Rex Heuermann, a former public official, faces serious charges linked to the unsolved Long Island Serial Killer case. The charges were brought forward due to an exhaustive investigation that utilized advanced forensic techniques and leveraged digital footprints Heuermann left behind.   The initial link to Heuermann was made through comprehensive cell tower data analysis, connecting him to calls made to victims' families using what has been referred to as the Barthelemy Phone. Suspicious activities on this phone, including calls to victims' families and unusual cessation of activity, coincided with Heuermann's travel schedule.   Further investigation revealed Heuermann's illicit use of burner phones and online accounts under fictitious names. These were primarily used to engage with sex workers and conduct disturbing searches related to sadistic, torture-related, and child pornography. Additionally, these burner accounts were used to track developments in the investigation into the serial murders, revealing Heuermann's attempt to stay one step ahead of the investigators.   In a significant discovery, a burner email account linked to Heuermann, registered under the pseudonym "Thomas Hawk," was found to have conducted thousands of searches about sex workers, disturbing pornography, and ongoing serial killer investigations.   Heuermann's residence has also been implicated in the investigation. Forensic investigations revealed that DNA samples from his residence matched those found on female hairs on three of the victims, effectively linking the crimes directly to his household. These DNA profiles were matched with a high degree of certainty, excluding most of the North American population.   Another damning piece of evidence was the recovery of a male hair from one of the victim's burlap wrappings. Advanced DNA analysis matched this hair to Heuermann, further solidifying his involvement in the crimes.   The evidence indicates that Heuermann not only had direct contact with the victims but also went to great lengths to evade detection, including using burner phones, fake online accounts, and careful monitoring of the ongoing investigation.   Rex Heuermann is in custody, facing multiple charges related to the Long Island Serial Killer case. If convicted, he will likely spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole. As the case unfolds, it serves as a stark reminder of the cruel capacity of individuals and the vital importance of ongoing advancements in forensic and investigative techniques.

What I Discuss With Dr. Kara Fitzgerald About How You Reverse Your Biological Age Through Lifestyle and Diet Choices Dr. Fitzgerald and I discuss how there is a link between aging and chronic disease, and it has everything to do with epigenetics and their effect on aging. Biological age looks at specific patterns of a key epigenetic mark called DNA methylation. These DNA methylation patterns can reliably predict how fast our body is aging. Methylation is as essential to our bodies as breathing and is happening in our bodies and within our cells all of the time. Therefore, if you can give yourself the DNA methylations of a younger you, you can reset your biological aging process. She provides key ways to do this throughout our interview that are based on her years of experience backed by clinical trials.  Why do most adults spend the last 16 years of their lives suffering from chronic conditions and taking multiple medications? Why reversing biological age is key. Why it's epigenetics and not your genetics that determines your level of health and age How is epigenetic expression greatly influenced by DNA methylation? How do our diet and lifestyle choices impact DNA methylation? The results of her research and a groundbreaking clinical trial showed a reduction of biological age by three years. Why it is our daily choices and routines that add years to your life or reduce them Her diet and lifestyle program which increases healthspan and reduces your biological age. And so much more.

Prescription painkillers are vital for proper medical treatment for patients who endure chronic or acute pain. Opioids in particular are commonly prescribed due to their effectiveness in treating pain, however these drugs are known to be highly addictive and can have terrible effects if overused or abused. Opioids such as Vicodin, morphine, and fentanyl are known to be addictive and can lead to severe consequences when mistreated. How these drugs and the addiction it causes affect the brain is not yet fully understood, however every year we learn more and come closer to painting a full picture of the way the brain is affected by these drugs. Recent studies suggest opioid consumption leads to changes in DNA and DNA storage systems that have direct, long-lasting effects on brain circuitry as well as behavior. These DNA modifications, specifically those located in brain cells, have spawned an increasing amount of research which has led to the development of the field of neuroepigenetics. The field of neuroepigenetics looks at these DNA modifications that have been caused by life choices and the environment, and how they affect cell structure and function. These studies will potentially give us a better understanding of how and why opioids cause the effects they do, and hopefully inspire ways in which they can still be used without their detrimental effects.

Porcupine is a molecular tagging system—a way to tag physical objects with pieces of DNA called molecular bits, or molbits for short. These DNA tags then can be rapidly sequenced on an Oxford Nanopore MinION device without any need for library preparation. In this episode, Katie Doroschak explains how Porcupine works—how molbits are designed and prepared, and how they are directly recognized by the software without an intermediate basecalling step.

Dr. David Weiner is Executive Vice President, Director of the Vaccine & Immunotherapy Center, and the W.W. Smith Charitable Trust Professor in Cancer Research at The Wistar Institute. He is also Emeritus Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. In the lab, David and his colleagues are creating drugs using the same DNA codes and signals that our bodies use naturally. The drugs they are creating are natural compounds that can be given to people to prevent them from getting sick or to help them be healthier. One area of David’s research focuses on developing DNA vaccines to prevent illness. These DNA vaccines are designed to create specific proteins that trigger the immune system to respond to fight particular pathogens. David and his wife enjoy reading and going on walks with their dog Ruby. Ruby is a Shih Tzu Yorkie mix that they rescued after a recent hurricane in Puerto Rico. David received his B.S. in biology from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, his M.S. in biology from the University of Cincinnati, and his  Ph.D. in developmental biology from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. Afterwards, David worked as a research fellow in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania before joining the faculty there. He held a joint position as Assistant Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at The Wistar Institute and the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine from 1990-1993. David returned to The Wistar Institute in 2016 to accept his current positions. Among his many awards and honors, David has been elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the International Society for Vaccines. He has also received the NIH Director’s Transformative Research Award, the Vaccine Industry Excellence Award for Best Academic Research Team, the prestigious Hilleman Lectureship from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, a Stone Family Award from Abramson Cancer Center for his groundbreaking work on DNA vaccines for cancer immune therapy, and the Scientific Achievement Award from Life Sciences Pennsylvania. In addition, David was named a "Top 20 Translational Researchers" in 2016 by Nature Biotechnology.

Finally getting to the route of your SIBO symptoms is usually more than just heading to the doctor for a blood test. There are so many other factors and indicators at play! From DNA tests and gene markers to vitamin deficiencies and dehydration, a little exploration into your health can go a long way. Continuing my conversation with Dr. Megan Taylor, in this episode, we’re talking about how to help manage your SIBO symptoms. Treating SIBO can involve a number of different approaches, starting with, but not limited to, completing one of those ultra-popular DNA tests. These DNA tests not only give you ancestry information, but they’re also full of gene indicators and variants that will help you figure out your current health problems, and insight into whether you’ll be more susceptible to certain conditions in the future. SIBO patients can have a hard time breaking down, digesting, and utilizing the food and drinks we consume. We talk about what the impact of being unable to break down stress neurotransmitters has on our body - as it’s often more subtle than you might think. Vitamins and minerals should be supplemented, for quite a lot of the population, but in particular for SIBO patients. We should be looking at including extra B vitamins and iron into our daily routine. Often, and because of the way SIBO presents itself, there might be a worry of having too many B vitamins in our system - but current research shows that the body is able to expel what extra it has with no impact on the system. SIBO patients might find that they’re chronically thirsty and, even though they drink plenty of water every day, their thirst is real and constant. This is due to a disconnect within the adrenal glands, and Megan recommends using colorful sea salt in water a few times a day to help out sodium levels. Finally, Megan shares how coffee impacts the adrenal glands of SIBO patients and whether or not we should be drinking coffee every day. Current research indicates that, in moderation, coffee is actually good for us… but does that apply when you have SIBO? Do you drink coffee every day? How do you supplement your vitamins and minerals? Have you ever taken a DNA test like 23andme? In This Episode: What gene variants will make you more or less susceptible to certain conditions Why SIBO patients have a hard time breaking down stress neurotransmitters and what impact this has What high B vitamin levels can indicate for SIBO patients What vitamins and supplements you should take when you have SIBO How much water SIBO patients should drink every day Why everyone should be including extra trace minerals in their water What the connection between coffee and your adrenal glands is   Quotes: “With a b12 deficiency, you end up not having as much cell division happening, so you end up with bigger cells because cells haven’t been able to go through the division process.” (9:49) “Many SIBO patients have adrenal and salt balance issues in our bodies. Our adrenal glands are helpful for regulating salt in our blood. And that can contribute to hydration and not being able to hold onto our water.” (16:03) “All the research out there is telling us that coffee in moderation, just like alcohol in moderation, can actually be really helpful. There’s a lot of antioxidants, among other things, in coffee.” (19:13) Links Find Dr. Megan Taylor Online | Facebook Join the SIBO SOS 2019 Speaker Series Learn more about SIBO SOS Online | Facebook Join the SIBO SOS Facebook Community   Check out the full episode post here Keep up with everything SIBO SOS™ here Follow Shivan on Facebook | Twitter | Vimeo Join the SIBO SOS™ Facebook Community Get access to the complete SIBO SOS™ course catalog

Want to live longer? Us too. Steven Gundry, M.D., is here to tell us how to do just that. As a heart surgeon and best-selling author, and author of the new book The Longevity Paradox: How to Die Young at a Ripe Old Age, Dr. Gundry is doing what it takes to live a long, healthy life. When he was on the mbg podcast last February, he talked about avoiding lectins, grains, and sugar—all tentpoles to his New York Times best-selling book The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in “Healthy Foods That Cause Disease and Weight Gain. Now, he’s back with even more insight on bettering our health and debunking the many myths of longevity. At the core of our conversation is the microbiome. In his practice in California, Dr. Gundry has been seeing what he calls “superolds” or people living beyond 100 years old. He’s found the common denominator in these individuals is a diverse, healthy microbiome. “It’s actually the microbiome, and its interface with the wall of your gut that will determine what happens to you,” Dr. Gundry shared. While it may seem genetics determine our health and longevity, he pointed out that our genome only plays about 6 percent into what’s going to happen to us and about 94 percent is related to our lifestyle: the food we eat and the people we’re surrounded by. In simple terms, it means we can do something to change the trajectory of our health. On his list for how to live to 100 and beyond is getting enough Vitamin D. “People with the highest vitamin D levels have the longest telomeres,” he explained. These DNA-protein structures protect our chromosomes and the longest ones are the most telling of our longevity. Unfortunately, there’s a high chance you’re not getting enough as 80 percent of Southern Californians are Vitamin D deficient (that says a lot). Dr. Gundry pointed out that it can take 40,000 IU a day of Vitamin D to raise someone’s Vitamin D levels, which he says is vital to our health. This episode will leave you with more knowledge about what’s going on in your gut and inspire you to make changes that could add years on your life.

Had one of these DNA tests to optimise your diet & fitness? I have. These DNA testing kits are now everywhere and promise big things. To test athletic potential, to optimise diet, training & supplements, and more. But what does the science say, is there legitimacy in the claims? Do we know much about DNA right now, and what our genes say about us? And where does it sit on the ethical spectrum, telling people some of this data…

Complexes containing plasmid DNA, transferrin-polylysine conjugates, and polylysine-conjugated peptides derived from the N-terminal sequence of the influenza virus hemagglutinin subunit HA-2 have been used for the transfer of luciferase or beta-galactosidase marker genes to K562 cells, HeLa cells, and BNL CL.2 hepatocytes. These DNA complexes mimic the entry of viruses into cells, as they contain functions for (i) the packaging of the nucleic acid with polylysine, (ii) the attachment to the cell and receptor-mediated endocytosis with transferrin as a ligand, and (iii) the release from endosomes by using membrane-disrupting influenza peptides. The presence of these influenza peptide conjugates in the DNA complexes renders the complexes active in membrane disruption in a liposome leakage assay and results in a substantial augmentation of the transferrin-polylysine-mediated gene transfer.
