Liberal journalists subtly tell you they're liberal when they describe who in politics is "extreme." When you're a liberal, Bernie Sanders isn't extreme. He's not very far from you at all. So it's only natural that virtually every Republican is "far right" on the media's political spectrum. Bill D'Agostino discusses his latest study of how "far" the media go.
What if your child's screen time is causing permanent damage—and you don't even know it yet? In this compelling episode, Ginny Yurich sits down with Clare Morell, public policy expert and author of The Tech Exit: A Practical Guide to Freeing Kids and Teens from Smartphones. Together, they unpack one of the most startling screen-related health issues facing kids today: chronic dry eye. Once seen only in the elderly, dry eye is now affecting children as young as eight—often irreversibly—due to reduced blinking during screen use. But it's not just the eyes. Clare shares how digital overuse is quietly reshaping children's brains, behavior, and even their ability to think original thoughts. From real-life stories of families who ditched devices to groundbreaking school policies and church youth group solutions, this conversation will leave you informed—and empowered. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or community leader, you'll come away with practical tools, conviction, and the clarity to lead differently in a screen-saturated world.
Irish parents' overuse of smartphones is damaging their children's mental health, according to a new report from the ESRI. Dr. Deirdre Robertson, author of the report, told Shane Beatty on Breakfast Briefing more about the study.
In this podcast we discuss low-value care that has emerged from a decay in the specificity of the terms “cardiac arrest” and “cardiopulmonary resuscitation.” Patients who experience cardiac arrest in hospital are rarely more than a minute or two away from defibrillation. But the proportion of shockable rhythms in these patients is low as the heart has typically stopped after the decline of other systems. In such conditions, chest compressions are more likely to cause unnecessary trauma than improve survival outcomes. As retired UK palliative care physician Kathryn Mannix explains, “cardiac arrest” was originally reserved for unexpected events in relatively healthy individuals in the community. She says we need to separate this from the more progressive phenomenon that is better described as “natural dying”. There is also a semantic breakdown in the understanding of what “cardiopulmonary resuscitation” entails. Surveys of Australasian medical practitioners show that the majority consider CPR to include defibrillation and drugs not just chest compressions and ventilation. As a result, Do Not Attempt CPR orders get perceived as being “a stop sign” to other treatments that may be beneficial. We hear from the NZ-based authors of that research, cardiologist Dr Tammy Pegg, intensivist Dr Alex Psirides and palliative care physician Dr Kate Grundy.

In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 podcast, host Mary Greensmith welcomes Dr. Devang Shah, a homeopath based in Mumbai, India. Dr. Shah shares his insights into homeopathy training in India, his approach to musculoskeletal conditions, and how homeopathy works holistically to support healing. Homeopathy Education in India Dr. Shah explains that homeopaths in India undergo 4.5 years of formal medical study, followed by a one-year internship—similar to mainstream medical doctors. The main difference is that instead of pharmacology, homeopaths study materia medica, which covers homeopathic remedies. Public Awareness of Homeopathy Homeopathy is well-known in many parts of India, particularly in cities like Calcutta where people often use remedies like Arnica and Belladonna at home. In more rural areas, awareness is growing. The more skilled homeopaths graduate, the more homeopathy spreads. Treating Musculoskeletal Conditions Dr. Shah began treating chronic pain conditions after being invited to consult at a friend's orthopedic hospital. There, he treated conditions like osteoarthritis and back pain—especially where conventional medicine offered little relief. The Link Between Stress and Pain Stress often worsens back pain, whether emotional (grief, anxiety) or physical. Dr. Shah explains that homeopathy addresses both physical and emotional causes of pain, offering more complete and lasting relief than simply masking symptoms with painkillers. Understanding the Vital Force In homeopathy, the “vital force” is the body's innate healing power. When this force is weakened, symptoms appear. Remedies stimulate the vital force to restore balance and activate healing from within. How Remedies Are Selected Homeopaths follow the “law of similars”—choosing remedies that produce symptoms similar to the patient's condition. For example, Apis (made from the honeybee) is used for conditions that mimic a bee sting: swelling, redness, and burning pain relieved by cold. Proving Remedies and Materia Medica Homeopathic remedies are “proved” on healthy individuals who record physical, emotional, and mental changes. This data forms the basis of materia medica—the homeopath's guide to choosing remedies. These records have been collected for over 200 years. Avoiding Remedy Overuse Unlike conventional medicine, homeopathic remedies are not meant to be taken continuously. Once symptoms improve, the remedy should be paused. Overuse may lead to “proving” symptoms—new symptoms created by the remedy itself. Proper timing and follow-up are key. Chronic Illness and Long-Term Benefits Even long-standing conditions like rheumatoid arthritis can improve significantly. Dr. Shah shares a case where a patient avoided costly injections and painkillers thanks to homeopathy. While early treatment brings the best outcomes, even later stages can benefit. Homeopathy and Conventional Medicine Homeopathy can be safely used alongside conventional treatments. Dr. Shah notes that patients on medications like thyroid pills often reduce or even stop them under supervision as homeopathy restores balance and health. This episode offers a deep and clear explanation of how homeopathy works—especially in treating musculoskeletal issues. Dr. Devang Shah highlights the importance of holistic understanding, symptom matching, and the body's own ability to heal.

Sam Baker from Wrigglebrew and I talk about soil health, and what does nitrogen poisoning look like?My leaves turned brown, despite enough watering. Maybe I gave them too much nitrogen?Overuse of phosphorus causes plants to not be able to uptake zinc, magnesium, calcium. That's another reason why our food is mineral deficient.Wrigglebrew is even used by soy farmers to reduce their nitrogen load and move a little more toward regenerative farming methods.Compost tea only has a shelf life of 24-48 hours. How does Wrigglebrew maintain the flora and be shelf stable?Sam also shares about Wrigglebrew's research - a scientific gov't grant to use worms to digest plastic.Wrigglebrew is a fertilizer made from worm castings, but it goes farther by adding helpful soil bacteria, mycorrhizae, and mycelium. The mycelium is a species that will not grow into mushrooms, if that is a concern. You can use it as soil fertilizer or foliar feed spray. Wrigglebrew started as a project at the University of Central Florida (UCF) to offer a solution to combat the nitrogen runoff that causes red tide - algae bloom in the Gulf (of America).Episode show notes: Ep. 162 - Talking Soil Health with Sam Baker from WrigglebrewTimes are tough.

This podcast is based upon the new 'Antimicrobial use guidelines for canine pyoderma by the International Society for Companion Animal Infectious Diseases (ISCAID)' available HERE (00:00) John introduces the podcast with his co-hosts Sue Paterson & Producer Paul. Chapter 1 – Understanding Pyoderma and the Need for New Guidelines (02:56) Sue welcomes Dr. Anette Loeffler, who introduces herself and her background in veterinary dermatology. Originally from Germany, she studied in Munich and has worked in the UK for over 30 years. She is currently a dermatologist at the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) and has a special interest in Staphylococcus and bacterial skin infections and this has led her to work over the last 4 years on the new pyoderma treatment guidelines, aimed at improving antibiotic use and promoting topical therapy. (04:30) Sue asks Anette to explain antimicrobial stewardship and why it is important. Anette describes antimicrobial resistance as a major global threat. Overuse of antibiotics leads to resistance, so it is crucial to avoid unnecessary prescriptions and focus on appropriate diagnostics. (06:10) Sue asks how common pyoderma is in domestic species, particularly dogs and cats. Anette explains that staphylococcal pyoderma is very common in dogs due to their unique skin structure, making them more prone to bacterial overgrowth. While cats and other species can develop bacterial skin infections, it is far less frequent and usually not recurrent. Chapter 2 – Diagnosing and Classifying Pyoderma (08:00) John discusses evolving perspectives on pyoderma classification and asks if the traditional categories of superficial and deep pyoderma are still relevant. Anette confirms that the new guidelines still use these classifications as they help determine treatment: Surface pyoderma (dysbiosis): Often in skin folds where bacteria and yeast overgrow due to friction and moisture. Superficial pyoderma: Involves hair follicles and is the most common type. Deep pyoderma: A more serious infection requiring systemic antibiotics. (10:19) Sue notes that past treatment approaches lacked strong clinical evidence. Anette explains that many historical treatment protocols were based on anecdotal evidence rather than research. While deep pyoderma has more robust studies, superficial cases often lacked proper research, leading to overuse of antibiotics. (13:04) John asks how vets can determine whether a case is surface, superficial, or deep pyoderma. Anette explains that clinical examination alone can often differentiate them: Surface infections show redness and are in friction areas (e.g., nasal folds, hotspots). Superficial pyoderma presents with papules, pustules, and epidermal collarettes. Deep pyoderma causes swelling, draining tracts, haemorrhagic crusting, and pain. (16:04) Sue asks how to confirm true bacterial pyoderma and rule out mimicking conditions. Anette stresses the importance of cytology, a simple and cost-effective test that can quickly confirm bacterial involvement. Cytology can also differentiate between bacterial infections, yeast overgrowth, and sterile pustular diseases. Chapter 3 – Treatment Approaches and Key Takeaways from the New Guidelines (19:36) John asks about traditional treatment approaches and why they need updating. Anette outlines how older guidelines recommended unnecessarily long courses of antibiotics (e.g., 3-4 weeks for superficial pyoderma, 4-6 weeks for deep pyoderma). While this was logical before antimicrobial resistance became a concern, modern research supports shorter, targeted treatments. (26:13) Anette explains the new recommendations: Surface pyoderma should be treated topically only – systemic antibiotics are inappropriate. Superficial pyoderma should primarily be treated with topical therapy – which has been shown to be as successful as a course of antibiotics. Deep pyoderma requires systemic antibiotics but can benefit from adjunctive topical treatment. (32:40) Sue asks about helping vets communicate these new approaches to pet owners. Anette explains that the guidelines include tables, visual aids, and quick-reference guides to support busy practitioners. (33:28) John asks about when systemic antibiotics are still necessary. Anette explains that systemic therapy is still essential for deep pyoderma or when topical treatment alone is impractical (e.g., large dogs, owner limitations). In such cases, culture and susceptibility testing should guide antibiotic choice. (38:15) Sue asks which antibiotics should be the first choice if empirical treatment is necessary. Anette recommends clindamycin, lincomycin, cephalexin, or co-amoxiclav as first-line choices, with fluoroquinolones reserved for resistant infections. (42:32) Sue asks Anette for her top five takeaways from the guidelines: Read the dog, not just the textbook. Diagnose based on clinical lesions and determine if the infection is surface, superficial, or deep. Use cytology whenever possible. It's quick, inexpensive, and helps confirm bacterial involvement. Always look for the underlying cause. Pyoderma often recurs due to allergies or hormonal conditions. Prioritise topical therapy. Topical antimicrobials alone are effective for many skin infections, reducing antibiotic use. Use systemic antibiotics responsibly. Empirical choices should be limited to first-line drugs, and culture should guide second-line therapy. (45:45) Sue mentions that the full guidelines will be available online via: WSAVA, ISCAID, and WAVD. Sue also mentioned a WAVD webinar Anetta hosted, which is a must watch. The guidelines are currently available HERE (47:29) Outro – As always, Sue & John wrap up before John asks his co-hosts a light-hearted question to end on
EP. 213: In this episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I'm joined by one of the world's leading experts on peptides and cellular medicine, Dr. William Seeds. Dr. Seeds is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with over 25 years of experience and the founder of the Seeds Scientific Research and Performance Institute. He's also hosting the upcoming Peptide World Congress this June 2025 in Las Vegas, where I'm honored to be speaking on the main stage! Together, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond the basics of GLP-1s. We explore how these peptides can support not just weight loss, but also behavior change, neuroplasticity, and metabolic function. Dr. Seeds shares fresh insights into how GLP-1s affect the brain, why they must be paired with strength training, and the dangers of overreliance or overdosing. Topics Discussed: What are the benefits of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss? How do GLP-1s like Ozempic affect neuroplasticity and behavior change? Why is strength training essential when using GLP-1 peptides for fat loss? Can you customize GLP-1 dosing based on patient sensitivity and metabolism? What are the risks of overusing or overdosing GLP-1 medications like Ozempic? Sponsored By: Sundays | As a Listener of The Dr Tyna Show, you can Get 40% off your first order of Sundays.

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive deep into the often-overlooked tool of language in tabletop RPGs—how it shapes worlds, defines characters, and enhances immersion. Whether it's a dwarven curse word, a whispered draconic threat, or a gnomish pun that lands like a rock in a puddle, the power of language can turn a good campaign into an unforgettable one. The discussion explores the practical, narrative, and mechanical implications of language in TTRPGs like Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder. The hosts share ideas for incorporating multilingualism into your campaign setting, including how dialects, slang, coded speech, and nonverbal communication (like thieves' cant or secret signs) add flavor to your storytelling. They also delve into how languages can be used to gate knowledge, shape factions, spark conflict, and even fuel plotlines. In classic RPGBOT fashion, the conversation balances practical advice with ridiculous tangents, including misused languages at the table, accidentally offensive fantasy names, and the ever-important question: “What does Infernal really sound like when you're mad?” Create Dungeons in minutes not hours with DungeonFlow.app Check out our Best of Season 1 and Best of Season 2 playlists! dScryb – Comprehend Languages (affiliate link) RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes The Maniculum Podcast – RPGBOT.News S2E48 Other Stuff Maniculum Podcast Tuckernut Island Key Takeaways Languages Are Storytelling Tools Languages in TTRPGs are more than just flavor—they're worldbuilding elements that reflect history, culture, and power dynamics. Assigning specific languages to regions, races, or classes can deepen immersion and realism. Secret languages (like Thieves' Cant or Druidic) add intrigue and exclusivity, encouraging players to explore character backgrounds and factions. Mechanical Impacts of Language Choices Language proficiency can serve as a subtle mechanical gate to information, alliances, and plot hooks. Players fluent in a rare or ancient language may uncover hidden clues, decipher magical runes, or negotiate with forgotten factions. Spells like Comprehend Languages and Tongues are powerful narrative tools, not just utilities. In-Character Dialogue Builds World Flavor Accents, idioms, and invented slang enrich roleplay and bring authenticity to NPCs and PCs alike. Mixing real-world language quirks with fantasy cultures helps ground the audience while maintaining immersion. Overuse of “fantasy gibberish” can alienate players—balance creativity with clarity. GM Tips for Using Language Effectively Use language barriers sparingly to create tension or mystery without shutting down play. Allow PCs to learn languages over time, or treat linguistic study as a subplot or downtime activity. Develop regional dialects or jargon to distinguish cultures and classes of characters. Avoiding Pitfalls and Problematic Tropes Be mindful of real-world language and cultural analogues to avoid unintentional stereotyping. Don't overdo accents—what's fun for five minutes can be painful over five sessions. Avoid making entire plotlines hinge on a language barrier unless all players are equipped to engage with it.

Players fluent in a rare or ancient language may uncover hidden clues, decipher magical runes, or negotiate with forgotten factions. Spells like Comprehend Languages and Tongues are powerful narrative tools, not just utilities. In-Character Dialogue Builds World Flavor Accents, idioms, and invented slang enrich roleplay and bring authenticity to NPCs and PCs alike. Mixing real-world language quirks with fantasy cultures helps ground the audience while maintaining immersion. Overuse of “fantasy gibberish” can alienate players—balance creativity with clarity. GM Tips for Using Language Effectively Use language barriers sparingly to create tension or mystery without shutting down play. Allow PCs to learn languages over time, or treat linguistic study as a subplot or downtime activity. Develop regional dialects or jargon to distinguish cultures and classes of characters. Avoiding Pitfalls and Problematic Tropes Be mindful of real-world language and cultural analogues to avoid unintentional stereotyping. Don't overdo accents—what's fun for five minutes can be painful over five sessions. Avoid making entire plotlines hinge on a language barrier unless all players are equipped to engage with it.

Is the human microbiome an endangered species? Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues," has also been featured in a documentary, The Invisible Extinction, that explores the dire consequences of our depleted microbiomes. Antibiotic overuse, C-sections, lack of breast-feeding, ultra-processed food, lack of exposure to nature, and chlorinated water conspire to deplete our bodies of beneficial bacteria; these imbalances in intestinal flora have profound, far-reaching effects, not just on digestive disorders, but on immunity, metabolism, and brain function. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity, Parkinson's Disease, depression and anxiety, and many more have been linked to microbiome deficits. What lessons do stool samples from indigenous peoples offer us? There may be a transgenerational effect of microbiome depletion. Dr. Blaser has gone so far as to advocate a Microbiome Vault to preserve our bacterial heritage. Are fecal transplants and poop pills the answer? “Vaginal seeding”? What role do high-fiber diets play? Are fermented foods beneficial? What about probiotics? Dr. Blaser describes measures we need to take now to recover our microbial diversity.
Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues."
A woman, aged in her 80s, lives in the city of Suzuka in western Japan's Mie Prefecture. She has an artificial bladder due to cancer and so is unable to work. Her son, with whom she lived before he passed away, suffered from an intractable disease and required canes to walk. Both had disability certificates. The woman had been receiving welfare since August 2019, but in September 2022, the payments abruptly stopped. Subsequent district and high court rulings accepted the mother and son's claims, and ordered the city to rescind its decision, although the city appealed the ruling.

A Note from James:Marty Makary is the new head of the FDA, but he is also an old friend of the podcast. He's been on several times, and it's really important to know how this is going to be a new and different FDA, and it's going to be molded by Marty's very specific opinions about healthcare and the medical industry—and here they are.Episode Description:In this episode, James reconnects with Dr. Marty Makary, now heading the FDA, to discuss what's broken in the American healthcare system—and what can actually be done about it. Marty pulls back the curtain on the realities of medical pricing, why unnecessary surgeries happen more often than most suspect, and how medical education is failing future doctors and patients alike. They explore the origins of Marty's bestselling books, the TV adaptation of Unaccountable, and why your hospital bill may have little to do with actual care. This conversation is a rare window into what's really happening inside hospitals and policy rooms—and what the future of smarter, more humane healthcare could look like.What You'll Learn:Why 11% of surgeries and 21% of all medical care may be unnecessary—and what's driving that trend.How hidden costs, out-of-network billing, and surprise charges are crippling Americans financially.What reforms are gaining traction in Congress and why hospitals may be resisting them.How nutrition, inflammation, and simple wellness practices are overlooked in modern medicine.What questions you should ask your doctor to avoid inappropriate or excessive care.Timestamped Chapters:[00:00] Introduction to Marty Makary and the New FDA[01:17] From Book to TV Show: The Journey of Unaccountable[03:42] The Price We Pay: Unveiling Healthcare Costs[09:06] Medical Education and Its Flaws[15:01] The Hidden Costs of Healthcare[34:52] Inappropriate Care and Its Consequences[43:14] The Referral Business in Medicine[44:00] Unnecessary Surgeries: A National Concern[44:48] Malpractice Fears and Their Impact[47:33] The Overuse of Antibiotics[50:28] Inappropriate Medical Care: Real-Life Examples[53:45] The Role of Nutrition and Wellness in Healthcare[58:15] Innovative Medical Education and Training[01:00:36] The Importance of Experience in Medical Practice[01:18:32] The Future of Healthcare: Inflammation and Biome Health[01:20:53] Final Thoughts and Practical Health TipsAdditional Resources:Dr. Marty Makary's websiteUnaccountable by Marty MakaryThe Price We Pay by Marty MakaryThe Resident (TV Series)Healthcare BluebookRestoring MedicineSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

He has run 10 marathons, with his latest being his fastest. Luke has experienced various running injuries, including hamstring tendinopathy. Hamstring tendinopathy can significantly impact daily life, not just athletic performance. The distinction between overuse and overload injuries is crucial in rehabilitation. Imaging is not always necessary for diagnosing tendinopathy. Hamstring tendinopathy is often under-researched compared to other tendon injuries. Daily activities, such as sitting, can exacerbate hamstring pain. A multifaceted approach is essential for effective rehabilitation. Strengthening exercises, particularly hamstring curls, are vital in recovery. Early hamstring rehabilitation focuses on building capacity and strength. Runners often lack strength training, impacting their recovery. Incorporating heavy lifting and compound movements is crucial. Plyometrics can enhance performance and aid in rehabilitation. Managing running frequency is essential for tendon recovery. Pain levels may not correlate directly with functional improvements. Capacity testing is vital for assessing recovery progress. Long-term recovery from tendinopathy can take over 12 months. Flare-ups during rehab are common and should be managed. Muscle and tendon adaptations should be targeted separately. Running technique significantly impacts proximal hamstring load. Trunk position and over-stride are critical factors in assessment. Flexibility in runners may not always correlate with performance. Rehabilitation strategies should focus on individual needs. Shockwave therapy has mixed results for tendinopathy treatment. Field sports present unique challenges in managing injuries. Distal hamstring tendinopathy is less common but still relevant. Metabolic conditions can trigger various tendinopathies. Continuous learning and adaptation are essential in rehabilitation. AI may play a future role in predicting running injuries.

Welcome to the Choosing Wisely Campaign series! This 6-part series will explore the ABIM Foundation's Choosing Wisely Campaign, its historical precedent, and its goals. We will discuss how this initiative aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. The introduction episode dives into the historic 2010 editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine that inspired over 80 professional societies to write their “Top 5 Lists” of tests and procedures that could be avoided in evidence-based care. To better understand the problem, we then pick apart the survey that provided insight into why we over order and the harm it causes to vulnerable populations. In the coming episodes, we'll explore the pediatric lists and apply our knowledge to cases of common presentations seen in primary and acute care pediatrics. Author: Becky Carson, DNP, APRN, CPNP-PC/AC www.thepedsnp.com Instagram: @thepedsnppodcast Series Learning Objectives: Introduction to the Choosing Wisely Campaign: Understand the origins, historical precedent, and primary goals of the campaign. Case-Based Applications: Explore five common presentations in primary and acute care pediatrics, applying concepts from various Choosing Wisely lists to guide management and resource stewardship. Effective Communication: Learn strategies for engaging in tough conversations with parents and colleagues to create allies and ensure evidence-based practices are followed.

Agencies must now diversify data sources.Email Infrastructure Strategy: Nick recommends splitting accounts evenly across Google, Microsoft, and SMTP providers (like MailReef), using separate tenants for each domain to reduce risk.Top Tools Mentioned: Smartlead, Instantly, LeadMagic, Salesfinity (for cold calling), Clay, HyperType, ListKit.Cold Email Templates That Work: Short emails with a bold subject line, a clearly stated pain point, social proof, and a clear CTA. Two-step sequences are outperforming long follow-ups.AI in Cold Email: Use AI for variable enrichment (like local restaurants or recent promotions) — but not for full email writing. Over-automation feels robotic and gets ignored.Cold Calling Rebirth: Combining parallel dialers, voicemails, and email follow-ups creates a high-performing outbound flywheel. Nick's simple pitch script: “Can I get 30 seconds, or tell me to kick rocks?”Warm-Up Pools Controversy: Instantly and Smartlead warm-up pools have downsides. Use them carefully and always monitor bounce rates.Who Should Use Cold Email?✔ SaaS, agencies, and service businesses with high LTVs ($5K+) ✔ Founders with a unique, compelling offer ✔ Companies with a working sales process & CRM follow-up ✘ Commodity offers (e.g., generic e-comm marketing) with no clear differentiationNotable Quotes"Don't build a pricing model on a hack. It's a matter of time until it breaks." "Most people overthink deliverability — bad offers are the real issue." "You can get 0.8% replies or 0% if your inbox gets shut down — choose wisely."Guest Links:https://www.leadbird.io/https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-abrahamhttps://x.com/NickAbraham12

Sun Cosmetics: Circadian Biology Webinar Part 3 | Improvement Warrior Podcast Episode #72This podcast is the preview episode of my Premium Improvement Warrior University webinar: Circadian Biology Webinar part 3: Sun Cosmetics. Sun cosmetics are one of the biggest issues in people NOT getting enough sun. And not getting enough sun is one of the biggest risk factors for modern man diseases. We go about 40 minutes for this preview. For the full podcast either join as a Patreon member (http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/patreon) or become a member of Improvement Warrior University Premium (http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/iwu). Highlight SummarySunlight and Health: Natural sunlight is vital for regulating our circadian rhythm, enhancing mitochondrial health, and overall well-being.Role of Melanin: Melanin protects against UV damage, supports vitamin D synthesis, and acts as an antioxidant. Blocking its production through sunscreens and covering up can lead to vulnerabilities.Mood Enhancement: Sunlight spurs the release of beta endorphins, improving mood and reducing stress. Overuse of sun-blocking methods can hinder this natural benefit.Dangers of Sunscreen: Many sunscreens can disrupt hormonal balance and block essential vitamin D synthesis, raising long-term health risks.Impact of Sunglasses: Sunglasses may disrupt circadian rhythm and inhibit melanin production, affecting overall health.Hormones and Nitric Oxide: Sun exposure is crucial for hormone production and cardiovascular health through nitric oxide release.Natural Protection: Embrace safe sun exposure and natural sun protection methods like antioxidant-rich oils and a diet rich in seafood.Balancing Modern Life: Integrate regular outdoor activities and natural light exposure into daily routines to harmonize modern living with nature's benefits.Resources Mentioned (any resources missing please let me know) Improvement Warrior Newsletter: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/nlAll Light Related Recommend Products: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/blueblockersSunglasses Unknown Death Causers Part 1: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/sunglassesSunscreen Unknown Death Causers Part 2: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/sunscreenFull Circadian Biology Part 3 Webinar: Patreon: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/patreon | IWU Premium: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/iwuDopamine Webinar: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/dopamineVitamin D Home Test http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/vitamindtestKoze Blue LIght Free Lights: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/koze (code IMPROVEMENTWARRIOR)Kiniki" http://tinyurl.com/yunkinikiCircadian App: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/circadianapp (Code YUN316)Mitochondriac Guide: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/mitochondriacSocialFB http://www.facebook.com/sun.yun.jasonIG http://www.instagram.com/sun.yun.jasonTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/YuntrainingYoutube: http://www.youtube.com/YunTraining Links to support through Patreon and other channelsPatreon: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/patreonPaypal: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/paypalAnchor: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/anchorKO-FI: http://www.improvementwarriorfitness.com/kofi

Have you ever wondered if steroids are the best choice for managing your eczema? While both topical and oral steroids offer quick relief from severe eczema flares, understanding their long-term risks and safer alternatives can dramatically improve your quality of life. In this episode, Dr. Mondana Ghias joins Kortney and Dr. Gupta to discuss the complex role of systemic corticosteroids in eczema management. They dive deep into the short-term relief that steroids provide for severe eczema symptoms and emphasize why steroids must be approached cautiously due to potential side effects and dependency risks. Dr. Ghias also highlights the unique challenges of eczema care for individuals with skin of color, addressing differences in treatment response and the common issue of hypopigmentation caused by topical steroids. What we cover in our episode about steroid use in eczema treatment: Role of Systemic Steroids: When steroids are necessary and how they quickly manage severe eczema flares. Risks and Side Effects: Understanding the serious long-term effects of systemic and topical steroids. Steroid Withdrawal: Recognizing the signs of steroid withdrawal and strategies to manage rebound effects. Challenges of Topical Steroids for Skin of Color: The unique risks of steroid use and managing hypopigmentation. Alternatives to Steroids and Innovative Treatments: The rise of biologics and targeted therapies offering safer, long-term solutions. The Importance of Specialist Care: Working with a dermatologist or allergist will help you find a sustainable long-term management plan. Made in partnership with The Allergy & Asthma Network.

Ever wonder if the “asthma shot” from the ER, or those go-to steroid pills for your asthma flares, might be doing more harm than good? Dr. Dipa Sheth joins us to discuss the common pitfalls of relying too heavily on oral corticosteroids (OCS), also known as oral steroids. We unpack why these systemic medications should generally be reserved for short-term use. She also shares how improving asthma control can help you avoid frequent steroid use in the first place. Although oral steroids can effectively treat asthma flare-ups in emergency settings, overuse poses significant risks, from adrenal insufficiency to osteoporosis. We dig into ways patients can proactively manage their asthma, reduce ER visits, and talk to healthcare providers about preventive treatments (like inhalers or biologics for asthma) that keep inflammation in check without the side effects of frequent steroid use. Note: Although we discuss oral corticoid steroids, they can also be given as injections or via IV drip for asthma. We would also like to refer to them as systemic steroids as they impact the entire body, unlike inhaled steroids, which target the airways and lungs. What we cover in our episode about oral steroid overuse Understanding Oral Corticosteroids (OCS): Learn what these steroids (often called the “asthma shot” in the ER) are and how they can help with severe flare-ups. Why Overusing Steroids Can Be Risky: Discover the potential long-term side effects of relying on systemic steroids (pills, injections, or IV), from adrenal insufficiency and osteoporosis to more frequent infections. Short-Term Fix vs. Lasting Relief for Asthma Care: Learn how urgent care or ER visits may mask an under-managed condition and why seeing a specialist can improve asthma control. Safer Alternatives to OCS: Explore inhaled corticosteroids, biologics, and other preventive treatments that target asthma at its source, reducing the need for frequent steroids. Taking Control and Reducing ER Visits: Get practical strategies for working with your healthcare provider to minimize steroid use, prevent flare-ups, and break free from the cycle of repeated steroid courses.

By now, many of you have heard of my coined term, The Mitochondrial Triad, which comprises the three most effective and efficacious ways (in my opinion) to optimize mitochondrial function. At the end of the day, mitochondrial function is the foundation of wellness and longevity until proven otherwise. With that being said, The Triad is not set in stone and is fluid based on new information, research, etc., meaning it could grow to a quad, quint and beyond. However, it would take a powerful modality, molecule, etc. with rigorous studies to make the cut. But by the end of today's conversation with renowned pharmacist and author, Dr. Nayan Patel, the case can be made that glutathione should be heavily considered.The kicker with glutathione is that we produce it endogenously, so we have some control over its abundance or depletion in our body. After all, it is the master antioxidant in our body and quenches oxidative stress, so given its powerful electron-donating properties (similar, but not exactly the same as methylene blue and C60), you can imagine the health benefits it provides when at proper levels and what happens when our body is depleted.Dr. Patel is a sought after pharmacist, wellness expert, and thought leader in his industry. He has been working with physicians since 1999 to custom develop medication for their clients and design a patient-specific drug and nutrition regimen. He has been the pharmacist of choice to celebrities, CEOs and physicians themselves. He recently published his first comprehensive book, The Glutathione Revolution. After 11 years of clinical research on the master antioxidant, glutathione, Dr. Patel and his team developed a patented technology to deliver glutathione topically, changing the game on how best to absorb GSH systemically. From this technology he additionally developed The Auro GSH Antioxidant Delivery System to create a skincare line to deliver antioxidants more efficiently and effectively than ever before at potent concentrations. If you found the information in today's episode with Dr. Nayan Patel particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

Alan welcomes frequent guest and co-host Dr. Matt Standridge back to Very Dental. They dive into the evolving landscape of dental practice ownership, comparing traditional solo practices with the increasing prevalence of DSOs. The conversation explores the current incentives and hurdles for new dentists, the impact of rising dental school debt, and the practical aspects of introducing advanced procedures like aligner therapy and all-on-X implants into general practices. They also touch on the phenomenon of influencer culture in dentistry and its implications. Mostly they just laugh about our absurd profession and how it continues to change. Key Takeaways: Private practice ownership is becoming increasingly challenging due to factors like rising costs, insurance reimbursements, and patient expectations. The "one doctor, one owner" model may become less common, with more practices incorporating associates or transitioning to alternative models. Many young dentists are less driven by ownership and more interested in alternative career paths, including becoming a dental influencer. Overuse of all-on-X procedures is a concern, with potential for complications and ethical considerations. Orthodontic training, particularly with aligners, offers a high ROI and can improve overall dental skills. "Bread and butter" dentistry still has value and shouldn't be dismissed. Beware of "style over substance" in dentistry, particularly when it comes to advanced procedures. Mentorship (or "coaching") can be valuable, but find trusted sources.
