What happens after colonial industries have run their course—after the factory closes and the fields go fallow? Set in the cinchona plantations of India's Darjeeling Hills, Quinine's Remains: Empire's Medicine and the Life Thereafter (U California Press, 2024) chronicles the history and aftermaths of quinine. Harvested from cinchona bark, quinine was malaria's only remedy until the twentieth-century advent of synthetic drugs, and it was vital to the British Empire. Today, the cinchona plantations—and the roughly fifty thousand people who call them home—remain. Their futures, however, are unclear. The Indian government has threatened to privatize or shut down this seemingly obsolete and crumbling industry, but the plantation community, led by strident trade unions, has successfully resisted. Overgrown cinchona fields and shuttered quinine factories may appear the stuff of postcolonial and postindustrial ruination, but quinine's remains are not dead. Rather, they have become the site of urgent efforts to redefine land and life for the twenty-first century. Quinine's Remains offers a vivid historical and ethnographic portrait of what it means to forge life after empire. Rounak Bose is a doctoral student in History at the University of Delaware. His research explores questions of caste, religiosities, sacred infrastructures, and performance in the interstices of the colonial and postcolonial state, as well as mobilities and circulations across South Asia and Indian Ocean networks. Besides these specific interests, my disciplinary interests revolve around anthropology, literature, and public history, and the digital humanities. When not reading or writing in the university library, Rounak can be found running along Newark's hiking trails and petting the dogs he meets along the way.

Most heists target gold, jewels or cash. This one targeted illegal seeds. As the British established their sprawling empire across the subcontinent and beyond, they encountered a formidable adversary — malaria. There was a cure — the bark of the Andean cinchona tree. The only problem? The Dutch and the French were also looking to corner the market in cinchona. And the trees themselves were under threat.This week on 99pi, we feature a story from Stuff the British Stole, a co-production of ABC Australia and CBC Podcasts.

Episode 148: Leg CrampsFuture Dr. Weller explains the pathophysiology, management, and prevention of leg cramps. Hector Arreaza adds comments and anecdotes about leg cramps.  Written by Olivia Weller, MS4, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine. Comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Definition: Known also as “Charlie horses,” leg cramps are defined as recurrent, painful, involuntary muscle contractions. They can last anywhere from seconds to several minutes, with an average of nine minutes per episode. They are usually nocturnal and thus may be associated with secondary insomnia. Location: A muscle cramp can happen in any muscle in the body, but they occur most commonly in the posterior calf muscles, but they can also involve the thighs or feet. They are more common in women than men and the risk increases with age.Although they are experienced by 7% of children and up to 60% of adults, the exact mechanism remains unknown and there is no definitive treatment at this time. PathophysiologyThere is one leading hypothesis for nocturnal cramps that occur in the posterior calf muscles, and it is related to your sleeping position. When you are laying down in bed your toes are pointed which causes passive plantar flexion while the muscle fibers are shortened maximally. This causes uninhibited nerve stimulation with high-frequency involuntary discharge from lower motor neurons, which causes cramping. Another possible etiology is nerve damage because neurologic conditions such as Parkinson's disease are associated with a higher-than-normal incidence of cramps. Peripheral neuropathy, or damage to the connection between motor nerves and the brain can lead to hyperactive nerves when they are not being properly regulated. Thus, diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for nocturnal cramps due to the high blood sugar levels damaging the small blood vessels which supply the muscles. Decreased blood flow has also been attributed as a cause of leg cramps. People with diseases that affect their vasculature, such as varicose veins or peripheral arterial disease also have a higher incidence of leg cramps. Decreased blood flow to the muscles means less delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles which makes them more susceptible to fatigue. Muscle overuse is one of the dominant explanations for cramping. This can be related to doing too much high-intensity exercise without adequate stretching before and after. Pregnant women have added weight which puts extra strain on the muscles, along with sitting or standing for long periods of time, poor posture and flat feet. Notably, when we age, our tendons naturally shorten and they cannot work as hard, or as quickly which makes them more susceptible to overuse. Additionally, there are mineral deficiencies such as magnesium and potassium or decreased levels of B and D vitamins. With this in mind, people with renal failure that are on hemodialysis have an increased risk of nocturnal leg cramps. And finally, we have medications, some of which are related to mineral deficiencies. The main contributors are statins, diuretics, conjugated estrogens, gabapentin or pregabalin, Zolpidem, clonazepam, albuterol, fluoxetine, sertraline, raloxifene, and teriparatide (analog for parathyroid hormone). Management and preventionThere is no magic treatment to make them go away immediately, however, there are different remedies you can try to help facilitate. My Grandma told me about an old wives' tale, that if you put a bar of soap in your bed at your feet while you sleep, you won't get cramps at night. Maybe it works by the placebo effect, maybe there's a mechanism going on there I don't understand who knows, I'll have to do a study on it. If you get them very often, you can keep a foam roller or a heating pad next to your bed in preparation for when they come. Stretching the muscle is known to be very effective, as well as applying heat or ice to the affected area. You can also try massaging the muscle with your hands or getting out of bed to stand or walk around. Elevating the leg while laying down in bed can also be beneficial. In terms of prevention, you can try out different sleeping positions to see if one works better for you. If you usually sleep on your back, you can stick a pillow under your feet to help keep your toes pointed upward. Or, if you sleep on your stomach you can try to keep your feet hanging off the bed. Another tip is loosening the sheets or blankets around your feet. Daily stretching, especially before and after exercise as well as before bed is useful. Make sure to exercise, stay hydrated, and limit your alcohol and caffeine consumption. You also want to wear supportive shoes or use orthotic inserts in your shoes, especially if you spend lots of time on your feet during the day. Medications/supplements: Since various deficiencies can cause cramps, one way to prevent them is to take supplements such as magnesium, vitamin D, and B12 complex. And as a last resort, you can try medications. Calcium channel blockers such as diltiazem or verapamil have been used, and muscle relaxants including Orphenadrine (Norflex®) and Carisoprodol (Soma®). Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant commonly used as a neuropathic pain medication; this used to be used to treat leg cramps but later it was found that they can actually increase the frequency of muscle cramps so they are no longer used. Quinine was also used for many years to treat leg cramps; however, it is no longer recommended because of drug interactions and serious hematologic effects such as immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Summary: Leg cramps are common, the pathophysiology is unclear, but may be related to problems with blood flow, the nervous system, sleeping position, and muscle overuse. Treatment includes nonpharmacologic therapies such as changes in sleeping position, heat, and massaging; and medications/supplements that may be useful include Carisoprodol (Soma®), diltiazem, gabapentin (Neurontin), magnesium, orphenadrine (Norflex®), verapamil, and vitamin B12 complex.____________________________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 148, “Leg Cramps.” Future Dr. Weller explained that the etiology of leg cramps is multifactorial. Some theories about why leg cramps happen include poor circulation, muscle overuse, dysfunctions in the nervous and musculoskeletal systems, electrolyte imbalances, mineral deficiencies, and more. Some therapies were discussed, including changes in position while sleeping, massage, heat pads, and medications such as calcium channel blockers, muscle relaxants, and supplements of magnesium and Vitamin B12. Gabapentin is a medication that can cause leg cramps, but some sources recommend it as a treatment as well. This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Olivia Weller.

Why why do you think they didn't want people doing that?05:38 - OutroRob Finerty [00:00:00] Also, according to multiple reports, The White House will shut down its COVID response team after the public health emergency ends in May finally passed. What are we three years in change for 14 days to flatten the curve. This as we reflect on the failures of the administration's handling of the pandemic including lies from Dr. Fauci. Home Owner [00:00:22] I heard that. It doesn't hear it and it doesn't stop you from getting No so. Anthony Fauci [00:00:29] On the very, very, very rare chance that you do get it, even if you're vaccinated, it's a very you don't even feel sick. It's like you don't even know you got infected. Rob Finerty [00:00:39] Yeah, that. Okay. Here to discuss is certified Clinical Chiropractic neuro Neurologist and owner of Chalmers Wellness, Dr. Matt Chalmers. did i say that right? Dr Matt Chalmers [00:00:50] Chalmers Rob Finerty [00:00:51] Chalmers Okay, cool. All right. So, Doc, I got to say here, like, look, you want to get vaccinated, Fine. You want to wear a mask alone in your Prius also fine. However, when you force people to do something that they don't believe is medically right, and then you lie to them about it. What does that do to the process of actually ending a pandemic? Dr Matt Chalmers [00:01:10] Well, it doesn't help anything in the Pandemic, but it also destroys your credibility for anything else you want to talk about. And so that's that's one of the bigger issues with this, is that, you know, one, they're trying to take over ownership and domain of your body by demanding what you do and don't do it. That's the thing. Like you said, they're lying about the effectiveness of their medications. Rob Finerty [00:01:28] Mm-hmm. So yesterday we were joined by Jessie Jane Duff, who had some interesting points. On Dr. Fauci's tactics listen to this. Jessie Jane Duff [00:01:37] He didn't go to northwest D.C.. I'm a resident of D.C.. He went into the poorest area. He went into the predominantly minority area because they thought they could buy get people to take this vaccination. Jessie Jane Duff [00:01:49] African-Americans with the lowest population to take the vaccine because of why the government lies upon the Tuskegee experiment, where many African-Americans died as a result of an experiment. Jessie Jane Duff [00:02:00] And yet they did go to northwest D.C., where the prestigious people, even the elites, live. Of course not. Oh, let's not pay them. We will insult the intelligence of the lowest, the poverty ribbon or low-income people of Washington, D.C.. Disgraceful. Rob Finerty [00:02:15] I mean, she's got a point, Doc. I mean, you go into there thinking that you're going to push this, and that was the result. Dr Matt Chalmers [00:02:24] Well, the biggest thing is that they're trying to find people who don't have any information, which is not that hard, because they kept everybody from getting any information about this. You know, we've been treating it with quinine and hyperbaric oxygen. We've haven't lost a single person and yet nobody knows about that type of option because we weren't allowed to talk about it on social media. Rob Finerty [00:02:42] Wait, I'm saying is you've been treating people with Hyperbaric Chambers and it worked. Like, I consider myself an alternative health nut. Like, I don't even take aspirin. What is this? Dr Matt Chalmers [00:02:51] So what ends up happening is that you have two parts of of COVID, you have the respiratory issues, you have the vascular issue, the blood vessel part, the blood vessel part, the clamps down doesn't let enough blood and oxygen flow through. Dr Matt Chalmers [00:03:04] Quinine knocks the spike protein off the ACE2 receptor site, allows the blood vessels to dilate back up into the hyperbaric oxygen, increases oxygenation tissue by 1,000%. You can look all that up. That's what we've been using and we haven't lost anybody pulling people out of hospitals so that we could save our lives. Rob Finerty [00:03:21] So I'm actually I didn't even know about this this is unbelievable to me. So all this happens, you're not allowed to talk about it. You're a doctor because you know things about stuff when it comes to the Medical Field and you're said no, you can't. You can't do this? Dr Matt Chalmers [00:03:35] We post it online multiple times. We got taken down the funny thing is we never got put in Facebook jail or anything like that. It would just disappear within 10 minutes of being put up that figured this out four months into this pandemic. Rob Finerty [00:03:47] Wow. It's interesting that they wouldn't want therapy, you know, alternative treatment methods for all this. But they do want to talk about the Fifth Circuit Court. Okay. This has been a big thing. Rob Finerty [00:03:57] Could the federal government mandate its employees and obviously people who work for contractors that work for the federal government to get vaccinated? The Fifth Circuit Court came back and said, NO, you can't do that. You can't mandate this. Rob Finerty [00:04:12] Do you think that in some point enough people influence this on the public stage and said, Yeah, like if you want to get it cool, that's fine but if you don't, you shouldn't have to. Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:23] You know, I think that played a big role in it but the biggest piece about this is this decision isn't about medications or vaccines it's about who owns the person's body. Just because you're paying somebody doesn't mean you own that person. Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:35] So forcing them to take drugs is way outside the scope of employment. And so that's the piece we really need to focus on this the government thinks it owns you and can do whatever it wants to that's the bigger piece of this, not the vaccine part. Rob Finerty [00:04:47] Yeah, that's the crazier thing but at the same time, like going back to all these things, why do you think the government was so hesitant to address therapeutics like yours, like Ivermectin and things like this again? Let's say if you wanted to get the shot, go ahead. But if you also wanted to see your hyperbaric thing, which has a 100% survival rate. Why why do you think they didn't want people doing that? Dr Matt Chalmers [00:05:12] Well, because the biggest thing is that they had to get that use authorization for the vaccine, because as long as there's one treatment that's working out there, then they couldn't get emergency use authorization for the vaccine and that was the whole point. They had to get the Emergency Use Act for the vaccine so they didn't have to get it tested and they could roll out immediately. Rob Finerty [00:05:30] Well, Doctor, I appreciate what you do and I appreciate you speaking out and keep posting your stuff. We appreciate it. Dr. Matt Chalmers, thanks for being here.

If you've ever lost a job, or been through a breakup, or failed an exam, you'll know that the aftermath can be painful and disorienting. But for some percentage of those who experience these disappointing outcomes, unforeseen opportunities will arise.In this episode of Choiceology with Katy Milkman, we look at the occasional upside of being forced to quit a career, or a relationship, or even a favorite route to work.Kassia St. Clair brings us the story of William Henry Perkin. As a young man in 19th-century London, Perkin had set his sights on a career in chemistry and medicine. He devoted his time and energy to the search for a treatment for malaria, which was a growing problem around the world. Unfortunately, he failed in his quest, but his failure opened the door to a surprising new discovery that transformed an entire industry.Kassia St. Clair is a design journalist and the author of The Secret Lives of Color. Next, Annie Duke joins Katy to explain how events like a shutdown of the London subway system, or the COVID-19 pandemic, can sometimes surface new and previously unexplored options. She also discusses how our identities can be wrapped up in our choices, blinding us to alternatives that may actually serve us better.Annie Duke is a speaker and decision strategist. She's also the author of How to Decide: Simple Tools for Making Better Choices. Finally, Katy explains that while giving up on important jobs, relationships, or habits may not always be the best option, the behavioral bias of escalation of commitment can cause us to experiment and explore too little in life.Choiceology is an original podcast from Charles Schwab. If you enjoy the show, please leave a rating or review on Apple Podcasts.Important DisclosuresAll expressions of opinion are subject to change without notice in reaction to shifting market conditions.The comments, views, and opinions expressed in the presentation are those of the speakers and do not necessarily represent the views of Charles Schwab. Data contained herein from third-party providers is obtained from what are considered reliable sources.

“A Complete History Of Dreams” Alright, so Philip Stevenson has made some of my favorite albums of all time. I first heard his band Carnival Of Souls when I was 19 and that album, which is called Flop, is in my top ten of all time. Stevenson is one of the most consistent, thrilling and rousing singer songwriters out there and yeah, a lot of critics compared him to Westerberg or Elliott Smith and to be fair, those comparisons are not off the mark. But let's not stop there. Stevenson is a songwriter of breathtaking talent—his compositions range from snarling rockers to ragged waltzes and like a great painter, each of his numbers have texture and nuance that unfold layer after layer with each repeated listen. Stevenson played in Quinine after Carnival of Souls broke up and after that band called it a day, he started putting out staggeringly great solo albums one after the other. From Starless to Azalea, Stevenson's work aches with longing, rings with precision and shines with night-kissed melodies and soaring choruses. His new three disc set A Complete History Of Dreams is a powerful triptych of windswept numbers like High For The Weekend, fuzzy rockers like Rachel I'm Sorry About Your eyes and the endlessly lovely Everybody's An Ocean which will make you feel like being lost at sea is about the most beautiful thing the world can offer. Of the set, Stevenson says, “The last few years for everyone were like a bad dream—we all had to turn them into art in order to adore them…” www.nighworldrecords.bandcamp.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.bombshellradio.com www.alexgreenonline.com Stereo Embers: Twitter: @emberseditor IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

On this episode of the Post Podcast, Fort Hays State University's Glen McNeil shares information about fresh veggies on National Fresh Veggie Day.   Transcript: EDITORS NOTE: Transcripts are provided by an automated service and are not verified for accuracy.   James Bell  Fresh veggies day is an opportunity to explore fresh veggies for naysay universities. Glenn McNeil joins us to talk a little bit about that. And more on this episode of the Post Podcast.   Glen McNeil  June 16. Every year is also national fresh batch.   James Bell  That's probably a little healthier than well,   Glen McNeil  very few people know that. Oh, because the first thing if you type in what is June 16, it comes up as national budget. Yeah, you know, nobody really looks any further.   James Bell  Exactly. I got my excuse for the day. I'm gonna go eat some fudge and celebrate today.   Glen McNeil  There's there's a few other things too. I'm not. Sometimes you so okay, I'm not a big fan. Butterscotch fudge. I like marshmallow fudge.   James Bell  I like yeah, the creamy.   Glen McNeil  Yeah, I don't really like nuts. A lot of people like nuts and fudge. And I do like to take fudge and take an old cheese shredder. Shredded real fine. Put it on ice cream, and put marshmallow cream on top of the ice cream. So yes, I do eat fudge. Okay, not a lot. I eat more fresh vegetables than I do fudge.   James Bell  And that's what everybody should do. Yeah, more vegetables than more than more vegetables than fudge   Glen McNeil  but nothing wrong with you know, eating some foods as we've always talking here. Moderation and all things you know, include a little bit of everything you like in your diet, in essence, what you eat, but at the same time, focus a little more on the more healthful items like vegetables and being national fresh vegetables. You know, that's the kicker in this is that encourage people to eat fresh vegetables. We have frozen, which are excellent quality, we have canned, which are very good quality. Okay, we have dehydrated vegetables these days, which are they fit well in soups and things like that, that you want to make that have a lot of liquid, but it's still pretty hard to beat the taste, the texture, the mouthfeel of fresh vegetables, you know, so So that's, that's a big one. When we look at it. There's four, there's lots of vegetables. I mean, the list, depending upon how you categorize things is huge. But there's four major types. When we look at vegetables, we've got root vegetables, okay, and root vegetable would be what's the root vegetable, always think of potatoes. Okay, potatoes is an example of a root vegetable, because what you're actually eating is part of the root. In most cases, you're eating the starch, which is the sugar the plant has stored for continued growth. So that's in so when it comes up the next year, it will come up so that root vegetables is basically it's the underground part of the plant that we consume. Okay, and many of them are I mean carrots is a standby that vegetable, beets if you if you like beets turnips,   James Bell  I was I went to the farmers market the other day and talking with a couple of vendors, I know there and they had some beats. And I don't know that I've ever had them. They but they pushed him on me and said you got to take these home and try him because if you if the only thing you've ever experienced, it's like pickled beets, you might not be a fan, but there's so many other things you can do with them. Yes.   Glen McNeil  Sweet beets. Excellent. Make in terms of pickled beets is not not that difficult to do. So you know, that's, that's what you you get with those onions fit into root vegetables you know, of course and so, so we get that root vegetables are okay, since they're a vegetable they are plant product. They do contain they're primarily starch, but they do contain a small amount of protein. But what's big today is red vegetables contain no gluten. So you'll see root vegetables advertised as a part of a healthy free gluten diet. Well, they never did contain gluten, they don't contain. So that's that's really not not a big deal. Red vegetables, overall good sources of vitamin A. Many of them are good sources of vitamin C. Of course, they're they're great sources of fiber, which can benefit all of us and many of them have high potassium value, which is good for the heart, okay and circulation and I mean muscle contraction, another group of things, okay. Then then we have what we call the cruciferous vegetables. Most people know the cruciferous vegetables as gas formers. Because when you eat a surface festivals, your body tends to produce a lot of gas. Okay, they're, they're a rather large groups are the diverse, most of most people think of broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, okay, when they think of the cruciferous vegetables, which you've got kale, you've got bok choy, which both kale and bok choy can easily be purchased in grocery stores these days. And they're kales like a leafy product. But bok choy is a type of cabbage that is not quite as, say bitter as regular cabbages and it's more in the shape of celery than what we consider to be head of cabbage. It's really easy to work with brussel sprouts. Good Good what not too many people around here eat but when we lived in in Kentucky and when my son lived in Louisiana collards were big and you hear used to hear collard greens well, okay, they're also greens and they're also cruciferous vegetables. It's a it's a bitter type of leaf that you cook kind of long lines of spinach. Okay, and in terms that depends on what you do with it, watercress, things like that, and I did bring you since it is fresh vegetable today. I did bring you a cruciferous vegetable out of my garden. Okay, I'm not much of a garden out of my garden that I have been. We have been eating ready. And just to show you that it is oh wow festival. I picked it right before we came and I washed it   James Bell  was washed so I can eat this wash. This is a good looking.   Glen McNeil  It is a what   James Bell  is it? Well, I think it's a radish, sir. Okay, it's already circular. To judge your radish. It   Glen McNeil  always depends on it depends on how you plan them and when you pick up Yeah, as to how they grow.   James Bell  Yeah, I've never had a fresh garden radish. I love radishes. I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna bite into our air.   Glen McNeil  Now, everybody listening Did you hear that crunch when he brought it into it? Okay, that vegetables should be what we call crisp tender. They should have a Christmas and a crunch time. Now what do you think of my radish? That is a spicy radish. Yes it is. I like that. That's the good part about the variety that that I planted in. Anybody can go radishes I have a tub that is two feet by four feet. And I filled it with garden soil and I put roses in it and I've watered and I grow radishes in my little tub. As I go through and I pick out a row I just dropped more seeds in and then I pick out a row so I didn't have to fill up a whole bunch of the garden I got it in a spot that's full sun can water you know the watering can easy to groove so growing many root vegetables is not a difficult process. You simply have to have something deep enough that allows the root to to develop good carrots grown in my in my radish garden could only be about maybe two inches deeper than that. But yeah, so radishes are now these cruciferous vegetables are lots of different colors so they add variety to your diet in color. Okay, as you look at that thing and so many some of the root vegetables do this to cruciferous vegetables, good sources of both vitamins and minerals, especially one great mineral is white is folate, okay, which is good for ourselves is as we age, especially good for developing fetal cells, regeneration of cells, folate or folic acid. So the cruciferous vegetables are high in that there also many of them are good sources of vitamin K. Okay, which is the vitamin, you know, Vitamin K does a lot of different things in the body. The biggest thing that most people know is that it helps with blood clotting. Okay, so you know, we have that particular process. They've got vitamin C in them, they've got some vitamin A in them. They're also the group that's biggest in what we call the phytonutrients. And we've talked about phytonutrients and phytochemicals here before and these are, these are not nutrients like vitamins and minerals. They're chemical compounds. They're plant compounds that our body uses for its benefit. They give us some anti carcinogenic properties, they, they help deal with antioxidant, they help ourselves recover. So they're used in metabolism, but they're not vitamins and minerals. So it's kind of a different type of thing that we do. Many of the cruciferous vegetables can help lower inflammation. Okay, so you know, we find that and again, again, they're rich in fiber. Okay, so as you eat both root and cruciferous vegetables, they can help you feel fuller, consume less food overall. Right? And they have some natural sugars in them, but not not a lot. That is cruciferous vegetables are often called gasp producing vegetables. And what causes that and people and especially when you look at broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower. All the time. I can't eat that good. Yes, me. Yes. Okay, well, that comes from a sugar, right? And it's a sugar called raffinose. Right? It is a sugar that not very sweet. We would really use it for anything else. But it's, it's part of the carbohydrate structure in the plant. Right the plant uses it stores it uses it for growth, we do not have the ability to convert raffinose and use it for energy by our body like we can sucrose or or table sugar or glucose, blood sugar, we can't do that. So what happens is the raffinose stage in your gut, right? And it goes pretty much kind of through the stomach, a little bit of activity in the stomach passes through the small intestine bacteria starts to operate on it gets into the large intestine. And what the bacteria in the large intestine does is it breaks everything else down and we get the last nutrients. Well this bacteria in this nice warm, moist environment feeds on raffinose and produces large amounts of gas Yes. So you have gas and you'll feel bloated. Now, most of the time, gas from these types of products is non odorous. Okay? And it's very difficult to control the release of the gas because it's like, Okay, here's a small pocket of raffinose going through the intestinal going through the large intestine. And this bacteria sees it jumps all over it, breaks it down and produces gas very quickly. Okay, so you feel bloated, and you got to release it. So I can't use to say, Grandma toots. My mother consumed a very high fiber diet, just health wise and Yes, Grandma, you know, achieve always left. So, you know, we find out and we see that so, you know, we read vegetables, cruciferous vegetables, then we have a big category called greens. Right? And greens are   James Bell  everything else. Well, that's what like lettuce and I   Glen McNeil  put they're called greens because they're, well, green primary. Yes, yeah. We're primarily grant make sense. Okay. So in in a way, you could say that radish has greens on cook those radish tops, we really wouldn't want to they're kind of bitter. You know, so we want to do that. But, you know, when we look at greens, it's, it's collard greens, which are also part of cruciferous for root vegetables. It's just eating the different parts of the vegetable. Okay, and that's where the Greens come from kale, mustard greens, chard, bok choy that the Chinese cabbage fits in that too. So because you eat different parts of it. Okay, so when you eat the top, you're eating the greens, when you eat the bottom, you're eating the right. And you can't do that with all vegetables. Okay, you can do that with some but you can't do that with all this. Okay, there's another product out that's been out round for years generations known as rocket and it's actually argument. Okay, and it is it's a leaf off of a product or a plant that how do I say this? It's got a mustard. If you ever mix mustard and pepper together and toss in a little tiny bit of white vinegar, it's kind of what it tastes like. So it's sweetened bitter at the same time. It's used as a topping for salads. We don't most people don't buy much of it. You probably have to go ask for it here and I don't know whether anybody would have okay from from that. And then you're good right now. Got in your yard field over there and pick some dandelion greens. I have   James Bell  a friend he swears by dandelions he loves He says they're great for the soil. They're great for you. You can eat it all and he doesn't eat a lot of them I don't think anyway but but he loves growing them he will plant his yard with dandelions.   Glen McNeil  You can harvest dandelion greens and that's fine you just got to be make sure if you're gonna go somewhere and pick him that nobody sprayed anything Yeah. Okay, so yeah, red vegetables cruciferous vegetables and greens. Okay, then we have the last and there are other categories these are the four major categories I like that it's a group called Nightshade. Okay and people have heard of nightshade vegetables and the most famous of all the nightshade vegetables and not even a vegetable Oh yeah. The most famous of all nightshade vegetables is not even a vegetable in in many and not I want to say Mideast What do you call it mid times you know back in the old days of castles and kings and fives. Okay, these were thought to be poisonous. They're red and color.   James Bell  Radishes No I'm just kidding this tomatoes I know this one.   Glen McNeil  But you know what? Tomato tomato is a fruit.   James Bell  Okay, because the seeds are on the inside right since grow it   Glen McNeil  comes from blossom. And it's different on how it comes from the blossom. Okay, it goes behind and the seeds the the meat of the product surrounds the seed. When that happens we actually have a fruit okay, that fits in that category. So we have fruits and vegetables that fit into the nightshade group. Okay, and the nightshade group has its its name because many of them are very flavorful. Okay and whatever they are, and they are products that tend to grow better overnight that they do during the day. So the name nightshade came around came around what because they thought there was some sort of an holy thing going on with this plant where it would grow overnight but would grow during the day like all the rest of the plants are growing right so became a Nightshade. That's, I mean, that's folklore. sure that when they do grow better at night, if you ever watch your check your tomatoes or anything, you get up in the morning and there's blossoms all over, you know or something like that. These products grow better as temperature cools down, and then they reserve their moisture for the day. Now nightshade vegetables eggplants an example of a nightshade vegetable potatoes are actually an example but it fits in many other categories. Probably the most recognized one today are peppers all the different varieties of peppers fit within the nightshade vegetables. Now there's also one that most people don't think about and that's tobacco. Okay, but oh yeah, we don't eat tobacco you can try   James Bell  I'm curious now what tobacco actually tastes like if you're eat some well it's   Glen McNeil  it's not a fruit. It's not a vegetable. It's a nightshade plant. It grows better through the night. Okay, so but it fits I always thought that was interesting. I don't eat okay for that. Now the other thing about nightshade plants is that they contain most of the nightshade plants contain some form of what we call an alkaloid. Okay, and out alkaloid? How do I want to put this? There are chemicals similar to proteins but a little different? Okay, and they're high in nitrogen. Okay, well, that's the nitrogen composition. With everything else that's in this alkaloid that has an effect upon the human body. Okay. And, and what we find is they're kind of medicinal, we can make a lot of medicinal things out of Morphe is made from a nightshade alkaloid. As an example of what we fit in there. Quinine is another product that fits into that. So we, you know, we see this and so as this goes on, we find that some of these alkaloids also fit into the phytonutrients category, where they can give us some protective aspects against cancers. So it's, I mean, it's good for us and in terms of that, but it can also be bad for us. If you get too much they can cause headaches. They can cause bitter taste in foods and cause gastric upset, nausea, diarrhea, and in most cases, you can identify when a a dark colored plant gets this potatoes are famous for this. You pick up a potato and it's got green circle or green spots all over people who say Well, that's sunburn tomato. Oh, yeah, it's kind of a suppose. But what that is, is that contains because of the chemical interactions that have occurred, that contains an alcohol alkaloid called solid, the green part of the tomato, that's what can make you sick. Okay, so if you ate lots of green potatoes, now, you could peel that part of the skin into potato, lay and cut it away and use the rest of the potato and that's fine. Now, you're not going to get this from eating one or two green potatoes, okay, you'd have to eat quite a bit or you'd have to eat quite a bit of a of a vegetable that's showing this process. So those are our four main categories that we look at when we buy when we fix vegetables and so for this, okay, and I brought you a fresh vegetable from my garden. Okay to show you how much I appreciate you and also when I appreciate you so well thank you but I wanted somebody else to teach you one of my hot radishes. Yeah, it's good. So first first step in using fresh vegetables. Make sure once you buy or pick are not bruised or damaged. Look them over carefully. Now it always drives me nuts when you go in and people are feeling all the with all the different vegetables and everything but you know you don't want things that have soft spots in them and they should be firm all the way round. This color slices that type of thing. Don't buy him if they're bruised or damaged. Second thing is clean. Wash your hands with soap and water. Then wash your vegetables right your vegetables off with water. There's all these vegetable rinses and washes out there you can use what what most of the science tells us is there not a whole lot better than water. In terms what many of them are is they're really really heavily diluted bleach. Okay, so the even if you read some off of those, you still gotta rinse them off with water. So just make sure you rinse them off good. And actually a little vegetable brush like I pulled out of ground I get a little vegetable rush put it in some running water and brush it off and slice the top off at the bottom and it's ready to eat. Okay from from that process. So watch that. Alright Third, when you go through this process, when you shop, okay or when you go to the farmers market to buy, separate what you purchase. Here we get into also into the preparation. We've talked in here a number of times about cross contamination, keep fresh vegetables away from raw meats, raw poultry, raw anything, handle them separately. Go to the grocery store watching when they get their groceries they put the most of them are very careful about it. Sometimes they aren't. They put the chicken in the bottom and then dump in the fresh vegetables on top of it. I always say at what my meats in separate bags. I want my chicken in one bag, my beef and another bag. I don't want anything else in the bag with bags, things like that at the grocery store. keep them separate at home. Okay, don't use a cutting board for raw meats. And then put raw vegetables on your cutting board. Okay, and then serve. Just be safe you know, watch for the content elimination. Cooking is the same thing. Now cooking with vegetables. You want vegetables to be what we call all dented. Chris, tender, green, fresh green beans that are cooked until they're mushy and fall apart or overcooked. A lot of people like them that way but they're over cooked. Okay from that so boiling, steaming boiling, you know for a short period of time steaming, microwave, great way to go. Okay when you're cooking fresh vegetables if you're gonna cook, and many times cooking helps break down some of the raffinose Vegetable so it will help make cabbage less gas producing. It will, it will in many cases cooking vegetables creates milder flavors within the vegetables. If you've ever fresh broccoli and cooked fresh broccoli, there is a definite difference in the taste. Okay, of those two products, even if they're both annulled, right. Okay, step five, chill things. If you bring a bunch of vegetables in the garden from the garden, or bring them home from the store and you wash them off, put them in the refrigerator, bag them up, you know, wrap them in a towel bowl, with water out, whatever, put them back in your frigerator keep them chilled, just helps prevent any bacterial growth or anything that can occur around them. And most fresh vegetables that are chilled, still have good flavor. Some of the flavors get a little bit better as they warm up kind of like cheese. Okay, but some still still do that. And then I'm gonna go back to when in doubt, throw it out. If you're not sure how old it is, if it's sat out on the counter for a vegetable dip or something for a couple of hours, good idea to pitch it, you know, because of contamination you're dealing with a raw food product here. Okay, so you just want to do that. You know, if you've had something if you're not going to cook it if it's been in contact with raw if you're going to serve it Ron it's been in contact with Rami you messed up, well cook it don't kill the bacteria, okay, you cook it but be very careful. And we just tell people do that around around holiday time. Fresh vegetables cleaned, put in the refrigerator will keep for many will keep for a week and maintain their freshness. I always put my radishes in a bowl of water and set them in the refrigerator and they'll stay crisp and fresh for about six days. Okay, they don't last six days because I eat them all. Okay, but you know, in terms of like that, and I, I don't think you can beat the flavor of many of the fresh vegetables out there to take a green or a yellow pepper and just wash it, see it, slice it up and stack on it. Now for a lot of people that's a lot of spice, but I think that that makes a good taste. And then nothing better to me than ever daily onion, peeled cooldown peeled, sliced it nice big round pieces. And then you put a piece of sharp cheddar cheese on top of their daily onion and sharp cheddar cheese, or just eat an onion like an apple. People don't like that. lettuce leaves. You know, if you're looking for a way to lighten sandwich meals, lettuce leaves make great replacement for bread. Oh yeah, I love doing that. Cook a hamburger patty and put your hamburger patty between two lettuce leaves and, and whatever whatever else you want it and it really makes a nice little pocket and the same is true with camis leaves. So lots of fresh vegetables. They're coming into their own. You know I look my cucumbers. My cucumber plants have got little cucumbers on them about two inches long already. My tomato plants are covered in blooms but no, no tomatoes yet. By being planets are growing. It's early for beans I plant. I'm trying I've never planted beans before. So I played in pole beans this year. So I got these big pots scattered around the yard being planted poles sticking up and up. That's how I garden I don't really have it all in the ground, I think big pots and bends around. That works. Yeah. So it works but Grow Your Own go to the farmers market, buy them into grocery store. They're, they're great, you know, and he's right now you can go into grocery store, you can buy a platter of clean vegetables, you know fresh vegetables that you can snack on. And they make great snacks for people. Absolutely. I hope people enjoy them all summer long. You know, just be smart, be safe. Eat the ones you really like and occasionally buy one you've never had before. Look, look up how to prepare it. Okay, that's always important. Sometimes the vegetable preparation is not as standard as we think. And then sample it. You know, and if you don't like it raw, chop it up. Toss it in the skillet, a little olive oil on a top little onion with salt and pepper crack couple eggs in it. Sprinkle some cheddar cheese on it. And you got a nice little mix of vegetables you did like most with eggs and cheese you do like There you go. So have a great summer.

How to Design Experiences that Exceed Your Customer's Expectations Shep Hyken interviews Ian Johnston, Founder of Quinine, a leading strategic retail design consultancy devoted to the power of design that drives innovation and growth. He talks about building trust and loyalty by designing meaningful customer engagement.  Top Takeaways:    ·      A smart shopper is more than a way to describe a segment of your customers. Every customer seeks value whether they are buying luxury goods or everyday items. Smart shoppers take their past experiences and compare them to the experiences they have with you. ·      The Value Gap is when a customer feels that they are getting more than they paid for. When they get more benefits than the price, this is when customer satisfaction is highest. ·      Value is constantly changing. Each customer segment looks at different aspects of value differently. They may value price, quantity, brand virtues, sustainability, or the look and feel of a store. You have to move with your customers as their expectations of value change. To exceed their expectations, you have to meet them first. ·      Customer service, virtues, and values will differentiate your brand. In retail, you can use your store to bring your company's virtues and values to life by promoting and reinforcing the value proposition in your marketing campaigns. ·      The customer's baseline expectations are shaped by society. If you don't meet the expectations of the customer and that of the community, you will get left behind. Quote:  "Our expectations aren't necessarily set by our competitors. They are set by everything that happens in the world."

In this episode Blaise Delfino talks with Dr. Dave Fabry, Chief Innovation Officer at Starkey.His Journey to AudiologyDr. Fabry planned to be a veterinarian, however, he found his fellow students in the pre-vet curriculum to be extremely competitive. He learned of a discipline known as experimental psychology while doing the job of a chinchilla tester in college. The anatomy of the chinchilla's ears is very similar to that of human ears. While he was a master's student at Mayo Clinic, he worked with patients who had hearing and balance disorders. That's when he decided to go into audiology. He wanted to help patients. He went on to get a PhD and became a researcher. Patient Driven FocusDr. Fabry says inventions only become innovations when they make an impact on the market. The features most people want from hearing aids is audibility for speech and sound quality, in quiet and listening environments; reduction in background noise, using noise suppression and directional microphones; and spatial awareness. Clinicians can test patients' spatial awareness by having the patient close his/her eyes and move around quietly and ask the patient “Where am I?” For patients with low visibility, the inability to locate sound can be life threatening. Helping the WorldDr. Fabry is licensed in Minnesota, Florida and Rwanda. He has traveled to Rwanda to help people there by providing hearing instruments. Many people there get malaria and are treated with quinine. Quinine is ototoxic, so even many children have significant hearing loss. In addition to providing hearing aids, Starkey goes into countries and develops a community of support. Wearers have a place to go to learn how to change batteries and care for their aids. Nevertheless, in most countries, even if people have a hearing insurance benefit, only 50 percent of them wear hearing aids. There is still a stigma surrounding hearing loss.Speech in NoisePatients usually first notice they're having a hearing problem when they are in noisy environments. Dr. Fabry says he advises all clinicians to do speech in noise testing. Many say they don't have time; however, it is imperative to a proper fitting to do speech in noise testing, along with quiet testing.Automatic classification of noise by the hearing aids is only 80 percent effective. By giving the patient the ability to choose which sounds he wants to hear via an app, it closes the gap of the remaining 20 percent. The hearing instruments scan the environment for speech and noise at the rate of 55 adjustments every hour. During the pandemic, Starkey hearing instruments helped patients hear someone who was wearing a mask. Telehealth is BornIn the early ‘90s Mayo Clinic in Minnesota set up a secure teleconferencing system that allowed clinicians to speak to colleagues at their institutions in Florida and Arizona. During the pandemic, when audiologists were considered non-essential and were shuttered, many used telehealth to help their patients. Minor adjustments to hearing aids make up a third of patients in audiology practices. Telehealth appointments can take care of these. Patients on vacations or patients who don't go out in bad weather can always use telehealth. Family members and caretakers can be present during a telehealth visit. During the pandemic patients with profound hearing loss, who rely on lip reading, could talk to their audiologists via the computer and be able to see the providers' lips. Dr. Fabry encourages all clinicians to use telehealth when it's appropriate. In person appointments are still necessary for first fittings and follow ups and for many other patients, however.

It is now the 1800's, and besides the accidental spreading of diseases between Polynesian and Pacific Islander cultures through contact with Europeans, the 19th century was pretty quiet on the Bioweapon front until a history defining conflict towards the later part of the century and that was The American Civil War.  The use of Biological components in warfare was rampant in during The Civil War, both the North and the South used Bioweapons against one another in the hopes that germs and diseases would give them the advantage over the enemy. We will look at how both the North and South used differing and cunning strategies to turn the tide of the war. The North restricted the Souths access to medical supplies through the Union Blockade aka the Anaconda Plan. While The South Tried to spread disease to the North in the diabolical Yellow Fever Plot masterminded by the brilliant but mad Dr. Blackburn. Also looked at will be the restriction of the life saving medication Quinine and how the South struggled to find a substitute when supplies run low due to the Unions Blockade of the South. https://thetruthtank.podbean.com https://www.facebook.com/ThetruthTank/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrhX1ZqvZx_xM59bk-tRa6Q

Welcome to a special episode of the marketing and cocktails podcast, because we are celebrating international gin and tonic day. So I am going to bring two recipes to you all today, which are a spin on the traditional gin and tonic, which is just a combination of ice, gin, tonic water and lime. So super simple drink. [00:01:00] these are some twist that I found that I have really, I really enjoy lately. So I'm sharing them with you. So the first it's going to be, be a take on the gin, Ricky, which is really, really similar to the gin and tonic. It's just a combination of Jan Aline and club soda. So. I stumbled upon this recipe a while ago, and I've kind of been making it a little bit nonstop even as we transition seasons because guys I'm in Georgia and the season just don't really change that heavily. We are in and the myths of what they call false fall. So it is a whopping I think today, 75 degrees. So. This take on the gin. Ricky is going to include a frozen linemate concentrate. [00:02:00] The ones that you get in your normal grocery store that come in a little, the little tin, I think that's what they're called, like little, tin. They almost remind me of the same container that you get, canned biscuits in, but you all know what I'm talking about. So. It is that your gen of choice. And the last couple of times I've been using the London dry gin and that works really nicely. And then this recipe calls for clips soda. Now I normally don't have club soda on hand, but recently my husband has really been into seltzer waters, which they're all pretty similar tonic water, adds in the. Quinine or Quinine guys don't. Get me started on pronunciations, but that has that addition and title water. then you have clubs, soda, and seltzer water, and they're all different versions of carbonated water with their own additions. So [00:03:00] I feel like they're pretty interchangeable. So I have you sell salt water. I've used plain seltzer water. Or, we have gotten a little fancy and we have had a cucumber melon, seltzer water, or lemon line, seltzer water. All of them are really great additions. so this one just includes one and a half ounces of gin. Two tablespoons of the frozen Limeade and then four ounces of club, soda, or seltzer water, or even tonic water. whatever you decide to use, you are just going to combine the gin and the frozen line made in a, the recipe. Cause it put it in the shaker. I'm going to be honest guys. I was a little bit lazy and I didn't even want to do that. So I had to do two tablespoons of lie made into, a tall glass. Then I. added in ice. And then I added in my Jane stirred that together and then just poured the seltzer [00:04:00] right on top and start that one more time. And it turned out really delicious and refreshing. But if you want to go. just by the book you're going to combine the gin in the frozen lemonade is shaker. We're going to shake that up, pour it over ice and a tall glass. And then top with, again, like I said, soda club, soda, tonic, water, or seltzer water. And then if you want to be really fancy garnish with a little twist of line. so that is the first recipe. And then the second one is I've had gin and tonics. And they were okay, but I felt like I wanted just the little different flavor profile, but similar. So what I decided to do is add in grapefruit juice. So the normal kind of ratio for gin and tonics, depending on your level, level of preference, if you really, really love [00:05:00] alcohol and you wanted a little on the heavy side, That send me some days, or if you want to go a little bit lighter, you can just do one Oh one. well, one Oh one is probably going to give you right in the middle of road, or you could do one to three. So one part Jan to three parts tonic. or some people do a two to four guys. You just have to kind of play around with it and see which measurement kind of gives you the preface that you like, the palatable kind of tastes that you can kind of handle and the alcohol level that you, so what I did was added, I did about a week, one to one ratio of everything. So one part grapefruit juice to one part, gin. Okay. And then we tried a grapefruit mango seltzer water, and that one was really tasty. And I did that on top and then just, added, I just use actually a low ball glass cause that's, what I just kind of grabbed. So I put ice in that, out at the grill fruit, the [00:06:00] gin, and then a seltzer water. Gave it a little quick stir and guys again, a really easy refreshing take on a normal gin and tonic. So. I want you to try these guys, celebrate today as international diatonic day. if you do try these recipes, please let me know, and I will have the recipe below for everyone to try. So again, guys, thanks for coming and joining me today on today's episode. And I was really glad to share. Two favorite two of my favorite, gin recipes. Thanks for listening.

The intersection between botany and medicine ft. Dr. Aidan Kaye Bark of the willow tree is turned into Aspirin. Bark of the Cinchona Tree is turned into Quinine- the anti-malarial drug you enjoy in your average gin and tonic. Tonic water is sugar mixed with cinchona bark. But British colonizers liked to get drunk while they medicated themselves from the parasites spread by the mosquitoes of India. The main premise of the episode is that bugs eat plants and die BECAUSE they are small. But a certain arthropod used to be GIGANTIC. 400 million years ago, scorpions used to be three feet long. And like all scorpions, they glow under UV light. I for one welcome out glowing scorpion overlords. But our atmosphere needs A LOT more oxygen to bring them back. Plant a tree. Listen to our episode about planting trees to learn more. Pour yourself a nice G&T and enjoy. For more of Dr. Aidan Kaye follow @TroveoftheSacred on Instagram

PSA:  Please don't stick things in your ear any larger than your elbow...and that includes your finger. Review Outer ear = the part that you can touch Middle ear = the area being the ear drum Inner ear = the cochlea and area responsible for your balance 3 common ear problems Ear infections (otitis media) Vertigo (and motion sickness) Tinnitus (ringing in your ear) Callback *Ear wax Ear Infections The area behind your ear drum has air in it and that pressure is equalized through the eustachian tube.  If that area gets fluid in it, that fluid can grow bacteria and that leads to infection.  The natural motion of opening and closing your jaw helps massage the eustachian tubes and moves air in and out (like when you fly or drive in the mountains and you chew gum or yawn). Cold and allergies can be the source of the fluid build up that leads to ear infection.  You may have decreased hearing, pain, decreased balance - infection can require antibiotics. Vertigo This is the sensation of spinning, dizziness, being off balance The semi-circular canals are responsible for your balance.  If it get sloshed too much, or doesn't level out exactly right, then the signals sent to the brain may translate to being off balance even though your body is upright.  The signal confusion is what can lead to nausea (it's not actually happening in your stomach - at least not until you vomit!) The fluid moving around in these canals are why kids can induce dizziness when they spin around in circles (think about the clothes in your washer during the spin cycle - they get pushed to the outside). Medications  for vertigo are the same as some medications for nausea - plus they have drowsy side effects, so maybe you just sleep it off. There are many suspected causes, but nothing definite or proven. Tinnitus Defined as ringing, buzzing, roaring, whooshing sound when nothing is actually making that noise. Causes: hearing loss (either due to aging or exposure to loud noises); high blood pressure (pulsating); medications One theory: the hairs in the cochlea are damaged so those frequencies of sound (usually high pitched sounds) can't be picked up anymore; the brain fills in the gaps with "made up sound".  This is NOT PROVEN! High blood pressure can cause you to hear the blood pulsing through the blood vessels in your ears. Medications that causing ringing in the ears Aspirin (acute over-use) Aminoglycosides (i.e. Gentamicin = antibiotic) - it has a small therapeutic window, too much can lead to ear damage, it stopped in time, permanent ear damage can be avoided Quinine = usually asked for to help leg cramps, also medically prescribed to prevent malaria.  Can only be readily consumed by drinking tonic water. Flavonoids are put in vitamins and advertised to help tinnitus.  Flavonoids are phytonutrients (nutrients you get from plants).  These nutrients can't grow the hairs back in the cochlea.  Most of the vitamins and nutrients in the flavonoid vitamins have anti-oxidative properties, but I doubt that tinnitus is a major oxidation problem. Audience Question Can being slapped over time cause ringing in the ears? Being bopped in the face and head can probably cause permanent damage to the structures on the inside and outside of your head.  Being hit in the side of the head can cause pressure build-up in the ear where the air causes the ear drum to rupture (like "boxing" the ears). Slaps to the face (like "you jerk!" kind of slaps) don't usually cause ear problems, but punches or slaps to the side of the head near or on the ears can possibly cause damage. Prevent ear problems: be nice to your ears!
