Back in 2024, the BMJ revealed how more than half of the members of the UK government's Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition, had declared financial interests with food and drinks companies. A tightening of the rules followed, but two years after our initial investigation, we have returned - and we found that nearly a third of nutrition advisors still have significant ties to the food industry. Chris Van Tulleken, professor of infection and immunology at University College London, and author of the book “Ultra Processed People”, joins us to explain why he thinks ongoing industry ties are bad for the UK's health. Also this week. We have tight regulation of medical tech in the UK, but new AI tools don't fit neatly into that existing process - and so the government has set up a National Commission on the Regulation of AI in Healthcare, Alastair Denniston, and Henrietta Hughes, who headed that commission, join us to explain how AI should be monitored, how we can ensure it's safety, and who should be responsible when something goes wrong. Reading list: A third of UK government's nutrition advisers are still paid by food industry, including Coca Cola and Nestlé National Commission into the Regulation of AI in Healthcare: Recommendations for a future regulatory framework

Nearly half of the global agriculture market is controlled by four companies. This level of concentration - driven by decades of mergers and poor regulation - has allowed agribusiness “titans” to dominate the farming sector. Alasdair talks to Dr Jennifer Clapp, author of a new book about corporate domination of the farm sector and why it matters. Alasdair and Jennifer discuss how and why mass-merging has led to market distortions and high prices, and what solutions could improve the state of the sector. Dr. Jennifer Clapp is a Professor at the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability at the University of Waterloo, Canada. She is a member of the International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems and the Scientific Advisory Committee of the UN Food Systems Coordination Hub.

How big is too big? When it comes to corporate concentration many observers raise concerns about the tech industry. However, in the new book, Titans of Industrial Agriculture: how a few giant corporations came to dominate the farm sector and why it matters, political economist Jennifer Clapp draws attention to the overwhelming shadow a small handful of transnational corporations cast over the global agricultural sector. Professor Clapp argues that these corporations hold concentrated power over the agricultural sector that keep industrial agricultural practices entrenched in patterns of production, despite the concerns of the social, ecological and health impacts to society. She explains how we got to this point and what it might take to make changes. Jennifer's work at the intersection of the global economy, food security, and food systems, and the natural environment, looks specifically at issues of global governance. She is currently a member of the International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems, and a member of the Scientific Advisory Committee of the UN Food Systems Coordination Hub. Interview Summary Norbert - Jennifer, let's just jump right in and I'd love for you to help our listeners understand a little bit more about your book. You write about corporate concentration in the agricultural input sector. Can you explain what this involves and what products are we really talking about? Yes. The book is about what we call the agricultural inputs industry. And that's really four different product types typically, and maybe a fifth that we can talk about. So, one of them is farm machinery, and that's really referring to things like plows and tractors, harvesters, etc. That kind of machinery on the farm. The second industry is the fertilizer industry, which is all about, you know, the nutrients that we bring to the soil through fertilizer products like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash. And the seed industry. That's another industry that is a key input for farmers. And then also pesticides. And when we talk about pesticides, we're referring to things like insecticides, chemicals that kill insects, but also chemicals that kill weeds and fungus. And so those are the four sort of big inputs that I talk about in the book. But also, the book covers a fifth input, an emerging input, which is data. And this is, especially as we're seeing the datafication and digitalization of farming. Increasingly data has now become a commodity that is bought and sold as an input into farming. Norbert - Great. I have to ask, what drew you to the input industry? I mean, let's be honest, that's not the thing that most people get excited about. Why should we be concerned? Yeah, that's a great question. I've actually had a very long interest in the seed in chemical industry. That goes way back to the start of my career because I did studies in agriculture for my PhD dissertation. But then I got quite interested in toxic waste and then that sort of drew me to this question of the global pesticide trade. And when I learned that, you know, oftentimes, like in the US there might be a banning of a pesticide that's no longer in use. But it was still being traded globally. And this, I found this very fascinating and how that industry worked. And that kind of drew me into understanding the connections between seeds and chemicals. And then when the digitalization of farming came along and in recent decades it became really clear that it wasn't just chemical and seed industry involved in that digitalization. It was also the fertilizer and the farm machinery sector. It made me want to understand the interconnections between these industries. I know it's like, maybe a bit specific, but they have huge consequences in terms of the way our food systems look like. And so that really drew me to understand where did these inputs come from? And why are they controlled by just a few large companies? Erika - Jennifer, I want to ask you a question about why this sector, especially related to the inputs, is so important when we're talking about food systems. And especially their social and ecological dimensions. And specifically in the book, you tease out many of the social and ecological costs of inputs such as pesticides. Also the social and ecological consequences of even farm machinery. So it would be great if you could elaborate on their importance. Thanks, Erika. That's a great question and that's part of the reason why I was really drawn to study these inputs. Because I'm in a school of environmental studies, I'm very interested in these interconnections between food systems and environmental outcomes. I was really interested in learning more about where these industries came from, and as I was teasing out where they came from. And how they became dominated by such large companies, I also learned in much more depth about the ecological consequences of these inputs. I can just say a little bit about some of them because these consequences are so big that we almost forget to talk about them. They become embedded in the product itself. And so, one example is farm machinery. Farm machinery was originally seen as quite revolutionary and that it allowed farmers to harvest their fields much more quickly than they used to be able to before. But that also meant then that to make the equipment efficient and pay for them they might as well extend the size of their farm. And as farmers extended the size of their farm, in the US anyway, they moved west and displaced its indigenous people from the land, in terms of taking that land for farm production. But also, as farms began to consolidate and get larger, as mechanization continued, it also displaced others from the land. Poor farmers, black farmers, those who were renting land and didn't have access to their own. And so, people who were marginalized and we still considered marginalized in society today, were really being displaced from the land as a direct consequence of farm machinery. It's not that farm machinery is like necessarily something that we want to do away with today, but I think we need to recognize those historical connections. And really understand that when, you know, you see a book for a small child about farming and there might be a picture of a farmer and it's usually a white guy sitting on a tractor. We can forget that image has a lot of baggage associated with it in terms of displacement and inequality. And I think we need to recognize that. But it does not just stop there. There's also plowing disturbs the soil, heavy machinery compacts the soil so it can harm fertility of the soil as well. And the machinery part of the equation has long been a source of inequality in terms of being very expensive for farmers. It's been one of the main reasons farmers have often been driven into debt. Farm machinery might have been liberating in one sense to allow increased production, but it did come with costs that we should acknowledge. We also need to recognize the ecological and social costs associated with the fertilizer industry. And this industry goes way back to the 1840s and we saw the rise of the guano trade. And we can think immediately of the working conditions of the workers who were digging the guano in the Chincha islands of Peru. And often they were coming from Asia and facing really harsh working conditions. But then when we saw the rise of synthetic nitrogen in the early 20th Century, the cost shifted in a way towards the cost of fossil fuels. The huge amount of natural gas used in the synthesis of nitrogen. And also, the climate consequences of the nitrous oxides that come from the application of synthetic nitrogen into the soil. So again, there's like enormous ecological and social impacts from that particular input. Similarly, when we talk about seeds, the hybridization of seeds in the 1920s and 1930s also raise huge concerns about plant genetic diversity. And we know that in the last century or so we've lost around 75% of plant genetic diversity for crop genetic diversity. And this is because of the way in which we started to see the uniformity of the genetic makeup of seeds. The monocultural planting of seeds really reduced that kind of diversity. And then intellectual property protection on seeds that came with the hybridization of seeds also led to a decreased ability of farmers to save their own seed and exchange their own seed with their neighbors. So again, social ecological costs. And finally, when we talk about pesticides, we have seen enormous issues with respect to pollution runoff. This kind of bioaccumulation of these toxic chemicals that have enormous health consequences. So, all of these inputs have very large impacts in terms of their social and ecological costs. And we can even extend that to the issue of data today. There's a lot of concern about data platforms for digital farming where farmers are signing away the rights to the data that are coming from their own farms. And they don't have the kind of interoperability with other data sharing systems. And there's also a lack of clarity about who owns that data. So again, there's big issues with respect to these inputs and how they are affecting both social and ecological dynamics within the food system. Erika - Thank you for helping us understand the social and ecological impacts of these inputs into the farming industry. Norbert - This is a really rich conversation and I want to understand a little bit more. There's a big part of your text that's about the concentration in the input sector. What does it look like today and was it always this way? That's a great question because it's almost a trick question because we tend to assume that this high level of concentration that we see today is something that's new. But what I found in my research is that the high degree of concentration actually has a long history that goes back about a century or more in some cases. And when we're looking at each of these sectors, the farm machinery, for example, is controlled. Most of the market is controlled by about just four firms. And they control around 50% of the global market. But when you look specifically at national markets in the US, for example, John Deere, you know, the largest company that makes farm machinery, it controls over 50% of the tractor market. So that's just one firm alone. It's similar dynamics when we look at fertilizer, seeds and pesticides and fertilizer, for example. Just two firms control a hundred percent of North American potash production. The four key companies control a large amount of the global fertilizer trade. In seeds, it's also very similar and in pesticides. In the seeds and pesticides that's especially interesting because since the 1980s and 1990s, the seed and pesticide companies actually merged with each other. We can't even say there's a set of seed companies and a set of chemical companies. It's actually seed and chemical companies. That's one set. And they control around 60% of the global seed market and around 70% of the global pesticide market. And that's really what prompted me to want to work on this book is that after 2015, there was a set of mergers in the seed and chemical sector that concentrated those firms even further. They used to be dominated by six firms. We used to call them the Big Six, and then they had major mergers where Bayer bought Monsanto, Dow and DuPont merged and formed Corteva. Syngenta group was bought by Chem China, and then bought by Sino Chem, a big Chinese chemical company. And then BASF bought up all the bits that the other companies were forced to sell to pass regulatory hurdles. And so, we ended up with a Big Four. And these companies produce both seeds and chemicals and have a quite an enormous impact in terms of their market dominance. Norbert - Wow. This is really important and I think it's a topic that many of us who look at the food industry aren't paying attention to. And I'm really appreciative of you laying out this concentration that's taking place. Jennifer, when reading the book, I was really struck by the fact that this is not just a book about the farmers themselves and the farming industry and the companies that provide the inputs. But you also touch upon the role of universities and university science and scientists; and also the role of government in helping to fuel or seed innovation in this sector. And, you know, here I was hoping you could talk about this important role for universities and also the government given that we're in a current moment where we're seeing a retrenchment from investments by government, and also the ability of universities to continue to seed innovation. So I was hoping you could share some of your insights. Yes, it's certainly an interesting time on the landscape of spending on innovation and with a retrenchment of state pulling back away from supporting technological innovation and other innovations. And that's certainly true in the farm sector, and that's very different from the situation if we go back to the 1800s and see, as you mentioned, the role that the state played in terms of really trying to support innovation in these sectors. And what I argue in the book is that these firms, they got big in the first place, and they were able to consolidate in the first place, through a series of what I call market technology and policy factors. And it's kind of messy. I put them in these three big categories. But in terms of these market factors, that's what most people tend to think about when they think, 'oh, a firm got big. Maybe it's just more efficient. It's able to produce products more cheaply and therefore it just grew to be big.' And that's much more complicated than that of course. And that's because, as you said this role of technological change in which universities have played a really important role. And government support and throughout history in the US, a lot of the book focuses on the US because we have good information and data there. And the US set up the land grant college system really to support development in the agricultural sector. And that gave us, you know, a lot of the innovations that led to, for example, the hybridization of seeds. And the corporations that took up that innovation that the state supported through university research, those firms also work directly with universities in many instances, to have these kinds of collaborative relationships, to develop, herbicides, to develop seeds, to develop further farm machinery, etc. So that role of technological innovation is really important, and that innovation doesn't just come from nowhere. It doesn't just pop up. It doesn't just show up one day. Right? It comes from investment. Investment in universities and research and development. And so that has been a really important strand to develop this kind of industrial agriculture. And now we know from university research, etc., that there are some problems associated with it. Yet it's proving hard to get that kind of funding to spur a new transformation towards a more sustainable agriculture because we're not giving that kind of state support, and support to universities to do that research and innovative work to lead us towards more sustainable agriculture. So, I think there's a lot there that we need to work on. And that's some of the recommendations that I make at the end of the book. Is that we need to shore up that kind of public investment in innovation, in alternative systems to address some of the problems. So just let me tag on another question from that. Just what are the consequences then for having just a small number of firms dominating this sector and no longer having these investments in innovation? Yeah, so what we're seeing increasingly as the state has pulled away from supporting agricultural research, is that most of that agricultural research now is being done by private corporations. And the big concern there is that as you have a smaller and smaller number of very large firms dominating in the sector, their incentive to innovate actually weakens. It weakens because if there's not a lot of players in the marketplace that are doing innovative work, there's just not a lot of competition. And so why would you innovate if you don't have to? If you're already a monopoly and you're able to sell your product, there's not a lot of incentive to innovate in a way that might then decrease the sales of your old products. And so, what we're seeing is a shift in innovation from the private sector, away from these kinds of transformative innovations and much more towards what we call defensive innovations. They're innovating in ways that actually enable them to sell existing products. And many would say that the rise of agricultural biotechnology was actually that kind of a defensive innovation. It was modifying seeds to make them resistant to the application of existing herbicides. And so there was innovation, but it was actually spurring further sales in an existing product. And part of the reason for that was that it became very expensive for these companies. The regulatory hurdles became quite expensive for them to develop new herbicides. And so, they were like, 'oh, it's cheaper and faster to work with seeds. Why don't we do it this way and then we'll continue to sell the herbicides.' Which by the way, got them a lot more profit than selling the seeds. So that's why they bought up a lot of the seed companies and really consolidated in that period. And there's a longstanding concern among competition regulators, the regulators that try to prevent a huge concentration in the economy, about this question of innovation. And it's very relevant in the agricultural sector. There's this sense that if you allow too much concentration to happen, it can dampen that innovation and that takes away that dynamic, innovative spirit within the sector. It's definitely a big concern. Norbert - Jennifer, I really appreciate this. Earlier in my career I was a part of some research related to biotechnology and innovation that happens there. And one of the things that I learned about is this idea of building thickets. These sort of patent thickets where you create a series of patents that actually make it difficult for others to be able to innovate in that same way. There are these real challenges of this kind of defensive innovation. And that's just one of the challenges that you bring up in the book. And I am interested in understanding, as sort a last question, what are some of the recommendations? You mentioned public sector funding of agricultural research and many of my colleagues in my discipline have said we need more research for agriculture. Are there other areas of recommendation to address some of the concerns you raised in the book? Thanks, Norbert. Yes, definitely. And I definitely do call for greater public support for agricultural research. And that's something within the agricultural sector. And I think there we really need to focus efforts on alternative agricultural production methods. For example, agroecology, which tries to reduce the amount of external inputs, not to increase them, by using nature's own processes to achieve the same functions of diversity and pest control, etc. And what's troubling is that when the firms don't have that incentive to innovate, you know, they're definitely not going to innovate in ways that would reduce their profits. They're not going to do that. The public sector has to step in if we want to see that kind of research done. But we also need measures outside of that food and agriculture system that will benefit food and agriculture. One area is stronger antitrust policies. Policies that would prevent further mergers and acquisitions that would allow those firms to continue to get bigger and bigger. Those antitrust policies are used largely, we've got merger guidelines, for example, in North America. And in Europe, when two firms want to merge, they have to get regulatory approval to do so. And those merger guidelines really walk the regulators through what would be a merger that might dampen competition, that might weaken innovation, you know, that kind of thing. It's important that we make those rules stronger. They had become progressively weaker after the 1980s. There was this move in the regulatory space that was this kind of idea that maybe it's okay if firms get really, really big because they can benefit from economies of scale. Maybe they can bring down consumer prices and maybe we shouldn't worry so much about these other areas of control. And there's been a bit of a shift in view around this in recent years where we've seen the rise of concern about these very big companies, especially with what we see with the big tech companies taking control over all these aspects of our lives. And people are saying, wait a minute, maybe we don't want to have this just a few companies controlling so much of our lives. And so, you know, we need to think about other ways to enforce antitrust policies to make them stronger so that we foster more competition and not just focus on whether something's more expensive or not. And that's, I mean, it's a bit of a hard thing to explain to some people. Obviously, people want to see lower prices. But the idea that we have to get across is that when competition dies, when it's not there, that's when the monopoly can really raise prices. And so, we need to have that competitive marketplace in order to spur innovation and also to bring prices down. That's really important and that's a kind of agenda item that's involves food and agriculture, but it's outside of the food and agriculture sector. It encompasses more. And another area where I think we can do more is to reign in the kind of undue corporate influence on the policy process. And that's arising out of a concern that as we're seeing fewer and fewer dominant companies in the food sector, and in other sectors as well, they tend to gain more political power to influence the policy and governance process. And so, what we're seeing is heightened lobby activity. Sponsoring of scientific studies and yes, coming back to the question about universities. But as corporations get bigger, they can shape science in ways that can help them win regulatory approval for their products. We need broader policies on conflict of interest to prevent large companies from taking over the policy process. And I know that's a really salient topic in the US right now, given what's going on in the broader politics. And I think it is a broader politics issue that needs to be seriously addressed if we want to support a more transformative form of food and agriculture. These kinds of policies like stronger antitrust, better conflict of interest policies, and also support for public agricultural research are all really important steps. I don't think any one of them on their own is going to do the trick in terms of spurring this desperately needed transformation in our food systems. But together, I think, they can bring us closer to that goal.

In this episode we're joined by economist Gene Tunny and activist-scholar Anitra Nelson to ask whether degrowth can save the planet, or if we should stay the current economic course. As recently as 150 years ago, pretty much everyone was living in what we'd now call extreme poverty. Thanks to capitalism, that rate is now just 9%, with a reduction of 38% in the last 30 years alone. So what's the problem? Well, for one thing, we've been plundering the natural world to fuel our growth, with little regard for its limitations. And it's come back to bite us. A regular economist might say – no problem. Let's just price in the cost of climate pollution, and natural capital, recognising that we'll need governments to take the lead. But there's a growing challenge to market-centrism from a number of movements who share a belief that a bit more government regulation is not going to get to the root of the problem; our erroneous assumption that the natural world is limitless.Degrowth argues that we can't save the planet, or end the systemic ills of capitalism like inequality, using the tools that created the problem in the first place. That our addiction to growth needs to be cut at its roots. It argues for a paradigm shift which sees wellbeing decoupled from economic growth. It envisages a different way of being, of caring and relating to each other, of flourishing itself, that's in harmony with our more noble instincts, unperverted by our current system of exploitation.

Under-nutrition harms health, but so does over-nutrition. The Bill and Melinda Gate's foundation has just released their Goalkeepers' report - highlighting the detrimental impact that poor nutrition is having on children's health. Rasa Izadnegahdar, director of Maternal, Newborn, Child Nutrition & Health at the foundation joins us to explain how they are targeting nutritional interventions. Also this week, a new investigation in The BMJ has found that the UK government's Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition - the people who help guide the UK's nutrition policy - have competing interests with the food industry. We hear from Chris van Tulleken, University College London; Rob Percival, the Soil Association; and Alison Tedstone, chair of the Association for Nutrition.

Description: Co-hosts Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and co-host Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist living with EoE who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, have a conversation about the latest findings from the EGID Partners Registry. In this episode, Ryan and Holly discuss with Dr. Elizabeth Jensen two studies drawn from data obtained by EGID Partners Registry questionnaires. One study focuses on extraintestinal pain experienced by patients living with EoE and other eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs). The second study considers vitamin and iron deficiencies reported by patients living with EoE and other EGIDs. Dr. Jensen hints at connected research she would like to pursue next. Listen for more information about extraintestinal pain, vitamin deficiencies, EoE, and EGIDs.

He and co-host Holly Knotowicz will talk about the latest findings from the EGID Partners Registry. [1:28] Holly introduces Dr. Elizabeth Jensen, an Associate Professor at the Wake Forest School of Medicine and an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Medicine at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. [1:58] Dr. Jensen has been working on research related to eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases since she was in graduate school. [2:11] Dr. Jensen's background is in maternal and child health. She was interested in how early life exposures alter colonization of the gut microbiome and how that can lead to immune dysregulation. [2:33] Dr. Jensen became interested in EoE and eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases because her family members had been affected by these conditions and researchers knew next to nothing about the pathogenesis of these conditions. [2:52] Dr. Jensen's early research explored early life exposures that relate to the development of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. [3:02] That research paved the way for a variety of ongoing research studies in Denmark, the U.S., and through the Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease Researchers (CEGIR). [3:30] The Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGID) Partners Registry is a registry of individuals who have been diagnosed with any one of the eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases or multiple ones. [4:21] The registry is also for individuals who haven't been diagnosed. The EGID Partners Registry gives a voice to individuals who are living with these conditions, in terms of directing where we go with research and asking patient-centered questions. [4:58] To participate in the registry, go to EGIDPartners.org and register. Once you have registered you will receive a link to a questionnaire. The questionnaire can seem long. [5:23] After the first questionnaire, the registry sometimes asks for updates to your baseline information and asks new questions that have been suggested by others. [5:45] The EGID Partners Registry has a Scientific Advisory Committee, and patient advocacy groups, including APFED, physicians, and researchers, who direct where to go with the rich data that has been collected. [6:07] Some of the questions are specific and asked by registry members with individual interests. Some of the questions are directed by input received by patient advocacy groups. [6:48] After collecting these data, EGID Partners analyzes them and disseminates them by presenting them at meetings to get information to providers and individuals affected by these conditions. [7:50] EGID Partners Registry did a study titled “Extraintestinal Symptoms of Pain in Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases” and published a poster on it. They explored joint pain, leg pain, and headaches, to see if they were related to an eosinophilic condition. [8:29] They studied pain severity and frequency as well as migraines. A high proportion of individuals reported pain. They studied those with EoE only and those with another EGID, including eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic enteritis, and eosinophilic colitis. [9:06] The second group included individuals with or without EoE. In general, patients who have one of these non-EoE EGIDS, with or without EoE, tend to experience more frequent pain and more severe pain. [9:30] They've also seen that result in looking at other comorbidities. It reinforces the idea that patients who have multi-segmental EGIDs, or one of these lower EGIDS, tend to experience, on average, more severe extraintestinal symptoms. [10:39] The three areas of pain highlighted on the poster were legs, joints, and headaches. This was based on feedback from patients saying, “This is what we're experiencing, is it something that you could look into?” [10:48] It doesn't preclude the possibility that there may be other types of extraintestinal manifestations that we should be looking at in the future. [11:27] This study by the EGID Partners Registry feels very impactful to Dr. Jensen. It brings awareness to some of the challenges that individuals with these conditions are experiencing. Holly points out it's a way for patients to get access to experts. [12:20] In this study, the EGID Partners Registry also looked at what proportion of individuals were taking either over-the-counter pain management medications or prescription medication. [12:39] About the migraine headache pain, most of it was over-the-counter use, although some reported prescription medication. [12:54] Ryan grew up experiencing leg pain all the time. He attributed it to his other chronic disorders. It wasn't until some years ago at an APFED conference that he heard a physician mention leg pain. Ryan had never considered it as an EoE symptom. [13:38] One of the challenges the EGID Partners Registry has is that they don't have enough individuals registered to start dividing the sample up further, by age. Roughly two-thirds of the respondents were adults. [14:12] It's also hard to get kids to report accurately what they are experiencing. It often comes down to the caregiver reporting it to the EGID Partners Registry, which brings its challenges. [14:34] Ryan calls all patients listening to sign up with the EGID Partners Registry to allow the registry to get to some of these deeper questions. [14:47] Dr. Jensen adds that people often want to understand why these pains are connected to EGIDs. EGID Partners Registry doesn't know why. [15:02] There are underlying biological processes that could potentially contribute to this observation of the increased prevalence of extraintestinal pain manifestations. In the EGID population, there is the enrichment of connective tissue disorders and more. [15:36] There is also evidence that there are increased comorbidities associated with a more inflammatory milieu. That could contribute to these extraintestinal manifestations of pain. [15:55] Dr. Jensen hopes to bring greater awareness to patients and providers, honoring what the patient is experiencing and digging a little deeper to understand what may be going on for this patient. [16:17] EGID Partners Registry also did a study on vitamin deficiency and supplement use among patients with EGIDs. They looked at those who had been diagnosed with EoE alone and those who had another EGID, with or without EoE. [16:47] In this study, unlike with the pain manifestation, they didn't see a statistically significant difference between EoE alone and the other EGIDs. There was some higher proportion in those with the lower EGIDs, but it didn't reach statistical significance. [17:16] They saw a high proportion reporting physician-diagnosed vitamin deficiency, mainly Vitamin D and a few others. That suggests the need to screen patients for vitamin deficiency with a new diagnosis and when monitoring response to therapy. [18:28] There are reasons why there could be vitamin deficiencies. You may have a restrictive diet or be avoiding certain foods because you know they are going to bother you, or for the lower EGIDs, it may be that you're experiencing malabsorption. [19:04] Holly plans to send this study to the people she is working with. She will ask them to read it, and then work to get a baseline. [19:56] A patient could ask for this test from any provider. Dr. Jensen says if it helps them to bring the evidence from these papers, that's great; she hopes this empowers patients when they talk with their providers about the care that makes sense for them. [20:41] EGID Partners Registry compared those reporting a deficiency between those with EoE alone and those without EoE. Eighty-two percent of those with EoE reported a Vitamin D deficiency. About a fourth of each group reported a B12 deficiency. [21:27] Iron was another deficiency reported by 55% in the EoE group and 69% in the Non-EoE EGID group. Vitamins D and B12, and Iron were the top deficiencies reported. Many of the respondents reported they were taking vitamins or dietary supplements. [22:32] Dr. Jensen thinks a nice follow-up study to this would be to learn the proportion of respondents taking vitamin injections or infusions because of malabsorption issues with oral supplements. [22:37] Dr. Jensen thinks this study likely reflects an under-ascertainment of vitamin deficiency. A lot of patients aren't getting screened. We don't have the data yet because it's not a universal recommendation to screen for vitamin deficiencies. [23:01] Dr. Jensen thinks awareness and increased screening will be key. Then we can start thinking about how we mitigate this. [23:24] Patients did not report symptoms of vitamin deficiencies. Dr. Jensen thinks that's another good follow-up question. She stresses that it's important to screen for deficiencies whether or not symptoms of deficiencies are present. [24:06] Holly considers her patients with various symptoms of vitamin deficiencies and wants to get on the website and ask questions. Dr. Jensen tells her there is a link on the registry site where you can suggest a question. She asks Holly to suggest a question! [24:30] Patients were asked if they have ever had a vitamin deficiency and were also asked if they currently take vitamins or supplements. A vitamin pill is one type of supplement. [25:10] The study also looked at the use of a variety of complementary and alternative medicine approaches that patients turn to because they're not getting adequate relief from traditional approaches to addressing their conditions. [25:34] They saw a higher proportion of individuals with non-EoE EGIDs reporting the use of these kinds of alternative treatment approaches. Roughly a fourth of non-EoE EGID patients reported the use of a chiropractor, vs. 10% of EoE patients. [26:11] Roughly one-fourth of non-EoE EGID patients reported turning to different herbal approaches in trying to get some relief for their conditions. [26:49] Dr. Jensen says as a researcher, whenever she does a study, she is led to more questions. All of the research so far has opened the door to many more questions, including questions about individuals who don't have either EoE or another EGID. [27:20] Dr, Jensen wonders, is this extraintestinal pain unique to those who have EoE and non-EoE EGIDs? How do we best mitigate this? What does the workup look like for the patient coming in with joint pain or leg pain? [27:37] How can we understand the factors that contribute to this pain? How do we get providers thinking about screening for vitamin deficiencies so we have a better understanding of their prevalence in this patient population? [28:04] If patients are not absorbing vitamins orally, How do we mitigate this? How do we optimize their nutrition so they are not dealing with vitamin deficiencies which can lead to other consequences down the road? [28:24] The surprises are always, “What doors are getting opened as a result?” We've answered some questions but there are so many questions that we still need to answer. [28:56] Ryan asks if a correlation was found in these studies between vitamin deficiencies and extraintestinal pain. He notices that missing his vitamins correlates with more leg pain. Dr. Jensen asks Ryan to go onto the website and pose that question! [29:10] Dr. Jensen has not looked at the data in that way but she thinks it would be an interesting way to bring these two studies together and try to explain some of what they are observing. [29:21] Holly thanks Dr. Jensen for sharing her expertise and this fascinating research to help all EGID patients have less painful and better quality lives. [29:52] Dr. Jensen makes this request. “Please consider checking out the EGID Partners Registry website, joining, learning more about how you can contribute to this research, and introducing questions.” [30:04] “We're always looking for new questions and are excited to think about how we can partner with patients in addressing questions that matter to them. Help us continue to answer some of these critical questions.” [30:32] One topic Dr Jensen is interested in researching is the implications for reproductive health for having these conditions. Some research in another data source suggests potential implications. [30:54] EGID Partners Registry observed and reported this year that there may be some indication of a longer time to pregnancy and a lower proportion of EGID patients experiencing a pregnancy. They want to look at that and understand it better. [31:12] They want to understand it with more detail than they can get from the administrative data source with the initial questionnaire. EGID Partners Registry is pushing out a reproductive health history questionnaire now. [31:29] EGID Partners Registry needs individuals to join and respond to the reproductive health questionnaire to help them understand this more deeply and some of the findings they are seeing initially in some of these other data sources. [31:49] Ryan encourages listeners to learn more about Dr. Jensen's research and EGID Partners Registry by visiting EGIDPartners.org.

Content advisory: this episode makes mention of the sexual assault and murder of a child. Please take care if listening. In this special update episode of Admissible, Tessa Kramer returns to the mic to explore the aftermath of our 12-part series. Our investigation exposed the Virginia state crime lab's mishandling of a whistleblower's allegations against Mary Jane Burton, the lab's long-time Chief Serologist. Since our initial reporting, the Virginia Department of Forensic Science and its Scientific Advisory Committee have taken steps to confront the fallout. This episode highlights the case of Marvin Grimm, who spent 45 years in prison. The egregious nature of Burton's flawed evidence in this case not only clears Grimm's name, but also underscores the urgent need for the lab to take more drastic action in responding to our concerns about Mary Jane Burton.

In this week's episode of "Pushing the Limits I had the privilege of interview world renown cancer researcher Professor Thomas Seyfried the author of over 150 peer reviewed publications and the author of the book "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease" For 30 years Professor Seyfried has been in the trenches as a geneticist and biochemist studying cancer cells and working out the intricacies of how to stop them proliferating. He says there are two primary fuels that cancer cells use in their abhorrent metabolism, Glucose and Glutamine and that if we can cut the fuel supply of these two things to the cancer cells we have a powerful non toxic way of killing cancer cells. He and colleagues designed the Press-pulse: a novel therapeutic strategy for the metabolic management of cancer and in this interview we dive into his latest research and what you can do if you have cancer or want to lower your chances of getting cancer.

Is There A Greater Risk Of Brain Cancer From Cell Phone Use For Younger People? Dr. Thomas Seyfried, • Contact: thomas.seyfried@bc.edu • Book – Cancer as a Metabolic Disease #ThomasSeyfried#Cancer #MetabolicDisease Dr. Thomas Seyfried, is a professor and author publishing a groundbreaking book; Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer.This book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited. This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requiring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. Support for this position is derived from critical assessment of current cancer theories. Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate. The book also provides extensive information showing that cancer can be best defined as a mitochondrial metabolic disease rather than as a genetic disease. This new concept has implications for the development of new non-toxic cancer therapies including the ketogenic diet. Experts in the cancer research field have praised this comprehensive study as one of science's hottest topics. Dr. Thomas Seyfried received his Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry from the University of Illinois, Urbana.

GBM And Other Stage 4 Cancers Should Not Be Considered Terminal If Treated With Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy Dr. Thomas Seyfried, • Contact: thomas.seyfried@bc.edu • Book – Cancer as a Metabolic Disease #ThomasSeyfried#Cancer #MetabolicDisease Dr. Thomas Seyfried, is a professor and author publishing a groundbreaking book; Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer.This book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited. This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requiring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. Support for this position is derived from critical assessment of current cancer theories. Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate. The book also provides extensive information showing that cancer can be best defined as a mitochondrial metabolic disease rather than as a genetic disease. This new concept has implications for the development of new non-toxic cancer therapies including the ketogenic diet. Experts in the cancer research field have praised this comprehensive study as one of science's hottest topics. Dr. Thomas Seyfried received his Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry from the University of Illinois, Urbana. He did his undergraduate work at the University of New England, where he recently received the distinguished Alumni Achievement Award. He has a Master's degree in Genetics from Illinois State University. Thomas Seyfried served with distinction in the United States Army's during the Vietnam War and received numerous medals and commendations. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Neurology at the Yale University School of Medicine and then served on the faculty as an Assistant Professor in Neurology. Other awards and honors have come from such diverse organizations as the American Oil Chemists Society, the National Institutes of Health, The American Society for Neurochemistry, and the Ketogenic Diet Special Interest Group of the American Epilepsy Society. Dr. Seyfried previously served as Chair, Scientific Advisory Committee for the National Tay-Sachs and Allied Diseases Association and presently serves on several editorial boards, including those for Nutrition & Metabolism, Neurochemical Research, the Journal of Lipid Research, and ASN Neuro, where he is a Senior Editor. Dr. Seyfried has over 150 peer-reviewed publications and is the author of the book “Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer (Wiley Press).” To Contact Dr Thomas N.

The Plant Free MD with Dr Anthony Chaffee: A Carnivore Podcast
Professor Thomas Seyfried has published over 150 peer reviewed studies in biology and cancer biology and has verified Nobel Prize Winner Otto Warburg's assertation that cancer is a metabolic disease of the mitochondria, not a genetic disorder. If we misunderstand the origin of the disease, the treatment is going to be wrong as well, and this is exactly what has happened. Ever think about why the cancer rates have tripled in the past 40 years? Well, this is why. Thomas N. Seyfried received his Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry from the University of Illinois, Urbana, in 1976. He did his undergraduate work at the University of New England, where he recently received the distinguished Alumni Achievement Award. He also holds a Master's degree in Genetics from Illinois State University. Thomas Seyfried served with distinction in the United States Army's First Cavalry Division during the Vietnam War and received numerous medals and commendations. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Neurology at the Yale University School of Medicine and then served on the faculty as an Assistant Professor in Neurology. Other awards and honors have come from such diverse organizations as the American Oil Chemists Society, the National Institutes of Health, The American Society for Neurochemistry, the Ketogenic Diet Special Interest Group of the American Epilepsy Society, the Academy of Comprehensive and Complementary Medicine, and the American College of Nutrition. Dr. Seyfried previously served as Chair, Scientific Advisory Committee for the National Tay-Sachs and Allied Diseases Association and presently serves on several editorial boards, including those for Nutrition & Metabolism, Neurochemical Research, the Journal of Lipid Research, and ASN Neuro, where he is a Senior Editor. Dr. Seyfried is also the author of the book, Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer (Wiley, 1st ed., 2012).

The Pathways to Cures initiative is focused on stopping MS progression, restoring lost function, and ending MS forever. This bold initiative has already been endorsed by more than 20 MS research and patient organizations around the world. And now, the publication of the Pathways to Cures Research Roadmap has brought us to a pivotal moment in the history of MS research. Joining me in this episode of RealTalk MS are two very special guests, Dr. Carol Whitacre and Professor Alan Thompson. We're taking a close look at what Pathways to Cures is all about, where we are on the Pathways to Cures Research Roadmap, and what this initiative means for people affected by MS.
