Here's Episode 82 of Michigan's premier progressive podcast! It's another week.  That means it's another episode of the Republican Crime Syndicate! Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel announced several charges against former Michigan Republican state House Speaker Lee Chatfield, and his wife, Stephanie, for operating a criminal enterprise! Just like Chatfield's hero, Dear Leader Trump, he will soon find himself in a courtroom. And Chatfield also finds himself following in the footsteps of fellow Republican state House Speaker, Rick Johnson!  This is the Law & Order party? But while some policymakers work on finding ways to enrich themselves, there are many Michiganders working hard to enrich the lives of others.  One good example is the Rx Kids program in Flint, which provides a no-strings attached cash allowances to mothers and their babies. Other countries have provided similar programs, and experienced success with fewer premature births, improved cognitive development for infants, and more. The program is a mix of public and private funds, and Governor Gretchen Whitmer is providing more money as part of her 2025 budget proposal. It's about transforming the social contract to expand opportunities for hard-working Michiganders.  Dr. H. Luke Shaefer is the co-director of the Rx Kids program. Dr. Shaefer is a professor of social justice, social policy and public policy at the University of Michigan, and he gives us insight into Rx Kids, and what it ultimately hopes to achieve.  And the "Last Call" applauds the Rx Kids program in Flint, and how we hope the program expands to other areas of the state of Michigan. It's a pro-family initiative, and it's a common sense initiative!

Here is a short written version of the fructose story in tandem with the podcast with Dr. Rick Johnson where we go deep. We are going to discuss the survival switch and fructose metabolism in specific as it relates to pregnancy. It will be another life changing discussion for many of us. Fructose is the natural sugar found in fruit, honey and root vegetables. Historically, humans consumed fructose in these natural whole foods and did so moderately. Since the 1970's, there has been a major rise in fructose consumption, primarily as a beverage.... Also, a discussion of fiber and neurodevelopment as well as a review of the book the Carpenter and the Gardener by Alison Gopnik. Enjoy, Dr. M

As a professor of medicine at the University of Colorado, his expertise extends far beyond the confines of academia. His groundbreaking research on sugar and fructose has unraveled the intricate web connecting these sweet substances to obesity, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease.  Today, we delve deep into the latest research on the complex interrelationship between Alzheimer's and fructose, exploring the role of inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and insulin resistance. We untangle the mysteries surrounding Alzheimer's, the sixth leading cause of death, and discover how the survival switch within our bodies can predispose us to insulin resistance, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease. Our conversation also explores the differences between high fructose corn syrup and naturally occurring fructose in sugar, the impact of processed salt versus more natural alternatives, the significance of hydration, and the profound effects of the standard American diet. We also examine the intriguing connection between alcohol, sugar, mood, and fructose-induced behaviors, shedding light on the role of uric acid and its contribution to impulsivity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.  Join us for an enlightening discussion on multiple health issues as Dr. Rick Johnson imparts his knowledge and wisdom. Prepare to be enlightened and empowered as we embark on this transformative journey!

Photo credit: REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/Pool But of course Mark and Jeff weigh in on the first indictments handed down against career criminal Donald Trump. Their focus: the potential political impact on Michigan (site of one of the nation's first presidential primaries)…and on the multiple criminal investigations into prominent Michigan Republicans. Also this week: In 1866, New York state surrogate Gideon John Tucker wrote in a decision on a legal malpractice claim: "No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session." The Michigan legislature is in recess right now so all is safe, and gives us time to ruminate on what may be the most important election in 2023: the flipping of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Also on our agenda this week: the stampede of Red States to attack transgender Americans, and the politics of what looks to be a temporary income tax cut in Michigan. =========================== This week's podcast is underwritten in part by EPIC-MRAEPIC ▪ MRA is a full service survey research firm with expertise in: • Public Opinion Surveys • Market Research Studies • Live Telephone Surveys • On-Line and Automated Surveys • Focus Group Research • Bond Proposals - Millage Campaigns • Political Campaigns & Consulting • Ballot Proposals - Issue Advocacy Research • Community - Media Relations • Issue - Image Management • Database Development & List Management =========================== Stories We're Following This Week Gun Safety What top Republican lawmakers said about the Nashville school shooting - The Washington Post Michigan Democrats have more ideas on gun safety, labor, civil rights - Detroit Free Press Democratic gun safety laws met with a shrug in Michigan gun country - Bridge Michigan After Nashville shooting, Senate chaplain makes rare plea to lawmakers - The Washington Post State Government Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel calls income tax cut temporary.

In his book, Nature Wants Us To Be Fat, Dr. Rick Johnson explains that there are certain biological mechanisms that encourage weight gain in order to support our body's metabolic needs. The problem is, we switch it on but do things that don't allow it to be switched off. In this week's episode Dr. Johnson, clinician and renowned obesity researcher, explains the roles water, salt, glucose, fructose and uric acid play in our metabolism and how we can turn off our fat switch.

Nature put a “fat switch” in our bodies. Stuck in the “on” position, it's the hidden source of weight gain, heart disease, and many other common health struggles. But you can turn it off. Dr. Richard Johnson has been on the cutting edge of this research for more than a decade. His team's discovery of the fructose-powered survival switch—a metabolic pathway that animals in nature turn on and off as needed, but that our modern diet has permanently fixed in the on position, becoming a fat switch—revolutionized the way we think about why we gain weight. Dr. Johnson takes you along on an eye-opening investigation  into:  • What you can do to turn off your fat switch—and what science is working on right  now to make doing so easier • What we have in common with hibernating bears, sperm whales, and the world's  fattest bird—and what makes us different • How the survival switch works, and which foods other than fructose activate it • The surprising role dehydration plays in fat accumulation • Why uric acid may be the key to fructose's negative health effects • The direct link between the survival switch and health conditions such as metabol- ic syndrome, diabetes, gout, kidney disease, liver disease, stroke, cancer, and more • Early research revealing the connection to addiction, ADHD, and other behavioral  disorders Dr. Johnson not only provides new recommendations for how we can prevent or treat obe- sity, but also how we can use this information to reduce our risk of developing disease. Nature wants us to be fat, and when we understand why, we gain the tools we need to lose weight and optimize our health. Check out Nature Wants Us to Be Fat  DR. RICHARD JOHNSON is a Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado and is both a clinician, educator and researcher. He is board certified in internal medicine, infectious diseases, and kidney disease and is the founding editor of Comprehensive Clinical Nephrology, one of the main textbooks on kidney disease. For more than 20 years, he has led research on the cause of obesity and diabetes, with especial interest in the  role of sugar (especially fructose) and uric acid. His research has been highly cited, published in top medical journals, and supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health. He is the author of The Sugar Fix and The Fat Switch. His latest work contains state-of-the art discoveries on the cause of obesity and potential cures. Currently Dr. Johnson lives in Colorado with his wife, kids, and two rambunctious puppies.

As new diet fads circulate around the internet and the latest trends and research seems to change every other day, finally some pieces of the “what's making me fat” puzzle are starting to fit together. Even more so, with today's health concerns, obesity is no longer the only indicator for poor health and metabolic disease. Dr. Richard Johnson is board certified in internal medicine, infectious diseases, and kidney disease and is known as the Fructose Expert. In this episode he's breaking down the orchestrated events taking place in our bodies between sugar, salt, and how your foods are triggering you to gain weight.Check out Dr. Richard Johnson's latest book, Nature Wants Us to Be Fat: https://amzn.to/3u1Amih SHOW NOTES:0:00 | Introduction to Dr Richard Johnson0:42 | Why We Get Fat6:18 | Fructose Signaling17:47 | Is Fructose the Problem26:34 | The Dehydration Trigger34:59 | Watch Your Salt Intake41:00 | The Role of Uric Acid47:34 | Get Your Vitamin C51:36 | Avoid These FoodsQUOTES:“There is a switch that animals use to go from being us normal weight to overweight, that switch, you can activate it by certain types of foods.” [1:53]“The fat is like the firewood, and the sugar is like the fire. So if you take away the fire, and you go on a low carb diet, and you are in high fat now, well, there's no stimulus to gain weight because because you've taken away the fructose” [17:18]“One of the classic means for stimulating fructose turns out to be from a high glucose level in the blood.” [23:02]“When you eat, if your glucose goes up in your blood, it triggers the production of fructose.” [37:59]“So it's either the fructose you eat, or the fructose you make if you eat a lot of fructose, you're going to activate the switch.” [38:58]“We have a higher uric acid, and this makes us more sensitive to the effects of fructose because fructose is working through uric acid. [...] and when that happens, we become very sensitive to sugar” [40:14]“In the potency sugars, number one, high glycemic carbs are probably number two. salty foods are distant three, and umami is maybe even a four.” [44:36]“Exercise turns out to be a great way not to lose weight, cause it doesn't burn many calories, but it stimulates the mitochondria, you won't notice the benefit except the benefit's going to be happening.” [55:46]Follow Richard Johnson: Website: https://drrichardjohnson.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drrichardjjohnson/

Throughout my training and practice as a physician, I have come to one very disappointing conclusion:  Western medicine isn't helping people lead better lives. Now that I've realized this, I've become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you'll join me on this journey. 00:10:40 Podcast begins 00:10:56 Red Meat + Longevity 00:14:11 Healthy user bias vs. unhealthy user bias 00:16:36 Fructose and uric acid 00:20:11 How much fruit is too much? 00:27:56 Fructose  00:30:36 Thoughts on fiber  00:34:16 Processed sugar versus honey and fruit 00:36:21 Paul's thoughts on vegetables 00:41:51 Rick Johnson study on adding fructose back to a low fructose diet 00:47:56 Polyol pathway and sorbitol 00:55:41 Does fruit and honey cause uric acid to rise? 00:57:26 Paul's uric acid over the years 01:00:10 Where does uric acid come from? 1:10:26 How high can uric acid go while fasting?
