New cholesterol guidelines are changing how doctors evaluate cardiovascular risk—and could lead to more people being prescribed cholesterol-lowering medications as a preventive measure.In this edition of The Weekly Wellness Report, George examines what has changed, including lower LDL targets, earlier intervention and the growing emphasis on statins and other medications before a heart attack or stroke occurs.But are medications the entire answer? George also explores the important role of lifestyle medicine—including nutrition, exercise, weight management, sleep and other daily habits—in controlling cholesterol and improving overall cardiovascular health.Should prevention begin with a prescription, lifestyle changes or a combination of both? This report breaks down what the new guidelines could mean for you and why informed conversations with your healthcare provider matter.*This content is for informational and educational purposes only.

Hey Heal Squad! Nobody Wants This star Jackie Tohn is her, and you guys…there is a STORY behind why it took us this long to finally have this conversation! Let's just say, the first time Jackie came to Heal Squad, she threw her back out so badly on the way to the studio that by the time she arrived, she couldn't even get out of her car and was hysterically crying in pain. So instead of recording the episode, Maria and the Heal Squad jumped into action and focused on getting Jackie some relief. Jackie shares what happened next, how quickly things started to shift, and why she still jokes that the Heal Squad are basically “witches.” But that's not the total story! Jackie tells us about her dad's unexpected cancer diagnosis which led her to do genetic testing, and ultimately led her to the discovery that she carried a BRCA1 mutation. She takes us inside the shock of learning she was at significantly increased risk for breast and ovarian cancer, the anxiety and information overload that followed, and the huge decision to undergo a preventive double mastectomy. We also get into how overwhelming it can be when different doctors give you completely different advice, why Jackie sought multiple opinions and built an entire medical team, and the women who stepped up to help her navigate a world she knew nothing about. This episode is funny, emotional, and such an important reminder that sometimes one piece of information about your family health history can change EVERYTHING. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Sometimes your health has to become more important than showing up. Jackie arrived at Heal Squad in so much back pain she still wanted to push through and record, until Maria stopped the interview and made getting her help the priority. Your family's health history could reveal something about your own. Jackie had no idea BRCA1 was part of her story until her dad's unexpected cancer diagnosis ultimately led her to genetic testing. One doctor's opinion doesn't have to be the end of the conversation. After learning she was BRCA1-positive, Jackie sought multiple opinions and learned firsthand how differently doctors can approach the same diagnosis and preventive surgery options HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host Medjet: medjet.com GUEST RESOURCES: Follow Jackie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jackietohn/ Watch Nobody Wants This: https://www.netflix.com/title/81591296 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.In this Mind Moments episode, Jennifer Fokas, MD, and Minali Nigam, MD, neurologists at Northwestern Medicine with specialized training in headache medicine, join the podcast to discuss current challenges and evolving strategies in the management of cluster headache. They highlighted the substantial burden of disease, particularly among patients with chronic cluster headache, and the diagnostic difficulties that arise from overlap with migraine features. They emphasized the importance of recognizing cranial autonomic symptoms as key distinguishing features, along with typical attack duration and circadian or seasonal patterns. The conversation also covered practical approaches to acute and preventive treatment, including high-flow oxygen via non-rebreather mask, subcutaneous sumatriptan, bridge therapies, and preventive options such as high-dose verapamil and, in selected cases, lithium. The physicians also review emerging and adjunctive options while noting limitations in evidence, indications, and access. They concluded by underscoring the need for clinician preparedness and tailored therapy to enable more assertive and appropriate management of cluster headache. Looking for more Headache and Migraine discussion?

What if getting older didn't automatically mean getting weaker?On this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed sits down with Dr. Mark Sherwood, known as The Real Longevity Doctor™ and Biohackologist™, for a direct conversation about longevity, strength, chronic disease, hormones, nutrition, sleep, and what it really takes to take ownership of your health.A former SWAT team leader turned naturopathic doctor, Dr. Sherwood brings a unique combination of discipline, clinical experience, and straight-to-the-point thinking to the conversation. He challenges the idea that declining health should simply be accepted as part of aging and encourages people to look deeper at the habits, systems, and choices shaping their long-term health.They discuss why so many people wait until something goes wrong before taking their health seriously, the growing conversation around biohacking, the importance of metabolic and hormonal health, and why longevity should be about more than simply adding years to your life.Dr. Sherwood also shares his perspective on building physical, mental, and spiritual resilience, creating sustainable change, and developing a body capable of supporting the mission and life you want to live.How much of the way we age is truly inevitable, and how much can we influence by the way we live today?Learn more about Dr. Mark Sherwood at DrMarkSherwood.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time. 

For over a century, organisations have relied on a rigid, factory-inspired model of how we think. We assume that every worker operates on a standard cognitive rhythm, thriving under the same conditions of open-plan offices, back-to-back meetings, and eight-hour shifts. These organizational habits were born of convenience, not science. We are currently designing our entire professional lives around assumptions that lack any grounding in neuroscience. The reality is that the brain is the most complex system known to humanity, holding roughly 86 billion neurons and trillions of neural connections. While leaders and managers continue to force employees into uniform boxes, the rapid rise of Artificial Intelligence is quietly shifting the cognitive landscape. We are operating in a gap where the decision-makers behind our work structures often possess little understanding of the cognitive biology they govern.Ofer, as a technologist who has spent a decade applying neurofeedback to the human mind, recognises that treating the brain like a computer is a fundamental error. If we want people to flourish rather than just perform, we must move away from the obsession with standardisation and start respecting the individual architecture of the human mind and the fact that this can look different in different people.We are currently also seeing a decline in global attention spans. The average human attention window online is now just 2.8 seconds. When you land on a page, you have less time to capture a user's attention than a goldfish.Ofer developed neurofeedback technology to bridge the gap between clinical needs and personal development. By using EEG sensors to track brain wave activity, individuals can receive real-time, visual, and auditory feedback on their focus levels. In practice, this looks like a game where the user serves as the pilot of a digital vehicle, controlling its movement through focus alone. When the user becomes distracted, the feedback loop prompts them to return to a state of engagement.This process steps outside the traditional box of corporate and educational uniformity. By treating attention as a skill to be trained rather than a fixed personality trait, we move toward a model of individual development. This is particularly relevant for those diagnosed with ADHD, as it offers a way to strengthen prefrontal cortex activity—the area often associated with sustained focus. The effectiveness of this method stems from its millisecond-long feedback loop, which is far more potent than the annual performance reviews we rely on in traditional management.By providing a way to measure and improve cognitive state, this technology empowers users to take ownership of their own mental performance. It demonstrates that we are not locked into our current cognitive limitations. With the right tools, we can train our attention mechanisms to handle the complexities of a distracted, high-tech world, ultimately fostering a higher degree of agency and self-mastery in our work lives.As AI integrates further into our workflows, the value of the human “edge”—our ability to think critically, connect dots, and navigate ambiguity—will only increase. Leaders should be wary of over-automating processes that require human nuance. The goal should be to use machines to handle the rote tasks so humans can flourish in roles that require empathy, creativity, and high-level judgment.The strategy for the future isn't more software or faster tools, it's about building “flexible structures” that accommodate different thinking styles. We must hold our management theories with humility and pivot from a culture of constant, fragmented attention to one that values deliberate, focused, and human-centric interaction. Whether through neurofeedback, better meeting design, or simply setting our phones aside to listen to one another, small changes can yield significant cognitive benefits. The path toward organisational health requires us to accept that our differences are not problems to be solved, but assets to be utilized. As we look ahead, let us commit to building environments that nourish the brain rather than exhausting it.Are your current team rituals helping your people think, or are they just keeping them busy? It's time to move from managing output to supporting human flourishing.The main insights you'll get from this episode are : The human brain is the most complex system known in the universe - we don't know how a neuron works and neither do we understand consciousness.It functions in a totally different way from a silicon-based computer; no computer can truly understand, only process large-scale mathematics/data.Unlike AI, the human brain has taken millennia to evolve and only consumes 20W of energy – this evolution produces an optimised system.Is AI conscious? No computer is conscious, and intelligence requires understanding, which we also do not fully comprehend.We can learn more easily than we can unlearn: learning is repetition to create new neural pathways.The brain-computer interface based on electromagnetic brainwave frequencies produces neurofeedback, i.e. feedback in real time to teach something new.Brain training for the third age is aimed at retaining cognitive performance.Companies are built by people and thrive on the connections between them therefore it is advisable to adapt rules to different people/brains.AI produces amazing results in certain (scientific) fields but has a very negative impact on the population at large who have no need to think or learn.Education systems are not evolving and still based on the ‘banking' system whereby the teacher deposits information into students' mind.Project-based learning is proven to be more effective - it introduces the element of experience and is interesting.The human hippocampus is shrinking, which is a very scary prospect for the future and those who will be the leaders.The western world is organised around efficiency, which does not equate to human flourishing.Making neurofeedback accessible, affordable, and feasible is a gamechanger to help people increase their attention.Attention is a competitive advantage these days and hijacking it is very destructive, with fragmented attention often described as ‘busy'.Preventive measures include paying attention to our lack of attention, practicing more and managing our time correctly - the brain is not a multitasker by design.Find out more about Ofer and his work here :https://excellent-brain.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/oferlidsky/For more information on this episode please visit www.transformforvalue.com/podcastTo carry on developing your leadership and building a relevant & high performing team, connect with me here : https://calendly.com/transformforvalue/connect

Starting hormone replacement therapy can feel both exciting and overwhelming. What should you expect? How do you find the right provider? Which delivery method is best? And how long does it take before you actually start feeling better? In this episode of Perimenopause Simplified, Claudia Petrilli walks you through what the HRT journey can look like, from finding a hormone-savvy provider to understanding different delivery methods and the importance of starting low and going slow. Claudia discusses why simply finding someone who can prescribe HRT isn't always enough, what questions to ask when interviewing a provider, and why finding the right dose and combination of hormones can take some patience and fine-tuning. She also breaks down progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and several different delivery options, including patches, creams, pills, troches, injections, and pellets. Plus, she shares some of her own experiences with HRT, including the changes she noticed when starting testosterone and the difference estrogen made for her period-related body aches. If you're considering HRT or have already started and aren't sure what to expect, this episode will help you better understand the process and feel more prepared to advocate for yourself. In this episode, we covered: How to find an HRT provider Different deliveries of hormone replacement therapy Why hormone injections and pellets are not recommended Side effects of hormone replacement therapy Progesterone hormone replacement therapy Estrogen hormone replacement therapy Testosterone & DHEA hormone replacement therapy   Sources: Women's International Pharmacy Institute of Bioidentical Medicine (IOBIM)-trained providers The Academy for Preventive and Innovative Medicine (Worldlink Medical) Institute for Functional Medicine Carol Petersen, RPh, CNP Dr. Phyllis Bronson   _______________________________________________________________________________ To learn about hormone therapy, grab Claudia's FREE resource: 3-Day HRT Crash Course.

In this HealthspanMD AMA episode, Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, answers practical questions about preventive cardiology and personalized health. The conversation covers how different cardiovascular imaging tests are used, when statins and alternative cholesterol medications may make sense, plant sterol absorption, hormone replacement therapy, the role of ChatGPT and artificial intelligence in healthcare, and how GLP 1 medications may affect cardiovascular and metabolic health. Throughout the discussion, Dr. Hurst explains why the right strategy depends on understanding an individual's specific risks rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, is a cardiologist focused on preventive care and personalized cardiovascular risk reduction. Drawing on his clinical experience, including his previous work at Mayo Clinic, he approaches medications, diagnostics, nutrition, and lifestyle interventions as tools that should be selected according to the individual patient's risks, goals, preferences, and desired outcomes. At HealthspanMD, that philosophy extends beyond cardiovascular disease to a collaborative approach focused on improving long-term healthspan.

In this VETgirl veterinary continuing education podcast,  Dr. Mark Cousins debunks the “indoor cat safety” myth. Indoor felines face silent parasite risks: hitchhiking fleas, shoe-borne roundworm eggs, and mosquitoes carrying fatal heartworms. Because cats lack approved heartworm treatments, year-round preventive care is vital. Vets must educate hesitant owners, reframing protection as a baseline of indoor feline wellness.Sponsored By: Boehringer Ingelheim

Guest: Noel Bairey Merz, MD Cardiovascular risk in women can emerge well before older age, but traditional approaches to risk assessment may overlook sex-specific factors in patients under 65. Dr. Noel Bairey Merz joins us to share how tools such as the PREVENT score and coronary artery calcium scoring, along with obstetric history and female-dominant conditions, can help us identify elevated risk earlier. Dr. Bairey Merz is the Director of the Barbra Streisand Women's Health Center, the Linda Joy Pollin Women's Heart Health Program, and the Preventive and Rehabilitative Cardiac Center at the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute in Beverly Hills, California. She also spoke about this topic at the 2026 European Society of Cardiology Congress.

Erectile dysfunction is usually thought of as a sexual-health issue. But could it also offer an early clue about an upcoming heart attack? In this episode of Live Well with Michelle, Michelle Martin speaks with Dr Pinakin V Parekh, Founder and Medical Director of Trident Heart Centre and Senior Consultant in Preventive, General and Interventional Cardiology, about the important connection between erectile dysfunction and cardiovascular health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Karen Litzy sits down with Jennifer Burnham Grubbs, founder of Ionava, to unpack why traditional health insurance often penalizes healthy people instead of rewarding them. Jennifer draws on 21 years in the insurance industry to explain what she saw, why she built a new financial category, and how Ionava is designed to reward health-conscious behavior with greater flexibility and less friction. We discuss why healthy people often get poor value from insurance, how Ionava differs from HSAs, FSAs, and health sharing ministries, and how its wallet-based model is meant to make health financial preparedness more practical.   Key topics   Jennifer explains why she built Ionava after two decades as an insurance broker and consultant, including seeing denied coverage, surprise billing, and confusing utilization patterns firsthand. The episode explores the idea that healthy people often subsidize the system without getting a meaningful return, even when they follow preventive care recommendations. Karen and Jennifer compare traditional insurance with a "good driver discount" model, highlighting how insurance rarely rewards healthier behavior. Jennifer explains why Ionava is not health insurance or an HSA, but a new financial category built around health, financial preparedness, and wellness spending. The conversation covers how Ionava's wallet works, including how users can spend on qualifying health and wellness expenses, from gym memberships to supplements and cosmetic wellness categories. Jennifer contrasts Ionava with HSAs and FSAs, emphasizing that Ionava is funded through the subscription and is designed to roll over rather than expire. They also discuss health sharing ministries and why Ionava was built to be secular and broadly accessible rather than tied to religious attestation. Jennifer explains the health score quiz, how it helps price vaults, and why Ionava currently starts with the healthiest applicants to maintain actuarial discipline. The episode dives into pre-existing conditions, how current health status affects eligibility, and why some people may be asked to wait as the pool expands. Karen and Jennifer unpack how Ionava avoids the network and contracted-rate limitations that shape traditional insurance, including why cash-based purchasing offers more flexibility across states and even internationally.   Timestamps   00:00 - Why healthy people feel punished by the insurance system 01:13 - Jennifer's 21 years inside insurance and what she saw 02:40 - Denials, surprise bills, and the pain points that shaped Ionava 03:30 - Why there is no "good driver discount" for health 05:01 - Why most people never get their money's worth from insurance 06:18 - Preventive care that still triggers hidden costs 07:16 - The problem with opaque medical pricing 08:38 - Why innovation often falls outside traditional coverage 09:27 - Why Jennifer first tried to fix insurance from the inside 11:43 - The limits of claims help and out-of-network gaps 13:42 - Why the private sector had to build a new answer 14:15 - What "health financial preparedness" means 15:39 - Health as physical, mental, and financial readiness 16:41 - Why people still buy insurance even when they hate it 17:12 - Ionava as an alternative or layered financial strategy 18:28 - How Ionava differs from HSAs 20:20 - Why Ionava is more like a funded debit wallet 21:46 - What counts as a qualified spend 22:10 - Why FSAs can feel like a use-it-or-lose-it trap 23:34 - Why Ionava rolls over and rewards healthy behavior 24:17 - How Ionava differs from health sharing ministries 26:36 - Why the health score exists 27:34 - How vault pricing works and why rates are locked for life 29:01 - Optional biometrics and earning more on your wallet balance 30:29 - How Ionava thinks about pre-existing conditions 31:57 - Why some applicants may be asked to come back later 33:11 - Beauty, fitness, and wellness spending inside the wallet 34:37 - The support system for new users 36:15 - Why Ionava is different from reimbursement-based models 37:37 - How insurance networks and contracted rates really work 41:04 - Why Ionava uses cash pricing worldwide 42:39 - Jennifer's weekly wellness spend: supplements 43:18 - The biggest myth healthy people believe about insurance 43:47 - Why she wants HSAs to fund Ionava vaults 44:18 - Books that shaped her thinking: The Go Giver and Give and Take 46:10 - Gardening, herbs, and staying grounded while building a company 47:18 - Where to learn more about Ionava and reserve a vault   More About Jennifer:   Jennifer (Azar) Burnham-Grubbs, is the Founder and CEO of Quantum Insurance Services and the Founder of ionava.

How do you stop caring what people think when everyone is watching? Preventive wellness strategist and founder Michal Renée joins viral creator Robiiiworld for a conversation about online hate, fear of judgment and why being seen isn't the same as being known.You know the skits. You don't know everything happening off-camera. Robiiiworld revisits his baptism backlash and opens up about love, caring for his father and becoming the black sheep his family now depends on. Michal shares why fear of judgment kept her off the internet for two years, even after her life had changed.Together, they unpack the visibility wound: wanting to show up as yourself, but bracing for people to hold your past against you. We're talking faith, mental health, ambition and finding your purpose without waiting for everybody to understand it. God is still working on you. The comments are not your performance review.

This week, Jason is joined by Banfield Pet Hospital Chief Medical Officer Dr. Alea Harrison for a conversation about the real economics of pet ownership, why preventive care can be one of the smartest financial decisions pet owners make, and how planning ahead can help avoid thousands of dollars in unexpected veterinary expenses. Dr. Harrison shares her journey from leaving the country to attend veterinary school in St. Kitts to becoming a practicing veterinarian and eventually helping guide clinical strategy for roughly 3,600 veterinarians across more than 1,000 Banfield hospitals nationwide. Dr. Harrison breaks down what people should actually budget for when bringing home a pet, including veterinary care, nutrition, grooming, training, boarding, and daycare—and why many of the biggest expenses are the ones owners rarely think about beforehand. She explains why choosing the right food should be based on a pet's individual health, breed, and lifestyle rather than marketing or social media trends, and reveals why taking a proactive approach to veterinary care can dramatically change both a pet's long-term health and the owner's finances. Jason and Dr. Harrison also dive into Banfield's Optimum Wellness Plans, why they were designed to make preventive veterinary care more accessible and predictable, and how they differ from traditional pet insurance. Dr. Harrison explains how bundling preventive services can save clients more than 30% compared to paying for each service individually, while plans can include comprehensive exams, vaccinations, diagnostic testing, unlimited office visits, and 24/7 Pet Chat access. She also explains why pet insurance and wellness plans can work together, with insurance focused on unexpected illnesses, injuries, and surgeries while wellness plans focus on routine preventive care. Plus, Dr. Harrison reveals some of the numbers that show just how expensive waiting can become. Heartworm prevention can cost around $25 per month, while treating heartworm disease can range from roughly $1,200 to $6,000 depending on the pet. She also shares that Banfield data shows 80% of dogs and 75% of cats have signs of dental disease by just one year old, explains how certain breeds can be predisposed to costly health problems, and breaks down why spaying and neutering can help prevent serious conditions and certain cancers in addition to controlling the pet population. Dr. Harrison also gets candid about the challenges of becoming a veterinarian, from the competitiveness and financial burden of veterinary school to building a career that can extend far beyond treating individual patients. She explains how her own definition of impact evolved from caring for pets one-on-one to influencing thousands of veterinarians and ultimately helping improve care on a much larger scale. Dr. Harrison reveals why creating predictability, staying proactive instead of reactive, and preparing for expenses before they become emergencies can make all the difference for pet owners. She also leaves Jason with her ultimate trading secret, a mantra she applies to business, family, and veterinary medicine: “If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.” She reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!

What if the future of medicine isn't only about treating disease, but understanding what's happening in the body long before disease takes hold? Dr. Michael Aziz joins I Am Refocused Radio for a conversation about longevity, preventive health, nutrition, biological aging, and the ideas behind his book, The Ageless Revolution. Dr. Aziz is a board-certified Internal Medicine physician, author, and media commentator whose work brings together traditional and functional medicine. He has appeared across national media and has spent years exploring nutrition, hormones, preventive medicine, and strategies aimed at improving healthspan. In this conversation, we explore what happens to the body as we age, why Dr. Aziz believes medicine should pay greater attention to the mechanisms of aging, the difference between lifespan and healthspan, and what people should understand about the rapidly growing longevity movement. We also discuss nutrition, metabolic health, emerging approaches to healthy aging, and how people can become more proactive about their health without getting lost in every new wellness trend. https://www.michaelazizmd.com/  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time. 

There's a virus within a bacterium within a parasite, and University of Kentucky researchers are figuring out how to make them kill each other. Dr. Greg talks with a UK researcher who has been studying the Lyme issue for nearly 30 years.

In this episode, Dr. Gladden speaks with Dr. Hany Demian about the shift from reactive medicine to prevention, personalization, and longevity-focused care. Dr. Hany shares how his journey through breast surgery, emergency medicine, and chronic pain management led him to a more systems-based approach to health, aging, and healing. They discuss why aging may be better understood as a condition, how patient empowerment changes outcomes, and why nervous system regulation, stress reduction, and individualized care matter as much as diagnostics and therapies.

Is AI really coming for fleet technicians? Or is it about to make them more valuable than ever? Recorded live from the Government Fleet Expo (GFX) in Long Beach, California, Marc Canton and Facundo Tassara have an unscripted conversation covering the biggest trends shaping the future of fleet management. From artificial intelligence and robotics to technician shortages, fleet analytics, benchmarking, leadership development, and government fleet collaboration, this episode explores what public fleet leaders should be paying attention to over the next five years. The discussion goes beyond AI hype to examine how artificial intelligence will transform diagnostics, analytics, and decision-making—not replace experienced fleet professionals. Marc and Facundo also reflect on lessons from GFX, why Florida government fleets consistently rank among the nation's best, how collaboration drives operational excellence, and why future fleet leaders will need stronger business and leadership skills than ever before. Whether you're a fleet manager, maintenance supervisor, public works leader, or municipal executive, this episode offers practical insights into how technology, data, and leadership are reshaping the fleet industry. Key Takeaways AI will augment—not simply replace—fleet technicians. The hosts predict AI-powered robotics and intelligent diagnostic systems will eventually handle repetitive maintenance tasks while skilled technicians focus on higher-level problem solving. Context matters more than data alone. AI can analyze fleet information quickly, but fleet professionals must still provide operational context to make good decisions. Fleet analytics are evolving. Traditional utilization metrics like miles driven often fail to tell the complete story. Future fleet management will rely on mission-based performance metrics instead of simple mileage. Leadership skills are becoming essential. As technicians advance into supervisory and management roles, communication, coaching, and strategic thinking become just as important as technical expertise. Collaboration creates stronger fleets. Government fleets that openly share ideas, purchasing strategies, emergency planning, and operational best practices consistently achieve better results. AI requires healthy skepticism. The hosts demonstrate how AI tools can occasionally provide incorrect information, reinforcing the importance of validating AI-generated answers. Fleet managers need better storytelling. Data alone isn't enough—leaders must communicate performance in ways executives and elected officials understand. Industry relationships accelerate innovation. Conferences like GFX provide opportunities to exchange ideas that can significantly improve fleet operations and professional growth. Topics Covered Artificial Intelligence in fleet maintenance Will robots replace mechanics? Government Fleet Expo (GFX) insights Public fleet leadership Technician shortages Fleet benchmarking Fleet KPIs and analytics Fleet utilization metrics Preventive maintenance Government fleet collaboration Professional development Fleet conferences Data-driven decision making Fleet management technology Future of public sector fleets Who Should Listen? This episode is valuable for: Fleet Managers Fleet Directors Public Works Directors Municipal Leaders Fleet Maintenance Supervisors Shop Managers Government Fleet Professionals Fleet Consultants Operations Leaders Anyone interested in AI's impact on maintenance operations Speaker Bios Marc Canton Marc Canton serves as Vice President of Fleet Success at RTA Fleet and is an award-winning fleet management leader with extensive experience leading public sector fleet operations.

Feeling overloaded by conflicting health advice or worried about what might be happening inside your body as you move through midlife? Wondering if there's a way to get clear answers about cancer and chronic disease risks before symptoms start? This episode explores what a preventive MRI cancer screening can (and cannot) tell you, and how new technology is giving women more agency in their preventive health decisions. Today, journalist Natalie Tysdal sits down with Dr. Danna Chung, Chief Medical Officer at Ezra, to discuss the realities of proactive cancer screening with advanced MRI imaging. If you crave practical, evidence-driven insights about early detection and managing your health risks as you age, this conversation offers needed perspective, without hype or sensationalism. Dr. Chung's commitment to making screening more accessible stems from her own experience as a parent and physician navigating cancer in her family, making her a thoughtful guide through both the data and the emotions of screening. What you'll learn: • What MRI scans can detect, including early signs of cancer in up to 13 organs, as well as early indicators of chronic diseases like fatty liver and heart risk • How artificial intelligence is being used to improve the clarity, speed, and affordability of MRI-based cancer screening • Who can benefit from these screenings, how the process works, and what to expect—especially if you have fears about MRI or worries about "too much information" • The real limitations of MRI scans, including which cancers they're best at finding and which traditional screenings (like mammograms or colonoscopies) you still need • How annual health tracking empowers you to catch changes early and make informed decisions, not just for you but for those who depend on you Midlife is a season of valued responsibilities and sometimes-invisible health shifts. Practical, nuanced information can be empowering, especially when it is free from hype and fear. This episode is here to offer solid answers and calm, trustworthy context so you can make preventive choices that fit your real life and priorities. Episode Website  

For half a century, Israel treated its adversaries as if their intentions could be tracked and might change according to circumstances. With the states surrounding it, that assumption largely held: Egypt, for instance, signed a peace treaty and kept it, whatever else occurred in the region. But with the radical forces that Iran built around Israel in the years before October 7, that same assumption proved catastrophic. Hamas, Hizballah, the Houthis, and the militias in Syria and Iraq do not vary in their commitment to Israel's destruction. What varies is only their capability. And so Israel has been forced to exchange a doctrine built on monitoring intention for one built on continually destroying capability, whatever the diplomatic cost, wherever preparations for war are found. Today's guest, Dan Schueftan, calls this doctrine preventive violence, or simply, violent maintenance. Schueftan is the director of the National Security Studies Center at the University of Haifa. In conversation with Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver, he lays out this doctrine, its roots, and the circumstances that forced Israel to adopt it. He then offers a threat assessment of Iran's proxy network as it stands today: in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, Syria, and Iraq—before turning to the sepearate question of Turkey.

Darryl Moon joins the conversation to challenge one of the biggest assumptions about healthcare:That rising healthcare costs are simply unavoidable.They aren't.Drawing from decades of experience leading hospitals as a CFO, COO, and CEO, Darryl explains why many healthcare systems are built around incentives that often conflict with the goals of employers and patients alike.Rather than focusing solely on treating illness, he argues that healthcare should be designed around long-term relationships, prevention, and helping people achieve healthier lives before serious medical problems arise.The discussion explores why employers have far more influence over healthcare than they realize, how alternative primary care models are reducing costs while improving outcomes, and why simply spending more money doesn't necessarily produce better health.Most importantly, it's a reminder that fixing healthcare isn't just about new technology or new policies.It's about redesigning incentives so every part of the system is working toward the same goal.TL;DRHealthcare costs continue to rise because many incentives inside the system are misaligned.Employers have more power than they realize to reshape how healthcare is delivered.Strong primary care relationships can improve outcomes while reducing long-term costs.Building trust between patients and providers is often more valuable than simply expanding treatment options.Preventive care and ongoing coaching can reduce expensive hospital visits.Relationships—not just medicine—play a major role in improving health.Real healthcare transformation begins by aligning incentives around patient wellbeing instead of system revenue.Memorable Lines“Healthcare doesn't have an innovation problem—it has an alignment problem.”“Relationships come first. Science comes second.”“The people who buy healthcare are the only ones who can truly change the system.”“Most healthcare spending can be traced back to behavior.”“Better primary care creates better outcomes at lower cost.”“You don't change health by treating illness—you change it by helping people achieve their life goals.”“Healthcare should become a partner in life, not just a place you visit when something breaks.”GuestDarryl MoonHealthcare transformation strategist and former hospital executive who has served as a CFO, COO, and CEO across multiple hospitals.Today, Darryl works with employers to redesign healthcare purchasing strategies, helping organizations reduce costs while improving employee health through relationship-based primary care and better incentive alignment.Why This MattersHealthcare conversations usually focus on insurance, hospitals, or government policy.This episode shifts the conversation toward incentives.If organizations reward the wrong outcomes, costs will continue rising regardless of how much money is spent.But when healthcare is designed around trust, prevention, and long-term relationships, both employers and patients can benefit from better care at a lower cost.Sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn't discovering a new treatment.It's redesigning the system so everyone is finally working toward the same outcome.

Preventive medicine flips the script on how we usually handle our healthcare: Instead of waiting until something breaks, you catch issues earlier, when they're easier to address. In this episode, Rahul Iyengar, MD, explains why our current "sick care" system tends to wait for symptoms before stepping in — and what a more proactive model looks like.    He also shares why relationship-based care that gives providers more time with patients tends to lead to better outcomes, and how lasting health comes from sustainable habits rather than quick fixes. He offers a clear, practical look at taking charge of your health on your own terms.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/prevent-vs-react-why-taking-a-proactive-approach-to-your-health-matters-with-rahul-iyengar-md   Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

Good health isn't built through quick fixes—it's created through consistent daily choices, meaningful relationships, and a commitment to showing up for yourself. In this thoughtful conversation, Dr. Michelle Robin sits down with longtime friend and family physician Dr. Chris Ehly to explore the evolving landscape of men's health, the importance of preventive care, and why more men are beginning to prioritize both their physical and emotional well-being. Drawing from more than three decades of medical experience, Dr. Ehly shares practical insights on building a strong foundation for lifelong health through movement, whole foods, quality sleep, and regular health screenings.  The conversation also highlights the powerful connection between mental health, community, and overall wellness. Dr. Ehly discusses how stress, loneliness, and emotional struggles often show up differently in men, and why creating safe spaces for honest conversations matters. Together, he and Dr. Robin reflect on the value of leading by example, finding joy in everyday life, and investing in relationships that support long-term well-being.   Key Takeaways:   Lasting wellness comes from small, consistent habits practiced over time.   Prioritizing sleep, movement, and whole foods creates a strong foundation for better health.   Preventive care and regular screenings can help identify health concerns before they become serious.   Meaningful relationships and community are essential components of overall well-being.   Mental health improves when we seek support, practice self-awareness, and stay connected to others.   We couldn't highlight incredible stories like this without the support of our sponsor, CommunityAmerica Credit Union. Thank you for helping us promote connection, well-being, and stronger communities.

Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Father-Son Chiropractors on Spinal Health, Mobility, and Whole-Body Wellness Dr. Warrick Bishop, cardiologist and host of the Healthy Heart Network podcast, welcomes Stephen and Sam Crean — a father-and-son chiropractic duo from Hobart and Kingston Chiropractic in Tasmania — in what he describes as his first-ever father-son podcast. The conversation explores the broader scope of chiropractic care beyond back pain, its role in healthy aging, and how it complements other health disciplines. Key Takeaways: Chiropractic care extends well beyond treating back pain — it addresses any issue involving muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints, bones, and nerves throughout the entire body Approximately 60% of the Creans' practice consists of patients over 50, reflecting chiropractic's significant role in supporting healthy aging Improving spinal mobility and neurological function helps older patients maintain independence, manage muscle mass, support cardiovascular health, and reduce fall risk The spine's ability to move and function as designed is central to overall health, as spinal nerves connect to muscles, proprioceptors, and organs throughout the body Chiropractic care works best as part of a complementary healthcare approach, integrating with services like strength training and bone density programs Patient empowerment is a core goal — practitioners send patients home with exercises and ergonomic guidance so they can actively participate in their own recovery Some therapeutic discomfort is a normal and necessary part of chiropractic treatment, distinguishing productive adaptation from harmful pain Preventive and performance-focused chiropractic care — starting early in life — can be more impactful than waiting until pain or dysfunction develops The Creans have worked collaboratively with local football clubs for over a decade, training multidisciplinary sports teams in chiropractic principles within their respective scopes

What if the way you're aging has more to do with your metabolic health than your age itself? In this episode of Optimal Metabolism, I sit down with longevity physician Dr. Jennifer Timmons to discuss the powerful connection between insulin resistance, hormone health, disease prevention, and aging well. Dr. Timmons shares how her experience in traditional primary care led her to pursue advanced training in functional medicine, precision medicine, and longevity medicine. Together, we discuss what it really means to optimize health as we age, why insulin resistance accelerates many age-related conditions, and how women can navigate menopause with a long-term health strategy in mind. We also explore the growing interest in peptide therapies, where they may fit into a comprehensive health plan, and the foundational lifestyle habits that matter far more than the latest longevity trends. If you're interested in protecting your metabolic health, maintaining vitality as you age, and increasing your healthspan—not just your lifespan—this episode is for you. WHAT WE DISCUSSED: Why insulin resistance may accelerate the aging process The difference between lifespan and healthspan Menopause as a long-term metabolic and cardiovascular transition The role of muscle mass in healthy aging How longevity medicine differs from traditional healthcare Preventive testing and early disease detection Peptide therapies: benefits, limitations, and considerations Common mistakes people make when pursuing longevity Why consistency often beats biohacking Practical steps women can take today to age well FOR MORE INFORMATION FROM DR.

AI can finally write back to the plant floor, but only if you can trust it. Chris Stevens and Annemarie Breu of Siemens explain how orchestration makes that safe.Industrial AI has reached a turning point. Manufacturers can already collect data, contextualize it, and surface insights, but the hardest step has always been turning insight into action on real control equipment. Chris Stevens and Annemarie Breu of Siemens explain how an orchestration layer finally closes that loop. Annemarie frames the tension clearly. Automation depends on determinism, while large language models are probabilistic by design, so the goal is to bring that discipline into AI and validate any suggestion before it changes a set point.Most executive conversations start with return on investment, and two forces are making the case easier to prove. The workforce shortage has stretched the expected payback window from 18 months toward 36 months, and when a line cannot run for lack of people every idle minute costs thousands of dollars. The other driver is overall equipment effectiveness, since most plants run near 70 percent OEE and even a fraction of a percent of gain can justify a project. Energy is a standout case too. A BorgWarner sustainability effort used a digital twin to flatten demand peaks and reportedly paid for itself in under six months, even as data center growth pushes electricity demand higher through 2040.On trust and safety, Annemarie borrows a principle from industrial safety. Just as fail safe IO modules rely on two channel evaluation, every AI suggestion is validated against a state machine, a workflow, or a physics based digital twin before the orchestration layer passes it to a controller. With virtual commissioning and soft PLCs a change can be tested virtually, approved by a human in the loop, and only then written to control, an approach PepsiCo and NVIDIA echoed at CES when they called the digital twin a must have. Making AI real, the pair argue, comes down to discipline, clear scope, acceptance criteria, and focused 90 day challenges, plus the change management and user experience that drive adoption. Their favorite quick win is preventive maintenance driven by machine data, which both BorgWarner and Maersk tied to millions in savings.About Chris StevensChris Stevens is President of US Automation at Siemens, where he leads a roughly one billion dollar business spanning software, services, and hardware. He brings more than 25 years across Siemens Digital Industries, starting in the field selling assembly and test equipment, moving into the software and digital twin world, and returning to automation to bring the hardware and software sides of the business together.About Annemarie BreuAnnemarie Breu is a senior technology leader at Siemens Digital Industries focused on automation software deployment and customer technology partnerships in the US. She began at Siemens about a decade ago as a systems engineer in the San Francisco Bay Area, working with consumer electronics manufacturers on virtual commissioning and digital twins.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions The 2026 Cholesterol Revolution: PREVENT Scores, Hidden Risk Markers, and CAC ScansThe script explains how 2026 ACC/AHA guideline changes aim to make heart attacks more preventable by shifting from short-term “10-year risk” thinking to “lower for longer,” precision prevention, and primordial prevention starting earlier in life. It critiques the older Pooled Cohort Equations for underestimating risk in younger people and introduces the PREVENT equation, which adds 30-year risk plus kidney, metabolic, and social factors. It highlights lipoprotein(a) as a largely genetic once-in-a-lifetime test and hs-CRP as an inflammation marker, and emphasizes coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring as a tiebreaker for statin decisions (0, 1–99, ≥100). Cases illustrate these tools, including tighter LDL goals (

Our U.S. Healthcare Analyst Erin Wright discusses how health tracking and preventive diagnostics could influence healthcare costs and different industries, from fitness to retail.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Erin Wright, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Healthcare Services Analyst. Today – the emergence of the self-directed patient and its implications. It's Tuesday, May 12th at 10am in New York. A blood test ordered from your phone. A wearable that tracks your sleep or nudges you to move, recover, hydrate, or rethink last night's dinner. Preventive health is moving out of the clinic and into everyday life. And that shift is becoming an investable theme. In essence, healthcare is moving from reactive to proactive. Instead of waiting for symptoms, more consumers are using lab tests, wearables, imaging, and digital tools to spot some these risks earlier. And this shift reaches well beyond healthcare. On our estimates, the U.S. spends about [$]3.4 trillion annually on chronic diseases, including lost economic productivity. About [$]1.4 trillion of 2024 spend was tied to preventable disease. So the big investment question is: can earlier detection and behavior change bend the cost curve? We think expanded preventive testing, screening, and monitoring can help avoid roughly [$]200 billion to [$]800 billion of U.S. healthcare spend by 2050. That assumes preventive testing reduces preventable disease costs by about 10% to 30% based on our analysis. Direct-to-consumer lab testing lets people order lab tests directly, often online, without starting with a traditional doctor visit. We see this as a roughly $4 billion U.S. market, which has more than doubled since 2021. And it's no longer niche. Our AlphaWise survey found that about 34% of respondents completed a voluntary wellness lab test in the past three years. Among users, the average was 3.2 tests, suggesting this is not just a one-time behavior. The most common test was a general health profile, used by about 45 percent of recent testers. Wearables are the other part of the story. Our survey found that 41 percent of respondents currently use a wearable or fitness device, while another 22 percent are interested in getting one. More importantly, people are acting on the data. 34 percent of wearable users today regularly change behaviors or decisions based on their device, and 52 percent even sometimes do so, based on our survey. That creates a feedback loop. A wearable might flag poor sleep. A lab test might show elevated glucose. A digital health tool might suggest changes to diet or exercise, or follow-up care. Over time, prevention starts to feel less like an annual event and more like a daily habit. The sector implications are broad. In healthcare, more testing may initially actually increase utilization as people follow up on results. But over time, earlier detection could obviously support lower-cost of care and better chronic disease management. That also aligns with value-based care, where providers and payers are rewarded for better outcomes and lower total costs, not just simply more services. In consumer sectors, better health tracking could shape food choices, reduce demand for some indulgent categories, and support products tied to hydration, lower sugar, protein, and functional benefits. Fitness may also benefit as gyms evolve from just workout destinations into broader wellness platforms, with recovery and coaching, and preventive health services layered in. Imaging is another emerging area, as screening shifts from reactive diagnostics toward earlier disease detection. Of course, there is some risk that these health tracking and consumer-driven diagnostics trends could still prove to be a wellness craze rather than the new normal. Out-of-pocket costs, privacy concerns, inconsistent interpretations, and limited repeat testing are all real issues. But consumers are clearly taking more control of their health and increasingly asking, “What can I learn before I get sick?” Thanks for listening.

He walks through how colorectal cancer develops and why it is uniquely well-suited to early detection and prevention, with a particular emphasis on the dual role of colonoscopy as both a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. Peter also examines the concerning rise in early-onset CRC among younger adults, highlighting why awareness and timely screening matter more than ever. The episode provides a practical guide to preparing for and evaluating the quality of a colonoscopy, including how to think about appropriate screening intervals and the real risks and tradeoffs involved. Finally, Peter explores the expanding landscape of non-invasive screening options, offering clear insight into what these alternatives can and cannot do so listeners can make informed decisions about their care at any age.

Most of medicine is built around snapshots. You feel something, you test for it, and by the time you find it, you're already behind. But what if the problem isn't the test—it's how we use it? In this episode, I sit down with physicist and imaging pioneer Dr. Daniel Sodickson, Chief Medical Scientist at Function Health and author of The Future of Seeing. We break down why tools like MRI are shifting from one-time scans to something far more powerful: tracking your health over time. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this episode, we cover: • Why waiting for symptoms puts you behind—and how to get ahead • What an MRI can reveal about your body that bloodwork can't • How tracking your health over time helps you catch problems sooner • Why having a baseline could change the way you make health decisions • What it means to shift from reacting to disease to actually predicting it When you stop looking at a single result and start looking at patterns, you can catch changes earlier, reduce false alarms, and better predict where your health is headed.
