In this episode, Dr. Mary Alice Mina answers the internet's most asked questions about testosterone, topical estrogen, and perimenopause. Pulled straight from the comments section, she covers who can actually prescribe testosterone, whether estradiol and estriol can be used together on the face, what swollen eyelids might really mean, what lab work matters before starting testosterone therapy, how topical estrogen interacts with birth control pills, the correct way to apply topical estrogen, whether birth control suppresses testosterone, and whether estrogen levels need to be monitored while using topical treatments. She closes with a detailed answer on facial estradiol, hair thinning, and dry skin, and the collagen and elastin benefits the research does show. Want more support navigating your hormones?

Are you actually searching for a new life—or are you searching for permission to become who you already are?In this episode of Badass Basic Bitch, Brianna sits down with Dr. Sarah Webb, author, channeler, spiritual coach, and internationally recognized expert on colorism, for a powerful conversation about identity, worthiness, self-awareness, spirituality, and learning to distinguish the life you truly want from the one you've been conditioned to live.Dr. Sarah's path began in academia as an English professor working in the humanities and exploring complex social issues. Her work eventually evolved into a deeper examination of colorism, identity, healing, and spirituality. She is the author of Colorism: The Politics of Skin Tone and How We Get Free and now works with people through channeled coaching and dream journeys, guiding them on a heart-led mission to transform their lives from the inside out.Brianna and Dr. Sarah explore how much of our identity is consciously chosen versus inherited from our families, cultures, communities, and societal expectations. Dr. Sarah explains why the body can be one of our greatest sources of information when determining whether we're living authentically—and why tension, discomfort, expansion, dreams, and even daydreams deserve our attention.They also dive into colorism and the ways skin-tone bias can shape identity and worthiness, sometimes without people consciously recognizing its influence. Dr. Sarah shares why healing isn't only about understanding what happened to us, but recognizing the agency we have now to interrupt patterns and prevent pain from continuing into future generations.This conversation is an invitation to become curious about your own story: How much of your life reflects who you really are—and how much of it was handed to you?In This Episode, We Discuss:How to recognize whether you're living your own story or one that was handed to youThe difference between authentic desire and societal expectationWhy your body can reveal whether your life feels alignedHow identity can be both inherited and intentionally createdWhy changing your life doesn't always mean completely starting overDr. Sarah's journey from English professor to author, channeler, and spiritual coachHow childhood experiences with bullying shaped her compassion and workWhy she became passionate about helping people recognize their unrealized potentialWhat colorism is and why it's important to talk about itHow skin-tone discrimination can occur within the same racial or ethnic communityWhy colorism is a global issue that crosses culturesThe connection between colorism, internalized bias, and worthinessHow societal biases can influence identity without us consciously realizing itWhy healing our relationship with ourselves is foundationalWhat spirituality means outside of traditional religious definitionsHow dreams, daydreams, journaling, and self-reflection can deepen self-awarenessWhat Dr. Sarah means by a “dream journey”How dreams can provide information about our emotions, desires, and directionUsing body scans to recognize tension, expansion, and other physical signalsWhy noticing patterns is more powerful than analyzing one isolated experienceHow inherited and systemic wounds can continue across generationsThe role of agency in breaking cycles of trauma and painWhy becoming more self-aware can change what we pass down to the next generationMemorable Quote“Sometimes we don't need to move out of the house. Sometimes we need to renovate.” — Dr. Sarah WebbKey TakeawaysYour Body Knows When Something Doesn't FitOne of the simplest ways to begin questioning whether you're living authentically is to notice how your life actually feels.Rather than only asking, Does my life look successful? or Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?, Dr. Sarah encourages us to pay attention to what happens inside our bodies as we move through our days.Where do you feel tension? Where do you feel expansive? What drains you? What makes you feel more alive?Your body can provide information that your conscious mind has learned to ignore.You Can Honor Your Circumstances Without Being Defined by ThemNot every aspect of our lives is something we consciously chose. We inherit families, cultures, circumstances, expectations, identities, and experiences.But Dr. Sarah explains that recognizing what we've inherited doesn't mean we have no agency over what happens next.Sometimes transformation doesn't require abandoning everything and becoming someone completely different. Like renovating a house, we can examine what's already there, decide what still serves us, and intentionally rebuild the parts that don't.Colorism Is About More Than Skin ToneDr. Sarah defines colorism as discrimination based on skin tone, including discrimination that happens among people within the same racial or ethnic group.But the impact goes deeper than appearance.Colorism can influence how people are perceived, treated, valued, and how they eventually learn to perceive themselves. Because these messages can become deeply internalized, people may not recognize the role colorism has played in their identity until much later in life.Worthiness Starts With Your Relationship With YourselfExternal biases can eventually become internal beliefs.When we're repeatedly exposed to messages about which appearances, identities, or characteristics are considered more valuable, those ideas can shape our sense of worth—even when we consciously disagree with them.Healing requires examining not only how the world has treated us, but also the beliefs we've absorbed and the relationship we've developed with ourselves as a result.Your Dreams May Be Telling You SomethingDream work doesn't have to mean finding a mystical interpretation for every detail of a dream.Dr. Sarah encourages people to simply begin paying attention.Keep a journal beside your bed. Write down what you remember. Notice your daydreams too. What were you thinking about? What was happening immediately before it? What emotions came up?Over time, patterns may emerge that help reveal desires, fears, needs, and possibilities that aren't getting your attention during everyday life.Self-Awareness Can Start With a Simple Body ScanYou don't need an elaborate spiritual practice to become more connected to yourself.Pause and scan your body.Notice your jaw, shoulders, chest, stomach, hands, and legs. Where are you holding tension? Where do you feel relaxed? What happens in your body when you think about certain people, decisions, or areas of your life?The goal isn't to immediately fix what you notice. It's to start listening.Healing Gives Us an Opportunity to Break the CycleWe may inherit wounds, biases, beliefs, behaviors, and coping mechanisms from the people and systems that came before us.But inheritance doesn't have to equal destiny.Dr. Sarah emphasizes the importance of recognizing our agency. We may not have chosen what happened to us or what was passed down to us, but becoming conscious of those patterns gives us an opportunity to make different choices—and change what gets passed forward.A Simple Self-Awareness PracticeIf you want to begin exploring some of the ideas from this episode, Dr. Sarah suggests starting small:Keep a dream journal. Write down what you remember when you wake up, even if it's only a few details.Pay attention to your daydreams. Notice not only what you're imagining, but what was happening when your mind went there.Scan your body. Notice tension, discomfort, relaxation, and expansion without immediately trying to change any of it.Look for patterns. One dream, thought, or sensation may not mean much by itself. Pay attention to what keeps returning.Get curious about your story. Ask yourself which parts of your life feel consciously chosen and which might reflect expectations or identities you've inherited.The goal isn't to have all the answers. It's to become more aware of the information you're already receiving.Connect with Dr. Sarah WebbDr. Sarah Webb is an author, channeler, spiritual coach, and internationally recognized expert on colorism. Through channeled coaching and dream journeys, she guides students on a heart-led mission to transform their world from the inside out.

A clear message from the Justice Minister – if you don't pay your court fines, you could be walking home. Every bailiff in the country is out today scanning parked cars' number plates as part of a wider programme clamping down on people overdue on fines and reparations. Between July last year and last Friday, more than 400 vehicles have been seized and nearly 700 cars have been clamped, bringing in more than $4.2 million. Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking we've been too soft on this in the past. He's told officials to harden up, as we've let people away with not paying or repaying one dollar a week. Goldsmith admits there is an element of PR, telling Hosking they want to get the message out that you have to pay your fines, so the money can be spent helping victims.

I talk with Lindsay Crawley-Herbert, Chief People and Transformation Officer at SCAN, about why AI transformation is really a people and workforce challenge. We get into why SCAN moved AI, data, and analytics under HR, how they built their internal GPT called SCAN X, how they manage AI costs and governance in a regulated healthcare environment, and why the goal is not replacing people but helping employees become "superhuman" with AI.

Head lice might be one of the most stomach-turning phrases a parent can hear, but Dr. Mary Alice Mina wants everyone to take a breath before reaching for the clippers. In this episode of The Skin Real, she breaks down what head lice actually are, why they have nothing to do with hygiene, and how they really spread through close head-to-head contact rather than jumping from scalp to scalp. She walks through exactly how to check for lice and nits at home, the step-by-step protocol for using permethrin and pyrethrin shampoos correctly, including the treatment mistake most people make, what to do when over-the-counter options do not work, and how to properly clean bedding, brushes, and stuffed animals so lice do not come back.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Sam Rosenberg has spent his career protecting some of the most recognized people on the planet, heads of state, CEOs, and celebrities including Warren Buffett, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Tom Cruise. A former Marine Corps officer who moved into close protection in 1996, he's since shifted his focus to teaching ordinary people the same skills he used to guard public figures, through his company Live Ready and his bestselling book of the same name. He's trained tens of thousands of people to recognize threats before they become emergencies. This one is a genuine masterclass in personal safety, and Sam's philosophy anchors it: it's good to have a lifeguard, but you should know how to swim. He and Larry get into why violence is never actually random, how to read a parking lot, the acronym TIME that maps how attackers operate, the normalcy bias that keeps good people from trusting their gut, and persuasion predators, the charming, manipulative threats every dad with a daughter needs to understand. If you want to protect the people who matter most without living in fear, this episode delivers the tools. Timeline Summary [1:02] – Protecting Netanyahu, the chess match, and embedding covert protection in a crowd [4:35] – Tom Cruise in Pittsburgh and why he was one of the best to work with [6:23] – How you even land a gig protecting someone at that level [8:12] – Protecting Terry Bradshaw at the NFL draft, and why it's all word of mouth [12:36] – The core philosophy: it's good to have a lifeguard, but you should know how to swim [14:51] – Sam's full bio, the Marine Corps, Live Ready, and the book [16:34] – Situational awareness starts with our wives in parking lots [20:04] – The myth of helplessness and the myth of randomness [21:44] – Why violence is a process as predictable as boiling water [22:38] – Attacks happen on arrival and departure, and every environment has a purpose [24:10] – Watching for the watchers, and the New York City looking up analogy [26:30] – The creepy guy vibe and why we hunt for evidence to dismiss it [27:42] – Social contracting, bias, and how it blinds us to real danger [30:13] – Normalcy bias: the brain's desire for everything to be normal [32:04] – Breaking down a real, sophisticated parking lot kidnapping on video [35:36] – The simple bow: trust your intuition even without all the evidence [37:12] – What that woman could have noticed, and the double-tap unlock habit [43:14] – The TIME acronym: target selection, intelligence, method of attack, escape [46:16] – Why street criminals run the same process as terrorists [49:17] – Can you avoid being targeted? You can influence it, not always prevent it [52:04] – Charlie Kirk, Butler, and why it has to be stopped in advance [53:27] – Recognizing the interview means you've already been selected [56:16] – Hard target versus soft target, and why gimmicks don't work [57:29] – The undercover story: why street-smart observers saw through his disguise [1:02:47] – Willingness and ability are all it takes to be a hard target [1:04:31] – What bad guys are truly afraid of: failure [1:08:55] – Persuasion predators, masters of charm and disguise [1:10:31] – Reframing charm: ask why is this person trying to charm me [1:11:56] – No is a complete sentence, and the veils of denial [1:13:54] – Sociopaths, the pity play, and the puppy law used on children 5 Key Takeaways Violence Is a Process, Not Random — Attacks follow an observable, predictable sequence. Learning to spot the pattern, especially during arrival and departure moments, is what lets you get ahead of danger instead of reacting to it. Watch for the Watchers — Every environment has a purpose. Scan left to right for anomalies, people not using the space for its intended purpose, and notice who's watching who's coming and going. That awareness alone makes you a harder target. Trust Your Radar Over Normalcy Bias — Good people talk themselves out of intuitive warnings because they can't find hard evidence or don't want to seem judgmental. When something feels off, that unease is data. Default to it and remove yourself from the situation. Recognize the Interview — When a stranger approaches you in an anomalous moment, that's an interview, and it means you've already been selected as a target. How you manage that interaction, with the right body language and enough force, often determines whether an attack proceeds. Reframe Charm and Hold the Line on No — Teach daughters to ask why is this person trying to charm me rather than being flattered. No is a complete sentence, and anyone who pushes past it is signaling they care only about what they want. A pity play after being caught in lies is a massive red flag.

Send us Fan MailMy client Nickie joined the Case Report Writing Workshop because she knew she needed to write a case report for her oncology specialization application — and she wanted real guidance and feedback to get through it. She wrote it, submitted it, got accepted with zero required edits, and passed her exam. AND THEN a peer-reviewed journal, Oncology Rehab and Practice, accepted her case report for publication!In this episode, Nickie joins me to walk through her process from start to finish, in her own words — including where she started (spoiler: "I don't think I want to do this"), the mistake she almost made with her introduction, what the ABPTS application portal actually looks like, and the formatting habit that made all the difference.We cover:Why Nickie, who doesn't consider herself a writer, almost didn't want to start this process at allThe common mistake of starting with your introduction, and why it should actually come near the endWhat candidates aren't told about the ABPTS application portal — and how that changes how you should outline your case reportThe specific formatting habits that got her accepted in 3 days with zero required editsWhy multiple readers, including people outside of oncology, made her final draft strongerWhat it took to adapt her case report for journal submission after her ABPTS acceptanceThis isn't a promise that everyone who goes through the workshop gets published — that's not the standard, and it's an exciting first for us. But Nickie's story is a real example of what's possible with the right process and support behind you.Resources mentioned:Case Report Writing Workshop: https://TheOncoPT.com/workshopFull video version of this episode (watch Nickie tell her story): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY_uboY-AgMNew episodes for oncology physical therapists every Tuesday — subscribe so you don't miss one.

In this presentation, we take a deep dive into the 300-year history of mobile surgery supporting land campaigns — from Dominique Larrey's ambulance volantes through the Letterman system, Arnhem, the Falklands, Mali, and the current Russia-Ukraine war. Drawing on rare surgical memoirs, battle maps, and personal accounts, the discussion extracts the recurring problems that technology has never fully solved: logistics drag, extended timelines, signature management, and the tension between mobility and capability.We then turn to the horizon. In an era of mosaic warfare and large-scale combat operations, medicine cannot remain a drag factor. The talk explores contractile and expandable surgical systems, single-surgeon reach, austere armored resuscitation teams, underground and containerized facilities, emissions control, and how we expand the surgical workforce under resource constraints while still doing the most for the most.Whether you are preparing for LSCO, SOF support, or prolonged field care in denied environments, the hard-won lessons of the past remain the best preparation for the fight ahead.Key TakeawaysMobile surgery is not new — Larrey, Guthrie, Pirogov, and Letterman already solved (and documented) many of the mobility and triage problems we still face.Institutional memory fades fast. Rare single-edition war surgery texts must be digitized and pushed into training pipelines before the lessons are watered down.In mosaic warfare the linear Role 1–4 model is insufficient. Surgical capability must become a mesh: dispersed, diggable, low-signature, and able to expand or contract with the fight.Big fixed facilities and large tented Role 2/3s become high-value targets. Single-surgeon or small polyvalent teams, pre-dug containers, underground sites, and armored austere teams offer greater survivability and shorter wounding-to-surgery times.Blood, sterilizing capacity, anesthetic volume, and outflow remain the greatest logistic constraints. Expectation management and robust triage (including expectant) will be non-negotiable.Capability can be extended by bringing registrars, ODPs/CRNA-equivalents, and well-trained medics further forward earlier — but this requires deliberate peacetime training and wartime derogations.Command and control, decision-making loops, and the ability to cache or hand off casualties must be rehearsed now, not improvised under fire.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Scope: 300 Years of Mobile Surgery02:00 – Institutional Memory, Rare Texts & the Risk of Forgetting05:25 – Dominique Larrey & the Birth of the Ambulance Volante07:00 – Guthrie, Napoleonic Lessons & Early British Mobility07:40 – Crimea, Pirogov's Forward Teams & Brunel's Prefabs08:15 – The Letterman System & the American Civil War08:50 – World War I: Auto-Chir, Operating Cars & the Limits of Static Warfare11:15 – Spanish Civil War: Civilian Surgeons & Fluid Fronts12:00 – World War II Desert, SAS & the Reality of Extreme Isolation13:40 – Arnhem, Market Garden & Improvised Care Under Fire16:00 – Varsity, Chindits & the Logistics Drag of Jungle Warfare18:00 – Falklands, Gulf War, Mali & Modern Mobility Challenges19:50 – Ukraine: Extended Timelines, Targeting of Medical Assets & Aged Injuries20:50 – Horizon Scan: Mosaic Warfare & Contractile Surgical Systems22:00 – Dispersion, Digging In, Underground Facilities & Signature Management24:00 – Capability Extenders, Team Composition & Decision-Making Under Constraint25:30 – Logistics, Blood, Sterilization & the Middle Ground Between Fixed and Tiny Teams27:00 – Closing Thoughts & QuestionsFollow @prolonged_field_care and visit prolongedfieldcare.org for more austere and prolonged field care education.
Perhaps you've heard one on the radio, or got one before a video online, or maybe even seen one on transit, but ads for full-body MRIs are everywhere these days. They tell you to book an appointment, selling it as a preventative measure to catch something early. But it's not something that's actually recommended by any medical association—anywhere. So why have they become so popular? Host Caryn Ceolin is speaking with Dr. Matt Davenport, Service Chief and Vice Chair in the Department of Radiology and a professor at the University of Michigan about what a full body MRI actually is, it's potential value and harms, and if it's something that you should actually consider getting.

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common cancer on the planet, yet most people have never heard of it until they're sitting in a dermatologist's chair hearing the word cancer for the first time. In this episode, Dr. Mary Alice Mina walks through what these lesions actually look like, and it's rarely what people expect. Sometimes it's a pink, shiny bump that bleeds without warning. Other times it hides as a stubborn scar-like patch or a dry spot that gets mistaken for eczema for months. She covers how a diagnosis actually comes together, from the dermatoscope exam to the different biopsy methods used to confirm what's going on before any treatment begins. From there, the conversation moves into the full range of treatment options, Mohs surgery, topical chemo creams, scraping and burning, laser, radiation, and oral medications, and how a lesion's location, size, and subtype decide which path makes sense. The episode wraps with what happens after treatment: the real odds of getting another basal cell down the road, and the everyday habits, from sunscreen to a supplement called nicotinamide, that can lower that risk.

Tax season looked different in 2026, and it's not just volume. In this episode, Damien Greathead and Penny Breslin unpack the real AI story inside accounting firms: a live test of Juno saved 25% of prep time, clients are submitting documents faster than ever, and AI meeting assistants are replacing manual notetaking. But the bigger conversation is about critical thinking. As AI handles more routine work, who's making sure your team can still spot the anomaly? Identify the conflict? Give a client a real perspective? Damien shares how Moneypenny is gamifying judgment, hiring non-accountants, and rebuilding firm roles around advisory rather than compliance. This is a practitioner episode — real tools, real results, real friction. If you're building or scaling a CAS practice, this one is essential listening.Thank you to our sponsors MoneyPenny, LLC.

Why does cancer caregiving make it feel like your own life has to wait until after the next scan? In this episode, Charlotte explains what waiting “until then" does to caregivers and shows the impact of postponing trips, opportunities, goals, and personal growth until life feels more certain. She explores how repeated scan cycles can make your future feel provisional, why saying “maybe” too often can quietly change friendships and relationships, and how caregiving uncertainty can interrupt your career, interests, and evolving sense of identity. This episode also offers a gentle self-preservation practice: choosing one small action that belongs to you now, without requiring certainty about what happens next.In this episode, Charlotte explores:why caregivers often say “maybe” instead of committing to future planshow living between scans can slowly shrink your social worldthe effect of caregiving uncertainty on career growth, interests, and identitywhy hesitation is a learned protective response, not a character flawone small way to begin investing in your life before the uncertainty is resolved

Disclaimer: This article is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice. Talk to your own physician before making decisions about cancer screening, testing, or treatment.TL;DR* A healthy 58-year-old gets a routine full-body scan, finds a “cancer” that would never have hurt him, and ends up with permanent incontinence from unnecessary treatment. This is more common than most people realize.* Dr. H. Gilbert Welch, a Dartmouth-trained cancer epidemiologist, spent 30 years documenting overdiagnosis — the discovery of cancers that meet the technical definition but would never have caused harm. His estimate: roughly 60% of PSA-detected prostate cancers and 25% of mammography-detected breast cancers fall into this category.* The “5-year survival rate” you hear cited as proof screening saves lives is often distorted by lead-time bias — finding a cancer earlier can make survival numbers look better without adding a single day to anyone's life.* Not all screening is suspect. Colonoscopy, low-dose CT for high-risk smokers, and cervical cancer screening (Pap/HPV) have strong randomized-trial evidence behind them.* The piece conventional screening misses: metabolic health. A 2026 Nature Communications study using machine learning on UK biobank data linked insulin resistance to increased risk across at least 12 cancer types — independent of body weight — and standard checkups rarely test for it.* Want a personalized look at your own metabolic terrain?

He goes in for a routine total-body scan — the kind now available at imaging centers with no doctor's referral required. Two hours later, a radiologist flags a small spot on his prostate.Six months, two biopsies, and one surgery later, he has a diagnosis: permanent incontinence. And the cancer itself? “Clinically insignificant.” It almost certainly would never have caused him harm. He would have lived out a full life and died of something else entirely, never knowing it was there.The test didn't save his life. It changed it — for the worse.This scenario happens thousands of times a year, and it's exactly what Dr. H. Gilbert Welch — a general internist, cancer epidemiologist, and senior researcher at Brigham and Women's Hospital — spent his career warning about. His book, Should I Be Tested for Cancer?, makes a case that runs against decades of public health messaging: more testing is not automatically better testing, and early detection does not automatically mean lives saved.This article unpacks what Welch got right, where his argument leaves a gap, and what a more complete, proactive approach to cancer risk actually looks like.The Cancer Reservoir: Why Finding More Doesn't Mean Saving MoreFor decades, the operating assumption in medicine has been simple: catch cancer early, save the life. No asterisk, no nuance.Welch's research complicates that. His central idea is the cancer reservoir — the observation that most people carry small clusters of abnormal cells somewhere in their bodies right now. In the prostate, thyroid, breast, or lung. Under a microscope, these cells look like cancer. But many of them will never grow, never spread, and never threaten a life. A person could carry one for thirty years and die at 87 of heart disease, never knowing it existed.The problem is that increasingly sensitive tools — full-body scans, PSA tests, low-dose CT — are very good at finding these dormant clusters. And once something is found and labeled “cancer,” the medical system is built to treat it.Welch's numbers, drawn from randomized trial data, are striking: approximately 60% of PSA-detected prostate cancers are overdiagnosed, meaning they meet the technical definition of cancer but would never have caused symptoms or death. For mammography-detected breast cancers, the estimate is around 25% — meaning roughly one in four women treated for a screen-detected breast cancer may never have needed that treatment: the chemotherapy, the radiation, the surgery, the fear, the financial cost.This isn't an anti-medicine argument. It's a call for a conversation that rarely happens: here's the case for this test, and here's the case against it — here's what we might find that helps you, and here's what we might find that sets off a chain reaction you'll spend years managing. For most patients, that conversation never occurs.The 5-Year Survival Stat Is Misleading YouFive-year survival rates for cancer are often cited as evidence that screening works — and they sound like exactly that. But Welch shows why the number can be deceptive, and it comes down to lead-time bias.Here's the mechanism. Imagine a woman whose cancer will kill her at 65, regardless of when it's found. If screening catches it at 62, she lives three years with the diagnosis before dying at 65 — a five-year survival rate under five years. But if that same cancer isn't found until symptoms appear at 64, she lives one year with the diagnosis and dies at 65 — a five-year survival rate of zero.Same woman. Same cancer. Same date of death. But the version of her found earlier through screening appears, statistically, to have “survived longer.” Screening didn't add a single day to her life — it just moved up the start date of her diagnosis. It's the equivalent of claiming a win in a race because someone moved your starting line 200 meters ahead of everyone else's: you didn't run faster, you just started earlier. The finish line never moved.Now layer in overdiagnosis. If 1,000 people are diagnosed with cancers that would never have hurt them, and all 1,000 are alive five years later — which they would have been regardless — the survival statistics look dramatically better without a single life actually being saved. Welch's research shows that 5-year survival rates can climb while actual cancer death rates stay flat. More survivors on paper. Same number of people dying.None of this means medicine isn't making genuine progress in some cancers — colon cancer being a clear example, discussed below. It does mean that 5-year survival statistics, on their own, are not proof that a screening program is saving lives.Where the Evidence for Screening Is Actually StrongIt would be a mistake to leave this discussion thinking all screening is suspect. Welch himself is careful to draw a distinction, and there are tests with solid, randomized-trial evidence behind them.Colonoscopy for colorectal cancer is arguably the strongest case for screening that exists. It's unique because it doesn't just detect cancer — it can prevent it, by removing precancerous polyps before they ever become malignant. Colon cancer incidence and mortality have both dropped measurably in populations with high screening rates. If you're 45 or older, or have a family history, this is worth a serious conversation with your doctor.Low-dose CT for lung cancer, in high-risk individuals specifically, showed a 15–20% reduction in lung cancer deaths in the National Lung Screening Trial — but only among heavy smokers (roughly a pack a day for 20+ years). The risk-benefit math works because the baseline risk in that population is high.Cervical cancer screening — Pap smears and HPV testing — is a genuine public health success story. Rates have dropped dramatically since routine screening began, because cervical cancer has a long, slow, detectable precancerous stage that can be caught before it turns invasive.The common thread: these screenings either catch a long, slow precancerous process, or they target a population where the risk is already high enough that the math clearly favors testing. That's the question worth bringing to your doctor: given my specific risk factors, does the math on this test work in my favor?By contrast, the evidence is much weaker for consumer-marketed total-body scans, full-body MRI as a general “optimization” tool, universal PSA screening in all men over 50, and mammography in average-risk women in their 40s. These aren't mandates — they're conversations, and informed consent means understanding both sides before deciding.The Harms Nobody Talks AboutHealthcare marketing tends to present testing as one-sided: test early, catch it early, save your life. Welch's research catalogs the costs that rarely make it into that pitch.False positives. A mammogram flags a shadow. It isn't cancer — but you don't know that yet. Six weeks of follow-up imaging, maybe a biopsy, and the stress hormones flooding your body during that stretch are a real physiological cost, even when the final answer is “you're fine.”Unnecessary treatment. When a cancer that would never have caused harm is treated anyway — with surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy — the harm is real and the benefit is zero.The cancer label itself. Research shows that being labeled a cancer patient, even for a cancer that's never actively treated, changes a person's psychology, relationships, insurability, and life trajectory. Welch identifies this as a form of harm medicine rarely accounts for.Radiation exposure. Repeated CT scans carry cumulative radiation risk. A full-body scan can expose a person to the radiation equivalent of hundreds of chest X-rays — a real risk added to the body in pursuit of a cancer that may never develop.Welch's central reframe: the question isn't “should I get tested,” it's “given my risk factors, my age, my family history, and my values, does the math on this specific test work in my favor?” That's informed consent — and most people never get that conversation.The Missing Piece: Your Metabolism Is an Early Warning SystemWelch's work is thorough on what not to do. Where it leaves a gap is the proactive question: if blanket screening of healthy people isn't the answer, what is?The answer lies in the years — sometimes decades — before a tumor ever forms. Cancer doesn't appear overnight. The cellular environment that allows it to take root and grow develops gradually, and it leaves metabolic fingerprints long before any scan could detect a tumor.The clearest evidence for this comes from a 2026 study published in Nature Communications, which used machine learning on a massive UK database and linked insulin resistance to a significantly increased risk of at least 12 types of cancer. Pancreatic cancer risk was elevated by roughly 29%, colon cancer by 18%, and breast cancer by 13% — and critically, this risk showed up independent of body weight. A person at a healthy weight can still be carrying the metabolic dysfunction that drives cancer risk, and a standard annual physical would miss it entirely, because most doctors check fasting glucose, not fasting insulin. By the time glucose is elevated, insulin regulation has often been off for years.Layer in chronic inflammation (measured by hs-CRP), elevated ferritin, low vitamin D, rising homocysteine, and a poor triglyceride-to-HDL ratio, and what emerges is a picture of a metabolic environment that is increasingly hospitable to cancer. Think of it as soil: a healthy garden doesn't grow weeds easily, but depleted, imbalanced soil invites them. Cancer is the weed. Metabolic dysfunction is the depleted soil. The strategy, then, is to work on the soil rather than wait to spot the weed.What to Actually Do About ItPath A: Testing to ask your provider forThese tests build a real metabolic picture — the kind that shows soil quality before any weed appears.* Fasting insulin + HOMA-IR — not just fasting glucose. This is likely the single most important test most doctors aren't ordering.* Hemoglobin A1c — your 3-month blood sugar average.* hs-CRP — a high-sensitivity marker of systemic inflammation.* Full lipid panel, including TG/HDL ratio — a ratio above 3 is a strong metabolic red flag.* Ferritin — elevated levels are increasingly linked to inflammatory cancer environments.* Vitamin D (25-OH) — low levels are associated with higher cancer risk across multiple types; optimal is 60–80 ng/mL, not just “in range.”* Homocysteine — a methylation marker that, when elevated, signals oxidative stress.* LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) — rises when cells are under metabolic stress.For a deeper look, consider a comprehensive nutrient and organic acids panel (NutrEval), a gut microbiome panel (GI-MAP) — the gut-cancer connection is real — and a full hormone panel including cortisol, estrogen, testosterone, and SHBG.Path B: Lifestyle changes to start today* Eat in this order: protein and fat first, vegetables second, starches last. This alone can meaningfully blunt post-meal blood sugar spikes.* Cut refined sugars and seed oils — the two most direct dietary drivers of insulin resistance and inflammation.* Move daily. At minimum, 150 minutes of moderate activity per week, resistance training twice a week, and even a 10-minute walk after meals to improve glucose metabolism.* Prioritize sleep. Poor sleep disrupts glucose metabolism after a single bad night. Seven to nine hours is non-negotiable for metabolic health.* Manage stress. Chronic cortisol elevation drives insulin resistance — this is biochemistry, not soft advice.You don't need to do all of this at once. Pick one test to ask for at your next appointment, and one lifestyle change to start this week.Summary & Next StepDr. Welch's research makes an uncomfortable but important case: early detection is not automatically synonymous with lives saved, the 5-year survival statistic can be misleading, and testing healthy people carries real costs — false positives, unnecessary treatment, radiation exposure, and the psychological weight of a cancer label. At the same time, some screenings — colonoscopy, cervical cancer screening, low-dose CT for high-risk smokers — have strong evidence behind them and are worth pursuing for the right person.What's missing from that picture is a proactive strategy, and that's where metabolic health comes in. Insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and blood sugar dysregulation show up years before cancer does, and unlike a full-body scan, they're both measurable and fixable.If you want a clear picture of where your own metabolic terrain stands — and what your highest-leverage next steps are — book a Metabolic Audit Call.

Visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, Prenuvo MRI scans, and the truth about belly fat Your gut and your face are telling on you. This episode reveals why the fat under your skin might be protecting you while the fat around your organs is quietly wrecking your metabolism, heart, and longevity, and exactly what to do about the difference. Get $300 off your next Prenuvo MRI scan: https://prenuvo.com/?discount=Dave Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Sean O'Mara, a former undercover narcotics agent, criminal prosecutor, emergency medicine physician, and retired U.S. Army Colonel who assisted the White House and Senior Executive Service, treating Vice President Dick Cheney, former President Bill Clinton, and Secretary of State Colin Powell. Today he's recognized as the world's most experienced physician in eliminating visceral fat and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), the inflammatory fat now linked to nearly every major chronic disease and accelerated aging. He founded Influence Medicine, a specialty built around helping senators, heads of state, and top executives optimize their biology so they can perform and lead at the highest level. Dave and Dr. O'Mara break down the real difference between visceral fat and subcutaneous fat, why a visible six-pack might signal hidden disease, and how MRI scans reveal what your mirror never will. They dig into the biohacking strategies that actually shift your body composition: fasting protocols that build beneficial fat instead of burning it away, microbiome optimization for fat metabolism, and the supplements and functional medicine tools Dr. O'Mara uses with his highest-performing clients. They also cover the gut-hormone connection driving modern metabolic dysfunction, why political leaders are quietly getting scanned, and what your face reveals about your visceral fat levels before you ever step on a scale. You'll Learn: The real difference between visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, and why one protects you while the other kills you Why a six-pack might be hiding disease your MRI would catch How a 72-hour fasting protocol can build the good kind of fat through adiponectin signaling What your face reveals about your visceral fat and longevity risk The gut-hormone connection driving testosterone, metabolism, and inflammation Why senators and world leaders are getting scanned for hidden fat How microbiome health, fasting, and functional medicine work together for fat loss and longevity Thank you to our sponsors! - Beyond Wonderland Conference | Oct 13 - 14, 2026.

In Part 2 of this mini series on Collagen Loss, Dr. Mary Alice Mina moves from biology to action: the exact morning and evening skincare routine that makes sense for post-menopausal skin, which ingredients actually have evidence behind them, and which in-office treatments are worth the money. She walks through why a routine built for oily 20-something skin works against you later, then breaks down a simple AM routine (gentle cleanse, antioxidant/vitamin C serum, moisturizer, sunscreen) and PM routine (cleanse, retinol/retinoid as the cornerstone anti-aging ingredient, moisturizer), plus how to exfoliate without damaging the skin barrier. She then ranks in-office options — red light therapy, IPL, microneedling, neurotoxins, resurfacing lasers, chemical peels, and skin-tightening devices — explaining who each is right for and when surgery becomes the better conversation. The message throughout: it doesn't need to be complicated or expensive, just consistent and matched to where your skin actually is.

Nine years ago today, two dudes had an idea. That idea became The Bad Crypto Podcast — and 812 episodes later, we're still here. To celebrate our ninth anniversary, Joel Comm and Travis Wright are doing something useful with all those dead NFTs in your wallet: turning them into a tax write-off. Most of the NFTs we bought are abandoned, rugged, or worth pennies. But in the U.S., a crypto loss is a capital loss — and those losses can offset your gains (plus up to $3,000/year against ordinary income). Joel built a tool with Claude that scans your wallets, finds the damage, and hands you a report for your CPA.
Learn how to tune into your body's energy field using intuitive Byosen scanning and a deep, self-Reiki chakra healing meditation. Through the grounding energy of the Tree of Life, you will learn to listen to your chakras, release subconscious survival patterns, and restore your inner alignment. This gentle practice empowers what is ready to grow by clearing what no longer serves your highest good. Key Insights The Power of Byosen Scanning: By passing your hands over your body without judgment, you tap into your intuitive "clairsenses" to feel where energy is dense, light, or requesting special attention. Listening Over Fixing: Self-Reiki is a practice of deep listening that allows what is ready to release to gently dissolve into the light, making room for new growth. Tree of Life Stability: Incorporating the Tree of Life visualization allows you to establish deep, stable roots in the earth while remaining flexible enough in your branches to flow gracefully with life's changing seasons. Releasing Scarcity & Finding Power: Moving from the root to the crown with symbols like the Power and Mental/Emotional symbols allows you to release old survival habits, expectations, and self-doubt, reclaiming your authentic authority. People Also Ask (FAQ) *What is Byosen scanning in Reiki? Byosen scanning is a Japanese Reiki technique where you float your hands over the body to scan the energetic field, sensing temperature changes, tingling, or heaviness to locate areas needing healing. *How do I clear chakra blocks with self-Reiki? By placing your hands on each energy center, breathing in the Power and Mental/Emotional symbols, and setting the intention to release what no longer serves you while letting Reiki dissolve old patterns naturally. *How does the Tree of Life help with grounding? The Tree of Life meditation connects your energy directly to the Earth's core, giving you the stable foundation needed to handle global shifts and confusion without feeling isolated or overwhelmed.

This week, I'm sitting with a realization that made me cry in my car: my daughter is learning to take up space without first checking whether she is too much. Watching her at camp showed me that we really have created something different, even while I'm still untangling the childhood fears that taught me to shrink, scan the room, and control what I could.We're talking about parenting without projecting, breaking generational cycles, postpartum anxiety, family addiction, emotional safety, faith, and the strange gift of raising tiny queens who remind me who I was before I started editing myself. Maybe this is your permission, too: seasons don't have to stall you, and you're allowed to take up space again.00:00 This Episode Needed to Be Heard03:20 Camp Changed the Conversation04:07 Becoming a Mom Felt Different Each Time05:49 Postpartum Anxiety and Fear06:42 The Illusion of Control in Parenting08:31 Projecting Fear Onto Our Kids10:10 I Want Them to Call Me First11:06 Watching Her Take Up Space13:21 When Did I Stop Taking Up Space?14:08 Learning to Scan the Room16:00 We Broke the Pattern18:47 My Tiny Queens Reminded Me21:00 Seasons Don't Have to Stall You22:09 Permission to Take Up Space23:29 Who Is Cheering You On?
In the first half of a two-part episode on midlife skin, Dr. Mary Alice Mina breaks down the biology behind one of the most alarming stats in dermatology: women can lose up to 30% of their skin's collagen in the first five years after menopause. She explains why collagen decline actually starts as early as your 20s (about 1% a year), why estrogen loss accelerates that process dramatically at menopause, and why "collagen banking" earlier in life matters so much. Rather than jumping straight to products and procedures, Dr. Mina makes the case that skincare is whole-body care — walking through the inside-out factors that most directly affect collagen: protein intake (including how much you actually need and why vegetarian/vegan diets make it harder), sugar and glycation (AGEs), anti-inflammatory fats, antioxidants, hydration, and whether collagen supplements are actually worth taking.

Moon returns from Alabama after spending quality family time driving a boat like every dad whose only mission is launching kids off an inflatable tube at unsafe-but-technically-safe speeds. The gang debates whether tubing is childhood fun or simply a cleverly disguised upper-body endurance test that ends with someone losing a shoulder.Then the news takes a hard left.A St. Louis man is arrested... again... for throwing rocks off an overpass. Naturally, the conversation somehow turns into train hopping, small-town childhood crimes, and whether this guy secretly missed his calling as a major league pitcher.Just when you think we've hit peak weird...A man cuts off his own anatomy, sets it on fire, accidentally burns down a garage, and somehow gets arrested for arson. We wish we were making that sentence up.If that isn't enough nightmare fuel, the crew reacts to one of the wildest aviation stories ever: a flight instructor who simply opens the door mid-flight, tells his student "keep moving forward," and jumps out of the airplane. The student still lands safely because apparently she's the calmest human alive.We also revisit the unbelievable Tesla cliff case where an entire family survived a 300-foot plunge, discuss bizarre Florida drug smuggling excuses, debate irrational fears of tiny airplanes, celebrate another official case of Rafe's famous "butthole lightning," and somehow manage to squeeze in movie nostalgia, Culkin conspiracy theories, food news, and enough sarcasm to power St. Louis for a week.A baby fox whose face looks so much like Shaggy 2 Dope that Insane Clown Posse actually came to meet it. That somehow launches the crew into debating whether they should road-trip to this year's Gathering of the Juggalos in Missouri... where they immediately learn one important survival tip:The crew debates camping versus hotels, Clownvis as the official Juggalo ambassador, RV road trips, and whether anyone could profit from wearing latex gloves and collecting contaminated cash. Honestly? It somehow becomes one of the most educational segments we've ever done.We rank the whitest phrases ever spoken ("News flash, buddy." "Get a load of this guy." "Ready Freddy."), dive into celebrity news featuring Bon Jovi's return to the stage, Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley, Taylor Swift wedding conspiracy theories that somehow become a thousand-dollar bet, Luke Wilson becoming a first-time dad at 54, Shark Tank's newest guest sharks, Dune Part Three hype, Netflix's upcoming fried chicken documentary, MK Ultra documentaries, the worst movies ever made, and the latest Emmy nominations.The gang also pays tribute to Bonnie Tyler, debates whether Andie MacDowell is "stunning" or merely "a smoke show," and somehow finds time to invent another ridiculous punishment involving dressing like television characters for an entire week.Gathering of the Juggalos survival guideWhat exactly is a Poop Dollar?Celebrity gossip & entertainment newsBonnie Tyler tributeEmmy bet punishment announcedTaylor Swift wedding conspiracy continuesBirthday celebrations for RizCrap on CelebritiesPassword game chaosMidwest debates imaginable: sunflower selfies. The crew talks about the massive sunflower fields at Columbia Bottom Conservation Area, why everyone suddenly needs the perfect golden-hour Instagram picture, and the unspoken rules of not becoming "that person" who picks the flowers. Because apparently the unofficial sunflower police are real.Then things take a sharp turn when the gang talks about one of the strangest safety stories we've heard in a while. Kids are putting those squishy sensory toys in microwaves... and the results are genuinely terrifying. Riz shares a story that's equal parts public service announcement and "please don't let your children discover science this way."Meanwhile, Rizz is running on absolutely nothing because he's preparing for wisdom tooth surgery immediately after the show. No breakfast. No coffee. Questionable hydration. You can practically hear the hunger affecting his decision-making throughout the episode... especially once the games begin.And speaking of games...Rizz Show Password completely unravels in spectacular fashion.What should have been a straightforward round somehow becomes one of the funniest train wrecks in recent memory. One password somehow requires references to Harper Lee, books, movies, lawyers, and eventually complete surrender before anyone lands on "Mockingbird." Then everyone immediately forgets how clues work all over again.Watching the crew try to stay calm while the guesses drift further away from reality is exactly why this daily comedy show has become part of so many morning routines. The frustration is real. The sarcasm is relentless. The laughs are completely earned.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Man charged with throwing rocks at cars on I-64 in St. Louis found guilty of the same crime years agoIndiana man charged with arson cut off genitals, set them on fireFlight instructor jumps to his death during lesson, leaving student pilot to land plane by herselfFlorida woman tells police she knows nothing about drugs that allegedly fell out of her ‘jail purse'Colonel Sanders' Bow Tie Is Being Auctioned Off And Everything You Thought You Knew About It Was A LieNew York Times names the best regional hot dog in the countryThe ‘Littlest Juggalo Fox' Is Real and He's Unbearably AdorableA ‘great' Detroit father's final wish gets granted — as helicopter drops money and rose petals from the skyThe Internet Just Listed The 43 Whitest Phrases Of All TimeDoctors issue warning over massively popular toy that's hospitalizing children with excruciating injuriesThis Little-Known Type Of Fun Might Be The Secret To A More Fulfilling LifeVegas Little League president spent $65K in team funds on strip clubs, casinos and male enhancement pills: reportQR Codes Are Now Habitual.

Try a practice in accepting difficult feelings like anger or irritation to help keep your cool, feel better overall, and find calm with contemplative social scientist Eve Ekman. How To Do This Practice: Settle with your breath: Take a few slow, deep breaths, lengthening your spine as you inhale and relaxing your face and body as you exhale. Notice your body: Scan your body with curiosity and observe any sensations without trying to change them. Recall a mild frustration: Bring to mind a recent situation that made you feel slightly irritated or frustrated. Release the story: Let go of the memory and focus only on where you feel the emotion in your body. Give the emotion space: Allow the sensations to exist without judging or resisting them, noticing how they naturally shift over time. Close with kindness: Take one final breath and remind yourself to meet future moments of anger with curiosity, acceptance, and compassion.
