“Have you Seen Romit? is a gripping, intensely moving portrayal of a woman whose ferocious love for her children ends up clashing with how others expect her to behave. I loved spending time with the rule-breaking Usha and with the complicated world Chital Mehta has conjured. Vivid, fresh, and resonant.”—R. O. Kwon, author of Exhibit and The Incendiaries With a review like that, it’s clear that you must pick up a copy of Have You Seen Romit? by Chital Mehta. For this episode, Chital sat down to discuss her inspiring writing and publishing journey: from the first seed of an idea to the fully realized book. It was absolutely riveting to hear her candid and refreshing reflections on the process of bringing this book to life. We also talked about her unforgettable protagonist, Usha, and the extraordinary challenges she faces in her desperate search for her son. This novel is a stunner and I couldn’t put it down. Chital, I cannot thank you enough for joining me, I cannot wait to see what you create next! Chital recommends: Names Have Been Changed by Yu-Mei Balasingamchow; Scavengers by Kathleen Boland. Chital has been influenced by the works of Jhumpa Lahiri; Jai Chakraborti, Colum McCann; Steve Almond. R.O. Kwon is the author who selected Chital as the winner of the 2025 James Alan McPherson Prize.  

Dominik hat sein EGYM-BioAge ermittelt – doch was sagt diese Zahl über seine Gesundheit aus? Wir erklären, was hinter dem biologischen Alter steckt und wie Studiogeräte, Wearables und epigenetische Tests zu ihren Ergebnissen kommen. Wie zuverlässig sind diese Werte? Können Training und Ernährung unsere biologische Uhr beeinflussen? Und wann motiviert ein Alterswert zu gesunden Gewohnheiten, wann führt er in die Irre? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dominiks Buch zur pflanzenbasierten Sporternährung im UTB-Verlag: https://www.utb.de/doi/book/10.36198/9783838560328 Dominiks Gesundheitscommunity: www.gsundes-hannover.de Dominiks Online-Knie-Kurs: https://gsundes-hannover.de/knieschmerzen/ Dominiks Online-Rücken-Kurs: https://copecart.com/products/34bd5abb/checkout Marcs veganes Online-Fitness-Coaching: https://vegainer-academy.com/ Marcs Online-Kurs: https://www.copecart.com/products/a50f88f2/checkout ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Werbung: Dieser Podcast wird unterstützt von der Firma Watson Nutrition.

MMA Lock of the Night is back to give you breakdowns and predictions for Contender Series 2026: Week 5.

Hay pacientes con daño cerebral que tienen fuerza, movilidad o equilibrio suficientes para hacer mucho más de lo que finalmente consiguen en su vida diaria. Y otros, aparentemente más afectados, terminan siendo mucho más independientes. ¿Qué explica esa discrepancia? En este episodio utilizamos el concepto pedagógico de "fenotipo premotor" para explorar todo lo que ocurre entre disponer de movimiento y conseguir convertirlo en una acción: selección, preparación, secuenciación, predicción, aprendizaje, automatización y transferencia. Hablamos de corteza premotora, complejo motor suplementario, sinergias, aprendizaje explícito e implícito, retención, generalización y de por qué a veces "da un paso largo” funciona mejor que “extiende la rodilla”. También revisamos estrategias clínicas y tecnologías que podrían ayudarnos cuando el verdadero problema no está simplemente en la fuerza o el tono. Porque en neurorrehabilitación no basta con conseguir más movimiento: necesitamos conseguir que ese movimiento se convierta en una acción útil, estable, transferible y autónoma.

Dark Side of Seoul Podcast Episode 316 The Weird Science Behind Korean Food Nationalism   Episode Description A 2023 paper published in the Journal of Ethnic Foods argues that Korean cuisine developed in isolation, authentic Korean food isn't spicy, and even that royal court cuisine isn't truly Korean. In this episode, we examine the paper's historical, linguistic, archaeological, and scientific claims to see where the evidence supports the authors and where nationalism appears to outweigh scholarship. Topics Discussed Why Korean food doesn't need exaggerated origin stories The concept of food nationalism The "Hermit Kingdom" myth Did Korean cuisine really develop in isolation? Is banchan unique to Korea? Claims that Korean food has no sugar or oil Korean language and the outdated Ural-Altaic theory Ancient DNA and whether genetics can explain cuisine The debate over chili peppers and Korean food history Why the paper argues royal court cuisine isn't Korean How academic papers should distinguish evidence from advocacy Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 03:12 Why this paper caught our attention 08:45 "Correcting" Korean food history 15:20 Korea as an isolated civilization 22:08 Is banchan unique? 28:41 The claims about sugar, oil, and Korean cooking 35:15 Pottery, archaeology, and food history 42:10 Genetics, language, and extraordinary conclusions 49:55 The chili pepper controversy 56:30 Royal court cuisine and cultural identity 1:02:45 Final thoughts Mentioned During the Episode Science and Philosophy of Korea Traditional Foods (K-food) (Journal of Ethnic Foods, 2023) Traditional Korean cuisine Kimchi Banchan Joseon royal cuisine Korean food history The Columbian Exchange Ural-Altaic language theory Listen & Follow Website: https://darksideofseoul.com Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dark-side-of-seoul-podcast/id1504623984 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1lZBXNX79kwH2NXcJWNcb8 Patreon: https://patreon.com/darksideofseoul YouTube: https://youtube.com/@darksideofseoul Instagram: https://instagram.com/darksideofseoul Facebook: https://facebook.com/darksideofseoul Contact: info@darksideofseoul.com About The Dark Side of Seoul The Dark Side of Seoul explores Korea's darker history, folklore, true crime, urban legends, supernatural traditions, forgotten places, and the cultural stories that don't usually appear in guidebooks.

Daily &  Sunmin Park    https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s42779-023-00194-3 Introduction Why This Paper Matters On the surface, this looks like an ordinary academic paper. It was published in 2023 in the Journal of Ethnic Foods, an open-access journal published by BioMed Central. It has multiple authors, references dozens of sources, and presents itself as a scientific examination of Korean food history and philosophy. But once you start reading it closely, something becomes obvious. The paper repeatedly makes sweeping historical, linguistic, archaeological, genetic, and anthropological claims that either go well beyond the available evidence or directly contradict mainstream scholarship. Rather than weighing competing explanations, it almost always arrives at the same conclusion: Korean food is uniquely independent, uniquely original, and fundamentally separate from neighboring cultures. That is what makes this paper interesting. Not because it's simply "wrong." Plenty of academic papers contain mistakes. It's interesting because it reflects a broader pattern that occasionally appears in Korean public discourse, media, and even academia: the desire to demonstrate Korean exceptionalism through scientific language. The Bigger Pattern Much of the paper revolves around proving things don't merely exist in Korea. They must be: older than everyone else's more original than everyone else's scientifically superior impossible to have borrowed from neighboring cultures It's the same pattern behind claims that: Korean is uniquely logical. Korean relationships are deeper because of speech levels. Metal chopsticks create better surgeons. Koreans excel at archery because of chopsticks. Kimchi predates chili peppers. Everything distinctive must have originated in Korea. Some of these are harmless internet folklore. Others find their way into books, museums, newspapers, documentaries, and occasionally academic publications. Why This Happens None of this appeared in a vacuum. Modern Korea emerged from colonization, war, dictatorship, and decades of being culturally overshadowed by larger neighbors. Building a strong national identity was an understandable project. The problem comes when pride begins driving the research instead of the research informing the pride. Good scholarship starts with evidence and follows wherever it leads. Nationalistic scholarship often starts with the conclusion and works backwards. That doesn't make every conclusion false. It does make readers ask a very different question: "Is this trying to discover the truth?" Or "Is this trying to prove something?" This paper often feels like the latter. 1. The Authors Set Themselves Up as the Correctors of History Page 1 "Nevertheless, until now, the history of food on the Korean Peninsula has been mainly studied by history scholars who can read Chinese characters rather than by natural scientists, resulting in errors and distortions in our understanding of the identity, history, and originality of Korean food. In this paper, we aim to correct these errors and distortions and to present scientifically validated research... Furthermore, we also aim to provide scientific truths..." Problems The paper begins by declaring that historians have distorted Korean food history while positioning the authors as the ones who possess the "scientific truths." Throughout the paper they continue using historical texts whenever those texts support their conclusions while dismissing them when they do not. It's an unusual way to frame an academic paper. Most research begins with questions, not with a declaration that previous scholarship is fundamentally wrong. 2. Korea Developed in Isolation Page 2 "The early Korean population developed their characteristic foods in relative isolation from other regions of Asia due to the oceans and rugged mountains surrounding the country. Therefore, we must be very careful when discussing the culture and history of Korean food through Chinese books... Korea has historically been geographically isolated... it was also so historically resistant to outside influences and interactions that it was commonly called the 'Hermit Kingdom.'" Problems This compresses thousands of years of Korean history into an isolation narrative. Korea maintained continuous contact with China, Japan, Jurchens, Mongols, and others through diplomacy, trade, religion, migration, and warfare. "Hermit Kingdom" describes a particular period of late Joseon diplomacy, not Korea's entire historical development. 3. Banchan Exists Nowhere Else Page 2 "Another distinctive feature of Korean cuisine is the unique presentation of bap and banchan... We call this banchan culture, and it is a food culture that does not exist in any other country in the world." Problems Korea's version is distinctive. The concept of eating a staple grain with multiple shared side dishes exists throughout East and Southeast Asia. The paper turns a distinctive tradition into an absolute claim. 4. Korea Had No Sugar or Oil Pages 2-3 "Not only do we have a different ethnic root than China, but we also do not have oil or sugar as elements to make food delicious agriculturally." ... "In an environment where livestock and dairy products did not exist, where sugar to provide a sweet taste was unavailable, and where there was no oil to enhance the flavor..." Problems Traditional Korean cooking uses sesame oil, perilla oil, honey, rice syrup (조청), and malt syrup. Traditional desserts like yakgwa depend on both oil and sweeteners. The paper repeatedly describes Korea as lacking ingredients that are well documented in Korean culinary history. 5. Tasteless Vegetables Are the Soul of Korean Food Page 3 "As with all vegetables and herbs, they have less flavor when they do not contain salt, fat, or protein. The essence of Korean cuisine lies in the spirit and wisdom of Korean ancestors on how to eat these tasteless vegetables deliciously, which can be said to be the soul of Korean food." Problems This is philosophy rather than food science. It's a perfectly reasonable cultural reflection. It should not be presented as scientific evidence. 6. Pottery Alone Proves Independent Food Culture Page 4 "The earthenware vessels found in Korea during the ancient times were... mostly different from that of China. From this alone, we can tell that the food culture of ancient times in Korea was independently formed from that of China." Problems "From this alone" is an enormous leap. Archaeologists do not infer entire culinary traditions from pottery styles alone. Different pottery demonstrates different pottery. 7. Korean and Chinese Are Completely Different Peoples Pages 4-5 "The Korean and Chinese peoples are ethnologically different nations." ... "Korea has continued to develop independently thereby developing and preserving its own culture and history without being culturally absorbed by the country of China." Problems Korean civilization certainly developed its own identity. But history also documents centuries of exchange in religion, administration, philosophy, literature, technology and cuisine. The paper repeatedly frames influence as something that either happened completely or not at all. 8. Korean Is Related to Hungarian and Finnish Page 5 "Korean is classified as Ural-Altaic (Trans-Eurasian), which is completely different from the Chinese language system (India-Europe). Korean belongs to the same linguistic family as Manchurian, Mongolian, Japanese, Hungarian, and Finnish." Problems Chinese is not Indo-European. The Ural-Altaic hypothesis has largely been abandoned by historical linguists. This entire linguistic discussion has little bearing on culinary history. 9. Ancient DNA Proves Korean Food Didn't Come from China Pages 5-6 "The rapid decline in male genetic diversity... suggests that during the war, the invaders slaughtered men and humiliated women." ... "Therefore, it is a false claim that Korean food came from either China or Japan through men's communication. Wars have not advanced the development of food. Had mothers' languages not changed after the war, their food would not have changed either." Problems This is probably the biggest logical leap in the paper. Population genetics cannot determine where recipes originated. The authors move directly from Bronze Age Y-chromosome bottlenecks to twentieth-century arguments about Korean cuisine. 10. Korea Had No Livestock, Dairy, Sugar or Oil Page 6 "In an environment where livestock and dairy products did not exist... where sugar... was unavailable... and where there was no oil to enhance the flavor..." Problems This repeats and expands an earlier claim. Historically Korea had livestock. It had oils. It had traditional sweeteners. The statement is presented far more absolutely than the historical record supports. 11. Korean Food Is Never Spicy Page 16 "Foreigners who do not understand this come to believe that Korean food is very spicy. In reality, authentic Korean food is never hot because chili pepper varieties cultivated in Korea are not hot." Problems Korean peppers are generally milder than many Southeast Asian varieties. That does not make Korean food "never hot." This swings from one extreme myth to the opposite extreme. 12. Royal Court Cuisine Isn't Korean Page 16 "Royal court cuisine and jongka cuisine are not Korean food; they are based on Chinese food." Problems One of the paper's most extraordinary conclusions. Royal cuisine developed inside Korean courts, by Korean cooks, over centuries. Cultural influence does not erase cultural identity. 13. The Paper Contradicts Itself About Foreign Influence Pages 16-17 The paper argues wars and foreign influence did not shape Korean food. Then later it writes: "Inexpensive wheat flour from the USA replaced the more expensive rice with flour, which has greatly contributed to the development of pajeon, tteokbokki, and kuksu." Problems This is exactly the kind of foreign influence the paper spends earlier chapters minimizing. It acknowledges that American food aid transformed important Korean dishes after the Korean War. Structural Problems Heavy self-citation Many of the paper's key citations are previous publications by the lead author. The article often cites earlier books and papers by Kwon to support Kwon's current arguments. Personal communications as evidence One of the key claims about ancient Korean chili peppers relies on an unpublished personal communication rather than peer-reviewed evidence. Conclusions precede the evidence Throughout the paper, the conclusion remains remarkably consistent: Korean food is uniquely independent. Korean food is uniquely original. Korean food is uniquely healthy. Korean food is fundamentally separate from neighboring cuisines. The evidence is then selected and interpreted to support those conclusions. Closing Korean cuisine is extraordinary. It doesn't need exaggerated origin stories. It doesn't become less Korean because chili peppers came from the Americas. It doesn't become less Korean because Buddhism came through China. It doesn't become less Korean because dumplings arrived with the Mongols. Every great cuisine is built through centuries of borrowing, adapting, refining, and making ideas its own. Ironically, that's exactly what makes Korean food so interesting. The strongest case for Korean cuisine isn't that it developed in complete isolation. It's that Korea took influences from around the world and transformed them into something unmistakably Korean. That story is both more believable and far more impressive.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I recently got a certificate in functional nutrition and I have thoughts. Starting with the fact that staying hydrated and fueling your body with nutrients will be—not can be, will be—a game-changer for your vestibular disorder. In this episode, I’m breaking down something that comes up over and over again in Vestibular Group Fit: how much what you eat (and drink!) actually matters when you have a vestibular disorder. This isn’t about going on a perfect diet or never eating processed foods again. It’s about understanding how blood sugar regulation, hydration, inflammation, gut health, and hormones are all connected to your dizziness. And what small, manageable steps you can take to start feeling better. In this episode, we'll dig into: Why diet & hydration are foundational basics for managing a vestibular disorder How blood sugar crashes — including overnight ones — can trigger dizziness & attacks Why skipping meals is practically a guaranteed migraine trigger The role of key nutrients like iron, vitamin D & B vitamins in managing chronic dizziness How inflammation connects to vestibular disorders — and how food either fuels or fights it Perimenopause & menopause: how hormonal changes affect metabolism, muscle mass, insulin sensitivity & dizziness Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (plastics, pesticides, PFAs) & how low-tox swaps can make a real difference Why your gut microbiome might be the reason your medications aren’t working Practical, accessible ways to start improving your nutrition without overhauling everything at once You don’t have to eat perfectly! You just have to start somewhere because the better your nutrition and hydration are, the better you will feel.

The follow-up to the Bad Swing Advice Hall of Fame is finally here. After the first podcast, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb were flooded the comments with one reques... do the BEST swing advice version. So Shaun and Mike sat down and inducted the cues they use to fix more amateur swings than anything else.The first inductee alone fixes 999 out of 1000 golfers. The trail arm has to lift and stay wide in the backswing. Almost every amateur lowers it. Almost every tour player lifts it. It's the single most common move that separates the buckets.They also induct Scott Hamilton's "on plane early" cue, the recentering concept that AMG named years ago, the Lazy Susan downswing, the "no hip turn in the backswing" foundation (with a nod to Dr. Kwon's "turn shoulders, tilt hips"), and the driver tip that finally lines up the clubface without forcing shaft lean.These are the cues AMG uses to coach players off the hamster wheel and into real ball striking improvement.

This Week your hosts JGold & Charly Butters discuss Jgolds FLag Football debacle, Aiw Talk, Vloging, New Merch then we sit down with Ikuro Kwon to talk Long Island, MLW, Arena Mexico, Taking Mistico's Mask, never being star struck by a wrestler, Etu and the Atlantic Tag team titles, and so so so much more!  

As the new chief of Infectious Diseases at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Jennie Kwon, DO, is working in a rapidly evolving field rich with opportunities for discovery and impact. Her own research focus is one of the most pressing challenges in medicine today: antimicrobial resistance.  In this episode, she discusses the growing global threat of antimicrobial resistance and why this crisis could fundamentally disrupt modern medicine. 

Say You'll Be Mine - Mamas Gun (feat. Kwon Jin-ah)

ARREAZA: Today we will expand on other treatments for insomnia in adults. MOIRA: Yes, we spent some time explaining the assessment of insomnia and the first-line treatment, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). We also mentioned sleep hygiene. You can listen to episode 220 if you want to learn more about that. Medication should be considered a secondary option. The American College of Physicians (ACP) recommends that clinicians use a shared decision-making approach, including a discussion of the benefits, harms, and costs of short-term use of medications, to decide whether to add medication in adults with chronic insomnia disorder in whom CBT-I alone was unsuccessful.  In general, pharmacotherapy is associated with risks of dependence, tolerance, and poorer quality sleep, whereas evidence-based psychotherapies, like CBT-I, result in better long-term outcomes, no drug dependence or polypharmacy risk, and potential cost savings. ARREAZA: Yes, we will start this episode by talking about medications. If you practice primary care, I'm 100% sure that a patient has asked you for “sleeping pills” in clinic. Moira, I know our listeners want to hear about meds. What can you tell about meds to treat insomnia? Moira:We can really split pharmacotherapy for sleep into two categories, OTC, and prescription. And many folks reach for OTC sleep aids before talking to a clinician. When we say OTC sleep aids, we're mostly talking about sedating antihistamines, like diphenhydramine and doxylamine, which are common in products marketed for occasional sleep difficulties. Melatonin is often marketed as a supplement rather than a drug, but it's also widely used OTC in many places, though regulations and quality vary by country. ARREAZA: Exactly. Several studies describe widespread use of these agents among adults and especially older adults, who may face sleep problems related to comorbidities and polypharmacy. Many older adults use OTC sleep aids, often without consulting a healthcare professional or reading labels carefully. Moira: And there's evidence that a substantial share of OTC sleep products contains diphenhydramine or doxylamine—first-gen antihistamines that carry anticholinergic burden, which is particularly relevant for older adults. Melatonin's story is similarly mixed for efficacy. It can modestly affect sleep onset and duration in some populations, especially older adults or circadian rhythm–related sleep problems, but the overall clinical impact is small. What about on the prescription side? DR. ARREAZA: “Z-drugs” are nonbenzodiazepine sedative-hypnotics that enhance the effects of GABA (neurotransmitter). For example, Zolpidem, Zaleplon, eszopiclone. The risks of benzodiazepine use are significant.Benzodiazepine use is associated with increased fall risk across all age groups, and older adults are the highest risk group. That's something we should mention to patients who are requesting a “sleeping pill”, “you may sleep a little better, but you may fall.” A meta-analysis of randomized trials in adults over 60 found that benzodiazepines (vs placebo) caused: 2.6× more psychomotor problems (like falls and car accidents), 3.8× more daytime sleepiness, 4.8× more cognitive impairment. Also, benzodiazepine use is associated with a 34% increased risk of hip fractures (RR 1.34) in older adults. MOIRA: Very significant. Benzodiazepine use is only recommended for four weeks or less due to unproven long-term efficacy and the risk of tolerance, dependence, and misuse. Psychological and physical dependence on benzodiazepines can develop within a few weeks of regular or repeated use. Long-term use is associated with multiple consequences, including dependence, and even increased risk of opioid use.  Dr ARREAZA: And the withdrawal symptoms are very uncomfortable for benzo dependent patients who try to stop benzos on their own. MOIRA: And with the Z-drugs you were mentioning, the FDA has required that all Z-drugs carry a Boxed Warning highlighting the risk of complex sleep behaviors such as sleepwalking and sleep-driving, which can result in serious injuries including death. Medications such as benzodiazepines and antidepressants should be avoided for the treatment of insomnia in older adults whenever possible. DR ARREAZA: There are other prescription options too. Let's talk about low-dose doxepin has shown to have one of the best balances between efficacy and tolerability. When I hear “doxepin” the word “old” comes to my mind. And, yes, it was approved in 1969, it is a tricyclic antidepressant used to treat depression, anxiety, and insomnia. The recommended dose for insomnia is between 3-6 mg. It is not free of side effects, but lower doses seem to be better tolerated. Complex behaviors associated with doxepin: Doxepin may cause out of bed while not being fully awake and do an activity that you do not know you are doing. The next morning, you may not remember that you did anything during the night. You have a higher chance of doing these activities if you drink alcohol or take other medicines that make you sleepy with this medicine. Reported activities include: "sleep-driving", cooking and eating food, talking on the phone, having sex, or sleepwalking. Moira: Another group of medications is dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) such as lemborexant are considered medications with good balance of efficacy and tolerability. No single medication is considered the "best" for all patients. Let's remember that optimal medication depends on patient age, comorbidities, safety considerations, and the type of insomnia (sleep onset vs. maintenance.) MOIRA: Older adults deserve special attention. Although insomnia is not a normal part of the aging process, we do see its prevalence increases with age. CBT-I is effective in older adults and is associated with minimal side effects. We can't talk about sleep meds and older adults without mentioning BEERS criteria, which is a guideline which aims to reduce adverse drug events and polypharmacy by highlighting drugs with risks outweighing benefits, urging safer alternative. In sleep medicine and insomnia management for older adults, Beers Criteria explicitly flag sedating antihistamines (e.g., diphenhydramine, doxylamine) as potentially inappropriate for elderly patients due to anticholinergic burden and adverse effects such as delirium, cognitive impairment, sedation, and falls risk. MOIRA: Yes! So again, I want to highlight that the first line treatment should always be CBT-I, but when this isn't working or isn't an option, then think about adding pharmacotherapy. We should really be sharing that OTC options should only be for occasional sleep trouble, not chronic insomnia. Also, be mindful of age-related risks. And consider melatonin with caveats, melatonin may be an option with generally small sleep-onset effects but again, short-term use and quality matters. To close, OTC sleep aids fill a real need for short-term relief, but they're not a substitute for diagnosis and evidence-based treatment of insomnia, especially in older adults where safety is a particular concern. And our prescription options like benzos, z drugs, antidepressants, aren't much better. DR. ARREAZA: Primum non nocere (“first, do no harm”) is a chief consideration in insomnia management. Sleep is foundational to health, and I hope this helps our colleagues feel more confident in addressing it.If you found this helpful, share it with a friend or colleague and rate us wherever you listen to us.
