In this episode, Dr. Doug Lucas and Sarah Glicken delved into the complexities of bone health, emphasizing its crucial role in longevity. Dr. Doug noted that while osteoporosis is often seen as a condition affecting older adults, its roots can be traced back to earlier life stages, making early intervention vital. They shared the limitations of DEXA scans, particularly their inability to assess bone quality, and why they advocate for the use of REMS technology, which offers a more comprehensive evaluation by assessing bone density and microarchitecture. We also touched upon the potential dangers of conventional bone medications, such as bisphosphonates, which can lead to side effects like jaw necrosis and atypical fractures. They emphasized the importance of exploring alternative therapies that focus on lifestyle modifications that include osteogenic loading and supplementation such as vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 (not calcium!) This episode serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals seeking to understand and improve their bone health through informed choices and proactive measures.Dr. Doug Lucas is a double board-certified orthopedic surgeon turned osteoporosis specialist on a mission to show the world that osteoporosis is preventable and reversible. As the VP of Women's Health, Hormone and Lifestyle Optimization at LifeMD and the creator of The OsteoCollective, he empowers individuals to optimize bone health, hormones, and HealthSpan through classic and cutting-edge strategies.Sarah Glicken is the co-founder of Precision Bone Imaging, a company dedicated to shifting the narrative around aging—starting with skeletal health. Using REMS ultrasound technology, PBI provides radiation-free, highly accurate bone scans that help people take proactive steps toward long-term strength and resilience. Sarah also owns multiple OsteoStrong centers in Los Angeles, where members use science-backed osteogenic loading to strengthen bones, joints, and muscles in just minutes a week. With a Master's in Spiritual Psychology and certifications in holistic health, she brings a grounded, heart-centered approach to everything she does.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!2:25 About Dr. Doug Lucas2:50 About Sarah Glicken3:20 Welcome them to the podcast!4:09 How is bone health essential to Longevity6:02 Renee's bone health journey7:40 DEXA Scan vs REMS11:58 The challenges with DEXA13:58 Advantages of REMS19:55 Bisphosphonates & other bone drugs26:10 Nutrition for bone health31:25 What kind of water is the healthiest?32:43 Is calcium bad for bones?34:49 *ALIGN MAT*36:28 Magnesium, Vitamin D & Vitamin K42:36 Science of lifting heavy47:08 How to do Osteogenic Loading49:30 How hormones affect bones59:22 Stress in perimenopause & menopause1:03:03 Sleep, Toxins & Periods1:10:01 Can we reverse bone loss?1:12:10 More Info: Precision Bone Imaging1:12:43 More Info: Dr. Doug Show1:14:03 Dr. Doug's final advice14:53 Sarah's final advice1:15:42 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:precisionboneimaging.comYouTube: The Dr. Doug ShowInstagram: @drdouglucasFacebook: Dr. Doug LucasPodcast: The Dr. Doug ShowWebsite: The OsteoCollectiveInstagram: Sarah Glickenosteostrongla.com My Align Mat - $250 off with code: BIOHACKERBABESPuori - 20% off with code: BIOHACKERBABESEffecty - $50 off with code: BIOHACKERBABESOur Sponsors:* Check out Puori: https://Puori.com/BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

I'm excited to announce the fourth episode of our new series, What's New in Science, co-hosted by Sabine Hossenfelder. Once again, Sabine and I each brought a few recent science stories to the table, and we took turns introducing them before diving into thoughtful discussions. It's a format that continues to spark engaging exchanges, and based on the feedback we've received, it's resonating well with listeners.It was a bit of a slow month for science news, but we did find six stories worth examining, including what sounds like a preposterous claim, turning rain into electricity! It turns out it doesn't violate any laws of physics, but is not likely to address our energy needs. The Hype of the Month award goes to the claim of biosignatures on planet K2-18, which got worldwide coverage, even though experts were pretty certain it was wrong from the get go, and subsequent analysis finds no such evidence. A claim that gravity is just a computation is examined, and dismissed, while evidence for exotic antimatter nuclei at CERN is sound science, even if it is not earth shattering. It reminds us that exotic physics must be considered in exotic locations like the early big bang, or the cores of neutron stars. Sabine was excited about a new result regarding laser fusion, even if it is more likely to be useful for weapons production than commercial energy production, and this time, I was the one to bring up a new result in Quantum Computing, this time using ‘qu-quints' to simulate an actual physics system, although a simple one in two dimensions. It was another lively and thoughtful exchange, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

In this episode, we shift from awareness to action as part of Mouth Breathing Awareness Month. Up to now, we've talked a lot about the “what” — mouth breathing, shrinking faces, chaotic brains — but today, we're diving into the “how.” What can we actually do at home to support our kids' development, even if our healthcare providers aren't quite on board yet? We get super practical with tools, habits, and mindset shifts that make a massive difference in your child's airway health, jaw growth, brain development, and even behavior — and the best part is, you can start today, right in your own kitchen. Key Takeaways: -Chewing is powerful. We're not just talking about eating — we're talking about building strong faces and functional airways. Crunchy, chewy foods like carrots, apples, jerky, and sourdough bread are your new best friends. Even playful tools like myo-munchies or frozen chew toys can be game-changers.-Mouth breathing affects everything. From sleep and posture to emotional regulation and digestion — if your child is mouth breathing, it's time to pay attention. We share easy, fun exercises to promote nose breathing and tongue posture (think cotton ball games and “lips-zipped” challenges).-The tongue is a hidden superhero. Where it rests changes how the jaw and face grow. We talk tongue position, fun tricks to build strength, and how to tell if there might be a bigger issue at play.- Nutrition matters. Your child's jaw and airway need building blocks: vitamins D, K2, magnesium, and zinc. We talk simple swaps and nutrient-rich foods even picky eaters can manage.- This isn't just about kids — it's generational. These habits (and dysfunctions) are often passed down. That means we, as parents, have the power to heal both backward and forward. How cool is that?- Brush, floss, and... chew. Oral hygiene matters, but it's just one piece of the puzzle. The bigger picture? How we chew, how we breathe, and how we live. "Your child isn't broken. You're not too late. And it all starts with small steps — one crunchy carrot, one deeper breath, one mindful moment at a time." We hope this episode inspires you to take action, trust your gut, and see your child (and yourself) through a whole new lens. Let's grow strong, together. Book a consultation today:I am always here to help answer any question and schedule a 15 minute call with me. If I can not help, I can get you to a provider that can.https://shereewertz.com/15-min

They also touch on the ethics of health influencers and the credibility of health products in the market. Episode Highlights: Why AI is likely to replace certain medical specialties. Why misinformation in women's health is a significant concern. How health trends often lack scientific backing. Continuous glucose monitor trend How online claims about health products often outpace actual results. Why it's essential to critically evaluate health studies and their methodologies. Reasons consumers should be informed and skeptical of health claims. Why fear-based marketing is prevalent in health products. Not all health influencers are credible; many promote products for profit. Why if a health claim sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Just like Rogue One, this show uses every available moment to tell the best story we've seen in Star Wars, probably since the originals. Syril faces his choices, the birth of K2, Mon Mothma leading the resistance, and Andor getting in trouble for saving people. We are held at finger point to witness the massacres, the growing pains, and the betrayals that give us the Empire and Rebel Alliance of the original movies. This show takes the darkest days of the Empire, when they think they have the most control and shows just how little power they truly have to stop the uprising. Rebellions are built on hope.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-15-2025: Dr. Dawn provides a comprehensive overview of bone health, describing bones as the "silent architects" of our bodies that require ongoing care and attention throughout life. She outlines key risk factors including family history of fractures, eating disorders, hormonal changes, digestive surgeries, and medication use, while explaining how DEXA scans measure bone density through T-scores and Z-scores, recommending the FRAX risk calculator as a superior predictive tool. She shares practical strategies like weight-bearing exercise and proper vitamin supplementation (D, K2, calcium) alongside explaining the roles of osteoclasts and osteoblasts in bone turnover and how medications influence this balance. She addresses a caller's question about strontium citrate and isoflavone supplements for bone health after cancer treatment, clarifying that these differ from problematic boron and suggesting C-telopeptide or N-telopeptide testing to verify bone turnover rates beyond DEXA results. The program discusses a promising non-hormonal male contraceptive called ADAM, a dissolvable hydrogel implant shown in preliminary trials to block sperm for up to two years without serious side effects. Dr. Dawn addresses misconceptions about autism, describing it as a spectrum with diverse manifestations, explaining its neurological basis in atypical brain pruning patterns, and emphasizing it as a complex genetic vulnerability to environmental events. She evaluates a listener email about a supplement for urinary incontinence and metabolic health, warning listeners about marketing tactics and insufficient evidence behind many commercial products. Dr. Dawn examines "Fatty 15," a pentadecanoic acid supplement marketed for metabolic health, noting that while some rodent studies show promise for insulin sensitivity and liver health, human evidence remains limited compared to well-established benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. Dr. Dawn shares news about Orforglipron, a new oral GLP-1 medication in pill form for diabetes and weight management that appears as effective as injectable versions like Ozempic.. The show concludes with information about innovative plant-based transparent paperboard, a cellulose-based material that biodegrades within 300 days while offering a safer and more sustainable alternative to conventional plastics.

Not sure we ever thought we'd connect 'Xena: Warrior Princess' and Mental Health Awareness Month in a single episode, but there is a first time for everything. Join CH as she takes a trip in the wayback machine to reflect on a life mantra she came across back in 1998 from actor Renee O'Connor during Renee's attempt to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro. In a story told to author Jane Treat, Renee's mantra, "Take a step and breathe," helped her push through the grueling physical and mental challenge of completing the trek even when her mother was forced to turn back. CH was inspired by the saying back then - so much so that she printed it out to have at her desk. Cut to today, it's a timeless and relatable mantra that can serve as a beacon of hope and a tool for self-care as we continue to focus on the importance of maintaining a healthy mental wellbeing.   Show Notes The original article where CH first learned of the mantra, "Take a step and breathe," was authored by Jane Treat back in 1998 and titled "Renee O'Connor - To The Roof of Africa | ROC's Trek Up Mt. Kilimanjaro." It is archived on the very longstanding ReneeOConnor.info site that still operates today as part of the AUSXIP Network. For those looking for more information on Mt. Kilimanjaro, head over to the Wikipedia entry. CH also does mention the mountain, K2, as an example of a mountain that requires technical climbing expertise in order to summit.

In this episode, Dr. Shawn Tassone discusses the nomination of Casey Means as Surgeon General, exploring her background, credentials, and the implications of her appointment. He critiques the healthcare system, the role of functional medicine, and the influence of nutrition on health. Dr. Tassone emphasizes the importance of questioning the narratives presented by health influencers and the potential impact of the Surgeon General's role on public health policy. Episode Highlights The nomination of Casey Means Questions about her qualification Casey Means educational background Thoughts on her residency Why disillusionment in medicine is common, but quitting is controversial Why functional medicine practices are critiqued as potentially exploitative Reasons continuous glucose monitoring is viewed as a money-making scheme Evaluating Casey Means' statements which may lack evidence How the Surgeon General's role is often more symbolic than powerful Episode Resources: Dr. Shawn Tassone's Practice | https://www.drshawntassone.com Dr. Shawn Tassone's Book | The Hormone Balance Bible Dr. Shawn Tassone's Integrative Hormonal Mapping System | Hormone Archetype Quiz Thank you to our sponsor, Purality Health! The question isn't which supplements to take—it's whether your body can absorb them. Most traditional supplements fall victim to stomach acid before delivering benefits. Purality Health's micelle liposomal technology creates a double-layer protective system that shields nutrients from stomach acid destruction while facilitating direct bloodstream absorption—making supplements up to 800% more effective. For perimenopausal and menopausal patients, I recommend their Vitamin D3 with K2 for bone density and mood regulation, and their exceptional magnesium formula for sleep and muscle tension.

Scientists have been seriously debating whether K2-18b, a planet 124 light-years away in the Leo constellation, could be an ocean world that hosts tiny life forms. Using the James Webb Space Telescope, a British-US team found two chemicals in its atmosphere — dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide — that, here on Earth, are only made by living things like microscopic phytoplankton. They're being super careful though, saying we need a lot more data before shouting “alien life!” from the rooftops. Still, it's a massive deal, because K2-18b is in the habitable zone — not too hot, not too cold, just right for liquid water. It's more than eight times heavier and 2.5 times bigger than Earth, making it a rare, exciting find.

Plaque and tartar are biofilms, which can be described as a protective shield against the immune system in your mouth. Biofilms are produced by a microbe called Streptococcus mutans, which also causes cavities. Surprisingly, this microbe has been found in other parts of the body, including the valves of the heart and the plaque in your arteries. Sugar consumption is one of the leading causes of tartar, but consuming sugar with starch is even worse! This can form a glue that sticks to your teeth. You must stop eating starch and sugar to prevent plaque and tartar from forming. To make a natural toothpaste that can effectively remove plaque, combine the following:•1/2 teaspoon 3% hydrogen peroxide, food-grade•1/2 teaspoon baking soda•3 drops of clove oil •1/2 teaspoon microcrystalline hydroxyapatite Combine 3 teaspoons of water with this mixture and brush your teeth with the mixture once daily. Hydrogen peroxide helps break down biofilms and whiten teeth. Baking soda has mild abrasive properties to clean teeth and alkalize the mouth. Clove oil is the best essential oil for oral health. It breaks down tartar and can even help decrease oral pain. Microcrystalline hydroxyapatite can enter the small crevices of the teeth and remineralize the bone tissue. It also prevents acid from breaking down the tooth. You can also chew certain types of gum that can help repopulate the friendly bacteria in the mouth and protect you against the formation of biofilms. Friendly bacteria in your mouth can help prevent tartar, bad breath, and cavities. Grass-fed butter is one of the healthiest foods for teeth. It's a potent source of vitamin K2, which pushes the calcium in your body into your bones. Butter also contains vitamin A, which strengthens your enamel, and butyrate, which supports the brain and colon.

Recently, a group of scientists claimed they found possible signs of life on a planet called K2-18b. The news made headlines. Researchers said they'd detected sulphur-based gases that, on Earth, are strongly associated with life. But the research caused an uproar in astronomy circles because other scientists don't think the data is strong enough to celebrate an alien find just yet. In fact, they have some real issues with how this whole thing went down, and a new analysis casts further doubt on the findings. NPR science correspondent Nell Greenfieldboyce is here to wade into the controversy — and tell us what all this means for the future of searching for life beyond our solar system.

Située à environ 120 années-lumière de la Terre, dans la constellation du Lion, cette planète intrigue par ses caractéristiques physico-chimiques uniques. Classée comme une planète « hycéenne », elle posséderait un océan liquide sous une atmosphère riche en hydrogène, un environnement inédit mais potentiellement habitable.Le 17 avril 2025, l'excitation autour de K2-18b a franchi un nouveau cap. Une équipe de chercheurs de l'université de Cambridge, grâce au télescope spatial James Webb, a annoncé avoir détecté les "indices les plus prometteurs à ce jour" d'une potentielle activité biologique sur cette exoplanète. Deux composés chimiques ont particulièrement attiré l'attention des scientifiques : le sulfure de diméthyle (DMS) et le disulfure de diméthyle (DMDS). Sur Terre, ces molécules sont produites presque exclusivement par le phytoplancton marin, et n'existent pas en grande quantité dans la nature sans activité biologique.Cette détection s'ajoute à d'autres observations précédentes tout aussi fascinantes : de la vapeur d'eau, du méthane et du dioxyde de carbone avaient déjà été repérés dans l'atmosphère de K2-18b en 2019 et 2023. La combinaison de ces gaz, particulièrement dans un environnement tempéré, suggère des réactions chimiques compatibles avec la vie, bien que des origines non-biologiques soient également possibles.Il convient néanmoins de rester prudent. Les résultats actuels ont une signification statistique de 3 sigmas, soit une probabilité de 99,7 % que ces détections ne soient pas dues au hasard. Or, pour qu'une découverte soit considérée comme scientifiquement confirmée, le seuil de confiance usuel est de 5 sigmas (99,99994 %). Les chercheurs estiment qu'entre 16 et 24 heures d'observation supplémentaires seront nécessaires pour atteindre cette rigueur.K2-18b, dont la masse est huit fois supérieure à celle de la Terre, n'est pas une planète rocheuse, mais pourrait abriter des formes de vie adaptées à un environnement riche en gaz et en liquide sous haute pression. C'est une nouvelle frontière dans la recherche de vie, différente des mondes terrestres classiques.En somme, K2-18b représente l'un des candidats les plus sérieux à ce jour pour l'identification de vie extraterrestre. Les indices détectés ne constituent pas encore une preuve, mais ils témoignent des progrès spectaculaires de l'astronomie moderne et ouvrent une ère passionnante dans l'exploration des mondes lointains.

En la sección de esta semana os hablamos de un tema que seguro que se repetirá muchas veces en los próximos años: la detección de un gas que podría ser biológico en un planeta alrededor de una estrella lejana. En este caso la estrella se llama K2-18 y está a 125 años luz de nosotros; el planeta es K2-18b, un planeta dos veces mayor que la Tierra en cuya atmósfera se ha detectado una pequeña molécula, el dimetilsulfuro. Esta molécula, en la Tierra, está asociada a diversos microorganismos, y muy en particular al fitoplacton de los océanos; en nuestro planeta, los únicos que producen dimetilsulfuro son los seres vivos. Además, esta molécula es bastante inestable químicamente: reacciona rápidamente con otras sustancias y rápidamente deja de existir. Su presencia en K2-18b revela, pues, que algo la está produciendo continuamente. ¿Es ese "algo" microorganismos que viven en ese planeta? La respuesta más honesta, por ahora, ha de ser un "no estamos seguros". Si queréis aprender más sobre cómo buscar vida en planetas alrededor de otras estrellas os recomiendo que repaséis el capítulo s06e01, en el que hablamos en detalle de cómo se descubren estos gases en las atmósferas de planetas tan lejanos. También podéis aprender más sobre los propios exoplanetas y cómo se descubren en los capítulos s01e33, s01e10, s06e00, s06e29 y s07e14. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 21 de abril de 2025.

The prospects that life might exist elsewhere in the universe made headlines last week when it was announced that observations of the exoplanet K2-18b by the James Webb space telescope had revealed the chemical fingerprints of two compounds that, on Earth, are only known to be produced by life. The idea of panspermia, where seeds of life from other worlds may have hitched a ride on asteroids like Bennu and crashed into Earth, may be the key to how we were created, or that perhaps we are the alien life we are looking for.

Hey Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Dr. Jonas Kuehne, regenerative health expert and founder of the Rejuvagen clinic. And in this episode, we're diving deep into a cutting-edge topic—umbilical stem cells, and how they could change the way we fight disease, reduce inflammation, support the brain, and even reverse aging. Dr. Jonas breaks down exactly how stem cells work in the body, the difference between newborn and autologous cells, why the FDA restricts expansion in the U.S., and what to watch out for if you're considering therapy abroad.  PLUS, get into Jonas' daily anti-aging routine: from avoiding seed oils and eating clean, to fasting, early workouts, and why he's big on vitamin K2 with D3. This episode is filled with simple shifts that can make a big impact on your energy, skin, digestion, and long-term health. Listen to Part 1 HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Umbilical stem cells are powerful builders: They are not just replacements. They help repair damage, recruit your body's healing resources, and may even support neurological repair and immune balance. Your body needs breaks to heal. Strategic fasting, whole foods, and clean protein help support detox, reduce inflammation, and activate longevity pathways like autophagy. The anti-aging secret? Keep it clean. Cutting seed oils, artificial sweeteners, and hormone-disrupting ingredients is one of the most powerful ways to protect your energy, skin, and hormonal balance. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EPISODE RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.jonas.kuehne/  Website: http://www.jonasmd.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@JonasKuehneMD  Cryo Healthcare: https://www.cryohealthcare.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaeeU6H7MNMsAm5HIjcNleJrRLnokvOYUGLe9LXN-ayts3HPaHLVb2cqVaPKHw_aem_bbgV2vuCpxgV6l6T1w9ceQ  Face Lifter: https://www.facelifter.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAae34sptRGBD2YTWovchpdiWvvIP1fPapkn42gz2ao_J-JSq-yg1w_HSLaedYQ_aem_Y17-S3O73cBe3WMV-5yDRw ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

An Astrophysicist Explains the "Strongest Evidence Yet" of Alien Life

Last week, a team of astrophysicists from the University of Cambridge announced that they had discovered the “strongest indication” ever of extraterrestrial life. The source did not come from Mars or Venus or any nearby moon. It came from K2-18b, a massive planet some 120 light-years from Earth. If this finding checks out, it is, without question, one of the most important discoveries in the history of science. But many scientists think that ... well, it might not check out at all. Today's guest is Sara Seager, a celebrated astrophysicist at MIT. Seager is a pioneer in the study of exoplanets and their atmospheres. She has done as much as practically anybody to develop the science of interpreting light from faraway stars to make inferences about planets. In today's show, Seager and I slowly worked our way up to last week's announcement by building a foundation of the basic science at play. What are exoplanets? How do we know that they're there? How do we have any idea about the chemicals present on that planet if we can't send probes to test their air? What does the K2-18b finding really tell us? And what larger philosophical questions about life and aliens are raised by this new science of exoplanet atmospheres?

The Webb Space Telescope picked up traces of dimethyl sulfide on planet K2-18b. On Earth, the molecule comes from microbes and phytoplankton. Also, researchers captured the first confirmed video of a colossal squid swimming in its natural habitat—almost 2,000 feet deep.Possible Signature Of Life Detected On Exoplanet—MaybeIn major galactic news, scientists may have detected possible signs of life on a planet right here in our galaxy. Is this one of the best hints we've gotten that alien life exists? Host Flora Lichtman gets into it with Anil Oza, the Sharon Begley Science Reporting Fellow at STAT and MIT. They discuss the latest in alien life, the Trump's administration cuts to the “indirect costs” of science funding, the largest map of a brain yet, and how salmon on anti-anxiety meds make bolder choices.A Colossal Squid Video? That's A Big DealThis week, scientists announced that they had captured the first confirmed video of a colossal squid in its natural habitat, recorded some 1,968 feet (600 m) below the ocean surface near the South Sandwich Islands. While there have been sightings of the colossal squid before, they have mainly been of individuals entangled with fishing equipment—and much of what is known about the elusive creatures comes from dead specimens.The video was captured by scientists on board the R/V Falkor (too) during an Ocean Census expedition searching for new marine life. As the remotely operated vehicle SuBastian descended towards the ocean floor, its cameras caught sight of a juvenile squid roughly one foot long (30 cm), and captured over a minute of high resolution video. The footage was later analyzed by experts and determined to be a colossal squid.Colossal squid are estimated to grow up to 23 feet (7 m) in length and can weigh as much as 1,100 pounds (500 kg), making them the heaviest invertebrate on the planet. They are not the same as the giant squid, an entirely different species, which can grow to be longer but are lighter and slimmer.Dr. Kat Bolstad, one of the squid experts the researchers sent their videos to for identification, joins Host Flora Lichtman to talk about the sighting.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
