How do you socialize without alcohol? If this question has ever crossed your mind, you're not alone. Nisha spent years using alcohol to cope with life's challenges, from fitting in socially to relaxing after a long day. It was always there for her, a crutch in moments of loneliness and stress. But just two days into The Alcohol Experiment, something shifted. The internal tug of war she'd struggled with for years—between wanting to quit and the comfort alcohol provided—came to an end. In this episode, Nisha shares her journey to alcohol freedom, the identity struggles she faced, and how she learned to find joy and meaningful connections without alcohol. Her story is proof that sometimes the hardest part is just taking that first step—and how everything can change once you do. In this episode, Coach Cole and Nisha discuss : Nisha's 25-year relationship with alcohol as a coping mechanism The emotional and social struggles of drinking to fit in and relieve stress The internal tug of war: wanting to quit but feeling stuck with alcohol How alcohol became a crutch during tough times like loneliness, depression, and work stress The pivotal moment two days into The Alcohol Experiment when everything shifted Overcoming the fear of socializing without alcohol The role of identity and how alcohol affected Nisha's sense of self How The Alcohol Experiment helped Nisha realize the physical toll alcohol was taking on her body Learning to enjoy social events without the pressure to drink Nisha's advice for anyone struggling with the idea of living without alcohol How she now enjoys socializing with non-alcoholic optionsChoosing the "harder" immediate path for long-term benefits. Her message to her past self: "You don't need it, and you're not alone."And much more… Episode links:The Alcohol Experiment - alcoholexperiment.com Related Episodes: Alcohol & Older Adults, What We Need To Know - Reader Question -  E152 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-152-reader-question-alcohol-and-older-adults-2/  How Do I Become Socially Confident Without Alcohol? - Reader Question - E582 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-582-readers-question-how-do-i-become-socially-confident-without-alcohol Beyond the Bottle: Finding a Fulfilling Life Using The Alcohol Experiment - Lisa's Naked Life - E812 - https://thisnakedmind.com/using-the-alcohol-experiment-to-quit-drinking-e812/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?  Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.

Tendons adapt to training, but the mechanisms are complex. The Berlin Method emphasizes high loads for tendon adaptation. Muscle strength is important, but technique and application matter more. Calf muscles are notoriously difficult to grow in strength. Tendons require time to recover and adapt to training loads. Creep studies on tendons are often conducted in mechanical settings, not in vivo. Tendon strain measurements can vary significantly based on methodology. Individual differences in tendon response necessitate personalized training. Females may experience different tendon adaptations compared to males.

Age Diversity in the Workplace: Benefits, Challenges, and Strategies for EmployersIn this episode of Looking Forward Our Way, Brett and Carol are joined by Dr. Jennifer Crittenden, Assistant Professor of Social Work at the University of Maine and Associate Director for Research at the University of Maine Center on Aging. The focus is on the challenges and opportunities facing older adults as they transition into paid employment, and particularly on how volunteerism can act as a bridge to help them re-enter the workforce.Dr. Crittenden began by sharing her background in gerontology and her early research in older adult volunteerism. She noticed a fascinating trend: some older volunteers were leaving their unpaid roles because they needed or wanted to return to paid employment. This observation set her on a research path to better understand how older adults juggle different responsibilities—such as caregiving, volunteering, and work—and whether skills gained in volunteer opportunities could support their move into paid roles.Through a study funded by AmeriCorps, Dr. Crittenden discovered that many older adults indeed use volunteer experiences as a stepping stone back into employment—even if the volunteer programs themselves weren't specifically designed for that purpose. This realization led her and other researchers to ponder whether volunteerism could actually become a structured pathway to employment for seniors. Furthermore, her research highlighted the “spillover effect”: skills acquired through both in-person and virtual volunteering frequently enhanced other aspects of life, such as caregiving or community engagement.The partnership with AmeriCorps became more formalized when, in 2022, Dr. Crittenden's center was approached to help study a new round of demonstration grants focusing on workforce development for older adults. This new initiative required participants to integrate volunteerism into their program design, with the ultimate goal of aiding older adults in securing sustainable employment. Seven different pilot programs across the country were set up, each distinct in its local approach but unified in combining volunteer experience, community service, training, mentorship, and employment support.What makes this research so groundbreaking is its focus on identifying the “secret recipe”—the common elements across all seven pilot programs that effectively support older adults' transition to sustainable employment. The data, collected from over 150 participants in the first round, helps the researchers understand what motivates seniors, what keeps them engaged, and what drives successful placement into jobs.Looking at the demographics, the majority of participants were women (about 72%), which reflects broader trends in volunteerism. Most were between the ages of 60 and 70—prime years for retirement or semi-retirement—but the programs included participants up to 85. A striking finding was that many lived alone and were single, divorced, or widowed, implying a significant financial need to supplement single-income households.In terms of the nature of work, the positions targeted by these programs were generally paraprofessional roles—such as paralegals or early childhood educators—that often required participants to complete some form of certification or additional training. This requirement, while presenting barriers for some, helped others gain clear pathways into employment that matched their interests and skillsets.Motivation to participate in these programs was largely financial, but the data showed that earning new skills, having a sense of purpose, giving back to the community, and building social connections were also major drivers. This mirrors what we see among younger job seekers, emphasizing that these needs...

If you've ever doubted your ability to make muscle mass and strength gains after menopause, this episode is for you. It's not too late to gain strength and lean muscle mass can be gained at any age—even after 85.   Based on a 2024 Study on Resistance Training in Older Adults by Int. Journal of Sports Nutrition & Exercise Metabolism, here's what happened and the results: Participants:  17 adults aged 65–75. 12 adults aged 85+. Program:  Duration: 12 weeks, 3x per week Structure: Warm-up  4 lower body sets 3 upper body exercises (2 sets each) Stretching Results: Quadriceps strength increased in all participants 65–75 group: 1–18%  85+ group: 6–21%  1RM leg extension increased in all participants 65–75 group: 38% ± 20%  85+ group: 46% ± 14%  Improvements were seen in lean mass, strength and functional activities like chair stands, gait speed, timed up-and-go.   Defining Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause Exercise intensity is based on decreasing repetitions to muscular fatigue.  Exercise volume is based on the number of sets.   Considerations for Exercise Volume in Women in Menopause Volume = sets x reps x weight or total weekly workload. Start small (1–2 sets, 2x per week if inactive). Build to 3x only once consistent. Balance recovery: not just alternating workout/rest days, but also factoring in life stress. Menopausal women may need 48–72 hours between resistance sessions, per muscle group.   For women post menopause; increasing the number of days per week to reach greater exercise volume can be problematic because of the need for balance with recovery days. We don't mean 1 day work, 1 day rest. It can mean 1 day of high intensity work and 2 or 3 days light or moderate exercise for another type for recovery.   Start Your Strength Gains After Menopause The beginning phases of exercise should last longer for a woman starting in her 60s or 70s. Muscle, ligaments and tendons collectively are not as resilient at 60 as they were at 20. Since most early improvements are due to neural adaptations and heavier weights don't accelerate that, progress at a pace so you know you've exercised muscles but aren't sore or uncomfortable. You're in this for life. There's time.   The adaptive response to resistance training is preserved even in males and females over 85.   Protein & Resistance Training Two drivers of muscle protein synthesis: Resistance Training Adequate Protein. For metabolic health: ~100g/day (for 160 lb woman). For optimal fitness: closer to 160g/day. Protein recommendation for a 160lb adult is 60 grams of protein day. Only 46% of older adults get that.   5-Step Protein & Resistance Training Process: Track your current protein intake. Compare with recommendations based on age, weight, activity. Identify gaps without judgment. Close the gap gradually. Set short-term goals, especially starting with breakfast protein.   Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause are Dependent On… Relative Strength Training Power decreased significantly after the age of 50 years and was negatively and strongly associated with mobility limitations.   Mobility & Longevity Connection Strength must be paired with mobility to prevent limitations. Key focus areas: ankles, hips, upper back. Loss of mobility = harder to regain later. More… much more on mobility in upcoming posts.

“The Wisdom of Older Adults" // EP 3: Compassion w/ Barbara Adams & Krisy Kuo

This week Bobbi Conner talks with MUSC's Dr. Joshua Mixson about the many benefits of exercise and strength training specifically for older adults.

Chiropractic care is making a real impact for older adults—especially in underserved communities. In this episode, we dive into a new study from the Canadian Journal on Aging, showing that patients aged 45 to 93 experienced a 35% reduction in pain after receiving chiropractic care. Even those with complex health challenges experienced meaningful improvements, and nearly 9 out of 10 older adults avoided a primary care visit thanks to chiropractic treatment. This research proves that chiropractic isn't just effective—it's a game-changer for both patients and the healthcare system.Episode Notes: Utilization of Chiropractic Services among Older Adults with Spine Pain at a Publicly Funded Canadian Healthcare FacilityLeander Tables- Save $1,000 on the Series 950 Table using the code EBC2025 — their most advanced flexion-distraction tablePatient Pilot by The Smart Chiropractor is the fastest, easiest to generate weekly patient reactivations on autopilot…without spending any money on advertising.

BUFFALO, NY — August 26, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 17, Issue 7 of Aging (Aging-US) on July 21, 2025, titled “Association of DNA methylation age acceleration with digital clock drawing test performance: the Framingham Heart Study.” In this study, led by first author Zexu Li from the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at Boston University Chobanian and Avedisian School of Medicine, and corresponding author Chunyu Liu from Boston University Chobanian and Avedisian School of Medicine and Boston University School of Public Health, researchers found that individuals with signs of faster biological aging had lower scores on a digital cognitive test taken seven years later. The findings suggest that the rate at which a person ages at the molecular level may be associated with how well their brain functions as they grow older. Using data from the Framingham Heart Study, the researchers examined the relationship between biological aging and cognitive health. They used DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns—chemical changes that occur in the DNA with aging, known as epigenetic aging—to estimate biological age acceleration, and used the digital Clock Drawing Test (dCDT) to assess cognitive performance. The dCDT is a computerized version of a traditional pen-and-paper test that evaluates memory, thinking speed, and motor control. It provides an overall score and measures performance in specific areas such as spatial reasoning and movement. Among 1,789 participants, higher levels of epigenetic age acceleration were associated with significantly lower cognitive scores, particularly those over age 65. Of all the epigenetic aging markers examined, the DunedinPACE measure showed the strongest association with reduced brain function in both younger and older adults. Other measures, such as Horvath and PhenoAge, were associated with lower scores only in older adults. Key areas affected included motor skills and spatial reasoning. The researchers also studied blood-based protein markers used in an aging measure called GrimAge. Two proteins, PAI1 and ADM, were closely associated with lower cognitive scores, especially in older individuals. These results suggest that declines in brain and motor functions may reflect broader aging-related changes throughout the body. “Digital cognitive measures displayed stronger associations with most DNAm aging metrics among older compared to younger participants, likely to reflect the cumulative and nonlinear age influences on both brain health and DNAm.” This study supports the idea that epigenetic age may be a more accurate predictor of cognitive decline than chronological age. The dCDT, which is easy to use, automated, and more precise than traditional tools, may help detect early signs of brain aging. When combined with DNAm measures, it could become a valuable part of regular health screenings. Overall, the findings provide strong evidence that faster biological aging is associated with cognitive decline. This research may lead to better ways of identifying and monitoring brain health in aging populations.

Dr. Kathryn Kennedy is a psychiatrist specializing in older adults at Brentwood Hospital talks about the signs and symptoms of depression in the older adult population, which differs widely from the symptoms in younger adults. She also discusses common risk factors and treatment options available. 

What if caring for the elderly is a mutual gift? Our older community members have wisdom from years of experience, while we can offer them energy, compassion, and companionship in return. Revering and caring for them benefits us all.Questions for Reflection:   1. The biblical mandate to care for others is very clear. In what ways do you enjoy helping care for others?2. When caring for others, especially older adults, what kind of support could benefit (or would have benefited) you in that endeavor? 3. How might God be inviting you to support our Older Adult care ministries at church?Find out more at HydeParkUMC.org/NextSteps

Discover why the standard B12 test might be missing your deficiency, and learn the better biomarkers that could reveal if brain fog, fatigue, and cognitive decline are actually nutrition-related rather than age-related.In this deep dive with Dr. Martin Warren, Chief Scientific Officer at the Quadrum Institute and leading B12 researcher, we explore why vitamin B12 deficiency is far more common and complex than most people realize. Dr. Warren explains why standard B12 blood tests are unreliable (with only 50/50 accuracy for detecting deficiency), why the current deficiency cutoff of 148 picomolar may be too low, and how homocysteine and methylmalonic acid are better indicators of functional B12 status. He reveals that B12 deficiency can masquerade as normal aging—causing brain fog, fatigue, and cognitive decline—but is often reversible with proper treatment. The discussion covers why plant-based diets create deficiency risks, how absorption changes with age due to intrinsic factor decline, the connection between B12 and brain health (including white matter damage), and practical testing and supplementation strategies. Dr. Warren also makes a compelling case for revolutionizing healthcare through regular micronutrient monitoring rather than waiting for disease symptoms to appear.

FALL Podcast 2025 // “The Wisdom of Older Adults" // S10 EP1 PREVIEW EPISODE with Krisy Kuo

In a recent interview with Steve Gurney of the Positive Aging Community, registered nurses Elisabeth Mack and Sherri Mack shared their expertise on plant-based therapy, specifically cannabis and hemp-derived products, for older adults. With decades of nursing experience, both have transitioned from traditional medical settings to pioneering the use of cannabinoids to improve quality of life, particularly for seniors. Their company, Holistic Caring and The Green Nurse, offers education, coaching, and consulting to help individuals navigate this evolving field Bloom Hemp CBD, their sister company, specializes in organic hemp-based CBD formulas tailored to target specific symptoms. They also provide free access to a nurse hotline and personalized care plans to support your wellness journey.Personal Journeys to Plant-Based MedicineElisabeth Mack, MBA, BSN, RN, discovered cannabis as medicine after a bicycle accident left her reliant on high doses of ibuprofen and muscle relaxants. Introduced to CBD through a topical massage at her chiropractor's office, she experienced reduced inflammation and pain after adding CBD extracts to her supplement regimen, prompting her to research cannabis extensively. This led to her book, Cannabis for Health: Become a Coach, and the development of training programs for healthcare professionals, nurses and patients.Sherri Mack, BSN, RN, widely known as The Green Nurse, experienced a life-altering health crisis in 2012 that left her hospitalized in the ICU and dependent on numerous pharmaceuticals. Her turning point came when a 70-year-old nurse introduced her to cannabis, which enabled her to transition off 18 medications. Motivated to empower others through her experience, Sherri founded The Green Nurse. In 2021, she joined forces with Elisabeth's Holistic Caring, creating a robust educational platform called Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse. This platform features a free network designed to help individuals adopt, optimize, and maintain holistic approaches to health and wellness using plant medicines.Cannabis nursing has emerged as a recognized specialty, officially endorsed by the American Nurses Association in 2023. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing now requires nurses to be educated on cannabis as a form of medicine. Key resources, such as Cannabis: A Handbook for Nurses (featuring Chapter 9, "The Cannabis Nurse Experience," co-authored by Sherri) and Elisabeth's book, offer valuable professional training. Their comprehensive 30-unit health coach program empowers nurses to incorporate cannabis therapy into their practice, broadening access to this specialized care.Elisabeth and Sherri Mack are transforming how older adults approach plant-based therapy, offering a compassionate, evidence-based alternative to traditional pharmaceuticals. By combining their nursing expertise with personalized coaching, they empower seniors to manage pain, enhance well-being, and live their best lives. For those interested, their resources at Holistic Caring and Bloom Hemp provide a trusted starting point to explore this natural option.For more information, visit Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse  https://holisticcaring.com/ or contact their free nurse line at 970-404-HOPE(4673) to begin your journey with plant-based therapy.

There are a variety of areas where ethical issues can emerge when working with older adults: complex family dynamics, end-of-life wishes, preserving dignity and respect, promoting independence, and keeping the individual safe. When these issues arise, it can be challenging to navigate the best course of action. Learn about ethical principles that can guide professionals in the support of older adults and their families. Learning about these principles and ethical decision-making models can help people to understand how to reduce the risk of harm, how to advocate for the older adult, and how to report issues to the proper authorities when necessary.

It's time for another episode of Ask Me Anything. Dawn and Ken answer listener questions that range from generative AI to whether grip strength is a biomarker for longevity and the potential of ketamine as a treatment for depression. Dawn also gives a brief overview of work she is doing with the deep-sea technology company Deep. As a special treat at the end of today's episode, Dawn plays a recording of the commencement speech that Ken recently gave at the University of West Florida. As the saying goes, you don't want to miss it. Show notes: [00:02:18] Ken starts off the episode with a listener question about whether Dawn and Ken read print books or digital, the reason being that a listener recently came across an article that claimed digital screens are rewiring our brains. [00:05:32] A listener asks about a paper titled “Grip Strength An Indispensable Biomarker for Older Adults” which claims that the ability to hang from a bar for 60 seconds for men, and 30 seconds for women, indicates that a person is likely to live longer. The paper claims that a decline in grip strength is associated with adverse health consequences, and the listener asks Ken what advice he has for developing and maintaining grip strength. [00:10:20] A listener asks a question inspired by our recent interview with Dr. Frank Butler. The listener asks if Ken has heard about the FDA approved depression therapy, esketamine, which is a derivative of ketamine and is a long-standing therapy for depression. [00:12:37] A listener asks Ken about a 2023 paper in the journal Age and Aging titled “Higher Dietary Protein Intake is Associated with Sarcopenia in Older British Twins” [00:16:13] A listener asks Ken about “Whisper,” which is a transcription product from OpenAI. The listener explains that OpenAI disclaims that Whisper should not be used in high-risk domains. However, according to a story by the Associated Press titled “Researchers Say an AI Powered Transcription Tool Used in Hospitals Invents Things No One Ever Said,” medical centers have already begun to use the tool to transcribe physician consultations. The listener explains that, according to the article, the use of Whisper in these contexts has led to numerous ‘hallucinations' from the AI tool and the listener asks Ken what his thoughts are on how tools like Whisper should be integrated into various industries. [00:20:21] A listener asks for Ken's thoughts on a series of articles by Kevin Roose in The New York Times claiming that there is no reason to learn how to code and program because very soon AI will take over all coding. Mr. Roose also asserts that the time is soon approaching when we need to have discussions on what rights to grant sentient AI. [00:21:57] A listener asks Ken if he concurs with a report from the National Academy of Medicine titled “Generative Artificial Intelligence in Health and Medicine – Opportunities and Responsibilities for Transformative Innovation,” which notes that large language models (LLMs) hold huge promise for patient care and healthcare system workflows, as well as risks. The listener asks if Ken agrees with the report's claims that two areas in which we could see near term applications of LLMs are patient education and synthesis of information of electronic medical records. [00:23:35] As a follow up question, Ken is asked about the aforementioned report's discussion of the “digital twin” concept. A digital twin is a computational representation of a patient or disease that could be used to speed up virtual experiments or subgroup analysis of investigational agents that carry risk for real patients. [00:26:26] A listener asks for Ken's thoughts on a paper published in the journal of Nutrition Health and Aging titled “Effects of Vitamin D3 Omega 3 Fatty Acids and a Simple Home Exercise Program on Change in Physical Activity Among Generally Healthy and Active Older Adults.” The paper claims that among generally healthy,

What's the ideal blood pressure target for older adults with hypertension? Should we aim for a systolic BP of 120 mmHg in all older adults, as suggested by the SPRINT trial? Or should we be more flexible—especially for those who are frail or among the oldest old? This week on the GeriPal Podcast, we explore the nuances of managing blood pressure in older adults with our guests Dr. Mark Supiano, Dr. Mitra Jamshidian, and Dr. Simon Ascher.  Now, some of our astute GeriPal listeners may say, “wait, didn't you already talk about this with Mark Supiano in a 2017 podcast titled How Low Should We Go with Blood Pressure in Older Adults?”  Yes, we sure did, but we decided to revisit this topic as Mitra Jamshidian and Simon Ascher published a new JAGS research study focused on developing a framework to individualize the net benefit of intensive blood pressure control based on the results of the SPRINT trial.  Their key finding: most community-dwelling older adults in the SPRINT trial experienced greater benefits than harms from more aggressive blood pressure targets—even those who were older, frail, or on multiple medications. Join us for an in-depth discussion on balancing risks, benefits, and patient preferences in hypertension management for older adults. Plus, we might just sneak in a little Frank Sinatra for good measure.

 With polypharmacy on the rise, prescribing for older adults can be tricky, leading to increased risks of side effects and drug interactions. In today's episode, we'll explore how you can reduce medication risks in older adults with the Beers Criteria, a tool that helps you safely navigate these challenges and enhance your clinical practice for patients over 65.   In this episode, you'll learn which medications, from antidepressants to NSAIDs, should raise red flags and how the Beers Criteria can guide your decisions. We'll also talk about practical steps for de-prescribing and collaborating with other healthcare professionals to ensure your patients get the safest, most effective treatments.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://blog.npreviews.com/reduce-medication-risks-older-adults-beers-criteria
