In today's episode, Julia talks with Dr. Aimee, a renowned fertility specialist recognized as the "egg whisperer."  Together, Julia and Dr. Aimee delve into her complete “obsession to bring more love into this world” by helping more intended parents conceive.  They also discuss the many ways she is changing the patient experience by shifting the mindset around fertility treatment - from one of a battle to one of glitter, hope, and magic.    Dr. Aimee distinguishes her approach to in vitro fertilization (IVF) from that of her peers, emphasizing her focus on "OLS (Ovarian Life Support)" and her unwavering dedication to retrieving every viable egg from her patients. While she exudes enthusiasm for IVF, Dr. Aimee remains pragmatic, acknowledging that not every woman will achieve pregnancy, and she candidly reveals how she navigates such circumstances. Don't miss this captivating two-part series.   IN THIS EPISODE:   [02:48] Dr. Aimee shares her love of being a fertility doctor, knowing that was her calling from an early age [05:05] Why is she called ‘the egg whisperer' and getting through the hard stuff [10:15] Dr. Aimee's advice to someone who is discouraged.

They are similar to getting a full consultation. Learn about IVF. Remember your treatment history. Don't expect every doctor to remember the details about your medical treatments. Be your advocate.  After many treatments and discouragements trying to get pregnant, you might need to stop and take a break to see if going through more treatment is right for you.

Nestlé said it has agreed to acquire the Seattle's Best Coffee brand from Starbucks, further strengthening the Nescafe and Nespresso owner's coffee business in the US. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about this latest acquisition and the longstanding partnership between Nestlé and Starbucks. Their perpetual licensing agreement has allowed Nestlé to sell and distribute some Starbucks products at retail and food service locations outside Starbucks stores around the world. Despite shrinking coffee sales, coffee has been a consistently strong point in Nestlé's portfolio, with coffee products contributing to more than $25 billion, or approximately 27 percent of Nestlé's total sales last year. The team is surprised to learn how lucrative coffee is to Nestlé's overall sales and commend Starbucks for working so closely with the food and beverage giant in the coffee industry when they could have been direct competitors.Also, in this episode, Sydney talks about a recent review published in the Journal of Public Health Management and Practice that revealed the challenges of conducting retail food inspections during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as lessons learned regarding food safety best practices. The review identified five key areas of difficulty that impacted food safety best practices at the local level during the pandemic: difficulty prioritizing routine food safety inspections; challenges with conducting virtual inspections; distrust of public health; inspectors facing threats and harassment; andchallenges with contact tracing and tracing foodborne illness outbreaks. The review also identified strategies to ensure that food safety best practices are upheld. The team posit that food safety inspectors and foodservice employees should have open and honest communication since they are working towards the same goal.Read the full articles here:Nestlé Acquires Seattle's Best Coffee from StarbucksFood Safety Best Practices: Lessons Learned from the COVID-19 PandemicFor more food and beverage industry content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social Media Twitter: @XtalksFood Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

In this episode we are joined by Dr. Alden Lai, a management scholar who researches organizational cognition in health care and public health. He investigates the ways health care professionals and managers handle complex, ambiguous, or novel information at work, and how these processes contribute to the safety and quality performance of healthcare organizations. He also examines how people generate meaning and meaningfulness of work to understand issues on burnout, resilience, and workplace wellness. Some of his current research involves: futuristic thinking and the aversion of patient safety events; the psychological antecedents of meaning-making among primary care providers; and employee-employer value fit and job satisfaction of allied health professionals in team-based care models. Dr. Lai has an affiliated appointment in the Department of Management and Organizations at NYU Stern. Prior to joining the NYU faculty, Dr. Lai was involved in teaching executive education as well as graduate and undergraduate courses on health care leadership and management, patient safety, and quality improvement at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Carey Business School. He currently teaches Public Health Management and Leadership. Dr. Lai has worked with universities, federal and state governments, health systems, and research foundations internationally. His professional experiences include being a management consultant, social enterprise strategist, and education research consultant. He was also the Novartis Visiting Fellow at Ho Chi Minh City Medicine & Pharmacy University (Vietnam), Visiting Fellow at Fukushima Medical University (Japan), Chair of the European Health Psychology Society’s early career researcher division, and executive board member in the Academy of Management's Division of Health Care Management.

Ira Pastor, ideaXme exponential health ambassador interviews Dr. Tara O’Toole, Executive Vice President and Senior Fellow at In-Q-Tel. Ira Pastor Comments: We have a fascinating show today focused on a very timely topic. On a few past episodes we’ve explored the topic of viruses from different angles – from the somewhat benign ,where we discussed the "good" human virome and Hepatitis G co-infection, to the less benign (where we discussed chronic herpes simplex II infection and potential links to neuro-degeneration), to the downright nasty (where we have spoken about the Ebola virus). But we have not yet talked about the emergent (i.e. Coronavirus), unknown viruses, or for that matter the "intentionally malevolent." Dr. Tara O'Toole Dr Tara O'Toole is Executive Vice President and Senior Fellow at In-Q-Tel which is a private, non-profit strategic investment firm that links the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and other components of the US Intelligence Community with venture-backed start-up firms on the leading edge of technological innovation. Dr. O’Toole is leading a strategic In-Q-Tel initiative called B.Next to explore opportunities and risks likely to arise in the next decade as a result of advances in the biological sciences and biotechnologies, with a particular focus on detection of, and defense, against biological attacks. Prior to joining In-Q-Tel, Dr. O’Toole served as Under Secretary for the Science and Technology Directorate at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), where she was responsible for scientific and technological research designed to provide new security and resilience innovations. Prior to her work at the DHS, she was the CEO and Director of the Center for Biosecurity at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), an independent organisation dedicated to improving the country’s resilience to major biological threats. A Career in Biosecurity and Biodefense Dr. O’Toole is internationally known for her work on biosecurity as well as on health and safety issues related to the US nuclear weapons complex, as well as her disaster response exercises, where she was a principal author and producer of Dark Winter and Atlantic Storm both of which simulated a covert outbreak of smallpox in the United States. She has many publications in the biodefense field on topics including contagious disease epidemics, biodefense research and development strategies, and hospital preparedness, including the book Bioterrorism: Guidelines for Medical and Public Health Management. Dr. O’Toole has a bachelor’s degree from Vassar College, an MD from George Washington University, and a master’s of public health degree from Johns Hopkins University. She completed internal medicine residency training at Yale University and a fellowship in occupational and environmental medicine at Johns Hopkins University. On this episode we will hear from Dr. O'Toole: How she developed an interest in medicine, public health, and in the topics of biodefense and biosecurity. About DHS and the CIA's role in the management of epidemics, outbreaks, and biological weapons' defense. The B.Next Initiative and the Biodefense Technology Architecture at In-Q-Tel.

We’re talking about the bridge between rural and public health with Michael Meit, co-director of the NORC Walsh Center for Rural Health Analysis. “I am just blown away by our youth in our rural communities. They give me hope for the future. They excite me. They are out future leaders.” ~Michael Meit Michael serves as the Senior Fellow in the NORC at the University of Chicago Public Health Research Department as well as serving in his co-director position. He has spent over twenty years working to bridge research in the fields of rural health and public health, conducting extensive research through mixed-methods approaches. Michael hopes to create a better understanding of health disparities through this research. “Rather than focusing so much on rural challenges, I think we really need to tell the positive story about what is good and strong about Rural America.” ~Michael Meit Michael recently led studies covering rural food security issues in youths, rural disparities in overdose mortality, along with how strengths and assets can be leveraged to improve rural health equity. Before his role at the NORC, Michael worked in public health academia as the director of the University Of Pittsburgh Center for Rural Health Practice.

Am Univ Law Rev. 2019.University of Washington School of Law.University of Missouri School of Law.CitationAm Univ Law Rev. 2019;68(3):823-925.Cannabis producers appear to assume that descheduling would facilitate a robust market in cannabis-based edibles and dietary supplements. In fact, neither of these things is true. If cannabis were descheduled, the FDA's complex and comprehensive regulatory framework governing foods, drugs, and dietary supplements would preclude much of this anticipated commerce. For example, any medical claims about cannabis would require the seller to complete the rigorous new drug approval process, the cost of which will be prohibitive for most current traditional providers.NEXTScience/Human: Cannabis use is associated with a lower probability of obesity in healthy peopleIn a representative group for the US population, who were followed for 3 years cannabis use was associated with a lower increase of BMI (body mass index). Researchers of the Department of Family Medicine of Michigan State University in East Lansing, USA, published their research in the International Journal of Epidemiology. Adults completed computer-assisted personal interviews on cannabis use, body weight and height at Waves 1 (2001-2002) and 2 (2004-2005).At wave 2, 77% of the participants never used cannabis, 18% had discontinued use, 3% were initiates and 2% were persistent users. Estimated BMI change over 3 years shows an increase for all subgroups. Compared with never-users, there was an inverse association of cannabis use with obesity and body mass index.NEXTScience: Degradation of THC over a course of 4 years under different storage conditionsResearchers of the Laboratory of Environmental Hygiene and Forensic Toxicology of the DMPO Department in Venice, Italy, investigated the degradation of THC in herbal and resin materials containing different initial concentrations of THC. Four representative samples were collected from each study material and were maintained for a prolonged time (four years) under different controlled storage conditions: (A) light and room temperature (22°C); (B) darkness and room temperature; (C) darkness and refrigeration (4 °C); (D) darkness and freezing (-20 °C)Almost 100% of THC was degraded after four years under conditions A and B (room temperature, light or dark). Data indicated that the storage temperature and light exposure had two different effects on the conversion of THC to CBN. Models were proposed which allow to predict the storage time, if unknown, and the initial content of THC, from the measurement of THC and CBN content at any time under storage condition A.Zamengo L, Bettin C, Badocco D, Di Marco V, Miolo G, Frison G.

As stroke survivors, Emergency Room physicians play an important part in our survival and rapid treatment, but we often don't think about them. We build ongoing clinical relationships with our neurologists, physiatrists, OTs, PTs, Speech Therapists. Rehab nurses, CNAs, and more, but not the ER docs. When they see us, our brains are in full crisis/panic mode, our loved ones are terrified, and the doctors are busy making rapid assessments, decisions, and referrals. By the time we get a chance to calm down and assess our new landscape, they are long gone and have transitioned off our care team. That's one reason I enjoyed talking with Dr. Kimberly Brown. It was a chance to get some insight into a field I knew little about.  Among the things I found interesting was how she talk about the impact of technology in medical education -- listening to a heart murmur on the computer during school work and later tying that into the real world in listening on an actual patient. We also talk about the role of ER Pharmacists, the role Methodist University Hospital has had in treating folks with the clot busting drug tPA, and some of the challenges around public health. We do have some discussion of the politics of healthcare in this episode. Regardless of how you feel about the Affordable Care Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the future of Medicare and Medicaid, the political decisions around these programs will directly affect the lives of millions of stroke survivors and potential survivors in the US, and it's important to be aware of what's going on and express your views to your elected officials. We reference the FAST signs for stroke. If you're not familiar with them they are:   We also talk about sepsis or being septic. Sepsis can be the result of the body's attempt to fight an infection. Basically, the infection results in the body dumping an excess of chemicals into the blood stream to fight the infection, but it instead leads to inflammation in other organs. Symptoms of sepsis can sometimes mirror stroke. Sepsis is a life threatening condition. Fortunately whether you come into the ER with Sepsis or Stroke, folks like Dr. Kimberly Brown are there to take care of you. Dr. Kimberly Brown is an emergency physician in Memphis, Tennessee. She is a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin and earned her undergraduate degree from Fisk University. Loving warmer weather, Dr. Brown earned her Master of Public Health degree from the University of Florida in Public Health Management and Policy. She attended Ross University School of Medicine and recently completed her emergency medicine residency as a member of the inaugural graduating class of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis, Tennessee. Dr. Brown’s clinical interests include neurologic emergencies, critical care, sepsis, and education. In her free time, she enjoys traveling, volunteering, watching too much reality tv and trying new restaurants. Improving Care in the Stroke Belt Dr. Brown serves patients in the Stroke Belt of the US. This is the region of the country that since the early 60s has had a significantly higher about of stroke patients and higher mortality from stroke than the rest of the country. It includes: Tennessee Virginia Kentucky North Carolina South Carolina Georgia Alabama Mississippi Louisiana Arkansas Making sure all patients have access to coverage Decrease food desserts Programs to incentive physicians to go to under-served communities in Appalachia and urban centers to ensure access to care Make sure schools are good so kids can read and understand their health Medical professionals have to do a better job at educating patients about how their body works and what's going on with it.   Hack of the Week When you arrive at the ER, especially as a previous stroke survivor or person with disabilities. It's important to provide the team with as much information as possible. The need to know about the medications (legal AND illegal) you are taking, any previous stroke or medical issues, what disabilities you already had, and more. Any video or recent photos of you prior to this incident can also be extremely helpful to the staff so they can get a better sense of what's changed. Every Branch and Leaf -- National Caregivers Month November is National Caregivers Month. These people make a huge difference in our lives, and it's important to recognize and thank them for their support. One way to support caregivers is to read Dr. Kate Lorig's book "Building Better Caregivers." I talked with the author back in episode 19 at http://strokecast.com/kate. Larry Benitez is one of my colleagues from a professional networking group. He's also a banjo player who volunteers at the Old Friends Club in the Seattle area. The Old Friends Club support folks with Alzheimer's and Dementia. Larry recently recorded a song dedicated to care givers. You can learn more about it here. Or just watch the video below.
