He shares his journey from traditional medicine to a holistic approach, emphasizing the importance of health span over lifespan. Key points discussed include:* Prioritize health span: Focus on quality of life, not just quantity of years.* Combat inflammation: Adopt lifestyle habits to reduce cellular stress.* Activate natural healing: Leverage sleep, exercise, and nutrition for regeneration.Listen to the podcast for the full conversation.Unlocking Longevity: Dr. Jeff Gross on Extending Health SpanWhen you listen to Dr. Jeff Gross in conversation with Jürgen Strauss, you quickly realize this isn't just another chat about living longer. It's a masterclass in living better for longer—a distinction that's both subtle and profound. Dr. Gross, a pioneering neurological surgeon turned regenerative medicine specialist, brings a refreshing blend of scientific rigor and practical wisdom to the table.At its heart, this conversation is about empowering listeners to activate their body's natural healing and longevity mechanisms. Dr. Gross and Jürgen Strauss explore not just how to add years to life, but how to fill those years with health, energy, and meaning.Key Takeaways* The distinction between lifespan and health span is crucial; the goal is not just to live longer, but to live healthier for longer. [0:01:30]* Chronic inflammation is the common pathway for most age-related decline; suppressing it is central to healthy longevity. [0:05:30]* Regenerative medicine leverages both ancient wisdom and modern science, focusing on natural healing, stem cells, and anti-inflammatory strategies. [0:07:00]* Sleep, exercise, and hormesis (beneficial stress) are foundational for activating the body's own regenerative capacity. [0:16:00]* Nutrition, especially minimizing processed foods and sugars while prioritizing protein, healthy fats, and micronutrients, is medicine for longevity. [0:36:00]* Anyone, regardless of current health, can benefit from adopting small, consistent longevity habits. [0:29:30]The Journey from Neurosurgery to Regenerative MedicineDr. Gross's professional journey is as inspiring as it is instructive. He began in the high-stakes world of neurosurgery, but it was his patients' questions and needs that nudged him toward regenerative medicine. He realized that fixing what's broken isn't enough; true healing means addressing the root causes. This shift wasn't about abandoning science, but about expanding it—embracing both cutting-edge research and time-tested wisdom from around the world. [0:01:30]The Science of Aging: Inflammation, Stem Cells, and the Body's Natural WisdomDr. Gross has a gift for making the complex simple. He explains that chronic inflammation is the silent saboteur of healthy aging, quietly eroding our vitality. Stem cells, meanwhile, are the body's natural repair crew—ready to leap into action if we give them the right environment. He draws on both modern biochemistry and ancient traditions, showing that the best solutions often blend old and new. [0:05:30] [0:07:00]Practical Strategies for Extending Health SpanWhat's truly empowering is how actionable Dr. Gross's advice is. Sleep, exercise, and hormesis (those little, beneficial stresses like cold showers or fasting) are all within reach. He doesn't preach perfection; instead, he encourages small, sustainable changes that add up over time. It's about building habits, not chasing hacks. The message: start where you are, and keep moving forward. [0:16:00] [0:29:30]Nutrition as Medicine: What to Eat, What to Avoid, and Why It MattersFood, in Dr. Gross's world, is both fuel and medicine. He urges us to minimize processed foods and sugars, and to embrace proteins, healthy fats, and micronutrients. It's not about deprivation, but about making choices that support our body's natural resilience. He reminds us that every meal is an opportunity to invest in our future health. [0:36:00]Mental Wellbeing and the Mind-Body ConnectionDr. Gross doesn't neglect the mind. He highlights the importance of sleep, breathwork, and stress management—not as afterthoughts, but as pillars of health. Simple practices, like deep breathing or mindful movement, can have outsized effects on our well-being. He's candid about his own journey, admitting he's not a meditation guru, but he's always learning and experimenting. [0:33:00]The Future of Regenerative Medicine: Hope, Innovation, and EmpowermentLooking ahead, Dr. Gross is optimistic. He sees regenerative medicine moving toward prevention, root-cause solutions, and less reliance on surgery or pharmaceuticals. The future, he believes, is about empowering individuals to take charge of their health, with science and tradition working hand in hand. It's a vision that's both hopeful and practical—a roadmap for anyone ready to invest in a longer, healthier, more vibrant life. [0:48:00]Action Items* Start or increase regular exercise, even if it's just walking—movement is the most accessible longevity tool. [0:50:30]* Add one new longevity habit: floss daily, try a cold shower, or introduce sublingual melatonin at bedtime. [0:31:00]* Reevaluate your nutrition: reduce processed foods and sugars, increase protein and healthy fats, and treat food as medicine. [0:36:00]* Track your sleep and experiment with improvements—consider a wearable or app, but always check in with how you feel. [0:22:00]* Share feedback or questions with the podcast host to guide future deep-dives on topics that resonate. [0:49:30]Next Steps* Explore more about regenerative medicine and Dr. Gross's work at recelebrate.com [0:49:00]* Consider which longevity habits you can implement this week—start small, but start now. [0:50:30]* If interested in specific topics (e.g., hormone optimization, stem cell therapies, mental health strategies), suggest them for future episodes. [0:49:30]SummaryDr. Jeff Gross's conversation is a breath of fresh air in the world of health and longevity. He combines expertise with empathy, and science with soul. If you're ready to rethink what's possible for your own health span, his insights are a great place to start.

Could our healthcare system be making us sicker rather than healthier? In the UK, autism diagnoses have increased by a staggering 787% between 1998 and 2018, and one in five people now has some form of mental health disorder. But what if some of our health struggles aren't diseases to be cured, but normal human experiences being medicalised? This week, I'm joined by Dr Suzanne O'Sullivan, a consultant in clinical neurophysiology and neurology at The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, who specialises in the investigation of complex epilepsy and also has an active interest in psychogenic disorders.  Her latest book, The Age of Diagnosis: Sickness, Health, and Why Medicine Has Gone Too Far, aims to challenge long-held assumptions about medical progress and change the way we think about our health.  In this thought-provoking conversation, we explore: Why giving someone a diagnosis is never neutral – it can fundamentally change how a person views themselves, their body and their future possibilities How the definition of autism has dramatically expanded over the past few decades from its original concept of "extreme autistic aloneness" to now potentially including 1 in 20 children in Northern Ireland Why screening for diseases like prostate cancer can lead to unnecessary treatment The potential problems of genetic testing - when results are misinterpreted or used without proper context, especially with tests that aren't clinical grade Why early detection and treatment aren't always better, particularly when it turns healthy people into patients decades before they might develop symptoms The profound story of how Suzanne diagnosed a rare genetic condition in a 15-year-old girl, only to question whether she had actually done the right thing by medicalising someone who believed herself to be healthy This is a nuanced, compassionate discussion that challenges many of the widely held assumptions in modern healthcare and I would urge you to listen with an open mind. Throughout our conversation, Suzanne emphasises that she's not arguing against the existence of these conditions or suggesting everyone should refuse diagnosis. Rather, she encourages both patients and doctors to consider whether medicalising our struggles is always the right approach. I hope you enjoy listening.   Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

In this episode of Bioethics in the Margins, we delve into the topic of capital punishment by nitrogen gas. Dr. Robert Glatter is Editor at Large for Medscape Emergency Medicine and Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. Dr. Peter Papadakos is Professor of Anesthesiology, Surgery, Neurology and Neurosurgery at the University of Rochester, and a Professor of Internal Medicine at Mercer University School of Medicine. Drs. Papadakos and Glatter dissect the harsh realities of suffering and injustice surrounding the execution of Kenneth Smith in Alabama, the first person executed using nitrogen gas. They explore what nitrogen is and its physiological effects and reflect on the inhumane nature of nitrogen hypoxia. The conversation also touches upon the broader issues of botched executions, delayed executions as psychological torture, the absence of definitive DNA evidence in some death row cases. They highlight the point that both the American Medical Association and the American Society of Anesthesiologists as well as many nursing associations state that participating in executions is not the practice of medicine and is prohibited by their members. This means that executions are conducted by non-medical personnel. They also point out that delaying executions, sometimes for decades, falls under the definition of torture under the Geneva conventions. This conversation poses the question; if our society continues to condone these practices, are we civilized?The JAMA editorial mentioned during the podcast can be found here: Evidence Against Use of Nitrogen for the Death Penalty | Neurology | JAMA | JAMA Network

We saw so many people die as a level 1 trauma center so there was so much emotional baggage that we carry as doctors through that, but I never faltered. It was always 'this is what I want to do, this is what I was born to do,' and that moment when I was verbally attacked at this grand rounds, that questioned everything to me about my choices in neurosurgery."This episode is with Dr. Sheri Dewan, a board certified neurosurgeon practicing in Chicago. In this episode we talk about:- Sheri's inspiration behind becoming a neurosurgeon- Talking with her husband while they were dating about what it would look like for the two of them to get married and her have a career in neurosurgery- How she dealt with the numerous people who told her she couldn't be a neurosurgeon- Having her children in residency training- The pivotal moment in which an attending clearly didn't want her in the residency program, publicly humiliated her and how that was the first time she thought about quitting- The support of her parents, husband and mentors that carried her through- The times in training when she might go several days where she only saw her children while they were asleep- Writing her memoir, Cutting A Path- Doing pro-bono surgeries in India, another thing people told her she couldn't do or would no longer have the desire to do after finishing her training- And so much more! Connect with Moms of Medicine:- Instagram @moms_of_medicine- Momsofmedicine@gmail.comConnect with Dr. Dewan:- Instagram  @drsheridewan- drsheridewan.com- Grab a copy of her book, Cutting A Path

In this episode, we journey through the remarkable career of Dr. Rees Cosgrove—a trailblazer in functional neurosurgery, Director of Epilepsy and Functional Neurosurgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Professor of Neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School.Dr. Cosgrove reflects on his formative years training in the very halls that were roamed by legends such as Wilder Penfield at the Montreal Neurological Institute, and takes us through pivotal chapters of his career leading programs at Massachusetts General Hospital, Brown University, and now the Brigham. With a repertoire that spans from the golden era of ablative neurosurgery to modern deep brain stimulation and MR-guided focused ultrasound—where he has performed over 600 sonications—Dr. Cosgrove provides a unique perspective on how the field has transformed over the past several decades.Throughout the conversation, we delve into the history and resurgence of surgical lesions for psychiatric and neurological conditions, the nuances of neuromodulation technologies, and the evolution of imaging that now defines precision in brain surgery. Dr. Cosgrove also shares his views on mentorship, the transmission of surgical wisdom, and how we can preserve the disappearing art of lesioning in an age increasingly dominated by stimulation.Whether you're a neurosurgeon, neuroscientist, or simply curious about how we interface with the brain to treat disease, this episode is a rare and insightful look into the mind of one of the field's most experienced and thoughtful pioneers.

The secret to scoring a 170 on the LSAT? Don't finish the section—just slow down and focus on accuracy. Ben and Nathan share an excerpt from their new book, The LSAT Is Easy, that breaks down what it takes to reach score milestones. They also unpack common admissions gimmicks, share tips from a departing demon, and host another round of the Personal Statement Gong Show.Study with our Free PlanDownload our iOS appWatch Episode 503 on YouTube0:37 - The LSAT Is EasyBen and Nathan explain why the LSAT isn't as difficult as it seems. Rushing through questions leads to repeated mistakes, not progress. They encourage slowing down, focusing on accuracy, and carefully solving each question. The episode also introduces their new, budget-friendly book. Improving your score starts with doing questions right, not doing more of them.19:33 – Marketing gimmicks Law schools use tactics like seat deposit deadlines and “priority waitlists” to pressure applicants into accepting full-price offers. Ben and Nathan explain how these strategies work, why they don't reflect actual capacity, and how they help schools find eager, full-paying students.  Their advice?  Ignore the pressure. Focus on scholarships and long-term results.40:50 – Why didn't Ben enjoy his job in the justice department? Ben recalls his time at the DOJ, where much of his work involved revising boilerplate from other lawyers. They also discuss clerkships—what they entail, how they differ, and why federal ones are more significant. For more on clerkships, check out Thinking LSAT Episode 418, Demystifying Federal Clerkships.43:53 – You Don't Need to Explain Every Wrong Answer. Some students waste time trying to explain every wrong answer. Ben and Nathan suggest it's more useful to understand the logic behind the correct ones and focus your review on the questions you missed. The point isn't to memorize everything—it's to build real understanding.48:23 – Personal Statement Gong ShowAngel shares a personal statement for critique. Ben and Nathan emphasize that it needs to focus squarely on the applicant. Highlighting anything other than your skills wastes space that should be used to show why you will succeed in law school and the legal profession. 1:09:16 - Tips from a Departing DemonBlake shares two pieces of advice: every word on the LSAT counts, and practice doesn't make perfect—just better. Ben and Nathan agree with another student who reminds listeners not to take the test until they're truly ready.1:14:16 - Word of the Week - Concomitant"Neurosurgery seemed to present the most challenging and direct confrontation with meaning, identity, and death. Concomitant with the enormous responsibilities they shouldered, neurosurgeons were also masters of many fields: Neurosurgery, ICU Medicine, neurology, radiology."

The eustachian tube connects the middle ear to the nasopharynx (back of the nose). It helps aerate the middle ear as well as equalizing pressure such as when flying in an airplane. Sometimes the eustachian tube does not function as it is supposed to and sometimes this may be related to concurrent nasal and sinus issues.

Dr Suzanne O'Sullivan, Consultant in Neurology in The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London has written a new book, ‘The Age of Diagnosis' in which she says, in her 30 years of being a doctor, she has observed a rise in overdiagnosis, overmedicalisation and ‘diagnosis creep' in areas like autism, ADHD and depression.

Neurosurgery is known as one of the most precise and demanding specialties in medicine. It requires absolute technical mastery in a surgical field where a millimeter's difference can be the deciding factor between lifelong disability or a life restored. But what happens when a surgeon trained to be objective and detached experiences deep personal loss? How does it reshape the way they practice medicine? In this episode, we are joined by Joseph “Jody” Stern, MD, a neurosurgeon and the author of Grief Connects Us: A Neurosurgeon's Lessons on Love, Loss, and Compassion (2021). His book is an honest, deep, personal reflection on how losing his sister shattered the emotional armor he had built as a surgeon — and in doing so, made him a better doctor. Over the course of this conversation, Dr. Stern discusses the complexity of neurosurgery and what it teaches about the fragility of life; why the way we talk to patients and families matters just as much as the procedures we perform; how his own grief changed the way he approaches medicine; and the pressure in medicine to stay emotionally detached and why that might actually be harming both doctors and patients. This is a conversation that extends beyond grief. It's about how we, as doctors, patients, and people, can show up for each other in ways that truly matter.In this episode, you'll hear about:  2:37 - How Dr. Stern became drawn to neurosurgery and what has kept him in the field 6:00 - Dr. Stern's quest to integrate palliative care into neurosurgery 10:06 - Why medical training often makes it hard for trainees to remember their humanistic calling15:54 - The importance of shifting medical training to focus to more on patient-centered care23:41 - Rethinking medicine to better honor the humanity of the patient 31:41 - Developing “emotional agility” as a physician 37:09 - The personal and professional insights that Dr. Stern experienced when he helped his sister through her battle with leukemia 47:47 - How to overcome compassion fatigue54:15 - Dr. Stern's advice for new clinicians Visit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

They have the skill set to handle complex tumors and they work hand –in hand with our colleagues in otolaryngology. They discuss these tumors preoperatively. They consider all of the options. They have the latest equipment. And I believe what sets us apart is that we have the right people with the right focus who can get along and work well together.”

With rates of Alzheimer's and dementia rising steeply, especially among women, the conventional pharmaceutical model has largely failed in treating the brain. Functional Medicine takes a different systems-based, personalized approach—focusing on inflammation, metabolic health, and environmental exposures—which offers real hope for prevention and even reversal of cognitive decline. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Heather Sandison, Dr. David Perlmutter, and Maria Shriver, why it is possible to reverse cognitive decline and the cutting-edge science of brain health and Alzheimer's prevention. Dr. Heather Sandison is the The New York Times bestselling author of Reversing Alzheimer's The New Toolkit to Improve Cognition and Protect Brain Health. As a renowned naturopathic doctor specializing in neurocognitive medicine, she's the founder of Solcere Health Clinic, San Diego's premier brain optimization clinic, and Marama, a residential program turning memory care into memory recovery. Dr. Sandison has dedicated her career to supporting those suffering with dementia and published her most recent clinical findings in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease. She's excited to shatter common misconceptions about Alzheimer's and share what she's learned about keeping your brain sharp at any age. Dr. David Perlmutter is a Board-Certified Neurologist and five-time New York Times bestselling author. He serves on the Board of Directors and is a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition. He is the author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid, among others. Dr. Perlmutter received his M.D. degree from the University of Miami School of Medicine where he was awarded the Leonard G. Rowntree Research Award. He serves as a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and has published extensively in peer-reviewed scientific journals including Archives of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and The Journal of Applied Nutrition. Shriver is a bestselling author, award-winning journalist, former First Lady of California, founder of the Women's Alzheimer's Movement, and Strategic Advisor on Women's Health and Alzheimer's at Cleveland Clinic. Shriver works to use her voice and platforms to advance some of our nation's most pressing issues affecting women and women's health. In November 2023, Shriver joined the President and the First Lady to announce the first-ever White House Initiative on Women's Health Research, an effort led by Dr. Biden and the White House Gender Policy Council, to galvanize the Federal government and the private and philanthropic sectors to spur innovation, unleash transformative investment to close research gaps, and improve women's health. Shriver's advocacy led to the establishment of this historic initiative, and she continues to advise and collaborate with Dr. Biden. She is also the co-founder of the brain health and wellness brand MOSH and founder of Shriver Media. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.
