Dass man etwas zu Hause vergessen hat, merkt man im Urlaub meistens erst in dem Moment, in dem man es dringend braucht. Gerade Medikamente oder kleine gesundheitliche Vorsorgemaßnahmen werden vor Reisen häufig unterschätzt. Dabei können verlorene Koffer, lange Flüge oder ungewohnte Temperaturen schnell zum Problem werden.In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, warum Medikamente unbedingt ins Handgepäck gehören, welchen Risiken man sich bewusst sein sollte und warum es von Vorteil ist zu wissen, wo man eigentlich hinreist. Es geht um Malaria, Thrombosestrümpfe und Pullover bei 35 Grad.01:10 Medizin ins Handgepäck 04:15 Migräne 08:37 Temperaturwechsel 12:28 Thromboserisiko

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laurie Sehn interviews Drs. Reuben Kapur and Robert Campbell on their latest articles published in Blood. This episode highlights two groundbreaking studies exploring how inflammation drives serious blood and immune-related diseases. In the first interview, Dr. Kapur discusses how inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can both promote and worsen clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), with large-scale human data and mouse models identifying REF1 as a key mediator and potential therapeutic target. The second segment features Dr. Campbell, who explains how heme released during malaria infection activates platelet mTOR signaling, intensifying cerebral malaria and suggesting new avenues for platelet-targeted treatments. Together, the conversations reveal how inflammatory pathways and immune signaling contribute to disease progression while opening the door to novel precision therapies. 

¿Qué es la malaria? ¿Cómo se contrae? ¿Dónde se encuentra el mosquito que da la malaria? ¿Qué pasa en nuestro cuerpo cuando nos da malaria? ¿Cuál es el tratamiento? En este especial de OLR, se responden estas y más preguntas.

In September 2025, the U.S. Department of State, Gilead Sciences, and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria announced a novel partnership to procure and deliver lenacapavir—a groundbreaking twice-yearly injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention—to up to two million people over next three years.  On Tuesday, April 14, the leadership of these three entities convened to discuss the partnership now that doses have begun to arrive in country and have been delivered. Katherine E. Bliss, Director of Immunizations and Health Systems Resilience and Senior Fellow with the CSIS Global Health Policy Center moderated the conversation with Jeremy P. Lewin, Senior Official for the Office of the Under Secretary for Foreign Assistance, Humanitarian Affairs, and Religious Freedom at the U.S. Department of State; Daniel O'Day, Chairman and CEO of Gilead Sciences; and Peter Sands, Executive Director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.  Together they examined how this deal fits into a renewed U.S. strategy for foreign assistance focused on big bets and advancing American innovations around the world, what challenges lie on the horizon as implementation unfolds, and what additional innovations may accelerate scaling this effort. 

This week, Aebhric is again joined by Zach Andrews, who leads the latest episode of CoROM Conversations, which explores the recognition and management of severe malaria in resource-limited and austere environments. Drawing on field-relevant clinical reasoning, the discussion focuses on the progression from uncomplicated to life-threatening disease, with emphasis on Plasmodium falciparum as the primary driver of severe pathology.The conversation highlights the diagnostic challenges faced by remote medics, where laboratory confirmation may be delayed or unavailable, and underscores the importance of clinical pattern recognition, early intervention, and ongoing reassessment. Particular attention is given to complications such as cerebral malaria, severe anaemia, metabolic acidosis, and hypoglycaemia—all of which significantly increase mortality if not rapidly addressed.From a prolonged field care perspective, the episode integrates pragmatic strategies for stabilisation, monitoring, and evacuation decision-making. It reinforces the need for structured patient assessment using frameworks such as CABCDEFGH, along with trending vital signs over time. The discussion ultimately bridges tropical medicine with austere critical care, offering actionable insights for medics operating far from definitive care.Key Learning PointsSevere malaria is a time-critical diagnosis, most commonly associated with Plasmodium falciparum, requiring immediate treatment even before confirmatory testing.Red flag features include altered mental status, respiratory distress, severe anaemia, hypoglycaemia, and shock.Hypoglycaemia is both a complication of malaria and a side effect of treatment (e.g., quinine), necessitating frequent glucose monitoring.In austere environments, clinical diagnosis often precedes laboratory confirmation, requiring high suspicion in febrile patients with travel or endemic exposure.Fluid management must be cautious, balancing the risks of hypovolaemia and pulmonary oedema.Prolonged care requires integration of nursing principles (HITMAN, SHEEP VOMIT) to prevent secondary deterioration.Early administration of parenteral antimalarials (e.g., artesunate where available) is critical to survival.Evacuation planning should be initiated early, but delays must not postpone life-saving interventions.Timestamps00:00 – IntroductionOverview of the case and relevance to austere medicine02:30 – Pathophysiology of Severe MalariaMechanisms of microvascular obstruction and organ dysfunction06:00 – Clinical PresentationRecognising early vs severe disease in the field10:30 – Assessment FrameworksApplying structured approaches (CABCDEFGH, CPRO, BEAST)15:00 – Management PrioritiesAntimalarials, glucose, fluids, and airway considerations20:30 – Complications and MonitoringCerebral malaria, acidosis, anaemia, and respiratory failure25:00 – Prolonged Field Care ConsiderationsNursing care, documentation, and trending30:00 – Evacuation and Decision-MakingWhen and how to move the patient33:00 – Key Takeaways and Closing ThoughtsClinical Pearls / Take-Home MessagesTreat first, confirm later: In suspected severe malaria, delays in treatment increase mortality.Check glucose early and often: Hypoglycaemia can be rapidly fatal and easily missed.Think beyond fever: Altered mental status or respiratory changes may be the first sign of severe disease.Your greatest tool is reassessment: Trends in vital signs are more valuable than single data points.Good nursing care saves lives: Positioning, hydration, hygiene, and monitoring are critical in prolonged care environments.Suggested ReferencesWorld Health Organization.

Malaria continues to claim young lives across northern Uganda, with districts in Lango among the hardest hit. Despite ongoing prevention and treatment efforts, hospitals remain overwhelmed and many children are still arriving too late to be saved.This report follows the story of one mother who lost her four-year-old son, and takes us inside Lira Regional Referral Hospital, where health workers are battling severe cases every day.As the world marks World Malaria Day, we also look at emerging solutions like gene drive technology, an approach scientists hope could one day change the course of malaria transmission.

On today's episode, we talk about an incredibly deadly creature, which has determined the course of nearly all human history just by existing: The Mosquito. How has the mosquito determined the course of war, and what wars might have gone differently if it didn't exist?

In this episode, we're joined by Dr Kate Wylie, GP and Executive Director of Doctors for the Environment Australia, and a long-time friend of the show. One of Australia's leading voices on climate and health, Kate helps us unpack the United Nations' Global Water Bankruptcy report and what it means for all of us.Put simply: we are running out of water. We're using more than we have in supply, so much that in many places we're pushing past the point of recovery and can't repay our debts. Driven by climate change, over-extraction, and pollution, this growing ‘water bankruptcy' is fuelling food and water insecurity, disease, and deepening global inequities.Closer to home, we explore what this looks like in Australia, from the declining Murray-Darling to pressures on the Great Artesian Basin, and why this crisis is as much about public health as it is about the environment.A sharp, urgent conversation about one of the defining challenges of our time and the role we all must play in protecting the resource that underpins life itself.In this episode, we discuss:Kate's background and her work at the intersection of human and planetary healthThe UN's Global Water Bankruptcy report and Kate's recent InSight+ article outlining what this means for us in AustraliaOur unsustainable water use and the industries driving the greatest extractionThe deep inequities of water insecurity, with the Global South bearing the greatest burdenKey health concerns, including unsafe drinking water, food insecurity, and the mental health effects of droughtRising risks of vector-borne diseases like Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Ross River VirusThe dual extremes of drought and flooding, and their impact on food systems and livelihoodsAustralia's unique challenges as the driest inhabited continent, and the need for more sustainable agricultureGrowing strain on critical systems, from the Murray-Darling Basin to the Great Artesian Basin, and flow-on effects like South Australia's algal bloomThe hidden water and energy costs of modern technology, including AI and cloud computing, and why we can't ‘tech' our way out of thisThe critical role of health professionals in advocating for climate and water securityWhy climate and environmental health must be embedded in medical educationThe vital work of Doctors for the Environment Australia and their latest advocacy efforts, including an open letter to Australian governments calling for an end to our dependence on global oil—add your name to the submission hereTo view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.Please support our work and enable us to deliver more content by buying us a coffee or becoming a member of Athletes for Nature.Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, subscribe to this podcast, and share this episode with your friends and family.

On this episode of the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery podcast, Jennie and Dianne are joined by author Gigi Berardi to talk about "Bianca's Cure", her fact-driven historical novel about Bianca Capello, who in real life was famed for her beauty, but Gigi's Bianca is a scientist centuries ahead of her time,  hunting a malaria cure with the herb artemisia. Malaria, took the lives of many in Italy in the 14th century, including several members of one of Italy's most famed royal families, the Medicis. The same family Bianca married into. When her husband, the Grand Duke Francesco de' Medici died, they found arsenic in his bones. And Bianca? Her body was never found. Denied a Medici tomb, she likely vanished into an unmarked grave.Listen in for a fascinating discussion of medicine, politics, passion, and mysteries beyond some of Italy's most Ordinary Extraordinary graves.Purchase your copy of "Bianca's Cure" here: https://gigiberardi.com/Need an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast tee, hoodie or mug?

What does it really take to lift millions out of poverty and prevent needless deaths?In this special compilation episode, 17 past guests — including economists, nonprofit founders, and policy advisors — share their most powerful and actionable insights from the front lines of global health and development. You'll hear about the critical need to boost agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa, the staggering impact of lead poisoning on children in low-income countries, and the social forces that contribute to high neonatal mortality rates in India.What's so striking is how some of the most effective interventions sound almost too simple to work: banning certain pesticides, replacing thatch roofs, or identifying village “influencers” to spread health information.Full transcript and links to learn more: https://80k.info/ghdChapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Luisa's intro (00:00:58)Development consultant Karen Levy on why pushing for “sustainable” programmes isn't as good as it sounds (00:02:15)Economist Dean Spears on the social forces and gender inequality that contribute to neonatal mortality in Uttar Pradesh (00:06:55)Charity founder Sarah Eustis-Guthrie on what we can learn from the massive failure of PlayPumps (00:14:33)Economist Rachel Glennerster on how randomised controlled trials are just one way to better understand tricky development problems (00:19:05)Data scientist Hannah Ritchie on why improving agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa is critical to solving global poverty (00:24:36)Charity founder Lucia Coulter on the huge, neglected upsides of reducing lead exposure (00:47:48)Malaria expert James Tibenderana on using gene drives to wipe out the species of mosquitoes that cause malaria (00:53:11)Charity founder Varsha Venugopal on using village gossip to get kids their critical immunisations (01:04:14)Rachel Glennerster on solving tough global problems by creating the right incentives for innovation (01:11:31)Karen Levy on when governments should pay for programmes instead of NGOs (01:26:51)Open Philanthropy lead Alexander Berger on declining returns in global health, and finding and funding the most cost-effective interventions (01:29:40)GiveWell researcher James Snowden on making funding decisions with tricky moral weights (01:34:44)Lucia Coulter on “hits-based giving” approaches to funding global health and development projects (01:43:01)Rachel Glennerster on whether it's better to fix problems in education with small-scale interventions versus systemic reforms (01:48:12)GiveDirectly cofounder Paul Niehaus on why it's so important to give aid recipients a choice in how they spend their money (01:51:09)Sarah Eustis-Guthrie on whether more charities should scale back or shut down, and aligning incentives with beneficiaries (01:56:12)James Tibenderana on why we need loads better data to harness the power of AI to eradicate malaria (02:11:22)Lucia Coulter on rapidly scaling a light-touch intervention to more countries (02:20:14)Karen Levy on why pre-policy plans are so great at aligning perspectives (02:32:47)Rachel Glennerster on the value we get from doing the right RCTs well (02:40:04)Economist Mushtaq Khan on really drilling down into why “context matters” for development work (02:50:13)GiveWell cofounder Elie Hassenfeld on contrasting GiveWell's approach with the subjective wellbeing approach of Happier Lives Institute (02:57:24)James Tibenderana on whether people actually use antimalarial bed nets for fishing — and why that's the wrong thing to focus on (03:05:30)Karen Levy on working with governments to get big results (03:10:53)Leah Utyasheva on how a simple intervention reduced suicide in Sri Lanka by 70% (03:17:38)Karen Levy on working with academics to get the best results on the ground (03:29:03)James Tibenderana on the value of working with local researchers (03:32:15)Lucia Coulter on getting buy-in from both industry and government (03:35:05)Alexander Berger on reasons neartermist work makes sense even by longtermist standards (03:39:26)Economist Shruti Rajagopalan on the key skills to succeed in public policy careers, and seeing economics in everything (03:47:42)J-PAL lead Claire Walsh on her career advice for young people who want to get involved in global health and development (03:55:20)Audio engineering: Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, Simon Monsour, and Dominic ArmstrongContent editing: Katy Moore and Milo McGuireMusic: CORBITCoordination, transcriptions, and web: Katy Moore

“Malaria is an all of society challenge. When you look at the environmental issues, addressing the breeding sites for mosquitoes, it's an all of society issue…it is not just the responsibility of the heads of state.”Daniel Dadzie hears from Joy Phumaphi, Executive Secretary of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance, or ALMA.ALMA was founded with the goal of eradicating malaria in Africa by 2030. Now, Joy Phumaphi concedes this is not going to happen. In fact, she says only a few countries across the continent will hit this target, thanks to a “perfect storm” of climate change, insecticide and drug resistance, spiralling costs and cuts in aid. She also highlights the risk that private sector development projects can create breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

Providing primary health care in a war zone presents some extraordinary challenges. This presentation delves into the complex world of healthcare delivery amid conflict and chaos.

Malaria är en av världens mest envisa sjukdomar. Trots nya mediciner och behandlingar fortsätter den att slå tillbaka – vissa behandlingar är svåra att använda, farliga, eller tappar snabbt sin effekt när parasiten blir resistent. Varför är malaria så svår att besegra? Parasitologen Ellen Bushell berättar om sjukdomens komplexitet och om de metoder som faktiskt fungerar. Hon förklarar vad forskarna har lärt sig, och varför det fortfarande finns hopp om att en dag vinna kampen mot malaria.Foto: Mattias Petterson/UmU. Hosted on Acast.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-19-2026: Dr. Dawn warns that stacking multiple gummy supplements can cause GI distress from sugar alcohols like xylitol, sorbitol, and mannitol, with symptoms persisting up to three days after stopping. She recommends limiting sugar alcohol intake to 6mg daily and switching to non-gummy formulations if experiencing bloating, cramping, or diarrhea. An emailer asks about finding treatment for abdominophrenic dyssynergia, a condition causing progressive abdominal distension after meals. Dr. Dawn recommends using AI search to locate physical therapy centers offering EMG-guided biofeedback, and suggests ruling out SIBO and low stomach acid. Researchers at the American Chemical Society have created modified psilocybin variants designed to release the active compound more slowly, potentially reducing hallucinogenic effects while maintaining therapeutic benefits. Dr. Dawn expresses concern that such patentable alternatives could prevent legalization of natural psilocybin for addiction treatment. Japanese researchers used PET imaging to discover that ketamine rapidly relieves treatment-resistant depression by altering the distribution of AMPAR glutamate receptors in the brain. Within two weeks, patients' receptor patterns normalized to resemble healthy controls, with enduring changes tracking symptom improvement. A study found CBD and CBG improved fatty liver disease markers in mice by increasing phosphocreatine energy reserves and reactivating cellular recycling centers. Dr. Dawn notes the compounds were injected directly into the abdominal cavity, making the results impossible to translate to oral consumption, an example of headlines exceeding reality. King's College London research found that root canal treatment for apical periodontitis improved blood sugar, cholesterol, and inflammation markers over two years. Dr. Dawn advises regular flossing and periodically tapping teeth with a metal instrument to detect painful teeth needing attention. An emailer asks about Crohn's disease and the gut-brain axis. Dr. Dawn explains that the vagus nerve serves as a bidirectional highway between brain and gut, with gut bacteria producing serotonin that affects mood, while stress increases intestinal permeability and worsens inflammation. In medical news of the weird, scientists discovered that malaria parasites contain tiny iron crystals powered by hydrogen peroxide—the same fuel used in rockets. This first-ever biological self-propelled nanoparticle could inspire new approaches to powering medical nanobots.

Is chronic babesiosis finally getting the scientific attention it deserves?In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Geoff Dow, CEO & President of Sixty Degrees Pharmaceuticals, to discuss a groundbreaking clinical trial targeting chronic babesiosis — a common and often overlooked Lyme co-infection. Originally developed for malaria prevention, the drug Tafenoquine (brand name Kodatef®) is now being studied for its potential to treat persistent Babesia infections and Lyme-related fatigue.They explore the science behind red blood cell parasites, how Babesia differs from malaria, why chronic babesiosis remains controversial, and what makes this new trial the first FDA-reviewed IND study focused on chronic disease. If you or a loved one struggle with Lyme-related fatigue, relapsing babesiosis, or limited treatment options, this conversation offers cautious optimism and a closer look at the future of targeted therapies.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction3:10 From Malaria Drug Development to Lyme Co-Infections6:45 How Babesia Infects Red Blood Cells and Causes Fatigue10:40 Why Chronic Babesiosis Is Still Controversial14:50 No FDA-Approved Drugs Specifically for Babesiosis18:30 New Clinical Trials for Chronic and Relapsing Babesiosis24:00 Measuring Fatigue as a Primary Endpoint in Chronic DiseaseResources Mentioned:Sixty Degrees Pharmaceuticals - https://www.sixtydegreespharma.comKodatef® (Tafenoquine) Information - Available via company website aboveMount Sinai (Clinical Trial Site) - https://www.mountsinai.orgYale Babesiosis Case Series (Referenced Study) - https://medicine.yale.eduMedical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

The cage breaks open. Caravaggio breaks with it.Chained in a torture chamber beneath the fortress, Caravaggio faces the Grand Master one last time. Faith against flesh. Obedience against desire. What follows is an escape down a fortress wall, a boat in the dark, and a fugitive painter running not toward freedom but toward the only thing he has left.Act Three is the fall. Brutal. Beautiful. Inevitable.Sicily. Caravaggio paints like a man on fire. In Syracuse, a burial. In Messina, a nativity. Each canvas more desperate than the last. Each one a confession he cannot say out loud. The genius is still there. The man holding the brush is disappearing.Back in Rome, the news arrives. Lena. The woman whose face launched his greatest work. Gone. Caravaggio learns what it costs to leave someone behind in a city that devours the unprotected.Cardinal Del Monte makes his final play. A pardon. A real one. Signed by the Pope himself. But the pardon needs a delivery and Caravaggio needs to stay alive long enough to receive it.Naples. A prison cell. Malaria. Chains. The Grand Master finds him one last time. Two men who could never say what they meant finally say it. It is too late for both of them.Then a swamp. Bandits. A boiling sun. A beach. A boy. Two nuns. And the Tyrrhenian coast, where the greatest painter of his generation reaches for the light one final time.The pardon arrives. The man does not.Act Three is reckoning. Loss. Grace. The moment the fuse runs out.What you see in the art, you will find in the artist. What you see in the artist, you will find in the man.Cast Dennis Kleinman · Narrator Craig Parker · Caravaggio Dan Lauria · Cardinal Del Monte Bruce Davison · Alof de Wignacourt Shaan Sharma · Stefano della Croce Catherine Lidstone · Lena Sarah Elmaleh · Maria Brendan Bradley · Annibale Carracci Noah James · Ranuccio Tomassoni Josh Sterling · Ottavio Tomassoni Zeke Alton · Giovan Tomassoni Nick Monteleone · Mancini Matt Curtin · Toppa Bjorn Johnson · Pope Paul V Ray Abruzzo · Pope Clement VIIIWritten by Richard VetereExecutive Produced by Jack Levy, Shaan Sharma, and Mark KnellTable Read is a Manifest Media production.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our Titan of Science this week is leading light in the field of malaria, Jane Carlton. The first to sequence the genome of malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax, she also helped sequence the deadlier Plasmodium falciparum. Jane tells Chris Smith the ins and outs of malaria, her journey to become Director of the Malaria Research Institute at Johns Hopkins, and how stealing her brother's genetics textbook when she was just 8 years old led her to where she is today...

This week on Death is Everything we look at the creation of the Panama Canal, one of the world's greatest feats of engineering, and the sizable human toll that went into its construction. We give our gratitude to the many thousands of laborers that died braving the snakes, mosquitoes, diseases, explosions, and countless workplace and environmental dangers to bring us this crucial piece of infrastructure. The next time you make a purchase made possible through the seemingly magical advances of global shipping, give a thought to the sacrifices of the many people who have made our way of life possible. Then stick around to hear an update on the state of the Darien Gap, the treacherous stretch of land that serves as a route for immigrants looking for a better life.

Holy smokes and saints alive I never thought this would happen to me! What's that you ask? Oh, not much... I just happen to be lucky enough to co-host a podcast with the most international dude in the entire Northern hemisphere. Mr. "Jetset" Randy Woods himself is over in the cradle of humanity sharing his vast, VAST knowledge of sound, noises, ambience, acoustics, and such with a very wide array of wide-eyed (and almost certainly completely starstruck) Zambians. When he gets back, who knows if he'll carry on debasing himself by talking to me. We can only speculate. This week's episode covers a Freddie solo track that was reworked for the Queen Forever compilation, released in 2014. It's the much rearranged "Love Kills" (Ballad)If Kev were to title this podcast, he'd probably call it “Love Kills”, or possibly “So does Malaria.”NOTE: Skip forward to 6:19 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.The music at the end of the episode is the sensational "Bode's Galaxy" from Absofunkinlutely's red album, Blues Kid City.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Sheena: Hi Dr C! Hope you and your team are well. I've been hearing a lot about colostrum lately and it piqued my interest. Can you speak a little about it? Do you use it? Is there a brand you would recommend? Is it safe for anyone? Who should avoid it? Side effects? I take a probiotic everyday, can colostrum replace this?? Looking forward to hearing your response. Thanks in advance!                                                                                                                                                         Frankie: Hi Stephen, My name is Frankie Im 21 years old, and I wanted to follow up from Episode 3382, where you mentioned my symptoms could be connected to gut issues, low vitamin D, magnesium, metals, or GERD. Since then, I followed a strict LPR diet for about two months  no gluten, coffee, alcohol, peanuts, oats, onions, garlic, broccoli, beans, etc. My LPR symptoms improved by around 70%, and while I still have some mucus in my throat, its nowhere near as potent as before. During and after the protocol, I focused on rebuilding my gut with some gut-rebuilding supplements and slowly reintroducing foods. Its now been about three months since finishing the protocol, and Ive gained around 14 pounds. I also still deal with loose stool almost every day, which hasnt improved much. It’s honestly shocked me because Im very dialed in with both my food and workouts, yet the weight gain and digestive changes still happened. I wanted to get your thoughts on what direction to take from here. I havent run the Big 5 protocol since Im based in Canada, and it would end up costing quite a bit more with shipping and exchange rates. Also, I just wanted to mention its surprising how many young people my age are struggling with digestive and gut related issues. Its becoming way too common. Thanks again for all the work you do, and I hope you have a great day I listen to you every morning. Frankie     Gary: Hi Dr. Cabral. Im 49, male & over the last 4 years taken a deep interest in my health. I had cerebral malaria (2003) & as a result developed essential tremor both hands. Listened to 2 podcasts & working on noticeable triggers like ltd caffeine & alcohol. It hasnt got worse, but really is there any way to reverse it? Neurologist says surgery has no guarantee.  I would value the truth & if it were your wife what you would do please. So much life ahead 🙏 (PS. Partner is an IHP so DESTRESS at the heart of our approach) we want to do EVERYTHING we can. Thank you     Sienna: Hi Dr. Cabral - so excited about your new Pea Protein, got great feedback from the support team, however would love your response. Pea Protein safe for kids? Since DNS is I would approach it in same way, Dr. AI says generally kids get enough from food so not recommended… Do you give this to your daughters in same way you have it? Ie a little more protein in smoothies *daily* or just in baked goods like pancakes occasionally. Thank you! Happy holidays      Anonymous: What are some ways to improve gut motility, I'm already on a supplement program and ginger tea.

In the past decade there has been little progress in lowering malaria cases, with over half a million people still dying from the mosquito-borne disease every year. We look at the big ideas and innovations of the future that could help us eliminate malaria once and for all. What would happen if we got rid of the insect responsible for spreading the malaria parasite? Claudia heads to Imperial College London where she is joined by Dr Federica Bernardini and their 120 colonies of mosquitos to find out how revolutionary genetic technologies are aiming to do just that.Picking up on Imperial's work in the field is Principal Investigator at Target Malaria in Uganda, Dr Jonathan Kayondo. His job is to understand what it would mean to release these modified mosquitos into the wild.Looking at the existing tools that need levelling up is Dr Rob Moon, from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, and Dr James Tibenderana, Chief Executive at the Malaria Consortium. Alongside Claudia they look at the next generation of vaccines and the importance of accessible rapid diagnostic tests.But is all this going to be enough to eliminate malaria? Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producer: Katie Tomsett

Malaria is still the third biggest killer on the planet and despite decades of serious investment it's a disease that is still very much with us. But that investment is starting to pay off - 2025 has been a big year for new ways of tackling the disease.This week we're reflecting on the progress made in 2025 – but also asking what impact unprecedented cuts to global health funding might have on whether children living in hot and humid regions of the world contract malaria. Our expert guide is James Tibenderana, an epidemiologist from Uganda. He is Chief Executive at the Malaria Consortium, an organisation that advises governments on best practice for tackling malaria as well as delivering their own programmes. We also hear from Nigeria, the country with the highest rates of malaria in the world. Dr Onyinye Echedike-Elekwa at The University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital on the south coast of the country tells us how it's been in the clinic this year. The drug known as GamLun marks a huge breakthrough in the treatment of malaria. Abdoulaye Djimdé is Professor of Parasitology and Mycology at the Malaria Research and Training Centre University of Bamako, Mali.
