Podcasts about Internal medicine

This episode is sponsored by Rupa Health and Athletic Greens.While inflammation is a natural part of life that can serve a beneficial role, we start to see disease when inflammatory pathways are constantly activated. That's why many brain symptoms—like brain fog, anxiety, memory loss, and more—can actually be caused by systemic inflammation. The foods we eat, the toxins we're exposed to, our stress levels, and our genetics are just some of the many aspects that can impact the body—and the brain's—propensity towards inflammation. In this episode, I discuss inflammation in the brain with Dr. Todd LePine. We dive into the many factors that can drive neuroinflammation, the range of conditions that are linked to brain inflammation, and how we work with patients to cool this inflammation. I also talk with Max Lugavere about how nutritional deficiencies affect the brain.Dr. Todd LePine graduated from Dartmouth Medical School and is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, specializing in Integrative Functional Medicine, and is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. He has been practicing Functional Medicine for over 15 years focusing on Optimal Aging, Bio-Detoxification, Gastrointestinal Health, Systemic Inflammation, Autoimmune disorders and the Neurobiology of mood and cognitive disorders.Max Lugavere is a filmmaker, health, and science journalist and the author of the New York Times bestselling book Genius Foods: Become Smarter, Happier, and More Productive While Protecting Your Brain for Life. He is also the host of the #1 iTunes health podcast The Genius Life.

Humanity and human interactions make medicine beautiful, but they also make error and failure inevitable parts of the field. Failures in medicine range from struggles on medical school exams and pimp questions to medical error, and in each of these situations, we benefit ourselves and our patients by treating “failures” as opportunities to learn and grow rather than as shameful secrets. Within a three part series on Failure in Medicine, we explore medicine's deep-seated discomfort with “failure” and ways we can better manage our mistakes. For part 1 of this series, we talk with Dr. Thalia Krakower, an Internal Medicine physician at Massachusetts General Hospital about her piece “To Err is Human, To Apologize is Hard” in which she describes her family's experience suffering from medical error and what it highlighted about the medical field. Dr. Krakower's story emphasizes the importance of confronting medical mistakes personally, institutionally, and with patients. 

Democrats and Republicans don't agree on much—and, generally speaking, they don't agree on health care policy.  But Robert Hackey and Todd Olszewski tell us that there is a rich history and potential for actual cooperation on policies intended to keep Americans healthy and the nation strong. Bob Hackey is a Professor of Health Policy and Management at Providence College and an Affiliate of the Taubman Center for American Politics & Policy at Brown University.  He is the author of two university press books on state health care regulation and the rhetoric of health care reform, and co-edited two other volumes on health care reform.  Hackey's research on health care professions, health care in popular culture, state health planning, and the regulation of medical providers has appeared in more than 20 peer-reviewed journals including the Journal of the American Medical Association, the Journal of the American Academy of PAs, and the Journal of Popular Culture, among others.  In 2018, he served as a guest editor for the Rhode Island Medical Journal‘s special issue on the PA profession.  For more than a decade, his research has focused on how Americans talk about health care and health care reform.  He earned his Ph.D. in political science from Brown University in 1992. Todd Olszewski is an associate professor of health policy and management at Providence College, where he also serves as associate director of the Center for Teaching Excellence.  He was previously a Stetten Fellow in the History of the Biomedical Sciences at the National Institutes of Health.  He has published on the history of heart disease and clinical research in Annals of Internal Medicine, the Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences, and the Rhode Island Medical Journal.  Olszewski's research focuses on how medical research and public health institutions—like the NIH—translate scientific discoveries into clinical practice, technological innovation, and public policy.  He earned his Ph.D. in history with a concentration in the history of medicine from Yale University in 2008.

For decades, the portrayal of cancer in movies and television was grim. If a character was diagnosed with cancer, it was a near certainty they'd be dead by the credits. But, like cancer treatment itself, Hollywood evolved, and many storylines about cancer became stories of survival. In this episode, we ask the question, "Who influences us and why?" From musicians to television stars, film producers to televised cancer screenings, when celebrities lend their voices to raising awareness and fundraising, that kind of star power can move mountains. Join us as we hear from voices such as actor Patrick Dempsey, StandUp2Cancer Co-Founders Katie Couric, Pam Williams, the late Laura Ziskin. Also appearing in this episode: Steven Hoffman (Professor of Global Health Law and Political Science at York University in Toronto, Canada,) Dr. Larissa Nekhlyudov (Director of Internal Medicine for Cancer Survivors at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute,) Kami Kosenko (Professor of Communication at North Carolina State University,) and Milton Kent (Former reporter and sports columnist for The Baltimore Sun).

r. Alexandra Sowa is a dual board-certified physician of Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, helping thousands of patients through her practice in New York.  Seeing a growing need for patients to easily be able to get access to relevant lab tests that can help diagnose as well as track responses to interventions, she has created the concept of at-home testing.  Once the kit arrives at your door a simple finger prick is all that is required to collect the samples which can then be mailed off to the lab and the results come back days later.  For me, the most exciting test she offers is insulin.  Before, it was such a task to find a doctor who would even order an Insulin test for you and then after the doctor visit you had to physically go to the lab to get it done.  Now that is a thing of the past.  Listen to this awesome chat we had with her about this new concept and if you want to contact her or order a test kit you can find her at: Website: alexandrasowamd.com Instagram: @alexandrasowamd

Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the US. Dr. Kahn is on a mission to help the general population reduce their likelihood of developing heart disease in their lifetime. There are several lifestyle factors Dr. Kahn attributes to helping reduce the risk of heart disease. By stopping smoking, eating a majority plant-based diet, and improving the quality of your sleep, you have a lower chance of avoiding heart disease. Saying that, however, there are certain hereditary markers that can increase your development of the disease. So when this is the case for you, Dr. Kahn says it's even more important to keep your lifestyle factors to a minimum.   Plants Based Eating for Optimal Heart Health Dr. Kahn is an advocate for a majority plant-based diet. A diet rich in plants is much healthier for the heart as it tends to be lower in cholesterol. But make sure you're supplementing on this type of diet, especially Vitamin B12. Certain nutrients are better for heart health. While most come from a healthy plant-based diet, some are more difficult to get naturally. Dr. Kahn shares the best supplements for optimal heart health and explains why we should all use supplements for our health. Finally, we talk about what lab and blood tests you should ask your doctor for to check your markers. In particular, it's important to keep an eye on your cholesterol, both LDL and HDL, as this has a massive impact on your heart health. How much of a plant-based diet are you eating?

Amidst those protocols there are doctors, nurses, attorneys, patient advocates, as well as journalists that are acting as whistle-blowers.

Fragmented health care is a known issue for patients and providers, and nowhere is the problem as acute as it is in the over-65 population. Studies have shown that patients who have a strong relationship with a primary care provider (PCP) who coordinates their care have better outcomes. But care provided by specialists has expanded over the past 2 decades, and the average PCP has twice as many specialists involved in the care of their fee-for-service Medicare patients as they did 20 years ago, according to research published in Annals of Internal Medicine this week. On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with one of the coauthors of the study, "Trends in Outpatient Care for Medicare Beneficiaries and Implications for Primary Care, 2000 to 2019," which illustrates the changing trends in a PCP's panel of Medicare patients and how that translates to an increased workload for primary care doctors.

Dr. Emily Rowe graduated from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in 2004. After a brief time in the field of Internal Medicine, she became frustrated with the Western approach to illness. She realized that she was being trained to treat the symptoms of disease and its end-stage complications, while failing to address its root cause.Inspired to find a comprehensive and definitive way to heal her patients, she went back to school and completed her Master's Degree in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture in 2009. Dr. Rowe's practice melds Chinese herbal medicine and therapies (acupuncture, moxibustion, and cupping) with modern Western diagnostic evaluations, nutritional supplementation, dietary and lifestyle modifications. https://www.miamibeachcwc.comListen and subscribe to the Roscoe's Wetsuit Neuro Podcast:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/roscoes-wetsuit-neuro-podcast/id1478352736Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0E8Ui8JNpkjA9LDqbfXnb5Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/roscoes-wetsuitYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoDsVTNVrQztFeRMzIU72_wwww.roscoeswetsuitneuro.com"Disclaimer: This podcast is not intended to provide diagnosis, treatment, or medical advice.

Perhaps you recognize yourself or a loved one in one of the patient profiles. If so, appreciate the feedback and advice and, as he says, ask yourself, "What is your want and desire? What are you willing to do or not do in order to improve your health? The key takeaway from Dr. Batiste? It's OK to be S.E.L.F.I.S.H. in your desire for good health. Ready to feel a little selfish?

Welcome to Difficult Conversations with Dr. Anthony Orsini. Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing for the second time my friend and former colleague. Dr. Karen Knops is a Palliative Care Physician and the creator of programs designed to improve communication in medicine. Her work is deeply influenced by her own experiences as a young patient.  After receiving her medical degree in Internal Medicine and completing her Fellowship in Palliative Care, she went on to create and lead the Division of Palliative and Supportive Care for a six hundred bed community teaching hospital as part of the Atlantic Health System, also creating an onsite training program for physicians from multiple specialties, nurse practitioners, and physician's assistant's. Karen has been recognized as “Top Doctor” in Palliative Medicine in both New Jersey and in the Seattle area where she now lives.  Her models for communication and understanding patient perspective have been published and shared nationally and internationally.  She is a passionate advocate for improving patient experience, and compassion in healthcare. As always, Dr. Orsini keeps his promise about two things, that you will feel inspired, and you will have learned valuable lessons to be a better and more compassionate communicator.One of the biggest problems we have in medicine right now is poor communication between  doctors and patients.  Effective  communication can predict malpractice, prevent medical errors and improve the overall patient experience. Dr, Knops discusses how during her medical training, she realized how hard it was to learn communication skills.  She tells us more about the approach she used to help herself. Dr. Knops later developed a communication framework for patients and providers called A-S-C-E-N-D, and she tells us all about it, what it means, and how it can help you patients and doctors.  Dr. Orsini and Karen discuss the differences between older generations and Millennials with respect to how they communicate. We end with a communication tip and a great story from Dr. Orsini. if you are an attending physician and you're teaching residents,  Dr. Knops leaves us with some great advice about “honoring the role.” If you enjoyed this podcast, please go ahead and hit subscribe on your favorite podcast platform.

Does your diet allow you to go to happy hour?! What about enjoying your kid's birthday party? Or weekend getaways with friends?   Today we are on a search for science and sustainability in popular diet trends.    A lot of the time, food is more than just fuel, it is a way to connect with friends, family, and yourself! It's important to take these things into consideration when establishing your own relationship with food.  In this episode I am covering a framework that you can use to evaluate whatever diet it is that's trending to decide if it's something you actually want to do. I break down keto, intermittent fasting, detox and cleanses, and the vegan diet to see where they all fall on the sustainability spectrum. I also go over what actually happens to the body when we fall into yoyo dieting and how it may be more harmful to our health than carrying a few extra pounds.   Lots of science and fun nutrition facts coming your way!  For more in intermittent fasting be sure to check out this episode!  References: (1) Golden, N.

Platt's mom died of breast cancer. The fact that she died of breast cancer means she had a problem with progesterone, which is the hormone that protects women from breast cancer. She had a lot of fat around her waist, nowhere else. The only thing that puts on fat around the middle is insulin. So, Dr. Platt thought that maybe there was a connection between progesterone and insulin. When Dr. Platt started using progesterone cream, he never got sleepy again while driving. Eventually, Dr. Platt opened a wellness clinic to help people with their hormones. “Adrenaline is probably the number one cause of weight gain.” -Dr. Platt [03:25] What Exactly Adrenaline Is and How It Works In The Body Adrenaline is both a hormone as well as a neurotransmitter. Fibromyalgia is caused by excess adrenaline. When people have fibromyalgia, one of the main things they complain about is fatigue. When someone has a lot of adrenaline, they keep their muscles tense. When you keep muscle tense, you use up a tremendous amount of energy. Part of the fatigue when it comes to your adrenaline is due to just keeping muscle tense. Another reason people get a lot of fatigue with adrenaline is that it prevents them from sleeping. People with too much adrenaline are also low in the thyroid, which can contribute to fatigue. [08:35] What's The Correlation Between People With ADHD and People With High Levels of Adrenaline? What's nice about adrenaline is that it is a neurotransmitter; it gives people intelligence. As a neurotransmitter, it enhances what's called creativity. The most intelligent, successful creative people in the world have a lot of adrenaline. There are literally millions and millions of people that have been diagnosed with ADHD. ADHD is all about adrenaline. The most intelligent, successful creative people in the world have ADHD; it's not bad. Also, ADHD is not a learning disorder; it's an interest disorder. If people are interested and they have ADHD, they'll focus. If they're not interested, they will not focus. [15:00] Will A Keto Lifestyle Help Reduce Adrenaline In The Body? The brain requires two different fuels to function: glucose and ketones. By providing ketones to the brain and glucose, you can get a significant drop in the release of adrenaline within 24 hours. Road rage is caused by adrenaline. You can get rid of road rage in just 24 hours. Ketones will balance out adrenaline. When it comes to adrenaline, Dr. Platt recommends that people eat something before going to sleep. [19:20] Dr. Platt Reveals Some Major Signs That You Have Too Much Adrenaline Adrenaline peaks during the night. People with high adrenaline are quick to anger because adrenaline is an anger hormone. Also, they will have cold hands and cold feet. Adrenaline is a survival hormone. As a survival hormone, it cuts off blood supply to certain areas of the body that are not needed for survival. Also, adrenaline cuts off blood supply to the intestines. People with a lot of adrenaline will almost always have tension to the back of the neck. [28:35] There Are A Few Strategies You Can Use To Lower Adrenaline Levels The best way of tapering down adrenaline is eating correctly. Ketones are a great way to lower adrenaline. Also, glucose from vegetables will be useful as well. Progesterone will block adrenaline. However, if somebody already has insulin resistance and takes progesterone, it will increase the insulin resistance in the brain. [32:00] Not Many Doctors Are Talking About Adrenaline - Dr. Platt Gives His Thoughts Big Pharma controls medicine. They control what doctors learn in medical school and the medical boards that control the FDA. You have an entity that controls medicine that has no interest in people being healthy. Big Pharma doesn't want doctors to know how to get people well. Doctors get no training in hormones. [34:00] Progesterone Cream Can Help With Adrenaline, Here's How To Use It The back of the neck is a great place to put progesterone cream. There's a type of headache called occipital neuritis. This causes excruciating headaches, and it is always mistaken for migraines. This type of headache is only caused by excess adrenaline cranial pressure. Sadly, there's so much that doctors don't realize. You can get rid of ADHD with progesterone cream. Learn more about Dr. Platt's progesterone creams here: https://plattwellness.com/ [38:00] Endogenous Depression Can Go Away When You Lower Adrenaline Levels There's a type of depression called endogenous depression. This is depression comes from within. People will get depressed, but they don't know why they're depressed. The most common cause of endogenous depression is the internalization of anger. Adrenaline is the anger hormone. Lowering anger levels will make the depression go away. [41:45] It's Time To Take Your Health Into Your Own Hands People have to become proactive if they really want to be healthy. You can't depend on the medical system that has no interest in people being healthy. Take control of your own body! It's time to get well and stop relying on traditional medicine to solve your problems.   [44:55] Dr. Platt Has Recommendations For Boosting Your Immune System The whole approach to COVID has to be the immune system. One of the most effective ways of dealing with COVID is a high dose of vitamin D. We can't convert sunlight to vitamin D anymore. Platt recommends vitamin D in powder form. Also, 10,000 units of vitamin D prevents sunburn. Overall, the government should be talking about metabolic health, not pushing a vaccine.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: Check out Dr. Platt's Website: com  https://plattwellness.com/discount/KETO10  use keto10 at checkout Follow Dr. Platt Instagram: com/plattwellness/ Facebook: com/plattwellness/ Twitter: com/PlattWellness YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/meplatt1/featured Get Adrenaline Dominance: A Revolutionary Approach to Wellness: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0977668312/benazadi-2o Read The Miracle of Bi-identical Hormones: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019KQ0JS2/benazadi-20 Email: Questions@PlattWellness.com Join theKeto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a WatchKeto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.
