REKO Podcast - Rund um den Knochen und die Muskeln.

Osteoporose tritt meistens bei Frauen nach den Wechseljahren oder bei Männern ab dem Alter von 50 auf. Es gibt aber auch Fälle, in denen die Osteoporose oder Knochenbrüche schon in jüngerem Alter auftreten. Bei der sog. „Early-onset Osteoporosis“ sind häufig andere Erkrankungen oder Medikamente die Ursache. In den Fällen, in denen keine Ursache gefunden wird, muss dann auch an eine genetische Ursache ausgeschlossen werden. In unserer heutigen Folge ist Dr. Erik Kelter, niedergelassener Orthopäde und Unfallchirurg aus Köln, zu Gast. Mit ihm sprechen wir über einen spannenden Patientenfall und das Vorgehen bei „Early-onset Osteoporosis“.

These days as a keynote speaker, life coach, business consultant, and bestselling author, his unique comeback story is teaching others how to stay in the game and win.     Gary was a two-week-old infant when a fractured femur (thigh bone) led to a diagnosis of Osteogenesis Imperfecta—brittle-bone disease.  Before he was 12, he would have 80 fractures; as an adult he'd land in a body cast for months at a time. Instead of a sheltered existence, however, Gary's remarkable life and career came together while mending through 100 broken bones and a dozen-plus surgeries.

Often, the more we learn about a disease, the more we learn about ourselves and the world around us. The story of the genetic disorder osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), colloquially known as brittle bone disease, illustrates this perfectly. As researchers continue to uncover the mechanisms responsible for OI development and progression, the better we understand the varied and crucial roles collagen plays in all parts of our biology. As historians attempt to trace how that knowledge has accumulated over time, the more we can clearly see how science rarely progresses consistently but rather erratically and is prone to interruption. And as we assess where we are with OI treatment and research today, the more apparent the gap is between knowledge and application, and just how critical lived experiences are in understanding a disease. In this episode, we explore these aspects of osteogenesis imperfecta, and we are thrilled to be joined by Natalie Lloyd, who shares her experience with OI as our firsthand account. Natalie is a New York Times bestselling author of novels for young readers, whose recently published award-winning book Hummingbird tells the story of a young girl with OI. Heartwarming, magical, and brilliant, this wonderful book is a must-read.

Jamie and Doug took an online course to help tackle the challenges with putting their 6yr old and 3yr old to bed.  For the last 6 + months, they have struggled with catering to their kids during bedtime.  Doug had a routine with Hendrix that would take 45 minutes, and include rubbing his back, and staying in his room until he was nearly asleep.  Jamie would lay in bed with Henley and read, and then try to fall asleep to sleep stories.  Doug is very anti-letting the kids sleep in their bed.  Both Jamie and Doug were waking up multiple times a night, whether it was their daughter crying and climbing in bed with them, or their 3yr old son crying that he was scared.  The nail in the coffin for them was when their son was able to climb out of his crib and run into their bedroom multiple times a night.  Jamie and Doug discuss the parenting course they took, and the advice that some of their Frans messaged them. They have had some success so far, and have a few tricks and tips that have helped them tackle this sleep issue….and it has been working for the last few days!!!  Plus, Jamie and Doug had a friend Trisha Taylor on the show (Episode 109), who they hung out with on their RV road-trip.  Trisha was a mom, blogger, and truly an inspiration. Trisha had Osteogenesis Imperfecta which is a brittle bone disorder, and at that time, she had suffered over 600 broken bones and seven surgeries!

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Cindy: I love Fatlossity PM for the best sleep, but I often get jittery with caffeine so I have only used the AM short term. I don't get the same effect with your Sleep Support supplement (melatonin tends to awaken me after only a few hours). I do benefit from the amino acid L-trypophine, on occasion. Since Fatlossity PM cannot be purchased separately, do you have any suggestions for improving sleep or which supplement is likely to help me? My sleep has improved over the last 6 years from learning from you, but I often still wake up after 5 or 6 hours of sleep to go to the bathroom. I am post-menopasusal, but I do take estrogen replacement- which has helped. But, Once my brain starts thinking, sadly sleep is usually over!   Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral. 39 year old male here. My issue is related to “Incomplete Bowel Movement” and I have been experiencing this issue for at least 10 years and I'm unsure what I should do about it. Basically, I have a normal bowel movement but it sometimes feels like not everything came out. So then I use an anal douche and every single time there is more poop coming out with the water. This happens with every single bowel movement. I'm a “fitness guy” with a healthy diet and lots of fiber. Thank you!   Joy: Thanks for all you do Dr Cabral! (Q #1 of higher importance) I'm a 30y/o F & would consider myself to be decently healthy & aware of my body. I however experience awful joint pain & weakness. It tends to hold me back from enjoying an active lifestyle. It's literally every joint from my neck to my ankles. My brother was born with a disease -Osteogenesis Imperfecta but has the more mild type 1. It affects the production of collagen. I don't think I have OI also. Curious what would you recommend me take/do to help my joint pain. Q#2 I recently read of the “earthing” concept, which is supposed to have a range of health benefits. It involves the natural electricity of the earth, here is a link for more info. I'm skeptical, but would like to know what u think! https://groundingofficial.com/   Jade: Hey there. I've been invested in my health for some time now and have been doing my best to encourage people around me to be healthier versions of themselves. However, I have one aunt in her late 50s whose diet isn't necessarily the best. She drinks Diet Coke mostly every day, eats out regularly and doesn't exercise. She also has an extremely stressful job which doesn't help. It‘s always been difficult to encourage her to change her eating habits, but she was just diagnosed with carpal tunnel. I told her I would do my best to get information on small changes she can make to better her condition and overall life. Is there anything she can do or take that may not be drastic? I would recommend your detox and less processed foods and drinks of course, but that's too extreme for her.   Erica: Hi Dr. Cabral! I wanted to ask you your thoughts on what could be the root of my symptoms. I've had dizziness for about 3-4 years now and it's very consistent almost every day. However, it hasn't gotten worse it's stayed very consistent over this time. It seems to be worse around the time of my period and also when under stress. In addition, I have a lot of popping in both of my ears and sometimes my ears feel itchy and almost like my eustachian tubes have to release pressure. I went to the ENT who said I might have Eustachian tube dysfunction but ruled out any fluid in my ears or other issues. I also tried the maneuver for crystals in my ears which didn't seem to have an effect either. Any thoughts on things I could try? Dizziness got worse when I took antibiotics 3/4 years ago.

Born with the rare genetic disorder, Osteogenesis Imperfecta (aka ‘brittle bone disease'), and a wheelchair user since the age of six, Athena grew up navigating an ill-fitting narrative about being disabled in our society. On one end of the spectrum is the highly medicalized representation of the disabled body that typically focuses on pain, deformity and lack of function. Frida Kahlo's surrealist self-portraits depicting the painful and distorting aspects of her body and her disability are an example of how this interpretation of disability has shown up in the world of art. On the other end of the spectrum is the objectification of people with disabilities as “super crips” that are held up as inspirational for simply living with their disability. This viewpoint has become even more prevalent with the rise of social media and is articulately critiqued in Stella Young's TED talk, “I'm Not Your Inspiration, Thank You Very Much”. https://www.instagram.com/athenacreative/ My Life Without Limits is a podcast by Cerebral Palsy Alberta Music from Soundstripe: Astro Jetson by Mikey Geiger https://app.soundstripe.com/royalty-free-music Carlos is a Hispanic male with cerebral palsy.

Want to learn how you can contribute to school inclusion? In this segment, Katherine Klimitas discusses living with a disability and her focus for school inclusion. She talks about growing up and being the only one in her entire school in a wheelchair, adulthood, and now the work she is doing by embracing her creativity and helping others who have a disability. See video here - https://youtu.be/bWy1AK4V8-I WHO IS KATHERINE? Katherine Klimitas is a New Orleans-based artist and designer who sold her first watercolor at age 10. As the daughter of veterinarians, Katherine expresses her family's life-long love of animals through her meticulous life-like paintings. She earned a B.A. from Loyola University in 2011, and today at age 33, runs her multifaceted business KAK ART & Designs from home. When clients learn that Katherine has Osteogenesis Imperfecta, also known as brittle bone disease, they are captivated by her unique perspective. She and her parents stopped counting her broken bones at 500 at age 10. She's 2 feet 7 inches tall, gets around in an electric wheelchair, and creates all of her art, jewelry and commercial graphic design while lying on her side. KATHERINE'S CALL TO ACTION Everyone has something to contribute to society. Find your "something," get out and DO IT!

Katherine Klimitas is an artist, motivational speaker, author, and graphic designer. She is living with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, better known as Brittle Bone Disease. Katherine gets around in an electric wheelchair and she is 2 feet, 7 inches tall. By age 10, my guest had broken over 500 bones because of the disease. However, she and her parents refused to let Osteogenesis Imperfecta disease dictates her happiness and upward mobility. During her senior years at Loyola University, she started KAK Art & Designs. She is now expanding her reach and capabilities as a watercolor artist and motivating others to contribute to their communities. “Some believe in destiny and some believe in fate, but I believe that happiness is something we create.” (Katherine Klimitas quoted this from her favorite hit by Sugarland) Guest's Links: https://www.instagram.com/kakartnola/ https://kakartnola.com/ Now, subscribe to our YouTube channel ( https://youtube.com/channel/UCoc-QGLBLQxIYRa7N-OaRqA).

Watch Here: https://youtu.be/wYfZsSB0rZE  CAN YOU IMAGINE BREAKING OVER 500 BONES BY THE AGE OF 10? On this episode we are joined by Katherine Klimitas. Katherine has Osteogenesis Imperfecta, better known as Brittle Bone Disease, resulting in her frequently breaking bones (over 500 by the age of ten) and shares her experiences both growing up and being an entrepreneur. On this episode we discuss: Katherine discovering her talent for art at a young age Leveraging your talent to make a living Inclusion in the classroom For places to listen, places to connect on social media, to be a guest, collaborate with or sponsor DTE visit: https://linktr.ee/DisruptTheEveryday Katherine's website: https://kakartnola.com/ About Katherine in her words “Some believe in destiny and some believe in fate, but I believe that happiness is something we create.” If you're a Sugarland fan, too, then you recognize this lyric. It's my favorite from their hit song, Something More. It's completely true. We're presented opportunities for happiness in life and work. But unless we make the effort to pursue those opportunities, we'll never know what it means to be happy. I'm Katherine Klimitas, artist, speaker, author and graphic designer. I have Osteogenesis Imperfecta, better known as Brittle Bone Disease. I get around in an electric wheelchair. I'm 2 feet, 7 inches tall. And by age 10, I had broken 500+ bones. But there was no way my parents and I were going to let my disease dictate my happiness. They made me want to make something of myself, and I was going to be happy doing it—end of story. During my senior year at Loyola University, I started KAK Art & Designs. While my services have changed since 2011, I've stayed focused on 2 key areas: 1) expanding my reach and capabilities as a watercolor artist; and 2) motivating others to contribute to their communities. After owning my business for nearly a decade, what keeps me striving for something more? I want my work to bring people joy. I paint, speak, write, donate my paintings to animal causes and take on music industry creative projects.
