A diverse healthcare workforce is critical to improving outcomes for our diverse nation. In order to achieve this, there needs to be both a pipeline and a pathway, says Dr. Valerie Montgomery Rice, President and CEO of Morehouse School of Medicine. “We need students to believe what's possible in first grade and then chart a path,” she says. Montgomery Rice says her own love and science and people led her to chart her career pathway that led her into academic medicine. “What if everybody was given that opportunity. What if everybody was told you can be whatever you want to be?” “Every one of my roles has been about how to develop people to bring their best self to work,” she says. Although health equity work can be polarized and be perceived as political, Montgomery Rice says Morehouse School of Medicine is committed to leading the creation and advancement of health equity — both through new solutions and through complementing existing ones.  The heart of her message on health equity: It's about “giving people what they need, when they need it, to achieve optimal level of health.” Montgomery Rice spoke with Movement Is Life's Dr. Carla Harwell for this episode, which was recorded at Movement Is Life's annual health equity summit.

We often think of trauma as a deeply personal experience, shaped by our childhood, relationships, and emotional wounds. But what if some of our deepest pain didn't start with us? What if trauma is embedded in the very systems we're born into - our medical institutions, cultural ideologies, and societal norms? In today's episode, we're joined by Dr. Tayla Shanaye, somatic therapist, scholar, and expert in birth trauma and structural oppression. Tayla joins Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful exploration of how ideologies like white supremacy, patriarchy, and ableism don't just shape policies, they live in our bodies, shaping how we birth, connect, and heal. Together, they discuss the medicalization of childbirth, the systemic invalidation of birthing bodies, and how trauma is passed down generationally through embodied experiences. This episode invites us to look at birth as more than a physical event, it's a moment of transformation, a portal, and for many, a site of trauma that is rarely acknowledged. Tayla also shares deeply personal stories of pregnancy, birth, and healing, highlighting the need for preparation, integration, and community-based support to create a culture where somatic safety and agency are the norm. You'll hear how nervous system awareness, collective ritual, and somatic abolitionism can radically change how we relate to our bodies and to each other. If you've ever felt broken by birth, silenced in your experience, or curious about how deep healing begins at the structural level, this episode is for you. Topics discussed in this episode: ● The medicalization of birth and its traumatic impact ● Why trauma is systemic—not just personal ● How ideologies like racism and patriarchy are embodied ● The role of the nervous system in healing generational trauma ● Somatic healing and reclaiming bodily agency ● Historical roots of obstetric violence and experimentation ● The missing rituals of birth preparation and integration ● How voice, safety, and co-regulation shape our healing ● The vision of community-led, embodied care ● Why embodiment is key to creating real culture Ready to reclaim your voice, your safety, and your power?

You may have heard of the critical brain hypothesis. It goes something like this: brain activity operates near a dynamical regime called criticality, poised at the sweet spot between too much order and too much chaos, and this is a good thing because systems at criticality are optimized for computing, they maximize information transfer, they maximize the time range over which they operate, and a handful of other good properties. John Beggs has been studying criticality in brains for over 20 years now. His 2003 paper with Deitmar Plenz is one of of the first if not the first to show networks of neurons operating near criticality, and it gets cited in almost every criticality paper I read. John runs the Beggs Lab at Indiana University Bloomington, and a few years ago he literally wrote the book on criticality, called The Cortex and the Critical Point: Understanding the Power of Emergence, which I highly recommend as an excellent introduction to the topic, and he continues to work on criticality these days. On this episode we discuss what criticality is, why and how brains might strive for it, the past and present of how to measure it and why there isn't a consensus on how to measure it, what it means that criticality appears in so many natural systems outside of brains yet we want to say it's a special property of brains. These days John spends plenty of effort defending the criticality hypothesis from critics, so we discuss that, and much more. Beggs Lab.

Seventeen years.One missing child.A thousand headlines.And still—no answers. But what if the real story isn't the one we were told? In this bold, fictionalized follow-up to The Guilty Files: Uncovered, host Dani peels back the layers of the Madeleine McCann case—not to rewrite the facts, but to rewire how we think about them. Using her background in law enforcement, psychology, and sociology, Dani walks listeners through nine dramatized acts that reimagine what might have happened that night in Praia da Luz. From a tourist who saw something but said nothing, to a grief-stricken forensic scientist who twisted the truth, to a final confession decades too late—this isn't just crime storytelling. This is speculative justice. Along the way, Dani confronts the institutional flaws that shaped the investigation, the class privilege that distorted public perception, and the uncomfortable questions we've all been too afraid to ask. Plus, he shares a personal story from his time as a beat officer in Atlanta—a haunting parallel that brings this fictional journey crashing into reality. 

In this encore episode, we detail the pathophysiology of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (H₂-SIBO), and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO (H₂S-SIBO), discussing their mechanistic interactions and overlap. We discuss methanogenic archaea, as well hydrogen sulfide- and hydrogen-producing microbes and their contributions to altered gastrointestinal motility, epithelial barrier function, and neuromuscular signaling. We detail host endogenous defense mechanisms, including gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzymatic activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more.Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen-dominant SIBO  - Discussion of overlap  2. Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO)- Characterized by an overabundance of methane-producing archaea  - Methane and intestinal transit- Bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation  - Associated with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C)   3. Overlap Between IMO and SIBO Subtypes- Hydrogen as a substrate for methane and/or hydrogen sulfide production- Shared potential root causes 4. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Protective Mechanisms- The small intestine remains relatively free of bacteria due to protective mechanisms  - Gastric acid secretion - Pancreatic enzymes and bile - Intestinal motility- Structural abnormalities 5. Hydrogen-Dominant SIBO - Increased hydrogen and intestinal transit- Potential symptoms, diarrhea, postprandial bloating  - Different forms of SIBO can coexist  6. Hydrogen Sulfide-Dominant SIBO - H₂S and intestinal motility- H₂S and intestinal epithelial integrity- Symptoms, associations with IBS diarrhea    7. Host Defense Mechanisms Regulating Microbial Balance- Gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzyme activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more 8. Gastric Acid and Its Role in Microbial Regulation- Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor  - Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, conversion into pepsin in acidic conditions  - Gastric acid, digestion and antimicrobial defense   9. Hypochlorhydria - Low gastric acid impairs microbial defense- Reduced acidity disrupts digestion and downstream pancreatic enzyme and bile release   10. Pancreatic Enzymes and Their Role in Microbial Regulation- Pancreatic enzymes, digestion, antimicrobial activity - Enzymes modify chyme to limit fermentable substrates that fuel microbial proliferation   11. Intestinal Motility - Coordinated contractions propel food, microbes, and waste through the GI tract  - The enteric nervous system (ENS) and gut motility- The myenteric plexus controls peristalsis, while the submucosal plexus regulates secretion and absorption   12. Conclusion- Intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO - Overlap in symptoms and microbial interactions  - Host defense mechanisms, including gastric acid, pancreatic enzymes, and motility  - Intestinal motility and ENS function in microbial homeostasis  - Hydrogen sulfide as a gasotransmitterGet Chloe's Book Today!

Send us a textIt would be a sin not to open the show discussing the Wolves and their playoff run so far and what their future match ups could look like. The first weekend of local racing kicked off, along with the WISSOTA Structural Building Late Model series, which is turning out to be a Minnesota series with the lack of drivers from surrounding areas. The guys give their thoughts on changes that need to be made to increase car counts for the series, including restricting the class for competing tracks when the series runs.  Debatable calls at Donnyland for the first night of the Late Model series are hashed over, with the question raised of whether anyone would make a call against him on his own playground. We round out this episode looking ahead to this weekend's events, or lack therof, given the grim Minnesota weather forecast.

Participating in religious activities appears to benefit cardiovascular health among Black Americans. It's something we explored in an episode on this podcast a few years back. Health systems, professional societies and researchers are increasingly recognizing that “faith-based organizations are trusted institutions within underserved communities and that people not only seek spiritual refuge and salvation in these places of worship, but they are also wonderful, trusted vessels to  distribute reliable health information,” says Dr. LaPrincess Brewer, a faculty member in the division of  Preventive Cardiology, department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Mayo Clinic. “Participating in religious activities from church services to private prayer, as well as holding deep spiritual beliefs are  linked to better cardiovascular health among Black Americans," according to researchers of a 2022 study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association. The researchers go on to suggest that recognition by health professionals and researchers of the centrality and influence of religiosity and spirituality in the lives of African American adults may serve as a means to address cardiovascular health disparities. In an episode that was first published in 2023, Movement Is Life's Dr. Mary O'Connor spoke with Dr. Brewer, whose primary research focus is reducing cardiovascular disease health disparities in racial and ethnic minority populations  and in underserved communities, and Clarence Jones, a community engagement specialist and former director of community engagement at a federally qualified health center in Minneapolis who has extensive experience in  collaborating with community and faith-based partners in promoting community wellness and access to health services.  Never miss an episode – be sure to subscribe to The Health Disparities podcast from Movement Is Life on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.  

USD overweight exposure is now normalizing Even as equities have rallied substantially from April lows, recovery in the dollar index, or DXY, has underwhelmed and the currency sits near the lowest level it's been in three years. Alex Cohen believes that while there are cyclical reasons for the dollar weakness, there's also been a bigger structural rethink on the currency by investors from the push toward de-globalization and from questions around US exceptionalism. Alex sees German fiscal reforms as a game changer, another dollar negative. But our own survey shows very negative sentiment for the dollar, which is relevant to the short term. Mark Cabana contributes with a discussion of rates given the important interplay between the Treasuries and currencies. Mark believes that there has been a shift away from US Treasuries by global investors, although a lot of this recent shift is a function of investors reducing their overweight position rather than getting outright negative. Mark also discusses debt sustainability concerns and how budget negotiations may impact bonds going forward.

Georgina Energy PLC (LSE:GEX) CEO Anthony Hamilton talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a significant resource upgrade at the Mt Winter prospect, following extensive reprocessing and interpretation of seismic data. Hamilton said the new data revealed the Heavitree formation could be intersected at a shallower depth than previously expected, reducing the target depth from 3,200m to 2,900m. He explained that the reprocessed seismic improved resolution and led to a 15% increase in the net attributable 2U helium and hydrogen resources, along with a 3% uplift in hydrocarbons. "The new resource 2U or P50 for helium is 127 at 75%. If we go to 100% it'll be 169," Hamilton stated, adding that the full acquisition of the oil company will increase Georgina Energy's legal ownership from 75% to 100%. He also highlighted the identification of a new 60km² structural closure in the permit area, previously undetected by the company or its competent person. This area shows promise for further exploration, especially given historical concentrations of helium and hydrogen in the region. Hamilton confirmed that reentry planning and engineering work are underway, alongside continued negotiations for exploration permits under the Aboriginal Land Rights Access Agreement (ALRA). A revamped, more interactive and investor-friendly website has also just gone live. He also flagged the company's new website, where investors can find additional information: https://www.georginaenergy.com Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more company updates and exclusive interviews.

In today's episode, we explore some big questions about community health — and how hospitals and health care workers can help promote equitable health outcomes in their communities. The Community Health Needs Assessment, or CHNA, is a  powerful tool for promoting health equity, says Leslie Marshburn, Vice President of Strategy & Population Health at Grady Health System. “We want to be hearing directly from the individuals that we serve — what they believe their community health needs are,” Marshburn says. The information is coupled with public data, “ideally at the most granular level, like the census track or zip code. And so those national data sets can help inform what the needs are, and then layering that with the community voice through your primary data collection and synthesizing all of that helps you identify your priorities.” When it comes to improving health outcomes in communities, it's also critical that health care providers understand health disparities, says Dr. Maura George, an associate professor in the Department of Medicine and an internist at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, where she also serves as Medical Director of Ethics.  “I think clinicians who don't know how to recognize disparities are going to perpetuate them, and we can all do that unintentionally,” George says. “I think knowing our own internalized bias, implicit bias is important, because you have to realize how that can interact in the patient care space.” Marshburn and George joined Movement Is Life's summit as workshop panelists, and spoke with steering committee member Dr. Zachary Lum for this podcast episode.

TRAFFIC OF A LIE Oppression, deceit, love and greed.  Adeline is devastated at the news that her beloved mother has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer in its advanced stages. Discombobulated at her mother's refusal to receive any form of treatment, no matter how much her and her sister Penelope plead her to re-consider, the two girls are shattered when their mother takes her final breath. But this is just the beginning of Adeline's turmoil. The reading of the will sets in motion a thickly woven web of deceit and lies that will rock Adeline to her very core, forcing her to question the essence of her existence and the foundations of the basis of all that she has known throughout her life. Traversing different countries, spanning across two generations, patriarchal societal beliefs and the complexities of the human character, love may not always conquer, but ultimately the truth will.   ABOUT THE AUTHOR Angela Nagel lives in the picturesque Barossa Valley located in South Australia with her husband James and their cheeky and talkative Sulphur Crested Cockatoo Basil. Three adult children and their partners complete their family. Angela has enjoyed a fulfilling career spanning over four decades helping operate their family owned bakery business. She enjoys travelling, with a particular interest in experiencing different cultures and languages. An avid reader for as long as she can remember, Angela has always held an interest in writing. Traffic of a Lie is her debut novel. Learn more about Angela and her work at https://angelanagelauthor.com/   TOPICS OF CONVERSATION Overview and Inspiration Behind Traffic of a Lie What the story is about, the inspiration behind it, and how the idea evolved into a novel. Character Development and Emotional Themes Deep dive into Adeline and Yasmina's emotional journeys, the complexity of mother-daughter relationships, betrayal, grief, identity crisis, resilience, and how characters navigate societal pressures. Generational Oppression, Patriarchal Systems, and Gender Inequality How systemic control, traditions, and silence impact women across generations; drawing parallels between past and present struggles for women's autonomy and voice. Structural and Storytelling Choices Use of dual timelines, balancing emotional devastation with hope, the symbolism behind the book's title, and decisions around what to reveal versus what to leave uncertain. Reader Reactions and Future Projects How readers have responded to the story, the kinds of conversations it sparks about family, silence, and healing, and Angela Nagel's plans to write a psychological thriller as her next book.

Michael Dell and Shaquille O'Neal planned their work and worked their plans.Dell understood the formulas, and followed the rules, of efficiency.O'Neal understood the formulas and followed the rules of basketball.Each of them faithfully followed a Structural plan.Michael Dell invented nothing, improvised nothing, and innovated only once. But that single innovation made him a billionaire. Dell's innovation was to bring tested, reliable, proven methods of cost-cutting to the manufacturing and distribution of computers. When all his competitors were selling through retailers, Dell sold direct to consumer. This made his costs lower and his profits higher.Michael Dell's strengths are discipline, professionalism, and Structural thinking.Likewise, Shaq says, “I didn't invent basketball, but I am really good at executing the plays.” Discipline, professionalism, and Structural thinking made Shaq an extraordinary basketball player. These same characteristics also made him an amazing operator of fast-food franchises.“The most Shaq ever made playing in the NBA was $29.5 million per year. Now, it's estimated that the big man is bringing in roughly $60 million per year, much of which is coming from his portfolio of fast-food businesses around the U.S.”– 24/7wallst.comShaq didn't invent car washes or Five Guys Burgers and Fries, but he owns more than 150 of each.Michael Dell and Shaquille O'Neal are masters of Structural planning and thinking.Structural thinking relies on proven elements and best practices. “Gather the best pieces and processes and connect them together like LEGO blocks. What could possibly go wrong?”Structural planning and thinking:Invent, Improvise, Innovate?“NO, because those things are untested. We want to avoid mistakes.”Reliable, Tested, Proven?“YES!”Steve Jobs and Michael Jordon are masters of Gestalt planning and thinking.Gestalt planning and thinking:Invent, Improvise, Innovate?“YES!“Reliable, Tested, Proven?“NO, because those things are predictable. We want to be different.“The fundamental idea of Gestalt thinking is that the behavior of the whole is not determined by its individual elements; but rather that the behavior of the individual elements are determined by the intrinsic nature of the whole.It is the goal of Gestalt thinking to determine the nature of the whole, the finished product.Gestalt thinkers who can fund their experiments and survive their mistakes often become paradigm shifters and world-changers.Steve Jobs got off to a slow start because he refused to use MS-DOS, the operating system that everyone else was using. But he was sensitive to the needs and hungers of the marketplace. When Steve Jobs had a crystal-clear vision of the things that people would purchase if those things existed, he brought those things into existence.Structural thinkers rely on planning and execution. Gestalt thinkers rely on poise and flexibility, often deciding on small details at the last split-second. Ask a Gestalt thinker why they do this and most of them will tell you, “I decide at the last minute because that is when I have the most information.”The reason you never knew what Michael Jordan was going to do is because Michael Jordan had not yet decided. Michael's internal vision was simple and clear: “Put the basketball through the hoop.” With the clarity of that crystal vision shining brightly in his mind, Michael could figure out everything else along the way.Gestalt thinkers like Steve Jobs and Michael

In yesterday's show, the neuroscientist Leor Zmigrod explained how radical ideology is infecting our brains. Today, Unite America executive director Nick Troiano explains how the American democratic system is empowering radicals in both parties. In The Primary Solution, Troiano argues that party primaries give disproportionate influence to political extremes, with 90% of elections being decided in primaries where few people participate. Troiano advocates for open primaries that allow all voters to participate regardless of party affiliation, citing Alaska's reform which combine open primaries with ranked-choice voting as a model solution. FIVE TAKEAWAYS* The primary election system in America gives disproportionate influence to political fringes, as 90% of elections are effectively decided in primaries where few people participate.* In 16 states, independent voters (about 16 million Americans) are locked out of taxpayer-funded primaries, meaning they cannot participate in elections that often determine the final outcome.* Five states (Nebraska, Louisiana, California, Washington, and Alaska) have already abolished party primaries for state or federal elections, implementing various alternative systems.* Troiano advocates for the Alaska model, which combines an open all-candidate primary with instant runoff elections, allowing all voters to participate regardless of party affiliation.* Structural reform at the state level is more achievable than national reform, as the Constitution allows states to set the "time, place, and manner" of their elections without requiring constitutional amendments.Nick Troiano is the founding executive director of Unite America, a philanthropic venture fund that invests in nonpartisan election reform to foster a more representative and functional government. Since 2019, Unite America has invested over $50 million to help win three major statewide ballot initiatives and over a dozen state legislative and municipal policy victories. In 2014, Troiano ran for the US House of Representatives in Pennsylvania's 10th District and was both the youngest candidate of the cycle and the most competitive independent Congressional candidate nationally in over two decades. Nick earned both his BA and MA in American government from Georgetown University and, as an undergraduate, cofounded an endowed Social Innovation and Public Service Fund. He regularly provides commentary to a range of media outlets on topics of democracy and politics, and he has been featured in three documentaries: Follow the Leader, Broken Eggs, and Unrepresented. He lives in Denver, Colorado.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting the daily KEEN ON show, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy interview series. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE.

In today's episode, I'm diving into gut health, but—as always—I'm doing it in my own unconventional way. Gut issues are often the gateway for many women into the wellness world. But once you're in, it can become this never-ending game of "symptom whack-a-mole." One issue pops up, you chase it with a protocol, and then another emerges. What we're missing is a foundational practice and a deep understanding of gut physiology and how it's intricately tied to our nervous system. Without addressing those basics, you're often just spinning your wheels.When I work with women experiencing gut issues, I often start by focusing on the basics, and one of the most commonly overlooked, yet essential, aspects of gut health is proper hydration. It seems simple, but many people are chronically dehydrated or drinking water inconsistently. Whether it's chugging water late in the day or relying on dry foods that don't offer hydration, these habits can seriously impair digestion. Ultimately, my approach is about respecting the body's innate wisdom and starting with the simplest, most fundamental tools first. Everything else builds from there. We go over all of this and so much more in this episode. Tune in today and get your gut back on the right track! In this episode:[00:37] Welcome back to The Fully Nourished Podcast![02:14] We're diving into gut health today. [05:08] Understanding how the gut functions and how it relates to the nervous system is critical for understanding how to support proper gut function.[10:33] What are some of the basics of gut physiology?[13:47] Hydration is key to supporting our gut physiology. [18:25] Structural impediments play a role in your gut health.[20:48] The root of gut feelings.[23:02] Are you pooping?[26:52] How can you support digestive juices? [29:39] What is the benefit of taking a supplement break? [32:41] Thanks for joining me on The Fully Nourished Podcast! Links and Resources:Philosophia Society:https://www.jessicaashwellness.com/philosophia-societyThe two mini-courses I referenced were "Foundations of Gut Health" and "Seeding and Weeding"Submit Questions Here: https://airtable.com/appoicByQy3UFoSXs/shrXwD7wQFJQr68NnSign Up for Sunday Tea Here: https://jessica-ash-wellness.ck.page/04f86a550fGet more info on Philosophia Society Here: https://www.jessicaashwellness.com/philosophia-societyDiscount Codes from Our Sponsors:Subluna:https://shopsubluna.com?sca_ref=6575731.SiVwQ6X9YX*Code JESSICAASH for 10% offIG: @shopsubluna*This is an affiliate link.

Across the globe and in the U.S., environmental crises loom large and threaten our most vulnerable populations.  “There's a lot of dying that's happening now, and it's primarily among poor, Black and Brown people,” says Dr. Cherly Holder, who's on a personal mission to inspire clinicians to act on climate change.  Holder explains that a person's health and well-being is directly impacted by the environment they're surrounded by. “In celebrating and recognizing the environment, we recognize that this is how we define humanity, and how we create the environment for us to grow and thrive,” she says. In honor of Earth Day, which is coming up this month, we're dipping into our archives to bring you a conversation with Dr. Cheryl Holder. She's now retired, but at the time this conversation was recorded and produced for the Health Disparities podcast in 2021, Dr. Holder was serving as the Interim Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity and Community Initiatives, and associate professor at the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, Florida International University.  This episode was originally published in 2021 with host Elise Tolbert.

In today's episode, we detail the enteric nervous system and regulation of gastrointestinal motility. We discuss factors including dysautonomia, stress, microbial overgrowth, and more, with regards to potential effects upon gastrointestinal motility. We further detail symptoms of altered GI motility. Topics:1. Introduction to Gastrointestinal Motility- Orchestrated contraction of smooth muscles that propel contents along the digestive tract.  - Roles in mixing, absorption, and preventing bacterial overgrowth.- Disruptions in motility. 2. The Enteric Nervous System (ENS) and Its Role- Myenteric and submucosal plexus.- Coordinating contractions and relaxations for effective motility. - Mucosa includes epithelium, lamina propria, and muscle.  - Submucosa houses the submucosal plexus.  - Muscularis externa. - Inner circular and outer longitudinal muscle layers with the myenteric plexus in between.   3. The Role of Interstitial Cells of Cajal (ICCs)- Specialized pacemaker cells in muscular layers  - Generate slow-wave electrical activity to synchronize smooth muscle contractions  - Critical for peristalsis.- Work with neural inputs to fine-tune gut motility   4. Dysautonomia and Its Impact on Gut Motility- Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS)  - Motility impacts- Microbial overgrowth, SIBO 5. Gastrointestinal Dysmotility- Neurological dysregulation - Structural abnormalities and smooth muscle dysfunction  - Hormonal imbalances - Microbial overgrowth - Autoimmunity  6. The HPA Axis- Hypothalamus, pituitary gland, adrenal glands  - Central to the stress response and interlinked with gut function  - The amygdala and PVN of the hypothalamus  - CRH stimulates ACTH, leading to cortisol release from adrenal glands   7. Cortisol and Gut Barrier Function- Cortisol is a glucocorticoid that modulates immune function and gut physiology  - Chronic cortisol exposure can impair tight junction (TJ) integrity  - Increases paracellular permeability and allows passage of antigens and endotoxins   8.Stress-Induced Changes in Gut Motility- Slow gastric motility - Increased colonic motility  9.

What motivates Joel Bervell, a.k.a. the Medical Mythbuster, to create social media content addressing racial disparities, the hidden history of medicine, and biases in healthcare?  He's seen how it can literally save lives. A year after Bervell posted a video about disparities in pulse oximeters for Black patients, a man reached out to share that during the pandemic, he had reported to the hospital with shortness of breath, a fever and COVID symptoms. The pulse oximeter reported 100% oxygen saturation, so he was told to go home. “But he felt horrible, and he had recently seen my video” showing pulse oximeters can report falsely high oxygen readings in Black patients, Bevell says. “And so he told the doctors.. I want to stay here at the hospital. Is that okay?” The doctors let him stay, and the man ended up crashing the night, ending up in the ICU with intubation. He's grateful he survived, and later reached out to Bervell to say, “because of your video, I felt confident being able to say, ‘I don't know if this is accurate for me, I don't feel well. I want to stay.'” Bervell says this is why he creates videos like these, to help people understand medical issues “so they can feel confident to let their needs be known” to health care providers.

Weight bias is pervasive and is one of the most common forms of bias in the U.S.  When it comes to obesity medicine, patients can be their worst critics, says Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford, an obesity medicine physician scientist, educator, and policy maker at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. “They're their worst critics because what they've heard from their doctors, their family members, their peers is that they have failed,” Dr. Stanford says. “My goal is to help them realize that they're not, indeed, a failure. There are options. We can treat  this disease. We do have treatments available.” Dr. Stanford is a national and international sought-after expert in obesity medicine who bridges the intersection of medicine, public health, policy, and disparities. She joins the Health Disparities podcast to discuss weight bias, how that bias causes stress, and the role of stress in obesity.
