Story at-a-glance Low vitamin C levels are strongly linked to increased cardiovascular disease risk in people with Type 2 diabetes People who consume fewer than one serving of fruit or vegetables daily had significantly lower vitamin C levels than those eating two or more servings daily Vitamin C protects arteries by neutralizing free radicals, preserving nitric oxide for vessel flexibility and supporting collagen synthesis for arterial strength Studies show vitamin C supplementation of 1,000 mg daily reduces triglycerides, improves blood flow and decreases inflammation markers in people with metabolic disorders Whole fruits rich in vitamin C, like guava, oranges and amla (Indian gooseberry), provide heart protection by optimizing vessel function and preventing dangerous blood clots
The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself: "Why am I so tired, even after a full night's sleep?" "Am I really present for my kids, or just physically there?" "Could my low energy be impacting my marriage and family life?" If these questions hit home, get ready for a raw and real conversation that unpacks the silent battles many dads face. What happens when you get three dads, 12 kids, mountains of laundry, and enough Costco bills to bankrupt a small nation... all together on one podcast? Chaos? Yep. Laughter? Absolutely. But beneath the wild potty-training stories and "Dad, look at my squat!" moments, today's conversation hits something way deeper with Matt Salazar, father of five boys, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Gent Health, and his partner, Sonny Howard, a dad of three. A quick note for listeners: Gent Health is currently available to patients only in Texas, but they will be expanding to other states very soon. Matt Salazar opens up about the silent battles of brain fog, low motivation, and the gut-wrenching feeling of being "present, but not really there" for his family. Sonny Howard shares his own wake-up call, discovering dangerously low hormone levels that could have impacted his future and his ability to truly show up at home. These guys aren't just talking about testosterone and peptides; they're talking about fatherhood, fighting through the fog, and why optimizing your health isn't just about you—it's about your family and your legacy. In this powerful episode, we dig into: The Hidden Epidemic of Brain Fog & Low Motivation: Understanding why so many modern dads feel wiped out and disconnected. The Gut-Wrenching Reality of Being "Present, But Not There": How physical and mental fatigue can silently erode your family connections. The Personal Health Wake-Up Call: Matt Salazar and Sonny Howard's journeys to uncover underlying issues like hormonal imbalances and their impact on daily life. Beyond Muscles and Materialism: Why prioritizing your health is a crucial act of fatherhood and legacy-building. Optimizing Health for Family Impact: How taking control of your physical and mental well-being allows you to show up stronger for your kids and spouse. Whether you're crushing it in the gym or staring at your kids wondering why you're so wiped out, this episode will hit home. Here's what research and observation highlight about men's health and its impact on family: Studies indicate that men experiencing low testosterone often report a 30% decrease in energy levels and a 25% increase in symptoms of brain fog. Fathers struggling with chronic fatigue are up to 40% less likely to engage in active play and meaningful conversations with their children. Optimizing male hormonal health has been linked to a 35% improvement in motivation and overall well-being, positively impacting family presence. www.thedadedge.com/529 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.gent.health www.instagram.com/genthealth
Story at-a-glance Studies show that mixtures of food additives in ultraprocessed foods increase Type 2 diabetes risk, even for those following otherwise healthy diets Two additive mixtures pose higher diabetes risk — one found in sweetened beverages and another in processed foods like dairy desserts and canned broths Food additives damage gut microbiome, disrupt cellular function, and cause DNA damage when combined, even at low doses that match typical consumption patterns Current safety assessments by health agencies are incomplete as they test individual additives rather than the combinations consumed in everyday diets Healthy recommendations include eliminating ultraprocessed foods, choosing whole or biodynamic foods, educating family about real food, and learning to identify harmful additives

A Simple Technique to Make Meetings More Enjoyable - Mike CohnEvery time I went to the dentist as a little kid, my dentist gave me a small toy after my treatment.And back then my parents' house was near Disneyland. From our backyard we'd see the nightly fireworks. Disneyland always saved the most spectacular display for the finale.My dentist and Disneyland were making use of what later became known as the peak-end rule. This rule says that we judge and recall experiences based on how we felt at the peak and at the end.My dentist was giving me a more favorable impression by giving me the toy at the end. If he'd given me a toy at the start, it would not have had the same impact.Disney was going for the double-whammy of placing the peak experience at the end.Studies conducted by Daniel Kahneman (author of Thinking Fast and Slow) and others have shown that we consider unpleasant experiences better if they end on an up note. The end doesn't have to be great; it just has to be better than what preceded it.Meetings are an unpleasant experience for many of us. But we can improve how team members feel about meetings by changing how we end them.I plan to try this next week. Our weekly meeting begins with anyone sharing good news, whether professional or personal. This week a coworker is celebrating a professional achievement; next week is another's last before taking maternity leave.This simple sharing of good news is the highlight of the meeting for me. All the discussion about the work we each plan to undertake for the week is vital, but I enjoy hearing good news from coworkers.Back in the day, we put this at the start of each week's agenda because we reasoned it would be nice to start on a positive note. Do you predict we'll be better served by sharing good news at the end?Improving the end of a meeting won't change the outcome of the meeting or the discussions within the meeting. It should, however, improve how people feel about the meeting.Making meetings more enjoyable (or at least less unpleasant) will help a team succeed with agileHow to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
In this episode, Emily & Han discuss how to make recovery work whilst studying. The key takeaways from this episode are:Position recovery at no.1 of your to-do list Remember that your health is at foundation of everything elseDo not continuously adopt the ‘I just need to get through this' delay tacticSee this as an opportunity to head towards Ed unapproved (e.g., messiness, convenience, rush)Consistently remind yourself of where you want to be long term and what your studying is ultimately all for.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: How do we take care of kids in severe pain? There are many non-pharmacologic options for pain (i.e. ice, elevation) as well as more conventional medication options (i.e. acetaminophen, NSAIDS) but in severe pain stronger medications might be indicated. These stronger medications include options such as IV morphine, a subdissociative dose of ketamine, as well as intranasal fentanyl. Intranasal fentanyl has many advantages: Studies have shown it might be more effective early on in controlling pain, as in the first 15-20 minutes after administration, and then becomes equivalent to other pain control options Total adverse effects were also lower with IN fentanyl, including low rates of nausea and vomiting To administer, use the IV formulation with an atomizer and spray into the nose; therefore, you do not need an IV line Dose is 1-2 micrograms per kilogram, can be redosed once at 10 minutes. Don't forget about gabapentinoids for neuropathic pain, muscle relaxants for muscle spasms, and nerve blocks when appropriate.

Let me know your thoughts on the show and what topic you would like me to discuss next.Many men struggle with outdated expectations of masculinity, creating disconnection from purpose, relationships, and self while carrying the weight of social norms that no longer serve them. Jason Lange joins us to explore how embracing men's work, uncovering shadow elements, and building supportive relationships can help men reclaim their vitality and purpose.• Shadow work involves making the unconscious conscious, bringing to awareness what might be running your life without your knowledge• The "man box" confines men to behaviors like never showing emotion, never asking for help, and always appearing tough• Studies show men who strongly identify with traditional masculine values are more likely to commit suicide• Loneliness and isolation are as harmful to health as smoking a pack and a half of cigarettes daily• The "fierce, loving masculine heart" offers a third path beyond macho jerk and passive nice guy• Integration of masculine and feminine energies creates wholeness regardless of gender• Community builds resilience—men need other men to model healthy masculinity• Many men push themselves with strategies and goals while ignoring their dysregulated nervous systems• Connection and rest often naturally lead to renewed motivation and energyJoin a men's group or find ways to build deeper connections with other men.

Austin has lived overseas in various countries for almost 10 years of his life. He's studied more than 12 languages, in depth, and taught English as a second language for more than 20 years, in several different contexts. Austin is often asked what it takes to learn a new language and what is the best approach. Listen today to hear the answers and learn some surprising tips and available resources for anyone at any age that will enhance your language journey. Learning a new language offers numerous benefits, from personal growth and enhanced communication to career advancement and improved cognitive function. It can also broaden one's cultural understanding and make travel experiences more enriching. Here's a more detailed look at the reasons to learn a new language:1. Enhanced Communication and Social Connections:Language is fundamental to communication, and learning a new language allows you to connect with a wider range of people, both locally and globally. It opens doors to forming deeper connections and building relationships with individuals who speak that language. 2. Career Opportunities and Salary: In today's globalized world, language skills are highly sought after in various industries. Being fluent in a second language can increase your job prospects and potentially lead to higher salaries. For example, many jobs in government, business, and international organizations require language proficiency. 3. Cognitive Benefits: Learning a new language can improve cognitive abilities, such as memory, attention span, and multitasking.Studies have shown that bilingual individuals may be better at switching between tasks and managing multiple projects. 4. Cultural Understanding and Enrichment:Learning a language provides insights into the culture, traditions, and perspectives of the language's speakers. It can enhance your appreciation for diverse cultures and broaden your worldview. 5. Travel and Exploration: Being able to communicate in a foreign language can make travel experiences more rewarding and immersive.You can connect with locals, navigate unfamiliar situations with greater ease, and truly experience the culture of a place. 6. Personal Growth and Confidence: Learning a new language can be a challenging but rewarding journey that boosts your confidence and sense of accomplishment.It can also expand your perspective and make you more open to new experiences. 7. Mental Health Benefits: Learning a new language can stimulate the brain and help maintain cognitive function, potentially delaying the onset of age-related mental decline. It can also be a source of mental stimulation and enjoyment. People who speak more than one language automatically gain the capacity to connect with more people. Creating social relationships leads to building closer business and community connections with each other.This has been a presentation of the BEARANOOGA PRODUCTIONS group!Episode Resources:www.helloscheiwes.com"How to Actually Learn a Language"- The Mindset, Methods, and Motivations to Succeed at Language Learning - eBook: $6.50Included: Personal Language Learning Success Plan worksheet.mynewnorm.buzzsprout.com/ / YouTube.com/@mynewnorm

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Randall Bock – A 2022 study linked it to asthma. “If it's not vaccines, prove it,” I urged. Regression — children losing speech or skills after a fever or shot — demands scrutiny. Studies report 22% of autistic kids regress around 21 months; Swedish data ties 40% of febrile seizures to autism. Could inflammation, akin to schizophrenia's late onset, be a trigger?
Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses the significant impact of obesity on health, particularly in Australia where heart disease is prevalent. He emphasizes the concerning rise of ultra-processed foods in diets, which are linked to increased obesity rates due to their addictive nature and high calorie density. Dr. Bishop highlights that traditional weight loss studies often fail in the long term, as most dieters regain lost weight, primarily due to metabolic adaptations. He advocates for a focus on high-protein whole foods, resistance training, and lifestyle consistency to achieve sustainable metabolic health changes.

One small town, two "thousand-year floods" in the span of two years: how does a community become resilient in the face of the ever-increasing risks of climate change?Small towns across America and around the world face mounting challenges with flood risk, a result of not only climate change but also poorly adapted landscapes, sprawl, overdevelopment and poor planning. After the Floods: The Search for Resilience in Ellicott City (Oxford UP, 2024) is about Ellicott City, a small town in central Maryland that experienced two devastating flash floods just 22 months apart. Despite the town's many advantages—wealth, access to expertise, a mobilized community, and a stout identity steeped in 250 years of history—Ellicott City found itself mired in a deeply divisive argument over what to do in the aftermath. As a resident, Ken Conca bore firsthand witness to the conflict that took root when the flood waters receded.While this book is about one residential suburb, the dilemmas that it faces over how to adapt to climate change are coming soon to a small town near you. On one level a story about re-engineering a landscape, After the Floods ultimately grapples with uncertainty over local history, justice, democracy, and identity. What can we know about future risks to our communities? What is the meaning of place and history when preservation goals come into conflict with flood protection? What should we protect? Who gets to speak for the community? In Ellicott City's search for answers, we can find important lessons for other small communities that must begin preparing for future climate risks. This interview was conducted by Dr. Hannah Pool whose research focuses on human mobilities. She is a senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Studies of Societies.

This episode of Living Myth begins with recent scientific reports which seek to explain why humans may be inclined to put their trust in leaders who claim to be strong and omniscient and will submit to those who are manipulative and deceitful. Studies in anthropology and psychology reveal age-old biases that lead people to believe what others believe in order to “fit in” and idealize and imitate those who appear to be highly successful. These “hardwired” biases become activated during times of radical change and become amplified when collective levels of uncertainty and fear increase. The modern use of vast digital networks that can unleash floods of disinformation and falsehoods provokes the age-old fears and biases that can manipulate entire societies. The use of mass methods of communication are just the latest tactics in the long history of humanity's struggles over truth and trust and the willful misuse of power in ways that benefit the few at the expense of the overall community. Michael Meade invokes the old idea that timeless problems can only be solved with timeless solutions. In order to avoid being overwhelmed by uncertainty and confusion we must look, not to the contemporary mainstream of life, but to the timeless streams of myth and imagination. As the fabric of life becomes frayed and time seems to be running out, timeless things that can alter the course of history try to slip back into human awareness. Despite our fears and misleading biases, we are also the inheritors of the capacity of the human soul to imagine a more unified world and find ways to reconnect to life's innate capacity to transform and renew from within, precisely when all seems about to be lost.

In this Q&A episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker answers questions submitted by EBB Pro Members—each exploring a different facet of evidence-based maternity care. First, she explores the latest evidence on early induction for gestational hypertension, including findings from the WILL trial and other recent studies. What are the real risks and benefits of inducing labor at 37 or 38 weeks for gestational hypertension? And how should families weigh these decisions with their providers? Next, Dr. Dekker shares new insights into the effectiveness of acupuncture and acupressure for labor pain, anxiety, and Cesarean recovery. From systematic reviews to randomized trials, the data is growing! Finally, she looks into the evidence on interpregnancy intervals. What does the research say about the risks associated with short or long gaps between pregnancies? And how might this information apply to those who are pregnant again after a five-year or more break?

Understanding Unicornuate Uterus: What It Is, Prevalence, Risks, and a Positive Outlook A unicornuate uterus is a rare congenital condition where the uterus develops with only one half, or "horn," instead of the typical two-horned shape of a normal uterus. This happens during fetal development when one of the Müllerian ducts, which form the uterus, fails to develop fully. As a result, the uterus is smaller, has only one functioning fallopian tube, and may or may not have a rudimentary horn (a small, underdeveloped second horn). This condition falls under the category of Müllerian duct anomalies, which affect the female reproductive tract. For those diagnosed, understanding the condition, its implications, and the potential for a healthy pregnancy can provide reassurance and hope. What Is a Unicornuate Uterus? The uterus typically forms as a pear-shaped organ with two symmetrical halves that fuse during fetal development. In a unicornuate uterus, only one half develops fully, creating a smaller-than-average uterine cavity. This anomaly can occur with or without a rudimentary horn, which may or may not be connected to the main uterine cavity. If a rudimentary horn is present, it might cause complications like pain if it accumulates menstrual blood, as it often lacks a connection to the cervix or vagina. The condition is often diagnosed during routine imaging, such as an ultrasound, MRI, or hysterosalpingogram (HSG), typically when a woman seeks medical advice for fertility issues, pelvic pain, or irregular menstruation. In some cases, it's discovered incidentally during pregnancy or unrelated medical evaluations. How Prevalent Is It? Unicornuate uterus is one of the rarest Müllerian duct anomalies, occurring in approximately 0.1% to 0.4% of women in the general population. Among women with Müllerian anomalies, it accounts for about 2% to 13% of cases. The condition is congenital, meaning it's present at birth, but it often goes undiagnosed until adulthood because many women experience no symptoms. Its rarity can make it feel isolating for those diagnosed, but awareness and medical advancements have made it easier to manage and understand. Risks Associated with Unicornuate Uterus While many women with a unicornuate uterus lead healthy lives, the condition can pose challenges, particularly related to fertility and pregnancy. The smaller uterine cavity and reduced endometrial surface area can increase the risk of certain complications, though these are not inevitable. Below are some potential risks: Fertility Challenges: The smaller uterus and single fallopian tube may slightly reduce the chances of conception, especially if the rudimentary horn or other structural issues interfere with ovulation or implantation. However, many women with a unicornuate uterus conceive naturally without intervention. Miscarriage: The limited space in the uterine cavity can increase the risk of miscarriage, particularly in the first trimester. Studies suggest miscarriage rates may be higher (around 20-30%) compared to women with a typical uterus, though exact figures vary. Preterm Birth: The smaller uterus may not accommodate a growing fetus as easily, potentially leading to preterm labor or delivery before 37 weeks. Research indicates preterm birth rates in women with a unicornuate uterus range from 10-20%. Fetal Growth Restriction: The restricted uterine space can sometimes limit fetal growth, leading to low birth weight or intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Malpresentation: Babies in a unicornuate uterus may be more likely to position themselves in a breech or transverse position due to the confined space, which could complicate delivery. Cesarean Section: While not mandatory, a cesarean may be recommended in cases of malpresentation, preterm labor, or other complications. However, this is not a universal requirement. Other Complications: Women with a unicornuate uterus may have a higher risk of endometriosis or painful periods, especially if a non-communicating rudimentary horn is present. Kidney abnormalities are also associated with Müllerian anomalies, as the kidneys and reproductive tract develop simultaneously in the fetus. Despite these risks, it's critical to note that not every woman with a unicornuate uterus will experience these complications. With proper medical care, many achieve successful pregnancies and deliveries. A Positive Outlook: Normal Vaginal Delivery Is Probable The diagnosis of a unicornuate uterus can feel daunting, but it's important to emphasize that a healthy, full-term pregnancy and a normal vaginal delivery are entirely possible. Advances in obstetrics and prenatal care have significantly improved outcomes for women with this condition. Here's why you can remain optimistic: Personalized Care: Working with an experienced obstetrician or maternal-fetal medicine specialist ensures close monitoring throughout pregnancy. Regular ultrasounds can track fetal growth, position, and amniotic fluid levels, allowing for timely interventions if needed. Not Doomed to Cesarean: While some women may need a cesarean due to specific complications, many with a unicornuate uterus deliver vaginally without issue. The decision depends on factors like fetal position, labor progression, and overall health, not the uterine anomaly alone. Full-Term Pregnancies Are Achievable: With careful monitoring, many women carry their pregnancies to term (37-40 weeks). Preterm birth is a risk, but it's not a certainty, and modern neonatal care can support babies born slightly early if needed. Healthy Babies: Countless women with a unicornuate uterus give birth to healthy, thriving babies. The condition does not inherently affect the baby's development or genetic health. Support and Advocacy: Connecting with others who have similar experiences, whether through online communities or support groups, can provide emotional strength and practical advice. Knowing you're not alone can make all the difference. A unicornuate uterus is a rare but manageable condition that requires awareness and, in some cases, specialized care. While there are risks to consider, they are not insurmountable, and many women with this anomaly experience successful pregnancies and vaginal deliveries without complications. With the right support, you can embrace your unique journey, knowing that a unicornuate uterus does not mean you're destined for preterm birth, cesarean delivery, or pregnancy complications. Instead, it's a testament to your resilience and the incredible capabilities of modern medicine to support you every step of the way.

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses the relationship between hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and cancer risk, particularly focusing on estrogen and progesterone. He reviews recent literature, including a 2025 paper that raises concerns about micronized progesterone and progestins. Dr. Doug emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between these two forms of progesterone and presents various studies, including the Women's Health Initiative and the PEPI trial, to analyze their implications on cancer risk. He concludes that while there are risks associated with HRT, micronized progesterone does not appear to significantly increase breast cancer risk, advocating for a careful risk-benefit analysis in treatment decisions.*STUDIES*https://www.annalsofoncology.org/article/S0923-7534(24)04880-4/fulltexthttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24781971/https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/395611https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article-abstract/95/1/30/2520191?redirectedFrom=fulltexthttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/cmt.5.4.332.340
This episode explores chrono-nutrition, the science of aligning meal timing with your body's natural rhythms (circadian clock). Studies show that eating breakfast is linked to significantly greater weight loss and improved metabolic health compared to eating dinner. The episode emphasizes the importance of understanding your chronotype (Lion, Bear, Wolf, or Dolphin) to optimize meal timing for better energy, digestion, sleep, and overall well-being. Irregular eating patterns disrupt internal clocks, leading to issues like insulin resistance, poor sleep, and weight gain. #weightloss #diet #wellness ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors!

Episode hosted by Mark Divine: Today, Commander Divine speaks with Tony Nader, MD, PhD, global expert in the science of consciousness and human development and head of the Transcendental Meditation organizations globally. In the episode, Tony shares the science of consciousness and the relationship between mind and body, consciousness and physiology, and the possibility to develop full human potential. Key Takeaways: Transcendental Meditation as an inner and outer practice. The reality is many Westerners think of meditation as an internal-only practice and therefore avoid it at all costs. Transcendental Meditation (TM), which Dr. Nader champions in the West, is instead both an internal and external practice, used to create more harmony in our real world lives. The survey says… meditate! Tony shares how TM has created research-backed results in both physical and mental realms. For instance, TM practitioners experience increased mental clarity, peace, and happiness, as well as less physiological stress, better healing and ability to concentrate - even (get this) better behavior! Ultimate reality and… rock consciousness? Tony details how TM allows practitioners to experience ultimate reality, which is the experience of all consciousness, everything, as one. Oh, and that includes rocks, which also hold consciousness, albeit of lower values than us humans. Less than 1% to heal the world. Studies have shown, including an experiment done in Washington, D.C., that when less than 1% of a population come together and practice Transcendental Meditation, there are cosmic shifts in the overall population behaviorally and mentally. Less car crashes, less violence, crime, and so on. TM is quite literally changing the world, by bringing us into harmony with the all-encompassing oneness of everything.

Studies show people often don't know how or why they believe what they do, and distractions can lead to accepting falsehoods. Belief begins with automatic acceptance before being evaluated against known truth, often without conscious awareness. This underscores the importance of staying grounded in Scripture, like the Bereans who tested all teachings against God's Word.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
What If Obedience Isn't the Same as Respect? We all want to raise good kids — respectful, obedient, and successful. But what if obedience is just compliance… no connection? In this episode, I dive deep into the final chapter of Netflix's Adolescence, and the heartbreaking unraveling of Jamie Miller, a 13-year-old boy whose silent pain led to tragedy. His father, Eddie, never saw it coming. Why? Because the connection was missing, even though he thought he was doing everything “right.” I open up about how even committed, hardworking dads like us can miss the quiet red flags our kids are waving. We explore how our need to discipline, protect, and “fix” can sometimes get in the way of the one thing our kids need most: to feel seen and safe. This episode isn't about shame. It's about waking up. Because your influence as a dad doesn't come from authority—it comes from emotional safety. If you've ever believed “my kid is doing fine,” this might be the most eye-opening 20 minutes you'll spend all year. I'll also give you a practical framework to help you ask better questions, create deeper emotional connections, and build a relationship your kids will trust—especially when things get tough. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this episode, I share: Why “How was your day?” might be the weakest way to check in The 3 fatherhood defaults that kill connection: Distance, Disapproval, and Discipline How to use the CARE method (Curiosity, Affirmation, Repair, Expectation) to reconnect with your child Why our kids confuse disconnection with disinterest—and how to fix it The real reason obedience without emotional connection doesn't build trust Here's what research supports about the power of action and intention: Studies show that couples who engage in regular, small acts of kindness report a 28% increase in relationship satisfaction. Research indicates that setting specific, shared goals increases the likelihood of improved communication and intimacy by 35%.
