In today's Part 2 episode, Dr. Aaron Nicholas continues his high-impact presentation, focusing on the often-overlooked skill of patient communication and how it directly drives case acceptance. He breaks down how to shift from technical jargon to relatable, fifth-grade-level language that patients can understand and act on. With real-life examples, he outlines how to present urgency without overpromising availability, how to guide patients toward comprehensive care through effective storytelling, and how to handle emergencies with calm, efficient systems.  Dr. Nicholas also dives into practical strategies like using visual aids, implementing simple systems for same-day treatment, and setting expectations with both your team and your patients. Plus, don't miss his clever in-office tricks—like “Teflon tape” codewords—for navigating overly chatty patients while keeping the schedule on track.

Send us a textFeminine energy isn't just for women—it's a vital force within all of us waiting to be understood and embraced. In this deeply moving conversation with authors Rocío Aquino and Angel Orengo, we explore the transformative journey behind their novel "The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses," which serves as both a compelling story and a practical guidebook for inner healing.Rocío shares her deeply personal struggle with forgiveness that sparked their creative journey. While her partner Angel possessed a natural "Teflon" quality when facing life's challenges, Rocío carried emotional heaviness that took decades to release. Their contrasting experiences and shared study of spiritual psychology ultimately inspired them to craft a novel that makes powerful healing techniques accessible to everyone.What makes "The Orchid" truly special is its perfect balance—only 10% focuses on problems while 90% explores practical solutions through the story of five women at a healing retreat. The authors reveal simple yet profound practices anyone can implement immediately, like speaking to yourself as your best friend for just sixty seconds or cultivating gratitude even in difficult moments. These tools create vibrations that expand inner peace and push out insecurity, regardless of your background in energy work.The symbolism behind the title reflects their vision—like the 30,000+ varieties of orchids, each person is beautiful, unique and resilient in their own way. Interestingly, "orchid" derives from the Greek word for testicles, perfectly capturing the book's essence of balancing feminine and masculine energies within everyone. This balance creates true power and healing.Through "The Orchid," Rocío and Angel invite you to experience a complete literary healing retreat at your own pace. Whether you're new to energy healing or a seasoned practitioner, their story offers fresh perspectives and gentle reminders that transformation begins within. Their ultimate goal? To create ripples of self-love that expand outward, helping each reader become "the change they wish to see in the world."Ready to experience this transformative journey yourself? "The Orchid" is available worldwide in both English and Spanish, including an audiobook version for those who prefer listening while driving or during daily activities.www.theorchidbook.comAvailable on Amazon in English and SpanishMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/sky-toes/featherlightLicense code: ZTXJPK8BA5WMLKSF My new novel The Red Magus has recently been published in conjunction with the Unbound Press.

Chris brings decades of sales wisdom with a refreshing blend of humor and authenticity. Whether you're a reluctant entrepreneur or a seasoned salesperson, you'll appreciate Chris's real-world insights on what it really takes to succeed in sales—without the sleaze.Here are some of the key takeaways from Chris Castanes' conversation with Rob Oliver:Sales success starts with learning how to find people to talk to.A full pipeline and consistent networking are essential to growth.Rejection is part of the process—develop “Teflon coating” and keep moving.Toastmasters and public speaking can help introverts build communication confidence.Sales isn't just about product—people buy from people they trust.Building rapport and demonstrating integrity beat pushy tactics every time.Relationship selling means showing up sincerely, not just closing a deal.You're always selling yourself—in business and in life.Humor and resilience can defuse rejection and create memorable moments.“Selling on the approval of others” taps into a powerful psychological motivator.Real-life examples (like Popeye and spinach!) make sales techniques relatable.Listening is more powerful than talking—find the client's real pain point.Be genuinely curious about your client's needs, not just your pitch.Follow up consistently; a client's circumstances can change unexpectedly.Keep multiple solutions “in your quiver” to serve evolving needs.Transitioning to virtual and social media-based sales requires creativity and adaptability.The barrier to entry on social media is low—standing out requires strategy.Your name is your brand—keep it consistent and focused.Avoid diluting your identity with conflicting side hustles.Chris's humor-infused book was a passion project turned powerful teaching tool.You can learn more about Chris Castanes and connect with him through the links below:Website: www.chriscastanes.com Twitter: @ccastanes Instagram: @chriscastanesThanks for listening to the Learning from Smart People Podcast!Subscribe, leave a comment and follow us on social media:Twitter: http://twitter.com/LFSPPodcast Instagram: http://instagram.com/LFSPPodcast Facebook: http://facebook.com/LFSPPodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/lfsppodcast/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imroboliver/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbWV_LuUad7ZWuE9j5D9v-wYou can also use the "Contact" page on the "Learning from Smart People" website:https://www.learningfromsmartpeople.com/contact

Hi from the Darling Downs Radio Club - I'm Secretary, John VK4JPM. This coming weekend, there are two major club activities: Next Saturday, the 10th of May, we have our first annual club foxhunt and BBQ. Well, you have to start somewhere, and in the case of the DDRCI foxhunt, we're starting at Peacehaven Botanic Park on Kuhls Rd in Highfields. Start time of 1030 is when hounds depart for the chase, so you'd want to be in the car park maybe around 1000. Bruce VK4MQ is our hunt-master, and he's mapped out a finish point that will work for both newbies and experienced hands. You won't have to travel more than 15km from the start, and there's going to be plenty of support. If you go to the club website at ddrci.org.au and check the event invitation in the calendar, you'll find loads of hints, maps, DIY options, and just about everything you need except the final location of the fox. Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. One of the changes to modern retailing is the growth of online retail. Yes, we still have the grocery store in the guise of the supermarket and the hardware store that sells lots of corner store items. We have the newer outlets from overseas that let you get groceries, hardware, musical instruments and surprises, all in good old bricks and mortar stores, as they say. We people who enjoy the electronic side of making things have seen a large drop-off of retail outlets, and some of us find it awkward or impossible to get to the nearest store, especially if you live in the regions. This brings me to the amateur radio tradition of having a pile of loot, a box of goodies or a rack of spares colloquially called the junk box. So it was that during the past week, I gathered some material that had been waiting for the opportunity to be attacked by heat and molten solder, and I set forth. I found that I had accumulated a stash of generic UHF plugs, PL259's, and I had a nice run of coax to make some patch leads. Once the eyes were tuned to cutting and trimming the cable ends to the right length, came the thrill of melting solder. That task seemed to go not too badly for the first two ends until I picked up the meter leads to do the mandatory check for shorts or open circuits. That test was past, but what greeted me wasthat the centre pins on both connectors were now lopsided. I have made the discovery that most of this collection of plugs, probably sourced from an Asian vendor, did not have decent insulation but some brown, low melting point plastic substitute. Hopefully, I hadn't lashed out too many pennies in buying this collection of rubbish in thinking I was getting the better quality insulation. A quick look at my nearest dedicated ham radio supplier showed a listing for proper plugs with Teflon insulation, and including postage, they are about $4:00 each. Thank heavens for the specials offered by this retailer. I suppose what is an object lesson from days of yore, is that items which can be salvaged and reused have a quality that is worth utilising. If you have ever wondered why there can be containers filled with electronic and electrical bric-a-brac at your HamFest, then I have just given the reason why. Buying from overseas and especially sourcing generic type items can be fraught with danger. Cable with insulation that breaks down with heating or voltage, fake semiconductors and RF connectors that don't meet specs are some of the many issues you can read about with online shopping. There may be consumer law to protect purchasers in this country, but cheaper items are often a lottery when bought from overseas unless they are so-called A1 by reputation. We can say “let the buyer beware,” but there is no practical recourse when postage to and from countries like the USA can be multiple times the cost of the “bargain”, and the only beneficiary ends up being the local waste facility. I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and that's what I think. How about you?

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 04-24-2025: Dr. Dawn issues an alert about hair growth vitamins containing high doses of biotin that can interfere with important medical tests, explaining how biotin supplementation can cause false readings for thyroid function, troponin, parathyroid hormone, sex hormones, vitamin D, testosterone, PSA, and ferritin tests. Responding to an email about non-stick cookware safety, she examines various ceramic-based technologies claiming to be non-toxic, noting concerns about Teflon alternatives like Thermalon and ScanPan, and recommending cast iron as the safest option, particularly for households with pregnant women. A caller inquires about plant-based diets after hearing a radiation oncologist's claim that all animal products are harmful. Dr. Dawn advocates for a balanced approach rather than extreme positions, suggesting practical strategies for increasing vegetable consumption without laborious food preparation. She discusses counterintuitive findings in cancer research where advanced age can actually reduce cancer risk, explaining how aging cells produce a protein called NUPR1 that makes them iron-deficient and less able to regenerate, potentially offering insights for new therapeutic approaches. A caller asks about Dr. Gundry's claims regarding lectins in foods like almonds and peas, with Dr. Dawn explaining that while lectins are plant defense mechanisms that can be toxic in high amounts, moderate consumption is generally safe because the liver builds additional enzymes to process these compounds and this improves general detoxification. Dr. Dawn clarifies misconceptions about soy products, explaining that fermented options like tempeh have fewer anti-nutrients than raw soybeans (edamame). Tofu while not fermented, undergoes processing that reduces anti-nutrient properties by approximately 90%.

They also cover RFK's push to stop CDC recommendations on fluoride in drinking water, why it matters, and how consumers can protect themselves from hidden sources of fluoride, from Teflon pans to Prozac. The conversation moves into wellness territory, with practical advice on filtering your water, choosing better cookware, and avoiding toxic additives in food and supplements. Other highlights include a new Texas investigation into Kellogg's for lying about toxic food dyes, the decline of Pfizer stock, the VA pushing Ozempic, and tariffs threatening the cheap foreign supplement racket.

Deliberate Leaders Podcast with Allison Dunn

This episode of the Deliberate Leaders Podcast, hosted by Allison Dunn, addresses the significant challenge of dealing with toxic coworkers and their negative impact on productivity and energy levels. Dunn begins by highlighting that this is a widespread issue, noting that over half of their poll respondents had experienced it. She emphasizes that toxic colleagues are more than just annoying; they can drastically reduce team performance, citing Harvard research that suggests a decrease of up to 40%. This is framed as a serious business problem rather than a simple personality clash.The main focus of the episode is to provide five actionable strategies for leaders and individuals to protect their energy while navigating interactions with toxic coworkers, without damaging relationships or compromising their values. These strategies are discussed in detail:•  Strategy number one: Recognize the pattern, not just the person. Dunn explains that toxic behavior often follows predictable patterns, such as constant complaining, credit stealing, gossiping, or sabotage. She advises listeners to document toxic interactions for a week, noting the triggers and the specific patterns observed, such as blame-shifting or information hoarding. She shares an example of a client, Melissa, who discovered that a difficult coworker undermined her only during morning meetings, revealing a pattern of feeling threatened when she presented first. Recognizing this pattern allowed Melissa to prepare accordingly.•  Strategy two: Create conversational boundaries. Dunn points out that toxic behavior often thrives through conversation and reminds listeners that they control half of every interaction. She introduces a technique called "redirect and refocus," suggesting that when a toxic colleague starts complaining or gossiping, the listener should acknowledge their statement briefly and then immediately pivot to a work-related topic. She provides an example: responding with "That sounds challenging. Speaking of challenges, I could use your input on this project deadline". The goal is to gently but firmly steer conversations toward productivity, not to be rude. Dunn notes that after about three redirects, most "energy vampires" will likely seek easier targets.•  Strategy three: Implement the oxygen mask principle. Drawing an analogy to flight safety instructions, Dunn stresses the importance of prioritizing one's own well-being when dealing with toxic coworkers. She recommends scheduling brief "renewal time" on your calendar after draining interactions, even just 15 minutes, to engage in activities like walking, deep breathing, or gratitude exercises. She shares an anecdote about a CEO who maintains a "sanity drawer" with items like dark chocolate, essential oils, and family photos for quick reset rituals.•. Strategy four: Document strategically. Dunn emphasizes that documentation serves not only for HR purposes but also as a daily tool for managing difficult dynamics. She advises listeners to follow up verbal conversations with email summaries that clearly outline discussed points and responsibilities, such as "As we discussed, you'll handle X while I focus on Y. Please let me know if I've misunderstood anything". This practice promotes accountability, offers the benefit of the doubt, and creates a paper trail to prevent gaslighting and confusion.•. Strategy five: Practice intentional disengagement. Dunn states that sometimes the most effective response is no response. She advises listeners to evaluate whether engaging with toxic behavior aligns with their goals. If not, she recommends using polite but brief responses that do not escalate conflict or encourage further engagement, which she terms "pleasant neutrality". She shares a client's description of this as "being Teflon—letting it slide off without sticking". Dunn clarifies that this is a strategy for energy conservation, not avoidance.In conclusion, Dunn reiterates that while you cannot control toxic colleagues, you can control the energy you give them. She asserts that successful leaders have mastered the art of protecting their energy while remaining effective, not necessarily having fewer difficult people in their lives.

Can you build muscle naturally as you age? In this week's Fitness Friday episode, I talk with fitness expert Kris Gethin, as he reveals that declining testosterone may be the hidden culprit behind your struggle to maintain muscle mass after 40. Most middle-aged fitness enthusiasts who maintain impressive physiques rely heavily on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), but Kris shares a completely natural approach that works. We discuss surprising testosterone-killers lurking in your daily environment—from cooking with Teflon to the metal fillings in your teeth—and provide practical, scientifically-backed strategies to boost your hormone production naturally. We also dive into cutting-edge biohacking techniques like red light therapy, ice baths, and even how dental work dramatically improved Kris's own hormone levels after suffering from long COVID.  Kris Gethin, a renowned transformation expert and entrepreneur, has revolutionized the fitness industry with his no-nonsense, results-driven approach to bodybuilding and coaching. As the founder of Unmatched Supps and former CEO of Kaged Muscle, he has established himself as a pioneering force in the supplement industry while developing the innovative DTP (Dramatic Transformation Principle) training method. Through his podcast, he shares evidence-based fitness insights with a global audience, drawing from his extensive experience coaching elite athletes and celebrities. What we discuss:  Natural testosterone optimization vs. HRT dependency  Environmental testosterone killers  Compound exercises that stimulate hormone production Red light therapy benefits and application techniques How ice baths and saunas can elevate testosterone levels Unexpected connection between dental health and hormone production Natural alternatives to Ozempic and GLP-1 medications for fat loss Supplements that support testosterone (vitamin D with K2, creatine, progesterone, DHEA) Blood sugar stabilization techniques for maintaining muscle and losing fat Thank you to our sponsor: AquaTru: Get 20% off any purifier at aquatru.com with code HUSTLE Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off  TruNiagen: Head over to truniagen.com and use code HUSTLE20 to get $20 off any purchase over $100.

PFAS (Forever Chemicals) in Non-Stick Pans: How They Harm Your Heart With David Barrett

One out of every five deaths in the US is caused by heart disease, and the forever chemicals hiding in your cookware could be contributing to this epidemic. David Barrett, owner of Chef's Foundry, reveals how PFAS chemicals in non-stick cookware raise cholesterol, increase blood pressure, disrupt thyroid function, slow metabolism, and even increase risk of cardiovascular events. These forever chemicals don't just stay on your pans—they incorporate into your cell membranes and accumulate in your body fat, making them nearly impossible to eliminate. Even one small scratch on a non-stick surface can release 9,000 toxic particles into your food, while heavy scratching releases up to 2 million particles. David shares the shocking DuPont scandal behind Teflon, the truth about "greenwashed" non-stick cookware, and why those flu-like symptoms after cooking might actually be "Teflon flu." Plus, learn which safe cookware options actually work and how to choose between ceramic, stainless steel, and cast iron alternatives.   "You really do need to avoid any cookware that has forever chemicals in them. It's not just cookware; they're found in clothing, cosmetics, tap water." ~ David Barrett   In This Episode: - David's story and why he started a cookware company - Common toxins found in conventional cookware - The link between PFAS and cardiovascular disease - Tips for mitigating exposure to Teflon - The problem with "greenwashed" non-toxic cookware - David's cookware recommendations and preferred materials - Issues with cast iron cookware - Benefits of P600 cookware with ILAG coating - Dangers of enamel-coated cookware - David's final advice For more information, visit https://www.myersdetox.com    Ready to detox heavy metals?

Tebilat Kelim- Do Plastic or Teflon Utensils Require Immersion in a Mikveh?

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour

The Torah obligation of Tebilat Kelim – immersing new utensils – applies only to metal utensils, and the Sages extended this obligation to glass utensils. Utensils made from other materials, such as plastic, nylon, rubber and enamel, do not require immersion at all. This is the ruling of Hacham Ovadia Yosef, in Halichot Olam (vol. 7). The Halachic authorities debate the status of a Teflon pot with respect to Tebilat Kelim. On the one hand, since the pot is made primarily of metal, and the Teflon is just a thin layer of nylon covering the pot, it seemingly should require immersion like other metal utensils. On the other hand, people who acquire Teflon pots are specifically interested in the Teflon, which prevents the food from sticking to the surface of the utensil, and thus perhaps the Teflon should be regarded as the primary material, such that the pot should not require Tebila. As mentioned, the Aharonim (later authorities) debate this question. In light of the difference of opinion in this regard, Teflon utensils should be immersed in a Mikveh, but without a Beracha. Summary: Utensils made from materials other than metal and glass do not require Tebila. Metal utensils lined with Teflon should be immersed, but without a Beracha.

  If I see that Prevagen commercial one more time, I just might scream. But instead, let's talk about supplements, aluminum, and other dementia myths. We're going to separate fact from fiction and debunk those myths.   I'm Dr.Vickie Petz Kasper and I want to help you make changes that make a difference. Healthy Looks Great On You podcast takes you to many medical school so you can learn the power of lifestyle medicine. If you're ready to take control of your health, you're in the right  place. Whether you're focused on prevention or you're trying to manage a condition. I'll give you practical steps to start your own journey toward better health because healthy looks great on you. This is episode 156, Supplements, Aluminum, and Other Dementia Myths.  If you're a regular listener of this podcast and you listened closely last week, you know that I planned to talk about genetics today, but Sally, Steve and Lea, Greg, John and Sherry, and Barbara really got to me.  You don't know them? You must not watch TV at all. Those stupid commercials air every few minutes.  In this episode, we're going to bust some myths, but also amp up our game in the discernment category. We're gonna discuss Prevagen, aluminum, and their relationship to dementia, as well  as some other misunderstandings. But wait, Sally is a nurse, isn't she? Says so right on the commercial, a flight nurse. Yeah, so she should know better. You see, she said she had a fear that she wouldn't be able to keep up and she wanted all the boost that she could get. Okay, let's stop right here because fear is a fantastic motivator when it comes to sales pitches.  People make purchases based on emotion. So this flight nurse who has all these medical resources available to her, heard from a friend.  Listen, friends don't let friends take scammy supplements.  I will give her some credit because she said she read the clinical study on it and it had good reviews.  I'm not sure which study she's referring to, but I did find a graph that has one bar going way up and the label says, In clinical trials, Prevagen has been shown to improve short term memory in people who were, and get this, normal or mildly cognitively impaired. Well, which is it? Because those two things are pretty different, aren't they? But here's an even better question. Compared to what? You see, the company's own study showed that a placebo, which in this case was a flour pill instead of a sugar pill, was equally effective at improving the nine cognitive skills that they looked at, including memory. So you can either pay 40 to 90 a month on Prevagen. Or you could just do something like, eat a peanut, and voila! Your memory will improve. Just like Steve and Leah. They live in the North Pole, and they're retired educators, but probably not science educators. And here's how they got started taking Prevagen. Steve said he saw one of those incredibly annoying commercials and thought, That makes sense.  Does it though?  You tell me. The active ingredient is  aquaporin. It's a calcium binding protein, and calcium is definitely linked to brain health and memory. Calcium is super important in communication between nerve cells in the brain. So it's gotta work, right? Well, here's what the announcer says. Can a protein originally found in jellyfish improve your memory? Our scientists say yes. Researchers have discovered a protein that actually supports healthier brain function. It's the breakthrough in a supplement called Prevagen.  Their scientists say yes, but sounds fishy to me. Specifically it's made from jelly fish that luminesce. Now, these are some fascinating creatures, and honestly, I did not even know they existed until this summer. I went to the west coast to help my son move into a new apartment and we traveled down to Monterey Bay. There's an aquarium there that has all these luminescent jellyfish and one of them was neon red. It was one of the most fascinating things that I've ever seen. But what does that have to do with memory?  Well, you might have a bright future if you're a Caribbean box jellyfish. Turns out they're capable of learning even though they don't have a brain. And what exactly can a jellyfish learn you ask? Well, they can learn to dodge obstacles, which can come in handy if you're running an obstacle course, I guess.  Nah.  Now, Barbara is a retired librarian from Michigan. Five years ago, she says she had a lot going on. And she saw the Prevagen commercial. And she started taking it. And she noticed that her memory was better, and people tell her that she doesn't miss a beat.  I mean, she's dodging obstacles like a professional jellyfish. I guess the bottom line is, those commercials work. But look, we don't have a lot in common with these jellyfish. They don't even have a brain . But they do have 24 eyes and that's pretty weird.  But isn't it the number one supplement for memory recommended by pharmacists?  Maybe, but I couldn't verify that. But John is a pharmacist and he does a paid testimonial for Prevagen on the commercials. And he says he went ahead and gave it a try. And he feels like it's really helping, so he recommends it to his customers, family, and friends as a safe product to try.  That's not how this works. In medicine, we don't recommend things because we want to give it a try or because we feel like it helps. But I imagine a lot of people are listening to John because consumers have spent more than a hundred and sixty five million dollars on this product in the last ten years. And it's a hoax. Maybe you noticed that their commercials changed recently. Well, that's because a complaint was filed back in 2017 with the Federal Trade Commission. Because studies showed that this protein doesn't even cross the blood brain barrier and it's probably digested in your stomach and never goes anywhere else.  This was the beginning of a  seven year legal battle that ended last month. And there are two claims that got them in hot water. One of them was that Prevagen reduces memory problems associated with aging. Because it  doesn't.  The other one they said is that it was clinically shown to reduce memory problems associated with aging.  Now their website looks a little different since this case was settled last month, and it doesn't even make a claim that it helps anything. They can't because it doesn't work. Now, you may hate big pharma, but I can promise you that if you could milk some protein out of a jellyfish and make a medicine out of it, they'd have done it. It's not like there's a shortage of jellyfish.   But on the Prevagen website, they list three studies showing that it's safe. Not effective, safe. They're labeled Safety Study 1, Safety Study 2, and Safety Study 3. But nothing to indicate that it does anything.  They don't even pretend that it treats or cures anything. But, they do continue to aggressively market to an aging population who is concerned about memory loss.  If you're going to forget anything, forget Prevagen.  Here's what they say now, I really feel like my memory has improved since I started taking Prevagen, or my wife thinks my memory is getting better.   Greg is my favorite. He's got a lot of gigs and is the most accomplished and likable paid testimonial in the game. He's a motivational speaker so he has that edge. He noticed in his mid fifties that he was losing a bit, like walking into a room and forgetting why he came. Which, by the way, can be normal. And if you missed my episode on the difference between normal aging and early signs of dementia, I'll put a link in the show notes.  But he's been taking Prevagen for three years, and it's helped him tremendously. Now, I'm not sure what it helps him with because he admits he has a very healthy lifestyle. And people tell him that he has a memory like an elephant. Guess they didn't know that aquaporin comes from jellyfish.  Now, maybe you've taken it and now you're just feeling a little silly. I get it. People put soap under their covers to try to help with restless legs. At least that's cheap. And desperate people do desperate things. Once I had tennis elbow really bad. I never played tennis, but I was desperate for relief. I ended up getting one of those copper bracelets and wearing it. Well, it's kind of cute, but it didn't work either. So I think we could all use some information. So let's go to mini medical school.  Today we're going to talk about medical research. Here's the deal. Our bodies are incredibly complex.   So there are some experiments in nature that you could design to measure things or to prove this or that. But when it comes to the human body, we are quite varied in our responses to different things. So, a lot of times there's not clear evidence to prove things. But you can't just make stuff up. Well, I mean, you can, but the pharmaceutical industry is required to prove that their products are safe and effective.  It's not a perfect system, but have you ever tried to actually read a package insert? A lot of times it will say that a certain percentage of people had nausea or headache or even something more serious like a seizure.  But then the question becomes, would they have had the same thing even if they hadn't taken whatever drug you're reading about?  But they're required to report anything that comes up during the trial.  And if you look at the absolute numbers, it might say something like 9 percent of people had nausea, and if you look at the placebo group, well, 9 percent of them had nausea, too.  But here's the deal, with the supplement industry, they don't have to do all of this. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act was passed in 1994. And they are exempt from having to prove claims that vitamins and supplements even work.  So the best advice I can give you is listen closely to what they're saying.  Just because somebody saw an ad and feels like something is helping, doesn't mean it works.  And in general, be careful when looking at medical research. It's complicated. Traditionally, we consider the double blinded placebo controlled randomized trial to be the gold standard. It gives us the most reliable data, and That means that the person taking the medication or placebo nor the researcher who's evaluating the data about the medication or placebo knows which one they're taking. And that allegedly prevents what we call bias and helps us sort out the placebo effect. But even that's not perfect. We also have to look at the power of the study. Typically, a well designed study has lots and lots of people in it. It's more meaningful if you look at that versus a handful of people. It's reported as the N, which logically stands for number. So if you see a study of about 400 people in the grand scheme of things, that's not really very big.  Often what researchers do is take a bunch of smaller studies and clump them together and try to increase the validity. We call that process a meta analysis. And it's not perfect science either. Listen, science is hard. Research is complicated and math is a challenge for a lot of us, even researchers. Apparently, some really smart people are not exempt from this. Recently, there was a paper published that showed toxic levels of microplastics associated with those black cooking utensils you use to protect the Teflon on your pots and pans. It set off a firestorm of TikTok videos to help people get rid of those things.  But guess what?  They made a mathematical error and missed a decimal point. So what was actually being released was nowhere near the toxic level. But it was too late for a lot of poor soup spoons.   Another problem we encounter in studies is extrapolating data from animal studies to humans. And I see a lot of reference articles to some reputable sources, but they're looking at things like the effect of some chemical in gigantic doses on some little animal, and that can cause misleading information.  In the 1960s, rabbits were injected with high levels of aluminum, and they got lesions in their brain that look very similar to the lesions that people with Alzheimer's get in their brains. So they started looking at aluminum as a cause for dementia. And I'm old enough to remember feeling a little bit of caution drinking out of an aluminum can.  Turns out, they did find aluminum in those plaques in the Alzheimer's brains of people. And that's scary. But hold on. Healthy brains also contain aluminum.  And despite looking for a link, there's no evidence that aluminum from cans or pots and pans or deodorant or antacids causes Alzheimer's.  So now that we've busted the myth that a jellyfish protein doesn't do anything besides waste your money, and that your pots and pans aren't out to get you, Let's talk about some more somber misinformation that people believe about dementia. There are three falsehoods I want to address. Number one is that only older people get dementia. Number two is there's nothing that can be done about dementia. And unfortunately, number three is that dementia is always preventable, because it's not.  If you've been following this series on dementia, you know that the number one risk factor for developing dementia is age. But that doesn't mean it only affects people over the age of 65. Early onset Alzheimer's can affect people in their 50s, 40s, and rarely even in their 30s. The symptoms are the same, but are often misdiagnosed. You can imagine partly that's because it's very rare and unexpected. It's also even more tragic because it's now affecting someone who may be still parenting children at home or maybe providing the family's income.  And it can feel very isolating for the person affected and their family. And let me just pause right here and say that if you or your loved one has dementia, regardless of their age, there is so much value in support groups.  I think this is so important that if you cannot find a support group in your area, I would challenge you to start your own. I'm sure you could get some help from the Alzheimer's Foundation or the Alzheimer's Association. But if your life is affected by someone with dementia, I urge you right now to Google Alzheimer's support groups in your area.  If you're worried about yourself or someone you love, it's important to see a doctor. Because if anyone tells you that nothing can be done, they are falling for a myth.  The truth is that there are treatments available and lots of research is being done with new treatments in the pipeline. The earlier you get a diagnosis, the more opportunity you have to slow progression. Not only that, there are some business aspects that you need to tend to to protect your family.  Lastly, I need to tell you that dementia is not always preventable.  I'm going to put some links in the show notes to all the episodes I've been doing on this series, and I stand by the fact that lifestyle matters. A lot. But even the most promising studies claim that 40 percent of dementia is preventable with lifestyle. And that means 60 percent isn't.  Remember, I told you you needed to listen closely when paying attention to medical research. Nevertheless, don't you want to do all you can to protect your brain health? Lifestyle matters. The first recommendation is a healthy diet, physical fitness, social connectedness, stress management, avoiding tobacco and alcohol, and routinely getting a good night's sleep.  And I have some exciting news for you about sleep. I'm going to do an entire series in the month of February about restorative sleep. I have a couple of resources on my website that you're gonna want to snag. Just go to www healthy looks great on you.com and you can find those. I've got an upcoming series of live webinars to help you with this as well. Now that you know how to critically evaluate scientific medical studies, let's take a moment to focus on a study that was released in June of 2024 by Dr. Dean Ornish, and it looked at the effects of intensive lifestyle changes on the progression of mild cognitive impairment or early dementia due to Alzheimer's. Now, this study was randomized and it was a clinical trial and that gives it some validity. And here's what they did. They took people with early Alzheimer's and randomly assigned them into two groups. One group implemented intense lifestyle changes, like the stuff I promote on this podcast. And they did it for almost six months. And the two groups were similar in their performance on standardized cognitive tests at the beginning of the study.  They also had blood work done to measure biomarkers of Alzheimer's. Specifically, these are things in your plasma. And after 20 weeks, they compared the intervention group with the no intervention group, and they found improvement in their performance on cognitive tests, as well as these biomarkers in their bloodstream. In addition, their gut microbiome improved, and that's super exciting. Now, let's think critically. There were 51 people in this study, and that's not really very many. But still, the results showed that eating minimally processed, plant based, whole food, doing moderate aerobic exercise and resistance training, managing stress through meditation, breathing, and stretching, and attending support groups made a difference and the difference was statistically significant.  71 percent of patients in the intervention group either improved or at least they didn't decline and all of the patients in the control group either stayed the same or got worse. Now I don't know about you but even though this is a small study that's pretty encouraging. I'll put a link to the study as well as an article about it from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine in the show notes. And I'll send it out to my email list. So, even though all dementia isn't considered preventable,  let's do what we can to be healthy. Because healthy looks great on you.        The information contained in this podcast is for educational purposes only and is not considered to be a substitute for medical advice.

The Accidental Discovery That Gave Us ‘Forever Chemicals'When it comes to PFAS chemicals—known as “forever chemicals”—we often hear that they're used in nonstick coatings, flame retardants, and stain repellants. But those examples can hide the truth of just how widespread their use has been in modern life.A new season of the “Hazard NJ” podcast looks at the origin story of PFAS chemicals, and the accidental discovery of PTFE—aka Teflon—in a DuPont laboratory in southern New Jersey. “Hazard NJ” host Jordan Gass-Pooré joins guest host Kathleen Davis to talk about the history of PFAS, their effect on the environment and health of New Jersey residents, and work towards cleaning up the PFAS mess.A Play About Pregnancy Inspired By Mushroom ResearchPeople are finding all sorts of uses for mushrooms these days, but we're going to focus on two of them: how scientists are using them in robots and how playwrights are using them in theater. A few weeks ago, SciFri producer and host of our “Universe of Art” podcast D Peterschmidt moderated a panel at the Science In Theater Festival in Brooklyn, New York.The festival is put on by a company called Transforma Theatre that stages science-inspired plays. Each year, they pair playwrights with scientists to make short plays that explore the research focus of the scientist.Director and playwright Hannah Simms was paired with Dr. Andrew Adamatzky, a professor of unconventional computing, who's learning how to connect various parts of nature, like mushrooms, to computers, and consulted with Hannah during the writing process. The play, called “Fruiting Body,” is about a fungal-computing scientist who, while pregnant, creates a fetal heart monitor powered by mycelium, which turns out to be sentient. While the concept is definitely science fiction, it is based on real unconventional mushroom research.D talks with Hannah to learn why she wanted to explore her pregnancy through the lens of mushroom research. They're also joined by Dr. Anand Mishra, a research associate at Cornell University's department  of mechanical and aerospace engineering, who explains how he helped build a robot that's powered by king oyster mushroom mycelium.Transcript for this segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
