#Divorce: Support before, during and after with Sarah-Jane and Audrey
Hello, and welcome to the podcast. In this episode we are exploring a really important topic: how family mediation can help protect and support children when their parents are separating.Separation is hard — for everyone. But for children, it can be confusing, scary, and emotionally overwhelming. In this episode, Sarah-Jane will be wearing her Family mediator hat and answering questions on how family mediation can make this transition easier for them — and how it can help parents work together, even during a difficult time, to put their children first.If you would like your children to understand what family mediation is, we will be doing a section just for them, talking to them at the end of the episode.Resources Websites & Online Resources
Baisser l'abattant des toilettes avant de tirer la chasse est un geste simple, mais crucial pour des raisons d'hygiène, souvent sous-estimées. Ce réflexe permet de limiter la dispersion de microgouttelettes contaminées, un phénomène bien documenté par la science.Le phénomène de l'« aérosol fécal »Lorsque l'on tire la chasse d'eau, surtout dans des toilettes sans couvercle, un nuage invisible d'aérosols est projeté dans l'air. Ces microgouttelettes peuvent contenir des bactéries, des virus, et d'autres agents pathogènes présents dans les selles et l'urine. Une étude clé publiée en 2020 dans la revue Physics of Fluids a utilisé des simulations en 3D pour visualiser ce phénomène. Les chercheurs ont observé qu'un jet puissant de la chasse propulsait des gouttelettes jusqu'à un mètre au-dessus de la cuvette, en moins de six secondes. Ces particules peuvent ensuite rester en suspension dans l'air pendant plusieurs minutes, voire se déposer sur les surfaces environnantes.Contamination des surfacesLes toilettes sont souvent situées dans des espaces clos, où les surfaces proches — poignée de porte, lavabo, brosse WC, serviettes, brosse à dents — sont particulièrement vulnérables à cette contamination. Une étude publiée en 2005 dans le Journal of Hospital Infection a montré que le tirage de la chasse, sans abattant fermé, provoquait une dispersion bactérienne significative sur les surfaces jusqu'à plusieurs dizaines de centimètres autour des toilettes.Ces dépôts peuvent abriter des bactéries comme E. coli, Salmonella, Clostridium difficile, ou encore des virus gastro-intestinaux. Or, certaines de ces bactéries peuvent survivre plusieurs heures, voire plusieurs jours, sur les surfaces inertes. Cela augmente le risque de transmission indirecte par contact avec les mains.Un geste d'hygiène simple et efficaceFermer l'abattant agit comme une barrière mécanique. Même si cela ne bloque pas 100 % des aérosols, cela réduit drastiquement leur dispersion. Selon des recherches menées à l'Université de Leeds (UK), fermer le couvercle avant de tirer la chasse permet de diminuer la libération de bactéries dans l'air de plus de 50 %. Cela a d'autant plus d'importance dans les lieux partagés, comme les toilettes publiques, familiales ou professionnelles.En conclusionTirer la chasse sans fermer l'abattant revient à pulvériser dans l'air un mélange de microgouttelettes potentiellement infectieuses. En adoptant le réflexe de baisser le couvercle, on réduit ce risque de manière simple, rapide et efficace. Un petit geste d'hygiène… pour un grand bénéfice sanitaire. Hébergé par Acast.

#Divorce: Support before, during and after with Sarah-Jane and Audrey
In Today's episode we are talking to Audrey Zannese, a mind-body therapist, who helps ambitious and driven women battling with fatigue to manage it and take back control of their lives. Audrey teaches them how to manage and restore energy levels and discover a new way of living life with purpose and meaning, with a structured and accessible mind-body practice called sophrology. Sophrology is still unknown in the UK, and this is why we wanted to Audrey to come and talk about the techniques that she teaches to help to regulate anxiety and emotions, build a flexible and resilient mindset so that people feel back in control of their lives and more hopeful about the future. We believe that it can be a useful tool to deal with stress and anxiety of a divorce or a separation, help you be a better parent and maybe a better person. Audrey was recommended sophrology by a French neurologist when she started the treatment for MS and learnt how to manage her own condition. She's currently living symptom-free.

His clients call him “The Youtube ads guy.” He has overseen $22.2 million in ad spend over the last 12 months alone. Now on The Business of You, Youtube ad expert Tom Breeze is sharing some of his time-tested marketing secrets with us! Tom is the Creator and Founder of multiple brands: YouTube ad agency Viewability, and Bidurk, a YouTube content analysis software that helps you create better videos and grow your audience online. Viewability is an innovative, world-leading YouTube ad agency that partners with companies selling digital products to get reliable, profitable customers at scale. With over a decade of Youtube advertising experience, Tom and his team at Viewability have successfully cracked the formula for advertising on YouTube. Viewability is a performance-based agency, which means they only get paid when they get results. Tom Breeze worked to develop Bidurk, a new tool that scans an entire Youtube channel to identify areas for growth and opportunity. After identifying that Youtube channel creators were spending too much time desperately trying to grow their following, Tom realized that he had a way to increase results, decrease time spent and massively impact leads. Bidurk expedites the process of growing a Youtube channel by providing data and insight. Recently, Tom launched an exclusive, performance-based YouTube advertising club, Ad Buyers Club, where he shares bespoke advice with his members and gives them access to his entire expert team and network of contacts. Additionally, Tom Breeze is the Author of Viewability: Harness the Power of Youtube Ads and Show Up for Your Customer. He speaks passionately at conferences and conventions worldwide. Educated at the University of Leeds (UK), Tom achieved a Bachelor of Psychology degree and then continued his education at University of Surrey (UK) where he was awarded his Master of Psychology degree. After running several successful companies in the fields of presentation skills training, video marketing and online marketing, Tom specialized in the field of video advertising. Be willing to take big risks When Tom began running Youtube ads, he saw big opportunity. He also knew that he was willing to take big risks. Tom promised his client that he would cover the cost of his ad spend - if the client would pay him for results. After negotiating a dollar amount per lead, Tom got to work. When the numbers came back, everyone was happy. With his first major campaign, Tom made a 5x return on his investment and his client was raking in new leads. By willing to bet on himself, Tom had successfully proven what he was capable of. Even now, a decade later, Tom and his team at Viewability cover the ad spend of their clients - knowing that the results will create major profit. The five A's of Youtube advertising Youtube advertising is often seen as complicated, and entrepreneurs are frequently intimidated. But as Tom explains it, all you need are the five A's. Tom lists Audience, Ads, Acquisition, Accounts and Attitude as the secrets to great Youtube advertising. Audience means that there is already an audience on Youtube - as in, people are there for the content you are offering already. While you can build or attract an audience, advertising is much easier when this infrastructure exists. Ask yourself - are people on Youtube searching for the content you want to create? In the five A's of Youtube marketing, Ads is defined as the client's own ability to create good ads. Tom and his team at Viewability specifically work with clients who are good on camera and confidently speak about their offerings. Having a great personality on video is more likely to resonate with the right viewers, increasing the ad's likelihood to succeed. Acquisition refers to how you attract leads in your marketing funnel, and the quality of your offering. Is your offer converting? While anyone can get started advertising on Youtube, Tom acknowledges that prior ad data is a huge help. The fourth A stands for Accounts - and the supply of advertising data you can pull from to craft a profitable Youtube ad. What advertising have you done in the past and what did you learn about your audience? When it comes to advertising on the Youtube platform, being specific about your audience's behavior can pay off big time. Lastly, Tom names the last A as Attitude - because a healthy attitude towards marketing can make or break your success. When working with his clients, Tom and his team assess their attitude and expectations. What is their company's objective? What are their current goals? Do they have a flexible and resilient mindset? If you're curious about scaling your business with consistent, profitable Youtube ads, this episode is for you. Quotes “I wouldn't say I'm the cleverest person but I work hard. I'll outwork most people. If I find something interesting, I go deeper and deeper to find out more about that subject matter… sometimes, to the point where I go too deep.” “I'm quite happy with high risk. As long as the opportunity's big.” “With advertising, I find that the rules can change month to month. It's easier to keep on top of that for one client - it's harder to do that with lots of clients.” “The five things I look for when running a good Youtube ad are: They have to have a good audience already on the Youtube platform. The second thing is ads - can the clients create good ads? Then there is acquisition - saying, do you have a funnel? Is there a good offer that converts? Then you have the account - your ad account and how it is working, if you have results already. The fifth is your attitude - what the client is demanding, or wanting.” “Youtube consumers are looking for information or entertainment. Think of what the audience would be typing in.” “If you have a personality in a video, those people can educate and give value really effectively.” “How you get started on Youtube is really, really important. Go and create really good content.” “The whole idea is to amplify what you're already doing on Youtube - identifying what content already works for you, and get in front of more and more people.” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit the website for Viewability at https://viewability.co/ Check out Bidurk at https://www.bidurk.com/home Connect with Tom directly on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/tombreeze/ Find Tom on Facebook at https://en-gb.facebook.com/TomBreezeOfficial Buy Tom's book Viewability: Harness the Power of Youtube Ads and Show Up for Your Customer at https://www.viewability.co.uk/book

Video: Peterson Tells Millennials Why They CAN'T Change The World.. (8:03) “WATCH OUT! It started…” – Peter Schiff's Last WARNING (10:07) So THIS is how they plan to screw these companies, from inside out | Redacted with Clayton Morris (2:48) Higher vitamin C levels associated with lower mortality risk during 16-year period Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, November 25, 2022 A study reported in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health has uncovered an association between higher plasma vitamin C levels and a lower risk of mortality during more than 16 years of follow-up. The study included 473 men and 475 women between the ages of 53 and 84 who were enrolled in the General Population Nutrition Intervention Trial (NIT) cohort in Linxian, China. Plasma samples collected from 1999 to 2000 were analyzed for vitamin C levels. During the 16.4-year follow-up period, among subjects whose plasma vitamin C concentrations were among the top 25%, the adjusted risk of dying from any cause during follow-up was 25% lower than the risk experienced by subjects whose vitamin C levels were among the lowest quarter. Those whose plasma vitamin C levels were among the highest 25% had an adjusted risk of dying from cancer or stroke that was 28% lower and a risk of dying from heart disease that was 35% lower than subjects whose levels were lowest. When subjects with low vitamin C levels (defined as 28 micromoles per liter or below) and normal levels (greater than 28 micromoles per liter) were compared, a normal level was associated with a 23% lower risk of premature mortality and a 38% lower risk of dying from heart disease, in comparison with low levels. As a possible reason for their findings, Shao-Ming Wang and colleagues note that oxidative stress is lowered by vitamin C. Oxidative stress can promote endothelial dysfunction that underlies heart disease by increasing inflammation and lipid peroxidation and decreasing nitric oxide availability. Oxidative stress also causes DNA damage associated with cancer.”This study is the first to find the general benefits for higher plasma vitamin C concentrations on total and cause-specific mortalities, including cancer and heart diseases, in a long-term prospective cohort from China,” the authors announce. “In this long-term prospective Chinese cohort study, higher plasma vitamin C concentration was associated with lower total mortality, heart disease mortality, and cancer mortality. Our results corroborate the importance of adequate vitamin C to human health.” (next) Cauliflower Prevent Various Cancers: Thanks to Sulforaphane Compounds Rugters University, November 19, 2022 Cauliflower contains glucosinolates and thiocyanates — both sulfur-containing phytonutrients that cleanse the body of damaging free radicals. It also contains a substance called sulforaphane (SFN), a compound known to inhibit the occurrence of some cancers in rats caused by carcinogens, primarily colon cancer. In the Rutger's research, it was found once again that diet does matter in cancer prevention: “Our research has substantiated the connection between diet and cancer prevention, and it is now clear that the expression of cancer-related genes can be influenced by chemopreventive compounds in the things we eat,” said Kong, a professor of pharmaceutics in the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. In this particular study, mice fed a diet high in sulforaphane, the substance naturally occurring in cauliflower and broccoli, enjoyed fewer cancerous tumors, polyps, and smaller tumors in their colons. After three weeks, the mice fed sulforaphane had a 25% decline in tumors and those given double the dose had a 47% decrease in cancerous tumors. The results are obvious, “Our results showed that SFN produced its cancer preventive effects in the mice by inducing apoptosis (programmed cell death) and inhibiting proliferation of the tumors; however, it was not clear what mechanism SFN employs to accomplish this,” Kong said. Kong's team found that SFN suppressed certain enzymes or kinases that are highly expressed both in the mice and in patients with colon cancer. The researchers concluded that this enzymatic suppression activity is the likely basis for the chemopreventive effects of SFN. Along with cauliflower's high levels of SFN, it is also a powerful antioxidant with high levels of vitamin C and vitamin A, also known as cancer inhibitors. Researchers also believe that if you consume cauliflower and turmeric spice together, you can prevent or eradicate prostate cancer totally. The scientists, once again from Rutger's, tested turmeric and it's active compound known as curcumin along with phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a naturally occurring substance in certain vegetables such as watercress, cabbage, winter cress, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kale, cauliflower, kohlrabi and turnips. They found cancer-preventative qualities in the duo. (next) Increasing protein intake by 25 g a day could help women reduce hip fracture risk by up to 14% University of Leeds (UK), November 28, 2022 Increasing intake of protein and drinking regular cups of tea or coffee is one way women could reduce their risk of suffering a hip fracture, according to new research. Food scientists at the University of Leeds in the UK have found that for women, a 25 g a day increase in protein was associated with, on average, a 14% reduction in their risk of hip fracture. In a surprise twist, they also discovered that every additional cup of tea or coffee they drank was linked with a 4% reduction in risk. Writing in the journal Clinical Nutrition, the researchers noted that the protective benefits were greater for women who were underweight, with a 25 g/day increase in protein reducing their risk by 45%. The investigation—”Foods, nutrients and hip fracture risk: A prospective study of middle-aged women”—is based on a large observational analysis of more than 26,000 women. As an observational study, the researchers were able to identify associations between factors in diet and health. They could not single out direct cause and effect. “Diet is a factor that people can modify to protect themselves by maintaining healthy bones and muscles. This study is one of the first to investigate relationships between food and nutrient intakes and risk of hip fracture, with hip fractures accurately identified through hospital records.” The recommended protein intake in the UK is 0.8 g per kilogram of bodyweight per day, a limit some nutritional experts believe is too low. As the study revealed, people who had a higher protein consumption had a reduction in the risk of hip fracture. However, intakes of protein which are very high—where intake is greater than 2 to 3 g of protein/kg body weight/day—can have negative health effects. The study was not able to explore these very high protein intake levels. Professor Janet Cade, who leads the Nutritional Epidemiology Group at Leeds and supervised the research, said, “In the UK most people eat an adequate amount of protein, however, certain groups, such as vegetarians or vegans need to check that their protein intakes are high enough for good health.”Tea and coffee both contain biologically active compounds called polyphenols and phytoestrogens which may help to maintain bone health. Professor Cade added, “This is an interesting finding given that tea and coffee are the UK's favorite drinks. We still need to know more about how these drinks could affect bone health but it might be through promoting the amount of calcium present in our bones.” (next) Mindfulness meditation trumps placebo in pain reduction Wake Forest Medical Center – November 11, 2022 Scientists at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center have found new evidence that mindfulness meditation reduces pain more effectively than placebo. This is significant because placebo-controlled trials are the recognized standard for demonstrating the efficacy of clinical and pharmacological treatments. The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, showed that study participants who practiced mindfulness meditation reported greater pain relief than placebo. Significantly, brain scans showed that mindfulness meditation produced very different patterns of activity than those produced by placebo to reduce pain. “We were completely surprised by the findings,” said Fadel Zeidan, Ph.D., assistant professor of neurobiology and anatomy at Wake Forest Baptist and lead investigator of the study. “While we thought that there would be some overlap in brain regions between meditation and placebo, the findings from this study provide novel and objective evidence that mindfulness meditation reduces pain in a unique fashion.”Pain was induced by using a thermal probe to heat a small area of the participants' skin to 49 degrees Centigrade (120.2 degrees Fahrenheit), a level of heat most people find very painful. Study participants then rated pain intensity (physical sensation) and pain unpleasantness (emotional response). The participants' brains were scanned with arterial spin labeling magnetic resonance imaging (ASL MRI) before and after their respective four-day group interventions. The mindfulness meditation group reported that pain intensity was reduced by 27 percent and by 44 percent for the emotional aspect of pain. In contrast, the placebo cream reduced the sensation of pain by 11 percent and emotional aspect of pain by 13 percent. “The MRI scans showed for the first time that mindfulness meditation produced patterns of brain activity that are different than those produced by the placebo cream,” Zeidan said. Mindfulness meditation reduced pain by activating brain regions (orbitofrontal and anterior cingulate cortex) associated with the self-control of pain while the placebo cream lowered pain by reducing brain activity in pain-processing areas (secondary somatosensory cortex). Another brain region, the thalamus, was deactivated during mindfulness meditation, but was activated during all other conditions. This brain region serves as a gateway that determines if sensory information is allowed to reach higher brain centers. By deactivating this area, mindfulness meditation may have caused signals about pain to simply fade away, Zeidan said. Mindfulness meditation also was significantly better at reducing pain intensity and pain unpleasantness than the placebo meditation. The placebo-meditation group had relatively small decreases in pain intensity (9 percent) and pain unpleasantness (24 percent). The study findings suggest that placebo meditation may have reduced pain through a relaxation effect that was associated with slower breathing. “This study is the first to show that mindfulness meditation is mechanistically distinct and produces pain relief above and beyond the analgesic effects seen with either placebo cream or sham meditation,” Zeidan said. “Based on our findings, we believe that as little as four 20-minute daily sessions of mindfulness meditation could enhance pain treatment in a clinical setting. However, given that the present study examined healthy, pain-free volunteers, we cannot generalize our findings to chronic pain patients at this time. (next) Shaking less salt on your food at the table could reduce heart disease risk Researchers found a link between a lower frequency of dietary salt and a reduced CVD risk Tulane University, November 27, 2022 Adding additional salt to foods at a lower frequency is associated with a reduced risk of heart disease, heart failure and ischemic heart disease, according to a new study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Even among those following a DASH-style diet, behavioral interventions to lessen salt consumption could further improve heart health. “Overall, we found that people who don't shake on a little additional salt to their foods very often had a much lower risk of heart disease events, regardless of lifestyle factors and pre-existing disease,” said Lu Qi, MD, Regents Distinguished Chair at the School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine at Tulane University in New Orleans. “We also found that when patients combine a DASH diet with a low frequency of adding salt, they had the lowest heart disease risk. This is meaningful as reducing additional salt to food, not removing salt entirely, is an incredibly modifiable risk factor that we can hopefully encourage our patients to make without much sacrifice.” In the current study, the authors evaluated whether the frequency of adding salt to foods was linked with incident heart disease risk in 176,570 participants from the UK Biobank. The study also examined the association between the frequency of adding salt to foods and the DASH diet as it relates to heart disease risk. The study used a questionnaire at baseline to collect data on the frequency of adding salt to foods, not including salt used in cooking. Participants were also asked if they had made any major changes to their diet in the last 5 years, as well as complete 1-5 rounds of 24-hour dietary recalls over a three-year period. The DASH-style diet was developed to prevent hypertension by limiting consumption of red and processed meats and focusing on vegetables, fruit, whole grains, low-fat dairy, nuts, and legumes. While the DASH diet has yielded benefits in relation to reducing cardiovascular disease risk, a recent clinical trial found that combining the DASH diet with sodium reduction was more beneficial for certain cardiac biomarkers, including cardiac injury, strain, and inflammation. The researchers calculated a modified DASH score that did not consider sodium intake based on seven foods and nutrients that were emphasized or deemphasized in the DASH-style diet. Overall, study participants with a lower frequency of adding salt to foods were more likely to be women; white; have a lower body mass index; more likely to have moderate alcohol consumption; less likely to be current smokers; and more physically active. They also had a higher prevalence of high blood pressure and chronic kidney disease, but a lower prevalence of cancer. These participants were also more likely to adhere to a DASH-style diet and consumed more fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes, whole grains, low-fat dietary but less sugar-sweetened drinks or red/processed meats than those with a higher frequency of adding salt to foods. The researchers found the association of adding salt to foods with heart disease risk was stronger in participants of lower socioeconomic status, as well as in current smokers. A higher modified DASH diet score was associated with lower risk of heart disease events. (next) Ten minutes of aerobic exercise with exposure therapy found to reduce PTSD symptoms University of New South Wales, November 25, 2022 Exposure therapy is one of the leading treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but up to a half of all patients don't respond to it. But now a study led by UNSW Sydney psychologists has found that augmenting the therapy with 10 minutes of aerobic exercise has led to patients reporting greater reduction to PTSD symptom severity six months after the nine-week treatment ended. In the first known single-blind randomized control trial of its kind, researchers in Sydney recruited 130 adults with clinically diagnosed PTSD and assigned them to two groups. People in both groups received nine 90-minute exposure therapy sessions. At the end of each session, one group was put through 10 minutes of aerobic exercises, while members of the control group were given 10 minutes of passive stretching. People in the aerobic exercise group on average reported lower severity of PTSD symptoms—as measured on the CAPS-2 scale—than those who had their exposure therapy augmented by stretching exercises at the six-month follow-up. Interestingly, there were no clear differences between the two groups one week after the treatment program ended, suggesting the benefits take time to develop. The findings were reported in The Lancet Psychiatry.
HEALTH NEWS Hyaluranic acid, a naturally occurring compound, awakens stem cells to repair damaged muscle 'A banana a day': Starch supplement may reduce the risk of some hereditary cancers Running reduces risk of death regardless of duration, speed Eating processed foods is hurting your brain, study says: Even '2 cookies' can affect health Sharing memories with toddlers helps their well-being into adulthood What the Amish can teach us about health and happiness Hyaluranic acid, a naturally occurring compound, awakens stem cells to repair damaged muscle University of Ottawa (Ontario), August 4 2022 A new study published in the journal Science reveals a unique form of cell communication that controls muscle repair. In damaged muscle, stem cells must work together with immune cells to complete the repair process, yet how these cells coordinate to ensure the efficient removal of dead tissue before making new muscle fibers has remained unknown. The scientists have now shown that a natural substance called hyaluronic acid, which is used in cosmetics and injections for osteoarthritis, is the key molecule that manages this fundamental interaction. "When muscles get damaged, it is important for immune cells to quickly enter the tissue and remove the damage before stem cellsbegin repair," said Dr. Jeffrey Dilworth, senior scientist at the University of Ottawa and senior author on the study. "Our study shows that muscle stem cells are primed to start repair right away, but the immune cells maintain the stem cells in a resting state while they finish the cleanup job. After about 40 hours, once the cleanup job is finished, an internal alarm goes off in the muscle stem cells that allows them to wake up and start repair." Dr. Dilworth and his team identified hyaluronic acid as the key ingredient in this internal alarm clock that tells muscle stem cells when to wake up. When muscle damage occurs, stem cells start producing and coating themselves with hyaluronic acid. Once the coating gets thick enough, it blocks the sleep signal from the immune cells and causes the muscle stem cells to wake up. "Interestingly, aging is associated with chronic inflammation, muscle weakness and a reduced ability of muscle stem cells to wake up and repair damage,. "If we could find a way to enhance hyaluronic acid production in the muscle stem cells of older people it might help with muscle repair." 'A banana a day': Starch supplement may reduce the risk of some hereditary cancers Universities of Newcastle and Leeds (UK), August 4, 2022 Resistant starches (RS) are carbohydrates that pass undigested through the small intestine and are digested, or fermented, in the large intestine. They are present in plant-based foods including beans, oats, breakfast cereals, rice, cooked and cooled pasta, peas, and slightly unripe bananas. RS forms part of dietary fiber, which is known to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer and many other non-communicable diseases. Researchers at Newcastle University and the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom found that a RS powder supplement may help prevent cancer in people with Lynch syndrome. Lynch syndrome, an inherited condition, predisposes people to colon cancer, gastric cancer, and several other cancers. The experts ran a multinational trial involving almost 1,000 people with Lynch syndrome. They gave the participants a 30g dose of RS for an average of two years. The supplementation did not affect colorectal cancers as expected. However, unexpectedly, its protective potential was most apparent in the upper digestive tract, where cancers are aggressive and not usually caught early.The trial analyzed the long-term effects of aspirin and RS on cancer onset in patients with Lynch syndrome. The dose used was equivalent to eating one slightly unripe banana daily. Bananas at this stage resist breakdown in the small intestine, reaching the large intestine and feeding the microbiome there. They found no difference in the number of colorectal cancer cases. However, fewer participants receiving the supplement developed non-colorectal LS cancers compared to those taking the placebo. Running reduces risk of death regardless of duration, speed Iowa State University, July 29, 2022 Running 5 minutes daily can reduce risk of cardiovascular disease-related death Running for only a few minutes a day or at slow speeds may significantly reduce a person's risk of death from cardiovascular disease compared to someone who does not run, according to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Researchers studied 55,137 adults between the ages of 18 and 100 over a 15-year period to determine whether there is a relationship between running and longevity. In the study period, 3,413 participants died, including 1,217 whose deaths were related to cardiovascular disease. In this population, 24 percent of the participants reported running as part of their leisure-time exercise. Compared with non-runners, the runners had a 30 percent lower risk of death from all causes and a 45 percent lower risk of death from heart disease or stroke. Runners on average lived three years longer compared to non-runners. Also, to reduce mortality risk at a population level from a public health perspective, the authors concluded that promoting running is as important as preventing smoking, obesity or hypertension. The benefits were the same no matter how long, far, frequently or fast participants reported running. Benefits were also the same regardless of sex, age, body mass index, health conditions, smoking status or alcohol use. The study showed that participants who ran less than 51 minutes, fewer than 6 miles, slower than 6 miles per hour, or only one to two times per week had a lower risk of dying compared to those who did not run. Runners who ran less than an hour per week have the same mortality benefits compared to runners who ran more than three hours per week. Thus, it is possible that the more may not be the better in relation to running and longevity. Eating processed foods is hurting your brain, study says: Even '2 cookies' can affect health Yale University, August 3, 2022 Although it's obvious that a diet of hot dogs and ice cream won't lead to a healthy physical life, new research illuminates how ultra-processed foods can also cause a significant decrease in brain function. Research presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in San Diego outlined how foods such as instant noodles, sugary drinks and frozen meals all play a factor in a faster rate of cognitive decline. "Just 100 calories of processed foods can affect your physical health. So, that's two cookies." Research has linked ultra-processed food consumption to health problems like obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancers. That's because they cause inflammation, which can affect neurotransmitters in the brain. Processed foods also operate on a micro level with billions and billions of bacteria cells that (impair) functioning." The findings found that participants who were getting 20% or more of their daily calories from ultra-processed foods saw a far faster decline in cognitive performance over the span of six to 10 years versus people with diets containing few processed foods. Sharing memories with toddlers helps their well-being into adulthood University of Otago (New Zealand), August 3 2022 How mothers share memories with their children during toddlerhood impacts mental health and well-being in early adulthood, a University of Otago study has shown. Researchers found 21-year-olds told more coherent stories about turning points in their lives if their mothers were taught new conversational techniques two decades earlier. These adults also reported fewer symptoms of depression and greater self-esteem compared to adults in the study whose mothers interacted with them as usual. The study, published in Journal of Research in Personality, is a long-term follow-up of a reminiscing intervention in which 115 mothers of toddlers were assigned to either a control group or taught to use elaborative reminiscing for a year. Elaborative reminiscing involves open, enriched, and responsive conversations with children about shared experiences of everyday events. This is the first study to show long-term benefits of mother-child reminiscing for emerging adult development. What the Amish can teach us about health and happiness University of Tennessee, July 29, 2022 Often viewed as outcasts by mainstream society, the Amish may seem downright bizarre to the average American. Foregoing technological advancements that many of us would be lost without, the Amish have created a way of life that fosters a connection with the land and environment, while also cultivating an impressive sense of community. And they are healthy -- exceedingly so. The Amish rarely experience disorders like cancer or cardiovascular disease, seemingly able to bypass illness altogether. What's their secret? One of the most striking aspects of the Amish is how they lead their lives, free from modern inventions like electricity, telephones, cars and the myriad of gadgets most of us consider so essential for our productivity and happiness. This high level of daily physical activity helps to keep their obesity rates low and cardiovascular health in top form. "The Amish were able to show us just how far we've fallen in the last 150 years or so in terms of the amount of physical activity we typically perform. Their lifestyle indicates that physical activity played a critical role in keeping our ancestors fit and healthy." One of the main contributors to stress is the speed at which we move, think and process. We are bombarded with sensory information at every turn. Not so with the Amish. Their communities are based on patience and a slower way of being. Competition is frowned upon, while cooperation and harmony are respected. Social support is strong. Through traditional gender roles, each person has a valued part to play within the community. The study published in Scientific Research discovered that mental health is enhanced by the structure of Amish society. Martial stability, mutual support, a secure parental base and care for the elderly were found to be contributing factors in cultivating happiness and contentment. Moreover, the Amish tend to have low vaccination rates. Instead, they rely on clean living and a healthy diet of homegrown, organic produce, raw dairy and nourishing fats to keep immunity strong.
