In this episode of The Pediatric Pharmacist Review, we explore the phenomenon of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and its relevance to children, adolescents, and families. Our guest, Tim Horton, is a seasoned psychiatric nurse‑practitioner (APRN, CNP) and founder of PeopleFirst Clinic in Woodbury, Minnesota, where he specializes in holistic, medication‑management and therapy‑integrated care for youth and adults. With his unique background in pediatric mental health, patient‑centered approaches, and collaborative provider work, Tim brings deep insight into how biological and environmental factors converge in seasonal depression—and what practical actions caregivers and clinicians can take to mitigate its impact. Key Discussion Points: Biological & Environmental Contributors: We unpack how changes in daylight exposure, circadian rhythm shifts, neurotransmitter variations (serotonin, melatonin), and geographic/seasonal factors contribute to SAD in children and teens. Lifestyle & Environmental Interventions: Tim and I discuss actionable strategies such as structured light‑exposure (dawn simulators, 10,000 lux boxes), daily outdoor activity, consistent sleep schedules, and nutritional supports (timing of meals, nutrient‑dense foods, healthy fats) to reduce symptom severity. Treatment Options & Efficacy: We review standard of care for SAD—starting with behavioral and lifestyle measures, then progressing to light therapy and pharmacologic treatment (SSRIs, SNRIs, augmentation) when needed, including considerations unique to pediatric populations. Vitamin D and Seasonal Depression: We examine the evidence linking vitamin D deficiency with increased SAD risk, discuss screening thresholds in younger patients, supplementation strategies, and how this fits into a broader preventive mindset. Preventive Measures Ahead of Winter: Tim outlines a pre‑winter readiness plan—adjusting indoor lighting, optimizing outdoor daylight exposure, establishing routine exercise, reinforcing healthy diet patterns, and monitoring early warning signs for a proactive response. Misconceptions and Under‑Recognition: We address common myths—such as SAD only occurring in extreme northern latitudes, or that “it's just the blues” and will self‑resolve—highlighting how under‑recognition in pediatric settings can delay helpful intervention.

Girlfriend, maybe you've been struggling with disordered eating for decades and you don't want to put your life on hold to go into a full-blown treatment facility. Maybe you have kids at home, aging parents to care for, or a career you can't walk away from. Or maybe you don't even know what options are available, so you just stay stuck thinking you'll manage it all by yourself. Girl, you weren't meant to do this alone. In this episode, host Lindsey Nichol breaks down the 6 different levels of eating disorder treatment and care - from outpatient support to acute medical stabilization - so you can understand what's available and what might be best for YOUR unique situation and life circumstances. Lindsey shares her own treatment journey through IOP and day treatment, and why finding the right level of care that fits your life is so important. Whether you're a busy mom, working woman, caregiver, or someone who simply can't leave home for residential treatment, this episode will help you understand all your options - including recovery coaching as a personalized support option. You deserve a life free from the chains of disordered eating. And it starts with knowing what treatment options are out there. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The 6 Levels of Eating Disorder Treatment: Level 1: Outpatient Care What it is: Weekly sessions with a care team while living at home Who it's for: Those deemed medically stable who need ongoing support What's included: Dietitian, therapist, medical doctor, support groups Best for: Maintaining school, work, family life while getting treatment Level 2: Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) What it is: Multiple sessions per week in specialized settings Where it happens: Treatment centers or hospitals What's included: Group therapy, individual therapy, structured programming Lindsey's experience: This is where she spent the majority of her recovery Level 3: Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) / Day Treatment What it is: 5-6 days per week, 6-8 hours per day Structure: More intensive than outpatient, includes meals and therapies What happens: You return home in the evenings Lindsey's experience: Combined with IOP while in school - included therapies and support groups Level 4: Residential Treatment What it is: 24-hour care and supervision (inpatient experience) Who it's for: Those medically stable but requiring intensive support Where it happens: Medical hospitals, centers, or homelike facilities Structure: Full-time structured environment with comprehensive care Level 5: Inpatient Hospitalization What it is: Most appropriate for high-intensity medical/psychiatric needs Structure: 24-hour medical psychiatric facility Who it's for: Those not responding to other treatments, experiencing self-harm, severe depression, or needing intensive medical oversight Level 6: Acute Medical Stabilization What it is: The highest level of critical care for eating disorders Who it's for: Those medically unstable due to severity or medical complications Primary focus: Physical stabilization before moving to other treatment levels Plus: Recovery Coaching as a Treatment Option What it is: One-on-one virtual support for guided accountability and actionable recovery steps Who it's for: Those who can't or won't go into residential but need support How it works: Weekly sessions focused on action, not diagnosis Can be layered: Works alongside therapy, dietitian, and medical care Key Takeaways: ✨ Treatment is personalized - what works for someone else may not work for you, and that's okay ✨ You don't have to choose residential - there are multiple levels of care that allow you to stay home ✨ Recovery is NOT black and white - you can get support at various levels based on your life circumstances ✨ You weren't meant to do this alone - even if you can't go to residential, you need SOME level of support ✨ Everyone's recovery is their own - your journey is unique and valid regardless of which level of care you choose ✨ Recovery coaching is a valid option - especially when layered with other care team members ✨ You owe you, sister - putting yourself first isn't selfish, it's necessary ✨ More options exist now - compared to years ago, there are so many more treatment options available Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "You deserve a life that's free from the chains of disordered eating" "Maybe you don't even know what options are available for you, so you just stay here thinking you're gonna manage it all by yourself" "Everyone's recovery is your recovery. Your journey is your journey" "What's best for you might not be best for me. What worked for me might not work for someone else" "You weren't meant to do life alone. You definitely weren't meant to do the hard things alone" "You owe you, sister" "It's not black and white. There's so many other options" "What matters is that you're standing up for you" "You are worth it. You deserve it" "Everyone else in your life is gonna benefit when you can start putting you first" Important Information About Each Treatment Level: When to Consider Outpatient: You're medically stable You can maintain work/school/family responsibilities You need ongoing support and accountability You're in maintenance or relapse prevention phase When to Consider IOP: You need more structure than weekly appointments You can still live at home You benefit from group support You need multiple therapy modalities When to Consider PHP/Day Treatment: You need daily structure but can return home at night You require meal support You need more intensive care than IOP You're transitioning from residential or preventing residential When to Consider Residential: You need 24-hour support but are medically stable Your home environment isn't supportive of recovery You need complete immersion in treatment Outpatient options haven't been effective When to Consider Inpatient: You're experiencing severe symptoms There's self-harm or suicidal ideation You need medical and psychiatric oversight You require the highest level of structure When to Consider Recovery Coaching: You can't or won't do residential treatment You have kids, aging parents, or career obligations You want actionable support, not diagnosis You're looking for relapse prevention You want to layer support with existing care team What Makes Recovery Coaching Different: Not therapy: Coaches don't diagnose or address trauma - they focus on forward action Accountability structure: Weekly sessions keep you committed to your recovery goals Actionable support: Focused on practical steps like facing fear foods, getting off the scale, eating out with family Virtual and flexible: Fits into busy lives with kids, work, caregiving responsibilities Layered care: Works alongside dietitians, therapists, and medical professionals Relapse prevention: Helps maintain recovery after intensive treatment Questions to Ask When Choosing Treatment: What level of medical stability am I at currently?

Today's episode is one I've really been looking forward to because we're diving into something that's transforming the way we think about mental health treatment: low-dose ketamine therapy. My guest, Dr. Sharon Niv, is the co-founder of Joyous, a public benefit company helping make this kind of care more accessible and affordable than ever before. Sharon brings a fascinating background in cognitive psychology, meditation, and technology, and she's helping bridge the gap between neuroscience and therapy in a way that's incredibly gentle, safe, and empowering for both clients and clinicians. We'll talk about what makes psycholytic, or low-dose, ketamine different from traditional psychedelic experiences, how it can enhance the therapeutic process, and how you, as a therapist, can get trained to integrate it into your own work. This is one of those conversations that opens your mind to what's possible in therapy, so let's jump in.

Emotional lability, anxiety, crying jags. Welcome to perimenopause. 70% of women experience depressive symptoms and alterations in mood when estrogen levels plunge or start to fluctuate.  While many factors increase the risk, there is no denying that changes in hormone levels have something to do with anxiety, mood, and depression, even in people who never had issues before perimenopause.     Dr. Pauline Maki is a world-renowned expert in menopause, mood, cognition, and the impact of menopause on the brain. She has authored hundreds of scientific articles and leads a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded research program on women, cognition, mood, and dementia.  In this episode, we take a deep dive into the science of why women have mood alterations and depression when estrogen levels start to fluctuate.   In this episode:  ·      What it was like to participate in Dr. Jill Biden's  White House Initiative on Women's Health Research ·      The difference between depressive symptoms, mood alteration and depression ·      The risk of recurrence if there is a history of depression during perimenopause ·      The risk of developing depression if there is no history of depression ·      The risk of developing mood alterations if there is no history of depression ·      Windows of vulnerability (pregnancy, post-partum, perimenopause)  ·      What is occurring hormonally in the brain at the level of progesterone and estrogen receptors  ·      The Science Behind Risk Factors for developing depressive symptoms or depression during perimenopause o   Early menopause o   BRCA mutations o   History of major depressive disorder o   Hormone sensitivity in the brain o   Severe menopause symptoms  o   Childhood experiences o   Current life stressors ·      Treatment Options for Perimenopausal Depressive Symptoms o   No treatment- when will it go away? o   Cognitive Behavioral Therapy o   SSRIs o   Hormone Therapy o   NK3 Agonists  o   Progesterone?

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron discusses the complexities of perimenopausal symptoms, emphasizing the significant role of the nervous system in amplifying these symptoms. She explores the differences in how women experience hormonal fluctuations and the importance of addressing both hormonal and nervous system health for effective treatment. The conversation also covers various treatment options, including HRT and antidepressants, and highlights the necessity of managing stress and integrating neuroplasticity strategies for lasting relief.

Two Onc Docs, hosted by Samantha A. Armstrong, MD, and Karine Tawagi, MD, is a podcast dedicated to providing current and future oncologists and hematologists with the knowledge they need to ace their boards and deliver quality patient care. Dr Armstrong is a hematologist/oncologist and assistant professor of clinical medicine at Indiana University Health in Indianapolis. Dr Tawagi is a hematologist/oncologist and assistant professor of clinical medicine at the University of Illinois in Chicago. In this episode, OncLive On Air® partnered with Two Onc Docs to feature a conversation about soft tissue sarcoma management. Drs Armstrong and Tawagi discussed that soft tissue sarcomas represent a rare and heterogeneous group of malignancies that arise from mesenchymal cells rather than epithelial cells and encompass several distinct histologic subtypes. They explained that although uncommon, these sarcomas are frequently emphasized in board examinations, partly because their management has historically been stable, though recent FDA approvals and ongoing research have expanded therapeutic options. They noted that risk factors may include prior radiation exposure, environmental agents, and viral infections. Additionally, they shared that chronic lymphedema is associated with angiosarcoma, whereas rare hereditary syndromes may predispose individuals to specific sarcoma subtypes.  Clinically, they explained that sarcomas may arise anywhere in the body, though many occur in the thigh, buttocks, or groin, typically presenting as painless, enlarging masses often mistaken for benign lesions. They emphasized that diagnosis requires core needle biopsy to preserve tissue architecture and that staging relies on MRI of the primary site and CT of the chest, given the strong predilection for pulmonary metastases. They also summarized the five subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma—synovial, clear cell, angiosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and epithelioid. They reported that the cornerstone of localized disease management is surgical resection, preferably limb-sparing when feasible, combined with radiation for larger or high-risk tumors. They also highlighted novel strategies like immunotherapy. For metastatic disease, they stated that surgical resection of pulmonary metastases can achieve durable remissions in select patients.

In this Varroa Treatments short, Jeff Ott and co-host Dr. Becky Masterman welcome Dr. David Peck from Betterbee to discuss formic acid—a powerful tool in the fight against varroa mites. David explains how Formic Pro, the most common formic acid product now available in the U.S., is formulated to safely release vapors that penetrate capped brood cells, killing mites both on adult bees and developing brood. David and Becky highlight both the strengths and cautions: formic acid's ability to deliver a fast, thorough mite knockdown, its temperature sensitivity, and its potential to cause temporary brood loss or even queen replacement in stressed colonies. They emphasize protective gear, ventilation requirements, and why strong colonies benefit most from treatment. From freezer tricks to reduce fumes, to understanding normal bee behaviors like bearding after application, this episode gives beekeepers the knowledge to use formic acid effectively and safely—making it a valuable addition to a year-round mite management plan.

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States and involves abnormal growths of skin cells that can form anywhere on the body, but most frequently appear on skin that is exposed to the sun, such as the face. Vivian F. Wu, MD, MPH, is a surgeon-scientist specializing in all cancers of the head and neck, including those of the tongue, throat, voice box, thyroid, skin, and salivary glands.

In this installment of the Varroa Treatment Series, Jeff and Becky welcome Dr. David Peck of BetterBee to discuss oxalic acid treatments, one of the most widely used organic options for controlling Varroa mites. The conversation explores both oxalic acid vaporization (OAV) and the dribble method, breaking down how each is applied, safety considerations, and when they are most effective. David explains the differences between registered products like Api-Bioxal and EZ-OX, recent label updates allowing higher dosages, and practical tips for using each method safely—particularly the critical need for proper respiratory and eye protection with vaporization. He also shares insights into when broodless periods provide the greatest impact, why oxalic acid poses minimal risk to bees but requires careful handling by beekeepers, and what research still doesn't know about how this acid kills mites. This episode is an essential listen for beekeepers looking to add oxalic acid—whether dribble or vaporization—to their integrated mite management toolkit.

In this BTPS Varroa Treatments short, Jeff and Becky are joined again by Dr. David Peck of Betterbee to explore amitraz—known commercially to most U.S. beekeepers as Apivar. As a synthetic miticide, Apivar has long been a cornerstone of mite control due to its effectiveness, wide temperature range, and bee-friendly properties. But as with many tools in the beekeeper's arsenal, its strength may also be its vulnerability. David explains how amitraz works by overstimulating the varroa mite's nervous system, effectively paralyzing and killing the parasite while leaving bees largely unaffected. The treatment avoids comb contamination and breaks down quickly in the hive, making it an appealing option for many beekeepers—especially in late summer or early fall once honey supers are removed. However, the discussion also delves into growing concerns about resistance. Increasing reports, particularly from commercial operations, suggest amitraz is not as effective as it once was. Resistance genes in varroa populations have been linked to recent large-scale colony losses, and misuse or overuse of the chemical—including unapproved, home-mixed applications—may be accelerating the issue. The takeaway? Apivar can still be a reliable tool when used properly, but its effectiveness isn't guaranteed. Rotating treatments, testing for mites, and monitoring efficacy are essential. This episode highlights not only the promise of amitraz but also the need for responsible stewardship of every miticide in the beekeeper's toolbox.

In this episode of our BTP Shorts series on varroa treatments, Jeff and Becky welcome back Dr. David Peck of Betterbee to explore VarroxSan—an extended-release oxalic acid strip used to manage varroa mites. David explains how this USDA-registered product works, its origins in South American formulations like Aluen CAP, and why its slow-release delivery makes it a valuable tool for maintaining mite levels throughout the brood cycle. Oxalic acid, a naturally occurring organic acid, is effective against varroa and safe for bees when used correctly. David walks through how the fiberboard strips are dosed, placed in the hive, and gradually deliver oxalic acid over a 42–56 day period. While the exact mechanism of mite mortality remains somewhat mysterious, VarroxSan's ability to hold down mite levels—especially during nectar flows—makes it a helpful part of an integrated mite management plan. The team also discusses pros and cons: the product's compatibility with honey supers (with proper spacing), the need for good hive records to time strip removal, and the importance of following label instructions. They caution that VarroxSan may not be ideal as a first-response treatment for colonies already overwhelmed with mites, but it excels at keeping mite populations from rebounding. If you're considering an organic acid treatment that doesn't interrupt honey production, this episode is a must-listen.

In this first episode of our Beekeeping Today Podcast Shorts series on varroa mites, Jeff Ott and Becky Masterman are joined by Dr. David Peck of Betterbee to lay the foundation for an important multi-part series. Varroa mites continue to be the most damaging pest to honey bee colonies worldwide. In this introduction, the trio covers the biology and lifecycle of varroa, the damage they inflict, and why routine monitoring and informed treatment choices are critical for beekeepers. David explains how varroa mites reproduce inside brood cells and evade detection, riding under the bees' abdominal plates where they're nearly impossible to spot. They discuss effective monitoring methods—from sticky boards to alcohol washes—and highlight why consistent testing matters, especially before and after applying treatments. The episode also previews what's ahead: bite-sized episodes focusing on each available varroa treatment—both chemical and nonchemical—including tips on timing, efficacy, and practical use. This series aims to provide an accessible, up-to-date, and evergreen reference guide for beekeepers managing mites throughout the year.

What if you've been told you need both radiation and anti-estrogen therapy after breast cancer surgery, but the evidence suggests one treatment might be enough?Many women over 60 with early-stage, estrogen-positive breast cancer find themselves navigating a confusing treatment landscape. Different specialists may recommend different therapies without clearly explaining whether all of them are necessary. Dr. Katie Deming draws on her 20 years as a board-certified radiation oncologist to break down decades of research that challenge the idea that more treatment is always better.Now practicing integrative oncology, she understands the science behind standard treatment protocols and also recognizes how these decisions affect real life. Her experience inside the conventional medical system gives her the insight to question current practices while still honoring the research that supports more personalized approaches.Dr. Katie addresses a critical issue many women face: being prescribed multiple treatments without knowing if both are needed. She walks you through key studies like CALGB 9343 and PRIME II in simple terms. She explains what recurrence rate may be acceptable for some women, especially when compared to the long-term side effects of hormone therapy. She also explores how radiation, while more intensive in the short term, might be a better option for those who prefer a time-limited treatment.Listen, learn, and you understand your options so you can make choices that align with your values and quality of life.Download - Navigating Breast Cancer After 60 guide: https://www.katiedeming.com/breast-cancer-guide/Save your spot for the next LIVE fasting call here: https://www.katiedeming.com/the-healing-power-of-fasting/ Don't Face Cancer Alone"The 6 Pillars of Healing Cancer" workshop series provides you valuable insights and strategies to support your healing journey - Click Here to Enroll MORE FROM KATIE DEMING M.D. Save your spot for the next LIVE fasting call here: https://www.katiedeming.com/the-healing-power-of-fasting/ Work with Dr. Katie: www.katiedeming.comEmail: INFO@KATIEDEMING.COM 6 Pillars of Healing Cancer Workshop Series - Click Here to Enroll Follow Dr. Katie Deming on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katiedemingmd/ Please Support the Show Share this episode with a friend or family member Give a Review on Spotify Give a Review on Apple Podcast DISCLAIMER: The Born to Heal Podcast is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for seeking professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
