Is homeopathy a gentle natural cure… or just really confident sugar pills? This week on Hysteria 51 Kevin Crispin of the Behind Beautiful Things podcast joins us as we dive into the strange world of “like cures like,” ultra-dilutions, and remedies so watered down they make LaCroix look concentrated. From onion pills for allergies to ghostly duck-liver flu treatments, we break down how homeopathy works, why people swear by it, and how it can turn downright dangerous when it replaces real medical care.We'll explore the bizarre history of homeopathy, its modern comeback as “alternative medicine,” and the very real harm when serious conditions get treated with nothing more than placebo pellets and good vibes. But we're also turning a skeptical eye on the U.S. healthcare system itself—because when seeing a real doctor costs a small mortgage payment, it's no wonder people reach for magic water. Tune in for jokes, science, and just enough rage to dilute your faith in everyone equally.Special thanks to this week's research sources:WebsitesArizona Homeopathic - https://arizonahomeopathic.org/homeopathy-and-covid-19/ Discover Homeopathy - https://www.discoverhomeopathy.co.uk/victims/ Science Based Medicine - https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/belief-in-homeopathy-results-in-the-death-of-a-7-year-old-italian-child/ Springer - https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00508-020-01624-x Scientific American - https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/hundreds-of-babies-harmed-by-homeopathic-remedies-families-say/ Perth Now - https://www.perthnow.com.au/news/cancer-victim-penelope-dingle-in-awe-of-homeopath---husband-ng-7c51c3e2f263eb5e4e530d5cb0a8b152 National Library of Medicine - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7253376/ National Library of Medicine - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1676328/Email us your favorite WEIRD news stories:weird@hysteria51.com Support the ShowGet exclusive content & perks as well as an ad and sponsor free experienceat https://www.patreon.com/Hysteria51 from just $1 ShopBe the Best Dressed at your Cult Meeting!https://www.teepublic.com/stores/hysteria51?ref_id=9022See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Każdy lek, który kupujemy w aptece, przeszedł wcześniej fazy ściśle kontrolowanych badań klinicznych. W czasie czterech faz testuje się jego bezpieczeństwo, dawkowanie, reakcje z innymi schorzeniami lub lekami.Obiecane w odcinku linki: Wyszukiwarka badań finansowanych przez ABM Wyszukiwarka ABMEuropejska Sieć Informacji o badaniach klinicznych Wyszukiwarka badaniakliniczne.plWyszukiwarka U.S. National Library of Medicine Wyszukiwarka ClinicalTrials.gov - przewodnik do pobraniaWyszukiwarka Europejskiej Agencji Leków (EMA) Wyszukiwarka EMAMonitorowanie nie kończy się z momentem wypuszczenia leku na rynek. – Leki mają serie. Każda seria leku musi być taka sama, to znaczy skład musi być taki sam – tłumaczy dr n. med. Elżbieta Bylina, dyrektorka Centrum Rozwoju Badań Klinicznych w Agencji Badań Medycznych. Monitoruje się też zgłoszenia od pacjentów i lekarzy na temat ewentualnych działań niepożądanych i jeśli jest ich dużo, lek może zostać wycofany z rynku. Te przepisy nie dotyczą suplementów diety: nie muszą przechodzić badań klinicznych ani zachowywać niezmiennego składu. Suplementy diety to żywność, nie mogą leczyć, choć mogą działać wspierająco. Pamiętajmy o tym widząc kolejne reklamy suplementów.Nad wprowadzaniem na rynek nowych leków czuwają instytucje państwowe. W Polsce są to Urząd Rejestracji Produktów Leczniczych, Wyrobów Medycznych i Produktów Biobójczych oraz Naczelna Komisja Bioetyczna. Dodatkowe komisje bioetyczne można powoływać przy uniwersytetach, placówkach badawczych i izbach lekarskich.Działanie testowanej substancji leczniczej sprawdza się najpierw na sztucznie wyhodowanych komórkach, ale to za mało. Wszystkie leki są na jakimś etapie testowane na zwierzętach i na pacjentach, którzy wyrazili na to zgodę. – Dana cząsteczka może się inaczej zachowywać wewnątrz organizmu niż na zewnątrz, na liniach komórkowych – tłumaczy dr Bylina. Naukowcy starają się zwierzęta oszczędzać, np. testować kilka różnych substancji na tym samym osobniku. A badania na ludziach są dobrowolne (ochotnicy zgłaszają się do badań klinicznych, ważne: nigdy za to nie płacą) i zwykle podwójnie zaślepione. To znaczy, że pacjent nie wie, czy otrzymuje badany produkt, czy placebo, nie wie tego również lekarz. To zapewnia obiektywność wyników. Naukowcy starają się też, by grupy badawcze były zróżnicowane pod względem płci, wieku i chorób towarzyszących. To pozwala lepiej przetestować produkt i wyłapać ewentualne skutki uboczne na wcześniejszym etapie.W odcinku usłyszycie też, dlaczego kobiety w ciąży i małe dzieci mogą przyjmować tak mało leków, gdzie szukać informacji o badaniach klinicznych i jak zapewnić, by producent leku nie wpływał na wyniki badań. Są też słowa podziękowania dla wszystkich pacjentów, którzy decydują się brać udział w badaniach.Odcinek jest efektem współpracy z Agencją Badań Medycznych, publicznej instytucji działającej od 2019 roku.

When Ian Scott and Kirsty McHugh – curators at the National Library of Scotland – created an exhibition on pen names, they never imagined it would become a book. But that’s exactly what happened, and in this episode, Ian joins to discuss some of the curious motivations and stories behind some of the world’s most famous and infamous pseudonyms in their book Pen Names – including examples of authors who fully immersed themselves in their imaginary personas! 00:00 Welcome00:18 Rewriting your personal narrative07:06 Writing tip: Tracking your time10:05 WIN!: The Funeral Crashers by Joanna Nell13:33 Word of the week: ‘Edentulous’14:14 The world of words: Short forms of ‘until’16:10 Writer in residence: Ian Scott16:57 The inspiration for the book Pen Names18:42 An exhibition on pen names23:00 The stories behind the stories27:00 Common reasons for pen names27:58 Gender bias in literature31:55 Other reasons for not using your own name32:10 Famous examples34:55 Authors wanting to be judged independently38:47 Deceptive use of a pen name: Fiona Macleod40:55 Modern pen names and marketability43:19 Collaborative writing under one name45:01 Authors like Lee Child and book cover real estate46:49 Would Ian choose a pen name for himself?48:45 Wait – is his co-writer Kirsty McHugh even real?50:30 Is his book in his own library?53:02 Final thoughts Read the show notes Connect with Valerie and listeners in the podcast community on Facebook Visit WritersCentre.com.au | ValerieKhoo.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery interviews Gregory Betts, one of the poets behind the collaboration, Muttertongue: what is a word in utter space (Exile Editions, 2025) – by Lillian Allen (Toronto' s seventh Poet Laureate, a dub poet, writer, and Juno Award winner), Gary Barwin (poet, writer, composer, multimedia artist, performer, and educator), and Gregory Betts (whose writing explores the boundaries between self, other, and alien – the radical other). This is a collaborative collection that crackles in its exploration of land, language, and page space. Combining the intensity of Dub Poetry with the intricacies of experimental poetics, Muttertongue presents a sonorous soundscape echoing with the question of where (and why) is here (hear). The book opens with a dialogue between the three authors, and concludes with an Afterword by Kaie Kellough. The release of the book recedes a new music LP by the three authors (June of 2025). This is a project by the Muttertongue Trio: Allen • Barwin • Betts. Lillian Allen is the 7th Poet Laureate of Toronto and a professor of creative writing at Ontario College of Art and Design University. She is a two time JUNO award winner and trailblazer in the field of spoken word and dub poetry. Lillian's debut book of poetry Rhythm An' Hardtimes became a Canadian best seller, blazing new trails for poetic expression and opened up the form. Lillian's latest collection Make the World New: The Poetry of Lillian Allen, edited by Ronald Cummings was published in Spring 2021 and is part of the Laurier Poetry Series. Her other collections, Women Do This Everyday and Psychic Unrest are studied across the educational spectrum. Her literary work for young people includes three books: Why Me, If You See Truth, and Nothing But a Hero. She received the Margaret Laurence Lecture award, 2020 and the Gustafson Distinguished Poet award, 2021. She is a Toronto Cultural Champion and the recipient of an Honorary Doctorate for her contribution to Canadian Letters. Her current art practice veers into vocal sonic poetics and explores pre-language and post-language poetics. Gary Barwin is a writer, musician and multimedia artist and the author of 34 books including Scandal at the Alphorn Factory: New and Selected Short Fiction 2024-1984. His national bestselling novel Yiddish for Pirates which won the Leacock Medal and the Canadian Jewish Literary Award, was a finalist for the Governor General's Award and the Giller Prize and was longlisted for Canada Reads. His last novel, Nothing the Same, Everything Haunted won the Canadian Jewish Literary Award and was the Hamilton Reads choice for 2023-2024. His last poetry collection, The Most Charming Creatures also won the Canadian Jewish Literary Award. His most recent novel, The Comedian's Book of the Dead will be published in 2026. He has received the Life Membership Award from the League of Canadian Poets and has twice been shortlisted for their Spoken Word Prize. His art and media works have been exhibited internationally. A PhD in music, he has been writer-in-residence and taught courses at many universities and colleges. Born in Northern Ireland to South African parents of Lithuanian Ashkenazi descent, he lives in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Website here Gregory Betts is a poet and professor at Brock University and the author or editor of 25 books. His poems have been stenciled into the sidewalks of St. Catharines and selected by the SETI Institute to be implanted into the surface of the moon. He has performed his poetry at such venues as the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games as part of the Cultural Olympiad, the National Library in Dublin, and the Sorbonne Université in Paris, amongst many others. He is an award-winning scholar of the Canadian avant-garde, curator of the bpNichol.ca Digital Archive, and Literary Arts Residency Lead at the SETI Institute. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Big Blend Radio's “Quiltripping Travel with Rose” podcast, travel writer and photographer Rose Palmer takes us on a captivating journey through Malta, the independent island nation nestled between Sicily and North Africa. With a history stretching back over 5,000 years, Malta is a treasure trove of cultural influences, architectural marvels, and remarkable resilience. Explore the breathtaking St. John's Cathedral in Valletta—with its stunning Baroque design and an iconic Caravaggio painting—along with the island's fortified structures built by the Knights of St. John. Rose digs into Malta's pivotal role during World War II, from the extensive bombing campaigns to the underground shelters that protected its people. Hear about the Arabic roots of the Maltese language, the ancient texts preserved in the National Library of Malta (some dating to 1474), and the island's fascinating Neolithic history. Rose also highlights the vibrant lifestyle of Valletta, its UNESCO World Heritage designation, and the enduring spirit of the Maltese people. Whether you're a history buff, culture seeker, or curious traveler, this episode offers a rich glimpse into what makes Malta a must-visit Mediterranean destination.

In a raucous ride filled with twists and turns that only the Neal Baer years of SVU can deliver, the Unit first catches a dead baby in a bag in a gutter and ends up with two different perps going down for two very different crimes one of which is ripped from not one, but two different headlines. Featuring dives into West Nile Virus, the origins of the UK's Anatomy Act 1832, and subdermal tubes filled with other people's blood used to juke blood tests, this one has a lot going on, and that has nothing to do with how this Season 5, Episode 5 "Serendipity" will forever reframe how you look at honey.Sources:The use of insects in forensic investigations: An overview on the scope of forensic entomology - National Library of Medicine, PubMed CentralBurke and Hare Murders - WikipediaMusic:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, and Karyn R - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Sweden's National Library protects the Codex Gigas—165 pounds of vellum featuring the complete Bible and a terrifying portrait of Satan. Scholars estimate the work should've taken thirty years. Herman the Recluse finished it in one.  The traditional story involves a desperate bargain with darkness. The real story connects this manuscript to a limestone crack in Bohemia where creatures emerged nightly, a duke who sent prisoners into the depths, and a fortress built to seal Hell's gateway.  When the Nazis occupied the site in 1940, they brought excavation equipment and Himmler's personal occult division. What they found made them destroy everything and flee.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgXZ6bVuuN8

Archivum (Pavillion Poetry at Liverpool UP, 2025) by Dr. Theresa Muñoz is a book – wise, funny and inventive by turn – that explores what it means to look at artefacts in an archive, and how these objects resonate with events in our lives. Imagined as a walk across Edinburgh, landmarks such as the Balmoral clock, National Library of Scotland, Meadows, Canongate Kirkyard and Water of Leith provide a meditative backdrop to the poems. The archives - in particular the archive of the writer Muriel Spark – are used to create a space to come to terms with the complexities of a life and how we in turn tell stories about ourselves: the depths of our familial relationships, relationship breakdowns and the death of a parent. What's found in the archive's boxes -- including recipes, telegrams, letters -- stirs and amplifies feelings of belonging, disorientation, triumph and grief. With a focus on women writers and interracial relationships, the book explores objects belonging to significant figures in the poet's imaginary: along with Spark, the actor Maggie Smith, poet Elizabeth Bishop, the 19th century slave owner's daughter Eliza Junor and psychotherapist Marie Battle Singer. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Welcome to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked, your podcast for the latest news, research, and practical insights on Ozempic, its medical uses, and the impact on lifestyle and health. Ozempic, known generically as semaglutide, was originally developed for type two diabetes but is now widely prescribed for weight management. According to Women's Health Research Cluster, Ozempic works by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 that helps you feel fuller longer and slows down how quickly the stomach empties. These effects not only help reduce appetite, but also keep blood sugar stable. That is why demand for these medications has skyrocketed over the past few years.Clinical trials consistently show notable results. Multiple large studies, as summarized in the National Library of Medicine, reveal that up to 14 to 16 percent body weight loss can be sustained for more than a year. Even higher percentages are seen when combined with behavioral therapy and a low-calorie diet. Some studies on similar drugs, like tirzepatide, report weight loss as high as 20 percent over seventy-two weeks. These numbers put Ozempic and its peers at the center of conversation around obesity and metabolic health.Real-world factors do impact results. New York University research presented at the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery compared Ozempic and similar drugs to bariatric surgery. Surgery produced five times the weight loss of medication, averaging more than 25 percent body weight lost over two years. Researchers noted that regardless of the method, consistency is key. Medications only work as long as they are taken, while surgery is a permanent change.For those considering Ozempic, there are some noticeable bodily effects. Medical News Today discusses “Ozempic legs,” a term for changes in leg appearance during rapid weight loss, such as thinner or frailer legs and sometimes loose skin. This can result from losing both fat and muscle. Up to forty percent of weight lost on semaglutide may come from lean body mass, not just fat. To address this, experts recommend eating enough protein, incorporating regular strength training, and losing weight gradually to preserve muscle and skin elasticity.Another area of emerging research is how these GLP-1 drugs affect alcohol metabolism. The Fralin Biomedical Research Institute found that medications like Ozempic can slow how quickly alcohol enters the bloodstream, delay its effects on the brain, and potentially reduce alcohol use. These findings suggest the drugs may play a future role in addiction treatment.In terms of safety and tolerability, gastrointestinal symptoms are the most common side effects, such as nausea or upset stomach. These are usually mild or moderate and tend to fade with time. For people with psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia, data published by National Library of Medicine indicate Ozempic led to significant weight loss without worsening mental health or interfering with medications.When stopping these medications, Women's Health Research Cluster points out weight regain is very likely, as the body's metabolic adaptations revert without continued GLP-1 stimulation. Long-term studies are ongoing to better understand risks and benefits over many years.There is also growing attention on rare, “unusual” side effects. The Independent and other outlets note that advanced imaging scans became necessary to rule out suspicious findings linked to rapid weight changes when doctors were assessing patients on these drugs. Researchers emphasize this does not mean the drugs cause cancer or other conditions, but it is an important side effect to keep monitoring as usage increases.While Ozempic has made headlines as a “miracle” weight loss medication, experts urge listeners to use it as part of a broader lifestyle approach, including healthy eating, physical activity, and regular medical check-ins. As with any medication, speak with your health care provider about the risks, benefits, and whether this option fits your specific goals and conditions.Thanks for tuning in to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked.

The long-heralded first County Episode of Three Ravens Series 7 is finally here and is a bumper-length installment all about the historic county of Cardiganshire on the west coast of Wales!Unable to resist discussing a local saint, Eleanor begins by introducing us to Carantoc, a dragon-slaying local hero who lost a special altar, apparently. Though luckily King Arthur was about to find it for him. Despite maybe having stolen it in the first place...After that, we whip through Cardiganshire's history, including its mythical ancient king Ceredig - from whom the county gets its Welsh name of 'Ceredigion' - to its conquering by gold-hungry Romans, resistance to the Normans, and the devastation wrought upon it by Cromwell's New Model Army.Sparsely populated and extremely rural, Cardiganshire is rich with mythology, such as the drowned lands of Cantre'r Gwaelod, an astonishing number of ghost animals (including an overly-affectionate spectral pig), giants with toothache, child-stealing fairies, and the 'Beast of Bont.' Yet, there's one tale that stands head and shoulders above the others. As discussed with this week's Local Legends guest, storyteller Milly Jackdaw, this story is that of the birth of Taliesin, the legendary Dark Age Brythonic poet who has since come to define key aspects of Welsh national character.Consequently, despite this week's 'Treasure of Wales' being the Holy Grail, the chewed-up remnants of which are currently located at the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth, and a plethora of other legends from Devilish goings-on to portentous Corpse Candles that augur doom, what choice did Eleanor have but to tell her take on that very story?Her version, entitled "The Cauldron of Awen," is a wild and poetic ride that bridges land and sea, vast spans of time, and transformations from human to animal and back again. After she's told it, we then discuss the legend's symbolism, share some news of an exciting archaeological discovery from just over the border in England, and dig into the Three Ravens mailbag, which is bursting at the seams from a long summer of correspondence!We really hope you enjoy the episode and are already exciting to speak to you again on Thursday in our Forgotten Melodies bonus episode all about Harvest Songs, all before the full interview with Milly comes out on Saturday!The Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.CLICK HERE TO COMPLETE THE THREE RAVENS ACAST SURVEY - PLEASE DO!

Torah scholar, author of many acclaimed seforim on the Torah of the Vilna Gaon and others, historian and author of the definitive work on Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzinski, are just a few of the many accomplishments of Rav Dovid Kamenetsky. His untimely passing leaves a void in the realm of his important historical research, but more importantly in what he represented as a person. He was beloved by all who knew him, whether it was in the National Library where he conducted his research for over four decades, or in his many interactions in his personal and professional life. This modest tribute is but a slice of his legacy and accomplishments, and may it serve as an albeit small contribution in cementing the legacy of this great man.  Subscribe to Jewish History Soundbites Podcast on: PodBean: https://jsoundbites.podbean.com/ or your favorite podcast platform Follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram at @Jsoundbites For sponsorship opportunities about your favorite topics of Jewish history or feedback contact Yehuda at: yehuda@yehudageberer.com

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. During today’s day of disruption in the capital, protesters calling for a hostage deal have escalated their tactics, including torching bins in Jerusalem -- which police said damaged a car and caused nearby residents to be evacuated -- and gaining access to the roof of the National Library, near the Knesset, to hang banners. The activists are pushing for renewed ceasefire-hostage release negotiations this week ahead of the IDF's "Gideon's Chariots B" operation. Berman updates us on the communications between the mediation teams. The IDF said today that it is boosting operational and logistical preparedness for reservists called up for the military’s planned Gaza City offensive. Over the coming weeks, troops will participate in open-terrain and urban warfare exercises to strengthen readiness across the Gaza Strip. At the same time, yesterday, some 350 reservists signed a mass petition stating that they refused to rejoin the war. Berman speaks about the willingness of reservists to continue to fight and how the IDF is taking their needs into consideration. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio may visit Israel in two weeks, an Israeli official told Berman yesterday. We hear what may be on his agenda. Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot announced Tuesday that Belgium will recognize the State of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly later this month. Berman describes how the slew of countries may recognize the Palestinian state at the GA and how European countries are already clamping down on Israel. French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday decried the “unacceptable” US decision not to grant visas to Palestinian officials, including Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas ahead of the United Nations General Assembly later this month, when France is also set to recognize a Palestinian state.

Vaughan Roderick looks back at highlights from Sunday Supplement over the past few months, including a row over rail funding, the future of Ukraine and Syria, the passing of Pope Francis, and the 'Great Bibles' going on display at the National Library of Wales.Interviews with Ben Lake MP, Ukrainian journalist and refugee Kateryna Gorodnycha, Children's Commissioner Rocio Cifuentes, Syrian doctor Mohammad Alhadj Ali, Delyth Jewell MS and Lord Don Touhig, Professor Elin Haf Gruffydd Jones and the National Library's Timothy Cutts.

Dr. Laura welcomes Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D., a Professor, Research Director, Speaker, and Author of the books Well at Work, Healing Spaces, and The Balance Within, to the podcast to talk about wellness at work and how workplace environments impact employees. Dr. Sternberg shares her career journey from her start in medical family practice through to becoming the Research Director at the Andrew Weil Center of Integrative Medicine. She and Dr. Laura talk about what factors impact health and overall wellness at work and how these can be improved.Dr. Sternberg delves into the insights in her book Well at Work and explains the seven domains of integrative health as defined by the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine. Sleep, resilience, environment, movement, relationships, spirituality, and nutrition are the seven domains, and they include things like how quickly we bounce back from stress, how clean our air is, and access to nature. Dr. Laura and Dr. Sternberg examine how office design, environmental location, common spaces that encourage relationships, and even temperature all play a key role in our workplace health. The conversation sheds light on how work isn't simply a place to invest time into productivity, but can positively or negatively impact our overall lives, and how redefining workplaces is a vital part of future discussions. “... if you're feeling too stressed or too activated, you want to do something that will tone down that stress response so you can perform at peak... If you're too stressed, you freeze, you're unable to focus. You're unable to do the job, the task at hand. So what helps you to move that stress response from the extreme danger zone back to performing at peak is places where you can go offline a little bit, where you can effectively meditate even though you're not sitting there with crossed legs in a lotus position in a yoga studio, although having spaces where some people can do that is is also beneficial. But a space, for example, [like] the gardens. To just walk in the gardens, to just take your brain off the computer for a while and focus on the green, on the plants.” - Dr. Esther SternbergAbout Dr. Esther Sternberg, M.D.:Dr. Esther Sternberg is internationally recognized for her discoveries in the science of the mind-body interaction in illness and healing, and the role of place in wellbeing. She is a pioneer and major force in collaborative initiatives on mind-body-stress-wellness and environment interrelationships. A dynamic speaker, she engages her audience with passion for her subject and compassion as a physician. Through stories, she provides listeners with many take-home tips to help them cope with stress and thrive, and to create wellbeing spaces wherever they work or live. Dr. Sternberg's three popular, highly readable, informative, and scientifically based books are inspirations for lay persons and professionals alike, seeking answers to the complexities and 21st-century frontiers of stress, place, healing, and wellness. Her award-winning book, WELL at WORK: Creating Wellbeing in Any Workspace (Little, Brown Spark, 2023) was named a Top Ten Lifestyle Book for Fall 2023 by Publishers Weekly and received the OWL (Outstanding Works of Literature) Longlist Award. Her two previous science-for-the-lay public books, Healing Spaces: The Science of Place and Well-Being and The Balance Within: The Science Connecting Health and Emotions, are landmark in its field. Healing Spaces was recognized by the President of the American Institute of Architects as an inspiration for launching the AIA's Design and Health Initiative and has inspired the implementation of healing spaces in hospitals across the country and around the world. Currently, Research Director, Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine and Founding Director of the University of Arizona Institute on Place, Wellbeing & Performance, she holds the Inaugural Andrew Weil Chair for Research in Integrative Medicine and is a Research Professor of Medicine with joint appointments as Professor in Psychology, Architecture, and Planning & Landscape Architecture, and in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, School of Nutritional Sciences and Wellness.

Discovered accidentally in the 1930s, studied as a possible psychiatric wonder drug, used by the CIA in highly unethical clandestine mind control experiments for project MKUltra during the cold war, adopted by the counterculture hippies of the summer of love, LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is viewed by some for its potential to expand human consciousness and promote peace and by others for its potential to completely destroy our society.

What if everything you thought you knew about vaccines was… incomplete?In this unfiltered, eye-opening episode, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh sit down once again with cardiologist, internist, and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough—this time to go deep into the rabbit hole of vaccine history, ideology, and the controversial myths we've stopped questioning.From 18th-century pus-filled experiments to modern-day policies driven more by profit than evidence, McCullough pulls back the curtain on how public trust has been won—and lost—through fear, flawed science, and a whole lot of money.They dive into:

This week is all about the history of salt! Yes, salt. You've probably never given it much thought. It sits in a salt shaker on your kitchen counter, spice rack, or cabinet. You can buy a pound of it for 76 cents at Walmart right now. But, believe it or not, salt was once an extremely valuable commodity. Whole civilizations rose up over salt. Trade routes were established. People became very wealthy. Salt allowed for the preservation of food which allowed humans to travel over long distances. It has invaluable medicinal properties. And, at it's most basic level, salt keeps humans bodies alive. Salt has impacted human history arguably more than any other substance on Earth.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. The gut is far more than just a food processor—it's intimately connected to our emotional well-being, nervous system function, and overall health. In this revealing conversation, Melissa and Bri unpack the complex relationship between our minds and digestive systems, offering insights that conventional medicine often overlooks.The hosts dive deep into the world of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and leaky gut syndrome. What makes this episode particularly valuable is the exploration of how our nervous system directly influences digestive function.  The hosts explain how oversensitive nerve endings in the digestive tract can transform normal digestive processes into painful experiences, and why childhood emotional trauma often manifests as adult gut problems. The homeopathic approach shines here as Melissa and Bri detail specific remedies that address both physical and emotional aspects of digestive disorders. Listeners will discover targeted solutions that address root causes rather than just symptoms. Whether you've struggled with digestive issues for years or simply want to understand the fascinating gut-brain connection better, this episode offers compassionate insight and practical tools to support your journey toward true gut health.

The National Library of Sweden is home to the largest medieval manuscript still in existence: an enormous, three-foot-tall Bible with an unusual portrait of the devil inside (along with a calendar, some spells, and a lengthy confession of the writer's sins and temptations). Legend has it that it was created by a monk under duress over the course of one evening… with some supernatural help. Check out more about the Codex Gigas online.

Can pills and powders really improve our health? Despite their clinical look, most supplements aren't tested with the scientific rigour we expect from medical treatments, and many don't live up to their promises. Today, we're joined by two of ZOE's top scientists to uncover the truth. They share groundbreaking new research and reveal the results of a brand new randomized controlled trial that could reshape how we think about supplements and introduce an entirely new kind. Tim Spector is one of the world's top 100 most cited scientists, a professor of epidemiology, and ZOE's scientific co-founder. He's joined by Dr. Sarah Berry, a world leading expert in large scale human nutrition studies, Professor of Nutrition at King's College London, and Chief Scientist at ZOE. By the end of this episode, you'll have the latest science to help you make informed decisions about supplements and understand what your gut health really needs in 2025.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Religions reporter Rossella Tercatin joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Nearly two years after the ancient, nearly complete Codex Sassoon bible was first introduced at the Anu Museum, days before the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack, the book of Torah is inaugurated at the museum, in the presence of released hostage Agam Berger, in a moving, bittersweet ceremony, tells Tercatin. Another ancient bible, the Shem Tov bible, this one only 700 years old, was also inaugurated permanently at the National Library of Israel, both in time for the Shavuot holiday. Tercatin also looks at the ongoing issues of conversion in Israel, following a meeting last week of the Knesset Aliyah Committee devoted to the topic of conversions on Tuesday, ahead of the Shavuot festival. Only about half of those who start the process to convert manage to complete the journey, and the Conversion Authority is currently formally without a director, leaving nobody can sign the official conversion certificates, complex matters that Tercatin discusses. Steinberg talks about an art exhibit currently at Kibbutz Ramat Yohanan, marking the 80th anniversary of the kibbutz's Shavuot ceremony, created by two pioneering kibbutz members in the 1940s to mark the agricultural and harvest aspects of the festival. Finally, Tercatin discusses the Messianic community in Israel, and its connection to Yaron Lischinsky, the Israel Embassy staffer who was killed alongside his soon-to-be-fiance, Sarah Milgrim, on May 21 in an antisemitic attack at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC.
