Podcasts about skeletal

Skeletal muscle is one of the most abundant tissues in the human body, representing approximately 40% of body weight. Under certain circumstances, skeletal muscle can be regenerated through satellite cells, a reservoir of quiescent muscle stem cells, that can be activated with injury or in certain diseases and give rise to newly formed multi-nucleated myotubes and myofibers. However, the regenerative potential of muscle is diminished or is completely absent in the course of normal aging, certain diseases, and space travel. For example, time spent in microgravity can have a profound impact on human physiology, especially the muscular system, as astronauts lose up to 20% of their lean muscle mass and up to half of their strength.  The identification of countermeasures against the effects of muscle regeneration, including microgravity, is an increasing priority for an aging population and continued space travel. Experiments in microgravity, conducted on the International Space Station, offer a unique opportunity to understand muscle regeneration and the effects of microgravity. Our guests today will discuss muscle regeneration, their muscle-on-a-chip platform that mimics salient aspects of impaired muscle regeneration, and the feasibility of drug screening in microgravity.GuestsNgan Huang, PhD, Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Stanford University, USASoochi Kim, PhD, Department of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, Korea University, KoreaHostJanet Rossant, Editor-in-Chief, Stem Cell Reports and The Gairdner FoundationSupporting ContentPaper link:  Skeletal muscle-on-a-chip in microgravity as a platform for regeneration modeling and drug screeningAbout Stem Cell ReportsStem Cell Reports is the open access, peer-reviewed journal of the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) for communicating basic discoveries in stem cell research, in addition to translational and clinical studies.

Phenotypic variation within the skeleton has biological, behavioral, and biomedical functional implications for individuals and species. Thus, it is critical to understand how genomic, environmental, and mediating regulatory factors combine and interact to drive skeletal trait development and evolution. One way to do this is by studying skeletal diseases that disrupt skeletal function — like osteoarthritis (OA) which is a chronic disorder characterized by the degradation of cartilage and underlying bone in joints and can lead to severe pain and mobility limitations. This talk will discuss what is known about OA in humans and other primates, as well as recent advances that are further informing these topics.

Story at-a-glance Skeletal muscles have their own circadian clocks that regulate daily cycles of growth, repair, energy production, and protein turnover A recent study found that disabling these peripheral clocks in the muscles caused premature aging, reduced strength, slower movement, and other signs consistent with sarcopenia These findings help explain why shift workers often experience early muscle decline, as disrupted rhythms interfere with the body's natural overnight repair processes Light is the most powerful timing cue for your internal clocks, with morning sunlight helping anchor circadian rhythms and exposure to blue light at night disrupting melatonin and recovery Meal timing and consistent sleep schedules also help reinforce muscle clock function and support long-term strength and resilience

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-15-2025: Dr. Dawn provides a comprehensive overview of bone health, describing bones as the "silent architects" of our bodies that require ongoing care and attention throughout life. She outlines key risk factors including family history of fractures, eating disorders, hormonal changes, digestive surgeries, and medication use, while explaining how DEXA scans measure bone density through T-scores and Z-scores, recommending the FRAX risk calculator as a superior predictive tool. She shares practical strategies like weight-bearing exercise and proper vitamin supplementation (D, K2, calcium) alongside explaining the roles of osteoclasts and osteoblasts in bone turnover and how medications influence this balance. She addresses a caller's question about strontium citrate and isoflavone supplements for bone health after cancer treatment, clarifying that these differ from problematic boron and suggesting C-telopeptide or N-telopeptide testing to verify bone turnover rates beyond DEXA results. The program discusses a promising non-hormonal male contraceptive called ADAM, a dissolvable hydrogel implant shown in preliminary trials to block sperm for up to two years without serious side effects. Dr. Dawn addresses misconceptions about autism, describing it as a spectrum with diverse manifestations, explaining its neurological basis in atypical brain pruning patterns, and emphasizing it as a complex genetic vulnerability to environmental events. She evaluates a listener email about a supplement for urinary incontinence and metabolic health, warning listeners about marketing tactics and insufficient evidence behind many commercial products. Dr. Dawn examines "Fatty 15," a pentadecanoic acid supplement marketed for metabolic health, noting that while some rodent studies show promise for insulin sensitivity and liver health, human evidence remains limited compared to well-established benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. Dr. Dawn shares news about Orforglipron, a new oral GLP-1 medication in pill form for diabetes and weight management that appears as effective as injectable versions like Ozempic.. The show concludes with information about innovative plant-based transparent paperboard, a cellulose-based material that biodegrades within 300 days while offering a safer and more sustainable alternative to conventional plastics.

En este episodio, profundizamos en uno de los fenómenos más devastadores pero menos comprendidos en neurorrehabilitación: la denervación muscular tras una lesión medular. A través de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura científica y de la experiencia clínica, abordamos qué ocurre realmente con los músculos que han perdido su inervación, cómo se transforman con el tiempo y qué posibilidades tenemos para intervenir. Hablamos sobre neurofisiología, degeneración axonal, fases de la denervación, y cómo la estimulación eléctrica —especialmente con pulsos largos— puede modificar el curso degenerativo incluso años después de la lesión. Exploramos también el Proyecto RISE, los protocolos clínicos actuales y las implicaciones terapéuticas reales de aplicar electroestimulación en músculos completamente denervados. Si trabajas en neurorrehabilitación o te interesa la ciencia aplicada a la recuperación funcional, este episodio es para ti. Referencias del episodio: 1. Alberty, M., Mayr, W., & Bersch, I. (2023).

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX A world-first human trial of a drug designed to treat the underlying cause of type 1 diabetes has begun in Australia. University of Queensland researcher Ranjeny Thomas said the experimental drug — dubbed ASITI-201 — was designed to retrain the immune system so it no longer attacks the insulin-producing pancreatic cells, known as beta cells. The drug, given as an injection under the skin, combines fragments of a protein found in the beta cells of people with type 1 diabetes and vitamin D to calm the immune response. She said if effective, the drug would initially be given to patients with type 1 diabetes as soon as possible after diagnosis to preserve remaining pancreatic cells and reduce the amount of insulin needed. But eventually, if screening programs can be developed to pick up people at risk of developing type 1 diabetes, it may be possible to "prevent the progression of the disease altogether". The first in-human trial of 36 participants will test the safety of the drug, but blood tests will also determine the impact of the therapy on a patient's immune system and glucose tolerance. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-29/type-1-diabetes-drug-trial-auto-immune-disease-science/105223022 XX   Diabetes deaths in the U.S. have fallen to some of the lowest rates in years, according to new preliminary figures published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, reversing a surge in mortality that was seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.   There were 26.4 deaths per 100,000 people from diabetes, according to early death certificate data for the third quarter of 2024 published this month by the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics.   Death rates from diabetes peaked in 2021, according to CDC figures, at 31.1 deaths per 100,000 people for that year. Diabetes was the eighth leading cause of death in 2021. The CDC says the link between COVID-19 and diabetes may be to blame for that increase.   "Data show an increase in mortality rates for all people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and research shows that people with underlying conditions, including diabetes, are more likely to become very sick from COVID-19 and have a higher risk of hospitalization and death," Christopher Holliday, head of the CDC's Division of Diabetes Translation, told CBS News in a statement.   Holliday added that research shows the pandemic may also have made it harder for Americans to properly manage the disease, ranging from interruptions to physical activity to disruptions to routine medical care diagnosing and treating the disease.   https://www.cbsnews.com/news/diabetes-deaths-lowest-levels-years-early-cdc-figures/ XX Big news for the Eversense CGM – they have their first pump partner. Sequel Med Tech says the twist pump will integrate with Senseonics Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor (CGM). This collaboration would make twiist the first AID system compatible with Eversense 365, the world's first and only one-year CGM. Sequel and Senseonics say they have already started their work to integrate the latest-generation, 365-day implantable sensor with twiist. They expect to make the integrated offering available in the third quarter of this year. This marks the second CGM integration for Sequel, which partnered with Abbott and its FreeStyle Libre platform earlier this year. This week we also got a peek at the packaging and delivery of the twist as the first people posted about wearing it. We'll follow up and learn more about this newest insulin pump in the us. Senseonics, meanwhile, brought the first year-long CGM to market last year, launching Eversense 365 with its global distribution partner, Ascensia Diabetes Care, in October 2024. The system also received clearance as an integrated CGM (iCGM) system, meaning it can work with compatible medical devices. Those include insulin pumps as part of automated insulin delivery systems. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/sequel-senseonics-integrate-cgm-insulin-pump/ XX Medtronic has announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the Simplera Sync sensor for use with the MiniMed 780G system. With this approval, the MiniMed 780G system now offers more flexibility for users of the company's most advanced insulin delivery system featuring Meal Detection technology with both the Guardian 4 sensor and Simplera Sync sensor.   The Simplera Sync is a disposable, all-in-one sensor that requires no fingersticks with SmartGuard or overtape and features a simple, two-step insertion process. It is the company's newest addition to its CGM portfolio, which expands options and provides greater flexibility for users.   The MiniMed 780G system's adaptive algorithm automatically anticipates, adjusts, and corrects glucose levels every 5 minutes, 24/7 – working around the clock so users can focus on what matters. It's the only system featuring Meal Detection technology, which detects rising sugar levels and delivers more insulin as needed to help users keep glucose levels in range more often – even when users occasionally forget to dose insulin for snacks or meals or underestimate their carbs.   The system uses a “treat to target” approach and flexible glucose targets as low as 100 mg/dL, which, combined with its adaptive algorithm allows it to more closely mirror the glucose levels of someone not living with diabetes.   Real-world data of the system shows global users consistently achieve time in range above international targets of 70% when using optimal settings (active insulin time of two hours and 100 mg/dL target glucose). It is also the only system that works with the world's only infusion set that lasts up to 7 days so that users only have to change their infusion set once per week and can experience 96% fewer injections compared to multiple daily injections.   “We're committed to driving innovation that makes life easier for those living with diabetes so they can forget about their diabetes as much as possible throughout the day,” said Que Dallara, EVP and president of Medtronic Diabetes. “Our MiniMed 780G system delivers advanced diabetes technology for so many around the world, and we're excited to continue evolving this experience with expanded CGM options —including our Simplera Sync sensor, which we look forward to bringing to people living with diabetes in the U.S.”   A limited launch of the Simplera Sync sensor will begin in the U.S. in the fall of 2025. Today, the MiniMed 780G system can be used with the Guardian 4 sensor.   Like this:https://med-techinsights.com/2025/04/29/simplera-sync-sensor-for-minimed-780g-now-fda-approved/ XX Front office changes at Insulet.. The former head of Johnson & Johnson's worldwide medtech business, Ashley McEvoy will take over as president and CEO from Jim Hollingshead, who has led Insulet since 2022. In its announcement of the leadership change, Insulet said that Hollingshead and the company mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately. McEvoy served as worldwide medtech chairman at J&J from 2018 until her departure in late 2023, the culmination of nearly 30 years at the company and several executive roles—including president of its Ethicon division and group chairman of vision and diabetes care. Since then, she has also served as a board member at Procter & Gamble. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/insulet-taps-former-jj-medtech-head-ashley-mcevoy-be-ceo XX New free mobile game launched this week to make type 1 diabetes onboarding faster easier and less overwhelming. It's called Level One.. created by Level Ex (Powered by Relevate Health), the studio behind award-winning medical games for medical professionals. Level Ex CEO Sam Glassenberg created the game after a – quote  - brutal onboarding experience when his daughter was diagnosed five years ago He says  It took a year to understand how to manage this disease. So we fixed it. We built a game that can train your brain to do it in a matter of hours." The game is launching in partnership with leading diabetes organizations Beyond Type 1 and Breakthrough T1D Play, who are integrating Level One into their outreach and educational campaigns to support newly diagnosed families worldwide.

As the most abundant protein in the human body, collagen provides essential structure and support to nearly all tissues and organs.   Now, researchers at Carnegie Mellon's Feinberg Lab have made a major breakthrough using their novel Freeform Reversible Embedding of Suspended Hydrogels (FRESH) 3D bioprinting technique. This method enables the precise printing of soft, living cells and tissues. Leveraging this technology, the team successfully created the first-ever microphysiologic system, also known as a tissue model, constructed entirely from collagen. This advancement opens new possibilities for studying disease and engineering tissue therapies, including potential treatments for conditions like Type 1 diabetes.   Traditionally, small-scale models of human tissue, referred to as microfluidics, organ-on-chip devices, or microphysiologic systems, have been fabricated using synthetic materials such as silicone rubber or plastics. These materials were necessary due to limitations in earlier manufacturing techniques. However, because they are not biologically native, they fail to fully replicate natural tissue environments, restricting their effectiveness in biomedical research and therapeutic development.   “Now, we can build microfluidic systems in the Petri dish entirely out of collagen, cells, and other proteins, with unprecedented structural resolution and fidelity,” explained Adam Feinberg, a professor of biomedical engineering and materials science & engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. “Most importantly, these models are fully biologic, which means cells function better.”   Building Complex Tissues with FRESH Bioprinting In new research published in Science Advances, the group demonstrates the use of this FRESH bioprinting advancement, building more complex vascularized tissues out of fully biologic materials, to create a pancreatic-like tissue that could potentially be used in the future to treat Type 1 diabetes. This advancement in FRESH bioprinting builds on the team's earlier work published in Science, by improving the resolution and quality to create fluidic channels that are like blood vessels down to about 100-micron diameter.   “There were several key technical developments to the FRESH printing technology that enabled this work,” described Daniel Shiwarski, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pittsburgh and prior postdoctoral fellow in the Feinberg lab. “By implementing a single-step bioprinting fabrication process, we manufactured collagen-based perfusable CHIPS in a wide range of designs that exceed the resolution and printed fidelity of any other known bioprinting approach to date. Further, when combined with multi-material 3D bioprinting of ECM proteins, growth factors, and cell-laden bioinks and integration into a custom bioreactor platform, we were able to create a centimeter-scale pancreatic-like tissue construct capable of producing glucose-stimulated insulin release exceeding current organoid based approaches.” https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-bioprint-living-tissues-that-could-revolutionize-diabetes-treatment/ XX Another study showing the blood sugar benefit of walking after a meal. Skeletal muscle plays a central role in glucose uptake. Exercise stimulates glucose transport into muscle cells through insulin-independent pathways, notably through the action of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4), which is responsible for transporting glucose from blood to skeletal muscles.4 This means that even without a robust insulin response, physical activity can facilitate glucose clearance from the bloodstream. These effects also occur without requiring high-intensity exercise, making postprandial walking accessible to a broad range of individuals, including those with limited exercise tolerance. multiple studies show that starting activity within 30 minutes after a meal is optimal. https://www.news-medical.net/health/Walking-After-Meals-Small-Habit-Big-Metabolic-Gains.aspx XX Dexcom brings back Dexcom U for a 4th years. This is a name, image and license program for college athletes with diabetes and includes a nationwide open call for passionate and inspiring college athletes to join its roster. Now through May 23, athletes, coaches, friends and family members can nominate candidates through an online submission. Those selected, along with the eight returning athletes from last year, will be invited to attend the Dexcom U Signing Day Camp this summer, hosted by Dexcom Warrior and Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews. https://www.hmenews.com/article/dexcom-u-returns-for-fourth-season

(Piano music stops) Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. Episode six of Screamers is going to take us on an interesting journey into  Screamer anatomy because the sixth thing I like about screamers is their weird anatomical quirks. Last episode we talked about one of their special anatomical accessories, the spurs. In this episode we will look at two more of the Screamer's anatomical anomalies that also pertain to the skeleton. Many of you have probably heard somewhere that birds have hollow bones. This is a simplified statement about bird bone anatomy. We will need to understand this a bit before we talk about screamer bones, so, those of you that already know this, bear with me, for those of you who are hearing this for the first time, hold on to your hat, I'm about to blow you mind. Vertebrate skeletons are made up of hard, calcium rich bones. It's what give our bodies their shape and ability to move. Birds are vertebrates so they rely on their skeleton to give their body shape and act as the anchor for muscles to allow them movement, just like mammals. Avian bones are special because they have adapted to the bird's need to fly. If you have too much weight defying gravity can be difficult. Flighted birds adapted to this challenge by evolving less solid bones than mammals.  Using the word hollow, makes you think of a tube, such as a straw or toilet paper tube that is completely open inside with no internal structure. You can look through one end and see clearly out the other end with no obstacles. Bird bones are not hollow in this manner. Their bones have an internal structure throughout the tube. If we were to look inside a bird's bone we would see more of a honeycomb design. It's essentially bones with air pockets. These are called pneumatic bones.  The bones have lessened weight by getting rid of dense material but have increased strength by adding structure throughout the middle of the bone. This is how flighted birds can get off the ground and fly. They have bones that contain more air that provide structure for the body and muscles without being so solid that flying is a struggle.  Now having said this, if we look at an average flighted bird, say a Bald Eagle or a Northern Cardinal, not all of their bones have this honeycomb structure. Typically, the larger bones will have this structure and smaller bones will not. The smaller bones will be more solid. This is where the Screamer skeletal oddity applies. All the bones in a screamer have this open honeycomb structure. All of them, including the smallest toe bone. Screamers have the most pneumatic skeleton of any living bird. And we have no idea why.  Screamers are good flyers. Once they get up into the air, they soar like vultures, riding the thermals. They can soar for hours at a time, but as we know they spend most of their time on the ground in or around water. They are a larger bird, so maybe this has to do with their interesting bone structure. On the other hand, geese and swans are the same size, are great flyers and spend most of their time on or near the water, but they do not have this skeletal anomaly.  This is not the only abnormality about the Screamer skeleton. Another oddity sets Screamers apart from almost all other birds. This interesting tidbit involves the uncinate processes. As before, we need to do a short anatomy lesson to fully understand the anatomical oddity of the Screamer.  The uncinate process is a bony projection that is attached to vertebral ribs in avian skeletons. These projections are important in avian respiration. Birds do not have a muscular diaphragm like mammals to help them inflate and deflate the lungs. Birds rely on the movement of their sternum to breathe. That's why it's so important to hold birds properly when restraining them for veterinary care or scientific measurements. If you put too much pressure on the sternum, you can suffocate them.  Studies have shown that the uncinate processes are integral in avian respiration acting as attachment site for muscles used in the mechanics of breathing. The presence of an uncinate process on the ribs of a bird increased the respiration function by 2 to 4 compared to a bird without an uncinate process. These processes allow the bird to more easily rotate the dorsal ribs forward, pushing the sternum down and inflating the lungs. Seems pretty important to me! The length of the uncinate process varies by species and seems to be impacted by what physical activities the bird partakes in most often, for example walkers versus divers versus non-specialist birds. Further studies have shown that the uncinate process is actually important in both inhalation and exhalation in birds. I don't think I need to tell you this, but this little bone extension seems like a mighty useful tool and one that all birds should have, but the title of the episode isn't Screamers: Skeletal Normalities but Screamers: Skeletal Anomalies.  So, here it is folks. Screamers do not have uncinate processes. That's right, they do not have these little bones that are so helpful for breathing. And once again, we don't know why. None of the three species of Screamers have uncinate processes. They can breath, clearly they are living creatures that process oxygen just like the rest of us, but unlike most species of birds they do not utilize uncinate processes to do it. Every episode I write about these incredible birds makes me like them more and more. I hope you think so too because my sixth favorite thing about Screamers is their skeletal anomalies. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about Screamers.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

Today's podcast features Mike Bruno. Mike is the Assistant Director of Olympic Sports Performance at Clemson University. Mike has both a sports performance and massage therapy background, with an approach influenced heavily by Bill Hartman's biomechanical model. He has worked with a wide variety of sports, including track and field, and currently oversees golf and tennis at Clemson. Human movement is composed of more than just muscle and neural signals. It is also heavily influenced by athletes' strategies to move pressure through their unique skeletal structures. By understanding the role of structure on speed and movement abilities, we can also better understand ideal training modalities and progressions for each athlete. On today's episode, Mike speaks on speed and power training through the lens of pressure management and skeletal structure. He talks about different structural archetypes and their needs in the weightroom, as well as how these archetypes lend to various performance outputs on the field of play (focusing on track speed and performance). With many anecdotes from the world of track and field, this episode draws numerous links between strength, speed and individual training factors.

Angela presents a special compilation episode, dedicated to exploring the critical role of skeletal muscle health, mastering fat loss, metabolism and blood sugar in optimising longevity and metabolic resilience. Featuring insights from experts Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart, Danielle Hamilton and Barielle Lyon, the discussion covers the science behind metabolic flexibility, reverse dieting, and the common pitfalls of traditional fat loss approaches. Hear practical strategies for maintaining a healthy metabolism, especially after the holiday season, and how to navigate indulgences without sacrificing your health goals. KEY TAKEAWAYS Muscle is the key to longevity: Skeletal muscle is essential for metabolic health, resilience, and optimal aging. Protein intake is critical: Aim for 1g of protein per pound of ideal body weight to support muscle and overall health. Avoid common fat loss mistakes: Calorie-cutting without strategy can harm metabolism; focus on building muscle and metabolic flexibility instead. Reverse dieting prevents weight regain: Gradually increasing calories after weight loss helps maintain results. Circadian rhythms impact glucose control: Morning light exposure and meal timing are crucial for balancing blood sugar. Fasted training considerations: While it works for some, post-training refueling is key for muscle maintenance, especially in older adults. Perimenopause requires a tailored approach: Resistance training and protein intake are pivotal for managing body composition changes. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS 0:06 – Importance of skeletal muscle for optimal aging.3:09 – Myths about calories in, calories out.5:57 – Metabolism and its influence on fat loss strategies.11:33 – Avoiding weight regain through reverse dieting.17:58 – Flexible dieting and strategic fasting/spike days.25:54 – Blood sugar regulation and its wide-ranging health impacts.42:24 – Circadian rhythm's role in optimizing metabolism.48:05 – Longevity and muscle health, starting early or beginning now.50:09 – Protein requirements for skeletal muscle maintenance.53:58 – Protein intake adjustments for perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.58:18 – Training in a fasted state and its implications.1:01:16 – Refueling post-workout and its role in muscle health.1:05:06 – Skeletal muscle and its connection to glucose disposal.

THIS EPISODE:Join us on All Things Unexplained as we delve into a groundbreaking discussion with Dr. Elizabeth Weiss, a leading anthropologist from San José State University. In this episode, we explore her latest research, "The Study of California's Past is Dead and Reburied," which uncovers the cessation of human skeletal remains studies in California's public universities due to regulatory changes and new laws like AB226 and AB389. Dr. Weiss shares insights into how these changes are not only affecting scientific research but also the teaching of anthropology and archaeology. Discover how these policies are reshaping our understanding of California's prehistoric past and what this means for the future of anthropological studies. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges the intersection of science, law, and cultural heritage.ARTICLE: https://journalofcontroversialideas.org/article/4/2/283Anthropology & Beyond with Dr. Elizabeth Weisshttps://youtube.com/live/zusToSQNYMw?feature=shareOn the Warpath https://amzn.to/4f5Dway (small % supports ATU)

One should know that type 2 DM is not only caused by beta cell dysfunction of pancreas. There are eight different organs of body involved in the pathophysiology of T2 DM. 1. Beta cells of pancreas, that they don't produce enough insulin. 2. Alpha cells of pancreas produce disproportionately high glucagon as there is poor suppression of glucagon in the post meal phase, causing post prandial hyperglycemia. 3. Liver produces extra glucose causing high fasting blood glucose. 4. Skeletal muscles have poor uptake of glucose, which increases blood glucose. 5. Adipose tissue produces higher fatty acid. 6. Incretin hormone from intestine also show dysregulation (GLPl & GIP) 7. Kidney increase glucose reabsorption from proximal convoluted tubules 8. Brains satiety centers show dysregulation. 9. Thus, while treating a case of T2 DM, we should address all Eight Arms of, So called “Ominous Octet”.

Today's podcast features movement-focused strength coach Julien Pineau, founder of Strongfit. With a background in sports ranging from competitive swimming to MMA and strongman, Julien started coaching in 1993 and opened his strongman-focused gym in 2008. Known for his integration of all systems of the body, along with his eye for human movement, he's worked with athletes across various disciplines, pursuing growth both inward and outward. It's easy to get overly accustomed to the typical training tools we are provided with. What is now the standard of physical training on the level of barbells, dumbells, machines, and heavy linear conditioning, however, is quite different than the physical demands on a human in our native environment. In so many ways, training with a sandbag is a great equalizer, as it brings online, so many of our instinctive human systems, and reminds us of our innate function. In today's episode, Julien explores human instinct and body intelligence in training, covering sensory aspects (myotomes) of hands and feet, the role of anxiety/frustration, isometrics, the nervous system, the heart's intelligence, bone loading, grip strength, and more. This insightful discussion touches on essential training and performance concepts.

Main Points 2:00- The story of what led Julien to sandbag training 8:00- The role of frustration in training, and its role with awkward objects and difficult situations 13:00- The role of myotomes in using one's hand in manual labor, squeezing, and sandbag training 17:00- Anxiety found in chronic training practice, and the role of using prolonged rest and frustration to force greater focus on the given sessions 22:30- What martial arts give a generalist from a training and psychological perspective 33:40- The value of sustained movements, such as a long isometric hold, and withholding value 38:30- Defining the somatic system of the body, along with the strength of the heart 43:00- The role of the heart's strength and function in PTSD 49:00- Dynamics of loaded carries, isometrics, sandbags, and holistic function of the body (along with myotome function) 59:00- Isolation versus compound movements on the level of myotome function 1:01:45- Grip strength, pulling and deadlifting dynamics 1:04:00- Embodied aspects of training and the body, related to the intelligence of the heart 1:07:00- The relationship of the gut biome to one's conscious thought 1:12:00- Bone Crushing Strength: Myotomes, foot training, grip, and overall body strength 1:21:45- Managing balance in the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the nervous system Quotes 7:10 "All the strong men back there were wrestlers; back then it was seen as the best way to get strong. It was less 1-rep max, more being able to move with stuff” 8:50 “I think anxiety is a chronic version of frustration” 12:55 “Frustration is created by your environment; you can change your envionrment or you can deal with it” 13:30: “A 200lb sandbag and a 200lb barbell are not the same thing” 17:25 “A lot of time is just ego lifting, they turn anything that is acute into a chronic state; you will notice those people that train 6 times a week, they are on the anxious side because they are turning everything into a chronic state” 18:20 “Anxious people go to Crossift more” 27:45 “If we take frustration and try to lower it,

On the outside we all look different, but on the inside all of us are propped up by a frame of collagen, calcium, and minerals forming the human skeleton. And it's not just us with the bones—most of the animals we see around us have them too. These graveyard greeters might have a grim reputation that often make them a symbol of Halloween, but Ashley Mason Burns-Meerschaert—director of operations and education at Oklahoma City's Museum of Osteology—joins the show today to explain why they might not be so scary after all, and give us a scoop on how to get involved with their Forensic Nights.

Our bodies typically do a remarkable job of recovering from certain injuries, and thyroid hormone signaling has an essential role to play there. But what is that process like for someone with hypothyroidism, and is there a unique role in that process for muscle stem cells? Host Aaron Lohr talks with Paola Aguiari, PhD, a senior research specialist at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. She presented an abstract at ENDO 2024 titled, “Hypothyroidism Impairs Skeletal Muscle Regeneration After Injury.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp91-hypothyroidism-and-muscle-regeneration — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast

The Manitowoc County Sheriff's Office is investigating the discovery of human skeletal remains found on private property in the town of Two Rivers, Wisconsin, on Saturday. The remains were located by a local deer hunter, who immediately notified law enforcement. As of now, authorities have not confirmed whether the remains are related to the case of 4-year-old Elijah Vue, who has been missing since February 2024. The sheriff's office, in a statement posted to Facebook on Sunday, said, "Identifying the remains will be a lengthy process," emphasizing that the investigation is still ongoing. No details regarding the race, sex, or age of the remains have been released at this time. The department added that it is working closely with multiple agencies, including the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation, the Wisconsin State Crime Lab, the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Anthropology Department, the Two Rivers Police Department, and the Manitowoc County Coroner's Office. This discovery comes as the community remains on high alert following the disappearance of Elijah Vue, who was reported missing on February 20, 2024. Elijah's fourth birthday was marked by a community event on August 25, 2024, at Kiwanis Park in Appleton, but his whereabouts remain unknown. Vue was reported missing by Jesse Vang, the boyfriend of Elijah's mother, Katrina Baur. Vang told police that he last saw Elijah at around 8 a.m. on the day of his disappearance after he punished the child by making him stand and pray. Vang claims that he fell asleep and when he awoke nearly three hours later, Elijah was gone. Vang reported the boy missing at 10:59 a.m. from their apartment on Mishicot Road in Two Rivers. Both Vang and Baur were arrested shortly after Elijah's disappearance and charged with child neglect. Vang is being held on a $20,000 cash bond, while Baur remains in custody on a $15,000 cash bond. Baur faces felony child neglect charges as well as two misdemeanors for neglect involving another child and resisting or obstructing an officer. Both are awaiting court appearances, with Vang scheduled for a status conference on September 27 and Baur on October 22. The search for Elijah has been extensive, involving canvassing urban and rural neighborhoods, river searches, drone surveillance, and K9 teams. Investigators also searched a landfill in Calumet County and a farm waste container in Manitowoc County. In addition, video footage has been thoroughly analyzed, and horseback searches of rural farmland have been conducted. The investigation has even extended to Baur's hometown of Wisconsin Dells. Authorities continue to offer a reward for information leading to Elijah's discovery or the arrest of those responsible for his disappearance. The FBI is offering $15,000, Manitowoc County Crime Stoppers an additional $10,000, and the city of Two Rivers is providing another $15,000, making the total reward $40,000. The sheriff's office has promised further updates as the investigation continues. Meanwhile, the community holds its breath, hoping for answers in the disappearance of Elijah Vue. #ElijahVue #TwoRivers #ManitowocCounty #HumanRemains #ChildNeglect #MissingChildren #OngoingInvestigation Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode:Skeletal muscles are made up of fast twitch and slow twitch fibers each of which has differing properties. The amount of each fiber in muscle varies from person to person and while it is possible to determine this makeup, it is not so easy. The architecture of muscle in each individual is important in determining how a person can perform in different types of sports and also, how each will respond to training. Should people try to determine what their muscle typology is and adapt their training to it? We discuss in the Medical Mailbag. Kennon Heard is an emergency physician and endurance athlete who collapsed in cardiac arrest after a family fun run in May. He discusses his experience and how he is moving forward as well as how the rest of us should think about this experience in context of our own endurance pursuits as we age.Segments:[10:30]- Medical Mailbag: Muscle typology and training[35:14]- Interview: Kennon HeardLinksLearn CPR

On this episode of the podcast, host Amanda Head dives deep into the contentious world of academic research with Professor Emeritus of Anthropology at San Jose State University and author Dr. Elizabeth Weiss, known for her truth-telling book, "On the Warpath: My Battles With Indians, Pretendians, and Woke Warriors." They explore the critical tension between identity politics and objective truth, particularly in the fields of anthropology and forensic science. Dr. Weiss argues that the reburial of skeletal remains without clear tribal connections obstructs the education of future forensic anthropologists and results in the loss of invaluable historical information. The duo also unpacks the increasingly complex and polarized landscape of academic discourse in America today, challenging everyone to reconsider the priorities and practices within scholarly research.You can buy Dr. Weiss' new book, “On the Warpath: My Battles With Indians, Pretendians, and Woke Warriors” on Amazon.com today.

Dale and Ryan acknowledge that skeletal correctness is high on all judge's list of priorities, yet many do not interpret it in the same manner.

Maintaining and building skeletal muscle mass is great for strength today...and tomorrow. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, the author of "Forever Strong" explores today how to go about building muscle mass and why. She goes over its preventative effect against "diseases of aging", like cancer, diabetes, and obesity. She specifies which exercises are actually the most effective for muscular health and what dietary choices are critical as we age. She even gets into if there's such a thing as acquiring TOO much muscle on the body and what to do if arthritic pain and/or illness makes exercising difficult in the first place.   Check out Gabrielle's website: drgabriellelyon.com Subscribe to Wise Traditions on your favorite podcast app Find more resources at westonaprice.org See our sponsors: Optimal Carnivore and Vintage Tradition
