Save on your Sugarproof Tea HERE: https://looseleafteamarket.com/products/sugarproof-tea?bg_ref=DlV8B9hf7K Your skin is aging faster than it should, and it might have nothing to do with your skincare routine. This week I'm sitting down with herbalist Kita Centella, author of Sugar Can F*ck Itself, to talk about the one thing quietly accelerating aging in midlife women that almost no one is checking for: sugar. We go deep on how sugar breaks down collagen at the cellular level, why it hits harder once estrogen starts to decline, and why your "healthy" breakfast might be doing more damage than you realize. This one might change how you look at your next glass of orange juice. We Go Deep On: How sugar breaks down collagen and accelerates visible skin aging Why estrogen decline makes the effects of sugar on skin even worse The inflammation connection between sugar and premature aging Where added sugar hides in foods marketed as "healthy" Why artificial sweeteners don't solve the problem either The herb that temporarily blocks your ability to taste sweetness Simple swaps that support aging from the inside out Why estrogen decline changes how your body processes sugar after 45 The brain science behind why sugar cravings feel impossible to control Where sugar hides in "healthy" foods like yogurt, dressings, and granola Why artificial sweeteners and even natural sugar substitutes keep cravings going Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Episode Links: Sugarproof Tea https://looseleafteamarket.com/products/sugarproof-tea?bg_ref=DlV8B9hf7K Learn More About Kita Centella Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/looseleafteamarket Website ➜ https://looseleafteamarket.com/products/sugarproof-tea?bg_ref=DlV8B9hf7K Book ➜ https://looseleafteamarket.com/products/sugar-can-f-ck-itself-book-become-sugar-proof-for-life Thank you to our show sponsors: TIMELINE:Timeline is offering 20% off your order!

Today we are talking about something that I think we all need to know about… How to reset your dopamine. And before you think this is going to be one of those extreme episodes where I tell you to throw your phone into the ocean, stop drinking coffee, sit in a dark room for three days and eliminate everything fun from your life… That is absolutely not what we are doing. Because dopamine isn't bad. We need dopamine. Dopamine is part of what makes us want things. Pursue things. Work toward goals. Get up and go. The problem is that we are living in an environment where we can get enormous amounts of stimulation with almost zero effort. Open Instagram. Refresh your email. Check likes. Open TikTok. Eat something hyper-palatable. Buy something. Get a notification. Watch another episode. Click another video. Check your texts. Pick up your phone because you have 17 seconds with nothing to do. We have essentially eliminated boredom. And I think we need to talk about what that is doing to us. Because I don't think most people have a motivation problem. I think some people have made normal life too boring compared to the stimulation they consume all day long. Think about this. Working toward a goal is slow. Building a business is slow. Getting stronger is slow. Improving a relationship is slow. Reading a book is slow. Learning something difficult is slow. But your phone can give you novelty every half second. So what happens when your brain gets accustomed to incredibly stimulating rewards that require almost no effort? The things that actually build an awesome life can start feeling painfully boring. And THAT is what I want to change today. I've been going deep into what Andrew Huberman, Chris Williamson, Stanford addiction psychiatrist Anna Lembke, Peter Attia and Gary Brecka have discussed around dopamine, reward, pleasure, discomfort and motivation. And there is one massive theme that keeps coming up: We need to stop getting so many rewards without earning them. We need less cheap dopamine… And more earned dopamine. More accomplishment dopamine. More anticipation. More effort. More challenge. More doing hard things and feeling awesome afterward. So today we're going to talk about what dopamine actually does, why our modern environment can completely screw with our motivation, what people mean by a dopamine reset, and most importantly… How we actually do it. Not forever. Not perfectly. But intentionally enough that normal life starts feeling interesting again. Because imagine waking up and actually WANTING to work on your goals. Imagine sitting in your car without immediately opening your phone. Imagine finishing a workout and letting that accomplishment be the reward instead of instantly needing another stimulus. Imagine being fully engaged in dinner. Or a conversation. Or a walk. Or your kids. Or your work. That's what we're after. Not less enjoyment. More enjoyment from the things that actually matter. FIRST… WHAT IS DOPAMINE? Dopamine isn't simply the "pleasure chemical" This is probably the biggest misunderstanding. Dopamine plays a huge role in motivation, pursuit, learning, reinforcement and determining what your brain decides is worth pursuing again. Think less "this makes me happy" and more: "Go get that again." It's a molecule heavily involved in wanting and pursuing. Huberman explains dopamine in terms of baseline and peaks You have a baseline level of dopamine. Then certain experiences generate temporary increases above that baseline. The important part is what happens afterward. A big dopamine peak can be followed by a period where dopamine activity falls below where it was previously. This is part of why something incredible can sometimes leave you feeling strangely flat afterward. The higher and more frequently we chase enormous peaks, the more ordinary activities can start losing their appeal. Think about it like contrast If you eat incredibly sweet processed foods all day… A blueberry doesn't taste very sweet. There isn't anything wrong with the blueberry. Your reference point changed. The same general concept applies here. When your environment becomes filled with intense stimulation… Quiet feels boring. Reading feels boring. Work feels boring. Walking feels boring. A normal conversation feels boring. Your life didn't necessarily become boring. Your stimulation threshold changed. WHAT I MEAN BY "CHEAP DOPAMINE" I'm going to use the phrase cheap dopamine throughout this episode even though scientifically dopamine itself isn't cheap or expensive. What I mean is: A high-reward experience requiring very little effort. Things like: Endless short-form videos Constant social media refreshing Notifications Online shopping Gambling Highly processed foods Video games for hours and hours Constant snacking Drinking Continually checking texts Refreshing email Internet rabbit holes Watching episode after episode after episode Constant novelty And here's the key… None of those things has to be inherently evil. It's the dose. The frequency. And whether you've lost control over your consumption. There's a massive difference between choosing to watch a movie on Saturday night… And being literally unable to stand in an elevator for 25 seconds without checking your phone. That's the part I want us to notice. THE WORLD HAS REMOVED THE WAITING This might be one of the biggest problems. Almost everything used to have some friction. You wanted food? You cooked it. You wanted entertainment? You waited until your show came on. You wanted to talk to your friend? You called them. Maybe they weren't home. You wanted to buy something? You drove somewhere. You wanted information? You found a book. Now? Everything is immediate. Food. Entertainment. Shopping. Attention. Validation. Communication. Information. Novelty. Almost every human desire has an app attached to it. And our brains evolved in an environment where rewards generally required work. Now we can receive reward after reward while lying horizontally on the couch. That is a massive mismatch. THE PLEASURE-PAIN SEESAW One of my favorite explanations comes from Dr. Anna Lembke. She describes pleasure and pain almost like opposite sides of a balance. When we repeatedly push hard toward pleasure… Our brain tries to restore balance. And over time, you may need more of the stimulus just to experience the same effect. This is incredibly obvious with severe addiction. But I think it's useful to recognize much milder versions in ourselves. Have you ever: Opened Instagram for five minutes and 45 minutes disappeared? Finished a show and immediately needed another episode? Finished dessert and started looking for something else sweet? Checked one notification and then somehow checked four different apps? Picked up your phone without consciously deciding to? That automatic reaching is important. You aren't necessarily choosing anymore. You're responding. And I want us to get back into choosing. WHY NOTHING FEELS EXCITING ANYMORE Sometimes people say: "I'm unmotivated." "I don't feel like working." "I can't concentrate." "I'm bored." "I don't really feel excited about anything." Obviously there can be many medical, psychological and situational reasons for those feelings. But there is another question worth asking: How much stimulation are you consuming? Because if you're exposing yourself to novelty constantly… Your brain never gets a chance to be bored enough to create. Never bored enough to think. Never bored enough to solve a problem. Never bored enough to decide what you actually want. We're treating boredom like an emergency. I actually think boredom is incredibly productive. Some of my best ideas happen when there's nothing else coming into my brain. And we are filling every single empty pocket. DOPAMINE STACKING Huberman talks about something that I think is fascinating: stacking multiple dopamine-producing experiences together. Think about a workout. Exercise itself can be rewarding. But now we add: Pre-workout. Favorite playlist. Phone. Texts. Social media. Energy drink. Maybe stimulants. Maybe a reward meal afterward. Maybe we post the workout and check responses. We've taken one intrinsically rewarding activity and stacked reward upon reward upon reward. And his point isn't that you can never do those things. It's that you don't necessarily want every good experience in life turned up to 100 every single time. Sometimes train without the perfect playlist. Sometimes walk without the podcast. Sometimes drink the coffee without simultaneously scrolling Instagram. Sometimes eat without watching television. Separate the rewards. You don't have to eliminate pleasure. Stop supercharging every experience. LEARN TO LOVE EFFORT This might be my favorite part of the entire episode. We need to stop making the reward exclusively something that comes AFTER the work. "I'll work out and then I can have this." "I'll finish this project and then I'll reward myself." "I'll complete my work and then I'll scroll." There's nothing wrong with celebrating accomplishments. But we also want to train ourselves to associate the effort itself with something positive. Because if the entire purpose of doing something difficult is the reward waiting at the end… The work becomes something you're trying to escape. Instead: "This discomfort means I'm getting stronger." "This is hard because I'm growing." "I'm proud of myself for doing this when I don't feel like doing it." "This is what keeping promises to myself feels like." "This is who I am." That shift is huge. The workout becomes the win. Doing the work becomes the win. Keeping the promise becomes the win. USE DISCOMFORT ON PURPOSE This theme comes up across a lot of these conversations. We're living in an unbelievably comfortable world. Temperature-controlled houses. Food everywhere. Cars. Couches. Entertainment. Delivery. Escalators. Amazon. Everything is optimized to eliminate friction. But voluntary discomfort can be incredibly valuable. Exercise. Walking. Strength training. Running. Sauna. Cold exposure when appropriate and done safely. Doing something physically difficult. Getting outside when conditions aren't perfect. Taking the stairs. Having the difficult conversation. Doing the work you're avoiding. The idea isn't: "Suffering is good." The idea is: Stop organizing your entire life around avoiding discomfort. Because challenge followed by satisfaction is very different from pleasure followed by emptiness. One you earned. One you consumed. We need both fun and hard things. But modern life has heavily tilted us toward consumption. DON'T START YOUR DAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S DOPAMINE Here's something I think would change a lot of people's lives. Do not roll over and immediately hand your brain to your phone. Because instantly you've got: Texts. News. Instagram. Email. TikTok. Other people's emergencies. Other people's opinions. Other people's lives. Other people's accomplishments. Other people's bodies. Other people's vacations. Other people's businesses. Other people's problems. Before you've even decided what YOU want your day to look like. I would rather protect that first part of the morning. Wake up. Water. Sunlight. Walk. Workout. Journal. Think. Plan. Work. Whatever your routine is. Just don't immediately flood your brain with novelty. You should decide the direction of your day before an algorithm decides it for you. THE 2.0 DOPAMINE RESET Okay. Here is what I would actually do. Not some insane internet detox. A realistic reset. RULE #1: Identify YOUR cheap dopamine Ask yourself: What do I compulsively reach for? Not what does the internet tell me is bad. What has control over ME? Maybe yours is: Instagram. TikTok. Shopping. Sugar. Video games. News. YouTube. Email. Texting. Something else. Identify the top one or two. Don't try to become a monk overnight. RULE #2: Take a meaningful break from the biggest offender If something truly feels compulsive, consider taking a real period away from it rather than constantly trying to moderate it. Try deleting it for a week. Maybe two. Maybe 30 days. See what happens. You might be shocked by how often your hand reaches for an app that isn't there. That's valuable information. RULE #3: Stop filling every gap This is a HUGE one. We're bringing back empty space. Stand in line. Just stand there. Drive five minutes. No podcast. Walk around the block. No headphones. Sit outside. Do nothing. Take a shower without content playing. Cook dinner without a video. You are retraining yourself to tolerate a lower level of stimulation. And here's the funny thing… After a while it doesn't feel low stimulation. It feels peaceful. RULE #4: Create phone-free zones Pick places where your phone does not belong. Examples: Bedroom Dinner table Gym Family time Bathroom First hour of the morning Last hour before bed Don't rely purely on willpower. Change your environment. Leave the phone somewhere else. Make the bad habit inconvenient. RULE #5: Turn off almost every notification Notifications are someone else deciding when your attention moves. Think about that. Unless something legitimately requires immediate attention… Turn it off. RULE #6: Stop stacking everything Coffee + Instagram + television + food + texting? No. Pick one. Workout + podcast + scrolling between sets + energy drink + Instagram? Simplify it. Let an experience stand alone. Food can just be food. Coffee can just be coffee. A walk can just be a walk. A conversation can just be a conversation. RULE #7: Get your dopamine through pursuit This is the big replacement strategy. You can't just remove things. You need better things to move toward. Exercise. Building something. Learning. Working. Creating. Sports. Relationships. Adventure. Goals. Competition. Skill. Experiences. Meaningful challenges. Get obsessed with something difficult. That is completely different than being addicted to consumption. RULE #8: Do one hard thing every day I love this rule. Every day, intentionally do something that you'd rather avoid. Workout hard. Make the phone call. Send the proposal. Clean the closet. Have the conversation. Finish the project. Run the hill. Get into the cold water if that's safe for you. Walk when you'd rather sit. Do the thing you've been procrastinating. You start creating evidence: "I don't have to feel like doing something in order to do it." That is power. RULE #9: Prioritize sleep Your brain isn't operating independently of your body. If you're chronically sleep-deprived, everything becomes harder. Motivation. Impulse control. Training. Food choices. Emotional regulation. Focus. Peter Attia and Huberman both hammer sleep for a reason. If we're trying to optimize our brain while sleeping five hours… We're focusing on the wrong end of the problem. RULE #10: Morning sunlight and movement Huberman talks frequently about getting outdoor light early in the day to anchor your circadian system. I love pairing that with movement. Outside. Walk. Light. No Instagram. Let your nervous system wake up naturally. It's incredibly simple. And simple things done repeatedly tend to beat complicated hacks. THE 24-HOUR CHALLENGE Here is your challenge. For the next 24 hours: No phone for the first 30 minutes after waking. No social media until you've completed something productive. Turn off unnecessary notifications. No phone while eating. Take one walk without headphones. Do one difficult thing you've been avoiding. No double-screening. If you're watching TV, you're not also scrolling. Put your phone outside your bedroom tonight. Let yourself experience boredom. Notice every time you instinctively reach for stimulation. Don't judge yourself. Observe yourself. Because awareness is the beginning of changing anything. THEN TRY SEVEN DAYS Now let's level it up. For seven days: Reduce your biggest cheap-dopamine behavior dramatically. You don't need to eliminate all pleasure. In fact, please don't. Go to dinner. Laugh. Drink your coffee. Listen to music. Hang with friends. Enjoy your life. This isn't punishment. We're trying to reclaim our ability to enjoy NORMAL things. That's the goal. Less artificial stimulation. More real life. ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION Before you reach for something, ask: Am I choosing this, or am I escaping something? That question can completely change things. Why am I opening Instagram? Because I intentionally decided to spend 15 minutes enjoying it? Fine. Or because this task got difficult? Why am I eating this? Because I'm hungry and I want it? Fine. Or because I'm uncomfortable? Why am I drinking? Because I'm celebrating with friends? Or because I can't tolerate sitting with how I feel? Why am I checking email for the 47th time? Because I'm waiting for something important? Or because working on the project in front of me is harder? That pause between impulse and behavior… That's where your power is. CHEAP DOPAMINE VS EARNED DOPAMINE This is the easiest way I can summarize the episode. Cheap dopamine: Consume. Scroll. Click. Watch. Refresh. Snack. Buy. Escape. Earned dopamine: Build. Train. Create. Learn. Connect. Explore. Compete. Finish. Accomplish. The first category isn't evil. But if the balance of your life is overwhelmingly consumption… Don't be surprised when your motivation disappears. Shift the ratio. More creating. Less consuming. More doing. Less watching. More participating. Less observing. More real life. Less digital life. WE NEED ANTICIPATION BACK I think anticipation is disappearing. When everything is immediately available… There's nothing to look forward to. And looking forward to something is part of the fun. Plan the trip. Wait for Friday night. Save the amazing dessert for dinner. Don't buy everything the second you want it. Put the concert on the calendar. Build toward the race. Earn the reward. Delay things intentionally sometimes. The waiting isn't ruining the experience. The waiting IS part of the experience. YOUR LIFE SHOULD NOT NEED CONSTANT ENTERTAINMENT This might be the line I want you to remember. You should not need to be entertained every minute in order to enjoy your life. Your kids shouldn't either. We need boring car rides. We need afternoons with nothing scheduled. We need conversations without phones. We need walks. We need staring out the freaking window. We need thinking. We need daydreaming. We need opportunities for our brains to say: "Okay… what should we do?" Creativity often appears after the stimulation disappears. THE GOAL IS NOT LOWER DOPAMINE This is important. We're not trying to crush dopamine. We're not trying to become emotionless. We're not trying to avoid things that make us feel amazing. We're trying to protect our ability to feel amazing. That's different. We want the vacation to feel incredible. The concert. The accomplishment. The amazing dinner. The business win. The race. The adventure. The hug. The goal. The experience. We just don't need to manufacture an artificial mini-version of that feeling 800 times between breakfast and lunch. Leave some room. Let your baseline exist without constantly smashing the stimulation button. Here's what I think is so interesting about all of this. We have designed a world where almost everything that used to require effort can now be accessed instantly. And that sounds like freedom. But if we're not careful… Convenience becomes dependence. Entertainment becomes distraction. Pleasure becomes compulsion. And access becomes addiction. The answer isn't to reject modern life. I'm certainly not giving up my phone. I'm not giving up coffee. I'm not giving up Instagram. I'm not giving up amazing food or concerts or trips or all the fun things. I want MORE life. That's actually the entire point. I don't want to spend my life looking down at a screen getting tiny rewards when there are enormous rewards available by actually participating in life. I want the dopamine from doing the workout I didn't want to do. Building the business. Taking the trip. Making the memory. Trying something new. Getting really freaking good at something. Having an amazing conversation. Being completely present with my kids. Creating something I'm proud of. Doing something hard. That's the dopamine I want more of. And maybe the simplest takeaway from this whole episode is this: Stop making pleasure so easy and effort so optional. Let yourself work for things. Let yourself wait for things. Let yourself be bored. Let yourself struggle. Let yourself anticipate. Let yourself earn some of the really good feelings. Because when we stop trying to make every moment maximally stimulating… Something really cool happens. Normal life starts becoming awesome again. And that is how to be awesome at resetting your dopamine.
Read transcriptEvery kid who ever begged a parent for money to hit GameStop on release day understands the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship series in their bones: it's the same card game, sold back to you once a year, wearing a slightly fancier hat each time. Konami ran this bit from 2003 to 2006 with the discipline of a Swiss watchmaker and the restraint of absolutely nobody when it came to naming the things. Four games! Four years! Somehow four completely different amounts of the word “World Championship” crammed into each title! And somewhere in that run, things got weird. By the last entry, Konami had apparently decided Yugi, Kaiba, and the rest of the cast had done enough work, and quietly let you duel the actual monster cards instead, like the whole show got replaced by its own trading cards in some kind of legal dispute. There's also a tiny RPG town nobody asked for, a cartridge somehow refereeing six languages at once, and just enough real cardboard cards taped inside the box that there's a real argument the packaging outsold the game. Grabbing a seat at the table to help me sort genuine dueling nostalgia from pure cardboard-fueled compulsion is William Morgan, host of The Geek Gauntlet Podcast, self-billed as the fastest hour in podcasting, a claim that tracks given how fast he and the crew burn through a week's worth of comics, movies, anime, and gaming news. So keep an eye on your Life Points, don't forget your face-downs, and let's find out if the World Championship series was Konami's finest run of Game Boy dueling, or just years of very well-packaged déjà vu. Learn such things as: Why do I think this is so weird but yearly sports games aren't? How far back into a game's ruleset can you go if you weren't there when it was current? Who bought the game for the game, and who bought it just for the included card? And so much more! You can find William on The Geek Gauntlet Podcast.

What if children's literature was never as innocent as we imagine? In Sugarcoated Ethics: Children's Literature and Atlantic Enslavement (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2026), the relationship between childhood reading and Atlantic slavery is brought into sharp focus. The book argues that children's literature did not merely emerge alongside the plantation economy; it was deeply shaped by it. Sugar, sweetness, moral instruction, and domestic comfort were all tied to systems of enslavement and colonial trade, even as the violence behind them was softened or erased in stories for young readers. The book also examines how ideas of white civility shaped childhood. White children, particularly girls, were cast as symbols of innocence, refinement, and moral feeling, while Black children were excluded from those same protections. Through analyses of persecuted-heroine narratives, missionary education, and colonial schooling, the study reveals how children's literature helped normalise racial hierarchy across the British Empire. Yet the project is equally attentive to resistance and alternative ethical traditions. Afro-Caribbean oral storytelling, including Anansi tales, songs, and folktales, emerges as a powerful counterarchive. These traditions preserved histories of survival, collective memory, and resistance that colonial print culture often attempted to suppress. The discussion of the “Queen Mary” Fireburn song, for instance, highlights how storytelling became a form of ethical education and cultural continuity across generations. One of the book's most striking contributions is its global scope. Children's texts on slavery circulated far beyond Britain and the Caribbean, travelling to Africa, Asia, and the Middle East via missionary and imperial networks. In translation and adaptation, these works sometimes reinforced imperial ideologies, but they could also be reshaped in unexpected ways by ‘local' readers and writers. Sugarcoated Ethics asks readers to reconsider what children's literature teaches us about morality, empathy, and history. It challenges the assumption that childhood stories are politically neutral and invites us to think more critically about the ethical worlds children's books continue to create today.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-27-2026: Preparing for extreme heat requires a few days of controlled hyperthermia to boost blood plasma volume and trigger heat shock protein production. Dr. Dawn cites research showing that daily 40-minute treadmill sessions in an 80-degree room followed by 40-minute hot baths for six days—or simply an hour daily in a 40°C bath for four days—produces 75-80% of full acclimatization before a heat-zone trip. Five red flags warrant an ER trip for abdominal pain: pain worsening with coughing or car bumps (peritonitis), lack of gas passage with nausea (bowel obstruction) especially with dark green bilious vomiting, yellowing whites of eyes (bile duct obstruction with sepsis risk), tarry black shiny stool (bleeding ulcer versus coffee-ground vomit), and dizziness with pain (possible leaking aortic aneurysm). Dr. Dawn urges any man who has smoked over 100 lifetime cigarettes to request the Medicare-covered abdominal ultrasound screening for aortic aneurysm, noting only 4% of eligible men currently receive it. Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) fill nearly half of disinfectants, surface sanitizers, and cleaning wipes, with use surging after 2016 FDA antimicrobial bans and the COVID pandemic. A 2023 Environmental Science and Technology review documented reproductive toxicity, hormone mimicking, dermal and respiratory irritation, and disruption of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Dr. Dawn recommends apple cider vinegar and water as a safe household cleaner and directs listeners to EWG.org for QAC-free product listings. A UK Biobank study of 65,000 people born in the 1940s-50s exploited WWII sugar rationing (eight ounces weekly through 1953) as a natural experiment. Those exposed to less sugar before age two had 20% lower dementia risk with 2.5-year delayed onset, and protection held even for those whose low-sugar exposure was purely in utero—underscoring the importance of avoiding added sugars in baby foods during the first 1,000 days. A Coast Guard rescuer's suicide following years of headaches and mood swings prompted his teenage daughter's high school survey of 77 surfmen, most of whom described the same TBI symptoms. Repeated boat impacts hitting waves at 6G at the deck translate to roughly 60G at the sailor's head—more violent than car crashes—prompting the Coast Guard's first official acknowledgment of the wave-pounding brain injury problem. Anopheles stephensi, a hardy South Asian malaria vector that thrives in urban environments and survives dry seasons, has spread from Djibouti (2012) through Yemen, Ethiopia, Sudan, and Kenya. Genomic analysis reveals distinct genetic clusters as it advances, all largely resistant to standard mosquito-control chemicals used in netting and sprays. Dr. Dawn ties this to broader arthropod-borne disease expansion in the U.S. from climate warming, and defends deer culling as tick-vector reduction. Dr. Dawn recommends the PREVENT calculator (using blood pressure, cholesterol, age, sex) as the starting point for coronary risk assessment. Coronary calcium scores are most useful for those in the borderline/intermediate range (3-9% ten-year risk)—a score above age-normal warrants reconsidering statin therapy—but add little value at high risk (where zero calcium doesn't rule out non-calcified plaque) or in older patients. An update on shingles vaccination and dementia: Geldsinger's 2025 Welsh natural-experiment study (exploiting birthday-based Shingrix rollout cutoffs) showed a 20% dementia reduction, since replicated in Canada, Australia, and Scotland. New Hebrew University data suggests giving Shingrix four weeks apart (Dr. Dawn cautions against this shortened interval) may stabilize cognition in existing Alzheimer's patients. The proposed mechanism involves boosting regulatory T-cells that dampen chronic neuroinflammation—also explaining why BCG (400% dementia reduction in bladder cancer patients) and flu vaccines show similar protective effects. An oral KRAS-inhibiting drug, daraxonrasib, doubled median survival in 500 patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer from about six months to 13.2 months by blocking proteins produced by the historically undruggable KRAS gene—the first major advance for a cancer where metastatic diagnosis has meant near-immediate death sentence.

Sugar isn't just a habit; it's one of the most addictive substances in our diet, and most of us don't even realize how much we're consuming. In this episode, I'm breaking down my simple, four-step method for kicking a sugar addiction for good, without feeling deprived.I'll show you exactly where sugar hides on food labels (hint: it's not where you think), teach you the quick math trick that reveals the real sugar content in any packaged food, and explain why "healthier" sugars like honey, agave, and coconut sugar are still sugar. I'm also breaking down why some fruits are secretly loaded with fructose, which ones are safer bets, and why fruit today isn't the same fruit your grandparents ate.I'll get personal too, sharing my own history with Diet Coke addiction and why artificial sweeteners can trick your brain into craving more sugar, not less.

Unique catches up with her client Nicole, a 57-year-old physiotherapist from South Australia who successfully healed her gallbladder, reversed severe fatty liver, eliminated pancreatitis, cured chronic eczema, and resolved metabolic syndrome using the Bean Protocol—all without surgery or medication. Huzzah!Key Discussion HighlightsThe Turnaround Moment: After ending up in the ER with a blocked bile duct and being scheduled for gallbladder removal, Nicole chose to discharge herself and find a root-cause solution.Reversing "Irreversible" Conditions: Bloodwork and scans confirmed her fatty liver was gone in 6 months, her metabolic syndrome/pre-diabetes reversed, and her severe foot eczema disappeared in 3 months.The Role of Fiber & Soluble Beans: How dedicated soluble fiber intake binds to bile, clears toxins, lowers cholesterol (Nicole's dropped from 7.2 to 3.6), and supports liver detoxification.Overcoming Coffee Dependency: Nicole details her journey off coffee (a staple during her 8-year battle with chronic/adrenal fatigue) and how breaking caffeine addiction restored her baseline daily energy.Active Aging & Muscle Building: Nicole shares how she built 2 kg of lean muscle mass in her late 50s through resistance training and cycling, debunking age-related decline myths.Practical Travel Hacks: How Nicole dehydrates her own home-cooked bean stews and packs freeze-dried chicken breast to stick to her health boundaries while traveling or camping.Links & Resources Mentioned:Unique's 12-Week women's Fiber healing group w/ Karen Hurd.

In last week's show (dorkfest part 1), we discussed two components of structure, acidity and tannin, and how they are like two sides of a picture frame, structure. In this episode (dorkfest part 2), I cover the other two sides of that frame, sugar and alcohol, to complete the picture. For me, these components are the fundamentals and although writers are always trying to add more to the frame, they all can be attributed to one of these four elements. In this show I cover the following topics on sugar and alcohol: What are they? What are their roles in wine? Where do sugar and alcohol come from? How are each measured? How do we perceive sugar and alcohol (there is an especially interesting section about what we perceive as sweet, versus the reality! You may be surprised!) No and low alcohol 'wine' – how they are made, what is lost, and why I don't think they are actually wine! This is really dorky stuff but something that you should dig into if you really want to understand what you're tasting in wine! Enjoy it in all its dorkiness!

Honey and maple syrup count as added sugar, just like white table sugar. Eating too much sweetener increases calcium in your urine and lowers your urine volume. Both of those changes make kidney stones much more likely to form. Up to sixty percent of stone formers have high urine calcium, and extra sugar makes that problem worse.We break down how different sweeteners affect your body, including their glycemic index numbers. Maple syrup scores fifty-four, honey scores fifty-eight to sixty, and table sugar scores sixty-five. You will learn the daily sugar limits to aim for: twenty-five grams for women and thirty-eight grams for men. We also share why you do not have to give up treats forever.You will walk away with simple ways to cut back on sugar without feeling miserable. Changing your diet takes time and patience, but your cravings will fade as you take baby steps. You do not need perfection to protect your kidneys.

Back in 1988, CBS gave us Garfield: His 9 Lives, an anthology special where our favorite lasagna enthusiast got to be a caveman, a pampered Egyptian god-cat, and an honest-to-goodness astronaut fending off an interstellar war fleet. Ambitious! Mythic, even! Then in 2006, Lucky Jump Games and The Game Factory looked at that legacy, borrowed the exact same title for a Game Boy Advance platformer, and said: actually, what if his nine lives were a farm, a haunted house, a circus, a sewer, a tree, an alley, an obedience school, and a lab? No pyramids. No space combat. Just Garfield, freshly stuffed from an eating binge, suffering eight increasingly damp nightmares about locations you could reach on foot from his own kitchen. Climbing out of Garfield's nightmare to help us survey the damage is Derek B Gayle, who hosts or co-hosts what feels like an ever-multiplying stable of shows including Walloping Websnappers, Gimmicks, Skreeonk!, and, at this point, so many other podcasts that keeping an accurate list may violate several laws of podcast physics. If Garfield hates Mondays, Derek looked at that same feeling and apparently decided the correct response was to start four more podcasts to fill the time. So raid the fridge, settle in for a night you won't remember fondly, and let's find out if Garfield and His Nine Lives earned its spot next to the caveman, the pharaoh, and the astronaut, or if it should've stayed exactly the kind of dream you forget the second your alarm goes off. Learn such things as: Are names of things even really that important? Why would you ever try to save your mortal enemy? Can you be surprised by anything, or anyone, that Garfield runs across? And so much more! You can find Derek @DerekBGayle on Bluesky, Instagram, and other social media platforms that may or may not exist when this was posted, hear him on other podcasts on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective such as Gimmicks, Walloping Websnappers, Lee Carvallo's Podding Challenge, Skreeonk!, and Falling with Style.

Follow my Instagram Join my Street Team! Give me money on my Patreon Gatsbys American Dream is a Seattle-based rock band known for blending pop-punk, post-hardcore, progressive rock, and emo into a sound that rarely stays in one lane. Formed in the early 2000s, the band built a devoted following with albums like Ribbons and Sugar, Volcano, and their self-titled 2006 record. Their songs are packed with unusual structures, sharp hooks, literary references, and the kind of unpredictable shifts that made them stand out from the mid-2000s scene. Despite never reaching the mainstream level of many of their contemporaries, Gatsbys became a cult favorite and influenced plenty of bands that followed. After years of sporadic activity, the band reunited and released Modern Man in 2025, their first full-length album in nearly two decades. I got Nic on the Zoom and this is what we chat about: There's a song out there where he's auditioning for Chiodos Playing short sets on purpose Acceptance band progressing their sound on the 2nd record Getting made fun of by Goldfinger fans Kane Hodder Fearless Records Their $40,000 music video Playing with Katy Perry on Warped Tour Flipping their van Pranking on the road And a ton more Check out their shows in Austin and Chicago in Nov and Seattle in Dec.

From chocolate and sugar prices to energy markets and inflation, El Niño's impacts may soon reach far beyond the weather forecast. Our Latin America Agribusiness Analyst Julia Rizzo maps out where the pressure could emerge first.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Julia Rizzo, Latin America Agribusiness Analyst at Morgan Stanley. Today: how El Niño could move from the Pacific into commodity markets, grocery prices, and investor portfolios. It's Wednesday, August 19th, at 10am in Sao Paulo.You may not follow rainfall patterns in Brazil or cocoa-growing conditions in West Africa. But you immediately notice when chocolate, groceries, or electricity cost more. And you can connect the dots to El Niño -- a warming cycle in the Pacific Ocean that disrupts weather globally. It changes where rain falls and shapes the outlook for crops, power markets, transportation, and inflation. There is now a 95 percent chance of a very strong El Niño in the fourth quarter of 2026. It could end up being among the most powerful events in more than 75 years of recorded history. Timing and location matter greatly. Crop damage often depends on whether heat or heavy rain arrives during a narrow planting, flowering, or harvest window. The most direct effects are likely to appear first in commodities. Sugar is on the list of commodities most exposed to favorable price dynamics from weather conditions. Cocoa also looks tight. Grains are more complicated. Soybeans need evidence of a net South American production loss. Problems in northern Brazil may be offset by stronger crops in Argentina or Brazil south. Corn is even more dependent on timing. The key near-term catalyst remains U.S. weather and crops. What happens next matters well beyond agricultural markets. Food is the main channel through which El Niño reaches the broader economy, and the effect usually appears after a one-year lag. That makes inflation primarily a 2027 story. In Latin America, the largest incremental inflation risks are concentrated in Peru, Brazil, and Colombia, with most of the pressure arriving in 2027. That matters for central banks. Weather shocks can fade. So, policymakers often look through an initial rise in food prices. The greater concern is that higher food costs may begin to influence inflation expectations, wages, rents, or other prices across the economy. Colombia stands out as the clearest case where those second-round effects could complicate monetary policy. India and Indonesia also face meaningful economic exposure. Agriculture accounts for a large share of output and employment in these countries. India is especially sensitive. Agriculture represents about 18 percent of the GDP, 43 to 45 [percent] of jobs, while food makes up roughly 36 percent of the consumer price basket. Record food reserves may provide some protection, though a poor growing season could still weigh on rural incomes and keep food inflation elevated. The economic consequences will vary widely. Higher agricultural prices can support farmer income and benefit some parts of the food and agricultural supply chain. They can also raise costs for households, food producers, and businesses that depend on grains and sugar. Utilities may benefit in markets where hotter or drier conditions lift electricity prices, while heavy rainfall could disrupt transport routes and airports in those exposed regions. Historical asset-price signals are limited, so this is less of a broad macro trade than a detailed assessment of local exposure. Rainfall, crop timing, inventories, and the ability to pass higher costs on to consumers will determine where the pressure lands. El Niño may begin in the Pacific, but its market footprint can travel from cocoa farms in West Africa to a grocery aisle, a power grid, or a central bank meeting. Thanks for listening.

你聽過Sugar Dating(糖約會)嗎?不同於傳統長期「包養」模式,在這種透過註冊平台帳號、挑選(或被挑選)約會對象的契約情感關係中,可以是單次、短期,也不一定要發生性行為。平台上的「糖爹(Sugar daddy)」與「糖寶貝(Sugar baby)」各有哪些樣貌?雙方在關係中各自獲得與付出了什麼?親密關係被高度「商品化」後,兩性之間的權力天平是變得平等或更加傾斜? 本集節目將從糖爹與糖寶貝的互動談起,邀請3位來賓從不同觀點交鋒:平台使用者喬薇(化名),分享她在一般異性戀關係中感受到的女性弱勢,以及在Sugar Dating過程中,奪回身體與關係主導權的感受;研究性別與性工作的社會學者陳美華,則在個人奪回主導權的敘事之外,看見平台端不應被忽視的責任,與Sugar baby們目前無法彼此連結、提升工作保障的缺口。 04:12 Sugar Dating與包養有什麼差別?平台如何配對? 15:17「糖寶貝」怎麼評估、降低契約化的約會風險? 19:44 Sugar Dating的多元輪廓:付錢的糖爹不一定是情感世界「支配者」? 32:25 平台的演算法與商業機制:安全風險誰來承擔? 41:00 親密關係商品化,凸顯當代異性戀親密關係機制的瓶頸? 來賓|中山大學特聘教授兼社科院院長社會科學院陳美華、陳思捷、喬薇(化名) 製作團隊|梁玉芳、藍婉甄、陳思樺、黃鈺婷 插畫|喬薇(化名)

Dr. Robert Lustig is a neuroendocrinologist, pediatrician, and bestselling author who has spent 45 years watching children get sicker despite his best efforts to stop it. His work connects the dots between ultra-processed food, mitochondrial dysfunction, dopamine hijacking, and the chronic stress epidemic in a way that is impossible to dismiss. In this conversation, we explore what he calls the hostage brain, what happens to a nervous system under sustained biochemical assault, and why so much of what we call personal failure is actually a systems problem.What We Dive Into:1. When chronic pain, emotional or physical, goes unresolved, the brain reaches for anything that spikes dopamine to quiet it. Over time, tolerance builds and neurons die. Lustig's point is that this is not a personal weakness. The food, the screens, and the stress have conspired to put nearly all of us in some version of this state.2. Dopamine drives wanting. Serotonin drives contentment. The loneliness epidemic is not simply a social problem but a neurochemical one. Cortisol reduces serotonin, dopamine antagonizes it, and ultra-processed food depletes the tryptophan needed to make it. 3. Lustig draws a clear line between primary needs, love, sleep, real food, and secondary desires, status, power, accumulation. Meeting the basics first is both the simplest and most radical act available.Know Thyself, but not by yourself.

Live from Vans Warped Tour Long Beach, CD Burners sits down with Derek Sanders of Mayday Parade to look back on 20 years of the band and their long history with Warped Tour. Derek takes us back to the days of following the tour in a van and selling CDs to kids in the crowd, talks about the awkward early shows that helped shape Mayday Parade, and reveals what it's like returning to Warped Tour two decades later. We also get into the band's massive Sweet, Sad, Sugar trilogy, the challenge of writing a Warped Tour setlist after 20 years of music, the heavier bands Derek wishes Mayday Parade could tour with, his hilariously named first bands, and whether making music still feels the same after all these years. Plus, the Warped Tour crowd gets to ask Derek a few questions of their own. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
396: Allulose has quickly become one of the most popular sugar alternatives, but is it actually a healthy choice? In this Bite of Knowledge, I'm breaking down what allulose is, how it's made, and why its GMO status and labeling can be confusing. I'll also cover how allulose may affect digestion, including bloating, cramping, diarrhea, and gut bacteria, why it may be hiding in many low-carb and keto products, and why this sweetener may not be as harmless as it's often made out to be. Plus, I'll share what I use instead when I want to add sweetness without relying on sugar substitutes. Topics Discussed: → What Allulose actually is → How Allulose is made → Why Allulose does NOT come from fruit → Why there's a lawsuit happening As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

Book a free consultation call with Robert Sikes to break through your keto or low-carb plateau: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/callYour heart was built to burn fat, not sugar, and losing that ability may drive heart disease. In episode 909 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes and Dr. Anthony Jay break down how insulin resistance can leave the heart low on fuel as LDL cholesterol and artery plaque rise. They cover HOMA-IR, statins, coronary calcium scans, CCTA, familial hypercholesterolemia, Lp(a), seed oils, inflammation, and microplastics. Dr. Jay shares why low LDL may not fix the root cause, when statins can help, and how fasting, a low-carb diet, and metabolic flexibility may support heart health.

What does sugar have to do with heart disease? According to Dr. Geoffrey Boone, preventive cardiologist, much more than most people realize. After decades of helping people prevent heart disease, he explains how sugar contributes to inflammation, damages the lining of the arteries, and why these changes can begin years before any symptoms appear.In this episode, we talk about why Dr. Boone believes prevention still isn't the main focus of healthcare, how modern imaging can detect heart disease long before a heart attack, and why highly processed foods have become such a problem. We also discuss why moderation isn't always realistic for people with sugar addiction, where lifestyle changes fit alongside medication, and the practical steps you can take today to protect your heart for the long term.Find Dr. Boone's book here.To get personalized guidance to stop emotional eating and break free from sugar cravings, plus support and accountability... join the 90-day program, Freedom from Cravings Formula TODAY.For step-by-step guidance toward freedom from cravings, get your copy of my new book: "Break Free from Sugar Cravings".

Read transcriptLet's talk about the year 2007, when Ubisoft looked at Konami's TMNT license, going up for grabs after three straight beat-em-ups, and said “yeah, we'll take it,” the video game equivalent of adopting somebody else's very large, very established pet. They tied the whole thing to Imagi's brand new fully CGI turtle movie and then, in an act of scheduling chaos I can only respect, shipped the game three entire days before the film hit theaters. Bold! Confusing! Possibly the result of someone losing a calendar! And then, because apparently one platform was never going to cut it, Ubisoft just kept going. PlayStation 2! GameCube! Xbox 360! Wii! PC! A PlayStation 3 version that got paraded around at trade shows like a prize pony and then quietly put out to pasture, never to be seen again! And just when you think the roster's full, Nintendo DS and PSP roll in with an entirely separate game wearing the same name tag, because why make one turtle game when you could make several turtle games and let the consumer sort it out. Also, bonus points to whoever in marketing decided the title needed zero subtitles, zero colons, zero numbers, just “TMNT,” like it's the only one that's ever existed. Confidence! Climbing out of the sewer to help me survey this multi-console fever dream is Jeremy Powers, host and creator of the Zenspath Entertainment Network, a man who apparently collects retro hardware, works as an engineer, and still finds time to run a podcast, which is either elite time management or a full refusal to acknowledge the concept of a day off. So track down whichever version of this thing actually ended up in your house back in 2007, because statistically there's a good chance it wasn't the same one as your neighbor's, and let's find out if TMNT earned its spot in the turtle hall of fame, or if it should've stayed a trade show prototype. Learn such things as: Do we ever stop to think that maybe the people making these games knew what they were doing all along? Will we ever get that chance to see Splinter and Iroh together? How much retreading is acceptable when you're the new guy making things? And so much more! You can find Jeremy on YouTube @Zenspathcom and of course at the Zenspath Entertainment Network.

In this Freedom Friday episode, Ben Azadi and Alex dive into the hidden connection between survival mode, stress, relationships, and your health. They break down why constantly reacting to life can keep you stuck in a state of scarcity, and how learning to pause, respond, and shift your perspective can change the way you experience your day. What we get into: - Why your body can get stuck in a cycle of stress and survival mode- How everyday stressors can compound over time.- The difference between reacting and responding, and why the space between the two matters.- How breathing can help you interrupt an automatic stress response.- Why gratitude and abundance can completely shift the way you approach your day. One line to remember: You can't always control what happens to you, but you can control how you respond.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Blaming hormones is comforting because it gives us a villain and a shortcut. We go the other direction and build the real foundation: calories in versus calories out, plus the three forces that quietly drive the whole system, stress, sleep, and daily movement. From cortisol to insulin to thyroid hormones, we explain what these signals actually do, where they come from, and why “too much” and “too little” are both problems. No fear mongering, no miracle cocktails, just physiology you can use.We also unpack how nutrition misinformation spreads. “Sugar is bad” sells, “insulin is the bad guy” sells, and “fix your adrenal fatigue” sells, but simplification is not the same as truth. We talk about why sugar feels addictive in combination foods, how cortisol can be anti-inflammatory, why insulin is essential, and what to do in real-world scenarios like low blood sugar. Then we connect appetite hormones like leptin and ghrelin to sleep loss, chronic dieting, and the difference between psychological hunger and actual physiological hunger.Finally, we zoom out to the big picture: life stages. As we move from school to work to family life, NEAT drops, stress rises, sleep gets crushed, alcohol and caffeine creep in, and processed convenience foods become the default. That shift looks like “a slow metabolism,” but it is usually a predictable pattern we can measure and change. We share the coaching tools we rely on, sleep logs, stress questionnaires, measured food tracking, and meal photos, so progress is based on awareness, not guesses.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who keeps saying “it's my hormones,” and leave a review with the biggest myth you want us to tackle next.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

We get medicines wey fit help the heart work better. Some medicines help remove extra water from the body. Some medicines help reduce the work wey the heart dey do. Others fit help protect the heart make e no weak For some people, doctor fit recommend special devices or surgery depending on the cause. But medicine no be the only thing.

Pour clore cette série de l'été, retour en 2020 pour un clafoutis aux abricots en famille — un épisode aussi doux et sucré que celui qui a lancé « les épisodes du 90″. Le 90 se cache dans une mesure, aujourd'hui — tendez bien l'oreille une dernière fois ! The perfect way to close this summer series: baking an apricot clafoutis with my daughters, multiplying a recipe, borrowing a pitter from a neighbor, and slowly getting ready for summer vacation. It's a warm, everyday moment – kitchen vocabulary, family bickering over fruit in the batter, and one particularly tricky little question to say out loud with just the right intonation. This final episode brings the ‘épisodes du 90' series full circle, echoing the very first rebroadcast that started it all. This summer, no pen, no notebook – just listening and speaking. Subscribers receive a podcast letter with this episode: a question to think about before pressing play, cultural markers to go deeper into the episode, a tricky little phrase worth practicing for its intonation alone, and a comprehension question to answer once you've heard the whole story. A different way to make progress in French.

This episode covers three very different astronomy stories and then moves into a lively Q&A with listener questions. Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson discuss a possible sugary molecule in the center of the Milky Way, the risk lunar landers may contaminate ice that could preserve clues to life's origins, and a new way to track lost dogs using satellite connectivity. The second half of the episode answers questions about moons with atmospheres, secret astronomy, hot Jupiters, and black hole mergers.Key topicsIn this episode, Fred Watson explains an update from Peter Verweyen on MOND, now referred to as Aether Scalar Tensor Theory, and how it relates to dark matter and dark energy debates.We discuss the detection of erythrulose, a sugar molecule found in interstellar gas clouds near the center of the Milky Way, and why this matters for prebiotic chemistry.Fred describes how molecules like sugar can form in cold molecular clouds before stars and planets exist, making some ingredients for life surprisingly common.We discuss a new study warning that rocket exhaust from future lunar landings could contaminate ice in permanently shadowed craters at the Moon's south pole.The Moon's polar ice may contain ancient prebiotic molecules delivered by comets, asteroids, and dust, making it a possible time capsule for the chemistry that led to life.We discuss the practical and ethical problem that landers have to use rocket engines, and those exhaust plumes may spread methane and other organics across the lunar surface very quickly.Fred shares how satellite-based direct-to-cell or direct-to-mobile systems could help locate lost dogs in remote places without cell coverage.We discuss how this kind of tracking builds on existing GPS pet trackers, and how it could be useful in wilderness areas, while also noting the limits and concerns in national parks.Timestamps(00:00) Start of the episode and what's coming up(03:12) MOND update and the new AEST name(07:10) A sugary molecule in the center of our galaxy(09:51) Why sugar can form in deep space before stars exist(12:24) Why lunar landings could contaminate the Moon's ice(14:54) The Moon as a time capsule for prebiotic molecules(16:24) Methane exhaust and rapid contamination risk(18:37) Should the Moon be protected like a national park?(20:28) Satellite tracking for lost dogs in remote areas(24:52) Direct-to-mobile satellite technology explained(25:44) The Judas goat program and invasive species controlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/space-nuts-astronomy-insights-cosmic-discoveries--2631155/support.

This week, the boys got conspiratorial again! We headed to 1974 to give Alan J. Pakula's “The Parallax View” a spin. Starring Warren Beatty, this political thriller about a journalist trying to uncover the secret conspiracy behind a senator's assassination, two of the co-hosts called this movie “great”, and one called it “fucking tragic”.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Maria: Hi, thank you for all you do. You're just an amazing person. My friend had a painful kidney stone in the Er , doctor said it was so close coming out per the images, gave him some morphine we went home next day no pain so at that point, we thought he passed it. A month later the same thing , after images they saw that it got stuck in a comfortable place, so they had to do a procedure to get it out. Meanwhile, he was having stomach issues, diarrhea, couldn't eat, and stomach hurt. Then his mind started racing then he had anxiety. They are giving them pills to take for the pain and then now they're giving him anxiety pills. He's never had stomach problems since the kidney stone happen. What can we do next? Thank you!!! Bryan: Hi Dr. Cabral. I'm assuming this is a question you've been asked before or least know the answer to but I wanted to ask you something on sugar. If you had to choose between added sugar or sugar alcohols (Erythritol etc) being the worse of two evils which one would you pick? I thought the answer would definitely be added sugar but I've heard a number of health "experts" in this field talk negatively about sugar alcohols. Just curious to get your take and clear up the issue once and for all. Bettina: Hi Dr. Cabral,I'd like your recommendation on what to do if someone is exposed to the hairs from the oak processionary caterpillar (Thaumetopoea processionea). This species has unfortunately spread to Denmark, where it normally doesn't exist.Contact can cause: Skin: Caterpillar dermatitis with intense itching, redness, and blisters. Eyes: Painful conjunctivitis. Respiratory system: Coughing, throat irritation, and in rare cases asthma‑like breathing issues.What would you suggest supporting or doing after exposure? Thank you so much. Richard: Hello Dr. Cabral, thank you so much for doing your daily podcasts. All the listeners including myself learn so much from them and the information you provide is invaluable for us to help ourselves and our loved ones. Over the years I've incorporated what I've learned from you & I can feel that I'm slowly getting better. I'm pretty sure that soon I will put my autoimmune disease into remission and finally heal for good! I just have a quick question. I will be taking the Vinco thyroid glandular again soon and I was wondering if it can be taken with things like florafilm, proteolytic enzymes & probiotics while maintaining its full effectiveness? I take the latter 2 daily and I would like to continue while adding the glandular. Is there anything that it can't be taken with? Thanks so much!

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Sugartime Inc. LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features David Sugarman, the former Wall Street vice president who talked his way into the NBA Players Association without a law degree and built a one-stop business empire for pro athletes under his "Sugar" persona. David breaks down signing New Edition with $900 to his name, then the fallout years later: a federal grand jury testimony against his best friend, Fugees co-founder Pras Michel, tied to fugitive financier Jho Low, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Obama campaign money — plus the jail stint and divorce that cost him everything. Wall Street, the Fugees, a fugitive financier, and a fall from grace — this episode has all of it, and somehow David is still standing. This one needs to be heard, not summarized.
