversation around cervical health alongside appropriate gynecologic evaluation. Finally, she explains the missing link that trips up a lot of people: magnesium. Because magnesium is required to metabolize and activate vitamin D, supplementing D without supporting magnesium can backfire with fatigue or cramps.Support the show

In this week's episode of The Armor Men's Health Show, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee are back answering more of your listener questions!Listener Question #1:“Dr. Mistry, I go to the bathroom four to five times a night. How can you treat this? I'm 65.”Listener Question #2:“I'm 54 and for several years I experienced increasing urinary frequency and extreme urgency—sometimes having less than a minute to find a bathroom. My PSA was 4.8, and an MRI showed a shadow on one side of my prostate, but subsequent biopsies were negative for cancer. I also have a family history of prostate cancer and have experienced nocturia. More recently, my urgency has disappeared and I can sometimes go most of the day without urinating. I was prescribed tamsulosin, but it didn't agree with me. Is this something you've seen before?”If you're getting up more than once during the night to urinate, you're not alone—and there may be more going on than you realize. Dr. Mistry breaks down nocturia, or frequent nighttime urination, and explains some of its potential causes, including poor sleep quality, incomplete bladder emptying, overactive bladder, pelvic floor spasticity, and polyuria (producing too much urine).Dr. Mistry also discusses elevated PSA levels, prostate evaluation, urinary urgency and frequency, and why changes in urinary symptoms deserve a closer look.The good news? You don't have to spend your nights making endless trips to the bathroom! The providers at NAU Urology Specialists take a comprehensive approach and use advanced testing to help determine what's causing your symptoms and develop an appropriate treatment plan.If you or someone you love struggles with frequent or urgent nighttime urination or other urinary symptoms, call 512-238-0762 or visit northaustinurology.com to schedule a consultation.Tune in to The Armor Men's Health Show for answers to real listener questions and helpful, straightforward conversations about urologic and men's health!

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.

"I'm not doing this just for you, I'm doing this for your sons. I'm doing this for your grandsons. You gotta show him you're fit, because if he sees you're a fat slob, he's gonna be a fat slob." — Nicky Billou Most men know what they should be doing with their health. The problem isn't information — it's the absence of a real decision, a real plan, and someone who will hold them accountable to both. Brian Parana has been working in health, fitness, and nutrition for 23 years, and he works exclusively with men who are stuck in the cycle — losing weight, gaining it back, never making it stick. In this episode, Nicky and Brian cover the mechanics of getting unstuck: the five pillars of Brian's 100-day fat loss program The Call to Rise, why men resist asking for help even when they've been struggling for decades, and what it actually takes to build a lifestyle a man can maintain long term. They also get into something most health coaches never touch — the generational argument. The man who gets serious about his health isn't just doing it for himself. He's setting a standard his sons will either follow or inherit the absence of. Nicky also shares his own story candidly — 12 years of writing down "get in shape" as a goal, gaining weight every single year, and what finally shifted. And Brian talks about fathering his own four kids through the noise of phones, social media, and the attention economy — and why he's relentless about making sure his sons create more than they consume. If your health has been on the list and never off the ground, this one is for you.

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

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.

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.
