Podcasts about steroids

Think about the last time you had to time something perfectly. Maybe it taking that perfect swing at the baseball, or catching a flight after a commute, or making a high-stakes decision. In the world of high-risk pregnancy, clinicians play a constant game of high-stakes timing with a usual medication called antenatal corticosteroids. Given to moms at risk of giving birth early, these steroids are a gamechanger for a preterm neonate. But there's a catch. If you give them too early, the benefits fade. If you give them too late and she delivers very quickly, they don't have time to work. A brand-new study published in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology by Mark Clapp et al reveals just how incredibly difficult this balancing act is. This data shows that nearly 26% of pregnant individuals who received these steroids actually went on to deliver completely full-term, exposing babies to medications they might not have needed. So how do we as clinicians solve this OB Goldilocks problem where the stakes are a newborn baby's health? On today's episode, we break down the data behind 'maximizing benefit while avoiding overuse' and what it means for real world practice.Strong Coffee Company - Protein Coffee PLUS MORE; Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: CHAPANOSPINOBG https://promocode.to/strong-coffee-company/chapanospinobg-hbv1.

In this episode of the Lupus Foundation of America's The Expert Series podcast, we focus on how steroids are an essential and often life-saving treatment for people with lupus, even though the new SLE guidelines recommend using them as little as possible. Our guest speaker, Dr. Megan Lockwood, walks us through why steroids play such a critical role in lupus care, the potential risks and downsides of prolonged use and why limiting their use whenever possible is equally important. We also discuss how patients can work with their health care providers to develop a thoughtful, personalized steroid plan and have productive conversations with their doctors about managing steroid treatment.Sign up to receive emails from the Lupus Foundation of America (LFA) when new episodes are published: https://support.lupus.org/site/SPageNavigator/email_subscribe_expert_series.htmlThis episode will help you understand:How steroid mechanism of actionThe importance of minimizing steroid useShort and long-term side effects of steroidsAlternatives to steroids in lupus treatmentSafe steroid tapering strategiesFuture treatments and research developmentsRelated Resources:Ask a Lupus Health Educator (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/care-support/ask-a-health-educatorFind Support Near You (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/find-support-near-youNational Resource Center on Lupus (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resourcesThe Expert Series (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/lupus-the-expert-seriesMedications Used to Treat Lupus (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/medications-used-to-treat-lupus

Welcome to Episode 148 of ShiftLess! Coming at you straight from the mobile van studio, Kevin and Chef Brad dive deep into the gear trends dominating this year's Tour Divide. From the undeniable takeover of rear racks (shoutout Tailfin) over traditional saddlebags to the absolute dominance of Vittoria Mezcals, we are breaking down what the ultra-endurance crowd is actually running.We also get into the weeds on Scott's flat-bar Scale RC—is a 20lb rigid mountain bike really a "gravel" bike?—the disruptive arrival of X-Labs and XDS in the carbon market, and why we are still waiting for that 32-inch wheel revolution to finally hit the dirt.Then, things get real as we tackle the elephant in the peloton: performance-enhancing drugs. Are massive "carbs per hour" claims and extreme ketone use just a convenient mask for a new era of undetectable PEDs? We compare modern cycling's explosive power numbers to the Lance Armstrong and Mark McGwire eras of sports.Plus, an exciting USA Trail update as the Florida segment is officially done and dusted, some pop-culture nostalgia, and Chef Brad walks us through his insane 9-course summer pop-up dinner menu.Tour Divide Gear Check: The massive shift from saddlebags to rear racks, Garmin vs. Coros Dura, and the missing 32-inch test bikes.Industry Shakeups: Scott's Scale Gravel RC blurring the MTB lines and how XDS might completely disrupt carbon bike pricing.The PED Conspiracy: A candid discussion on TRT, ketones, and whether the pro peloton is quietly slipping back into its old ways.USA Trail Update: Florida scouting is completely verified and finished.Off The Bars: Hawk attacks in the yard, 25 years of The Fast and the Furious, and Chef Brad's 95-degree friendly 9-course culinary masterclass.Tags/Keywords:Tour Divide 2024, Bikepacking Gear, Tailfin Rack, Gravel Cycling, Scott Scale Gravel RC, XDS Bikes, PEDs in Cycling, Pro Peloton Doping, USA Trail Route, Basepacking, ShiftLess PodcastIn This Episode:Shiftless Ep. 148: Tour Divide Preview, Gear Trends, 32-inch Wheels, and Doping TalkIn Shiftless episode 148, the hosts preview the Tour Divide and discuss last year's fastest time by Robin (11 days, 19 hours, 14 minutes) being ineligible due to reroutes, then review Bikepacking.com's rig data: no 32-inch bikes in the field, rear racks now dominate (about 77%) led by Tailfin, flat bars slightly outnumber drop bars, Salsa remains the biggest brand (mostly Cutthroats) though with reduced share, Mezcal tires are most common, and electronic drivetrains and Coros Dura computers are more prevalent. They debate Scott's marketing around 32-inch prototypes and a rigid flat-bar “Scott Scale Gravel RC” listed as a gravel bike, and reflect on generational gaps and monoculture. 00:00 Tour Divide Preview Kickoff00:28 Record Pace Reality Check01:20 Gear Teasers And Hot Takes03:39 Reroutes And Last Year Recap04:52 Surprise Visitor Interruption06:47 Back To Divide Gear Trends09:04 Racks Droppers And Old School12:43 Brands Tires And Bike Computers19:16 No 32s And Scott Marketing23:08 Scott Scale Gravel Confusion24:33 Generational Gap And Monoculture31:08 Cycling's Missing Youth32:21 Marketing to New Riders33:53 Scott Bike Lineup Hunt34:58 Steroids and Spectacle37:49 Is That Really Gravel40:59 Doping Returns Debate51:52 Fast and Furious Detour54:15 Better Call Saul Talk58:50 Backyard Hawks and Snakes01:00:35 USA Trail and Industry News01:04:46 Will Prices Backtrack01:05:21 China Subsidy Advantage01:06:05 Carbon Rims and Rebrands01:08:07 China vs Taiwan Fact Check01:09:39 XDS Scale and Market Reality01:11:14 E-Bike Market Direction01:13:58 Tour de France and Side Tangents01:16:47 Wildlife Yard Interlude01:19:15 Pop-Up Dinner Menu Breakdown01:23:15 Rides Weather and Moto Luggage01:26:02 Tour Hype and Doping Debate01:34:45 Where Supplements Become Doping01:38:25 Lance Era Doubt and Wrap-Up

Today we have another Pulm PEEPs Pearls episode about a core critical care topic. Furf and Monty will be giving a high level overview of the use of steroids in sepsis including a review of the relevant literature and recent guidelines, and pragmatic bedside points. Contributors This episode was prepared with research by Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor George Doumat. Dustin Latimer, another Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor, assisted with audio and video editing. Key Learning Points Why Steroids in Sepsis? Steroids do not treat the infection — antimicrobials are always first and remain the cornerstone. The goal is addressing critical illness–related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI), where cortisol production cannot keep up with the overwhelming inflammatory demand of septic shock. Hydrocortisone helps in two main ways: Blunts the dysregulated inflammatory response — tempers the excessive vasodilation and febrile response that drive harm beyond the infection itself. Restores vascular sensitivity to catecholamines — sepsis downregulates adrenergic receptors; steroids turn that responsiveness back on. Clinical takeaway: The first thing you notice is vasopressor weaning (or a bend in the escalation curve) — not a rapid improvement in fever or white count. Caveat: These trials predate modern sepsis phenotyping. None distinguish hyperinflammatory vs. hypoinflammatory responders — they treat all comers. The Evidence: Four Landmark Trials Every IM resident and critical care fellow will eventually journal-club these four. The most consistent signal across all of them is faster shock reversal and reduced vasopressor use; the mortality question remains unsettled. Trial (Year)NRegimenKey FindingAnnane (2002)~300Hydrocortisone + fludrocortisoneMortality benefit in ACTH non-responders; criticized methodology and messy cortisol-response testing; not cleanly replicated.CORTICUS (2008)~500Hydrocortisone aloneFaster shock reversal but no mortality benefit, regardless of cortisol responsiveness. Raised (later allayed) superinfection concern. Cornerstone for abandoning routine cort-stim testing.ADRENAL (2018)~3,800Hydrocortisone aloneFaster vasopressor weaning; no 90-day mortality benefit.APROCCHSS (2018)~1,200Hydrocortisone + fludrocortisoneMortality benefit at 90 days. Bottom line: Faster shock reversal is consistent. Mortality benefit appears in 2 of 4 trials (both used fludrocortisone) but not the others. A 2026 meta-analysis showed benefit for hydrocortisone + fludrocortisone vs. placebo, but not for hydrocortisone + fludrocortisone vs. hydrocortisone alone — suggesting hydrocortisone drives the main effect. Who Gets Steroids, and When? 2021 Surviving Sepsis: Consider steroids for norepinephrine or epinephrine ≥ 0.25 mcg/kg/min for ≥ 4 hours despite adequate resuscitation — a reasonable bedside trigger. Early 2026 update: Moved away from a specific numeric trigger — consider steroids when a septic patient is not responding well to vasopressors or has escalating requirements. Make a clinical decision. (Quality of evidence: low to moderate.) Go faster than the threshold when: Known/suspected adrenal insufficiency or home steroids, or florid pressor-requiring shock on arrival. A practical escalation sequence: escalating norepinephrine → add vasopressin (per VASST) → then add steroids if requirements keep climbing. Do NOT wait for an ACTH stimulation test. It does not reliably predict who responds and only delays treatment. Sepsis is an elevated-cortisol state but can dissociate ACTH and cortisol, and cortisol-binding globulin is depleted — the test is too messy to guide care. What to Give: The Regimen Standard dose: Hydrocortisone 200 mg/day, typically 50 mg IV Q6H. (Original trials often used continuous infusions, rarely used in the U.S.) Some start with a 100 mg bolus to gain control. Higher dose: If chronically on steroids / adrenally insufficient, consider ~300 mg/day (e.g., 100 mg Q8H). Fludrocortisone: Unsettled. The two mortality-benefit trials added it (50 mcg PO/NG/OG daily), but hydrocortisone already has mineralocorticoid activity and meta-analyses don't show added benefit over hydrocortisone alone. Most clinicians omit it — adding it is reasonable and safe, just be honest about the uncertainty. Duration & Tapering Typical course: ~7 days is most common. Trial practices varied (ADRENAL ~7 days; VANISH used a taper after 6 days; some continue until pressors are off). No taper needed. You do not need to taper for adrenal insufficiency after a short course — just stop. If pressors dramatically rebound, you can restart, but most patients have gained the benefit they'll get by day 7. Pitfalls & Safety Hyperglycemia: Expected and must be managed (monitor closely; insulin drip if needed). No signal for major DKA / severe complications in the trials. Superinfection / fungal infection: The most-quoted concern, but the overall literature does not show a convincing, statistically significant increase. Be disciplined about stopping on schedule. Muscle weakness: Steroids can worsen critical illness myopathy; a short 7-day course likely has limited effect, but be aware. Other: GI bleeding (follow general PPI prophylaxis guidance) and sodium disturbances (watch for hyper-/hyponatremia). Two things we know: (1) steroids shorten duration of vasopressor support, and (2) they are relatively safe in sepsis. Whether they improve mortality — and in whom — remains open. The Five Pulm PEEPs Pearls Mechanism: Steroids restore catecholamine vascular sensitivity and blunt dysregulated inflammation. The clinical target is vasopressor weaning, not infection treatment. Evidence: Faster shock reversal is the most consistent finding. Mortality benefit is seen in 2 of 4 trials but not the others — still controversial. Some patients likely benefit; we don't yet know who. Trigger: A practical 2021 threshold is levo/epi ≥ 0.25 mcg/kg/min for ≥ 4 hours. Newer guidance drops the strict number — make a clinical decision based on poor pressor response or escalation. Dose: Hydrocortisone 200 mg/day (e.g., 50 mg Q6H). Adding fludrocortisone mirrors two trials, but meta-analyses find no benefit over hydrocortisone alone. Safety: Steroids appear safe in sepsis. Monitor and treat hyperglycemia; no marked increase in superinfection.

An injection can take away your sciatica, but it doesn't heal the injury causing it — and that distinction decides whether you get better.If you've had, or you're being offered, a steroid injection, epidural or nerve block for sciatica or a herniated disc (a slipped disc or disc bulge) at L4/L5 or L5/S1, this session reframes the whole decision around one question: what is this injection doing to help my injury heal, not just my pain? Get that right and an injection can be a useful tool. Get it wrong and it's a mask — the pain lifts, you carry on as before, and the injury that caused it is still there.

Most men think erectile dysfunction is a bedroom problem. It's actually one of the earliest warning signs of cardiovascular disease, capable of showing up three to five years before a heart attack.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Amy Pearlman, a urologist trained in men's sexual health, to discuss:Why ED is a symptom of vascular health, not a standalone disease and how the artery feeding the heart is roughly double the size of the one feeding the penis, so problems show up "down there" firstWhy "normal" testosterone can be meaningless, and the questions to ask before accepting a lab result that didn't flagHow daily erections preserve penile tissue the way water keeps a sponge supple and why disuse can cost noticeable size over just a few monthsThat cardiovascular exercise can rival ED medication for improving erectile function, making your heart health the real fixHow to track erectile fitness before there's a problem, instead of waiting until something breaksBy the end, you'll understand the single signal your body uses to flag heart and metabolic risk early and the simple, mostly drug-free steps that protect both your cardiovascular health and your sexual function for life.Thank you to our sponsors:Manukora - Go to https://bit.ly/3RCMrKx to save 31% plus $25 worth of free gifts.Timeline - Get 20% off your Mitopure order at https://bit.ly/4dW6BGNBon Charge - Save 15% at https://bit.ly/433Xi2B with code DRLYONExplore More from Dr. Gabrielle LyonPremium Podcast Subscription: Ad-free episodes, key takeaway summaries, exclusive Q&A, and behind-the-scenes content https://foreverstrong.supercast.comWeekly newsletter: Recipes, podcast updates, and practical weekly insights https://drgabriellelyon.com/sign-up/Apply to become a patient: Personalized care with Dr. Lyon's clinical team https://drgabriellelyon.com/new-patient-inquiry/Listen to "Pearls of Wisdom" on all your favorite platforms!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4uOhWn5DeVXO7D2ppa0RoVApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pearls-of-wisdom/id1617916659Find Dr. Amy Pearlman at:Website: https://www.primeinstitute.us/YouTube: https://youtube.com/@docamyurology?si=oJ2LZ_sxMPYTaK41Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amypearlmanmd/X: https://x.com/AmyPearlman1LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-pearlman-54a2b0208Connect with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/TikTok: @drgabriellelyonX (Twitter): https://x.com/drgabriellelyonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyonTimestamps00:00 - Introduction01:25 - Erections predict cardiac events01:41 - The pen and artery analogy03:40 - No health milestones for men07:52 - Normal structure and function11:45 - The five S's of men's health21:24 - Why "normal" testosterone misleads25:00 - Testosterone and fertility risk31:05 - Steroids versus FDA-approved agents41:13 - The untreated 25-year-old43:56 - Sperm health and home testing52:02 - Peyronie's disease and injury1:01:34 - Protein, nutrition, supplements1:05:09 - Daily Cialis as a pre-workout1:13:32 - The sponge analogy1:15:31 - Erectile fitness tracking1:23:05 - The penis pump, used right1:27:24 - Restoring lost size1:35:00 - Traction and girth enhancement1:46:00 - Women's anatomy and pleasureIf you found this episode valuable, share it with someone who would benefit from it.Disclaimers: This episode includes paid sponsorships.The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

The Enhanced Games are kind of like the Olympics except everyone is on performance enhancing drugs. The organizers want to push back on the shame of doping. But they're also trying to sell you something.

Enhanced Games Debut in Las Vegas as the First Openly Drug-Enabled "Biohacker Olympics" The inaugural Enhanced Games took place in Las Vegas with more than 40 elite athletes competing openly while using performance-enhancing drugs, a $25 million prize pool, and a $1 million world record bonus on the table. Host Dave Asprey, who serves on the advisory board of the Enhanced Games, breaks down why this event is less a sports story than a cultural signal: enhancement has moved from underground to prime time, and the institutions that spent decades controlling that conversation through drug testing and bans watched it happen on a stage in Las Vegas. Dave explains why WADA has always existed to protect institutions rather than athletes, why bodily sovereignty is the real issue at the center of this debate, and what it means that even with full transparency about what every athlete was taking, the records didn't fall quite the way you'd expect. The Enhanced Games are the closest thing yet to a public beta test for extreme human enhancement, and the data it generates will matter far beyond sport.

Host Dave Asprey breaks down the biology of what happens when the immune system stops containing an infection and starts attacking the body systemwide, why sepsis can escalate from manageable symptoms to a life-threatening emergency faster than most people expect, and why even someone with great biomarkers and a dialed-in health stack can be blindsided by an acute inflammatory crisis. The warning signs matter: worsening breathing, confusion, rapid decline, and a sense that something is badly wrong are emergency symptoms, not signals to wait and see. Longevity is not only about optimization rituals. It includes knowing when your biology is in crisis and acting before the window closes.

When Menin declined, aging accelerated. When researchers restored it in older mice, memory improved and lifespan increased. Host Dave Asprey explains why this finding challenges the dominant wear-and-tear model of aging, what it means that the hypothalamus may be running a coordinated aging program rather than simply accumulating damage over time, and why a control-room model of aging points toward fundamentally different intervention strategies than chasing downstream symptoms like fatigue and memory loss. The research connects aging to neuroinflammation, which has direct implications for how biohackers think about hypothalamic health right now. It is still animal research, but the mechanistic case is strong and the implications for longevity science are significant.

Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this result reframes depression as an immune biology problem for a meaningful subset of patients rather than a purely neurochemical one, and why the same inflammatory pathway that drives joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis is showing up in the brains of people who don't respond to antidepressants. The practical implication is not to seek out a biologic drug off-label. It is to recognize that persistent low mood, fatigue, and low resilience may warrant a deeper biological workup than standard screening provides, starting with IL-6, CRP, and a full inflammatory panel. The brain is downstream of the immune system more than most psychiatry has been willing to admit, and this trial is the clearest evidence yet of why that matters.

Host Dave Asprey explains why this finding is liberating rather than deterministic, what it means that genetics loads the dice on lifespan more than the mainstream has been willing to admit, and why personalized longevity strategy matters far more than generic population-level advice. Your genes load the dice but you still roll them. The study pushes the field toward genetic stratification and biomarker-based personalization, and it validates the core premise that the same intervention will not produce the same outcome in every person. Get your genetics tested and build your strategy from your own baseline, not from what worked for the average person in a study.

Taylor Haynes dropped by for Quick Draw and gave Ricki and Tim a genuinely cooked update on the crab attack that’s still haunting her weeks later. Turns out the crab did so much nerve damage she’s now on steroids to avoid surgery, which naturally led to Tim accusing her of getting “jacked” from seafood. Taylor also revealed the crab cost $2,500, had tiny zip-tie handcuffs on and absolutely refused to let go while she tried to keep smiling live on TV. Then Quick Draw kicked off and somehow included the category “name a seafood dish starting with C,” which felt deeply personal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, Peggy Burkhard talks with Dr. Amar Kelkar of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute about the medical side of survivorship after bone marrow, stem cell, or CAR-T transplant. The conversation begins with the important shift from the urgent “save my life” phase to the longer “protect my health” phase. Dr. Kelkar explains that this transition often starts around the 100-day mark, though timing varies by transplant center, geographical region and patient needs. A major theme is the need to restart routine care that may have been paused during transplant. Dental care, dermatology, ophthalmology, and primary care all become important again. Dental visits are especially important because oral graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) can cause dry mouth, irritation, cavities, and other problems. Skin checks matter because transplant can increase the risk of skin cancers. Dr. Kelkar stresses annual dermatology visits, sun protection, SPF 50 or higher, protective clothing, and smart decisions about sun exposure. Fatigue is another central topic. Dr. Kelkar describes post-transplant fatigue as different from normal tiredness. It can feel deep, physical, and mental, and it may last for months or even years. He encourages patients to pace themselves, listen to their bodies, and build activity back slowly. Returning to work also needs to be individualized. Some patients work remotely during treatment, while others may need extended disability or a gradual return. The episode also covers immune recovery and repeat vaccinations. Dr. Kelkar explains that after transplant, the immune system has been reset, and many childhood vaccines need to be repeated. Most programs begin revaccination around six, nine, or 12 months, depending on immune suppression and other factors. He reassures listeners that many patients have fewer vaccine symptoms early on because their immune systems are still rebuilding. Dr. Kelkar also reviews long-term screening and prevention. Survivors need routine cancer screenings, including mammograms, colonoscopies, lung cancer screening when appropriate, skin exams, and monitoring for thyroid or other changes. Metabolic health is also important. Steroids can affect blood sugar, transplant can change body composition, and quick weight loss often includes muscle loss. Nutrition support and exercise programs can help, and Peggy notes that Blood Cancer United offers nutrition services for patients and caregivers. Blood Cancer United's nutrition program provides free one-on-one consultations with oncology dietitians by phone or email. Bone health, hormone changes, sexual health, and early aging are also discussed. Dr. Kelkar explains that steroids, menopause, testosterone changes, vitamin D deficiency, and time indoors can affect bones. Many centers use DEXA scans and vitamin D supplementation. He also encourages patients to bring up sexual health concerns, including menopause symptoms, low testosterone, pain with intercourse, ulcers, or fear about resuming intimacy. The episode closes with practical advice for everyday life. Food restrictions often loosen around 100 days, but patients should reintroduce foods slowly and carefully. Raw foods, alcohol, tobacco, and inhaled smoke should generally be avoided, especially during the first year. Dr. Kelkar also emphasizes mental health support, counseling, and honest conversations with the medical team. Survivorship is a bumpy road, but the goal is to help patients regain control and thrive.

Ricki and Tim got fully sucked into the Enhanced Games, aka the Olympics but everyone’s absolutely JUICED. Tim was obsessed with giant deadlifters throwing around half a tonne like it was a Woolies bag, while Ricki tried to process the fact that one of the biggest names in the comp came dead last… in a four-person race. They also discovered most of the “world record failures” were losing by literal fractions of a second, which somehow made the whole thing even more dramatic. By the end, Tim was ready to launch a Normal People Olympics where he and Ricki avoid swimming purely because washing hair afterwards is too annoying.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We kick  things off with KSL Movie Show host Val Cameron ranking the movies that stink right now! Then it’s the three things that caught our attention including, new research that show GLP-1’s could reduce cancer progression, the "Steroid Olympics" are actually happening this weekend in Vegas (SNL called it), and Jeff Bezos says half of Americans should pay zero income tax — but is he the right messenger?

From USC walk-on to cartel middleman to federal inmate rebuilding his life one project at a time, this episode with Owen Hanson feels less like a crime story and more like a masterclass in what happens when ambition runs without guardrails.Known as “The California Kid” and “The Cocaine Quarterback,” Owen shares how a relentless drive for success first showed up on the football field at USC before spiraling into steroid use, smuggling, and eventually laundering millions in drug money tied to the cartel. What started with crossing the border to move steroids from Mexico evolved into a world of massive debt, high stakes pressure, and organized crime that ultimately led to a federal RICO indictment and a 21-year prison sentence in 2015.But this conversation isn't just about the rise and fall. It's about what happened after the collapse.While incarcerated, Owen refused to let prison become dead time. Instead, he turned it into a strange kind of laboratory for reinvention, earning his master's degree, writing a book, creating his business, Ice Protein, and even starring in a docuseries produced with Mark Wahlberg. Owen's story is chaotic, unbelievable, and at times cinematic, but underneath all of it is a deeper message: your lowest point does not have to be wasted time.

Send us Fan MailPregnenolone, a neurosteroid derived from cholesterol, affects brain activity and shows promise for treating mood and substance abuse disorders.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Steroid Biosynthesis: Cholesterol converted to pregnenolone, the precursor for all steroid hormones including cortisol, aldosterone, and sex hormones.Corticosteroids: Synthetic versions like prednisone primarily target glucocorticoid receptors for anti-inflammatory uses but can impact mood and cognition.Pregnenolone Mechanisms: Positive allosteric modulator of NMDA receptors for cognition and negative allosteric modulator of CB1 cannabinoid receptors.Allopregnanolone: GABAergic derivative of pregnenolone; its IV form Brexanolone is FDA-approved for postpartum depression.Clinical Trials: Pregnenolone at 100-500 mg improved depressive symptoms in placebo-controlled studies of bipolar disorder patients.Cannabis Interaction: THC robustly induces brain pregnenolone production; supplementation may reduce cannabis and alcohol use.Corticosteroid Brain Impact: Prednisone use associated with smaller hippocampal volumes and memory deficits.ABOUT THE GUEST: Sherwood Brown, MD, PhD is Vice Chair for Clinical Research in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas.

Paul Sloane joins James Smith to dismantle the myth of bad luck and reveal why the most successful innovations in history happened entirely by accident. A Cambridge engineer, former IBM marketer, and bestselling author, Sloane argues that what most people write off as misfortune is actually a hidden opportunity, and the people who notice it are the ones who change industries.

A lot happened in the last three days and we are immensely grateful for the support we have received. We are alive. We are safe... But we are not ready to talk about what happened in court yet… so we're going to bring some joy back into the mix... Today we're sharing joy from the "Girl Talk" (Liz & Mandy's Version) archives usually only available on LUNASHARK Premium as a 'Soak Up The Sun' Member. In this mashup from GT 37 then GT 36 our dynamic duo revisits their March 8th deep dive into the Spivey immunity hearing — including a hilarious breakdown of the defense's star pharmacologist, a.k.a. "Dr. Bird Brain," whose courtroom debut was as baffling as his THC-and-songbird research. Then, from February 12th, Mandy and Liz take stock of the national news overload, confess to their reality TV escapes (Suddenly Amish, anyone?), and weigh in on the possibility of a new Murdaugh trial.
