Eccoci qua! Bentornati a Life in the Garden!In questo episodio del podcast ho avuto il piacere di intervistare Samuele Santoni, da Porto Sant'Elpidio nelle Marche, titolare dell'azienda Il Mondo dei Semi. Con Samuele abbiamo parlato di come abbia iniziato nel 2020 questa sua attività di rivenditore di semi, che non produce lui direttamente, ma che comporta un meticoloso e attento lavoro manuale (pesatura dei semi con bilance professionali, chiusura, termosaldatura ed etichettatura delle bustine).Nell'episodio abbiamo anche affrontato molti temi legati alla semina: substrato di semina, epoca, calendario, raccolta e conservazione dei semi e molto altro ancora.Non vi anticipo altro, buon ascolto!Se volete supportare Life in the Garden:Condividete l'episodio, lasciate 5 stelle di valutazione al podcast su Spotify e attivate la campanella per ricevere le notifiche sui nuovi episodi!Grazie a tutti!Credits:Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/holly-jones/thirteenLicense code: 1OSYNWZKZR0N37FNMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/brock-hewitt-stories-in-sound/a-new-dayLicense code: ZQANLKALRUGW2ZSI

When we met nationally syndicated cartoonist Tim Jones (creator of the wildly popular "Sour Grapes" comic strip), we loved his dry wit, love of comedy, and sense of fearlessness. So, how did we thank him? By cutting off the first 20 minutes of a fun interview. Dave explains it all at the beginning, but there's still plenty to enjoy here, so have at it. -- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #sourgrapescomic #timjonescartoonist #aesopthedog www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

Healthy Busy Life - Cambia la tua vita, un'abitudine alla volta
La preadolescenza è un momento sfidante sia per i nostri figli che per noi genitori. Ci troviamo a dover gestire il loro cambiamento, ma anche il nostro in funzione del loro. Ecco quindi che questo periodo può diventare uno specchio di chi siamo veramente e aprire tante domande, anche scomode. In questo episodio ho invitato Giada Vettorato, parent coach ed esperta di preadolescenza, per parlare di quello che succede tra i 9 e i 14 anni, non solo nei nostri figli, ma in noi. Perché questa fase mette a nudo i pattern familiari che ci portiamo dietro, il controllo che usiamo per tenere a bada la paura, e la difficoltà di concederci libertà e scelte quando siamo le prime a non concederle a noi stesse. Se hai figli in questa età questo episodio ti darà strumenti concreti. Ma anche se i tuoi figli sono ancora piccoli, le domande che emergono ti riguardano comunque.
Attention petite alerte au dos ! Dans ce nouveau "journal de bord", Yohan Durand se retrouve avec une lombalgie en plein cycle de préparation : dos bloqué sur une séance de côtes, voyage en train douloureux, ostéo, chaleur, étirements et reprise prudente avant les championnats de France de cross de ce dimanche... Comment adapter l'entraînement sur trois jours pour retrouver du rythme sans se reblesser ? En parallèle, Benoît Boutron entre en affûtage avant le semi-marathon de Paris, le plus grand d'Europe. Dernière semaine : combien de kilomètres, quel type de VMA, quels rappels d'allure, comment gérer la fraîcheur et le mental ?

What if the reason you’re not healing isn’t that you need another diagnosis? 0:08 It’s that your cells aren’t receiving the right signals. Because the body doesn’t run on diagnosis, it runs on 0:16 communication. And peptides are one of the most powerful, most misunderstood 0:21 tools we have for cellular signaling, immune balance, tissue repair, gut 0:27 lining support, metabolic control, brain signaling, sleep cycles, and even sexual 0:35 wellness. Today, I’m going to do what most people won’t. Define peptides in 0:41 plain English for you. break them into categories by what they’re best at and 0:47 tell you which ones are FDA approved on the list and which ones are commonly 0:53 used off label or investigational with the evidence that actually says these 1:00 work. This is going to be a powerful episode and if you’ve ever felt like you’re hearing hype without clarity, 1:07 this one’s for you. So, as usual, grab your cup of coffee or tea and settle in 1:13 as we talk about peptides that can fit into your healing journey. We’re going 1:19 to have a short word from our sponsor. You know, we got to do that. That’s how we stay on the air here. So, we will be 1:26 right back after this. Did you know sweating can literally heal your cells? 1:32I nfrared saunas don’t just relax you. They detox your body, balance hormones, 1:37 and boost mitochondrial energy. I’m obsessed with my health tech sauna. And 1:42 right now, you can save $500 with my code at healthtechalth.com/drmuthqen25. 1:54 All right, here we go, guys. I am excited to dive into peptides with you. 2:00 So understanding peptides is foundational, right? And I’ve been 2:06 studying peptides now for about nine years. Um, and I find that they are 2:13 incredible. Um, so I want to break down for you what peptides actually are, what 2:19 they do, and some of the top peptides that are available today, and how they 2:25 can be utilized. Because I think it’s really important. And I think it’s it’s there’s a lot of confusion out there about what these things actually are and 2:32 are they safe? Are they not? When do we use them? What’s the science behind them? So, we’re going to dive in and 2:38 we’re going to talk about all things peptides. So, let’s get ready here. Here we go. So, peptides are short chains of 2:45 amino acids and they typically range anywhere from 2 to 50 amino acids and 2:51 they’re linked by peptide bonds. So think of them as the superglue that holds the amino acids together. They sit 2:58 between the amino acids and they are full proteins in terms of their size and 3:04 their complex structure. And what makes peptides particularly interesting in 3:10 medicine is their role as signaling molecules. They’re essentially the 3:15 body’s text messages carrying specific instructions to cells and tissues. And 3:21 unlike our proteins which often serve as structural roles or act as enzymes, 3:28 peptides typically function as hormones, neurotransmitters and growth factors and 3:33 they bind to specific receptors on the cell’s surfaces or within the cells and 3:39 they trigger this effect. It’s like a cascade effect of a biochemical reaction 3:45 that ultimately changes the cellular behavior. So basically, it’s changing 3:50 the way the body’s cell structure acts. And this is why peptides can be so 3:56 incredibly powerful and therapeutic when you introduce the right peptide signal. 4:02 Now, you could theoretically redirect cellular processes toward healing, 4:07 towards metabolism, immune balance, tissue repair. Any of those things can 4:14 be manipulated to do a certain thing once we add the peptide. The challenge 4:19 in peptide medicine though lies in distinguishing between those peptides that have been rigorously studied, 4:26 proven safe and effective and approved by regulatory bodies like the FDA versus 4:31 those that exist in what we call the gray zone of a promising clinical data. 4:36 But they really lack human validation so far. And this distinction is critical because the presence of a plausible 4:43 mechanism does not guarantee safety or efficacy in living humans. So, this is 4:50 really important and we’re going to dive in and look at some of the research on all of these different peptides that are 4:56 available and I’m excited to say there’s some amazing peptides being studied right now that unfortunately are not 5:01 available. But I can’t wait to see them hit the market for us because it is going to be a gamecher as far as health 5:09 and longevity. So there is a quality control issue and there is a hidden 5:14 variable in peptide medicine with this and it’s one of the most underappreciated aspects of peptide 5:21 therapy particularly for non-FDA approved peptides. It’s quality control. 5:26 When we discuss pharmaceutical medicines, we take for granted that the pill contains what the label says. Not 5:32 always true depending on where it comes from. You guys, if you’ve heard my episodes before talk about how many of our medications are made in China and 5:41 have been contaminated with other things, you will realize that that is not always true. So, just because it has 5:48 the FDA stamp of approval on the medication, it still does not necessarily mean it’s safe and we still 5:54 need to do our homework on it. So, sorry for digressing on you guys, but you know, when we get a medication, we we 6:00 think that what the amount says is what is there, doesn’t have contaminants, it’s manufactured with good 6:06 manufacturing practices. You’ll see that listed as GMP on the bottle, and it’s been stored properly, it’s been 6:12 maintained stable, and with research peptides and compounded formulations, 6:17 none of this can be assumed. So, I will share a story with you. There was a gentleman that was purchasing these 6:24 peptides online from a research facility and um did not know that they were 6:30 coming from China and he was ordering a particular growth hormone peptide and 6:35 after a little while he had he had done fine for the few first few bottles. After a little while he started having 6:42 some complications. He started getting really irritable and angry and ragy and 6:47 he didn’t quite know what was going on. And so he decided to go get some testing done. He had some blood testing done and 6:53 his testosterone level was over 5,000. So for those of you who know what testosterone level should be for a guy, 7:00 they really shouldn’t be any higher than about 1,00200 would be absolute max that we’d want to see. Now he was taking 7:06 testosterone but not to that degree. And prior to adding this peptide, his 7:12 testosterone was very stable. What they ended up finding out was the peptide that he was getting, whoever was 7:18 manufacturing it added testosterone to the peptide. They felt like if if it had growth hormone, that was great, but if 7:25 it had growth hormone and tes testosterone, all the better. And he didn’t know that. And this is the 7:31 problem that we can have with peptides if you don’t source them properly. if you’re not working with somebody that 7:37 knows how to source them and can prove that they are what they say they are. Um, I’m sure there’s a whole bunch of 7:42 studies out there too of people getting these peptides and paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for them over their 7:48 lifetime and finding out they were nothing more than just sterile water. So, you really do need to be careful 7:53 with your quality control. Now, this kind of leads us right into the next topic that we’re going to talk about and that’s the manufacturing question, 8:00 right? The FDA approved peptides are manufactured in facilities subject to 8:05 the FDA inspection rules following our GMP regulations and these facilities 8:11 must validate their manufacturing process, demonstrate consistency batch to batch, test for purity and potency. 8:18 They need to test for bacterial endotoxins and sterility and they need to maintain detailed records. So, when a 8:25 pharmaceutical company submits a drug application, the FDA inspects the manufacturing facility as part of the 8:32 approval process. If you’re getting peptides from a different country, none of that is happening. And there are some 8:38 ways for us to determine if that is what you’re getting. Typically, the rule of thumb is if your peptides are coming 8:44 with a different colored top, every one of them has a different colored top. Those are typically being sourced out of 8:49 China. I wouldn’t say that’s 100% but that’s kind of the rule of thumb that people follow. So compoundingies these 8:56 are thearmacies that make our bio identical hormones. They can make medications in any dose or strength or 9:02 route. There are thousands of them in every not that not in every state but 9:08 there are thousands of them around the country right now. So these compoundingies are registered as 503A 9:15 facilities. They do traditional compounding for individual prescriptions, right? Like they can make 9:20 thyroid, they can make LDN, they can make estrogen. You can also have a 503b 9:27 facility, which is an outsourcing facility. And these companies produce larger batches of products. They’re they 9:34 have some oversight, but they’re less stringent than for FDA approved 9:40 manufacturers. And state boards of pharmacy regulate a 503A pharmacy. And 9:45 the FDA can inspect the 503b facility, but doesn’t preapprove any of their 9:52 compounding products. So, they can inspect it, but they don’t approve them. So, research chemicals and these 9:58 suppliers operate essentially with no oversight. They explicitly market products for research use only, not for 10:06 human consumption to avoid FDA regulation. If they put that on their 10:12 product, they don’t have to comply to what the FDA is saying. And there is no required manufacturing strategies or 10:19 standards, no required testing, no required sterility assurance, and no enforcement mechanisms if products are 10:26 mislabeled or contaminated. So basically, they don’t have the liability, but that doesn’t mean that 10:31 all of them are badies or bad suppliers. It just means they don’t have to comply 10:37 to the FDA rules. Now, there are many of these companies that I’ve seen and I’ve talked to that do do a lot of this. They 10:44 do test their product for sterility. They do test their product to make sure it is what it says it is. They don’t 10:51 have to, but they do. So, if you’re going to decide to use a company that 10:56 has research only, not for human consumption, at least ask for their 11:02 proof of testing so that you know that the product you’re getting is what it says it is and that it’s clean. Because 11:08 this is where we run into the problem is in purity. So in purity peptide 11:13 synthesis can produce not just the targeted peptide but also related 11:19 peptides with deletions, substitutions, truncations or truncations of amino 11:25 acids. Sorry. And this high performance liquid we call it uh chromatography can 11:30 separate these related impurities and quality and quantify the actual target 11:35 of the peptide content. So a certificate of analysis is what you want to ask these companies for. This shows the HPLC 11:44 the testing mechanism with greater than 95% or ideally 98% purity which 11:51 indicates a higher quality product. So this certificate of analysis can be fabricated may not represent the 11:57 specific batch being sold. It happens. We need to know not everybody is honest. Not everybody, you know, does what they 12:03 say and it does what’s right. But at least you at least they’re giving you something and you have some security. 12:10 and then choose a company that was referred to by someone else that has done some homework as well. In in 12:16 commercial research, there’s independent testing and they research peptides and this has been really shocking 12:23 variability that they’ve seen. Some products contain 50% or less of the 12:29 claimed peptide and some contained primarily degradation of the product or manufacturing impurities and some 12:36 contained bacterial endotoxins at levels that could cause fever and systemic 12:42 inflammation if it was truly injected. And I would also worry with some of those problems, you know, depending on 12:48 what impurity or bacterial endotoxin was there. If you’re using a product to boost your immune system and your immune 12:54 system is already compromised, these bacterial endotoxins can actually make you sicker instead of what you want it 13:02 to do, which is making you better. So, sterility is always an issue with anything that is manufactured, 13:08 especially things that we’re doing as an injection. Peptides are intended for injection. They must be sterile. They 13:16 must be kept safe. And pharmaceutical manufacturers conduct this sterility testing on every batch. 13:22 Compoundingarmacies should conduct sterility testing particularly for high-risisk compounded 13:28 sterile preparations and research chemical suppliers may or may not conduct any testing. So injecting 13:35 non-sterile material can cause local infections, abscesses at the injection 13:41 site and or if the bacteria enters the bloodstream could potentially be 13:46 life-threatening and you could have sepsis. Now, excuse me. We saw this 13:52 happen in a compounding pharmacy uh gosh, it’s probably been 10 years ago 13:57 now, I think. um they unfortunately had a strep uh contamination in their 14:03 product and they weren’t testing it. It was a large compounding pharmacy out of Florida and they were making products 14:08 that were being injected into the joints and um these people got very very sick 14:14 and some of them died and um some of them got very very injured by this uh 14:21 complication that happened. So it’s not like this doesn’t happen. It does, but it doesn’t happen often. And that’s what 14:28 we have to know about. And so, when we’re talking with you guys about storage and stability, it’s really 14:34 important to make sure you maintain your peptides well. So, many peptides are unstable at room temperature. They 14:41 require refrigeration or freezing. We tell everyone to make sure you’re refrigerating your peptides. That way, 14:48 there’s no question about it. when it stays cold um it prevents or slows down 14:54 the process of uh bacteria growing in it. So some of these peptides actually 14:59 degrade very rapidly in the solution and they must be reconstituted immediately before use and reconstitution of the 15:07 peptides really has limited stability often just days to weeks not months. So 15:13 improper storage, temperature, um changes during shipping or prolonged 15:19 storage of a reconstituted product can lead to degradation into inactivity or 15:25 potentially even a harmful breakdown of the product itself. So if you have a product that’s been sitting in your 15:30 refrigerator for a month or two months or 3 months or 6 months, just throw it away. It’s not going to be any good. 15:37 you’re not going to actually get the peptide and the uh potency that you’re looking for anyway out of it and the 15:44 potential of you introducing an endotoxin, a bacterial endotoxin is quite high at that point. So you just 15:50 really don’t want to take the risk, excuse me. So what practitioners, what 15:56 should we do and what should patients do? Well, for any peptide therapy, we 16:03 want to source our verification. know where the peptide product comes from. Is 16:08 it an FDA approved product? Is it a 503b compounding? A research chemical 16:14 supplier? Is there a certificate of analysis? Request and review this COA. 16:20 And you want it to show purity greater than 95% but ideally greater than 98%. 16:27 You want that identity be identity to be confirmed by mass spectromedy. Uh 16:33 sterility testing should be done. Bacterial endotoxin testing should be done. Batch number matching of the 16:39 product that you received should be done. Proper storage. You want to know that this has been refrigerated or 16:46 frozen as directed once it’s been mixed. Look at the expiration dates for reconstituting your peptides. Track that 16:53 reconstitution date and discarded accordingly like we just talked about. Monitor for your adverse effects. Even 17:01 with the perfect quality control, monitoring for adverse effects is essential with questionable quality and 17:08 vigilance is really critical here. I know it’s frustrating for a lot of patients when they have to get several 17:15 bottles and they only last a week or two. right here, you guys. This is why 17:21 they only last a short period of time because once they’re mixed, they start 17:26 to degrade and they won’t be good and you won’t get the benefit from it. So, 17:31 it’s really important with these research peptides specifically, practitioners should recognize that all 17:38 recommending products without quality assurance violates the fundamental medical principle of first do no harm. 17:45 If a patient is determined to use research peptides despite counseling, providing guidance on quality 17:52 verification, requesting those COAs, using pharmaceutical grade sources when available, proper testing, this all 17:59 reduces harm, but doesn’t constitute necessarily that recommendation. Now, 18:06 that being said, today it’s very difficult to find peptides by the compoundingies because of what the FDA 18:13 has done. So most of the peptides that are available to us have been labeled 18:18 not for human consumption, not because they’re not good products, but because 18:25 of what the FDA did. And this is how these companies have been able to 18:31 continue to provide peptides to the medical community. And if you know you 18:36 have a good company, then you’re, you know, you’re still taking the risk, right? But at the end of the day, the 18:42 reason they’re doing that is to protect themselves from the FDA, from liability. Um, so just kind of know that there is 18:50 some talk in the community with um Bobby Kennedy that this is going to change and 18:55 they are going to bring peptides back to the compounding pharmacies. Now, we don’t know which ones they’re going to 19:01 bring back. Uh, will it be all of them? Will it just be some of them? What’s going to happen here? Um, is it going to 19:07 go to the pharmaceutical companies like our GLP1s did? We don’t know what that’s going to look like quite yet. Um, but it 19:14 is coming and that is positive news. So, let’s talk now about FDA approved 19:21 peptide medications. So, this is the metabolic revolution, right? GLP1 19:28 and our dual increeting agonists. This is an exciting time. GLP-1s are amazing. 19:35 Um, a lot of people are skeptical, a lot of people love them, a lot of people hate them. Whichever side of the fence 19:42 that you’re on, I understand. But I want to talk about the science of it today 19:48 and what it actually means for people. So, the story of GLP1 glucagon like 19:54 peptide one represents one of the most significant advances in metabolic 19:59 medicine in the past several decades. GLP-1 is an accretin hormone. It’s 20:05 gutder derived peptide that potentiates insulin secretion in response to food 20:11 intake. And the body naturally produces GLP-1 in the intestinal L cells, but it 20:17 rapidly degraded by the enzyme DPP4 giving it a halflife of only about 2 20:24 minutes. So this rapid breakdown made in therapeutically impractical until 20:31 research was developed and modified the analoges that resist the enzyme degradation. So for those people who 20:39 never feel full when they’re eating, never feel satisfied when they’re done, this is because their body is either not 20:46 producing enough GLP1 or it’s not getting the signal right. And this is a 20:51 leptin issue. This is an insulin issue. It’s a GLP-1 issue. It’s a complicated 20:56 issue. This is not anything that the person is doing wrong. It’s what is happening to their body. And so GLP1s 21:03 have really revolutionized this. So one particular GLP-1 that we have is 21:09 semiglutide. And this GLP-1 agonist is what changed everything in the world of 21:16 metabolic medicine. Semiglutide is marketed as ompic for type 2 diabetes 21:23 and it’s marketed as WGOI for chronic weight management. It is a modified 21:29 GLP-1 analog with 95 or sorry 94% amino acid sequence uh homology to human 21:37 GLP-1. So it means that it’s it’s just like our own GLP-1 that we make. This 21:42 modification includes specific amino acid substitutions and the addition of C18 21:50 a fatty acid chain which allows the peptide to bind to albumin. Now this 21:56 albumin binding dramatically extends the half-life to approximately one week 22:01 enabling one weekly dosing which is a major advantage over the earlier GLP-1 22:07 agonists that require daily or twice daily injections. The mechanism by which 22:13 semiglutide works is multiaceted. At the pancreatin level, it binds to GLP-1 22:20 receptors on the pancreatic beta cells enhancing glucose depending sorry 22:27 enhancing glucose dependent insulin secretion. This glucose dependency is 22:33 crucial. It means the peptide only stimulates insulin release when blood glucose is elevated. This dramatically 22:41 reduces the hypoglycemic risk compared to insulin or even uh sulfuras. 22:47 Simultaneously semiglutide suppresses glucagon secretion from pancreatic alpha 22:53 cells further improving glycemic control. This is really amazing because 23:00 over the years when we’ve used insulin, which is also a peptide by the way, you 23:05 had to dose it just right because if you didn’t, you would produce so much insulin that it would crash the blood 23:12 sugar and then somebody would have too low of a blood sugar. They’d be hypoglycemic and they’d have to eat more 23:18 sugar and then they’d have to modify the insulin again and the person would be going up and down, up and down, up and 23:24 down all day long. And that created a lot of problems for people and so this 23:30 helps to stabilize that so it is not such an intense change. Now in the GI 23:36 tract semiglutide delays the gastric emptying particularly pronounced during 23:41 the initial weeks of therapy. This slowing of the gastric emptying contributes to the sensation of being 23:48 full and early satiety that patients often describe. However, this effect 23:54 tends to attend to weight over time as the body adapts through the appetite 24:00 suppressing effects generally persist through central mechanisms. So, when we 24:05 talk about what is actually happening, we’re slowing that digestive process down. That’s why people aren’t so 24:11 hungry. It’s why they’re not eating so much. This is why people can develop constipation with these products because 24:17 it’s slowing the body’s digestive tract down. Now some people will call this 24:22 gastroparesis. Um gastroparesis is actually different. 24:28 It is when we lose control over what’s happening in the in the colon like the 24:34 nerves and things like that just stop working. I have never seen that with the GLP1s that we prescribe in micro doing. 24:42 um it’s been documented. It can happen, but again it a lot of it is dosing and a 24:48 lot of it is staying on top of your client and what’s happening and what’s going on and what you’re doing and making sure that they do have good 24:54 motility still. So a lot of these things can be mitigated if you have problems 24:59 with them. Now one of the most profound effects of semiglutide occur in the 25:05 central nervous system. GLP-1 receptors are widely distributed in the brain 25:10 particularly in the hypothalamus and the brain stem area where we are involved in 25:15 appetite regulation. So when when wilding and colleagues published their 25:20 landmark step one trial in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2021, 25:25 they demonstrated that participants receiving 2.4 4 milligrams of semiglutide weekly achieved an average 25:32 weight loss of 14.9% of their body weight over 68 weeks. Now, I want you 25:39 guys to really understand this. We’re talking roughly 15% body weight loss 25:45 over a year, longer than a year. 52 weeks is a year, right? This is 68 25:50 weeks. So, it took longer for them to lose. We’re not talking about giving 25:55 somebody a dose to lose 15% of their body mass in a month or two. That that 26:01 is not healthy for any of us. That is not what we’re talking about doing here. Now, they compared this to placebo and 26:08 the placebo was only 2.4%. So, that is a significant difference. 26:14 And even beyond the numbers, patients reported something very qualitatively different, a reduction in what’s now 26:21 called food noise. Everybody knows what food noise is. We’ve talked about this long before GLP1. It’s that craving. 26:28 It’s that part of your brain that just keeps thinking about I want to eat something. You know, that was actually 26:34 reduced and they didn’t expect to see that happen. Now, this refers to the constant mental preoccupation with food, 26:42 the intrusive thoughts about eating, the difficulty in feeling satisfied. Semi-glutide appears to appears to 26:49 modulate reward pathways in the misolyic system reducing hedonic eating and food 26:57 cravings. Now there are also great cardiovascular effects of semiglutide 27:02 that extend beyond weight loss. Uh the sustained six and select trials 27:07 demonstrated significant reductions in major adverse cardiovascular events uh 27:14 mace in high-risisk populations. The select trial published in 2023 showed 27:20 that semiglutide reduced cardiovascular death, non-fatal myioardial inffection 27:25 and non-fatal stroke by 20% in adults with overweight or obesity and 27:31 established cardiovascular disease but without diabetes. So this suggests that 27:37 mechanisms beyond glucose control and weight loss possibly including 27:42 anti-inflammatory effects, improvements in endothelial function and favorable 27:47 changes to lipid profiles. Now I will tell you the clients that I work with that are on GLP1, 27:53 they will tell you that their inflammation has been significantly reduced. We are also seeing really 28:00 amazing results in lipid profiles. um part of its weight loss, but there is a 28:06 component to this that is lowering the triglyceride levels because it’s related to sugar and how the body’s processing 28:11 it. And we’re seeing better profiles, less need for statins as a result of 28:17 that. If if you want to listen to my episode on statins, I have one on that. Uh they are not my favorite medication. 28:24 I think it’s overprescribed and overused um and not really affecting or 28:29 addressing the problem. So these things can really be helpful. There’s also some 28:34 uh ramblings going on with GLP-1s saying that they may be able to help with 28:40 addiction in the future because of where they’re finding it affecting the brain and how it affects the food noise and 28:47 the cravings that we have for food and the addiction for food. Could it potentially help with other addictions 28:53 down the road? We’ll have to wait and see on that one. So semiglutide’s FDA prescribing information also includes a 29:00 box uh boxed warning about thyroid sea cell tumors. So in rodent studies 29:06 semiglutide caused dose dependent and treatment duration dependent sea cell 29:12 tumors at clinically relevant exposures. So while it’s unknown whether or not 29:17 semiglutide causes uh thyroid cancer tumors in humans and the rodent thyroid biology 29:26 differs significantly from humans, the drug is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of 29:33 medillary thyroid carcinoma or in patients with multiple endocrine neopl neoplasia syndrome type two. it is 29:42 uh contraindicated for safety effects with that. Um I have seen endocrinologists okay GLP1s to be used 29:50 in patients who’ve had other forms of thyroid cancer just not the meillary 29:55 thyroid cancer. So there is possibility there. Now the most common side effects 30:00 are gastrointestinal. It’s nausea affects about 20 to 44% of patients 30:06 depending on the formulation with diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, and also frequently 30:13 reported in clinical trials. I see this in my clinic, too, especially dose dependent. Um, and it happens early on 30:20 when you’re first starting the medication, but seems to settle out over time. The one that I would add to this 30:26 that I don’t think they have on here is an increase in acid reflux. We also see that quite often uh especially in people 30:33 who suffer with acid reflux to begin with. Now these effects are typically most 30:40 pronounced during the escalation and they like I said often improve over time 30:45 but more serious but less common adverse effects include acute pancreatitis. 30:51 The medication needs to be discontinued immediately if this is confirmed. You can see some diabetic retinopathy 30:57 complications in patients with pre-existing retinopathy and acute kidney injury. Um, this usually happens 31:05 secondarily to dehydration from the GI effects. There are some gallbladder disease um that can occur and people who 31:13 have a sensitive gallbladder will describe uh discomfort with that. I’ve 31:18 even seen some people who’ve had their gallbladder out on GLP1s at the higher doses complain of similar pain that they 31:25 used to have when their gallbladder was in. So, really important to just kind of monitor these symptoms and work closely 31:32 with somebody that understands them and can be on top of them quite quickly if this happens. Excuse me. From an 31:39 integrative medicine perspective, semiglutide really represents a powerful tool, but it’s not a standalone 31:46 solution. Remember, the medication addresses one aspect of the metabolic dysfunction, the signaling systems 31:53 controlling appetite and glucose homeostasis, but it doesn’t address the root cause that led to the metabolic 32:00 disease in the first place. Patients who rely solely on the medication without addressing the ultrarocessed food 32:07 consumption, the ccadian disruptions, the chronic stress, the sleep apnea, or 32:12 underlying hormonal imbalances often experience weight regain when the medication is discontinued. 32:20 The drug is also not a substitute for addressing the emotional and psychological drivers of eating 32:26 behavior, including the unresolved trauma that may manifest as emotional eating. I think this is really important 32:33 because we don’t address the trauma issue enough with clients and we need to 32:38 be looking at that. There is a huge trauma effect out there these days that is I don’t want to say leading to or 32:45 causing but it is definitely contributing to chronic illness and it’s not being talked about enough. So we 32:52 really need to be talking about this and addressing this trauma aspect. Now the next GLP that one that I want to talk 32:59 about is trespathide. This is a dual agonist. It takes center stage. It is my 33:05 favorite GLP one. Trisepatide is marketed as Mangjaro for type 2 diabetes 33:11 and Zepbound for chronic weight management and it represents the next 33:16 evolution in increantbased therapy. This is a dual agonist a 39 amino acid 33:23 synthetic peptide structurally based on the human glucose dependent insulin tropic peptide so GIP sequence but 33:31 modified to activate both the GIP receptors and the GLP1 receptors. So the 33:37 addition of the GI GIP agonism to the GLP1 agonism appears to create this 33:46 synergistic effect that goes beyond simply adding the two mechanisms together. So the GIP like GLP-1 is an 33:55 increant hormone secreted by what is called the K cells in response to nutrient intake. It enhances glucose 34:02 dependent insulin secretion but it also effects on atapost tissue metabolism 34:09 potentially improving the insulin sensitivity in fat cells and influencing 34:14 how the body stores and metabolizes fat. So some research suggests that GIP may 34:20 also have effects on energy expenditure though this remains an area of 34:26 investigation. So basically what we’re saying is this drug may actually help 34:32 people who are insulin resistant or insulin sensitive, not just somebody who 34:38 has problems with glucose control. So, this is super exciting because it opens 34:43 up the door for all of these people for decades that we’ve been trying to manage with insulin resistance and trying to 34:50 prevent diabetes and honestly most of the time have been unsuccessful 34:56 unless you can keep your diet at 50 grams of carbs or less a day, which is extremely difficult. Um, and take some 35:04 supplements that may or may not work and or take some metformin that may or may not help. this drug actually really 35:11opens that up and helps in that capacity. So there was a clinical trial 35:17 called the surmount clinical trial which demonstrated that trespathide produces 35:22 even more substantial weight loss than semiglutide. In the surerount one trial published by uh J tree I might have said 35:31 that wrong. I apologize if I slaughtered your name and colleagues in the New York England Journal of Medicine in 2022. 35:38 Participants receiving the highest dose of trespide, which is 15 milligrams, achieved an average weight loss of 20.9% 35:47 of their body weight over 72 weeks, compared to 3.1% with placebo. This 35:54 level of weight loss approaches what’s typically only seen in beriatric surgery. So, this is amazing because if 36:02 this medication works and we don’t have to do beriatric surgery, stomach stapling basically, um, oh my gosh, it’s 36:11 amazing. There are so many complications and risks that go with stomach stapling and the different procedures that they 36:17 do these days. People don’t absorb their nutrients properly. They have to do liquid nutrients. It’s very complicated. 36:24 It’s very challenging. Many of these people gain their weight back. Um, and 36:30 this procedure is not fun to go through. So, if we could change that and change 36:35 the lives of people who’ve really been struggling, it is amazing. And I will tell you that I have seen this work. I 36:42 have seen people lose 100 150 pounds on these medications over a year or two 36:50 period of time. It is definitely slower than beriatric surgery on some standpoints, but that is okay. You don’t 36:56 want that rapid weight loss. It’s not good for you. It’s not healthy for you. It doesn’t look well. You know, we want 37:03 to do this safely and effectively in the best way that we can possibly do that for you. Now, the adverse effect profile 37:10 is similar to semiglutide. It’s dominated by gastrointestinal effects. 37:15 Nausea, diarrhea, decreased appetite, vomiting, constipation. These were all commonly reported in the surmount 37:22 trials. And like semiglutide, tricepide carries a blackbox warning regarding the 37:27 thyroid sea cell tumors based on the rodent data and it shares the same contra indications in patients with a 37:34 family history of thyroid cancer and men too. So the mechanism behind why 37:40 tepatide often produces more substantial weight loss than GLP-1. The agonism 37:45 alone remains under investigation, but it may relate to the complimentary effects on the different aspects of 37:51 energy homeostasis or to GIP’s effects on atapost tissue and potentially on 37:58 central central nervous system pathways that GLP1 alone doesn’t fully address. 38:03 Now patients often report even more profound reductions in food noise with tricepide compared to GLP1 and uh sorry 38:12 GLP1 the agonists through this is anecdotal and hasn’t been regularly 38:17 quantified in quality studies. So I’ve done both uh personally and in my 38:22 practice. I really like trespide better than semiglutide. For me I had too many side effects with semiglutide. uh I had 38:30 less side effects with trespathide. I also plateaued on semiglutide which I 38:35 didn’t really care for. And with Tresepide, I haven’t plateaued and I’ve been able 38:42 to lose about 25 pounds in um a year and a half and I’ve been able to maintain 38:49 that. Um and I continued to use it because I do have a strong family history of cardiovascular disease. And 38:56 if this could help me so that I don’t follow my family lineage with cardiovascular disease, I am all for 39:03 trying to do that. I’ve watched too many of my family members suffer from this. I’ve lost my dad at a very young age. I 39:09 lost my grandfather at a young age to it. All of their brothers to this. And I don’t want to be that same person. So 39:16 that is why I chose to do that. And I think it’s really important for us to take a look at that and understand that. 39:24 Now, I know this has been a really long podcast and I don’t typically do podcasts this long. I have a whole host 39:31 of information on additional peptides. So, I’m going to break this up for you 39:36 guys and I’m going to do another episode and we’re going to pick up where we left off here with these peptides so that we 39:43 can actually start to dive into different peptides as well. So, check 39:48 out my next podcast show when we’re going to dive into the peptides that 39:54 talk about sexual wellness, immune function, and all the other cool things 39:59 that we can do with peptides.

Neste episódio, Mayra Trinca fala sobre duas pesquisas que, ao seu modo, usam o som para estudar maneiras de enfrentamento à crise climática. Na conversa, Susana Dias, pesquisadora do Labjor e Natália Aranha, doutoranda em Ecologia pela Unicamp contam como os sons dos sapos fizeram parte das mesas de trabalho desenvolvidas pelo grupo de pesquisa para divulgação sobre esses anfíbios. Participa também Lucas Forti, professor na Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido do Rio Grande do Norte. Ele conta como tem sido a experiência do projeto Escutadô, que estuda a qualidade do ambiente da caatinga através da paisagem sonora. ____________________________________________________________ ROTEIRO [música] Lucas: É incrível a capacidade que o som tem de despertar a memória afetiva. Mayra: Você aí, que é ouvinte de podcast, provavelmente vai concordar com isso. O som consegue meio que transportar a gente de volta pros lugares que a gente associa a ele. Se você já foi pra praia, com certeza tem essa sensação quando ouve um bom take do barulho das ondas quebrando na areia. [som de ondas] Mayra: O som pra mim tem um característica curiosa, na maior parte do tempo, ele passa… despercebido. Ou pelo menos a gente acha isso, né? Porque o silêncio de verdade pode ser bem desconfortável. Quem aí nunca colocou um barulhinho de fundo pra estudar ou trabalhar? Mayra: Mas quando a gente bota reparo, ele tem um força muito grande. De nos engajar, de nos emocionar. [música de violino] Mayra: Também tem a capacidade de incomodar bastante… [sons de construção] Mayra: Eu sou a Mayra Trinca e você provavelmente já me conhece aqui do Oxigênio. Mayra: No episódio de hoje, a gente vai falar sobre som. Mais especificamente, sobre projetos de pesquisa e comunicação que usam o som pra entender e pra falar sobre mudanças climáticas e seus impactos no meio ambiente. [música de fundo] Natália: E as paisagens sonoras não são apenas um conjunto de sons bonitos. Elas são a própria expressão da vida de um lugar. Então, quando a gente preserva uma paisagem sonora, estamos preservando a diversidade das espécies que vocalizam naquele lugar, os modos de vida e as relações que estão interagindo. E muitas vezes essas relações dependem desses sons, que só existem porque esses sons existem. Então, a bioacústica acaba mostrando como os sons, os sapos também os mostram, como que esses cantos carregam histórias, ritmos, horários, temperaturas, interações que não aparecem ali somente olhando o ambiente. [Vinheta] João Bovolon: Seria triste se músicos só tocassem para músicos. Pintores só expusessem para pintores. E a filosofia só se destinasse a filósofos. Por sorte, a capacidade de ser afetado por um som, uma imagem, uma ideia, não é exclusividade de especialistas. MAYRA: Essa frase é de Silvio Ferraz, autor do Livro das Sonoridades. O trecho abre o texto do artigo “A bioacústica dos sapos e os estudos multiespécies: experimentos comunicacionais em mesas de trabalho” da Natália. Natália: Olá, meu nome é Natália Aranha. Eu sou bióloga e mestra pelo Labjor, em Divulgação Científica e Cultural. Durante o meu mestrado, eu trabalhei com os anfíbios, realizando movimentos com mesas de trabalhos e com o público de diferentes faixas etárias. Atualmente, eu sou doutoranda no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia pelo Instituto de Biologia da Unicamp. MAYRA: A Natália fez o mestrado aqui no Labjor na mesma época que eu. Enquanto eu estudava podcasts, ela tava pesquisando sobre divulgação científica de um grupo de animais muitas vezes menosprezado. [coaxares] Susana: Os sapos, por exemplo, não participam da vida da maioria de nós. Eles estão desaparecidos dos ecossistemas. Eles estão em poucos lugares que restaram para eles. Os brejos são ecossistemas muito frágeis. São os lugares onde eles vivem. Poucos de nós se dedicam a pensar, a se relacionar, a apreciar, a cuidar dessa relação com os sapos. Mayra: Essa que você ouviu agora foi a Susana, orientadora do trabalho da Natália. Susana: Meu nome é Susana Dias, eu sou pesquisadora do Laboratório de Estudos Avançados em Jornalismo, o Labjor, professora da pós-graduação em Divulgação Científica e Cultural, do Labjor/IEL/Unicamp. E trabalho com comunicação, artes, ciências, desenvolvendo várias metodologias de experimentação coletiva com as pessoas. Mayra: Mas, o interesse da Natália pelos sapos não começou no mestrado. Ela já era apaixonada pela herpetologia antes disso. [som de ícone] Mayra: Herpetologia é a área da biologia que estuda répteis e anfíbios. E eu posso dizer que entendo a Natália. Pra quem não sabe, eu também sou bióloga. E durante a faculdade cheguei a fazer um estágio na mesma área, porque também era um tema que me interessava muito. Mayra: Só que eu trabalhei mais com répteis, que são as cobras e os lagartos. E eu acabei desistindo da área em pouco tempo, apesar de ainda achar esses bichinhos muito legais. Já a Natália descobriu o amor pelos sapos num congresso de herpetologia que foi durante a graduação e, diferente de mim, ela segue trabalhando com eles até hoje. Natália: E eu me apaixonei. Eu digo que me apaixonei a partir da abertura do congresso, porque foi uma experiência muito legal que fizeram a partir dos sons, a partir de fotos e vídeos de vários pesquisadores realizando trabalhos de campo com esses animais. E, a partir desse momento, eu falei que era isso que eu queria fazer na minha vida. Mayra: Ah, e é importante dizer, que antes mesmo disso tudo, a Natália já tinha um interesse artístico por esses animais. Natália: E, como eu amo desenvolver pinturas realistas, esses animais são maravilhosos, quando você pensa nas cores, nos detalhes, nas texturas que eles trazem. Mayra: Porque foi dessa experiência que surgiu a ideia de trabalhar com divulgação científica, que acabou levando a Natália até a Susana. Mas como ela também tinha interesse de pesquisa com esses animais, ela acabou participando dos dois grupos ao longo do mestrado: o de divulgação e o de herpetologia, com o pessoal da biologia. Susana: Foi muito legal justamente pela possibilidade da Natália habitar esse laboratório durante um tempo, acompanhar o trabalho desses herpetólogos e a gente poder conversar junto com o grupo de pesquisa, que é o Multitão, aqui do Labjor da Unicamp, que é o nosso grupo, sobre possibilidades de conexão com as artes, e também com a antropologia, com a filosofia. A gente começou a tecer esses emaranhados lentamente, devagarzinho. Mayra: Quando a Natália chegou no mestrado, ela tinha uma visão muito comum da divulgação científica, que é a ideia de que os divulgadores ou os cientistas vão ensinar coisas que as pessoas não sabem. Mayra: É uma visão muito parecida com a que a gente ainda tem de escola mesmo, de que tem um grupo de pessoas que sabem mais e que vão passar esse conhecimento pra quem sabe menos. Natália: E daí a Susana nos mostrou que não era somente fazer uma divulgação sobre esses animais, mas mostrar a importância das atividades que acabam gerando afeto. Tentar desenvolver, fazer com que as pessoas criem movimentos afetivos com esses seres. Mayra: Se você tá no grupo de pessoas que tem uma certa aversão a esses animais, pode achar isso bem esquisito. Mas criar essas relações com espécies diferentes da nossa não significa necessariamente achar todas lindas e fofinhas. É aprender a reconhecer a importância que todas elas têm nesse emaranhado de relações que forma a vida na Terra. Mayra: Pra isso, a Natália e a Susana se apoiaram em uma série de conceitos. Um deles, que tem sido bem importante nas pesquisas do grupo da Susana, é o de espécies companheiras, da filósofa Donna Haraway. Natália: Descreve esses seres com os quais vivemos, com os quais aprendemos e com os quais transformam como seres em que a gente não habita ou fala sobre, mas a gente habita e escreve com eles. Eles nos mostram que todos nós fazemos parte de uma rede de interações e que nenhum ser nesse mundo faz algo ou vive só. Então, os sapos, para mim, são essas espécies companheiras. Mas não porque eles falam na nossa língua, mas porque nós escutamos seus cantos e somos levados a repensar a nossa própria forma de estar no mundo. Mayra: Uma coisa interessante que elas me explicaram sobre esse conceito, é que ele é muito mais amplo do que parece. Então, por exemplo, bactérias e vírus, com quem a gente divide nosso corpo e nosso mundo sem nem perceber são espécies companheiras. Ou, as plantas e os animais, que a gente usa pra se alimentar, também são espécies companheiras Susana: E uma das características do modo de viver dos últimos anos, dos últimos 50 anos dos humanos, são modos de vida pouco ricos de relações, com poucas relações com os outros seres mais que humanos. E a gente precisa ampliar isso. Trazer os sapos é muito rico porque justamente abre uma perspectiva para seres que estão esquecidos, que pertencem a um conjunto de relações de muito poucas pessoas. Mayra: Parte do problema tem a ver com o fato de que as espécies estão sumindo mesmo. As mudanças climáticas, o desmatamento e a urbanização vão afastando as espécies nativas das cidades, por exemplo, que passam a ser povoadas por muitos indivíduos de algumas poucas espécies. Pensa como as cidades estão cheias de cães e gatos, mas também de pombas, pardais, baratas. Ou em áreas de agropecuária, dominadas pelo gado, a soja e o capim onde antes tinha uma floresta super diversa. Susana: Eu acho que um aspecto fundamental para a gente entender esse processo das mudanças climáticas é olhar para as homogeneizações. Então, como o planeta está ficando mais homogêneo em termos de sons, de imagens, de cores, de modos de vida, de texturas. Uma das coisas que a gente está perdendo é a multiplicidade. A gente está perdendo a diversidade. Mayra: Pensa bem, quando foi a última vez que você interagiu com um sapo? (Herpetólogos de plantão, vocês não valem). Provavelmente, suas memórias com esses animais envolvem pouco contato direto e você deve lembrar mais deles justamente pelo… som que eles fazem. [coaxares, música] Lucas: Eu comecei a pensar na acústica como uma ferramenta de entender a saúde do ambiente, e queria aplicar isso para recifes de coral, enfim, a costa brasileira é super rica. Mayra: Calma, a gente já volta pra eu te explicar como a Natália e a Susana relacionaram ciências e artes na divulgação sobre os sapos. Antes, eu quero te contar um pouco sobre outro projeto que tem tudo a ver com o tema. Deixa o Lucas se apresentar. Lucas: Pronto, eu me chamo Lucas, eu sou biólogo de formação, mas tive uma vertente acadêmica na minha profissão, em que eu me dediquei sempre a questões relacionadas à ecologia, então fiz um mestrado, doutorado na área de ecologia. Mayra: Sim, o Lucas, assim como eu, a Natália e mesmo a Susana, também fez biologia. Lucas: Os biólogos sempre se encontram em algum lugar. Mayra: A gente ainda vai dominar o mundo…[risadas] Mayra: Tá, mas voltando aqui. O Lucas esteve nos últimos anos trabalhando no Nordeste. Eu conversei com ele durante um estágio de professor visitante aqui na Unicamp. Lucas: Então estou passando um estágio de volta aqui às minhas raízes, que eu sou daqui do interior de São Paulo, então vim passar frio um pouquinho de volta aqui em Campinas. Mayra: Essa entrevista rolou já tem um tempinho, em agosto de 2025. E realmente tava fazendo um friozinho naquela semana. Mayra: Eu fui conversar com o Lucas sobre um projeto que ele faz parte junto com o Observatório do Semiárido, da Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido, no Rio Grande do Norte. Mayra: A ideia dessa pesquisa é criar um banco de dados sonoros e construir um algoritmo. Lucas: testar algoritmos, né, conseguir ter uma ferramenta na mão que possa ajudar a gente a detectar níveis de degradação no Semiárido com base em informação acústica. Mayra: Esse projeto é o Escutadô. Lucas: O projeto Escutadô, ele nasceu… assim, tem a história longa e a história curta. Mayra: Óbvio que eu escolhi a longa. E ela começa escuta só, com os anfíbios. Mayra: Coincidência? Lucas: Não, não tem coincidência nenhuma. Lucas: Mas eu comecei sim estudando o comportamento de anfíbios, e uma característica muito peculiar dos anfíbios é a vocalização, né? Então, os anfíbios me levaram para a acústica, e aí a acústica entrou na minha vida também para tornar as abordagens da minha carreira, de como eu vou entender os fenômenos através desse ponto de vista sonoro, né? Mayra: Isso é uma coisa muito comum na biologia. Tem muitos animais que são complicados de enxergar, porque são noturnos, muito pequenos ou vivem em lugares de difícil acesso. Então uma estratégia muito usada é registrar os sons desses animais. Vale pra anfíbios, pra pássaros, pra baleias e por aí vai. [sons de fundo de mar] Mayra: Inclusive, lembra, a ideia original do projeto do Lucas era usar a bioacústica, essa área da biologia que estuda os sons, pra investigar recifes de corais. Ele tava contando que elaborou essa primeira proposta de pesquisa pra um edital. Lucas: Aí a gente não venceu essa chamada, mas a gente reuniu uma galera com colaboração, escrevemos um projeto super lindo, e aí por alguma razão lá não foi contemplado o financiamento. Mayra: Isso também é algo muito comum na biologia. E em várias outras áreas de pesquisa. Mas, vida que segue, novas oportunidades apareceram. Lucas: O projeto Escutadô começou no mar, mas a gente conseguiu ter sucesso com a ideia mesmo, a hora que eu cheguei em Mossoró, como professor visitante na Universidade Federal Rural do Semiárido, abriu um edital da FINEP, voltado para a cadeias produtivas, bioeconomia, e a gente identificou que a gente poderia utilizar essa ideia, né, e aplicar essa ideia, mas aí eu já propus que a gente fosse atuar no ecossistema terrestre. Mayra: FINEP é a Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos do Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação. O Lucas quis alterar a proposta inicial, primeiro, porque fazia mais sentido dentro do contexto que ele tava trabalhando. E, depois, porque a região tem uma forte dependência do ecossistema da caatinga pro sustento da população e pra preservação do seu modo de vida, a tal bioeconomia que ele citou. Mayra: Além disso, Lucas: a caatinga é o bioma que certamente tá sentindo mais os extremos, né, das mudanças climáticas, então isso trouxe uma contextualização muito interessante para o projeto, especialmente porque casava com a questão da bioeconomia, né, então a gente tentou embarcar nessa linha e transformamos essa tecnologia para pensar como ela poderia detectar níveis de degradação para a região do Semiárido, né, e aí deu certo. Mayra: Funciona mais ou menos assim, a equipe de pesquisa instalou uma série de gravadores espalhados, mais de 60 pontos no estado do Rio Grande do Norte e alguns pontos na Paraíba e no Ceará. Lucas: Então, quando a gente instala o gravador no ambiente, ele grava três minutos, dorme sete, grava três minutos, dorme sete e fica assim rodando, a gente tem duas rodadas de amostragem, uma que é feita durante a estação seca e outra que é feita durante a estação chuvosa, então o gravador fica em cada ponto por 20 dias e nesses 20 dias ele fica continuamente gravando três minutos e dormindo sete. Mayra: Essas gravações viram uma grande biblioteca sonora. O próximo passo é reconhecer quais sons representam áreas mais conservadas… [captação de área preservada] Mayra: E quais gravações foram feitas em áreas mais degradadas, principalmente com mais alterações antrópicas no ambiente. [captação de área antropizada] Mayra: Pra gente, até que é fácil reconhecer a diferença entre os sons. Agora, como a gente transforma isso, por exemplo, num aplicativo, capaz de identificar o nível de degradação do ambiente usando só o som daquele lugar? Lucas: Pois é, agora você tocou no ponto que eu acho que é o maior desafio do projeto e também o que torna o projeto, assim, inovador. A gente já tem hoje mais ou menos 16 mil horas de gravação, então a gente não tem como não usar uma ferramenta de aprendizado de máquina para ajudar no processamento desses dados. Mayra: A essa altura, você já deve saber o básico de como funcionam as inteligências artificiais. Elas comparam bases de dados gigantescas pra achar padrões. Mas, isso funciona bem pra texto ou pra imagens. Lucas: E a gente introduziu um conceito de aprendizado de escuta de máquina, ou seja, a gente não vai trabalhar sobre o ponto de vista da imagem, vai trabalhar sobre o ponto de vista da escuta, opa, pera aí, mas como é que a gente faz isso? Mayra: O Lucas explicou que o que eles tiveram que fazer foi, de certa forma, realmente transformar esses sons em imagens. Pra isso, eles usam os espectrogramas, que são aquelas representações visuais do som, eu vou deixar um exemplo lá no site e no nosso Instagram, depois você pode procurar pra ver. Mayra: Essa etapa do projeto, o treinamento da IA, tá sendo feita em parceria com o BIOS, o Centro de Pesquisa em Inteligência Artificial aqui da Unicamp. A gente já falou um pouco desse projeto no episódio 201 – Um bate-papo sobre café. Se você ainda não ouviu, tem mais essa lição de casa pra quando acabar esse episódio, vale a pena, porque tá bem legal. [divulgação podcast SabIA!] [música] Mayra: Os sons captados pelo Escutadô, projeto que o Lucas faz parte, ou as gravações dos anfíbios que a gente tava falando com a Natália, nunca são sons isolados. Mayra: Esse conjunto de sons de um ambiente forma o que a gente chama de paisagem sonora. Lucas: Esses sons podem ter origens geofísicas, então o som do vento, o som da chuva, o som dos fluxos de corrente, riachos, cachoeiras, você tem os sons da própria biodiversidade, né, que é baseado nos sistemas de comunicação acústica da fauna, por exemplo, quando as aves produzem as vocalizações, os anfíbios, os insetos, os mamíferos, você tem todo ali um contexto de produção de sinais acústicos que representam assinaturas da presença da biodiversidade no ambiente. E você ainda tem a assinatura da presença das tecnofonias ou antropofonias, né, que são os sons que são produzidos pelos seres humanos, né, seja os sons das rodovias, das construções, das obras, das edificações, ou seja, que tem toda uma contextualização. Mayra: A ideia de usar o som, ou a paisagem sonora, pra entender a saúde de um ambiente, não é nada nova. Um dos livros mais importantes, praticamente fundador do movimento ambientalista nos Estados Unidos, é o Primavera Silenciosa, da Rachel Carson, e ele foi publicado em 1962. Lucas: Então ela já estava alertando para a sociedade acadêmica, especialmente, que o uso de pesticidas, né, as mudanças que o ser humano está promovendo na paisagem estão causando extinções sonoras, né, porque está alterando a composição das espécies na natureza, então a gente está embarcando um pouco nessa ideia que influenciou o que hoje a gente chama de soundscape ecology, que é a ecologia da paisagem sonora, ou ecologia da paisagem acústica. Natália: As pessoas automaticamente imaginam que o silêncio seja algo bom. Mas, esse silêncio é um sinal de alerta, porque ele mostra que as espécies estão desaparecendo e como os seus ciclos e modos de interação estão mudando. E que o habitat, o lugar, já não está dando mais condições impostas pelo clima. Eu acredito que os sons funcionam como uma espécie de termômetro da vida. Quando eles diminuem, é porque a diversidade está ali diminuindo. Mayra: A gente vai ver que a Natália usou noções de paisagem sonora pra criar atividades imersivas de divulgação, onde as pessoas puderam experimentar com diferentes sons e ver como era possível criar novas relações com os sapos a partir deles. Mayra: No caso do Lucas, a paisagem sonora funciona bem como a Natália descreveu, é um termômetro que mede a qualidade de um ambiente da Caatinga. Talvez você imagine esse bioma como um lugar silencioso, um tanto desértico, mas isso tem mais a ver com a imagem comumente divulgada de que é uma região de escassez. Lucas: Do ponto de vista das pessoas interpretarem ela como um ambiente pobre, enquanto ela é muito rica, em termos de biodiversidade, em termos de recursos naturais, em termos de recursos culturais, ou seja, a cultura das populações que vivem lá é extremamente rica. Mayra: Pra complicar ainda mais a situação, a Caatinga está na área mais seca do nosso país. Lucas: Ou seja, a questão da escassez hídrica é extremamente importante. E torna ela, do ponto de vista das mudanças climáticas, ainda mais importante. Mayra: A importância de se falar de grupos menosprezados também aparece na pesquisa da Natália com os sapos. Vamos concordar que eles não tão exatamente dentro do que a gente chama de fofofauna, dos animais queridinhos pela maioria das pessoas, mas não por isso projetos de conservação são menos importantes. Pelo contrário. Mayra: Pra dar uma ideia, na semana que eu escrevia esse roteiro, estava circulando nas redes sociais um estudo que mostrou que, em cinquenta anos, as mudanças climáticas podem ser responsáveis pelo desaparecimento completo dos anfíbios na Mata Atlântica. Mayra: Daí a importância de envolver cada vez mais pessoas em ações de preservação e enfrentamento às mudanças climáticas. Susana: Que a gente pudesse trazer uma paisagem sonora da qual os humanos fazem parte e fazem parte não apenas produzindo problemas, produzindo destruição, mas produzindo interações, interações ecológicas. [música] Mayra: Voltamos então à pesquisa da Natália. Mayra: Ela usou uma metodologia de trabalho que tem sido muito utilizada pela Susana e seu grupo de pesquisa, que são as mesas de trabalho. Susana: E elas foram surgindo como uma maneira de fazer com que a revista ClimaCom, que é uma revista que está tentando ensaiar modos de pensar, de criar, de existir diante das catástrofes, a revista pudesse ter uma existência que não fosse só online, que fosse também nas ruas, nas praças, nas salas de aula, nos outros espaços, que ela tivesse uma existência fora das telas. E que, com isso, a gente se desafiasse não apenas a levar para fora das telas e para as outras pessoas algo que foi produzido na universidade, mas que a gente pudesse aprender com as outras pessoas. Mayra: A ideia das mesas é reunir pessoas diversas, de dentro e de fora da universidade, pra criarem juntas a partir de um tema. Susana: Então, quando chegou a proposta dos anfíbios, a gente resolveu criar uma mesa de trabalho com os sapos. E essa mesa de trabalho envolvia diversas atividades que aconteciam simultaneamente. Essas atividades envolviam desde fotografia, pintura, desenho, colagem, grafismo indígena, até estudo dos sons. Mayra: A Susana estava explicando que durante essas mesas, elas conseguem fazer com que as pessoas interajam com os sapos de uma forma diferente, mais criativa. Criativa aqui tanto no sentido de imaginar, quanto de criar e experimentar mesmo. Susana: A gente propôs a criação de um caderno de estudo dos sons junto com as pessoas. A gente disponibilizou vários materiais diferentes para que as pessoas pudessem experimentar as sonoridades. Disponibilizamos um conjunto de cantos da fonoteca aqui da Unicamp, de cantos dos sapos, para as pessoas escutarem. E pedimos que elas experimentassem com aqueles objetos, aqueles materiais, recriar esses sons dos sapos. E que elas pudessem depois transpor para um caderno essa experiência de estudo desses sons, de como esses sons se expressavam. Mayra: Esse é um exemplo de como a gente pode aproximar as pessoas do trabalho dos cientistas sem que isso coloque a pesquisa feita nas universidades como algo superior ou mais importante do que outros conhecimentos. Escuta só a experiência da Natália: Natália: Através de diferentes materiais, de diferentes meios, é possível criar um movimento afetivo que vai além daquele movimento do emissor-receptor que traz uma ideia mais generalista, mais direta, de que você só fala e não escuta. Então, uma das coisas que mais marcou o meu trabalho nessa trajetória foi a escuta. Onde a gente não apenas falava com os anfíbios, mas também a gente escutava as histórias que as pessoas traziam, os ensinamentos de outros povos, de outras culturas. Então, essa relação entre arte e ciências possibilitou todo esse movimento que foi muito enriquecedor (6:14) Susana: As mesas de trabalho foram um lugar também onde as pessoas acessaram um pouco do trabalho dos herpetólogos. Entraram em relação com a maneira como os herpetólogos estudam os sapos. Interessa para eles se o som do sapo é mais amadeirado, é mais vítreo, é mais metálico. O tipo de som, se ele tem uma pulsação diferente da outra, um ritmo diferente do outro. Eles fazem várias análises desses sons, estudam esses sons em muitos detalhes. Mayra: Trazer essa possibilidade de experimentação é um dos principais objetivos das ações e das pesquisas realizadas pelo grupo da Susana aqui no Labjor. E o encontro com as práticas artísticas tem sido um meio de trabalhar essas experimentações. [música de fundo] Susana: Eu acho que a gente tem pensado muito ciências e artes no plural, com minúsculas, justamente para trazer uma potência de multiplicidade, de possibilidades não só de pesquisa e produção artística, mas de pensamento, modos diferentes de viver no mundo e de praticar a possibilidade de pensar, de criar, de se relacionar com os outros seres. Mayra: Mas, segundo a Susana, tem um desafio grande nesse tipo de trabalho… Susana: Porque é muito comum as pessoas, sobretudo os cientistas, acharem que as artes são uma embalagem bonita para as ciências. Então, o que as artes vão fazer vai ser criar uma maneira das pessoas se seduzirem por um conteúdo científico, de se tornar mais belo, mais bonito. A gente não pensa que esse encontro entre artes e ciências pode tornar as ciências mais perturbadoras, pode questionar o que é ciência, pode gerar coisas que não são nem arte nem ciência, que a gente ainda não conhece, que são inesperadas, que são produções novas. Mayra: Quando a Natália fala da possibilidade de criar relações afetivas com os sapos, ela não quer dizer apenas relações carinhosas, mas também de sensibilidade, de se deixar afetar, no sentido de se permitir viver aquela experiência. De entrar em contato com essas espécies companheiras e, realmente, sair desses encontros diferente do que a gente entrou. Susana: Então, a gente está tentando pensar atividades de divulgação científica e cultural que são modos de criar alianças com esses seres. São modos de prestar atenção nesses seres, de levar a sério suas possibilidades de existir, suas maneiras de comunicar, suas maneiras de produzir conhecimento. É uma ideia de que esses seres também produzem modos de ser e pensar. Também produzem ontopistemologias que a gente precisa aprender a se tornar digno de entrar em relação. Mayra: Em tempos de crise climática, isso se torna especialmente importante. Quando a gente fala de comunicação de risco, sempre existe a preocupação de falar com as pessoas de uma forma que a informação não seja paralisante, mas que crie mobilizações. Mayra: Eu aposto que você, assim como eu, de vez em quando se sente bem impotente quando pensa na catástrofe ambiental em curso. A gente se sente pequeno diante do problema. Só que é necessário fazer alguma coisa diferente do que a gente tem feito ou veremos cada vez mais eventos naturais extremos que têm destruído tantas formas de vida. [encerra música] Susana: Acho que a gente tem pensado nesses encontros justamente como aquilo que pode tirar a gente da zona do conforto e pode gerar uma divulgação científica e cultural nesses encontros entre artes e ciências, que experimentem algo que não seja massificado, algo que escape às abordagens mais capitalizadas da comunicação e mais massificadas, e que possam gerar outras sensibilidades nas pessoas, possam engajá-las na criação de alguma coisa que a gente ainda não sabe o que é, que está por vir. Mayra: A única forma de fazer isso é efetivamente trazendo as pessoas para participar dos projetos, aliando conhecimentos locais e tradicionais com as pesquisas acadêmicas. Isso cria um senso de pertencimento que fortalece os resultados dessas pesquisas. Mayra: O projeto Escutadô, que o Lucas faz parte, também trabalha com essa perspectiva de engajamento. Lucas: A gente usa uma abordagem chamada ciência cidadã, onde a gente se conecta com o público, e os locais onde a gente vai fazer as amostragens são propriedades rurais de colaboradores ou de voluntários do projeto. Então, a gente tem toda essa troca de experiências, de informação com esse público que vive o dia a dia ali no semiárido, ali na Caatinga. Tudo isso enriquece muito a nossa visão sobre o projeto, inclusive as decisões que a gente pode ter em relação a como que essa tecnologia vai ser empregada ou como que ela deveria ser empregada. Mayra: Lembra que o projeto foi financiado a partir de um edital que considerava a bioeconomia? Então, pro Lucas, a pesquisa só se torna inovadora e significativa de verdade se tiver efeitos práticos pra população que ajudou a construir esse conhecimento. Lucas: Senão é só uma ideia bacana, né? Ela precisa se transformar em inovação. Então, a gente tem toda essa preocupação de criar essa ferramenta e de que essa ferramenta seja realmente interessante para mudar a forma com que a gente vai entender ou tomar as decisões de forma mais eficiente, né? E que isso se torne um recurso que seja possível, né? Para que as pessoas utilizem. Mayra: A ideia do projeto é que, a partir de um aplicativo com aquele algoritmo treinado, as pessoas consigam por exemplo avaliar as condições ambientais da região em que vivem. Ou que esses dados possam ser usados pra ajudar a identificar áreas prioritárias de conservação e com isso, contribua diretamente pra qualidade do cuidado com a Caatinga. [música] Mayra: As mudanças climáticas estão aí faz tempo, infelizmente. Mas seus efeitos têm se tornado mais perceptíveis a cada ano. É urgente pensarmos em outras formas de estarmos no mundo, diminuindo os impactos ambientais, antes que esse planeta se torne inabitável, porque, como a gente também tem falado aqui no Oxigênio, não é tão simples assim achar outro planeta pra morar. Susana: Então, acho que isso tem sido fundamental para a gente criar uma comunicação científica em tempos de mudanças climáticas, que não apenas fica na denúncia dos problemas, mas que apresenta possibilidades de invenção de outros modos de habitar essa terra ferida, essa terra em ruínas.

Building HVAC Science - Building Performance, Science, Health & Comfort
Pithy quotes "We do our job well if the homeowner forgets about us, because the system just works." "The bar is so low in some homes that doing a quality install can genuinely change someone's life." "The best way to learn is crawling in the crawl space behind a great technician and handing them tools." Semi-famous quote that fits our theme "Stay hungry, stay foolish." © Steve Jobs Shreyas Sudhakar joined the Building HVAC Science podcast to talk about his path from rocket propulsion engineering to building high-quality heat pump installs in California. Bill and Eric found him through his thoughtful LinkedIn posts, and Shreyas shared that a friend's relentless heat-pump evangelism finally pushed him to look deeper. Once he did, the tech clicked. He realized HVAC and rockets share the same core idea: moving energy through systems, and the math is not as far apart as it sounds. What really pulled him in was the homeowner experience. After talking with homeowners on Nextdoor and Reddit, and even calling contractors for quotes himself, he kept hearing the same frustrations: heat pumps feel expensive, contractor advice is inconsistent, trust is low, and myths like "heat pumps don't work in the cold" still show up, even in mild California climates. Shreyas' view is simple: most homeowners do not care what the equipment is called. They care about comfort, noise, bills, and safety, and the best outcome is when the system is so reliable they barely think about it. Shreyas now runs Vayu, a lean heat pump installation company operating with vetted subcontractor partners, while his Heat Pumped newsletter and podcast focus on education for homeowners, technicians, and policy folks. Vayu handles the end-to-end process, from load sizing and equipment selection to permits and rebates, while partner shops focus on the craft of installation. His definition of success is not just a happy install day, but a customer still loving the system a decade later, and technicians thriving because the model removes desk work and supports quality work at scale.

On February 7, 1926, National Negro History Week was first observed. This week, we frame Blackest History Month as a Governance ritual against the coming 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America, not as celebration but as struggle—over memory, power, and education. Coming from this weekend's “Blackprint 20” Conference in Philadelphia, we trace recurring conflicts from 1776 to 1976 to the present: Social Structure spectacle versus Movement and Memory; the archive versus living intergenerational transmission; and curriculum as Governance protocol beyond simple skill development. White supremacy cannot coexist with African self-determination, equity or any other form of full beingness. Rituals that mark anniversaries must activate memory into action, revealing intellectual warfare over history, schooling, and national identity in a convulsing settler state.Are you a member of Knarrative?
