In this episode of the HSE Talking Health and Wellbeing Podcast, the discussion features insights from Dr. Breeda Neville, Public Health Specialist and Dr. Sheila Gilheany, CEO of Alcohol Action Ireland. The conversation centred around the significant public health issues associated with alcohol use, particularly its links to cancer. We discuss the new alcohol labelling laws which aim to provide consumers with clear and unbiased information about the products they consume. The call to action from Dr. Neville encourages listeners to consider the immediate benefits of reducing alcohol consumption, such as improved physical and mental health, better sleep, and enhanced relationships. Both Sheila and Breeda agreed that healthcare professionals can play a crucial role in raising awareness and they encouraged health care staff to engage patients in conversations about their alcohol use. Sheila also outlines the challenges posed by the alcohol industry where the marketing used can in some cases obscure the serious health risks associated with alcohol consumption.

The Cumberland County Vector Control Office is working to prevent the spread of the West Nile Virus. Marcus Synder, Public Health Specialist with the Cumberland County Vector says his team is proactive in combating the spread of the virus. “We set data collection traps weekly throughout the county to collect and test mosquito populations for West Nile virus. Whatever we collect, we send to the state of Pennsylvania to the Department of Protection of Environmental Protection, and they test it. They give us back the results. And then based on that, determines how we move forward with specifically adult treatments. Another thing that we try to do is incorporate treating or eliminating any standing water throughout the county. So, there's not an opportunity for those adults to materialize throughout the county.” The West Nile Virus is asymptomatic according to Synder. “I believe it's 2% have neuroinvasive, meaning encephalitis within the brain. So, it can be very dangerous if you have that that form of West Nile. And then the other cases where they're not asymptomatic, they're not invasive, it presents its flu symptoms. So, it can be very dangerous. So that's why we try to kind of curb it where we can. So, if we know it's president of population, we're not getting to that point where people are getting sick by it. We're keeping it in the mosquito population.” Many people struggle to correctly identify mosquitoes. Synder says mosquitos are typically smaller. “a lot of the times they're going to be smaller. So, the bigger ones that you see that people think of, I heard them called things like hawk mosquitoes. And people will think that they're male mosquitoes. Those are actually crane flies. And they actually are pollinators. They don't bite humans. They don't bite anything, actually. They feed on flowers. So, the mosquitoes are going to be smaller and it's going to have a thing called a proboscis, which is kind of like its nose. That's what it drinks the blood with. So that's what you want to look for when you're looking at a bug. It's going to be definitely smaller in size, but you want to look for that proboscis to see if it has the ability to bite anything. That's what differentiates a mosquito from other insects.” Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

LISTEN FIRST MONTANA Listen first. It is what all great leaders do. Episode 45: III Mini-Series episode 8: Dr. Joe McDonald, Cinda Ironmaker, and Major Robinson from the Flathead Nation This mini-series episode was recorded on the Flathead Nation and is made up of 3 parts. For part 1, Major Robinson interviews Dr. Joe McDonald, founder and former president of Salish and Kootenai College. For part 2, Major interviews Cinda Ironmaker, Public Health Specialist for the Rocky Mountain Tribal Leaders Council, and participant in the III program. And finally, we turn the mic on Major to ask him a few questions about examples of indigenous culture reflected in architecture and what he is learning in this Leadership Montana program. Dr. Joe McDonald Powerful Quotes Dr. Joe McDonald on Tribal Colleges serving both indigenous and non-indigenous students: “It's done so much to promote understanding here. The students are in classes together, visit together, recognize one another's cultures and needs and appreciate one another more, so it really has worked out very well.” Major Robinson Powerful Quotes Major Robinson on Indigenous Culture reflected in Architecture: “You know that's important because it makes me stand a little taller, it makes me smile, because it's us reflecting our culture in our buildings that we work and we live in and we play in, and it just shows once again that same message of “we're still here” and not only are we still here, we're thriving, we're expressing our cultural identity through architecture.” Major Robinson on his learning during the CSKT session of III “We're taking our people, hopefully to that next level, and leading in a way that's thoughtful, but leading from a position of identity and connection to our community.” “What I've learned on this trip is realizing how integrated we are with other tribal members as native people. I was reminded that back in the 1980s I actually worked very closely with a lot of the tribal members because we were in that kind of unique group of firefighters you know, a couple of us were smoke jumpers and I actually was a smokejumper that worked with the current tribal chairman, Tom McDonald, and it just made me laugh and smile because you know that was kind of part of our upbringing on the reservation, is that if you can do firefighting, you know, that was something. Because you were giving back to your people, you were giving to your family, you were challenging yourself, and then to go on and do smoke jumping was just a real honor to represent my tribe. It wasn't just representing me it was representing my tribe. There's not too many that do that and I felt like I was carrying my tribe with me and to see that the tribal chairman here was also a smokejumper and lived that life, and in fact, councilwoman Carol Lankford that we met last night, and that I've known for some time as well, that she was also a firefighter as well, so it's just those connections that are so important that you know we're taking our people, hopefully to that next level, and leading in a way that's thoughtful, but leading from a position of identity and connection to our community.” Cinda Ironmaker Powerful Quotes Cinda Ironmaker on her experience in the CSKT session of III: It's just the learning. I think with all of the tribes that we have went to, a lot of the cultures are different on each reservation. And many of those I did not know. So, I am learning as we go along too, like I say, like we get into those individual conversations with Leadership Montana and whoever is teaching those classes and, I learn. I learn things that I never knew before, even though I've traveled to many of these reservations many times, spoken to many people, some of these conversations are things that I have never known before.”

Her patients and clients adore their sleep doctor because she considers everything when giving advice knowing that sleep is not a solitary issue but is intimately related to with child's nutrition, development, day-to-day schedule, and holistic wellbeing.

In this episode...Kristi Mollner is a registered dietitian practicing in Phoenix, Arizona. Kristi not only talks about trauma, but also toxic stress, which many entrepreneurs out there may be suffering with unknowingly. This episode is great for entrepreneurs or business owners who are in the wellness space and want to improve their skills and mindset around working with and alongside people with trauma. I also love this conversation because trauma and mental health is highly stigmatized and it is important to bring awareness, resources, and tools to the forefront. 70% of Americans have experienced a traumatic event at some point in their lives, and this is something that we are not taught to navigate. We talk about: What trauma and toxic stress looks like at an individual and community level Recognizing different layers of trauma at different levels: Inter-generational, Historical, Community, Collective, and Individual The high prevalence of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among all Americans How chronically feeling 'triggered' into fight-flight-freeze can impact the body and health negatively and the importance of emotional-regulation , body-regulation, and self-care Body relaxation practices and mindful techniques to help regulate nervous system and improve healthKristi's high vibe practices to regulate her body and emotions Mentioned in Show:Kristi's instagramKristi's Linked InKristi's email: krist.rdn@gmail.com (Krisi is available for trainings and speaking engagements)Mindful Eating Resource: Well Nourished BookPaced Breathing AppUCLA Mindfulness Resources Harvard University Center for the Developing ChildMore about Krisi Mollner: Kristi is certified as a Master Gardener, a Physical Activity in Public Health Specialist, and in Youth Mental Health First Aid. She is currently completing the Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT) program through the Mindful Eating Training Institute (METI). Her passion to empower and improve the lives of trauma survivors has led her to become a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist-Individual (CCTSI) through the Trauma Institute International. Personally understanding and witnessing the role of trauma and toxic stress on food behaviors, community health, and health outcomes, Kristi takes a trauma-informed approach to all her work. She also strives to educate and train others on how to take a trauma-informed approach to nutrition, health care, and wellness.

My guest today is Dr Chinwe Iwu-Jaja, a public health specialist, originally from Nigeria and based in South Africa. In this episode, we learn that away from the science she's a convener for "Gals International FrankTalk (GIFT)" a group that discusses various topics that concern women in the 21st century. With regards to how her interest in public health started, she attributes this to when she was younger and she visited the local clinics. Chinwe says that she saw the public health posters and she was eager to be involved in this field. Currently, she is a post-doc at Stellenbosch University, involved in different projects. Due to the prevalence of the pandemic, it has forced researchers to deviate their research and focus on the virus. We discuss one of the projects where she wrote several comments on the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular "The impact of burial ceremonies on the spread COVID-19". Further, we talk about her blog called "Health facts with Chinwe", where she shares health information with the public. Lastly, we unpack the importance of public health experts in the dissemination of accurate information and the backfire that they sometimes face educating people who do not agree with their expert views. Tune in to learn more about all this and so much more!
