#689: Most people think forgetting a name means their brain is failing.  Dr. Majid Fotuhi, a neurologist who taught at Johns Hopkins and Harvard, sees thousands of patients convinced they have Alzheimer's – only to discover they're dealing with poor sleep or stress. Dr. Fotuhi joins us to break down the difference between cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer's disease. He explains why chronic stress physically shrinks your hippocampus — the thumb-sized memory center in your brain — and how twelve weeks of lifestyle changes reversed cognitive decline in 84 percent of his patients. We talk about the five hidden taxes draining your brain: sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep, junk food, chronic stress and mental laziness. Scrolling social media after work counts as mental laziness, even if your day job involves intense focus. Dr. Fotuhi offers a different framework: five pillars that compound over time. Exercise ranks first because it multiplies mitochondria in your brain cells, reduces inflammation and generates new neurons in your hippocampus. Walking 10,000 steps daily cuts Alzheimer's risk by 50 percent. Sleep comes second. Your brain rinses itself during deep sleep, flushing out amyloid — the core protein in Alzheimer's disease. One night of poor sleep increases amyloid in your brain. We cover nutrition (skip the junk food debate), mindset (heart rate variability breathing reduces Alzheimer's footprints) and brain training. Dr. Fotuhi memorizes 70 names in a single lecture and explains his technique for remembering credit card numbers using mental imagery. The conversation covers London taxi drivers who grew their hippocampus by memorizing 10,000 streets, why stress management beats supplements, and how Swedish students learning Arabic increased their brain volume in three months.

"It's important to clarify that most patients will experience and at least some side effects—and often several. So prevention really means reducing severity, complications, and long-term impact rather than avoiding side effects altogether. This process starts before radiation begins and continues throughout the treatment and includes dental evaluation, baseline swallowing assessments, and thorough patient education," ONS member Astrid Amoresano, RN, OCN®, lead oncology nurse specialist at New York Proton Center in New York, NY, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about side effects of radiation for head and neck cancer.

Highlights From This Episode "Many tumors in the region are very radiosensitive, and radiation can be used either as definitive treatment or after surgery to reduce the risk of reoccurrence, but in many cases, radiation is combined with chemotherapy to improve local control. Because so many vital structures are located in this small complex area, radiation allows us to treat the cancer while minimizing the need for extensive or disfiguring surgery." TS 2:40 "The most common acute side effects of head and neck radiation: effects to the mouth, the throat, the skin, and the energy level. Patients often experience a mucositis, pain or sore throat, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, or thick saliva, and taste changes. Skin irritation and redness in the treatment field is also common and can progress to dry and moist desquamation. Fatigue is another frequent side effect and tends to build as treatment progresses. Emotional and psychological distress are also very common in this patient population and can have an impact on daily function and quality of life. Side effects usually develop gradually, often beginning in the second and third week of radiation and may be more severe or have an earlier onset in patients receiving concurrent chemotherapy." TS 4:02 "Pain management is essential so patients can continue eating and drinking. Supporting the energy level and maintaining hydration are also key, as fatigue and dehydration can significantly worsen other side effects. Oral care protocols help manage mucositis and nutrition support may include supplements or enteral feeding if needed." TS 11:24 "Sexual health might not be the first thing nurses think of in regard to head and neck radiation. … But even though radiation for head and neck cancer doesn't involve the reproductive organs, it can still have a significant impact on sexual health and intimacy. Like fatigue, pain, dry mouth, changes in speech and visible changes in appearance can all affect body image and relationships." TS 14:52 "One of the common misconceptions is that side effects end when radiation ends. In reality, some effects peak afterward or become long term. Xerostomia, or dry mouth, and taste changes are good examples. While some patients improve, others adjust to a new normal where dry mouth and altered taste are permanent." TS 19:53

Your fluoride toothpaste and antiseptic mouthwash may be sabotaging your cardiovascular health and canceling out the benefits of your daily workout. In today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Nathan Bryan to uncover how nitric oxide deficiency drives high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, insulin resistance, and even Alzheimer's disease. Nathan explains why 50% of men on Viagra don't respond with better erections, how mouthwash kills the bacteria your body needs to produce nitric oxide, and why heavy metals scavenge this critical molecule before it can reach your blood vessels.  We explore practical solutions such as using nitric oxide lozenges, reducing exposure to harmful substances, and supporting the oral microbiome to restore your body's natural production.   "Without nitric oxide, your body cannot heal. It's not going to get adequate blood flow, you're going to experience runaway inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune dysfunction." ~ Nathan Bryan   In This Episode: - Nitric oxide and its importance for our health - Nitric oxide and erectile dysfunction - Exercise and bacteria for nitric oxide production - Oral microbiome and dangers in your mouthwash - Signs and consequences of low nitric oxide - Age-related decline in nitric oxide production - Heavy metals and toxins that scavenge nitric oxide - How to restore nitric oxide - Nitric oxide lozenges and skin care solutions - The beet product myth debunked - High blood pressure medication limitations - Who needs nitric oxide supplementation?   Products & Resources Mentioned: N1O1 Nitric Oxide Lozenges: Available at https://n101.com  N1O1 Nitric Oxide Skincare Serum: Perfect for youthful skin maintenance at https://n101.com  Puori Grass Fed Whey Protein: Use code WENDY at http://Puori.com/wendy for 32% off, plus a free shaker with a subscription.

Some children can skip meals, miss sleep, or fight off a cold and barely flinch — while others spiral into meltdowns after the smallest stressor. In this episode, Dana Kay uncovers the hidden biological reason behind that difference: glutathione — the brain's primary antioxidant and stress buffer. Joined by world-renowned naturopathic physician and researcher Dr. Gina Nick, this episode breaks down glutathione (or "Vitamin G") in a way parents can finally understand. You'll learn how glutathione protects the brain from toxins and inflammation, why modern kids are more depleted than ever, and how low levels can drive ADHD symptoms, emotional dysregulation, and stress sensitivity. Drawing on decades of research, clinical practice, and formulation expertise, Dr. Nick explains detox pathways, NAC vs glutathione, safe supplementation, and why small daily detox actions matter more than extreme protocols. If your child's nervous system feels constantly overwhelmed — even when you're doing everything right — this episode fills in a critical missing piece.

Oral arguments Wednesday. Becky Hill's perjury in the record. The wrong legal standard potentially applied. And a defense team that now has the entire first trial transcript as a roadmap. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers to explain what both sides are actually facing if the Alex Murdaugh conviction is reversed — and why the practical reality of a retrial may be worse for the prosecution than the appeal itself.The defense is invoking Remmer v. United States, arguing that once improper contact between a state actor and jurors is established, prejudice is presumed. Justice Toal applied what appears to be a higher standard — requiring the defense to prove a juror actually changed their vote. Motta explains how appellate courts typically treat the application of an incorrect legal standard and whether this distinction is enough to reverse a conviction where the evidence of guilt was strong.If reversal happens, the defense walks into court knowing everything. Every witness, every exhibit, every decision the prosecution made. Motta explains how much of an advantage that is and what changes in round two. The biggest variable is whether a new judge limits the financial crimes testimony — the prosecution's "gathering storm" motive theory that the defense called a trial within a trial. Without it, this becomes a purely circumstantial murder case with significant forensic gaps.Harpootlian has publicly stated there is no DNA, no fingerprints, no blood on vehicles, clothes, or in the house. The prosecution had Maggie's DNA on a shotgun receiver and the kennel video placing Murdaugh at the scene after he lied. Motta explains how a defense team with three years of preparation dismantles both.Then there is the question nobody wants to ask. Murdaugh is serving 27 state and 40 federal on financial crimes.

A clinical conversation about the updated recommendations to enhance radiography safety in dentistry.  Special Guest: Dr. Erika Benavides  For more information, show notes and transcripts visit https://www.ada.org/podcast   Show Notes In this episode, we are having a clinical conversation about the updated recommendations to enhance radiography safety in dentistry.   We explore the major changes from previous guidelines, the rationale behind discontinuing patient shielding, the importance of patient‑centered imaging, and practical implications for dentists and academics.   Our guest is Dr. Erika Benavides, a Clinical Professor and Associate Chair of the Division of Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Radiology, and the Director of the CBCT Service at the University of Michigan, School of Dentistry. She is a Diplomate and Past President of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (ABOMR). She also served as Councilor for Communications of the American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and Chair of the Research and Technology Committee. Dr. Benavides is a Fellow of the American College of Dentists and has published multiple peer-reviewed manuscripts in the multidisciplinary aspects of diagnostic imaging. She has been a co-investigator in NIH funded grants for the past 10 years and recently served as the Chair of the expert panel to update the 2012 ADA/FDA recommendations for dental radiography. Her clinical practice is dedicated to interpretation of 2D and 3D dentomaxillofacial imaging.    The two-part recommendations were updated by an expert panel which included radiologists, general and pediatric dentists, a public health specialist, and consultants from nearly every dental specialty.  Dr. Benavides shares some of the main takeaways and new updates is that that lead aprons and radiation collars are no longer recommended. This recommendation includes all dental maxillofacial imaging procedures and applies to most patients.  Also, a recommendation to avoid routine or convenience imaging, and focus instead of patient-centered imaging, based on the patients' specific needs. And, when possible, previous radiographs should be obtained.   Dr. Benavides shares that imaging must be patient‑specific, not protocol-driven, and encourages dentists to ask the following questions before dental imaging: "Do we need this additional information? Is this additional information going to change my diagnosis, or it's going to contribute to the diagnosis and treatment planning?"   The group discusses some of the possible challenges, and opportunities, to implement these new recommendations.    Resources:    This episode is brought to you by Dr. Jen Oral Care. Learn more about Dr. Jen.  Read the full clinical recommendations American Dental Association and American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology patient selection for dental radiography and cone-beam computed tomography  Find more ADA resources on X-Rays and Radiographs.  Stay connected with the ADA on social media!

Welcome back to Dr. M's Women and Children Firsts Podcast. Today's conversation sits at the crossroads of chemistry, skepticism, and clinical innovation. Our guest is Nayan Patel, a pharmacist with more than three decades inside the world of drug formulation and delivery. He is an alumnus of the University of Southern California School of Pharmacy, where he now serves as adjunct faculty, teaching advanced biochemistry and compounding science. Over the years, he has become an international educator on one molecule that refuses to stay quiet: glutathione. Dr. Patel is the founder of Auro Wellness, launched in 2011 with a specific mission—stabilize glutathione and solve its delivery problem. His work led to the development of the Auro GSH™ Antioxidant Delivery System, a topical approach designed to improve absorption of this notoriously fragile molecule. He is also the author of The Glutathione Revolution, a deep dive into how glutathione influences detoxification, aging, energy production, and immune resilience. If you've spent time in integrative medicine, you've heard glutathione called the “master antioxidant.” That phrase can sound like marketing, but the biology is real. Glutathione is a three–amino acid peptide central to redox balance, mitochondrial function, immune signaling, and cellular survival. It does not just neutralize oxidative stress; it regulates how cells respond to it. The challenge is delivery. Oral glutathione is largely broken down in the gut. IV glutathione works, but it's impractical for most families. Precursors like NAC depend on intact metabolic pathways that may not be operating optimally in states of chronic stress or inflammation. Dr. Patel asked a disruptive question: what if the bottleneck isn't production—but delivery? Today we unpack the science and the skepticism around transdermal glutathione. Can a molecule like this meaningfully cross the skin barrier? What does stabilization actually require? And how does independent pharmaceutical innovation differ from traditional drug development pathways, which are often constrained by economics as much as biology? For those of us caring for women and children—where oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, mitochondrial strain, and toxic burden intersect in everything from complicated pregnancies to neurodevelopmental challenges—this conversation matters. Not as a silver bullet. Not as a miracle spray. But as an exploration of foundational physiology and thoughtful delivery science. This is a discussion about how molecules move, how systems adapt, and how asking better questions can reshape clinical practice. Let's dive in. Dr. M Auro Wellness

What happens when the medication that's finally helping you is no longer affordable?If you've had success on Mounjaro or Zepbound but need to switch to a more affordable option like Ozempic for maintenance, you're probably wondering: will this actually work? And if semaglutide didn't help you before, the idea of going back can feel risky, especially when you're worried about regaining weight, increased food noise, or losing the progress you've worked so hard for.In this episode, I break down when switching medications for cost makes sense, when it's likely to backfire, and what your options are if semaglutide is the only affordable option. Referenceshttps://www.orchardpond.com/The 30/30 Program (Sept 2026 registration now open)Audio Stamps01:08 - Update on Dr. Rentea's retreat planning, plus her new favorite granola discovery.05:03 -  Listener question: Switching from Mounjaro to Ozempic for long-term maintenance due to cost.05:59 - When it makes sense to switch medications for affordability (and when it doesn't).08:03 -  If semaglutide is your only option: combining GLP-1s with oral medications.10:48 - Oral (daily) Wegovy vs injections: does steadier dosing actually help?11:40 - Why no medication is perfect and working with the right clinician is key.12:58 - The real reason behind this work: preventing disease, not chasing a number on the scale.14:05 - September 30/30 program update: early registration + monthly Q&A access.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Dr. Kelly Blodgett returns to The Root of the Matter for a heartfelt conversation about his new book, Feel Whole Again, and the profound intersection of psychology, human connection, and dentistry. With a background in psychology and over 30 years in practice, Dr. Blodgett shares why understanding a patient's mindset, emotions, and intuition is just as important as clinical expertise. This episode dives deep into the power of truly listening, the limitations of symptom-focused healthcare, and how treating the whole person (not just the teeth) can transform lives.What You'll LearnWhy Dr. Blodgett wrote Feel Whole Again and how his psychology degree shaped his approach to dentistryThe often-overlooked connection between thoughts, beliefs, and physical health outcomesReal patient stories of transformation, from feeling hopeless to reclaiming vitalityWhy biological dentistry treats the mouth as a whole system, and why that matters for predictable healingThe role of nutrition and prep work before dental surgeryHow social isolation and mindset can be the missing pieces in chronic illnessWhat to look for (and ask) when choosing a biological dentistThe energy component of oral health, and why removing toxicity is essentialKey Quotes"Listen to the patient. He's telling you the diagnosis.""Every cell of your body is listening to your thoughts."Patient Transformation StoriesDr. Blodgett shares two powerful cases of women from Seattle who felt like they were losing hope in their health journeys. One, a chronic smoker who hadn't chewed real food in 20 years, went through a comprehensive protocol of nutrition, mindset work, and full-mouth rehabilitation, and by the end of the year, she was biting through sandwiches and kissing her husband without worry. The other, a former triathlete whose health tanked after incomplete dental work, underwent proper cavitation and bone cleaning and is now back to training for triathlons.Resources MentionedFeel Whole Again by Dr. Kelly Blodgett, available on Amazon (ebook, paperback, hardback)IABDM (International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine): iabdm.orgBio Dental Global Standard by Dr. Dominic NischwitzMegan Barnett, Functional NutritionistRoot Cause Protocol (Morley Robbins)Connect with Dr. Kelly BlodgettPractice Website: blodgettdentalcare.comCoaching & Speaking: drkellyjblodgett.comConnect with Dr. Carver Join the 6-Week Gum Disease Course: https://reversegumdiseaseinsixweeks.info/optinpageBook Your Personalized Consultation: https://calendly.com/drcarver-1/health-coaching-consult?month=2025-10Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.

Oral health is often treated as optional or cosmetic, but for people living with AiArthritis diseases, it can have a real impact on pain, fatigue, nutrition, and quality of life. In this episode, Leila and Bridget explore why oral health deserves a place in routine disease management and why so many patients are never told their symptoms are disease related. The episode looks at how autoimmune conditions and common medications can affect the mouth, from dry mouth and gum inflammation to delayed healing and increased infection risk. It also breaks down the connection between oral health, the immune system, and systemic inflammation, helping patients better understand why issues can show up even when oral hygiene is strong. Join us on this episode to hear practical, gentle strategies for protecting oral health when saliva is reduced or sensitivity is high. The discussion emphasizes adaptation over perfection and reinforces that oral health challenges are not personal failures, but part of living with complex chronic disease.   Episode Highlights: Why oral health is often overlooked and why it matters in autoimmune disease How inflammation, medications, and reduced saliva affect the mouth The link between oral health and conditions like Sjögren's, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and scleroderma Gentle, realistic strategies to protect teeth and gums without causing more harm   Links & Resources Go With Us!

Louisiana's congressional districts, which it redrew following the 2020 census, currently sit in a state of legal uncertainty.The map initially only had one majority-black district. However, following a 2022 case called Robinson v. Ardoin (later Laundry), which held that it violated section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, Louisiana re-drew the map to include two majority-black congressional districts.In January 2024, a different set of plaintiffs sued alleging the new map violated the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. The case rose to SCOTUS and was heard as a part of the OT24 term. The issues before the Court included (1) Whether the majority of the three-judge district court in this case erred in finding that race predominated in the Louisiana legislature’s enactment of S.B. 8; (2) whether the majority erred in finding that S.B. 8 fails strict scrutiny; (3) whether the majority erred in subjecting S.B. 8 to the preconditions specified in Thornburg v. Gingles; and (4) whether this action is non-justiciable.On June 27, 2025, rather than issue a decision on the case, the Supreme Court issued an order restoring the case to the OT 25 calendar for reargument. This time, the Court has explicitly granted the question of "Whether Louisiana’s intentional creation of a second majority-minority congressional district violates the 14th or 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution." Oral argument (round 2) is set for October 15, 2025.Join us for a post-oral argument Courthouse Steps program where we will break down and analyze how this oral argument went before the Court.Featuring:Prof. Michael R.

Dentistry isn't just about shiny teeth. It's about your airway, your inflammation, and the biology driving how you feel every day. Miss that, and you miss one of the clearest windows into whole-body health. In this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with Dr. Ariana Ebrahimian, DDS, and we widen the lens: the mouth is not a standalone body part. It's a living ecosystem with a direct line to your airway, your sleep, your inflammation, and your long-term risk profile. We talk about why breathing problems can start in the structure of the jaw and palate in childhood, why mouth breathing is a red flag that deserves more than a shrug, and how oral posture and tongue function can shape the airway over time. But we don't stop at breathing. We get into oral dysbiosis, bleeding gums, and the uncomfortable truth that what's happening in your mouth doesn't stay in your mouth… bacteria can travel, inflammation can spread, and “routine” dental choices can ripple into the rest of your biology. We also challenge common habits people assume are harmless: constant snacking, soda, alcohol-based mouthwash, and the oversimplified fluoride conversation, then bring it back to practical, grounded alternatives. If you've ever felt like your healthcare is fragmented, one specialist per body part, this episode is your reminder that the body doesn't work that way. Your mouth is a gateway. And when you understand that, you start seeing your health differently. Want more practical health tips?

Implant placement is one thing, but making sure those implants survive years of chewing forces is another. In this episode, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes back Florida general dentist Dr. Vic Martel to dive deep into occlusion from an implant perspective. In today's conversation, Dr. Martel explains why implant occlusion is often even more critical than occlusion on natural teeth, how uneven load sharing leads to problems like loose screws, chipped porcelain, bone loss, and even loss of integration, and why surgeons are ultimately at the mercy of their restoring dentists' occlusal skills. He discusses practical guidelines for single posterior implants, angled implants in full-arch cases, maxillary second molars, anterior implants, and zirconia hybrids, as well as how to check occlusion correctly in centric, excursions, and with the patient both reclined and upright. Dr. Martel also shares how to manage bruxers, when to splint restorations, why screws need to be replaced after loosening, and ways frequent maintenance and clear patient instructions can prevent many complications before they start. Tune in now!Key Points From This Episode:How Dr. Martel defines occlusion as “load sharing” in the context of implant dentistry.Why occlusion is critical for natural teeth and how uneven load sharing leads to failures.Hear how to set occlusion for an implant using shim stock in normal closure and clench.Explore how to manage axial and non-axial loading on angled implants in full-arch cases.Steps for checking occlusion and why screw-retained restorations have become his standard.Discover common reasons for loose screws and why the screw often needs to be replaced.Steps for navigating microtrauma on implants, patients who brux, and splint restorations.Typical reasons why certain implants fail and guidelines for anterior implant occlusion.Find out how to distribute forces across implant-supported anterior bridges to avoid load.Unpack how the shift from acrylic hybrids to zirconia has changed occlusal schemes. Learn about the complications from occlusion and why it should be checked frequently.What to tell patients about soreness, looseness, night guards, and regular maintenance. Dr. Martel's final takeaways for preventing occlusion-related implant problems.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Victor Martel on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/victor-martel-dmd-fagd-91431922/ Dr. Victor Martel on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/drvicmartel/ Dr. Victor Martel Email Address — vicmartel@gmail.com Dr. Victor Martel Phone Number — 561 602 7222 Martel Academy — https://martelacademy.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Impacted teeth can include canines, laterals, premolars, and molars, not just wisdom teeth. The journey to dentistry can be influenced by various experiences, including humanitarian trips. Oral surgery often requires a balance between patient care and surgical techniques. Timing is crucial for managing impacted teeth, especially in adolescents. Open exposure techniques can help in the eruption of impacted canines. Adult patients present unique challenges in managing impacted teeth. Long-term implications of untreated impacted teeth can lead to more complex surgeries later. Surgical techniques vary based on the position of the impacted tooth and surrounding structures. Safety measures, such as using protective shields during procedures, are essential. Summary In this conversation, Dr. Serv Wahan and Dr. Dan Brady discuss the complexities of managing impacted teeth, including the various types of impacted teeth, surgical techniques, and the importance of timing in treatment. They share personal journeys into dentistry, the challenges of treating adult patients, and the long-term implications of untreated impacted teeth. The discussion also emphasizes safety measures in oral surgery and the referral process for managing these cases effectively.

Did God have a language? Did Adam and Eve speak Hebrew—or something else entirely? In this episode of Ask Dr. E, Dr. Michael Easley explores what the Bible reveals about language at creation, the Tower of Babel, and how God communicated with humanity from the very beginning.Walking through Genesis, Hebrew, and the broader family of Semitic languages, Dr. Easley explains why Scripture doesn't give a definitive answer—but does give meaningful insight. From Adam naming the animals to the confusion of languages at Babel and the unity of tongues in Acts 2, this episode connects theology, history, and biblical literacy in a thoughtful and accessible way.Whether you're curious about Hebrew, biblical inspiration, or how oral tradition shaped Scripture before it was written, this conversation invites you to ask better questions—and trust the authority of God's Word.Key Topics Discussed• Did God, Adam, and Eve share a language?• Hebrew and the family of Semitic languages• Language and communication before the Fall• Adam naming the animals in Genesis• The Tower of Babel and the origin of languages• Ethnicities and people groups in Scripture• Acts 2 as the reversal of Babel• Oral tradition before the written Pentateuch• Moses, authorship, and biblical inspiration• Why Scripture leaves room for mysteryChapters00:00 – Introduction00:19 – Did God and Adam share a language?01:25 – What Scripture tells us—and what it doesn't01:52 – Hebrew and Semitic language roots02:40 – Was there a pre-Fall or “holy” language?03:10 – Adam naming the animals04:05 – The Tower of Babel explained04:40 – Acts 2 and the unity of language05:23 – Oral tradition and writing the Pentateuch06:15 – Inspiration and authority of Scripture06:57 – Final thoughts If you've got a question for Dr. Easley, call or text us your question at 615-281-9694 or email at question@michaelincontext.com.

Key Episode TakeawaysOral Wegovy is real, but it's not “just a pill version of the shot.” Absorption rules, dosing schedules, and patient selection matter a lot more than most headlines suggest.Switching from injections to oral GLP-1s requires a plan. The transition isn't one-size-fits-all, and dose timing, GI tolerance, and expectations need to be managed carefully.Weight regain after stopping GLP-1s is common, but not universal. SURMOUNT-4 data shows large variability, reinforcing that biology, not willpower, drives outcomes.Maintenance matters as much as weight loss. Some patients need continued therapy at lower doses, while others may maintain with lifestyle plus strategic medication use.Stopping abruptly is usually the worst approach. Gradual transitions and realistic long-term strategies reduce rebound weight gain.GLP-1s are chronic disease tools, not short-term fixes. Treating obesity like hypertension or diabetes leads to better outcomes and fewer surprises. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

HEALTH NEWS   Probiotics emerge as a potent tool against depression and anxiety Altered microbiome: Oral bacteria play a role in chronic liver disease, study reveals Health issues linked to cosmetic jab complications From yoga to awe walks: Many paths lead to better mental health, largest analysis of well-being interventions finds Weight loss drugs may cause nutritional deficiencies without proper guidanc       Probiotics emerge as a potent tool against depression and anxiety University of Calgary (Canada), January 14 2026 (Natural News) For decades, the standard pharmaceutical approach to treating depression and anxiety has dominated treatment options, despite significant drawbacks including delayed effects, debilitating side effects and high relapse rates. Now, compelling new research is challenging this paradigm by pointing to a surprising source of relief: the gut. A comprehensive scientific analysis, synthesizing data from over 1,400 clinically diagnosed patients, reveals that probiotics—beneficial bacteria readily available as supplements—can produce substantial reductions in both depressive and anxious symptoms.   The analysis major findings include:     A major analysis of 23 clinical trials finds probiotics can significantly reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety in clinically diagnosed patients.   The benefits, appearing within 4-8 weeks, were comparable to some conventional antidepressants but without the same side-effect profile.   The gut-brain axis, a communication network largely ignored by conventional psychiatry, is central to understanding this connection.   Single-strain probiotic supplements, particularly certain Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species, showed the strongest mental health effects.   This research supports a holistic view of mental wellness, where gut health is a foundational component of treatment.     Altered microbiome: Oral bacteria play a role in chronic liver disease, study reveals Technical University Munich (Germany), January 15 2026 (Medical Xpress) Each year, more than two million people die from advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD). Previous research has linked gut microbiome disruptions to this condition and suggested that bacteria typically found in the mouth may colonize the gut. A new study published in Nature Microbiology now shows that identical bacterial strains occur in both the mouth and gut of patients with advanced chronic liver disease and also reveals a mechanism by which oral bacteria affect gut health. The researchers also found that this process coincides with worsening liver health. Researchers analyzed bacterial populations in saliva and stool samples from patients. The team found that both the gut and oral microbiome undergo significant changes as liver disease worsened, where changes to the oral microbiome were already detectable at earlier disease stages. In healthy individuals, bacterial communities differ substantially between body sites. In patients with liver disease, however, oral and gut microbiomes became increasingly similar as the disease progressed and nearly identical bacterial strains were recovered from the mouth and gut of patients. "These strains are typically found in the mouth and are rarely present in the healthy gut. However, we observed increases in the absolute abundances of these oral bacteria in patients with advanced chronic liver disease. This strongly suggests that these bacteria translocate from the mouth and colonize the gut," explains Melanie Schirmer, Professor of Translational Microbiome Data Integration at TUM.   Health issues linked to cosmetic jab complications Anglia Ruskin University (UK), January 9 2026 (Eurekalert)   Patients with chronic illnesses face a significantly higher risk of complications from cosmetic botulinum toxin injections, commonly known as Botox, according to a major UK study. Researchers from Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) surveyed 919 adults who had received botulinum toxin treatments for aesthetic reasons. The study, published in Aesthetic Surgery Journal, is the largest of its kind to have been carried out in the UK. Botulinum toxin injections are among the UK's most popular cosmetic procedures, with an estimated 900,000 treatments performed every year. Researchers found that underlying conditions such as type 1 diabetes, thyroid disorders, chronic migraine and skin disease dramatically increase the likelihood of adverse effects. According to the study, people with type 1 diabetes were 92 times more likely to experience nausea after treatment compared to those without the condition. Those with thyroid disorders and chronic migraine sufferers had an approximately 10-fold increase in the risk of nausea. Other complications associated with pre-existing conditions included headaches, bruising, muscle weakness and persistent eyelid droop (ptosis). Patients with cataracts were 30 times more likely to report headaches, and those with prior injuries had a 21-fold increased risk of losing facial expression.   From yoga to awe walks: Many paths lead to better mental health, largest analysis of well-being interventions finds Swansea University (UK), January 15 2026 (Medical Xpress) New research by Swansea experts has provided the largest ever comparison of well-being-focused interventions delivered to adults. The team reviewed 183 randomized controlled trials, representing almost 23,000 participants, and evaluated 12 categories of interventions ranging from psychological, physical, mind–body, and nature-based approaches to find out more. Their research was the first interdisciplinary comparison carried out across psychological, physical, mind-body and environmental interventions. The study gives an integrated view of how different disciplines contribute to well-being. By focusing on general adult samples rather than clinical groups, it provides evidence that will be relevant to developing public health, education, workplace well-being, and community programs. The researchers' key findings were: Most interventions improved well-being compared with inactive control groups; Strongest effects were found for combined exercise plus psychological interventions (for example, awe walks or meditation combined with walking); Mind–body interventions showed consistently moderate, reliable effects; Exercise alone produced similar benefits to many psychological interventions; and, Positive psychology interventions—both single-component and multicomponent—were also effective. The analysis shows that there is no single route to improving well-being. Mindfulness, compassion-based approaches, yoga, exercise and positive psychology interventions all showed moderate benefits compared with control groups, and combining physical activity with psychological interventions appeared particularly promising.   Weight loss drugs may cause nutritional deficiencies without proper guidance     University College London & Cambridge, January 7 2026 (News-Medical) People prescribed the new generation of weight loss drugs may not receive sufficient nutritional guidance to support safe and sustainable weight loss, leaving them vulnerable to nutritional deficiencies and muscle loss, say experts at UCL and the University of Cambridge. In research published today in Obesity Reviews, the team found a lack of robust evidence surrounding nutritional advice and support and the impact this has on factors such as calorie intake, body composition, protein adequacy, and patient experiences. Weight loss drugs such as semaglutide and tirzepatide – available under brand names including Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro – mimic the naturally-occurring hormone glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), released into the blood in response to eating. The drugs suppress appetite, increase a feeling of being full, and reduce food cravings. These drugs can reduce calorie intake by between 16-39 %, making them a powerful tool to help people living with obesity and being overweight. However, there has been little research to examine their impact on diet quality, protein intake, or adequacy of micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). The researchers identified just 12 studies that looked at nutrition and diet alongside treatment with semaglutide or tirzepatide. Given the widespread – and increasing – use of these medications and the urgency of providing advice to individuals using the drugs, there was insufficient evidence from the studies to recommend strict low-fat diets to complement the weight loss drugs. Some observational studies found that people on the treatments often consumed excessive levels of total and saturated fat. These medications are transforming obesity care, but we know very little about how they shape people's daily lives, including changes in appetite, eating patterns, wellbeing, and quality of life.
