(00:00) — Pre-k graduation and "I want to be a baby doctor": Where the idea of medicine first appeared for Riya.(01:07) — Seventh-grade biology and Hashimoto's thyroiditis: The classroom moment that made medicine feel like a real possibility.(02:24) — Hospital volunteering in high school: First clinical exposure, patient interaction, and what sparked genuine interest.(04:57) — Discovering combined BSMD and BSDO programs: How Riya and her mom researched programs in eleventh grade and decided to pursue them.(06:45) — Reflecting on the accelerated path: Whether finishing undergrad in three years meant missing out.(07:15) — The MCAT decision: Why avoiding the MCAT was a meaningful factor in choosing a program.(09:12) — Applying to 23 schools: The breakdown of combined versus traditional applications and getting into four programs.(10:05) — Choosing between programs: Family proximity, location, and the DO philosophy as deciding factors.(10:54) — Why DO over MD: What the osteopathic mind-body-spirit philosophy and hands-on technique meant to her personally.(12:22) — Conditional acceptance pressure in undergrad: Carrying valedictorian stress into a three-year sprint.(13:42) — The hardest semester: o-chem, biochem, and anatomy simultaneously with three concurrent labs.(14:45) — Physical planners and time management: How Riya stayed on top of classes, tutoring, and two research projects.(15:33) — Finding The Premed Years on a two-hour drive: How the podcast became part of her routine.(17:10) — Medical school versus premed undergrad: Why the schedule now feels more manageable.(19:14) — Finding your own study method: Why copying what works for others often backfires.(24:19) — Menstrual health app, a thousand-dollar prize, and a TikTok research project: How curiosity led to unexpected opportunities.(26:54) — Words for the stressed premed: Gratitude journals, getting back up, and holding on to small happy moments.Riya knew she wanted to be a doctor before she could fully explain what that meant. By eleventh grade she was researching combined BSDO and BSMD programs with her mom, and she eventually applied to around fifteen of them alongside traditional schools. She got into four combined programs and chose a three-plus-four DO pathway that let her stay near family during undergrad before moving states for medical school. The cost was real: she finished prerequisites in three years, took organic chemistry, biochemistry, and anatomy in the same semester with three concurrent labs, tutored classmates, and ran two research projects simultaneously. She also drove two hours home most weekends and, on those drives, found this podcast. Now in medical school and studying for Step, Riya reflects on choosing DO over MD, what the osteopathic philosophy genuinely gave her, and why she has no regrets about any of it. She talks honestly about the stress of a conditional acceptance, the trial and error of finding a study method that actually works, and how keeping a gratitude journal got her through a brutal first semester away from family.What You'll Learn:- How combined BSMD and BSDO programs work and what it actually takes to stay in one through undergrad.- Why one student chose a DO program over MD programs she was also accepted to, and what that decision has meant in practice.- How to manage an overwhelming premed course load using intentional time planning rather than sheer willpower.- Why finding your own study method matters more than copying the approaches that work for classmates.- How following genuine curiosity across research, hackathons, and extracurriculars can open doors that a straight-line approach would miss.

Dr. Yana Aznavour, CEO and Founder of Endometrics, discusses the significant diagnostic delay women face with endometriosis due to non-specific symptoms and the current reliance on invasive surgery for a definitive diagnosis. The company has developed a non-invasive at-home diagnostic test that uses menstrual blood to analyze a five-gene biomarker signature with high accuracy.  This objective, molecular-based test shortens the time to the correct treatment and changes the dynamic of the patient-doctor conversation. Yana explains, "We are developing non-invasive diagnostic tests, and we are primarily addressing the huge diagnostic delay that our patients, women, face, unfortunately. This happens because there are tons of non-specific symptoms and inconclusive imaging findings, and women face unnecessary appointments and procedures before reaching the point of definitive diagnosis. We are working rigorously towards bringing non-invasive, highly reliable diagnostic tests to help women get clarity and answers behind their symptoms way earlier in the journey."   "Menstrual pain and pain in general that women try to express and define at physician's appointments, it's being dismissed because they try to explain that, but in many cases, they cannot find exactly where it hurts, especially in endometriosis. Due to this, unfortunately, at the primary care level and the non-OB/GYN level, they're being dismissed and repeatedly misdiagnosed for years. The key reason is the non-specific symptoms because symptoms like pelvic pain and pain with urination overlap with the list of diagnoses. Currently, the definitive diagnosis for endometriosis is achieved through surgery. Nobody would do surgery after the first appointment. So, endometriosis becomes a diagnosis of exclusion, unfortunately, and it takes years before patients receive the final diagnosis." #Endometrics #Endometriosis, #WomensHealth, #Biomarkers, #Diagnostics, #FemTech #Gynecology #PrecisionMedicine endometrics.us Download the transcript here

A Nurse's Guide to Hormones and Mental Health: Menstrual Tracking InsightsSUMMARY: Hormonal fluctuations across the menstrual cycle don't just affect physical health—they have measurable, clinically significant mental health implications that are still widely misunderstood, underdiagnosed, and often dismissed in practice. This episode breaks down the hormone-mood connection, explains the phases of the menstrual cycle and what's happening neurochemically in each, and explores how menstrual tracking can be used as a clinical tool to identify patterns, differentiate conditions, and guide care.---Nurses may be able to complete an accredited CE activity featuring content from this podcast and earn CE hours provided from Elite Learning by Colibri Healthcare.

Durante años, se nos hizo creer que la sexualidad “normal” debía funcionar como un interruptor: prendida o apagada. Pero el ciclo menstrual desmonta ese mito. Hay algo que millones de personas con útero hacen cada mes sin darse cuenta: vivir cuatro vidas sexuales distintas dentro de una sola. Se despiertan sin ganas un martes, arrasadoras un viernes, sensibles el otro lunes, y en algún punto del mes sienten que podrían seducir a quienes se propongan. 28M: En el día de la salud menstrual es importante reconocer que el cuerpo cambia, y que esos cambios pueden influir en la excitación, la lubricación, la sensibilidad, el dolor, el humor y la disposición al contacto. 

Cada 28 de mayo se conmemora el Día Internacional de la Higiene Menstrual, una fecha impulsada para visibilizar la importancia de la salud menstrual y romper los estigmas que aún existen alrededor de la menstruación. La menstruación es un proceso natural del cuerpo y también un indicador importante de salud. Sin embargo, millones de niñas, adolescentes y mujeres enfrentan barreras para acceder a información, productos de higiene y espacios seguros para gestionar su periodo de manera digna. En este podcast de El Expresso de las 10 la Dra. Mariana Rivas Paz médica con especialidad en Ginecología y Obstetricia y subespecialidad en Urología Ginecológica. Educadora en Sexualidad por el Colegio Mexicano de Sexología y Educación Sexual, Maestra en Educación sexual y Terapia de Pareja, nos ayuda a resignificar el ciclo menstrual para eliminar el estigma y promover la educación sobre el cuerpo.

In this episode we talk about Nicole and I's shared history working in television production, how burnout and health challenges led her to leave the entertainment industry, and the path that eventually led her into women's health. We get into hormones, birth control, cycle literacy, and why so many women grow up completely disconnected from what their bodies are actually doing.

Join David Lee Corbo (The Raven) and Top Lobsta on Nephilim Death Squad as Doc Brown from the Prometheus Lens Podcast joins them IN STUDIO for a mind-blowing deep dive into his upcoming book!Doc Brown connects the dots between the ancient Dragon Court, serpent seed Nephilim bloodlines, Cain's descendants, Scythian origins of vampires/werewolves/fairies, and the elite ruling class that traces back to the Anunnaki and Apkallu.They expose how menstrual blood rituals, grail maidens, dragon princesses, and “starfire” were used by this sub-human bloodline for power, rejuvenation, and kingship — including Solomon's 700 wives and 300 concubines feeding on pomegranates, lilies, and sticky mirth in the Song of Solomon.Topics include: adrenochrome and modern blood harvesting, Amalekites as “blood lickers,” red-haired/green-eyed Aryan Dragon Court elites, reptilian shapeshifters, Sobek, Inanna, Gilgamesh's vampiric mother, Viking berserkers, ancestor worship in tombs, the Ouroboros emblem, Sheila Na Gig, Melusine, Tuatha de Danann, Phoenician/Pharaonic inbreeding, Bohemian Grove druid rituals, and how all of this ties directly into current alien disclosure, hybridization programs, and biblical prophecy.Plus: why the Catholic Church demonized these real people as undead vampires, the scientific basis for blood rejuvenation (young blood studies), and why the Bible repeatedly warns against drinking blood.Doc Brown also discusses his previous book The Epic of Esau: Birth, Rite and Seed War, available with autographed copies, stickers, and bookmarks directly from him. Support Nephilim Death Squad & get ad-free episodes, live Brohemian Grove stream access & merch discounts: patreon.com/NephilimDeathSquad TopLopsa.com merch (use NDS discount code)  Guest: Doc Brown – Prometheus Lens Podcast• Website & autographed book: prometheuslenspodcast.com• The Epic of Esau (physical, digital, Audible): Amazon or direct from site• Listen everywhere: YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts  Website & autographed books/stickers/goodie bags: prometheuslenspodcast.comThe Epic of Esau (physical, digital, Audible narrated by Doc Brown): Available direct from his site or AmazonPodcast: Prometheus Lens Podcast on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts (and all major platforms)New book (vampire/Dragon Court project): In progress — expected by fall (full-time content creation now)00:00 – Welcome to Nephilim Death Squad + Intro  00:45 – Patreon, TopLopsa.com, Bohemian Grove tickets & livestream plug  03:20 – Introducing in-studio guest Doc Brown (Prometheus Lens Podcast)  06:10 – Where to find Doc Brown + The Epic of Esau book (autographed + goodie bags)  09:55 – New book tease: Vampires, menstrual blood, Dragon Court & cryptids  14:40 – Serpent Seed, Dragon Court, Devere's The Dragon Legacy, Anunnaki origins  20:25 – Cain's bloodline, Sumerian Kings List, Gilgamesh's vampiric mother  26:10 – Dragon Court subclasses: Fairies, vampires, werewolves, elves  30:45 – Biblical blood laws (Leviticus, Deuteronomy) & why they were written  35:20 – Adrenochrome, young blood studies, melatonin & pale skin  41:05 – Ancestor worship, tombs, Viking berserkers & fair folk  46:30 – Paul Stobbs, Cain's mark, pale Nephilim & Amalekites (“blood lickers”)  52:15 – Dragon Court emblem breakdown (Ouroboros, lotus, dragons)  57:40 – Baphomet, inverted pentagrams, starfire & grail maidens  1:03:10 – Reptilians, Sobek, seraphim & the serpent curse  1:08:45 – Inbreeding, blood addiction & “Limitless pill” analogy  1:14:20 – Idun's apples of red gold, Norse myths & elite “adrenochrome withdrawal”  1:20:35 – Alien disclosure, hybridization programs & current events  1:26:50 – Scythians, etymology of pixies/leprechauns, scale armor  1:33:00 – Sheila Na Gig, Melusine, labyrinths & sacred groves  1:38:40 – Druids, Bohemian Grove, Tree of Life & Phoenician/Pharaonic inbreeding  1:44:05 – Revelation: Scarlet Whore, red dragon & “porneia” (starfire) cup  1:47:30 – Song of Solomon deep dive: lilies, pomegranates, sticky mirth & Solomon's harem  1:49:00 – Closing thoughts, where to find Doc Brown & outroBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nephilim-death-squad--6389018/support.☠️ Nephilim Death Squad — New episodes 5x/week.Join our Patreon for early access, bonus shows & the private Telegram hive.Subscribe on YouTube & Rumble, follow @NephilimDSquad on X/Instagram, grab merch at toplobsta.com. Questions/bookings: chroniclesnds@gmail.com — Stay dangerous.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is a dedicated functional health expert and seasoned podcast host who is deeply invested in women's health, longevity, and fertility. With a rich background in functional medicine, Dr. Hieshetter blends her professional expertise with personal insights, being a mother herself, steeped in a family history of strong, long-lived women. Her mission is to raise awareness on critical issues like hormonal health and its relation to women's overall well-being and societal health. Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode of Functional Health Radio, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the intricate world of women's health and fertility. Drawing on both personal and professional insight, she emphasizes the importance of understanding women's hormonal cycles as a key indicator of health and longevity. With an emphasis on how these cycles influence not just individual well-being but also societal health at large, Dr. Hieshetter offers a nuanced look at topics like the early onset of puberty, menstrual irregularities, and the role of societal factors in women's reproductive health. As the discussion unfolds, Dr. Hieshetter unveils startling statistics from recent studies on early menstruation onset and its health implications. Emphasizing the impact of environmental factors and lifestyle choices on reproductive health, she urges listeners to look beyond conventional wisdom and explore how modern lifestyles and diets may be affecting our biological systems. Dr. Hieshetter concludes with a powerful call to action, encouraging both women and men to become informed and proactive in their health choices, promising future episodes focused on men's health to ensure a balanced discourse. Key Takeaways: Hormonal cycles are integral not only to women's health but also to societal longevity and quality of life, serving as vital signs of overall health. There has been a significant shift in the onset of puberty, with critical implications for girls' long-term health, as influenced by obesity and environmental toxins. Early onset of puberty is associated with increased risks of cardiovascular disease, cancer, and bone fractures, highlighting the need for further study and awareness. The use of hormonal contraceptives in young female athletes, while often for menstrual regulation, may contribute to an increased risk of bone stress injuries. The pervasive influence of environmental contaminants and diet on hormonal health and reproductive capabilities demands urgent attention and systemic change. Notable Quotes: "Women's health is a critical player in the survival of humanity." "If you don't have healthy women, you're not going to have healthy babies." "Menstrual cycles are a vital sign, the biggest predictor of health and longevity in society." "Children should have a childhood free of health issues influenced heavily by dietary and environmental factors." "We've been propagandized to ingest things that aren't good for us, relying on medications for maladies preventable by lifestyle changes." Resources: Journal of American Medical Association, Open Network National Library of Medicine, February 2021, on hormonal contraception and bone stress injuries Human Reproduction Journal - study on air pollution exposure and menstrual disorders Nurses Health Study covering exposure and menstrual cycle irregularities Listeners are encouraged to dive into this episode for a comprehensive understanding of women's health and fertility and stay connected for future episodes tackling men's health and hormone-related topics.

¿Y si el problema no es que tu energía cambie, sino que el mundo laboral espera que funcione igual todos los días? En este episodio de Más Cabrona Que Bonita, exploro sobre cómo el ciclo menstrual no solo impacta el estado de ánimo, sino también la forma en que el cerebro femenino procesa información, toma decisiones, evalúa riesgos, comunica, crea y detecta errores. Durante años, la productividad se ha construido bajo una lógica lineal: rendir igual, responder igual, producir igual. Pero el cuerpo femenino funciona de manera cíclica. Las hormonas, la energía cognitiva, la sensibilidad al riesgo y la capacidad de análisis pueden variar a lo largo del mes. Y eso no nos hace menos capaces. Nos hace diferencialmente capaces. Hablamos de ciclo menstrual, cerebro femenino, productividad, trabajo, hormonas, rendimiento cognitivo y de por qué quizá el futuro del trabajo no debería exigir cuerpos más estables, sino sistemas más inteligentes para leer la variación como información. Porque no todo ritmo es desorden. Y no toda pausa es retroceso.

Click here to send me a quick message :) What if relieving menstrual pain or releasing stuck emotions in our wombspace could be fun, engaging, and... include twerking? It can!To be honest, I've tried twerking in the past and maybe it's because I've compared myself to others but I just figured I was bad at it, and it wasn't for me.Today's guest, Twerk Temple teacher Abigail Morrissey, laid it all out in a way that actually felt approachable for me. I didn't know that there are 5 separate movements that can be included in twerking, and some of them are easier or more natural for some of us.She also guided some really simple steps to get started, and encouraged just 2 minutes a day of the "booty pop" which is like, so possible for most of us.But before we got into twerking, we talked about her healing journey which I think will be very relatable and inspiring to listen to. From being a hospital nurse to experiencing an injury that catalyzed her to re-assess her life to getting off hormonal birth control to cycle synching and becoming more integrative in her approaches... And then a huge life upheaval which led to her finding twerking and experiencing near total relief of her menstrual pain symptoms...And her deep trust in the unfolding of her life.There is so much here.

Adriana Forte is a Brazilian-born writer, facilitator, and developmental thinker currently based in a rural intentional community in Bellingen, New South Wales, Australia. Originally trained as a journalist, Adriana has spent years investigating the intersection of women's cyclical biology, embodied knowing, and the structures of modern life. She runs retreats and workshops through her Substack platform C-Lab (A Lab for a Cyclically Informed Society), and is currently completing a book on the spell of modernity and the role of the matriarch as a force for cultural repair.________________In this conversation, James sits down with Adriana to explore one of the most under-examined questions in contemporary culture: what happens when society is built around a linear, continuous model of productivity — and half the population runs on a fundamentally cyclical one? Drawing on her own journey from Brazil through Hong Kong and India to off-grid life in rural Australia, Adriana maps the hormonal landscape of the female cycle and argues that the oscillation between estrogen and progesterone doesn't just produce moods — it produces a distinct mode of subjectivity, perception, and thought. We explore the cultural erasure of rites of passage, the psychological costs of the contraceptive pill, the wisdom encoded in perimenopause and menopause, and why Adriana believes the matriarch — the post-menopausal woman — may be the missing counter-energy to the relentless forward drive of modernity. The conversation moves through evolutionary biology, embodied philosophy, grassroots community-building, and genuine hope for a more rhythmically intelligent future.________________You can find Adriana's work at:Substack (C-Lab): https://theclab.substack.com/________________⏳ Timestamps:0:00 Intro - Our Bellingen Connection5:41 How Adriana ended up on this journey12:56 Critique of Modernity and Birth Interventions15:23 Rhythms and female psychology24:38 A map of the menstrual cycle39:11 The Influence of Modernity on Women's Psyche45:59 Transgender and phenomenology of hormones52:01 The oscillating nature of female psychology59:25 The spell of the System on modern psychology1:09:15 The challenge of organising around cyclical society1:15:03 Adriana's Matriarch Book1:18:43 Where to get more from Adriana1:19:39 Adriana's Guest Recommendation

In this episode of the Healthy, Wealthy and Smart podcast, Dr. Karen Litzy speaks with Arielle Loupos, founder of Flower Girl, about the often-stigmatized topic of menstrual care and period products. They discuss harmful ingredients in traditional menstrual products, the importance of sustainable, non-toxic alternatives, and cycle syncing as a tool for self-awareness and empowerment. Arielle shares her journey creating Flower Girl and emphasizes the need for open conversations about menstruation to break the stigma and promote women's health.

Organic labeling on menstrual products can be misleading. Sustainable and non-toxic alternatives are essential for women's health. Cycle syncing can enhance self-awareness and optimize daily life. Women should honor their menstrual cycles and allow for rest. Understanding menstrual health is crucial for overall well-being. Open conversations about menstruation can empower women. Education about menstruation should start at a young age.

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:    Lisa: Hello- my 15 year old daughter gets really bad menstrual cramps. She is bed ridden and usually vomiting. Her PcP recommends 800mg of ibuprofen but I know that is treating the symptom and not the root cause. How do I determine the root cause and how to I get her some relief with putting her on birth control? Thanks a million!!     Gabriela: Hello! I've been an avid listener of your podcast for some time now, and have really learned a lot.  I was wondering if you know about Morley Robins and his beliefs about iron/deficiency. I listened to a podcast where he was guest and he said that pregnant women don't need iron even if their hemoglobin is low. He subtly connects iron fortification with hemorrhaging. Claims that a person needs only 1mg of iron daily from our diet, mentions RES, and says copper is much more important. Says we have ten times more iron in the tissue than the blood, so bloodwork isn't enough. Also says iron fortification should not be done. What is your opinion on all this? I'm confused.                        Rebecca: Hi Dr Cabral,  I love listening to you everyday and look forward to keeping up with your wonderful sharing of knowledge. I choose to listen to limited influential wellness experts and I value your opinions very much. I would like to know why you and others don't talk about maca as a valuable nutritional superfood. In the past I have read and listened to the value of this and am wondering why its not at the forefront anymore? Thank you very much. Rebecca                                                                                                                                                                 Victoria: Hi dr Stephen cabral, I have a tricky question that I'm hoping you can help me with. I have been a little worried about potential asbestos exposure. It's not a lot of exposure however someone told me that one exposure can lead to asbestiosis. I live a healthy life and wondering if there are lifestyle things I can do to keep my lungs healthy so it doesn't turn into an asbestos related disease. Everywhere I look on the internet doesn't really explain this. I am going to the gp as I have been extremely worried about this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have read your book and I saw in there it says that firefighters are exposed to more pollutants including asbestos and the book can really help with detox etc. Thank you for your time. Look forward to hearing from you! Victoria               Justine: I suspect there is mold behind the drywall of my 70 year old home. There was no caulk around the outdoor windows for 2 years and I started getting cognitive symptoms after moving in. My glutathione provoked urine mycotoxin test showed up positive for 3 mycotoxins but at low levels just over the limit. She said it's possible that I'm not detoxing well and my levels are actually underrepresented. She suggested I do the MyMycoLab blood IgG test next to confirm that mold is the cause of my severe MCAS. I am trying to determine if I should sell my home as I don't want to remediate. I work from home so this would be the only exposure source. Do you think this test is accurate for determining if mold is the cause of my symptoms?       Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3599 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
