This critical medical tool may overestimate oxygen readings in Black patients, potentially leading to delayed or inadequate treatment.• Pulse oximeters use infrared light to measure blood oxygen, but melanin in darker skin can scatter this light and cause inaccurate readings• Studies show Black patients are nearly three times more likely to have hidden low oxygen episodes missed by pulse oximeters• During COVID-19, this bias became particularly dangerous as oxygen readings determined critical treatment decisions• Most pulse oximeters were originally calibrated on light-skinned individuals, with minimal diversity requirements• The FDA is now developing better standards requiring more diverse testing groups• This issue extends beyond pulse oximeters and reveals broader systemic healthcare inequities• Medical practitioners need to consider the whole clinical picture rather than relying solely on pulse ox readingsStay healthy, my friends, until next time.Support the showSubscribe to Our Newsletter!

We explore this common condition, its risk factors, and how simple lifestyle changes can reverse it before more serious health problems develop.• Insulin resistance occurs when muscles, liver, and fat cells fail to respond to normal levels of insulin• The pancreas compensates by producing more insulin, eventually leading to beta cell failure• Clinical signs include dark skin patches in body folds (acanthosis nigricans), elevated triglycerides, and increased waist circumference• One in three Americans have prediabetes, with many also experiencing insulin resistance• Risk factors include central obesity, sedentary lifestyle, family history, PCOS, and certain racial/ethnic backgrounds• Sleep disturbances, chronic stress, and fatty liver disease are emerging factors linked to insulin resistance• A 5-7% weight reduction improves insulin sensitivity by over 50%• Regular physical activity (150+ minutes weekly) helps glucose enter cells more efficiently• Diet modifications focusing on whole foods, limiting refined sugars, and following Mediterranean or DASH patterns show significant benefits• "The movement is the medicine, the food is the medicine" when addressing insulin resistanceSupport the showSubscribe to Our Newsletter!

In this conversation, Brendan Housler and Owen Cole discuss various aspects of competitive cycling, focusing on training strategies, race preparation, and the importance of general fitness.

The discussion also highlights the significance of endurance training and the balance between intensity and recovery in a cyclist's regimen.Even if you aren't racing at Owen's level, we highlighted some simple aspects of his training that you can apply to your own!Here are some of his simple gems:Focus on general fitness rather than overly specific training. Owen emphasizes that "being generally fit is more important than anything" because race situations can be unpredictable.Ride at the bottom of zone 2 for endurance training. Owen advises keeping endurance rides at "the very bottom of zone 2" to avoid excessive fatigue.Incorporate time on your time trial bike before doing intervals on it. Owen suggests doing "an endurance ride or an easy ride on it the day before" intense sessions.Don't fixate on power numbers during races. Owen says "power numbers don't win races" and can mess with you mentally if you're off your normal values.Balance training stress with life stress. Owen tracks exam dates in his training calendar to manage overall stress load.Don't overcomplicate things. As Owen puts it: "There's nothing crazy to it."Manage recovery time well, especially during tapers before big races.Remember that non-training factors are crucial: "There's no point in pushing the training to the limit if you're not going to do these other things" like sleep, stretching, and proper nutrition.Include variety in your workouts and "don't do the same workout too many times."Train all your energy systems to be prepared for any race scenario.Thanks, Owen!
