The former Prime Minister Gordon Brown has added his voice to calls for an apology for what he has called the state's role in the "terrible tragedy" of historic forced adoptions. Between 1949 and 1976, thousands of pregnant women and girls in the UK were sent away to "prison-like" homes run by the church and state and had their babies put up for adoption. In 2021, an inquiry concluded that the State bore ultimate responsibility for the suffering inflicted on vulnerable women and their children, calling on the government to issue an official apology. Anna Foster was joined by Diana Defries, chair of the Movement for Adoption Apology and Karen Constantine, author of Taken, experiences of forced adoption, to give their reaction to the intervention by the former PM and whether they will be granted an apology.Paula Byrne, Jane Austen's biographer and also a novelist, has spent 25 years researching and writing about the iconic author. In this 250th anniversary year of Austen's birth, she joined Kylie Pentelow to talk about her new novel, Six Weeks by the Sea, which is her first fictional treatment of Austen and tells the story of how she imagines the most famous romance writer of all time first fell in love.If you've been watching any of the Women's Rugby World Cup you may have seen ‘high tech mouthguards being used. They will now flash red — signally potentially high impacts, requiring players to have a head injury assessment - a move aimed at improving player safety. So just how safe is it for women to play rugby? What are the risks of getting injured, and what is being done to mitigate those risks? We hear from Fi Tomas, women's sports reporter at the Telegraph, Dr Izzy Moore, reader in human movement and sports medicine at Cardiff Metropolitan University and Welsh Ruby Union injury surveillance project lead, and Dr Anna Stodter, senior lecturer in sport coaching at Leeds Beckett University, former Sottish International player, who also coaches the university team.After learning about the threat to harvest mice in the UK, 13 year old friends Eva and Emily decided to breed 250 of them at home and release them into a local nature reserve - with the help of a crowdfunder and Chris Packham. Women who've been stalked, or had to take out a restraining order, have a much higher chance of suffering a heart attack or stroke, according to a new study from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. It followed a group of over 66,000 women across 10 years, and found those who'd been stalked were 41% more likely to develop cardiovascular disease, with those who'd taken out a restraining orders 71% more likely to have heart problems. Kylie talked to Dr Audrey Murchland, one of the lead researchers who carried out the study, about their findings.Justine Lee is a knitwear designer of 30 years who fell out of love with fast fashion.

Heart disease is the world's biggest killer—and it often strikes without warning. It's responsible for around 1 in 5 deaths in the US. While these figures are deeply worrying, heart disease is not inevitable.  Decades of research have unearthed many of the risk factors associated with heart health, like poor diet or a sedentary lifestyle. In this episode, Dr. Nour Makarem outlines the latest scientific discoveries in this field and unveils some less-familiar risk factors. Drawing from large-scale population data and the latest wearable tech, she uncovers what makes heart disease so hard to spot, and what we can do today to prevent it.  Nour is a cardiovascular epidemiologist at Columbia University, whose research focuses on how our behaviors—like sleep, stress, and daily rhythms—impact heart disease risk.

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryThe shocking truth about prolonged sitting will make you want to stand up right now. While most of us understand sitting too much isn't ideal, few realize the serious health consequences backed by alarming research. Even if you're someone who exercises regularly, extended periods of sitting can dramatically increase your risk of chronic diseases.Research published in top medical journals reveals that sitting for long periods correlates with a 112% increased risk of diabetes and significantly higher chances of developing heart disease, particularly for women who sit 10+ hours daily. What's truly eye-opening is that these risks persist regardless of how much you exercise outside those sitting periods. The damage isn't limited to physical health either – prolonged sitting reduces the production of mood-enhancing brain chemicals like endorphins and serotonin, potentially contributing to depression and anxiety.But there's hope in small changes. Studies show that just two minutes of walking every hour could lower your risk of premature death by 33%. Ten minutes of daily physical activity reduces waist circumference and insulin resistance. Even simple habits like standing during phone calls, climbing stairs, or stretching before getting out of bed can counteract "gluteal amnesia" – also known as "dead butt syndrome" – where your body literally forgets how to properly activate crucial muscles after sitting too long. These small movement breaks reawaken your muscles, refresh your mind, and protect your long-term health.Ready to break the sitting cycle? Start with just 10 minutes of movement daily. Set reminders to stand every 50 minutes. Dance, stretch, or walk – whatever gets you moving. Your body and brain will thank you immediately and for years to come. Remember: if you don't pay attention to your health now, you'll be forced to pay attention to your illness later. What small movement can you add to your routine today?https://www.smallspacepilates.comSupport the show

This Gene's a Real MTHFR—Here's What It's Doing to Your Body This episode unpacks the powerful effects of the MTHFR gene mutation—on your heart, liver, brain, and mood. Learn how this tiny genetic hiccup can impact energy, detox pathways, mental health, and longevity—and what to do if you've got it.   5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Heart Disease Connection – MTHFR mutations elevate homocysteine, increasing risk for arterial inflammation, stroke, and dementia. Liver Strain – MTHFR dysfunction contributes to fatty liver and reduces the body's ability to detox. Glutathione Production – The gene impacts your ability to make antioxidants like glutathione and NAC, which protect against oxidative stress. Mood & Mental Health – MTHFR affects neurotransmitter production, especially serotonin and dopamine, increasing risk of depression and ADHD. You Need Methyl Donors – Supplements like methylfolate, P-5-P, SAMe, and betaine are crucial to bypass genetic bottlenecks and restore methylation function.   FEATURED PRODUCT Bliss, featuring SAMe and betaine (trimethylglycine), supports healthy methylation by donating methyl groups—essential for mood, energy, and detox.

In this solo episode, I delve deep into a topic that could revolutionise your understanding of cardiovascular health. The focus shifts from the conventional marker, LDL cholesterol, to a more predictive measure that has been right under our noses. Prepare to have your mind blown as I unpack decades of research, dismantles myths, and unveil practical steps for a healthier life. What You'll Learn: The Real Marker of Risk: Discover a much stronger predictor of cardiovascular and metabolic disease risk than LDL cholesterol. Challenging Norms: Understand why relying solely on LDL cholesterol is like flipping a coin when assessing heart disease risk. A Game-Changer: Learn about the Framingham study's revelation that this measure is 3 to 5 times more predictive of heart attack risk. Impacts Beyond Heart Health: Find out how this ratio also predicts risk for metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes. Practical Steps: Explore dietary and lifestyle changes that can improve your key ratio, enhancing overall metabolic health. Key Takeaways: The triglyceride to HDL ratio offers a more accurate risk assessment than focusing solely on LDL cholesterol.

Send us a textOverview and alternative interpretation to the mainstream view on how dietary fat and cholesterol relate to cardiovascular disease.Episode Summary: Tucker Goodrich is an engineer by training who has become a prominent independent researcher and blogger on nutrition and metabolic health, focusing on the harms of seed oils and polyunsaturated fats.About the guest: Nick Jikomes and Tucker Goodrich explore atherosclerosis and heart disease, critiquing the standard model that blames high LDL cholesterol while highlighting how oxidized LDL—driven by dietary linoleic acid from seed oils—plays a key role in plaque formation and inflammation; they discuss historical shifts in heart disease rates, genetic factors like familial hypercholesterolemia, the limitations of animal studies, and why reducing seed oil intake could prevent issues more effectively than just lowering cholesterol.Discussion Points:Atherosclerosis involves plaque buildup in arteries, often leading to heart attacks, but plaques contain oxidized fats and cholesterol, not just native cholesterol.Dietary cholesterol has little impact on blood levels or heart disease in humans, unlike in rabbits used in many studies.High LDL may not be inherently bad; oxidized LDL from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like linoleic acid causes macrophages to overeat and form harmful foam cells.Familial hypercholesterolemia patients only show higher heart disease rates in modern, industrial diets high in seed oils, not historically.Populations like the Kitavans and Tsimané have high apoB but no heart disease on traditional diets low in industrial foods.Fried foods are oxidized seed oils, explaining why they're unhealthy despite omega-6 fats being labeled "heart-healthy."Omega-3 fats can displace omega-6 in cells, reducing oxidation risk.Reference Papers:Witztum & Steinberg (1991)Boren et al. (2022)Related episode:Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. AquaTru: Reverse osmosis water filters.

From Missed Diagnoses to Life-Saving Alerts: How AI is Helping Doctors Detect Structural Heart Disease Before It Turns Deadly

I Don't Care with Kevin Stevenson

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming healthcare diagnostics, with some of the most promising breakthroughs happening in cardiology. Structural heart disease affects millions and frequently goes undiagnosed in its early stages, leaving patients vulnerable to serious complications. One such condition, severe aortic stenosis, often remains unnoticed until it becomes life-threatening—carrying a two-year mortality rate worse than many cancers if left untreated. As AI tools become more accurate and accessible, they offer a vital opportunity to detect these conditions earlier and improve outcomes across the board.So, can AI actually help cardiologists catch what they might otherwise miss—and what does that mean for the future of diagnostic care?On this episode of I Don't Care, host Dr. Kevin Stevenson sits down with Don Fowler, President of Echo IQ USA, to explore how Echo IQ is using AI-driven decision support to aid cardiologists in identifying structural heart diseases like aortic stenosis. They discuss how the tool works, why AI won't replace doctors, and how it could level the playing field between rural clinics and top-tier academic centers.Key highlights from the conversation…AI as an assistant, not a replacement: Fowler emphasizes that Echo IQ's AI tool doesn't replace physicians—it enhances their diagnostic capabilities, particularly for hard-to-spot cases like low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis.Equity in diagnosis: The technology helps address diagnostic disparities, particularly for women and rural populations, by providing consistent, phenotype-based analysis drawn from the world's largest echocardiographic dataset tied to mortality.Workflow integration is key: For AI to be adopted widely, it must fit seamlessly into existing clinical workflows. Echo IQ is designed to run within a cardiologist's normal environment, minimizing friction and improving efficiency.Don Fowler is a seasoned healthcare executive with over 35 years of experience leading global sales, marketing, and commercial strategy in medical imaging and diagnostics. He served as President and CEO of Toshiba America Medical Systems and spent more than two decades at Siemens Healthineers, holding key leadership roles including VP of Global Sales and Marketing for the MR business. Currently President of Echo IQ USA, Fowler is known for driving enterprise value through strategic execution, building high-performance teams, and serving as a trusted advisor across the healthcare and private equity landscape.

That's because most physicians aren't trained to look for common indicators of heart disease risk in the early stages, such as inflammation, insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, and silent plaque progression.In this episode, I sit down with cardiometabolic nutritionist Michelle Routhenstein to break down what's missing in traditional heart health advice. Michelle walks us through the lab numbers that matter most, how your gut and bowel habits relate to cholesterol, and why erectile dysfunction may be an early warning sign.She'll open your eyes to why eating “clean” doesn't equal heart-healthy, why so many are misled by low-carb and keto trends, and how to stop arterial plaque from accumulating silently for decades before the first event strikes."No matter where you are, no matter your age, no matter what you look like, heart disease does not discriminate between underweight and overweight." ~ Michelle RouthensteinAbout Michelle Routhenstein:Michelle is a preventive cardiology nutritionist and the founder of Entirely Nourished, a practice dedicated to reducing cardiovascular risk through evidence-based, personalized nutrition.

This week we go back in time to 2022 to re-enter the world of cardiogenetics and electrophysiology when we review the topic of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Is there a 'best' beta blocker for the treatment of this condition? Why is one better than others? How should one manage the patient who is intolerant of beta blockade but needs it for prevention of arrhythmia? What is the role of flecainide, sympathectomy or even ICD's for these patients? PhD candidate and physician Dr. Puck Peltenburg and CPVT world authority, Dr. Christian van der Werf (both of University of Amsterdam) share their deep insights this week. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056018.

Why do we screen for cancer but not the leading cause of death — heart disease? Today, we explore innovative strategies for early detection, prevention, and effective intervention in cardiovascular health.Join hosts Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, and Melissa Gentile, INHC, as they welcome Dr. Joel Kahn, a renowned cardiologist and advocate for plant-based nutrition and holistic approaches to heart health. Dr. Kahn delves into why heart disease has stubbornly remained the leading cause of death despite medical advancements, highlighting the need for a paradigm shift in prevention and early detection.Dr. Kahn critiques the current lack of attention paid to proactive cardiovascular screening, noting the puzzling discrepancy between routine cancer screenings and the absence of widespread use of tools like coronary artery calcium (CAC) CT scans for asymptomatic adults. He champions a personalized, comprehensive approach, moving beyond basic lipid panels and into genetic testing, advanced inflammatory markers, and detailed imaging.They also discuss dietary strategies, including debates on the role of protein and seed oils in heart risk, the importance of the endothelial glycocalyx, and recommendations for clinicians to assess and communicate vascular risk. Dr. Kahn challenges both traditional and trendy wellness beliefs, promoting evidence-based, personalized strategies in integrative cardiology.Key Takeaways from Today's Episode:
