What if the number of candles on your birthday cake isn't the most important measure of how you're aging?Two people can be the exact same chronological age and have remarkably different levels of strength, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, inflammation, energy, resilience, and physical capability. In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores the emerging science of biological versus chronological aging—and, more importantly, what you can actually do about it. Drawing from longevity research, his experience as a physician, and the principles behind his upcoming book The Biology of Becoming, Dr. Hemingway shares seven powerful signals that can influence the trajectory of how we age—including muscle, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, sleep, inflammation, nutrition, and something that may matter more than all the biomarkers: knowing what you're getting healthy for.You'll also hear a powerful client story, the simple reason a 10-minute walk after dinner can matter more than you think, why muscle may be your body's most important “retirement account,” and a practical 7-Day Becoming Younger Experiment you can begin immediately. Because longevity isn't really about trying to live forever. It's about building a body capable of continuing to say yes to the people, experiences, adventures, and purpose that make life worth living. Your birthday will keep changing. But how you age isn't entirely predetermined. Every choice is a signal—and your biology is always listening.**Free PDF: "5 Questions That Will CHANGE your life" Inside the PDF, we share how to partner with your biology instead of fighting it.

In this deeply moving episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Serese Marotta, Deputy CEO of Vaccinate Your Family, to discuss the critical importance of protecting our children as we head into respiratory illness seasons. Serese bravely opened up about her own personal tragedy, losing her healthy, five-year-old son, Joseph to H1N1 influence. Hearing Serese's story is a powerful reminder of why we do this work and why evidence-based education is so vital. We dove into real-world barriers families face, why even healthy children need protection against preventable illnesses, and how system-wide burnout in medicine can sometimes drive parents away from trusted doctors. We discuss: How physician burnout inadvertently fuels vaccine hesitancy The reality of flu severity in healthy children Vaccinate Your Family's mission to improve vaccine access and education Dr. Mona's personal experience with vaccine anxiety as a pediatrician and mom Common flu shot myths and safety misconceptions The role of social responsibility and herd immunity in protecting kids Connect with Serese Marotta on Instagram @vaccinateyourfamily and through vaccinateyourfamily.org Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores one of the central ideas behind his upcoming book, The Biology of Becoming: How to Partner With Your Biology and Become the Person You Were Created to Be. Drawing from current research and more than two decades of medicine, he explains why metabolism adapts, why muscle is so important for metabolic health, how something as simple as a walk after dinner can change your glucose response, and why sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, relationships, and purpose are all biological conversations happening inside you every day.You'll also hear real-world stories and walk away with simple actions you can begin today—without another extreme diet, complicated protocol, or pursuit of perfection. Because lasting health isn't built in dramatic moments. It's built through the signals you repeat. Change the signals, and you can begin changing your biology—and the person you're becoming.Remember, Your body isn't broken. It's responding. Every choice is a signal. And every day, you're becoming someone. **Free PDF: "5 Questions That Will CHANGE your life" Inside the PDF, we share how to partner with your biology instead of fighting it.

Tauranga's Mayor is pledging to ensure any warnings sent to the council around risk to life are escalated. A council commissioned review into the deadly January Mount Maunganui landslide has found the six deaths were preventable, given the decades of warnings. Mayor Mahé Drysdale told Mike Hosking his council will look at making sure these kinds of reports are actioned. He says there are risks across the city, and while they manage most of them well, this one wasn't. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Always consult your physician before making changes to your diet, exercise routine, or medications.TL;DR* The CDC's top 10 causes of death account for roughly 74% of all deaths in the US each year, and up to 80% of chronic disease is estimated to be driven by lifestyle factors — diet, movement, sleep, stress, and toxin exposure. * This episode goes cause by cause (heart disease, cancer, COVID/respiratory disease, accidents, stroke, Alzheimer's, diabetes, kidney disease, flu/pneumonia, and suicide) and lays out what the peer-reviewed research says about preventing, slowing, or reversing each one.* Ready to build your own plan? Book a free Metabolic Blueprint Session →The List, and the Number That Should Keep You Up at NightAccording to the CDC, ten conditions account for about 74% of all deaths in the United States every year:* Heart disease* Cancer* COVID-19 / chronic lower respiratory diseases* Accidents (unintentional injuries)* Stroke* Alzheimer's disease* Diabetes* Kidney disease* Influenza and pneumonia* SuicideHere's the part that doesn't get said enough: research estimates that up to 80% of chronic disease is driven by lifestyle factors — diet, movement, sleep, stress, and toxin exposure. Those aren't destinies. They're decisions, and decisions can change.A landmark paper in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that poor diet alone accounts for more deaths in the US than tobacco use. The fork may be more dangerous than the cigarette. And yet, most patients who end up on four to six medications were never once asked what they eat, how they sleep, or whether they move their bodies before those prescriptions were written. That's the difference between a sick care system and a healthcare system.Heart Disease and Stroke: The Most Reversible Disease We KnowHeart disease kills one American every 34 seconds and has held the #1 spot for over a century. But it's also one of the most reversible conditions in medicine.In 1990, Dr. Dean Ornish's landmark Lifestyle Heart Trial showed that intensive lifestyle changes — diet, exercise, stress management, and social support — could reverse coronary artery disease without drugs or surgery. Arterial plaques reduced. Blood flow improved. Chest pain decreased. A 2019 study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology confirmed it: a plant-predominant diet, regular aerobic exercise, not smoking, and a healthy weight reduced cardiovascular risk by over 80%.What that looks like in practice:* A Mediterranean or whole-food, plant-based diet rich in omega-3s and antioxidants (this isn't the only diet that works — it's the broadest evidence-backed baseline)* Zone 2 cardio (low-intensity aerobic work, three to five times a week — a brisk walk counts)* Managing chronic inflammation, the real driver of arterial plaque formation* Reducing refined sugar and seed oils, which damage the endothelial lining of the arteries* Prioritizing sleep, since poor sleep spikes cortisol and directly harms the heartStroke follows the same playbook: control blood pressure through diet, exercise, and stress reduction. The DASH diet in particular has been shown in multiple studies to lower blood pressure as effectively as medication in many patients.Cancer: 30–50% Preventable, and Possibly More Metabolic Than GeneticTo be clear, this isn't a claim about curing cancer — it's about how much prevention research is available and underused. The World Health Organization estimates that 30–50% of cancers are preventable. The American Institute for Cancer Research has identified lifestyle factors that dramatically reduce risk across multiple cancer types:* Diet. A 2022 meta-analysis in The Lancet linked poor dietary patterns — low fiber, low fruit/vegetable intake, high processed meat — to one in five cancer deaths globally.* Obesity. Excess weight is now the second-leading risk factor for cancer after smoking, because fat tissue is metabolically active and produces hormones like estrogen and inflammatory cytokines that fuel cancer growth.* Exercise. A 2019 study of over 1.4 million people found higher physical activity was associated with lower risk across 13 cancer types, including breast, colon, and endometrial cancer.* Fasting and metabolic health. Emerging research on intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating shows it can lower insulin-like growth factor, a key promoter of cancer cell proliferation.* Toxin reduction. Chronic low-grade exposure to pesticides, plastics (BPA, phthalates), and environmental pollutants has been linked to increased cancer risk. Choosing organic where possible, filtering water and air, and reducing plastic in cookware and storage all matter.There's also a deeper shift happening in how researchers understand cancer itself. It's long been treated primarily as a genetic disease, but the evidence is increasingly pointing toward cancer as a metabolic disease. Dr. Thomas Seyfried at Boston College has done groundbreaking work showing that cancer cells overwhelmingly rely on glucose and glutamine fermentation for energy — which is why a ketogenic or low-glycemic approach may help starve cancer cells while protecting healthy ones. The research is still evolving, but it's compelling.Think of your body like a garden. You can water it, enrich the soil, and pull the weeds — or you can dump sugar and chemicals on it and wonder why nothing grows right. Disease doesn't happen to you. It grows in an environment you create, consciously or not. The good news: you can change that environment starting today.Alzheimer's: “Type 3 Diabetes”Alzheimer's is rising, and it's terrifying to watch someone go through it. But emerging science shows it has a strong lifestyle and metabolic component — researchers now sometimes call it “type 3 diabetes” because of the profound link between insulin resistance and neurodegeneration.Dr. Dale Bredesen's ReCODE Protocol, published in the Journal of Aging, showed that a multimodal lifestyle intervention — diet, exercise, sleep optimization, hormone balancing, and stress reduction — reversed early cognitive decline in the majority of patients treated. In his 2014 case series, 9 of 10 patients with early Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment showed measurable improvement, with several returning to work.Key strategies from the research:* Sleep is non-negotiable. The brain's glymphatic (waste clearance) system activates primarily during sleep, flushing out amyloid beta plaque. Poor sleep means plaque buildup.* Exercise. A 2020 study showed aerobic exercise increases BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) — essentially fertilizer for neurons — and reduces dementia risk by up to 35%.* Mediterranean-MIND diet. Shown to slow cognitive aging by an estimated 7.5 years in adherent individuals.* Blood sugar management. Insulin resistance in the brain disrupts its ability to use glucose for energy, effectively starving neurons.* Social connection. Harvard's 80-year longitudinal study found relationship quality was the single strongest predictor of cognitive health and longevity in old age.Type 2 Diabetes and Kidney Disease: One Disease Driving AnotherOver 37 million Americans have type 2 diabetes, and another 96 million are pre-diabetic. Here's the part that surprises people: type 2 diabetes is reversible in the majority of cases, and this isn't controversial — the science is overwhelming.The 2019 DiRECT trial, published in The Lancet, found that nearly half of type 2 diabetics achieved full remission through an intensive dietary intervention alone, with no medication. Other studies using low-carbohydrate and very-low-calorie diets have replicated these results consistently.Diabetic nephropathy — kidney damage from chronically high blood sugar — is the leading cause of kidney failure in the US. Control the upstream issue (blood sugar and metabolic dysfunction) and you protect the downstream organ.The diabetes reversal framework from the research:* Dramatically reduce refined carbohydrates and added sugars to blunt insulin spikes and reduce fat storage in the liver and pancreas* Practice time-restricted eating or intermittent fasting to improve insulin sensitivity* Add resistance training — muscle is your biggest glucose sink, so more muscle means better blood sugar control* Reduce visceral fat (the fat around and inside your organs), a key driver of insulin resistance and inflammationIf this list feels like a lot, that's fair. But it's not about blame — it's about empowerment. You have more control over your health outcomes than the medical system has typically told you.Respiratory Disease, Flu, and PneumoniaChronic lower respiratory diseases like COPD and emphysema are largely driven by smoking and air quality. Quitting smoking remains the single most impactful intervention here, full stop.For flu and pneumonia risk, immune resilience matters: vitamin D optimization, zinc and elderberry, and gut microbiome health (roughly 70% of your immune system lives in your gut). Even mild sleep deprivation has been shown to quadruple susceptibility to viral infection.Suicide and Mental HealthThis is the cause of death nobody wants to talk about, but it's in the top 10 — and it's the leading cause of death for men under 50, and the second-leading cause of death for people ages 10–34.While this is complex and deeply personal, research points to several lifestyle levers:* Exercise functions as an effective antidepressant, largely through endorphin release* The gut-brain axis matters more than most people realize — over 75% of the body's serotonin is produced in the gut, so gut health directly shapes brain chemistry* Social connection and purpose. Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, written while he was in a Nazi concentration camp, captured this: meaning and connection to purpose are essential for survival, and perspective shapes both physiology and outcome* Reducing alcohol, a central nervous system depressant that worsens anxiety and depression despite short-term reliefIf you or someone you love is struggling, crisis hotlines are available 24/7. There's often a reason it's happening, and there's often a way through it.The Common ThreadAcross every single one of these conditions — heart disease, stroke, cancer, Alzheimer's, diabetes, kidney disease, respiratory disease, immune function, mental health — the same five levers keep showing up: diet, exercise, sleep, toxin reduction, and blood sugar balance.Your daily habits are either building disease or building resilience. Every meal, every walk, every night of good sleep compounds — just like interest in a bank account.This Week's Action Plan* Do a food audit. For the next three days, write down everything you eat. No judgment, just awareness — you can't change what you can't see.* Walk 30 minutes a day. It lowers blood pressure, improves insulin sensitivity, boosts BDNF, and reduces cortisol. Simple, not easy — do it anyway.* Optimize your sleep. Consistent bedtime, dark room, cool temperature, no screens.* Get your labs done. Know your fasting glucose, A1C, CRP, vitamin D, triglycerides, and LDL — these are your early warning systems.* Address one stress source this week. A conversation you need to have, a boundary you need to set, or ten minutes of breathwork. Chronic stress is silently killing you — take action on it.Ready for a Real Plan?If you're ready to take your health seriously and want a clear roadmap instead of guesswork, book a Metabolic Blueprint Session.

https://jo.my/fuzawhTrailer Inspection and Dock SafetyA trailer can look solid from the dock and still hide a serious failure underneath. One weak floorboard, damaged support, or missed restraint can turn a normal loading task into a collapse.That's why trailer inspection is more than a glance. It protects drivers, forklift operators, dock workers, equipment, and every person nearby. Be sure to slow the job down long enough to spot danger before the trailer moves, drops, shifts, or fails.Here are a few tips to assist you with trailer inspection and safety:Check the trailer floor before entry. Look for cracks, sagging boards, water damage, holes, loose panels, and signs of rot. Watch for soft spots near the rear doors and along forklift travel paths. If the floor flexes, feels weak, or looks damaged, stop. Keep people and equipment out until the trailer is cleared.Inspect the trailer structure. Check the walls, roof, frame, landing gear, and rear impact guard. Look for bent metal, broken welds, major rust, or damage from a previous impact. A trailer may hold its shape while empty but fail under a loaded forklift.Control nose-diving. A trailer can tip forward when too much weight moves into the nose without proper support. Confirm the tractor is connected or approved trailer stands are in place. Load weight evenly and follow the facility's loading plan.Prevent tip-over and trailer movement. Verify the trailer is level, stable, and properly positioned at the dock. Check the dock plate or leveler before use. Never assume the trailer will stay still because it looks secure.Use wheel chocks with automatic restraints. Automatic restraints can fail, miss the rear impact guard, or be released by mistake. Wheel chocks add another layer of protection. Confirm they are placed correctly before loading begins.As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.Trailer failures rarely give a polite warning. They happen fast. Loud. Violent. Preventable.The safest crews don't trust appearances. They verify the floor. They verify the structure. They verify the restraint. Then they verify it again before the first forklift crosses the dock plate.That extra minute can prevent a crushed worker, a dropped forklift, a damaged load, or a trailer on its nose. Build the habit now. Make inspection part of every trailer, every dock, every shift.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips.

Cambridge cancer geneticist Dr. Moritz Przybilla of the Wellcome Sanger Institute joins the podcast to unpack the hidden science of somatic evolution — how our clinically healthy tissues quietly accumulate mutations, and even cancer-driver clones, as a normal part of ageing. Using ultra-accurate single-molecule DNA sequencing, his work reads this "clonal landscape" cell by cell — from the lasting genomic scars tobacco leaves in the lung to non-invasive ways of measuring cancer risk long before a tumour appears. Along the way, he offers a blunt, evidence-based take on popular biohacking trends like fasting-mimicking diets and sulforaphane, and why the wellness industry so often misreads (or overstates) clinical-trial evidence. Finally, Dr. Przybilla lays out the lifestyle factors that genuinely move the needle — tobacco, chronic infections, alcohol, obesity and UV exposure — and makes the case for shifting from blanket fear to proactive, risk-stratified early detection.-MORE FROM MORITZ:https://www.instagram.com/dr.moritzprzy/ (Instagram)https://www.linkedin.com/in/moritz-jakob-przybilla/ (LinkedIn)https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.moritzprzy (TikTok)https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uUN6YGnMUWqY7HZZBZKTbXNPy-V8MkmB/view?usp=drive_link (German Prevention Checklisthttps://drive.google.com/file/d/15xKrhSIQHxjvhTaHOcsgDnm3wfnR_D9U/view?usp=drive_link (German Genetics Infosheet)-MY BOOK IS NOW OUT AND AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW:https://axelschura.com/maybe-MY WEBSITE:https://axelschura.com/ -BOOK YOUR FREE CALL WITH US NOW AND JOIN AXEL SCHURA ACADEMY (Mention "PODCAST" when signing up to get your bonuses!):https://calendly.com/d/cnnv-vzs-wbg/evergreen-blueprint-axel-schura-academy-JOIN OUR NEXT FIRE WITHIN RETREAT AND MENTION "PODCAST" WHEN SIGNING UP TO GET A SPECIAL DEAL:https://calendly.com/d/cyfh-x92-gb4/axel-schura-retreat-2026-COACHING AND COMMUNITY:× 30 days FREE membership - change your life with my visualisation and meditation practices (new customers only):https://axelschura.com/membership/× Free Webinar on easily scaling your Business to 10.000$ per Month:https://event.webinarjam.com/4ywv5/register/1ypn4cz-SOCIALS:× Podcast Instagram: https://instagram.com/theaxelschurashow× My Instagram: https://instagram.com/axelschura× You can find me and my content on all social media platforms, just follow this Linktree: https://linktr.ee/axelschura-SOURCES MENTIONED:1 (Life expectancy decline in the US): https://www.unc.edu/discover/u-s-life-expectancy-drop-caused-by-more-than-pandemic/2 (Burkitt leukemia vs. Burkitt lymphoma): ashpublications.org/blood/article/104/10/3009/18728/Adult-Burkitt-leukemia-and-lymphoma3 (Uv protection from car windows): https://healthcare.utah.edu/healthfeed/2025/05/car-windows-wont-protect-you-uv-rays4 (Cosmic radiation on flights): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9723364/5 (Germany vs. UK weather): https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/uk/london/climate & https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/germany/berlin/climate-00:00 Intro: The main 4 lifestyle factors causing cancer01:00 Why early cancer detection changes everything03:30 What made Moritz become a cancer researcher08:10 Broccoli sprouts, sulforaphane & cancer prevention15:20 The biggest preventable causes of cancer30:40 Why most people change only after a health scare40:30 Will AI ever cure cancer?56:20 Sunscreen, UV exposure & skincare myths1:12:00 The future of cancer screening
Is the "Make America Healthy Again" movement beginning to unravel? Jonathan Howard, MD, and Wendy Orent examine a wave of recent public health stories that they argue reveal growing dysfunction within the Department of Health and Human Services under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. From staffing shortages and agency leadership vacancies to vaccine policy changes and expanding infectious disease outbreaks, they discuss what they believe are the real-world consequences of current federal health leadership. The conversation also explores new measles outbreaks, cyclospora foodborne illness, influenza vaccine effectiveness, updated COVID vaccine research, child labor debates, NIH funding, scientific independence, and the continuing influence of prominent pandemic-era commentators. Whether you agree or disagree, this episode tackles some of the most consequential public health debates unfolding today. In This Episode The latest reporting on RFK Jr.'s leadership at HHS Why MAHA and MAGA may be increasingly at odds The growing measles outbreaks across the United States Cyclospora infections and concerns over weakened food safety oversight New research on influenza vaccine effectiveness in preventing pediatric deaths Updated COVID vaccine effectiveness data against hospitalization and severe illness The role of herd immunity and population immunity in today's COVID landscape The future of CDC leadership and federal public health agencies NIH funding, political oversight, and concerns about scientific independence Scott Atlas and calls to abolish the NIH Continued debate over COVID lockdowns and pandemic policy David Zweig, Jeffrey Tucker, Brownstone Institute, and education debates Child labor laws and their intersection with pandemic-era rhetoric Why physician-scientists continue debating the legacy of COVID policy Scientific misinformation and public trust Current public health threats beyond COVID Key Topics Discussed RFK Jr. Department of Health and Human Services MAHA MAGA Measles resurgence Cyclospora outbreak Vaccine effectiveness Influenza vaccination COVID-19 boosters CDC leadership NIH funding Scientific research Public health policy Pandemic response School closures Medical misinformation Health policy Memorable Discussion Points "Public health leadership isn't judged by rhetoric—it's judged by outcomes." "Preventable diseases don't care about political ideology." "Science requires evidence, not personalities." Resources Mentioned Recent New York Times reporting on HHS leadership JAMA studies on COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness CIDRAP influenza vaccine research Scientific American reporting on NIH funding changes Washington Post reporting on federal science policy About We Want Them Infected We Want Them Infected examines public health, infectious disease, vaccine policy, misinformation, and science through evidence-based discussion featuring neurologist Dr. Jonathan Howard and science journalist Wendy Orent.

Most people think they're just getting older. The afternoon crashes. The stubborn belly fat. The aching joints. Brain fog. Poor sleep. Low energy. Rising cholesterol. Increasing blood pressure.But what if these aren't simply signs of aging at all?In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explains why insulin resistance and poor metabolic health has quietly become one of the biggest health challenges of our time—affecting an estimated 88–93% of American adults who are not metabolically healthy—and why it often develops years before diabetes is ever diagnosed. More importantly, you'll learn why insulin resistance is not a life sentence. It's a signal. And when you begin partnering with your body instead of fighting against it, remarkable healing can occur.Have a Listen and Share with a Friend!**Free PDF: "How to Speed up your Metabolism in 7 Easy Steps."

https://jo.my/knjtnyBattery Charging Station SafetyThis topic seems to come up a lot in our rotation. Why? It's important to know, retain, and remind about!Battery charging stations can look quiet.That's what makes them dangerous.You don't always hear the hazard coming. You don't always see it building. A battery charging area can create explosive gases, expose workers to acid, and turn a normal shift into an emergency in seconds. Fast. Serious. And something we're trying to repeat as much as possible - it's PREVENTABLE!When you're being proactive in implementing and maintaining 5S methods, Safety Culture demands that you pay attention to quiet hazards. It teaches people to respect the areas that don't flash, bang, or scream for attention until something has already gone wrong. Battery charging stations deserve that respect every single day.Here are a few tips to assist you with Battery Charging Station Safety:Keep the air moving. Lead-acid batteries can release hydrogen gas during charging. That gas can build up if the area lacks proper ventilation. Check that vents, fans, and airflow paths stay open and working.Keep sparks and flames away. Charging areas should stay free of smoking, open flames, hot work, and spark-producing tools unless approved safety steps are in place. Hydrogen gas and ignition sources don't need a second invitation.Wear the right PPE. Workers who handle battery acid, cables, caps, and connectors should use the required face protection, eye protection, gloves, aprons, and other protective gear. Acid does not care how experienced you are.Inspect connectors before use. Damaged cables, cracked plugs, loose connections, and exposed conductors create risk. Report problems before charging begins. Don't “make it work.” Make it safe.Keep eyewash access clear and ready. Emergency eyewash stations must stay easy to reach. No pallets. No carts. No stored equipment in the way. Test and maintain them in accordance with your facility's safety guidelines.As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.Battery charging safety isn't about slowing the crew down. It's about making sure everyone finishes the shift with their vision, hands, lungs, and life intact.The best facilities don't wait for a burn, a blast, or a close call to take this area seriously. They build habits before the emergency. They train people before the panic. They check the equipment before the failure.That's how safety becomes real.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips.

Are your blood markers telling you and your doctor the whole story? Chronic inflammation is the silent driver behind nearly every major disease, and the good news is that your lifestyle choices decide the outcome. Don't wait for a life altering diagnosis to take action.In this episode of Salad With a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck breaks down how blood markers move, how preventable diseases develop, and why epigenetics means your genes are not your fate. If you have ever felt like your health was out of your hands, this episode will change the way you think about your daily choices.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why chronic inflammation is considered the root cause of virtually every major illness and how oxidative stress accelerates disease progression in the body.✅ How epigenetics reveals that your lifestyle choices, not just your genetics, impact disease-related genes.✅ What specific blood markers to track for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, liver disease, and kidney disease, and realistic timelines for improving them.✅ How to advocate for yourself in a medical system still rooted in a prescription-first approach, and how to ask your doctor for the time and space to make disease prevention changes first.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into real-life wellness and weight loss, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Preventable diseases don't have to be your story and what blood markers can and cannot tell you05:55 The most common diseases: heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer and how they are linked to lifestyle choices06:46 Epigenetics explained: how your daily habits turn disease risk genes up or down17:21 Lifestyle choices, from gut health to the brain to the endocrine system, impact every organ system20:10 Oxidative stress and free radicals explained: the science behind chronic disease25:01 Lifestyle choices that support overall health rather than disease and healthcare 3.0, being your own advocate32:12 Discussion of food with no labels; vegetables, fruit and lean meat36:19 Movement as disease prevention: why sitting all day quietly drives chronic illness more than we realize41:06 Longevity, community, connection, sleep, and stress management as overlooked pillars of health42:05 Blood marker timelines: how fast insulin, A1C, cholesterol, and blood pressure respond to lifestyle changesKEY TAKEAWAYS:
What if one of the most important proteins for healthy aging is also one of the most overlooked? Most people think collagen is simply a beauty supplement for smoother skin and fewer wrinkles. But collagen is actually the structural foundation of your entire body--skin, joints, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, bones, and connective tissues. The reality is that collagen production begins declining as early as your twenties, and that decline may contribute to many of the symptoms people mistakenly accept as "normal aging."In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway dives into the science of collagen, what the latest research says about its benefits for skin, hair, nails, joints, cartilage, and bone health, and how to maximize its effectiveness with key nutrients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, and chondroitin. You'll learn practical strategies to support healthy collagen production, discover who benefits most from supplementation, and hear real-world examples of how collagen can be part of a comprehensive healthy aging and longevity plan.

Reposting my conversation with Drew from The Superhuman Blueprint Podcast. We talked about a subject very close to my heart: the quiet biology of aging — the changes that begin long before most of us feel them or see them clearly. Anti-aging is not about pretending time is not passing. It is about refusing to wait for decline before we intervene. In this conversation, we discuss healthspan versus lifespan, beautyspan, hormones, GLP-1s, peptides, menopause, perimenopause, metabolic changes, and why aging should be understood as a process that can be managed proactively. To me, anti-aging medicine is not vanity. It is strategy. It is about preserving health, energy, vitality, identity, and the way we experience ourselves through time. Thank you to Drew and The Superhuman Blueprint Podcast for creating space for this important conversation. Topics discussed include: Healthspan versus lifespan Why aging often begins quietly Hormones, menopause, and metabolic changes GLP-1s, peptides, and modern anti-aging medicine Beautyspan and the perception of self Why prevention matters before decline becomes obvious Original episode courtesy of The Superhuman Blueprint Podcast.

https://jo.my/pfbmjeHeat Illness PreventionSweat isn't just a sign of hard work. Sometimes, it is a warning. When the summer sun hits a facility's roof, the indoor temperature skyrockets. I have seen strong, seasoned workers collapse because they ignored the thermometer. A true culture of care means we look out for the person standing next to us. We do not wait for someone to drop before we take action. Heat is an invisible hazard. Respect it.New hires are at the highest risk. Their bodies simply are not ready for the intense environment.

https://jo.my/jld2xuExit Routes, Drills, and Emergency LightingEmergencies don't send calendar invites.A fire won't wait until everyone remembers the exit route. A severe storm won't pause while someone checks the location of the assembly point. Power can drop. Alarms can sound. People can panic. Fast. Dangerous. Preventable.That's why emergency preparedness matters during National Safety Month. It's not about checking a box. It's about making sure every person in the facility knows where to go, what to do, and how to help others move safely when seconds matter.A strong Safety Culture doesn't wait for an emergency to expose weak spots. It finds them early. It trains them. It fixes them before they cause someone to get hurt.Here are a few tips to assist you with National Safety Month, Week 1, Emergency Preparedness:Review exit routes before they're needed. Walk the facility and confirm that exit paths are clear, marked, and easy to follow. Don't assume everyone knows the way out. New employees, visitors, contractors, and temporary workers may need extra direction.Confirm assembly point locations. Make sure each crew member knows where to report after leaving the facility. The assembly point should be far enough from danger, easy to find, and clear of traffic or emergency response areas.Run “No-Notice” fire and weather drills. Planned drills help, but surprise drills show what people really know. Watch how the crew responds. Look for confusion, blocked paths, missed headcounts, and slow reactions.Check emergency lighting. If the power goes out, emergency lights become the guide rope. Test them on a regular schedule. Replace weak batteries, damaged units, and lights that don't cover key walkways, stairs, exits, or work areas.Use every drill as a teaching moment. Don't shame people for mistakes. Fix the gaps. Talk through what happened. Update procedures when needed. A drill that reveals a problem is doing its job.As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.Emergency preparedness works best before the smoke, sirens, wind, or darkness shows up. That's the whole point. You train on a normal day, so people can react on the worst day.This week, look at your facility with fresh eyes. Find the blocked exit. Check the weak light. Ask the employee who looks unsure. Then fix what needs fixing. Safety isn't paperwork. It's people going home because someone cared enough to prepare.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE!
In this episode of Stanford Medcast, Dr. Geoffrey Tabin discusses the global burden of avoidable blindness and the systems-level barriers that continue to limit access to high-quality eye care worldwide. Drawing on decades of experience building scalable eye care programs in Nepal and Sub-Saharan Africa, Dr. Tabin explores how cost, workforce design, infrastructure, mentorship, and innovation shape the delivery of ophthalmologic care in low-resource settings. The conversation also examines lessons applicable to high-resource healthcare systems, including opportunities to rethink efficiency, sustainability, and equitable access to care. This activity is designed for clinicians and healthcare professionals interested in global health, healthcare delivery, systems innovation, and ophthalmology.

Grandparents for Vaccines is a nationwide nonprofit that aims to educate the current generation of parents about vaccine-preventable diseases. Launched in September 2025, the group has produced videos of grandparents describing what it was like to endure or witness their friends, classmates and relatives battle illnesses such as polio, measles and pertussis before vaccines for them existed. The group’s launch comes amid rising vaccine skepticism fueled by misinformation about the safety and efficacy of vaccines. A recent poll by the Kaiser Family Foundation and The Washington Post showed that 1 in 6 parents in the US have delayed or skipped vaccines for their children. Teri Mills is a founding member of Grandparents for Vaccines and a retired public health nurse who was named "Oregon Nurse of the Year" in 2019 by the Oregon Nurse Foundation. We listen back to a conversation we first aired on Nov. 19, 2025 with Mills and Sheri Schouten, a retired public health nurse and former Oregon state lawmaker, to hear their work with Grandparents for Vaccines.
