Podcasts about Malnutrition

I recently had an ApoB test and am surprised that it isn't lower than it is.  Can you explain?I have an ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm.  How can I keep it from enlarging?Why are you against whole-body scans? Aren't they helpful?Can I take magnesium L-threonate while also taking magnesium glycinate?

Will Truheight vitamins really make your kids grow?Where can I learn more about complementary medicine and nutrition?The balls of my feet are sore along with my toes. Is this a vitamin deficiency?

Malnutrition should be defined as any diet that results in metabolic derangement. Few Americans suffer from lack of access to calories. But we are unhealthy, with metabolic and chronic diseases increasing steadily. These are true statements, but how we should respond to them individually and societally is controversial. Peter Ballerstedt ("Sodfather of the Ruminati”) earned his bachelor's and master's degrees at the University of Georgia and his doctorate at the University of Kentucky. He was the forage extension specialist at Oregon State University from 1986 to 1992. He worked in the forage seed industry from 2011 until 2023. He is a member of several national and international scientific societies, participates in related global initiatives, and is a Past-President of the American Forage and Grassland Council. Peter's personal experience has led him to re-examine human diet and health. What he has learned doesn't agree with the advice given for the past several decades. Peter is an advocate for ruminant animal agriculture and the essential role of animal source foods in the human diet. He strives to build bridges between producers, consumers, and researchers across a wide variety of scientific disciplines – increasing awareness of metabolic health and ruminant animal agriculture's essential role in social, economic, and ecological sustainability. Peter has spoken at many different events in the US and internationally. Many of his presentations are available on YouTube. Peter and Nancy live in western Oregon (northwestern USA) with their three dogs, Conor, Noni, and Iris.

If your spiritual health crumbled when the last storm hit, Pastor D'wayne Louard reveals the 3 clear signs you're running on empty and the one divine technology that changes everything.SHOW NOTESEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Prayer is Responsibility: Stop treating prayer as a religious routine; embrace it as the conversational responsibility God gave you to enforce His will on earth. The Technology of Prayer: Use prayer as a "technology" to manifest that which is "settled in heaven" into your immediate earthly circumstances. Plug In Before the Storm: Spiritual maturity is built by making the decision to follow Jesus and build your foundation before the inevitable afflictions and storms arrive. Intimacy is the Static Filter: Tune out the world's noise by consistently drawing closer to God through His Word and prayer, making His voice unmistakable The Covering is Intentionality: Spiritual covering for your family is directly tied to the intentionality and consistency of your daily prayer life.

Diabetes is a condition in which the body cannot regulate blood sugar properly. There are different types of diabetes, each with unique causes and treatment needs. Type 1 diabetes usually occurs in children or young people when the pancreas stops producing insulin completely, making lifelong insulin injections necessary. Type 2 diabetes, more common in adults but increasingly seen in children, occurs when insulin is produced but does not work effectively due to insulin resistance. It may initially be controlled through diet, exercise, and tablets, but many patients eventually require insulin. Gestational diabetes typically develops during pregnancy and often disappears after delivery, yet both the mother and child remain at higher risk of developing diabetes later. Secondary diabetes can occur due to pancreatic infections, steroid use, alcohol, or chronic pancreatitis etc. Another form, known as NODAT (New Onset Diabetes After Transplant), has also been identified. Malnutrition-related diabetes (Type 5) arises when poor maternal nutrition during pregnancy prevents proper development of the child's pancreas, leading to early beta cell failure in adult life. A condition called “double diabetes” is also seen when children with Type 1 diabetes develop the features of Type 2 due to obesity. Diagnosis for Type 1DM often involves a C-peptide test, which measures how much insulin the body is still making. Importantly, early and strict sugar control provides lasting benefits, known as the Legacy Effect and Good Glycemic Memory, helping prevent complications of the kidney, heart, eyes, nerves, and other organs in subsequent years of life. Good glucose control also keeps mitochondria healthy, ensuring better long-term health. In addition, new GLP-1 analogs such as Tirzepatide and Semaglutide have shown benefits for weight reduction and organ protection, though they should only be taken under medical guidance.

Dr Errol Visser, specialist in emergency medicine and hyperbaric physician, speaks to Lester Kiewit about his recent volunteer visits to remote Northern Cape communities, where he has witnessed the devastating effects of chronic childhood stunting. He explains how long-term malnutrition during early childhood is causing permanent damage to brain and body development, affecting learning ability, school performance, and future health. Dr Visser also discusses the broader social and economic consequences, why stunting remains a largely hidden crisis, and calls for urgent national action to address food security, maternal and child health, and structural inequality.

The SA Human Rights Commission in the Eastern Cape has subpoenaed Premier Oscar Mabuyane to appear before them to explain the deepening crisis of child malnutrition in the province. This after reports emerged THIS WEEK that 70 Eastern Cape children have died so far this year due to severe acute malnutrition, a situation the rights watchdog describes as "a shameful symbol of a national disaster". The Commission has also subpoenaed other stakeholders to detail how they are addressing the issue, which has long been a crisis not just in this province but countrywide. In 2024, Eastern Cape Province lost 107 children to malnutrition, the third highest in the country after KwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo. Many households face chronic food insecurity, lacking regular access to safe, sufficient and nutritious meals. This is compounded by high poverty and unemployment rates. To tell us more Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Dr. Eileen Carter, the SA Human Rights Commission's Eastern Cape Provincial Manager

Une loi votée en décembre 2024 autorise à nouveau l'exploitation, l'extraction et la transformation de métaux, revenant ainsi sur la loi de 2017 qui l'interdisait. La lutte de plus de dix ans des défenseurs de l'environnement a été balayée par Nayib Bukele et sa majorité au Parlement. Dans les zones qui pourraient être concernées par cette industrie, l'inquiétude grandit. Les populations locales ont notamment peur que cette industrie les prive d'eau potable et pollue les nappes phréatiques, comme cela a déjà été le cas par le passé. Alice Campaignolle s'est rendue dans le département de Cabañas, au Salvador. En Haïti, les conditions de détention dans certaines prisons sont alarmantes Malnutrition, manque d'eau potable, absence d'heures de pause... Les conditions de vie dans les centres pénitentiaires haïtiens sont déplorables, notamment dans la prison civile de Jacmel, dans le sud-est. À la fin du mois de juillet, près de 14 détenus y sont décédés. L'Institut mobile d'éducation démocratique a récemment publié un rapport accablant sur les prisons en Haïti, incluant celle de Jacmel. Un dossier signé Peterson Luxama, correspondant de RFI à Port-au-Prince. Les forces de l'ordre haïtiennes sont accusées de l'assassinat de deux femmes Dans une tribune écrite par Michel Legros et publiée par Alterpresse, la PNH, la Police national d'Haïti, est accusée d'avoir intercepté, battu et assassiné Morelda et Modeline Louis. Les faits se sont déroulés le 22 août entre la route de l'aéroport et le Carrefour Gérald Bataille. Alors qu'elles allaient chercher leurs enfants, les deux femmes ont été interpellées et contrôlées par une patrouille d'hommes armés, comme cela est désormais courant en Haïti. Le journaliste précise qu'« un drone aurait observé cette scène et alerté un char blindé ». Soupçonnées de connivence avec ces gangs, Morelda et Modeline auraient été interpellées à leur arrivée sur l'autoroute, « battues, torturées, puis livrées à une Toyota de la PNH, non immatriculée, qui les a emmenées pour les exécuter. Disons le mot : pour les assassiner », juge Michel Gros, pour qui « ce drame illustre la terreur et l'impunité dans certaines zones, frappées par la violence des bandits et la cruauté de certains policiers ».  Aux États-Unis, Chicago et Baltimore se lancent dans une guerre ouverte contre Donald Trump Après Washington DC, les deux villes démocrates s'opposent fermement à l'envoi de troupes de la garde nationale sur leur sol, comme annoncé par le président américain.  Ce week-end, le Washington Post a révélé que le Pentagone planifiait depuis des semaines un déploiement militaire à Chicago, et ce, dès le mois de septembre, au nom de la lutte contre la criminalité, l'immigration et le sans-abrisme. Le quotidien rapporte les propos du président américain : « Chicago est un vrai désastre. Vous avez un maire incompétent. » La réaction du maire de la troisième ville la plus peuplée des États-Unis ne s'est pas fait attendre. Cité par le Chicago Sun Times, Brandon Johnson a déclaré qu'il évaluait « toutes les options juridiques possibles pour protéger les habitants de Chicago d'une intervention fédérale inconstitutionnelle ». Pour le procureur général de l'Illinois, Kwame Raoul, la menace de Trump est « hypocrite et performative », surtout au vu des récentes baisses de budgets pour lutter contre la violence. Le Washington Post constate les mêmes tensions entre Trump et le gouverneur du Maryland Le président américain a déclaré son réseau Truth Social que Baltimore était « hors de contrôle » et « ravagée par la criminalité ». Le gouverneur Wes Moore lui a rétorqué dimanche, sur CBS News, qu'il n'autoriserait pas l'intervention de la Garde nationale, une intervention qualifiée ici aussi d'« inconstitutionnelle ». À lire aussiDonald Trump arme la Garde nationale à Washington et menace Baltimore et Chicago Le Canada envisage aussi de déployer des troupes, mais en Ukraine En visite surprise à Kiev ce dimanche, le premier ministre canadien Mark Carney a réaffirmé le soutien « indéfectible d'Ottawa » aux Ukrainiens. « Le Canada se tiendra toujours aux côtés de l'Ukraine. » Voici les paroles de Mark Carney, rapportées dans les colonnes de La Presse. Le Premier ministre canadien s'exprimait lors d'une cérémonie sur la place Sophia à Kiev pour la fête de l'Indépendance ukrainienne. La Presse décrit une rencontre avec Volodymyr Zelensky dans « une atmosphère solennelle ». Dans son discours, le Premier ministre canadien a déclaré ne pas exclure l'envoi de troupes canadiennes « pour garantir la sécurité de l'Ukraine contre l'agression russe en cas d'accord de paix », rajoutant que « Vladimir Poutine ne peut jamais être digne de confiance ». Le Globe and Mail revient sur les détails des 2 milliards de dollars promis lors du sommet du G7 en Alberta, en juin. Cet argent va financer l'achat et la fabrication de drones, munitions et véhicules blindés, mais aussi l'aide médicale d'urgence, l'hébergement et la lutte contre les attaques numériques.  SpaceX a dû annuler in extremis un vol test de sa méga fusée Starship dimanche soir  Ce serait dû à un problème avec les systèmes au sol, c'est ce qu'a annoncé SpaceX sur X. « Il faudra donc patienter encore un peu avant de voir le 10e vol d'essai de la méga fusée Starship », résume Space.com. « Starship est la fusée la plus grande et la plus puissante jamais construite », détaille le média spécialisé. Elle mesure plus de 122 mètres de haut une fois complètement chargée. C'est la « pièce maîtresse de la vision d'Elon Musk pour envoyer les premiers humains sur Mars, dès 2026, selon USA Today. Elle est également essentielle aux plans de la NASA visant à renvoyer des astronautes sur la lune », dès 2027. Une date « irréaliste, voire impossible à respecter », considère CBS News, surtout après les « trois échecs » de cette année, qualifiés de « catastrophiques » par la chaîne de télévision américaine. SpaceX a annoncé qu'une nouvelle fenêtre de lancement s'ouvrirait ce lundi soir à 19h30 heure locale.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Ramona Wallace.

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.

In this episode of The Healthy Project Podcast, host Corey Dion Lewis talks with Pamela Oren-Artzi, COO and co-founder of GRIN, a digital oral health platform reimagining how care is delivered for underserved communities. Pam shares her journey from technology leader to health innovator, the challenges of addressing oral care deserts, and how GRIN's accessible, affordable tools are transforming the way providers reach patients—no broadband required.We explore why oral health must be recognized as a core social driver of health, the connection between oral disease and chronic conditions like heart disease and diabetes, and the ripple effects that poor access to dental care can have on individuals, families, and the economy. Pam also offers valuable insights for health tech innovators on how to build equity into products from the ground up.

“The worst-case scenario of famine is currently playing out in the Gaza Strip.” That was the conclusion of a July 29 report by the leading global authority on food security, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC). The report found that more than one in three people in Gaza (39 percent) are now going days at a time without eating. More than 500,000 people—nearly a quarter of the population—are enduring famine-like conditions. Malnutrition rates are skyrocketing, and deaths from acute malnutrition are mounting. This is the direct result of Israel's policy of preventing sufficient food from entering Gaza. Now, as images of emaciated children flash across screens around the world, will that be enough to generate the political will in Israel, the United States, and Europe to change course? Alternatively, how much worse can this get? Joining me to discuss the ongoing famine and humanitarian crisis is Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, the CEO of Mercy Corps, a major international humanitarian NGO with ongoing operations in Gaza. She explains why famine has taken hold, what can be done to immediately end it, and why this crisis is very much at a tipping point.

Lindsey M. Locks, ScD, MPH is an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Health Sciences (Sargent College) and Global Health (School of Public Health) at Boston University. She directs the Global Nutrition Lab and currently serves as Chair of the Global Nutrition Council, one of two scientific councils within the American Society for Nutrition. Dr. Locks is a nutritional epidemiologist who collaborates to co-design and evaluate high-impact interventions aimed at improving the nutrition of children and families living in high-poverty settings, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

UN-backed experts – the IPC - say the "worst-case scenario of famine is currently playing out" in Gaza and that there is mounting evidence that widespread malnutrition is driving a rapid rise in hunger-related deaths among the 2.1 million Palestinians there. Aid worker Olga Cherevko shares what she's witnessed on the ground and Claudia is also joined by specialist Dr Marko Kerac to understand the health impacts of malnutrition and what interventions are urgently needed. In a world-first the UK have begun to rollout a vaccine for gonorrhoea, an infection that if left untreated can lead to infertility. We ask what impact this vaccine might have on a global level. The WHO has issued an urgent call for action to tackle mosquito-borne Chikungunya virus that has seen increasing cases since the beginning of the year. Professor Trudie Lang explains how the hardest hit countries are responding. Using virtual reality, scientists have discovered that our immune system kicks into action at just the sight of a sick person. Matt and Claudia look at the unusual methods used to understand how our brains prepare for contact with a pathogen.

What is sarcopenia and why is this such an important topic for every woman over 40?  That is the topic of conversation today.  What is Sarcopoenia? Sarcopenia is to muscle what osteoporosis is to bone.  Significant loss of skeletal muscle mass and or muscle strength. Sarcopenia is tied to anabolic resistance in midlife women, making it harder to gain lean muscle growth or maintenance after 40. Older adults - both men and women - have to work harder to gain lean muscle mass.  Women have less overall body mass and muscle to begin with and more dramatic reductions in estrogen at menopause, than men experience loss of testosterone.  The key stimulus for muscle protein synthesis, will suffer more from loss of strength and mass if they aren't carefully offsetting it with planned and progressive resistance training.  For women, estrogen protects muscle and bone. We need and use testosterone which is the most abundant hormone in the female body - but it's the decline in estrogen that makes the difference in muscle preservation. What Contributes to Sarcopenia?  Malnutrition. Combined with sarcopenia, it's a predictor of all-cause mortality than sarcopenia alone.  The United States is one of the most overfed and undernourished countries in the world. We're not eating well enough to sustain health.  Sarcopenia is 100% avoidable.  How Do You Measure Sarcopenia? Strength Fat free mass and height Online calculators  There are physical tests or measures that include grip strength or calf circumference.  Women didn't measure or track their skeletal muscle mass decades ago to know where it was at peak. It's harder to say how much mass or strength you've lost.  The Surprising Statistics on What is Sarcopenia On average, muscle loss occurs 3-8% each decade starting at 30. That CAN accelerate during menopause transition. It isn't associated with loss of estrogen driving skeletal muscle protein synthesis down.

What is Sarcopenia: The New Glossary Osteosarcopenia - low bone mass and low muscle mass Sarcobesity - low muscle mass and high fat mass Osteosarcobesity - low bone mass, low muscle mass and high fat mass  Osteobesity - low bone mass and high fat mass    The biggest risk of sarcopenia is falling due to instability and inability to “right” yourself when slips and falls occur. I promised we'd visit what's possible so here that is: A 1.9-3.3% increase in global muscle mass in humans is associated with a 4.1% to 5.8% lower fat mass and reduced A1c and fasting glucose in studies lasting 2 weeks to 3 years.   How to Avoid Sarcopenia? Resistance train 2x per week minimum, for some that's maximum. Know your recovery needs. Consume high protein foods and micronutrient dense foods at each meal.   Wouldn't it be wonderful if in 30 or 40 years, “What is sarcopenia?” is a question like “What is scurvy or rickets?” now which is never heard of.

It's Tuesday, July 29th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Ugandan Muslim terrorists massacre 40 Catholics with machetes Members of the Islamic Allied Democratic Forces, based in Western Uganda, struck the Congo town of Komanda on Sunday, killing almost 40 Catholic worshipers with machetes. This follows a similar massacre of 70 Protestant Christians in February in the city of Mayba, Congo.  522,000 Sudanese babies died of malnutrition Famine is on the rise across the world today, according to the World Food Program.  A total of 600,000 Sudanese face catastrophic hunger, and 8 million face emergency levels of hunger. The problem is four times worse in Sudan than it was last year. Since the outbreak of the Sudanese civil war in 2023, over 522,000 babies have died of malnutrition, as well as thousands of older children. That's according to the Committee of Sudanese Doctors.  This represents a sharp increase of deaths by famine — a metric that has averaged around 100,000 per year since the 1970s. Other nations facing emergency levels of hunger include Myanmar, South Sudan, Mali, and Haiti.   127 people starved to death in Gaza The World Food Program revealed about half a million people face catastrophic hunger in Gaza. Specifically, the AP reports that 127 people have starved to death in Gaza this year. From Psalm 146:5-9, we read, “Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God, Who made Heaven and Earth, the sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever, Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry. The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.” Cambodian/Thai ceasefire It all started when Cambodian tourists visiting Thailand began singing the Cambodian national anthem back in February. Then, on May 28th of this year, Cambodian and Thai soldiers took a few pot shots at each other across the border.   One Cambodian soldier died. Tensions increased over the next month. During early July, several Thai soldiers were severely injured when stepping on Cambodian-placed landmines at the border.  That's what it took to ignite all-out war between the two countries, beginning on July 24th. At least 33 citizens and soldiers were killed in the conflict. This conflict, which became deadly, illustrates the biblical principle from 1 Corinthians 3:3. It says, “For you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?” Thankfully, as of yesterday, the two nations have reached an agreement to an "immediate and unconditional ceasefire,” reports The Khmer Times. Japan's conservative political party rising in stature An anti-immigrant, anti-foreigner party called Sanseito has gained ascendance in Japan for the first time since World War II — moving from 1 to 15 seats in the nation's governing body. Other conservative type parties gained another 15 seats in the 248 seat upper house, for a total of a 12% gain. Trump to Russia: 12 days to reach ceasefire President Donald Trump is upping the ante with Russia. He gave Russian President Valdimir Putin 12 days to reach a ceasefire with Ukraine, or he will impose 100% tariffs on countries which purchase Russian exports. That would include China, India, Turkey, Brazil, South Korea, and Taiwan. Democrats viewed extremely unfavorably The Democrats are now viewed extremely unfavorably here in America by the public.  A new Wall Street Journal poll revealed that 63% of voters look upon the party unfavorably. Only 33% view it favorably.  The American public appreciates the Republican views over the Democratic views on issues like immigration, inflation, and foreign policy. Americans are also most upset with the Trump administration over tariffs, healthcare, and the Ukraine war. 63% of Americans want abortion legal in most cases The latest Associated Press/National Opinion Research Center polling indicates that 63% of Americans want abortion legal in most cases, and 52% support abortion for any reason whatsoever. Hulk Hogan rededicated faith in Christ at baptism 18 months before death And finally, a pastor with Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Florida has publicly announced baptizing Hulk Hogan, whose given name was Terry Bollea, prior to the pro-wrestler's recent passing.  According to the New York Post, Hogan was baptized 18 months before his death on July 24, 2025. Hogan was asked about it on the Christian Broadcasting Network. REPORTER: “Public baptism. You have said: the greatest moment of your life.” HOGAN: “Yes, without a doubt.” REPORTER: “Terry, what did that mean for you?” HOGAN: “It broke down that fourth or fifth wall to tell people the truth about my Lord and Savior, and it set me free. I wasn't that perfect vessel that I should have been. Once I was baptized, I felt I was all new. It really was a major pivot in my life.” In December 2023, Hogan wrote that his baptism marked “Total surrender and dedication to Jesus.” Pastor Aaron Filippone included an extended eulogy for Hogan on an X post over the weekend. The pastor noted that Hogan had worshiped faithfully with his wife at the church over the past two years.. He said, “He didn't just talk about his faith—he lived it. He walked in grace, and he made sure everyone around him knew that grace was available for them too.” The pastor added: “Jesus offers hope, forgiveness, and eternal life to anyone who believes. We invite you to visit a local, Bible-believing church—just like Terry did.”   Hogan, referencing his actual first name of “Terry” in this portion of the CBN interview, talked about his desire to live a faithful life as a Christian. HOGAN:  “What Terry brings to the table is a meat suit, a meat suit, filled with the Spirit of Christ, and it's a testing ground for me. I accepted Christ as my Savior. I was 14, but I derailed. It wasn't my life. He has given me the opportunity to prove that I'm faithful and I'll never make those same mistakes again.” Indeed, Hogan had led a rocky life, marked by two unhappy divorces.   Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, July 29th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

As global outrage builds over Gaza's deepening humanitarian crisis, Israel has announced a daily 10-hour pause in military operations to allow aid deliveries. It comes amid allegations it is weaponising starvation, which Israel denies. While the World Food Program welcomes the pause, it warns access must be sustained and scaled-up to meet urgent needs, as nearly half a million Gazans face famine-like conditions.

The parents of a five month-old girl in Gaza who has died after suffering malnutrition have spoken of their struggle to find baby formula and their fear that many children are in the same state. Also: Sir Keir Starmer has told the leaders of France and Germany that the UK is working with other countries to help drop aid into Gaza. And: Protesters have insisted that Donald Trump is not welcome in Scotland as the president played a round of golf at his course at Turnberry.

Eating disorders are complicated illnesses that skyrocketed among teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pediatrician Eva Trujillo says they "literally rewire the brain," decrease brain size, and make it harder to concentrate and to regulate emotions. Malnutrition can slow the metabolism, impact bone density and even lead to cardiac arrest. But Eva says, with the right treatment, people can also recover fully. She's the president of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and co-founder of Comenzar de Nuevo, a leading treatment facility in Latin America. Today on the show, host Emily Kwong talks about the physical and mental impacts of eating disorders with Dr. Trujillo and Moorea Friedmann, a teen mental health advocate and host of the podcast Balancing Act.
