Chronic rhinitis, often mistaken for a cold or seasonal allergies, is marked by common nasal symptoms such as a runny nose and post-nasal drip lasting around three months. Do-Yeon Cho, M.D., explains how chronic rhinitis may be allergic, non-allergic, or mixed, and how the diagnosis affects management. He reviews treatment options including antihistamines, nasal steroid sprays, saline rinses, prescription anticholinergic sprays, and a new nerve ablation procedure for persistent symptoms. Learn how avoiding triggers and practicing nasal hygiene are important parts of long-term symptom control.

Asthma affects over 26 million people in the U.S., yet outcomes can vary dramatically based on factors beyond disease severity. This episode explores the critical gap between diagnosis and optimal asthma control, focusing on how socioeconomic status, access to care, and environmental exposures shape patient outcomes. Through a mock case study, we examine disparities in healthcare access, allergist availability, and treatment adherence, alongside key topics such as epidemiology, risk stratification, environmental trigger identification, diagnostic testing and interpretation, and guideline-based management. The discussion highlights the role of allergic sensitization in asthma pathophysiology and emphasizes the importance of comprehensive specific IgE testing in identifying root causes. Clinicians will gain actionable strategies to improve diagnosis, implement cost-effective interventions, and optimize asthma management directly within primary care settings.

The following article of the E-Commerce & Retail industry is: 'Circularity in Practice: Prioritizing Practical Solutions' by Patrick Lassauzet, Head of PR & Corporate Communications, SHEIN Mexico.

Guided Question When conflicts arise with other believers, do I rely on worldly methods of self-preservation, or do I trust God's Spirit and His people to help me walk in love, humility, and faith? Summary In this sermon on 1 Corinthians 6, Dr. Robert Lewis addresses the problem of lawsuits among Christians in Corinth. The issue was not simply about legal disputes but about a deeper spiritual problem: the Corinthians had forgotten their theology and were living with a worldly spirit of survival rather than the Spirit-filled life. Paul reminds the church that theology is not abstract or academic; it shapes everyday life and decisions. Believers are called to live out their future destiny now—managing disputes with wisdom, humility, and a focus on God's Kingdom rather than possessions or personal rights. Instead of taking one another to court, Paul calls for Christian arbitration or, if necessary, Christian resignation, following the example of Christ who surrendered His rights for the sake of love. Ultimately, Paul urges the Corinthians to remember who they are: washed, sanctified, and justified in Christ. Forgetting this truth leads them backward into a lifestyle of hopelessness, while remembering it moves them forward toward their destiny as Spirit-filled heirs of the Kingdom. Outline I. The Problem Identified (vv. 1–6) Christians were suing Christians in secular courts. Root issue: living as if theology has no place in daily life. Lawsuits reflected greed, selfishness, and immaturity in the faith. II. The Theological Reminder (vv. 2–4, 9–11) “Do you not know?” repeated six times—calling them back to forgotten theology. Believers will one day judge the world and even angels. Christians must live now in light of their eternal destiny. To sue one another is to live like those outside the Kingdom. Remember your identity: washed, sanctified, and justified. III. The Practical Solutions (vv. 5–8) Christian Arbitration — seek resolution through wise believers and church leadership. Christian Resignation — if necessary, yield rather than destroy relationships or Christ's reputation. IV. The Call to Move Forward (vv. 9–11) Do not retreat into sin and hopelessness. Live as Spirit-filled people who display God's love and forgiveness. Theology must inform daily relationships and decisions. Key Takeaways Theology is for life, not just the classroom. Biblical truth is meant to shape our daily decisions and relationships. Conflict among believers must be handled spiritually, not through worldly systems. The church is equipped with God's Word and Spirit to resolve disputes. Possessions are never more important than people. Giving in for the sake of love protects unity and honors Christ. Remember your identity. We are washed, sanctified, and justified—called to live as heirs of God's Kingdom. Moving forward requires Spirit-filled living. Retreating into selfishness and greed leads to defeat; surrender to the Spirit leads to peace and maturity. Scripture References 1 Corinthians 6:1–11 – Lawsuits among believers and reminder of our identity in Christ. Matthew 5:40 – Jesus' teaching on surrendering possessions rather than fighting. Revelation 20:4–6 – Believers' future destiny to rule with Christ. Proverbs 18:19 – The difficulty of restoring an offended brother. Acts 18:8 – Corinthians' baptism as a sign of leaving the old life behind. Recorded 9/6/81

In this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons sits down with cancer researcher and author Mark Lintern for a provocative conversation that challenges one of the most deeply rooted assumptions in modern oncology: that cancer is primarily a genetic disease.Drawing from his book The Cancer Resolution?, Mark introduces his Cell Suppression Theory, a framework that argues cancer may be driven less by random mutation and more by chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, immune suppression, and a possible infectious component involving fungal pathogens.Together, Dr. Jenn and Mark explore why the current model of cancer leaves so many unanswered questions, how the metabolic theory shifted the conversation, and why terrain, mitochondria, immune health, toxins, stress, and chronic inflammation may all matter more than most patients have been told.If you are looking for a conversation that challenges conventional thinking and opens the door to a broader view of breast cancer and whole-body health, this episode is a must-listen.What You'll Learn:Why the dominant genetic model of cancer does not fully explain the diseaseWhat the Warburg effect is and why it matters in cancer researchHow the metabolic theory of cancer changed the conversation around treatmentHow chronic inflammation, toxins, immune dysfunction, and tissue damage may create the conditions for cancerWhy mitochondria play a much bigger role in cancer than most people realizeHow fungal pathogens fit into cancer developmentWhy microbiome health, detoxification, and stress regulation matter in prevention and healingWhat makes breast tissue uniquely vulnerable in this conversation around estrogen, immunity, and inflammationEpisode Timeline:00:00 Introduction to a Different Conversation About Cancer04:45 Mark Lintern's Journey Into Cancer Research07:34 Why the Somatic Mutation Theory Falls Short10:41 The Metabolic Theory and the Warburg Effect13:40 The Possible Role of Pathogens in Cancer16:32 The Hallmarks That Define Cancer19:19 Cancer Diagnosis Versus Active Disease22:08 The Cell Suppression Theory Explained27:06 Practical Solutions for Prevention and Healing30:02 Foundations of a More Holistic Cancer Approach33:49 Cortisol, Stress, and the Healing Environment41:49 Why Antifungal Treatments Are So Challenging43:45 Can We Identify the Pathogens Inside Tumors?46:30 Why the System Resists New Cancer Models51:04 Breast Cancer, Estrogen, and Tissue Vulnerability55:21 Estrogen, Inflammation, and Fungal Overgrowth58:55 Final Thoughts on Prevention and Whole-Body HealthLearn more about Mark Lintern and get his book here: https://www.celTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with Dr. Jenn visit: https://calendly.com/stephanie-1031/clarity-callTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.jennsimmonsmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons

Send a textIn this Friday 5 episode of The Autoimmune RESET Podcast, I'm talking about something that many people with autoimmune conditions experience, but that isn't always discussed in enough depth — hand health.For many individuals, the hands are one of the first places symptoms show up. Cold fingers, colour changes, stiffness, pain, weakness, or reduced dexterity can all reflect deeper processes happening in the body, including circulation instability, nervous system dysregulation, connective tissue vulnerability, or immune-driven inflammation. Conditions such as Raynaud's phenomenon, inflammatory arthritis, hypermobility syndromes, and autoimmune connective tissue disorders often manifest visibly in the hands long before other symptoms fully develop.In this episode, I share both clinical insights and personal observations, alongside five practical strategies that can make a meaningful difference. We explore how stabilising circulation supports tissue health, why nervous system regulation plays a central role in blood flow, and how connective tissue and joint support influence long-term hand function. I also discuss the importance of warmth, sensory stimulation, and daily micro-practices that help maintain mobility and comfort.This conversation emphasises that supporting hand health is not only about external measures — creams, braces, or heat — but also about addressing internal physiology, including nutrient status, inflammation, and nervous system balance.As always, the goal is not perfection, but consistency. Small daily practices layered over time can create significant improvements.If you experience persistent pain, colour changes, numbness, or reduced function in your hands, it is always worth investigating underlying drivers rather than simply accepting symptoms as inevitable.Key TakeawaysThe hands are often an early indicator of immune and connective tissue issues.Circulation stability is fundamental for tissue health and comfort.Nervous system regulation directly influences blood flow to the extremities.Supporting connective tissue and joints improves strength and resilience.Warmth and sensory stimulation can significantly improve microcirculation.Consistent daily care matters more than occasional interventions.Persistent symptoms should prompt deeper investigation.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Hand Health and Autoimmune Clues 02:25 Stabilising Circulation 05:49 Nervous System Regulation 07:49 Supporting Connective Tissue and Joints 10:41 Keeping Hands Warm 12:07 Sensory Tools for Microcirculation 14:24 Final Thoughts and Support→ I personally use and recommend Shakti, because it's one of the simplest ways to shift out of “fight or flight” and into a calmer state — supporting relaxation, body awareness, and better sleep quality over time.Use my code: VJ10 for 10% off at checkout: https://www.shaktimat.co.uk/vj

In this conversation, Bethany and Dr. Don Watenpaugh, PHD, D, ABSM, address some listener questions and dive deeper into the intricate relationship between concussions and sleep. They explore practical strategies for managing sleep when faced with non-traditional schedules, unpack the vicious cycle of insomnia, and discuss the pros and cons of sleep aids. Dr. Watenpaugh provides science-backed advice on everything from racing thoughts at bedtime to the historical concept of biphasic sleep, always tying it back to the critical goal of optimizing brain recovery after a concussion. This episode is packed with actionable insights for anyone struggling with sleep during their concussion recovery.Key Topics DiscussedShift Work & Circadian Rhythms: Advice for those working night shifts or odd hours, emphasizing the critical need for a consistent sleep-wake schedule—even on days off—to avoid "shift work sleep disorder" and support brain healing.Managing a Racing Mind at Bedtime: Differentiating between perseverating on a specific problem (solution: a handwritten "bedtime journal") and having truly random, racing thoughts (solution: encourage the thoughts and "dream yourself to sleep").The Power of Consistency: Re-establishing that a regular wake time, exposure to bright light, and movement/activity first thing in the "morning" (even if it's dark outside) is the most powerful tool for entraining your circadian rhythm.Biphasic ("Two") Sleep: Exploring the historical concept of sleeping in two segments and whether it has any relevance or benefit for modern humans and concussion recovery.Sleep Medications & Concussion: A nuanced discussion on the role of sleep aids, including:The value of "break the glass in case of emergency" use.The often-overlooked danger of fall risk for concussion patients with balance issues.How insomnia can lead to counterproductive behaviors (napping, caffeine overuse) that make the problem worse.Caffeine & Sleep Quality: Why avoiding caffeine after early afternoon is crucial, and clarifying that it degrades the quality of deep (delta) sleep, which is essential for brain recovery.The Role of an Advocate: Reinforcing how critical it is for a friend or family member to support a concussion patient, as the cognitive symptoms can be severe and make self-advocacy difficult.Resources MentionedLiving Concussion Guidelines: Dr. Watenpaugh highly recommends this resource for its evidence-based recommendations.Website: concussionsontario.orgPrevious Conversation: For foundational knowledge on sleep, listen to Part 1 of this discussion.Episode: 122 - A Deep Dive into Sleep with Dr. Don WatenpaughConnect with Dr. Don WatenpaughWebsite: ⁠https://www.studiovidenda.com/⁠Bethany Lewis & The Concussion Coach:Free Guide: "5 Best Ways to Support Your Loved One Dealing with a Concussion" - Download at https://theconcussioncoach.com/Concussion Coaching Program: For personalized mentorship in recovery.

In the final installment of A New Contract With America, Professor Nick Giordano lays out the last two pillars needed to restore America's strength, prosperity, and legitimacy. Part Three focuses on achieving true energy independence, unlocking America's rare earth mineral wealth to fuel economic revival, and restoring trust in elections through commonsense reforms that ensure transparency, accountability, and confidence in the system. These are not theoretical ideas or costly government programs. They are practical, achievable solutions that strengthen national security, lower the cost of living, and reconnect Americans to institutions they no longer trust. This episode ties all ten reforms together and explains how they work in concert to build a freer, stronger, more fiscally responsible America. Episode Highlights How energy independence and rare earth mineral development can spark economic growth and strengthen national security Why election integrity reforms are essential to restoring faith in democracy and increasing voter participation How all ten reforms in A New Contract With America work together to create a more prosperous, free, and accountable nation

Have you ever caught yourself wondering, "Why am I always worried?" Maybe you've experienced persistent stomach pains, digestion issues, or find yourself always irritated with shortness of breath. These symptoms often accompany a worried mind. In this blog post, we will explore the impacts of worry on the body and delve into spiritual and practical steps to find relief. While I am not a doctor or therapist, I draw insights from scripture and personal experiences in hopes of offering you some guidance.Scriptural Insights on WorryingWhat effect does worrying have on our bodies? Various scriptures address the theme of anxiety, such as "be anxious for nothing" and "do not worry about what you will eat or wear," particularly noted in Matthew. These exhortations caution against letting worry overtake our lives. While the nervous system's response to danger is vital, prolonged states of worry can be harmful, a perspective informed by both science and faith.Personal Anecdote: The Fitness ClientThroughout my years teaching fitness, I encountered clients, like one particular woman, who found exercise sessions became another source of anxiety. This was due to underlying worries in her life that were not initially apparent. This experience taught me that addressing issues from a spiritual standpoint can significantly aid physical wellness. By integrating spiritual health, the benefits of physical activities can be magnified.The Physical Impact of WorryingWorrying signals to your body that there is a persistent threat, triggering the release of chemicals like cortisol and adrenaline. While these are beneficial in genuine emergencies, constant worry places you in a harmful state, known as survival mode. This state can lead to symptoms like stomach pains, exhaustion, sleep problems, and brain fog. Understanding these physical reactions underscores the importance of addressing chronic worry.Spiritual Perspective on WorryingWorry not only affects the body but also creates a spiritual wedge. Scriptures encourage us not to be anxious, arguing that worry doesn't add to our life span.

What if your healthcare choices could align with both your family’s budget and your faith? In an era where medical bills climb higher and insurance offers less, Christian parents are left searching for answers. In this eye-opening episode, Catherine sits down with Dr. Ian Day, a practicing physician of more than 25 years and the Chief Medical Officer of Medishare, to explore a radical, Christ-centered alternative to traditional healthcare. Healthcare is one of the greatest stressors for families today—unexpected bills, confusing coverage, and ethical compromises have made many believers feel helpless. But what if there was another way? What if solutions from the early church could provide both practical relief and spiritual support? Medishare is a not-for-profit healthcare sharing ministry, bringing Christians together to share medical bills and bear one another's burdens—both physical and spiritual. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: Healthcare Sharing Ministries Demystified: Dr. Day explains the mission behind Medishare, how Christian care ministry works, and why it’s more than just a “healthcare product”—it’s a biblical community modeled on Acts 2 and 4, where believers share both financial and spiritual burdens. What is Biblical Wellness? Discover Dr. Day’s holistic approach to wellness—caring for body, mind, and spirit—and learn how Medishare members are encouraged to prioritize spiritual health right alongside physical and emotional well-being. The True Causes Behind Skyrocketing Costs: Dr. Day breaks down exactly why premiums, deductibles, and medical expenses are spiraling, from prescription costs and hospital consolidation to administrative complexity and the lingering effects of the pandemic. Practical Solutions for Christian Households: Listeners get actionable advice on navigating the coming years, including the role of telemedicine, the importance of stewardship and lifestyle choices, and crucial tips for evaluating healthcare sharing ministries. Values-Driven Coverage: Catherine and Dr. Day wrestle openly with the ethical dilemmas of traditional insurance—funding procedures that oppose biblical beliefs—and celebrate Medishare’s commitment to supporting adoption, maternity, and life-affirming care while excluding services contrary to Christian values. Real Hope, Real Stories: Dr. Day shares moving examples of families whose lives were transformed by Medishare’s practical support, long-term care, and prayerful partnership—highlighting the difference a faith-based approach can make in life’s hardest moments. If you’ve ever wondered why your insurance seems to cover less and cost more—or questioned if your family’s healthcare can truly reflect your faith and values—this episode delivers understanding, clarity, and hope. Catherine closes with a reminder that believers are called to be the answer in a broken world, echoing the early church’s radical love and practical care. Why This Matters: As Catherine puts it, “For all the broken systems in our world, the church needs to be the answer. Believers need to be the answer.” If you’re a Christian parent wrestling with big questions about stewardship, wellness, and truly living your faith in every aspect of life—including those daunting healthcare decisions—this episode will both equip and encourage you. Parenting Takeaway: What steps can you take to model biblical stewardship, community support, and faith-driven discernment in how your family approaches healthcare—body, mind, and spirit? Meet the Guest: Dr. Ian Day is a dedicated leader in faith-based healthcare. Through Medi-Share, Dr. Day has championed a unique model where Christians come together to share medical bills and support each other spiritually, all in alignment with biblical values. With more than 30 years of proven service, Dr. Day has helped Medi-Share become the most trusted name in healthcare sharing, facilitating over $50 million in shared medical expenses each month. He is committed to providing Christian families with a compassionate, God-honoring alternative to traditional insurance, ensuring members are supported not just financially, but also with prayer and encouragement along their healthcare journey.

The panel shares their approaches to complex scenarios—from fragile conduits and calcified aortas to dissected mammaries and “full metal jacket” targets—offering insight into preparation, technique, and team communication.

Today, I am thrilled to reconnect with a previous guest, Dr. Mary Claire Haver.  Dr. Haver is a board-certified OBGYN, a certified menopause provider, and the founder of Mary Claire Wellness, a private medical practice focusing on women in midlife. Her best-selling book, the Galveston Diet, and her latest New York Times best-seller, The New Menopause, are fabulous resources for middle-aged women. In our discussion today, we dive into various aspects of perimenopause, looking at the associated challenges. We discuss factors accelerating ovarian aging, the role of contraception, mental health shifts, and the often delayed diagnosis of premature ovarian insufficiency. We examine the differences between hormone replacement therapy and oral contraceptives, discussing the importance of advocacy for women's health and the benefits of vaginal estrogen. We explore the disparity in federal funding for women's health research, the impact of the Women's Health Initiative, body composition changes, the estrabolome, the 30 Plant Challenge, and the advantages of HRT. Dr. Haver also talks about her preferred supplements.  I'm sure you will find this conversation a valuable resource that you will likely revisit several times. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Why perimenopause is so fraught with chaos Some of the factors that hasten ovarian aging How perimenopause causes significant changes in neurotransmitters, leading to cognitive changes The differences between HRT and oral contraceptives How estrogen loss during menopause affects vaginal tissue The benefits of vaginal estrogen for symptoms of menopause  How women's health research funding prioritizes reproduction over menopause and perimenopause How HRT can help with fat loss and muscle mass in postmenopausal women The emergence of eating-disordered behaviors in menopausal women Some of the lesser-known symptoms of menopause and ways to overcome them How HRT could impact the longevity and cognitive health of women Bio: Dr Mary Claire Haver Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a board-certified OB-GYN who has devoted her adult life to women's health. When she began to experience the changes of menopause and mid-life weight gain, she created her online program, The Galveston Diet, which currently has over 80,000 students. The Galveston Diet is the first and only nutrition program in the world created by a female OB-GYN, designed for women in menopause. As part of her ongoing research, she became certified in Culinary Medicine in 2019, specializing in medical nutrition. In 2021, Dr. Haver opened Mary Claire Wellness; the clinic was born out of repeated requests from the Galveston Diet students and Dr. Haver's social media followers for personal guidance.  Dr. Haver lives with her husband and two daughters in Galveston, Texas.
