God Gives a Jesus Follower's Life Meaning and Purpose, Satisfies their Hunger to Know Their Life's Purpose, and Forgives Their Sins MESSAGE SUMMARY: As Jesus tells us in John 15:12-14, that you, as His follower, are His “friend: “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends.". God became flesh, and He dwelt among us. God became human to draw you into a personal relationship with Him. In John 1:14, the Apostle John identifies Jesus as the “Son of the Father”: “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.". God alone can satisfy the meaning and purpose of your life. God alone can satisfy your hunger to know your life's meaning. Most importantly, God alone can give you forgiveness of your sins as Paul tells us in Colossians 2:13-14: “And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.". Jesus' life, miracles, death, and His Resurrection are invitations to a life-long personal relationship with God, the Creator of the Universe. Our personal relationship with God is through His gift, to Jesus Followers, of the Holy Spirit. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, help me to grab hold of you today. I need you. Set me free to begin reorienting my life around you, and you alone. Help me to pay attention to and honor how you have uniquely made me. Thank you for the gift of rest. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 122). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Fear Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Faithfulness. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

In Part 1 of this 3-part series, New York Times bestselling fitness author and celebrity trainer Jorge Cruise reveals why “physical hunger” is often not real hunger at all.Most people blame willpower. Or they assume the only answer is a GLP-1 drug. But the truth is simpler — and more fixable: mineral deficiency.When your body runs low on key minerals, hunger signals get dysregulated. That can trigger constant cravings, “snack attacks,” and overeating — even when you've had enough food.In this episode, Jorge explains the 3 minerals tied to hunger regulation:• Sodium (salt)• Magnesium• PotassiumThis is all leading to a FREE 90-minute live Zoom event where Jorge will teach his approach, including “Zero Hunger Water,” and how to shut down physical hunger naturally.https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83964851796?pwd=h6aVopb3X3cdy3b0j60nmwbADGarC7.1COMING NEXT• Part 2 (Saturday): Emotional Hunger • Part 3 (Sunday): Restore Lean Muscle FREE LIVE EVENT (SIGN UP)Monday, December 8th — 5:00 PM Pacific (Live on Zoom)To get the invite and all details, join the email list here:https://www.jorgecruise.com/p/welcome-to-the-revolutionWEBSITE JorgeCruise.com FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAMhttps://www.instagram.com/jorgecruisecoachingHandle: @jorgecruisecoachingSHARE THIS EPISODEIf someone you love struggles with cravings, overeating, belly fat, or “always being hungry,” send them this.

Hunger in India isn't just a problem of empty plates.It's a problem of broken systems.Every single day, cities discard tonnes of perfectly edible surplus food—while families in the same neighbourhood skip meals, stretch rations, or head to work on an empty stomach. It's a contradiction we've normalised.And perhaps the most heartbreaking part?Hunger is invisible.People who need help rarely ask.People who want to help often don't know where to begin.In this episode, we bring you a story that cuts through the noise with a solution that's simple, dignified, and quietly transformative.We're joined by Dr. Issa Fathima Jasmine—dentist-turned-changemaker and the founder of The Public Foundation, the force behind India's community fridge movement, Ayyamittu Unn.What began as a single fridge placed in a public space has grown into a nationwide ecosystem rooted in dignity, sharing, and collective responsibility. Dr. Issa's work proves that fighting hunger doesn't always require grand infrastructure—it just needs systems that bring people together.We explore:Why hunger in India is less about food scarcity and more about systemic gapsThe early fears, resistance, and social perceptions she battled while installing the first fridgeHow community fridges are kept safe, accountable, and running every dayHow stereotypes—like judging a woman by her saree—shape leadership, courage, and public perceptionHer vision for a “kindness curriculum” in schools, and what she believes every 10-year-old should learn about giving and receivingWhy dignity must be at the heart of any solution to hungerCreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Issa Fathima JasmineResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#CommunityFridges #AyyamittuUnn #HungerFreeIndia #FoodWaste #UrbanCompassion #SocialInnovation #TheGoodSight

Jason Kelce tells the WIP Morning Show that he wants to see Jalen Hurts run more. Joe DeCamara asks if the Eagles have become a “less hungry dog” since winning the Super Bowl last season. Kelce does not feel that struggles on the field are due to a lack of effort.

Host Billy Shore talks with Chef Erik Bruner‑Yang (Maketto, Ours at Manifest) and Immigrant Food co-founder Peter Schechter about immigration enforcement, ICE checkpoints, and what that means for D.C. restaurants and workers. They explain how they use know-your-rights training, ICE location group chats, and Uber rides for staff. Gastro‑advocacy tools, like Immigrant Food's weekly Engagement Menu, are deployed to keep people safe and engaged. Listeners hear how local action, focused on a 20‑block radius, can rebuild community, support immigrant staff, and keep restaurants alive in a very uncertain time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Listen to this episode and subscribe for monthly nutrition clarity. In this episode we break down eating disorder vs disordered eating in a way that helps you understand the disordered eating spectrum. We use real examples and common social media trends to show how disordered eating often hides in "normal" habits. We also clear up the biggest nutrition myths that fuel disordered eating, including ingredient obsession, sugar fear, macro confusion, and the belief that fat makes you fat. You will learn why all edible food breaks down into the same three macronutrients, what your body actually recognizes, and how simplifying nutrition can transform your relationship with food. Finally, we react to viral social media claims like fasting rules, feasting culture, food porn, and the question, "Do I really need to feel full at every meal?" If you want a grounded, science-backed conversation about eating disorder reality, disordered eating habits, and the nutrition truths lost in online noise, this episode is for you.

Send us a textWhat if your strongest cravings aren't about food at all? As we talk through this topic together, we admit how often our cravings have nothing to do with actual hunger. We share openly about the ways we've reached for food, scrolling, or constant busyness when what our hearts really needed was comfort, truth, or simply God's presence. We walk through the lies we've believed—“I deserve this,” “This will help,” “I'm on my own”—and how we've learned to exchange them for steadier promises: God is near to the brokenhearted, He satisfies the longing soul, and in Christ, we are never condemned.We also get practical about what helps us in the moment: the “emergency kits” we each keep nearby—devotionals, warm tea, encouraging notes, different Bible translations, worship playlists, and written truth statements. We describe the mind-renewal practices that have genuinely helped us shift our focus: gratitude liturgy, praise moments that celebrate who God is, and simple prayers that invite the Holy Spirit into the empty spaces we used to fill with numbing. We share tender stories from seasons of care-giving, illness, and loss, and how grieving honestly—yet with gratitude—lightened the load. Our hope is to help you treat hunger with curiosity instead of panic, letting the Lord meet you right where you are.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Topics We Cover: 00:00 – New data from Harvard/Mass General may classify nearly 70% of adults as having obesity 03:00 – A new oral triple agonist shows record-setting absorption rates 07:00 – Fractal Health's Revita procedure: weight maintenance after stopping GLP-1s 12:00 – Zepbound vial prices drop (full breakdown by dose) 16:00 – Dave's personal experience switching off Mounjaro and intense hunger return 22:00 – Novo Nordisk's EVOKE/EVOKE+ Alzheimer's trial: what the data really means 29:00 – Why GLP-1 neurological research is just getting started 33:00 – Updates on access, partners, and major news coming soon for Medicare patients If you're on Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Saxenda, Trulicity, or compounded versions, this episode gives you the insight and context you need to have more competent and confident conversations with your doctor. Bullet Point Summary of the Podcast Episode New Obesity Measurement Data (Harvard/Mass General Study) Harvard and Mass General propose adding waist circumference to BMI to better diagnose obesity. Traditional BMI misses key factors like muscle mass and body composition. Using the updated measure, Americans classified as obese jumps from ~43% to almost 69%. This means 7 out of 10 U.S. adults would now qualify as having the disease of obesity. Dave notes this validates many people who “feel” metabolically unwell despite a “normal” BMI. Reinforces his claim that “most people should be talking to their doctors about GLP-1s.” New Oral Triple Agonist (Ascletis – ASC41/ASC? Molecule) From Ascletis (A-S-C-L-E-T-I-S), developing an oral triple agonist targeting: GLP-1 GIP Glucagon Similar in mechanism to retatrutide, expected around 2027. Preclinical (animal) data show stunning results: Oral bioavailability of 4.2% 9× higher than tirzepatide 30× higher than oral semaglutide 6× higher than oral retatrutide 57× greater drug exposure than oral retatrutide Half-life ~56 hours Stronger receptor activation than retatrutide in vitro Suggests potential for the first powerful oral triple agonist—worth watching. ️ 3. Discussion of the Gray Market / TikTok Experience Dave briefly recounts losing his TikTok account and landing in an algorithm filled with teenagers promoting gray-market “retatrutide.” Expresses concern over unregulated peptide sales, especially to minors. Fractal Health's New Data – Weight Maintenance After Stopping GLP-1s New results from the Reveal One study (Fractal Health). Participants: lost 24% of body weight on GLP-1s → stopped injections → got one Revita procedure. At 6 months post-GLP-1 discontinuation: Weight changed only 1.5% (vs. ~10% regain in typical off-drug trials) HbA1c barely shifted Safety profile clean Suggests possible long-term weight maintenance without injections through gut mucosal re-lining. Dave describes his own recent attempt to switch drugs and significant hunger return. Food Noise & Biologic Hunger Dave discusses how stopping Mounjaro caused terrifying, primal hunger. Describes the distinction between: Food noise (brain-based thoughts) Hunger signals (biological/animalistic) Reinforces why many patients cannot maintain weight loss without support. Zepbound (Tirzepatide) Cash-Pay Price Reductions Eli Lilly drops cash-pay vial pricing: 2.5 mg: $349 → $299 5 mg: $499 → $399 7.5–15 mg: $499 → $449 Community feedback (informal poll): Most say still too high to leave compounded versions. Many would switch to branded if price hit $200–$300. Dave notes the Most Favored Nations agreement will push GLP-1 prices toward $250/month within 24 months. Alzheimer's Study (Novo Nordisk – EVOKE & EVOKE+) Oral semaglutide (Rybelsus, 14 mg) did not slow Alzheimer's clinical progression. Biomarkers improved but daily function and cognitive decline did not improve vs placebo. Important context: Oral Rybelsus is a weak form of semaglutide; stronger versions (like Wegovy 2.4 mg or upcoming high-dose oral Wegovy) not tested. Weight loss is not desirable in Alzheimer's patients, influencing drug selection. Dave emphasizes: This was a nearly $700M trial and an act of scientific courage. This is NOT the end of GLP-1 Alzheimer's research. Future molecules may target neurological pathways without suppressing appetite. Mentions Lilly's brenipatide, a GIP receptor agonist being developed for: Addiction Opioid dependency Possibly asthma ️ 8. Access, Cost, and Patient Empowerment Highlights Shed as a partner offering telehealth GLP-1 access. Notes many patients hide GLP-1 use from their primary care doctors. Reinforces OTP's mission: better, more honest conversations with clinicians. Shapa (Numberless Scale) & Dave's Personal Update Dave explains how the Shapa numberless scale helped him stay engaged during weight fluctuations. Finds stepping on “zones” (green/gray/blue) less emotionally damaging than numbers. Closing Notes Promises upcoming Eli Lilly savings card update. Encourages subscribing, liking, and enabling notifications for algorithm visibility. Thanks OTP community for amplifying patient-centric obesity medicine news.

Thanksgiving Day dawns with the family buried in snow and slowly starving, unable to eat anything except the impossibly tempting feast Marcus has prepared. The transformed family members from across the centuries sit as shadows at the table when Thomas Brennan enters—now eight feet tall with sideways-opening mouth and fingers that drag the floor, yet his eyes remain human and suffering. As family members succumb to hunger and transform into Wendigos with each bite, Emma discovers Mary Brennan's hidden writing revealing the curse can only work if they choose to eat—starvation will break it—and that an altar in the cave is the source. Emma cleverly uses the transfer ritual to make Thomas the "chosen one," causing him to consume himself in an endless loop of hunger, while Sarah and Pete crack the obsidian altar in the cave despite warnings that breaking it means death for all. The family survives and appears free when the hunger vanishes with the altar's destruction, but they find a final note from Josiah warning that hunger never dies, only sleeps, and a new empty journal appears with Sarah's unwritten words already inside. As they flee the cabin, Emma sees Thomas's human form in the reflection, crying and mouthing either "thank you," "I'm sorry," or "still hungry"—they'll never know which—leaving them as eternal guardians of a sleeping hunger that waits for the next family desperate enough to make the same terrible choice.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Episode 207: Understanding Hypertension and Diabetes (Pidjin English)Written by Michael Ozoemena, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.HypertensionSegment 1: What Is Hypertension?HOST:Let's start with the basics. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Think of it like water running through a garden hose—if the pressure stays too high for too long, that hose starts to wear out.Hypertension, or high blood pressure, means this pressure is consistently elevated. It is measured using two numbers:Systolic: the pressure when the heart beatsDiastolic: the pressure when the heart relaxesNormally reading is around 120/80 mmHg. Hypertension is defined by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) as 130/80 mmHg or higher.The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) defines hypertension as persistent elevation of systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure, with the diagnostic threshold for office-based measurement set at 140/90 mm Hg or higher.Segment 2: Why Should We Care?HOST:Hypertension is known as “the silent killer” because most people have no symptoms. Even without symptoms, it steadily increases the risk of:Heart attackStrokeKidney diseaseThink of high blood pressure as a constant stress test on your blood vessels. The longer it goes uncontrolled, the higher the chance of complications.Segment 3: What Causes High Blood Pressure?HOST:Hypertension usually doesn't have a single cause. It often results from a combination of genetic factors, lifestyle, and underlying medical conditions.Modifiable FactorsHigh-salt diet and low potassium intakePhysical inactivityTobacco useExcessive alcohol intakeOverweight or obesityChronic stressPoor sleep or sleep apneaNon-Modifiable FactorsFamily history of hypertensionBlack race (higher prevalence and severity)Age over 65Hypertension may also be secondary to other conditions, such as kidney disease, thyroid disorders, adrenal conditions, or medications like NSAIDs or steroids.Segment 4: How Is It Diagnosed?HOST:Diagnosis requires multiple elevated blood pressure readings taken on different occasions. This includes office readings, home blood pressure monitoring, or ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.If you haven't had your blood pressure checked recently, this is your reminder. It's simple—and it could save your life.Segment 5: Treatment and ManagementHOST:Lifestyle changes are often the first line of treatment:Reduce salt intakeEat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grainsAim for 150 minutes of moderate exercise per weekManage stressMaintain a healthy weightGet enough sleepLimit alcoholQuit smokingIf these steps aren't enough, medications may be necessary. These include:Diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, Calcium channel blockers, Beta-blockersYour healthcare provider will choose the best medication based on your health profile.Segment 6: What You Can Do TodayHOST:Here are three simple, actionable steps you can take right now:Check your blood pressure—at a clinic, pharmacy, or at home.Pay attention to your salt intake—much of it is hidden in processed foods.Move more—even a 20-minute daily walk can help reduce blood pressure over time.Small steps can lead to big, lasting improvements.SummaryHypertension may be silent but understanding it gives you power. Early action can add healthy years to your life. Take charge of your blood pressure today.Diabetes1.

If you feel frustrated, disappointed, or stuck right now, you're not broken – you're human. The real question isn't “What's wrong with me?” It's “What needs to change, and how do I actually change it?” In this solo episode, Alan unpacks a simple but powerful idea: only the hungry change. You can't force your kids to change, your team to change, or your friends to change. You can barely force yourself to change. But when hunger meets a clear process, transformation becomes possible. Alan walks through a practical framework he calls the Wheel of Transformation – moving from new awareness, to new actions, to new rhythms. He shares personal stories about getting called out on weak hamstrings, losing steam on his goals, and how small, consistent steps have led to real change over time. If you've ever felt like you've tried to fix the same thing a hundred times and you're still stuck, this episode will give you language, hope, and a concrete path forward. In this episode, you'll learn: Why frustration and disappointment are usually gaps in expectation, not signs that you're failing What it means that “only the hungry change” – and how to honestly assess your own hunger How new awareness (internal or external feedback) is the first step toward real change Why information alone is not enough – and what has to come after clarity How to move from awareness to new actions through courage and small next right steps Why the real transformation happens when new actions become new rhythms Where most leaders stumble: trying to change without community, accountability, or a clear process How coaching, tools, and simple calendars can help you build consistency instead of chasing quick fixes Key ideas and phrases “Only the hungry change. Hunger is the currency of change.” “Information isn't bad. It's just not enough.” “New awareness → new actions → new rhythms.” “Great leaders aren't the ones who take one big step; they're the ones who keep taking their next right step.” Resources and next steps Wheel of Transformation Tool Want a simple visual tool to help you walk through this process?

Doctor Who continues to light up our television screens after sixty-two years. In all those years there have been periodic discussions within fandom over whether a particular story or time period within the series is sexist or even if Doctor Who as a whole has sexist undertones. In recent years, the charge has come that... The post The 42cast Episode 263: Is Doctor Who Sexist? appeared first on The 42cast.
Linda Hazzard - self-proclaimed “fasting specialist” and actual sadistic fraud - ran one of the most disturbing medical scams in American history. At her Washington State sanitarium, later nicknamed “Starvation Heights,” she starved countless patients under the guise of curing everything from aches and pains to cancer. Her brutal regimen of near-total fasting, daily enemas, and bizarre “massage” beatings left a trail of emaciated victims...Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

One in every eight households in the U.S. isn't always sure where the next meal will come from. Limited food access can spell hunger – and that can affect the body and mind. So can cheaper, less nutritious foods. Hunger has a huge impact on individuals – and whole societies. It can mean shorter term issues like trouble focusing, as well as longer term mental health and physical struggles like chronic disease and social isolation. Host Regina G Barber speaks with experts looking at the impacts of food insecurity – from the known tolls and misconceptions to ways to bridge the gap.If you liked this show, check out our episode on loneliness and the brain.

Guests:Karen Tolkkinen is a columnist for the Minnesota Star Tribune who writes about issues and people of greater Minnesota. She recently wrote a column about her experience turning to food assistance at two different points in her life.Susie West is a University of Minnesota Extension educator who manages and leads a program that helps make food shelves more dignified and inviting — places where families can choose food the way they would in a grocery store.Subscribe to the MPR News with Angela Davis podcast on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify or RSS.Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.

Some cars have gullwing doors, like the DeLorean in Back to the Future. They look amazing — but why don't more cars have them? As you'll hear, there are several surprising (and practical) reasons why this futuristic design never became mainstream and probably never will. https://www.dacemotorgroup.co.uk/blog/the-history-of-gullwing-doors-and-why-they-were-so-rare If you've ever felt truly hopeless, you already understand the extraordinary power of hope — because when it's gone, everything changes. Hope gives us direction, energy, and purpose. It's what gets us up in the morning and helps us persevere through uncertainty. Psychologist and researcher Dr. Julia Garcia, author of The 5 Habits of Hope: Stories and Strategies to Help You Find Your Way (https://amzn.to/4hKtWNd), joins me to explore how hope works in the brain, how to build more of it in your life, and why it's one of the most powerful forces in human psychology. You have a sixth sense — and it's not psychic. It's called interoception, your ability to sense what's happening inside your body. Hunger, thirst, fatigue, and even intuition are all part of this hidden system that connects body and mind. Science journalist Caroline Williams, author of Inner Sense: How the New Science of Interoception Can Revolutionize Your Health (https://amzn.to/4oN8Boo), reveals what researchers are discovering about this remarkable sense — and how tuning into it can improve your health, focus, and emotional well-being. And finally, if you've ever had a fruit fly land in your glass of wine, you know how fast they can find you — and ruin a drink. But how do they track it down so quickly, and why does even one tiny fly spoil the whole glass? The answer is both fascinating and a little gross. https://www.livescience.com/7256-fruit-flies-find-wine.html?utm PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
