Food as Medicine: Why Medical Nutrition Therapy and Medically Tailored Meals Belong in Modern Healthcare: Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin argues that food should be treated with the same rigor as medication through medical nutrition therapy (MNT) and “diet prescriptions,” integrating nutrition into treatment plans rather than leaving it as optional advice. She cites evidence that medically tailored meals (MTMs) can improve outcomes and reduce costs, including a Health Affairs simulation estimating $23.7B in first-year net savings nationwide and a Nature Medicine analysis of a Massachusetts Medicaid demonstration (2020–2023) showing MTM recipients had 31% fewer hospitalizations, 20% fewer emergency visits, and $3,433 lower total healthcare costs, offsetting 98% of program costs. She discusses food insecurity, expanding Medicaid coverage via Section 1115 waivers, EHR integration, and how MTMs support adherence for conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, depression, and IBS (including low FODMAP).

877. L-theanine, an amino acid found in tea leaves, is having a moment with longevity enthusiasts and menopause influencers alike, promoted to calm anxiety, clear brain fog, improve sleep, and slow aging. But does the research hold up? In this episode, Monica breaks down what the studies on L-theanine actually show about attention, sleep quality, stress, and cellular aging, and why a cup of coffee or a short nap might do just as much for your focus.ReferencesCognitive and affective effects of L-Theanine: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 31 randomized trials | Molecular Psychiatry The effects of L-theanine consumption on sleep outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis - ScienceDirect L-Theanine Extends the Lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans by Reducing the End Products of Advanced Glycosylation l-theanine: From tea leaf to trending supplement – does the science match the hype for brain health and relaxation? - ScienceDirect Related episodes594 - How sleep affects weight gain834 - The Truth About ‘Cortisol Belly'848 - Your questions about coffee and health Hosted on Acast.

After 17 years of misdiagnosed infertility and repeated early miscarriages, I became a mom against the odds. That deep desire to have a family is what pulled me into this work.My first birth nearly killed me. My daughter was stuck, I told them the position I needed and was ignored, and three hours later it became an emergency. Forceps, a fourth-degree tear, a hemorrhage. I almost died on that table. Then I had to fight to breastfeed my own baby, after being told my infertility was the reason they couldn't help. It wasn't.I've since parented my children through real medical conditions, including sickle cell, and learned firsthand how often families are sent home without answers.Today I'm mom to two loud, joyful kids tearing up my house. My son just wants to play Uno. My daughter is a princess who spins on the floor constantly. Everything I survived became the reason I refuse to let anyone who walks through my door go through what I did.I'm the founder of Birthwise, a Charlotte-based maternal and women's health practice, and the creator of The Lifespan Birth Method™, an integrated approach that treats birth as a lifespan event, not a 48-hour clinical one. I support families through fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, train new practitioners, and work with insurers and policymakers on better maternal care. My two-year partnership with AmeriHealth Caritas saved an average of $2,000 per birth and is now expanding statewide across North Carolina.

Living longer is not the goal. Living better is, because the extra years most people are gaining are sick years, not good ones. In this solo episode, Coach Allan digs into the Global Burden of Disease study published in The Lancet Public Health, which found the gap between lifespan and healthspan grew from 8.8 years in 1990 to 10.7 years by 2023. That is nearly eleven years, about 15% of a life, spent sick and incapable at the end. He opens with a story from Puerto Vallarta, where an earthquake left a man in his early seventies stuck on the third floor because he did not have the leg strength to walk down the stairs, and had to tell his wife to go on without him. The earthquake did not cause that. It revealed it. Allan then walks through his own earthquake moment, a stage 3 kidney cancer diagnosis and the immunotherapy he is still going through, the five levers that actually close the gap, and why the retirement-account model of health is the wrong one.

At Lifespan, our mission is to help you and your loved ones live your longest, healthiest lives while supporting medical research into breakthroughs to improve all lives. We're building the world's largest longevity community: Join us at https://lifespan.com. Follow us on YouTube, Apple, and Spotify for new Lifespan episodes every 2 weeks. __________________________________________ This episode explores why humans are biologically built to move and what happens to the aging process when we don't. Drawing on evolutionary biology and the latest research, Dr. Sinclair traces physical activity back millions of years, explaining how humans evolved for endurance, why modern sedentary life creates a profound mismatch with our biology, and how exercise activates ancient cellular pathways involved in repair, resilience, metabolism, and longevity. Dr. Sinclair breaks down what happens inside the body when we exercise, including the molecular responses that help us adapt to stress and influence the brain, immune system, metabolism, cardiovascular health, and even the way our cells age. He also tackles some of the biggest questions in exercise science: Can exercise offset sitting all day? Do we compensate for calories burned during exercise? Why did humans evolve such extraordinary endurance? And could exercising with others provide benefits beyond physical fitness? From our evolutionary past to the molecular machinery inside our cells, this episode reveals why movement is so deeply embedded in human biology – and why staying active may be one of the most powerful ways to keep that biology working as we age. __________________________________________ Partners of the Lifespan show help us keep this program freely available as an educational resource while also supporting medical research.

Supplements and Morning Coffee: Timing Iron, Zinc, Calcium, B Vitamins, and Vitamin D: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin explains that coffee (and tea) can interfere with nutrient absorption and digestion, so certain supplements shouldn't be taken with morning coffee. Coffee's tannins and polyphenols can significantly reduce non-heme iron absorption (decaf doesn't prevent this), and similar binding issues may affect zinc; she recommends taking iron with water at least 1–2 hours away from coffee and pairing it with vitamin C. Because caffeine may increase urination, B vitamins (especially thiamine) may be lost more readily, so she suggests taking them with food but not with coffee. Vitamin D is best taken with a fat-containing meal (not washed down with coffee), and calcium supplements should be separated from coffee since caffeine can slightly increase calcium loss. She also notes interactions such as green tea reducing folate absorption, spinach oxalates limiting mineral absorption, phytates in bran/legumes reducing iron and zinc absorption, and calcium (milk or supplements) cutting iron absorption, emphasizing timing rather than eliminating these foods.

Natalie Ochoa, president of Jigsaw Health, details widespread magnesium insufficiency and why it occurs (soil depletion, low plant intake/processed foods, stress-related loss, aging, and medication effects including diuretics and proton pump inhibitors). They discuss the poor reliability of standard serum magnesium testing, the limitations of RBC magnesium testing, and using symptoms such as cramps, twitches, constipation, fatigue, and sleep trouble as clues. Ochoa explains Jigsaw's sustained-release magnesium malate (MagSRT) designed to reduce GI side effects and how to read labels for elemental magnesium, with typical intake around 500 mg/day. She reviews the 2018 placebo-controlled Scottsdale Magnesium Study (91 participants) showing increases in RBC and serum magnesium and reduced deficiency symptoms, and a Korean study linking higher magnesium intake to less sarcopenia and lower CRP. They also cover MagSoothe (magnesium glycinate) and an Oura Ring-based sleep trial reporting reduced perceived stress and improved sleep quality, plus mention Jigsaw's potassium drink, electrolyte product, and cod liver oil.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Natalie Ochoa, president of Jigsaw Health.

What if the future of medicine isn't only about treating disease, but understanding what's happening in the body long before disease takes hold? Dr. Michael Aziz joins I Am Refocused Radio for a conversation about longevity, preventive health, nutrition, biological aging, and the ideas behind his book, The Ageless Revolution. Dr. Aziz is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician, author, and media commentator whose work brings together traditional and functional medicine. He has appeared across national media and has spent years exploring nutrition, hormones, preventive medicine, and strategies aimed at improving healthspan. In this conversation, we explore what happens to the body as we age, why Dr. Aziz believes medicine should pay greater attention to the mechanisms of aging, the difference between lifespan and healthspan, and what people should understand about the rapidly growing longevity movement. We also discuss nutrition, metabolic health, emerging approaches to healthy aging, and how people can become more proactive about their health without getting lost in every new wellness trend. https://www.michaelazizmd.com/  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time. 

Cardiologist and electrophysiologist Dr. Gregory Marcus, chair of the American Heart Association scientific statement writing group, reveals evidence on coffee/caffeine and cardiovascular health. He discusses how earlier assumptions that caffeine triggers arrhythmias are complicated by genetics, individual risk factors, and mostly observational research. Marcus reviews randomized and observational findings: the CRAVE trial showed no increase in premature atrial contractions but more premature ventricular contractions on coffee days; a trial in post-cardioversion patients found less atrial fibrillation with daily coffee. Observational data suggest lower risks of type 2 diabetes, heart attack, stroke, and AFib among coffee drinkers, while heart failure risk may be lower at low intake but higher around 4–5 drinks/day. He cautions against extrapolating benefits to energy drinks, discusses additives like sugar, touches on alcohol, cannabis, Mediterranean/DASH diets, pollution, and evolving AFib treatments, wearables, and pacing/ablation technologies.

Managing High Homocysteine with MTHFR Variants and the Role of Vitamin C in Brain Aging: Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses MTHFR genetic variants (C677T and A1298C), their links to impaired methylation, homocysteine, SAMe, mood issues, migraines, vitamin deficiencies, and pregnancy complications, noting many people are asymptomatic and some feel worse on methylated B vitamins and do better on standard formulations. Responding to a listener with C677T, high homocysteine, and borderline methylmalonic acid, she reviews optimal homocysteine targets and outlines other causes of elevated homocysteine such as hypothyroidism/subclinical hypothyroidism, kidney failure, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, inactivity, and medications (atorvastatin, methotrexate, fenofibrate). She suggests checking these factors, considering absorption issues (intrinsic factor) for B12, and trialing SAMe and more trimethylglycine, with possible pharmacologic folate if needed. She then summarizes an observational Japanese study (n=2,044 adults >64) linking lower plasma vitamin C to reduced gray matter and weaker default mode network connectivity, and notes diet and blood sugar can affect vitamin C status.

Why does the average dog now live 7 fewer years than one did in the 1970s? Holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Morgan says the answer is sitting in the food bowl, and it's fixable. With 36 years in practice and a base in traditional Chinese veterinary medicine, Dr. Judy Morgan explains how food became the foundation of her work, why dry kibble fails dogs and cats, and the simple whole foods that add years of healthy life. This is a rare episode on how pet health and human health mirror each other. Meet our guest Dr. Judy Morgan (DVM, CVA, CVCP, CVFT) is an integrative veterinarian, acupuncturist, chiropractor, food therapist, and best-selling author with more than 40 years in animal health. Named IAOTP Holistic Veterinarian of the Decade for 2024, she runs Dr. Judy Morgan's Naturally Healthy Pets, helping pet parents worldwide heal with food and natural therapies instead of defaulting to chemicals and processed food.

Dry kibble is capped near 30% meat and can be 50 to 60% carbohydrates, which pets do not require. Roughly 40% of pet-food ingredients are upcycled byproducts, and unnamed "meat meal" can be any species. Pets test 10 to 25 times higher than their owners for cancer-linked household chemicals. Low phosphorus and high moisture matter far more than restricting protein in kidney disease. Cheap whole-food toppers like sardines, eggs, blueberries, and pumpkin make a real difference.

How to Extend Your Healthspan with Dr. Sandeep Palakodeti Living longer is not the real goal. Living longer with the strength, energy, mental clarity, and independence to enjoy those years is what matters. In this episode of The Customer Service Revolution Podcast, John DiJulius speaks with Dr. Sandeep "Dr. Deep" Palakodeti, founder and CEO of Velocity Health and author of The Ultimate Asset: Extend Your Prime, Not Just Your Lifespan. They explore how proactive longevity medicine, personalized healthcare, better diagnostics, and sustainable lifestyle changes can help people extend their healthspan—not simply their lifespan. What Is the Difference Between Lifespan and Healthspan? Lifespan measures how long someone lives. Healthspan considers how many of those years are lived with physical capability, cognitive health, energy, and functional independence. Dr. Deep explains that most people do not simply want more years. They want to remain active, mentally sharp, and capable of caring for themselves as they age. John connects that goal to his philosophy of living an extraordinary life. Developing your full potential is not only about personal achievement; it affects your family, employees, customers, and everyone who depends on you. How Much of Our Health Is Determined by Genetics? Genetics can increase a person's risk for certain diseases, but increased risk does not always determine the outcome. Dr. Deep discusses how sleep, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, nutrition, exercise, and other environmental factors may influence long-term health. Understanding your risks can help you and your healthcare team make more informed decisions earlier. Why Is Traditional Healthcare Often Reactive? The traditional healthcare system frequently gives physicians limited time with each patient. This can make care feel rushed, impersonal, and focused on responding to problems after they appear. What Is Concierge Precision Medicine? Concierge precision medicine uses a smaller patient panel, longer appointments, advanced diagnostics, ongoing coaching, and more direct physician access to provide proactive, relationship-based care. Velocity Health uses a digital-first model that serves patients across all 50 states. Members work with a physician, concierge, and human performance specialist to understand their health data and build a personalized plan. Can Technology and Medication Replace Healthy Habits? No medication, supplement, or emerging therapy eliminates the need for sleep, nutrition, movement, strength training, and mental well-being. Dr. Deep explains that tools such as GLP-1 medications or hormone replacement therapy may provide momentum for appropriately selected patients under medical supervision. However, lasting results require sustainable behavioral change and professional guidance. What Are the First Steps Toward a Longer Healthspan? Dr. Deep recommends beginning with three areas: Improve the quality and consistency of your sleep. Measure meaningful health indicators under qualified professional guidance. Find a physician or healthcare team willing to provide personalized, relationship-based care. Key Takeaways Healthspan is more meaningful than lifespan when the goal is to remain active and independent. Genetics can affect disease risk without completely determining a person's future. Sleep, exercise, nutrition, metabolic health, and mental well-being remain foundational. Advanced diagnostics can reveal risks that routine healthcare may not identify early. Concierge medicine is designed around accessibility, time, relationships, and proactive care. Medication should be treated as a clinical tool—not a replacement for healthier behavior. The best health plan is personalized, measurable, medically guided, and sustainable. Protecting your health helps you continue contributing to your family, organization, and community.

Chemical engineer and MoldCo founder Ariana Thacker discusses mold-related illness, including chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS), as a major blind spot in conventional care for chronic, multi-system symptoms. Thacker recounts developing rapid-onset brain fog, slurred speech, GI issues, hair loss, weight gain, and shortness of breath after six and a half months in a moldy Miami apartment, seeing over a dozen specialists who attributed symptoms to stress or anxiety. They discuss exposures beyond allergy (mycotoxins, VOCs, microbial fragments), genetic susceptibility (HLA haplotypes), and prevalence estimates tied to water-damaged homes. The episode covers home detection (sensory/visual checks, humidity, dust PCR/ERMI testing, certified inspectors) and diagnostics/treatment via Shoemaker-related biomarkers and protocols, including low-starch diet guidance and VIP peptide therapy, plus MoldCo's testing and virtual care services.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with chemical engineer and MoldCo founder Ariana Thacker.

How long does a pole vault pit actually last?It's one of the most common questions coaches ask, but the answer isn't as simple as 10 years, 15 years, or 20 years.In this episode of the Gill Connections Podcast, Mike Cunningham breaks down the factors that truly determine the lifespan of a pole vault pit and explains why age alone is often the wrong metric.You'll learn:✅ Why indoor pits often last longer than outdoor pits✅ How sun, rain, snow, and temperature changes impact pit life✅ The critical role weather covers and pit garages play✅ How usage volume affects foam, vinyl, and hardware✅ The difference between pit age and pit condition✅ What a pole vault pit warranty actually covers✅ Practical steps coaches can take to extend pit lifespan✅ Common warning signs that indicate repairs or replacement may be neededThroughout the discussion, Mike shares real-world examples from facility visits across the country, including pits that remained serviceable after 20+ years and others that required replacement much sooner due to environmental exposure, water intrusion, and maintenance issues.Whether you're evaluating your current pit, planning future budgets, or simply trying to protect one of the largest investments in your pole vault program, this episode provides practical guidance to help maximize safety and extend the life of your landing system.

Creating a Healthier Home: Indoor Air Purification and Reverse Osmosis Water Safety. Environmental and wellness expert Helen Christoni discusses reducing toxic exposures at home through improved indoor air and water quality. Christoni describes her health crisis—severe osteoporosis at 42 and multiple fractures—which she attributes to chronic artificial fragrance exposure in beauty product development, and how purifying air and water helped her recover and later complete multiple marathons. They discuss indoor air hazards such as VOCs (including formaldehyde), microplastics, wildfire smoke particles, and the importance of using a sealed, high-grade HEPA (down to 0.003 microns) plus substantial carbon filtration, proper room sizing, and filter maintenance; they caution against relying on ionizers or UV add-ons. On water, Christoni urges reverse osmosis to address contaminants including lead, PFAS, pharmaceuticals, and arsenic, noting boiling concentrates pollutants; they also discuss shower filtration for chlorine/chloramines.

What if the peptide you just ordered online isn't wrong — it's just wrong for you? In Episode 2 of our peptides series, clinical pharmacist Dr. Melissa Jones takes us inside the actual decision-making process providers use to match a peptide to a patient, and why skipping that process is how people end up wasting money, or worse, hurting themselves. Host Jamie Preston and Dr. Jones dig into the real science: what a peptide is, how peptides signal the body, and why a healthy foundation — hormones and gut health — has to come before any peptide is even considered. From there, they cover the wide menu of options (tissue repair, skin and hair, sexual health, growth hormone support, metabolic health, sleep and stress) and what it actually means to “stack” or “cycle” peptides responsibly. In this episode, you'll hear: Why there isn't — and won't be — one peptide that does it all, and what that means for how providers build a plan How stacking and cycling actually work, and where cost becomes a real factor in the decision The difference between FDA-approved peptide uses (like Tesamorelin for visceral fat) and the anecdotal dosing happening across the wellness world The real danger in reconstituting and self-dosing peptides ordered online, explained in plain terms What responsible, supervised GLP-1 (Mounjaro, Ozempic, tirzepatide) therapy looks like — and what goes wrong with compounded, unregulated versions The specific list of patients who should avoid peptides or use extra caution, and why providers need to know it cold If you've ever wondered whether a peptide could actually help you — or wondered what your provider is really weighing before saying yes — this episode gives you the real answer, not the Instagram version. www.YourHealth.Org

Follow us on YouTube, Apple, and Spotify for new Lifespan episodes every 2 weeks.        __________________________________________ In this episode of Lifespan, Dr. David Sinclair, A.O., Ph.D. – Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School and longevity scientist – details how to exercise for a longer, healthier life. Drawing on the latest research, Dr. Sinclair explains why exercising for longevity isn't the same as training for peak athletic performance – including how much exercise you really need, which types matter most as you age, and whether more exercise is always better. He also breaks down the key fitness metrics for longevity – including VO2 max, grip strength, resting heart rate, and heart rate variability (HRV) – and why cardiorespiratory fitness may predict mortality more strongly than smoking, diabetes, or hypertension. Lastly, Dr. Sinclair tackles some of the most common questions about exercise science: What's the best time of day to work out? Should you drink coffee beforehand? Should men and women train differently? How should exercise change as you age? Whether you're just getting started or already exercise regularly, this episode offers a practical, evidence-based guide on what to do to stay healthier for longer.     __________________________________________ Partners of the Lifespan show help us keep this program freely available as an educational resource while also supporting medical research.

Lowering A1C in Prediabetes and Using Less Insulin on a Low-Carb Diet: Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, answers listener questions about blood sugar and insulin. Responding to Rita, whose hemoglobin A1C rose from 5.6 to 5.8, Layla says “glucose hacks” to blunt carb absorption aren't appropriate at that level and recommends a strict very low-carb/keto approach (under 25 grams of total carbs per day), avoiding sugar, starchy vegetables, fruit (except avocado), sweetened beverages, and even alternative sweeteners and low-carb processed products; she suggests retesting A1C after three months and avoiding testing during illness or inflammation. She also addresses Joy, a type 1 diabetic, affirming low-carb eating to reduce insulin needs and weight gain, criticizing an insurance pricing structure that charges more when insulin is used more slowly, and expressing concern about doctors prescribing insulin too quickly for type 2 diabetes instead of dietary intervention.

Just as we noted the abnormally long lifespans back in Genesis 5, before the Flood, so we can't help but note the shrinking lifespans after the Flood here in Genesis 11.

Ep. 239 | Renowned gerontologist and author Dr. Kerry Burnight is passionate about changing the way we think about aging. Growing older isn't a bad thing, she emphasizes, let's look at what gets better as we get older! Early in Dr. Kerry's career, she marveled at how elderly people with the same degree of physical health could be absolutely miserable or happily engaged with life, and she dug into finding out why. Her research revealed four pillars of aging that together make all the difference in the quality of our well-being. Kerry urges us to adopt these practices as soon as we can, because just like with cardiovascular training, the earlier we start, the more benefit we accrue. In fact, the evidence is clear: research shows that people who have a “decline mindset” about aging die an average of seven years earlier than their counterparts with a “growth mindset.” It seems our beliefs about aging can easily become self-fulfilling prophecies.Finding joy in the second half of life involves not only cultivating connection and growth among other things, but also, very importantly, countering our own internalized ageism. Dr. Kerry gives some telling examples of common derogatory thoughts we have about ourselves as we age, and shows us how we can turn this around and step into our power as older people. In a moving testament to the special beauty and authenticity of the elderly, Kerry expresses gratitude for her opportunities as a gerontologist to be infused with the presence of her patients, in all their humility and greater appreciation of friendships, nature, music, art—of life itself. A poignant, lovely, illuminating, and inspiring conversation with someone who lives her talk and is making a meaningful difference in a culture that has lost its way in its approach to aging and caring for elders.

Precision Hormone Health: Testosterone, Menopause, Muscle, Sleep, and Proactive Longevity: Endocrinologist Dr. Florence Comite details her book “Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer” and her precision-medicine approach to proactive longevity. She discusses testosterone decline beginning in the 30s in both sexes, stress-related low T (including in special forces), and testosterone's roles in energy, cognition, motivation, muscle, bone, and chronic disease risk. Comite argues genes are a “draft” and health destiny can be altered through epigenetic-like choices, individualized data, and early monitoring. For women, she emphasizes estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in perimenopause/menopause, preferring bioidentical hormones and criticizing WHI's use of Premarin/Provera and older participants. She covers osteoporosis prevention, muscle as an “organ of longevity,” protein intake, resistance training, continuous glucose monitors for individualized diet, sleep quality tracking via wearables, and selective use of DHEA, pregnenolone, growth hormone pathways, and peptides with attention to sourcing and risk.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with endocrinologist Dr. Florence Comite.

Matt tracks sleep across the human lifespan, from newborn "active sleep" to the shifts of healthy aging. He explores how biological milestones - like puberty, pregnancy, and menopause - impact rest, reframing disruptions as responses to life pressures rather than personal failings.He goes on to examine the roles of trauma, grief, and retirement, highlighting the clinical efficacy of CBT-I. Matt concludes that while sleep naturally evolves, severe insomnia remains treatable and requires supportive care within better-ordered societal structures.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.In a supplement industry where trust is critical, Matt uses podcast supporter Puori.

If anyone tells you that they’re not even a little bit insecure, they’re lying, in denial, or both. It’s a fact of life that we all feel insecure at times - about how we look, behave, our achievements, and whether we are liked by others. In this episode, we examine the psychology behind common insecurities, recognise how we can be our own worst enemies, and consider the ways we can come to accept that we are all flawed, and might not actually need ‘fixing’. We unpack: • The surprising evolutionary benefits that come with insecurity• How our levels of insecurity change throughout our lives• The ‘liking gap’, and why we think others like us less than they do • How being insecure can feed insecurity, in a vicious cycle • Why people pleasing and over confidence are often signs of insecurity • How we can address insecurities that negatively impact our lives Watch on Netflix: HERE Follow Jemma on Instagram: @jemmasbeg Follow the podcast on Instagram: @thatpsychologypodcast Subscribe on Substack: @thepsychologyofyour20s For business: psychologyofyour20s@gmail.com Our favourite sources: https://www.bps.org.uk/research-digest/insecurity-leads-us-underestimate-how-much-others-us https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228079585_Self-Esteem_Development_Across_the_Lifespan https://www.centerforanxiety.org/what-is-hyper-independence-is-it-a-bad-thing/ The Psychology of your 20s is not a substitute for professional mental health help.

Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist in New York City, discusses the growing shift from symptom-only “sick care” to a clinically grounded holistic approach to health and recovery. She argues that self-guided wellness routines can leave gaps when underlying medical issues, mental health conditions, substance use disorders, or trauma remain unaddressed, and emphasizes integrating evidence-based clinical evaluation (including labs and deficiency testing) with lifestyle practices. She explains how treating symptoms in isolation misses connections (e.g., stress, sleep, grief) and defines true holistic care as addressing physical, mental, emotional, relational, environmental, and purpose-related factors without rejecting medical treatment. Key components include consistent movement, individualized nutrition built on basics, nervous system regulation (sleep, nature, breathing, meditation/prayer), meaningful social connection, and a sense of purpose as clinically relevant to resilience.

Dr. Alan Castel, PhD, is a professor of psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and one of the world's foremost experts on human memory and cognitive aging. We discuss what science actually tells us about how to improve our learning ability and memory at any age. We also discuss how memory works, why all planning and imagination about the future is based on the past, false memories, and how to leverage curiosity, emotion, and self-testing retrieval practice to stamp in memories for the long term. We discuss what "superagers"—people who actually improve their cognitive capacity with age—do differently than everyone else. This episode is for anyone interested in the science of memory and tools to maintain and improve your memory across the lifespan.
