Before she was a Netflix documentary, Reagan Simmons-Hancock had a name, a daughter, and a baby due in weeks. This is the part the cameras skipped. The Netflix documentary Maternal Instinct tells the story of Taylor Parker, who faked a pregnancy for nearly a year — fake ultrasounds, a silicone belly, even a gender reveal — before committing one of the rarest and most disturbing crimes there is: fetal abduction. In 2020, in the tiny town of New Boston, Texas, that lie ended in the murder of her friend Reagan Simmons-Hancock. Tyrella and Nikita walk through how a con artist with a fabricated oil-and-gas fortune slowly escalated toward the unthinkable. Part 1 traces Reagan's life and the years of deception by Taylor Parker that led to October 9th: the cons, the fake inheritance, the invented villains, and the warnings no one could legally act on. Part 2 covers everything Netflix left out — what Taylor did from behind bars. Patrons have it now; everyone else, it drops Thursday. Content warning: this episode discusses graphic violence and the death of an infant.

Vitamin K2 (MK-7) and Coronary Artery Calcification: Insights from a 2-Year Trial: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a two-year randomized clinical trial in JAMA Cardiology from Maastricht University Medical Center reporting that daily vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, MK-7) at 360 mcg slowed progression of coronary artery calcification (CAC) in 180 patients with confirmed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and baseline CAC 50–400 Agatston units. Compared with placebo, consistent MK-7 use was associated with 29% lower CAC progression and 42% less arterial calcium mass progression, though CAC still increased in both groups; stenosis increases were numerically lower with MK-7 but not statistically significant. Leyla notes many participants were on statins and were smokers, highlighting that statins can raise CAC by stabilizing soft plaque via calcification. The trial suggests MK-7 may slow calcification in newer plaques, may improve arterial elasticity via matrix GLA protein activation, is inexpensive and safe, but clinical event reduction remains unproven; Leyla suggests considering MK-7 (possibly 360 mcg) with vitamin D, magnesium, and dietary measures.

Taylor Parker spent years constructing a web of lies, convincing friends, family, and even those closest to her that she was living a life that never existed. What began as deception eventually spiraled into one of the most shocking true crime cases in recent Texas history. In this episode, we examine the murder of Reagan Hancock, who was preparing to welcome her daughter, Braxlynn Sage Hancock, when prosecutors say Parker's elaborate fake pregnancy was on the verge of being exposed. Instead of admitting the truth, investigators believe Parker carried out a horrifying plan that ended in unimaginable violence. We'll break down the timeline, the investigation, the evidence presented at trial, and how years of manipulation ultimately unraveled. This is the full story behind one of America's most disturbing capital murder cases. If you enjoy in-depth true crime storytelling, be sure to follow True Crime Recaps for new episodes every week.

Taylor Parker Maternal Instinct — the fake pregnancy was the crescendo, not the first note. Long before Taylor Parker told Wade Griffin she was carrying his child, she was rehearsing. Cancer. MS. A brain tumor. A stroke she performed on camera with symptoms convincing enough to fool the people closest to her. Each lie she got away with built the foundation for the next.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the full arc of Taylor Parker's deception in this conversation — from the fabricated medical emergencies to the silicone belly, the stolen ultrasound images, and the nine-month performance that ended in the death of Reagan Simmons-Hancock and her unborn daughter. What does a professional trained in behavioral patterns see in this case that the average viewer doesn't?Before Wade Griffin, Taylor fixated on her friend Kenzie's real pregnancy — tried to plan the gender reveal, asked to access her pregnancy-tracking app. Kenzie cut her off. Taylor packed up, moved to a new town, and started over with a new audience. Her brother told the court her personality changed after weight loss surgery. The people who knew her longest say the woman in the documentary is unrecognizable.This interview puts the biggest question on the table: was the pregnancy the moment Taylor Parker snapped, or just the lie that finally got too big to sustain?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Happy Father's Day from the New York Times! Allie highlights a number of headlines from the outlet bashing fathers instead of revering them (even Mother's Day isn't safe).

Gestational diabetes is one of those topics that every pregnant mama needs to understand way before she ever gets to that 28 week test, whether she thinks it applies to her or not. And I could not be more excited about who I brought in to talk about it today.Bonnie and Karina are midwives in Davis County Utah and two of my favorite people in the birth world. I met them early in my birth work journey and I have never stopped being grateful for it. Bonnie has a background in nutrition and has been in birth work since 2014. Karina has had type one diabetes for over 35 years and lives this every single day. Between the two of them, they know more about gestational diabetes than most providers you will ever sit across from. I have actually told Bonnie that if I ever get pregnant again, I am either flying her out to me or heading to Utah, because these are the women I want in my corner.

When Jenna Fuhrman got pregnant, her prenatal appointments covered tests, screenings, and medications — but barely touched the factor with the deepest influence on fertility, pregnancy, and her child's lifelong health: what she eats. In this episode, she and her father, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, dig into what the research actually says. Most physicians get little nutrition training, even as the science on prenatal nutrition keeps growing — which means parents who want to give their child the best possible start often have to learn this for themselves. Joel and Jenna cover what to eat before conception and through all nine months, and why small dietary shifts can make a lasting difference for both mother and baby. What you'll learn: The surprising link between a father's diet, sperm quality, and miscarriage risk — why this isn't only about the mother Why what both parents eat before conception may shape fertility, miscarriage risk, and a child's long-term health Getting folate from greens and beans, and how it differs from synthetic folic acid Why Dr. Fuhrman recommends algae-derived DHA and EPA over fish during pregnancy Why ferritin testing — not just standard anemia screening — can reveal more about iron status Managing morning sickness and food aversions with small, frequent portions of nuts, seeds, and beans, without losing nutrient density Supporting healthy blood pressure and blood sugar through pregnancy Why a high-animal-protein diet may not be the optimal approach, and how plant protein supports a healthy baby Whether you're trying to conceive, currently pregnant, or planning ahead, this episode offers practical, science-backed guidance for nourishing both mother and baby.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Nathan Jones, founder and CEO of Xlear, Inc.

Nathan Jones, founder and CEO of Xlear, Inc., reveals xylitol's role in supporting oral and nasal “gateway” microbiomes by selectively starving acid-producing Strep mutans rather than indiscriminately killing bacteria, and warns that harsh mouthwashes can disrupt beneficial oral bacteria linked to nitric oxide production and possibly blood pressure. Jones outlines Spry and Xlear products (gum, mints, toothpaste, mouthwash, dry-mouth “Rain,” and upcoming gummy candies, a new dental probiotic with added nutrients, and a direct-to-consumer oral bacteria test kit with pre/post tracking). He discusses diet, emphasizing sugar as a key driver of cavities and criticizing limited focus on sugar in a Surgeon General oral health report. In part two, Jones describes ongoing and planned legal actions against the FTC over shifting evidentiary standards and reputational damage, then reviews Xlear's allergy and respiratory approach via nasal hygiene, product tiers (regular, Max with quercetin, Rescue botanicals, and a decongestant), and a forthcoming ectoine-based spray to support mucus barrier integrity.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Nathan Bryan, international Leader in Molecular Medicine, the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. 

Nitric Oxide Explained: Vascular Health, Exercise Performance, and N1o1 with Dr. Nathan Bryan, international Leader in Molecular Medicine, the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He details NO as a ubiquitous messenger affecting blood flow, erectile function, cognition, exercise performance, endothelial dysfunction, and aging-related declines in NO production. Bryan explains why PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra prolong cyclic GMP signaling but don't fix NO deficiency, and why beet products often fail due to variable nitrate content and inadequate dosing. He outlines his NO lozenge approach that generates NO gas from sodium nitrite and magnesium ascorbate, plus a fermented beet powder drink (NOBeets), and emphasizes the role of oral bacteria (and harms of antiseptic mouthwash/fluoride) in nitrate conversion. They review published endpoints, including flow-mediated dilation, blood pressure effects, inflammation markers, triglycerides, stem cells, plaque regression, applications to Alzheimer's, glaucoma/microvascular disease, safety/dosing considerations, risks of arginine supplementation, and a dual-chamber topical NO serum developed from wound-healing experience.

When Ashley Womble decides she wants to start a family, she worries she'll need to stop taking her antidepressant medication. Instead of finding clear guidance, she runs head-first into a troubling reality: many of the questions pregnant women and their physicians face about medication safety remain difficult to answer because pregnant women have historically been excluded from medical research. This episode looks at the ethical trade offs of leaving pregnant women out of medical research—and what happens when they and their doctors must make high stakes healthcare decisions without high quality evidence.This episode features:Ashley Womble, MPH: Writer and marketing professional.Ruth Faden, PhD, MPH: Philip Franklin Wagley Professor of Biomedical Ethics at the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics.Crystal Clark, MD, MSc: Associate Professor, Department of Psychiatry, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto.Marika Toscano, MD, MS: Assistant Professor of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.This episode contains references to suicide, which may be distressing for some listeners.

As colorectal cancer rates rise among younger adults, surgeons are increasingly caring for patients with rectal cancer who are pregnant or hoping to preserve future fertility. With more individuals delaying childbearing, balancing effective cancer treatment with fertility preservation and maternal–fetal safety has become an important clinical challenge. This timely topic was recently highlighted by Dr. Sharon Suwanabol during a presentation at the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons annual meeting 2026. In this episode, we explore the intersection of rectal cancer, fertility, and pregnancy through a multidisciplinary, case-based discussion. We review how surgery, chemotherapy, and pelvic radiation can affect fertility and sexual function in both men and women, and why early counseling and referral to reproductive endocrinology specialists are essential. The discussion also emphasizes that evaluation and treatment during pregnancy can often be performed safely, with care individualized based on tumor stage, gestational age, and the patient's goals and values. Hosts and discussants ·      Dr. Betelhem Yohannes, General surgery resident at the University of Washington ·      Dr. Griffen Allen, General surgery resident at the University of Washington  ·      Dr. Raga Siddharthan, Assistant Professor of Surgery in the Section of Colorectal Surgery at the University of Washington  ·      Dr. Stacey Cohen, Professor in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at the University of Washington and a gastrointestinal medical oncologist at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, specializing in colorectal and other GI cancers. Learning objectives ·      Describe the impact of rectal cancer surgery on fertility, sexual function, and future childbearing potential. ·      Review the effects of chemotherapy and pelvic radiation on reproductive health and fertility preservation. ·      Discuss available fertility preservation strategies and the importance of early pre-treatment counseling and referral. ·      Recognize the diagnostic challenges of rectal cancer during pregnancy, including overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms. ·      Review appropriate staging and workup considerations for suspected rectal cancer in pregnant patients. ·      Discuss multidisciplinary management strategies for rectal cancer during pregnancy, including individualized treatment sequencing. ·      Examine ethical and patient-centered considerations when balancing maternal cancer treatment and fetal outcomes. References  Siegel RL, Wagle NS, Star J, Kratzer TB, Smith RA, Jemal A.

113. When Jeani scheduled a doctor's visit to address hot flashes, night sweats, and an elevated FSH level, she assumed she was simply following in the footsteps of her mother and sisters who had all entered early menopause. Instead, a routine ultrasound revealed a dislodged IUD, and a month later, on September 11th, a positive pregnancy test that quite literally left her weak in the knees. At 43 years old, with her oldest daughter on the cusp of high school graduation, Jeani found herself forced to completely rewrite the blueprint for her upcoming retirement years. In this episode, she dives deep into the complex, heavy emotions that followed, bravely uncovering the profound sense of shame and unworthiness she carried throughout her pregnancy as she struggled to accept a gift she felt she hadn't planned for or deserved.Jeani pulls no punches when discussing the distinct physical and emotional differences of carrying a baby in her 40s versus her 20s. From an early fetal viability scare and a whole new level of bone-deep exhaustion to a sudden preeclampsia diagnosis at 38 weeks, her path to the delivery room required total mental endurance. She walks listeners through her intense, multi-hour induction in Sioux Falls, detailing the physical agony of a grueling hour-and-a-half push to deliver a sunny-side-up baby—and the incredible labor positioning trick from a seasoned nurse that finally brought her son safely to her chest. Looking back with a heart full of grace, Jeani shares an emotional message for other women navigating later-in-life motherhood, wishing she could tell her pregnant self to banish the embarrassment, accept the support of a baby shower, and fully celebrate the beautiful disruption of a mid-life miracle.Get the resources, transcript, and more information about this episode: https://over40fabulousandpregnant.com/episode113/Get Rejoova Eggs & Rejoova Repair.

In 2025, the Supreme Court of India declared maternity leave a fundamental right for working women. India is among the countries in the world where pregnant women are entitled to 26 weeks of paid maternity leave, which can be taken for up to two children. The move has been widely welcomed by women's rights advocates. But they emphasise that India still has a long way to go in ensuring the rights of working mothers. FRANCE 24's Navodita Kumari and Zubair Dar report.

Sharonne N. Hayes joins host Saranya Ravindran to discuss how cardiovascular disease presents differently in women. From pregnancy-related complications and menopause to microvascular disease and gaps in clinician education, this episode explores the importance of sex-specific cardiovascular care.

More than 60% of maternal deaths occur during the postpartum period, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are a major, preventable driver of that statistic. For too long, the transition from labor and delivery to home has been a vulnerable blind spot—leading to high rates of avoidablereadmissions. But the landscape has shifting. In this episode, we are diving deep into why OB providers must optimize blood pressure control before and after postpartum discharge. We'll be breaking down the landmark 2025 MOPP study, which shook up our traditional targets by examining tight versus standard blood pressure control, alongside the recently released May 2026 ACC Expert ConsensusDecision Pathway.What is the actual "goal BP" for a safe postpartum discharge? When should we initiate outpatient tight control, and how do we prevent these patients from bouncing back to the ED? Grab your coffee and pull up a chair.

Sleep, Glymphatic Detox, and the Hidden Heart Risks of Sleep Apnea: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin explains how sleep supports brain “housekeeping” via the glymphatic system, a glial-lymphatic waste-clearance network most active during sleep that moves cerebrospinal fluid through brain spaces to remove metabolites and toxic proteins such as amyloid beta, with sleep deprivation linked to amyloid accumulation. She notes other clearance pathways, including meningeal lymphatic vessels, whose impaired function is associated with neurodegenerative disease and brain injury. Reviews of human studies suggest sleep influences glymphatic outcomes, though results are inconsistent and methods vary. She emphasizes that poor sleep is associated with dementia risk, depressive symptoms, cardiovascular events, mortality, and impaired glucose metabolism, and highlights lifestyle strategies that may improve sleep. She warns that untreated obstructive sleep apnea accelerates cardiovascular aging via intermittent hypoxia and inflammation, raising blood pressure and cardiovascular event risk, while treatment (e.g., CPAP) may halt or reverse damage.

Is your baby fussy, clicking while nursing, struggling with tummy time, or just not quite seeming like themselves, and nobody can give you a straight answer about why?In this episode, I sit down with Michelle Emanuel, pediatric occupational therapist, board-certified lactation consultant, and one of the leading experts in tongue tie and oral function, and we take a deep dive into all things tongue-tie.Because tongue tie is not just about nursing pain or a string under the tongue. It is connected to how your baby breathes, how they move their body, why they are gassy and fussy, why they hate tummy time, and if it goes undetected, to speech challenges, crowded teeth, sleep issues, and emotional dysregulation years down the road....like, what?! But it's true!I have been in the birth world for 14 years and I walked away from this conversation looking at things completely differently. In fact I went and looked inside all of my teenagers' mouths when we finished recording and I am not even a little bit embarrassed about it.

When I was pregnant with my first baby, I was consumed with preparing for the needs of the little one, spending hours reading books and researching products. But what I didn't prepare for was the transformation within myself - a lesson that each pregnancy unveils a new version of who I am, shifting my identity, expectations, and even my understanding of motherhood. In our discussion, Nina Spears emphasized the importance of preparing for the mother just as much as the baby. We often forget that with each baby born, a new mother is also born, requiring just as much care and support. This journey pushes us to redefine what success looks like, challenge our predispositions, and ultimately build a support system that acknowledges and nurtures the endless, often invisible labor we undergo. If there's one thing I wish for expectant mothers to take away, it's this: you deserve to prepare and care for yourself just as much as you do for your child.
