This is a rerun of an episode we did a year ago. As our last holiday rerun before we get into fresh content, this one helps to set the stage for our first couple episodes for 2025 which will discuss the "Make America Healthy Again" movement, aka MAHA. You might be surprised that many of our biggest problems today are the results of solutions to the problems we faced a few decades ago. This episode is all about nutrition in America: How did we get here? (Hint: there are actually some very good reasons for all the processed food) What problems is our diet creating? (Hint: it's more than just obesity) And what can we do to start fixing it? That's a huge topic, but our guest is one of the most qualified person to tackle it. Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian is a cardiologist, Jean Mayer Professor of Nutrition at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University, Professor of Medicine at Tufts School of Medicine, and an attending physician at Tufts Medical Center.

In today's episode I talk to a woman who walked into her pregnancy imagining that:*  it would be relatively easy* miscarriage wasn't a part of the equation and * that her doctor would tell her everything she needed to know. It's a very relatable story, given that this is the way a lot of us walk into this experience. It's certainly the way I initially walked into pregnancy. She'd wanted an unmedicated birth, but her scheduled induction turned into a C section in a way that really scared her and her husband. It also taught her how to adopt a different approach for the second child. We talk about her experience as a black woman in a maternity setting, and I also talk with a fantastic professor of black maternal health who shares the work she's doing in improving this setting from within a medical school.ACOG preparation for an unmedicated birth:https://www.acog.org/womens-health/experts-and-stories/the-latest/thinking-about-childbirth-without-pain-medication-heres-how-you-can-prepareDr. Amutah-Onukagha at Tufts School of Medicine: https://medicine.tufts.edu/people/faculty/ndidiamaka-amutah-onukagha

According to a recent government-funded food pyramid study from Tufts School of Nutrition, Lucky Charms are healthier to eat than steak. So how did such an obviously ridiculous claim pass multiple levels of review at a widely respected research institution? Calley Means joins us to expose the decades-long influence that processed food and pharmaceutical companies have held over America's research institutions, how it's led to skyrocketing rates of obesity and other chronic health conditions, and simple reforms to programs like SNAP that could make America healthy again. Calley Means is a food-as-medicine advocate and the co-founder of TrueMed. He was previously a consultant for food and pharma companies and is now exposing practices they use to weaponize our institutions of trust. Follow Calley on Twitter at @calleymeans.

#110: In Part 2 of our interview with organic expert and PhD candidate Charlotte Vallaeys, she sits down with our co-director Dave Chapman to talk through her main takeaways since she began researching the rise of the term "regenerative" in agriculture and how it relates to the organic movement. Charlotte Vallaeys is an organic expert and PhD candidate at the Tufts School of Agriculture, Food, and Environment. Her focus is on the rise of regenerative agriculture and how it compares to the organic movement, especially socially.

Dr. Juan Camilo Arjona Ferreira & Dr. Kalahn Taylor-Clark of Myovant Sciences discuss the current standard of care for uterine fibroids. According to the Baird et al paper, published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, by age 50, 80% of black women and 70% of white women will have uterine fibroids. While not every woman will be symptomatic, those who are will commonly experience heavy menstrual bleeding, which is often normalized and may result in delayed diagnosis.  **Thank you to Myovant Sciences for sponsoring this episode.** This podcast episode is intended to raise awareness and instill a sense of urgency, challenging the status quo in uterine healthcare, serving as a reminder that women can and need to advocate for themselves and their family members. We cover the following: Heavy menstrual bleeding & when it may be a sign of uterine fibroids Uterine fibroids symptoms & prevalence How uterine fibroids are diagnosed & how our healthcare systems' implicit bias might play a role in delayed diagnosis Uterine fibroid treatment options & how to know which is right for you Impact of uterine fibroids on women of color, specifically Ways to minimize uterine fibroids' impact on those suffering, their loved ones, and overall society “Patients with fibroids already live with a significant burden to manage their symptoms. The added financial impact increases the mental effects uterine fibroids can have on a patient. There are consequences over time on their health, self esteem, and careers. It's a substantial impact.” - Dr. Juan Camilo Arjona Ferreira “The normalization of women's heavy periods and pain have left many people without the tools to understand when their periods are abnormal. When to seek treatment and how to get a diagnosis can be confusing, and frankly difficult to navigate” - Dr. Kalahn Taylor-Clark Resources: Menstrual Health Spotify Podcast Playlist Uterine Fibroids with Dr. Jessica Opoku-Anane Episode The White Dress Project & The Fibroid Foundation Uterine Fibroids Toolkit: A Patient Empowered Guide by the Society for Women's Health Research If you liked this episode leave a review:  iTunes or Spotify.  Tell 2-3 of your friends!   **The information shared by Fempower Health is not medical advice but for information purposes to enable you to have more effective conversations with your doctor.

On this episode, Paige chats with her dear friend, Katie Southworth. Katie is an internationally recognized abstract artist and art educator currently based in Boston, MA. Originally from Darien Connecticut, she graduated from Colby College in Waterville, Maine with Bachelors degrees in Studio Art and Psychology. She went on to receive her Masters in Teaching at the Tufts School of the Museum of Fine Arts in May 2018. In August of 2021, after three years of teaching, she decided to pursue her fine art career full time!Katie discusses her journey from art educator to full time artist and the meaning behind her beautiful, colorful work. Every piece that Katie creates uses color as the language and her over arching goal is to always make a calming visual aid for mindfulness and meditation. Katie expresses how her work is so closely tied to her own trauma of losing her mom in 2015, which induced an extreme sense of clarity of what to express through her paintings. Katie's work focuses solely on color and light as a way from staying away from darkness and depression. Paige and Katie chat about how being open and allowing yourself to say yes to opportunities that you would normally say no to allows new doors to open. They also discuss the challenges, importance, and power of letting go in order to create more time, space, and energy to focus on what truly brings you joy, passion, and peace.Katie has 100 of her original works are in private collections in New York City, Vero Beach, LA, Edgartown, Hermosa Beach, Oakland, Denver, Canada, Slovenia, and more. Katie's work has been featured in international publications including House & Garden UK, Vanity Fair London, and British Vogue.

Quando si dice la tua pelle è come seta, in genere, è per fare un complimento, ma alla Tufts University è una semplice constatazione. I ricercatori del Tufts Silklab, il laboratorio di ricerca della Tufts University, in Massachusetts, che a partire dalla seta ha fabbricato negli anni un po' di tutto, sono infatti riusciti a mettere a punto un materiale a base di seta dotato delle stesse caratteristiche della pelle, e quindi adatto anche alle stesse lavorazioni.Come vedremo, per riuscirci, i ricercatori del Tafts Silklab scompongono la seta nelle sue proteine di base, trasformandola in un gel che può essere stampato con una stampante 3D, e che una volta asciutto da vita una similpelle altrettanto organica di quella originale, ma decisamente più sostenibile.

Have medical textbooks been mistaken when addressing the proliferation of cancer cells? Studies out of Tuft School of Medicine may present a new way of thinking about carcinogens. Tune in to learn: Why cells proliferate and if this function can be regulated What allows cells to become cancerous Why a reductionist view does not solve the problem of cancer Integrative physiologist and pathobiologist at Tufts School of Medicine, Carlos Sonnenschein, M.D., breaks down his recent insights about how cancer should be perceived and treated. The established view of cancer as a cellular issue may be on its way out. Dr. Sonnenschein discusses the common error in thinking cell proliferation is inducible and how this relates to cancer cells. This leads to the conclusion that cancer is a tissue-based problem rather than being cellular-based, as is commonly taught.  Carcinogens affect cells and cause disorders to begin occurring. This leads to mutations of the tissue and will cause chaos in its development. Dr. Sonnenschein is on a mission to change the way people think about carcinogens and how we can make a difference in battling cancer development moving forward. For more information, the Tufts School of Medicine research studies are available online, and Dr. Sonnenschein can be reached at his email address: carlos.sonnenschein@tufts.edu.

In this episode, I sit down with Tommy Bond, an alumnus of Tufts School of Dental Medicine and a 2020 graduate of University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine's specialty program in Orthodontics. Tommy reveals what it takes to match Ortho - one of the most competitive dental specialities. Tommy wears multiple hats - he is a cycle instructor with an energy and motivational teaching style that is hard to come by. Tommy's ability to excel in dental school and residency, while working multiple jobs, is a testament to his work ethic. The first in his family to go to college, Tommy is a self-made orthodontist and his story is an inspiring one. Be sure not to miss our conversation about dental school, match, residency and life beyond school.

For many educators online teaching is a relatively new experience that presents opportunities for rethinking traditional instruction and beliefs about student learning. Dr. Rogers talks to us about the importance of setting clear learning goals, using appropriate assessment metrics, and developing ways of thinking about the role of technology to support meaningful learning.References mentioned in this episode:Rogers, C. (2020). A Time to Experiment. ASEE Prism, 29(4), 21-21Bio:Chris Rogers earned his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in mechanical engineering at Stanford University, where he worked with Professor John Eaton on his thesis on particle motion in a boundary layer flow. Rogers joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tufts School of Engineering in 1989. He is involved in a number of research areas, including particle-laden flows (a continuation of his thesis), telerobotics and controls, slurry flows in chemical-mechanical planarization, the engineering of musical instruments, measuring flame shapes of couch fires, measuring fruit-fly locomotion, and engineering education (kindergarten to college). At Tufts, Rogers has exercised his strong commitment to teaching by exploring a number of new directions, including teaching robotics with LEGO bricks and teaching manufacturing by building musical instruments. His teaching work extends to the elementary school level, where he talks with over 1,000 teachers around the world every year on methods of introducing young children to engineering.

 Welcome to the radio magazine that brings you news, commentary and analysis from a Black Left perspective. I'm Margaret Kimberley, along with my co-host Glen Ford. Coming up: New and updated terms have entered the vocabulary of Black liberation. We'll speak with an academic and activist about critical race theory, racial realism and Afro-pessimism. And, we'll take a look at the history and current struggles of quilombos, the autonomous Black and indigenous settlements of Brazil. But first -- A globally important webinar on U.S. militarization of Africa, through its military command, AFRICOM, will be held on December 4. One of the panelists is Marie Claire Far-EYE, a Congolese member of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. Far-Eye currently lives in Great Britain, a country where, like the United States, most people are not even aware that the greatest genocide since World War Two is still unfolding in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Shameka Powell is co-director Educational Studies at Tufts School of Arts, and co-author of an essay titled, "Kissing Cousins: Critical Race Theory's Racial Realism and Afropessimism's Social Death.” These are subjects that are hotly debated in Black academic circles, and among some activists, but not the stuff of daily Black conversation. We talked with Prof. Powell about the relevance of Racial Realism and Afropessimism. Brazil is home to the biggest Black population in the world outside of Nigeria, yet Blacks wield very little institutional power. Carla Maria Guerrón Montero is a Professor of Anthropology at the University of Delaware. She's done extensive studies of Black populations in Latin America. Most recently, Professor Montero immersed herself in the Quilombos of Brazil, autonomous settlements established to escape slavery and ongoing oppression of Black and indigenous people.

Would you treat someone for chlamydia over and over again without checking their partner? Maybe you shouldn't treat for perio disease without checking their partner either!   Dr. Burton Langer earned his dental degree from Tufts School of Dental Medicine. He received his Certificate in Periodontics and Masters Degree in Science from Boston University School of Graduate Dentistry in 1966.   He was a former Associate Clinical Professor of Periodontics and the Director of Post Graduate Clinical Periodontics at Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology.   Dr. Langer was one of the first periodontists  trained in osseointegration by Professor Per-Ingvar Branemark in 1983. His development of new modalities of therapy, such as the early re-entry procedure for bone grafts, the ridge augmentation procedure, the subepithelial connective tissue graft and various flap procedures for implants, have become standard methods of treatment.     Dr. Langer has lectured extensively throughout the world, has written over 40 articles, and chapters in 6 textbooks, many of which have original concepts that have enhanced the clinical practice of periodontics and implant dentistry. He is the 1992 recipient of the Hirschfeld Award for Clinical Excellence and the 1997 recipient of the American Academy of Periodontology Master Clinician Award.     www.langerperio.com Burton Langer, DMD 933 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10021  Phone: (212) 772-6900  

First CBT Psychosis Trial in the Absence of Medication Antipsychotic medication has long been seen as the first line of treatment for psychosis. In fact, prescriptions are increasing in the UK and around the world. But there's criticism that the effectiveness of these drugs has been over-estimated, and the serious side effects, underestimated. Now, in the first trial of its kind in the world, treating psychosis when people aren't taking antipsychotics using a talking therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is being measured in a randomised controlled trial. It is the first time since the 1970s that a psychological treatment, in the absence of medication, has been put to the test, and the results of this experiment have the potential to transform the treatment options for the many people who have diagnoses of schizophrenia and related disorders. The trial's being run jointly by Manchester University and Greater Manchester West Mental Health Foundation Trust, and Tony Morrison, Professor of Clinical Psychology at the University of Manchester, is leading the research along with colleagues in the North East of England. He tells Claudia Hammond that patients should be given more choice about the treatments they're offered instead of medication being the default option. Trial participants, Natalie and Steve, describe their experience of psychosis and the treatments that have helped them and the Editor of the British Journal of Psychiatry, Peter Tyrer, puts the trial into context. US Elections and Mental Health Sixteen per cent of the American population don't have health care insurance and people with mental health problems are over-represented in this group. Daniel Carlat is Professor of Psychiatry at Tufts School of Medicine and he describes to Claudia how insurance companies are reluctant to fund mental health care. Producer: Fiona Hill.
