Podcasts about Vitamin C

After four thwarted attempts at racing an ultramarathon, Tina Muir ran the Bryce Canyon 50 Miler on May 20th. Bryce Canyon almost didn't happen either; the race was on the same day as the funeral of her close friend, Patrick, whom she had lost just a few weeks earlier, and she struggled with whether or not to run. But Patrick's widow knew that he would have wanted her to carry on and encouraged her to run the race to honor him.  Patrick must have been proud: Tina finished first female, third overall, and with the 4th-fastest women's time in the race's history.

Tina is currently preparing for her first ultramarathon, the Bryce Canyon 50 Miler, so we thought this was an appropriate time to reshare an episode from June 2018 with the amazing ultrarunner Courtney Dauwalter.  In this episode, she shares her experiences of hallucinating and running blind, her favorite moment on her way to victory in the Moab 240, and her advice for pushing through tough times.

For anyone looking to ignite their fat-burning metabolism, boost their energy, and transform how they look and feel, they must start taking care of their liver. Your liver is your body's master detoxifier. It performs over 500 key functions in your body every single day. After decades of wear and tear, our livers slow down and become sluggish. Fortunately, there's a simple, all-natural solution that I recommend. It's called Liver Health Formula.   Liver Health Formula contains 12 powerful botanicals clinically proven to recharge and protect your liver at the cellular level. It helps restore your liver's detoxifying abilities. Try Liver Health Formula completely risk-free, and receive 5 FREE gifts when you order today. Just go to GetLiverHelp.com/Jockers to claim your risk-free supply of Liver Health Formula and all 5 bonus gifts.   If you've tried collagen for aging skin and haven't gotten the results you want... It's because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient. And without this “missing link,” collagen WILL NOT WORK. With this "missing link" you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin! So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C. Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient... But did you know Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C it's the "glue" that holds collagen together in your body. And if you're low in Vitamin C, well all of that collagen you're taking is pointless. And here's the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equal… If you're taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that). However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL' technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient! So, if your skin is looking older than you... And the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and otherwise “old-looking” skin frustrates you… Give Purality Health's Micelle Liposomal Vitamin C a try! It's backed by a 180-day money-back guarantee. And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you! Just visit puralityhealth.com and use the coupon DRJ to access 30% OFF your purchase today!   This podcast is sponsored by our friends at Paleovalley. And they have a great new product that I've been taking every morning that is called NeuroEffect.    NeuroEffect is an organic blend of 8 different mushrooms that will fuel your brain for all-day concentration, clarity, and enhanced brain function.    I'm a huge fan of medicinal mushrooms – I take them daily to support my immune system and my brain health. But did you know that virtually every mushroom product on the market isn't actually the mushroom? It's the mycelium that they grow on grain. This means they barely contain any of the medicinal compounds that mushrooms have to offer and instead contain up to 50% starch! The grain can cause gut irritation and can interfere with the absorption of the little mushrooms they do have in it.    Paleovalley's NeuroEffect only uses whole mushrooms that are cultivated naturally and organically. They are then tested not once, but twice for quality, guaranteeing you get 2,100 mg of our neuro-supportive REAL mushrooms that have more than 26% beta-glucans ( the medicinal elements of a mushroom) in every serving, without the grains.   Paleovalley has added an organic whole coffee fruit that has been shown in clinical trials to stimulate the production of a protein vital for focus, memory, and clarity. Which means no caffeine jitters, or feeling like you need an afternoon cup of coffee.    Check out Paleovalley's Neuro Effect and use the coupon code 'JOCKERS' at checkout to get 15% off.   Dr. Jockers is being interviewed today by his good friend Dr. Rodger Murphee, AKA Your Fibro Doctor, as part of Dr. Murphee's Fibromyalgia Summit. Dr. Murphee has been helping people with functional medicine for the better part of twenty years now and is a world-renowned Fibromyalgia expert.   Fibromyalgia is a chronic (long-lasting) disorder that causes pain and tenderness throughout the body, as well as fatigue and trouble sleeping. What advanced nutrition strategies can you employ to turn off chronic inflammation in your body?    If we're going to survive and thrive, we need to look at what we are putting into our bodies as the root cause of inflammation. Fibromyalgia isn't just something that's in your head, so if you know of someone who's suffering from it, or if you'd just like to learn more, then this episode is for you! "Inflammation is a normal process of the body. Without it, we wouldn't be able to survive." -Dr. Rodger Murphee      Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio   In This Episode:   08:00 What is inflammation? 11:10 Understanding 'mental emotional strength' 12:10 What are 'micro traumas'? 15:00 Is it healthy to get exposure to hormetic stressors? 21:55 What are the two main drivers of chronic health conditions? 23:40 What principles should guide you in your diet? 24:40 The value of high-quality protein 36:30 Unpacking the benefits of fasting (what steps can you take today?) 39:10 Having warm lemon tea early in the morning to improve bowel movements 43:30 Understanding mitophagy  45:00 Creating the right environment for mitophagy and autophagy in our bodies 47:40 What is 'feast famine cycling'? 49:00 The addictive aspect of getting toxins out of your body during fasting     Resources: Claim your risk-free supply of Liver Health Formula and all 5 bonus gifts – GetLiverHelp.com/Jockers PUREDOSE® Micelle Liposomal Glutathione - Use Coupon Code DRJ for 30% off Paleovalley NeuroEffect - Use code ‘JOCKERS' to get 15% off at checkout   Connect with Dr. Rodger Murphee: Your Fibro Doctor - https://yourfibrodoctor.com/ Super Healthy Human - https://superhealthyhuman.com/   Connect with Dr. Jockers: Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/drjockers/ Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/DrDavidJockers YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/user/djockers Website – https://drjockers.com/ ● If you are interested in being a guest on the show, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us here! - https://drjockers.com/join-us-dr-jockers-functional-nutrition-podcast/

Certain mushrooms contain unique polysaccharides called beta-glucans. And a 2012 review on products containing beta-glucans found they can help to naturally increase energy, reduce confusion, boost mood, improve recall and memory, and increase vigor.”   My go-to mushroom blend is Paleovalley NeuroEffect. It contains a potent blend of 8 whole mushrooms, without any grains or fillers like most products, and happily touts a beta-glucan level of at least 26%. PLUS, they've included organic coffee fruit extract that gives you the brain-boosting effects of coffee – without the jitters or crash you get with caffeine.

He's joined by his wife Angel (what would a wedding anniversary be without your better half?), who's revealing her (secret) surgery that she has just recovered from.    In the past year, Angel was getting sick regularly, and her and Dr. Jockers started looking around to see what could be the cause. Mold in the home? Maybe.

Today we're gonna talk about the science behind how sugar is not food, but poison. Thank you, Robert Lustig. (00:14): So the big question is, how do women over 40 like us keep weight off, have great energy, balance our hormones and our moods, feel sexy and confident, and master midlife? If you're like most of us, you are not getting the answers you need and remain confused and pretty hopeless to ever feel like yourself Again. As an ob gyn, I had to discover for myself the truth about what creates a rock solid metabolism, lasting weight loss, and supercharged energy after 40, in order to lose a hundred pounds and fix my fatigue, now I'm on a mission. This podcast is designed to share the natural tools you need for impactful results and to give you clarity on the answers to your midlife metabolism challenges. Join me for tangible, natural strategies to crush the hormone imbalances you are facing and help you get unstuck from the sidelines of life. My name is Dr. Kyrin Dunston. Welcome to the Hormone Prescription Podcast. (01:08): Hi everybody. Welcome back to another episode of the Hormone Prescription with Dr. Kyrin.. Thank you so much for joining me today. My guest today is Dr. Richard Johnson, and he loves fat. I know you don't, but he does, and it's a good thing because he is been studying it for years and he's got some epic information to share with you about why nature wants us to be fat, the surprising science behind why we gain weight and how to prevent and reverse it. And he's done the research. He loves research. He went into medicine because he wanted to figure out what was causing diseases and treat the reason why we had diseases, not just medicate them with drugs and surgery. So he's a doctor after my own heart. He is an internal medicine doctor. He is also trained in nephrology and infectious disease, and he's an avid researcher. (02:02): So he has a book. Nature Wants Us to Be Fat. We're gonna talk about it today. We're gonna dive into some of the details about sugar and really how bad it is, and you can't hear about this enough. And the ways in which, which types of sugar contribute to overweight and obesity, how you can mitigate these types of sugar in your diet, how your water and hydration status, your salt status, your uric acid status, all affect these, how menopause is associated with insulin resistance. And these link into these other factors. So before I get too technical, I'm gonna bring in Dr. Richard Johnson, who is the researcher. And he, I love the way he describes these things. He tells it almost like a story with a plot and a murder mystery. And I love a good murder mystery. So you're gonna love hearing him talk because he really has a passion for the science behind what makes us overweight and why nature is conspiring to make us overweight. (03:02): And he's really going to spell it out for you and give you some practical, actionable tips. I know you want those. He's got 'em. And I've already told you a little bit about him. Let me just check out his bio and see if there's anything else important that you need to know. He is a professor of medicine at University of Colorado. He does practice medicine, but he really loves research and he is done it for more than 25 years. He is an international expert on sugar and uric acid and its role in obesity, their role in obesity and diabetes. He is book is Nature, wants us to Be Fat. It tells the story of why we are becoming obese and what to do about it becoming, I mean, we're kind of in the the era of epidemic obesity. So we're in it, folks, and if you wanna get out, then you wanna listen to Doctor Rick as he likes to be called. (03:55): Thank you Kyrin. It's wonderful. We'll be on your show. (03:58): I'm so excited to have you here talking about one of my favorite topics, fat, right? What woman doesn't love talking about fat and how to get rid of it. And we're gonna dive into why nature is conspiring against us to make us fat. And the surprising science, why we gain weight and how to prevent and reverse it. But first, I always like to get some type of background for everybody listening. Why are you so passionate about this? How did that happen? You come from an internal medicine background, also nephrology, infectious disease. So how did you become fascinated with that? (04:34): Well, it began when I was becoming a doctor, I just really have been interested in the causes of disease even more so than the treatment of disease. And my, I come from a family where there've been a lot of scientists. And so I, you know, from the very beginning, I always was wondering, why do they have diabetes? Why do they have this condition or that, as opposed to just giving them insulin and having them come back to see you in clinic, you know? And so very early on I started my research career and I was very, I initially, I studied high blood pressure and high blood pressure, as you know, is linked with obesity. And it's linked with insulin resistance. And one thing led to another. And over the last 20 some years, over 30 years, actually, I've been doing research and probably about half of my time is doing research from the basic laboratory to animals in the wild to studies of people. And I've been a very active researcher, but I also have a clinical practice. I see people treat people. And so I have kind of a, I try to do both, both ends of the spectrum. Yeah. (05:44): You know, it reminds me of that Hippocrates quote. Oh gosh. Somebody shared it in one of the podcast episodes recently about the goal of good medicine is to make you not need it. And so you came into this field thinking that you were more interested in why people got disease. Wh if we can figure out why they get it and fix the why, then they won't get it Right (06:09): Ex. Exactly. It's much more effective, it's a much more effective way of helping people. And you know absolutely. That's been the main driver I've been studying, particularly got interested in this thing called the metabolic syndrome, where people develop obesity and pre-diabetes and high blood pressure. And it seems to be the precursor for just about, you know, many of the diseases that are affecting us today. So, you know, when I would go on, when I go on the ward, you know, the residents would come up to me and say, you know, well we have a patient with diabetes and hypertension and heart disease and gout and fatty liver. And, and it's just kind of like a litany of these common diseases. And I believe they're all linked. And so my research took me into diet and into nutrition and into what was it in the diet that triggers these changes that we're seeing? (07:08): And I was particularly puzzled by the fact that in 1900, only one in 30 people were obese. Only one in 50,000 had diabetes. It was like diabetes was almost unheard of. High blood pressure was seen in less than 5% of the population. Heart disease really hadn't even been described. The coronary artery disease wasn't described till 1910. And so, you know, there were only 500 cardiologists in the entire United States in 1940. I mean, it was just not a very common problem. But today, you know, it's just gone crazy. So the question is, you know, why, why did this increase? And obviously the biggest thought has been its relates to diet. And, and then that, that led me to, to my research. (07:59): Right? And those are some very sobering statistics. Nowadays, hypertension, diabetes, coronary artery disease are so commonplace that we consider it normal. It's part of our normal vocabulary. But you're right, what a hundred, just over a hundred years ago, these were kind of anomalies, but now we consider them common. And I'll go ahead and plug in my hormones because it's the same when it comes to menopause. You know, over a hundred years ago, women didn't live any significant amount of time in menopause. So it really wasn't an issue. Now that our lifespan has increased due to medical advances and improved healthcare, we will live some, sometimes a third to a half of our life in menopause in a state of what I call hormonal poverty. And it seems like all the symptoms of what I call midlife metabolic mayhem and disease and premature death from menopause are quote unquote normal. (08:58): And because most women suffer from them. But I think that we have to kind of take a page out of the book of these other metabolic diseases that you described, where they're now commonplace. And so we have physicians that are dedicated to treating these disorders and medications and whole fields of study. And really it should be the same with menopause. But if you compare , the amount of funding and doctors who do research on menopause and treatment, it's really not equivalent to that of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary artery disease. So I just wanted to get that in. Cause I think it's, (09:36): You're right, absolutely right after menopause happens, there's such a dramatic increase in the risk of high blood pressure and obesity and diabetes and all of these metabolic complications go way up in women after menopause. And it is related for sure to these hormonal changes. And actually it's very much linked to our research. And I agree with you. I like that phrase, hormonal poverty. That really does describe the situation. Well. Yes. (10:09): So let's dive into your research on sugar, uric acid, all kinds of wonderful things. Where would you like to start? (10:19): Well, I can begin by kind of how we approached this problem. So the question we, we were asking ourselves is, I'm not afraid to ask big questions, . Yeah. So the, the question that we asked ourselves is, you know, what's driving obesity? And so many people study it and usually they study it from this standpoint of obesity is a disease, it's associated with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. And they kind of come at it like it's a, you know, it is a very bad thing to have. But we decided to kind of take a twist on it and kind of look at it from the standpoint of nature. And in nature, obesity can be lifesaving. And you probably know this well, you know, if you're a big brown bear yeah, and you wanna make it through the winter, you better have enough fat. And so what happens is they, in the spring, they're, they're kind of lean and during the summer they, they actually stay lean and mean as they say. (11:22): But then about eight weeks before they hibernate, they purposefully get fat. And so I realized that it was kind of like a switch. They're eating normally every day and if they eat too much one day, they eat less the other. And actually there's data in animals that regulate their weight. Normally if you fast it an animal for a month and make it lose 20% of its weight, which is sort of mean, but if you do that and you stop that, they'll go right back to the weight they're supposed to be at. If you feed an animal force, feed it so that it has to gain weight and then you stop that, they'll go back to their normal weight. So normally animals regulate their weight, but, you know, all I had to do is look acro, you know, walk to the supermarket and you would recognize that people are not regulating their weight today. (12:13): But interestingly, if you look at a bear, it regulates its weight perfectly. And then eight weeks before it hibernates, it suddenly starts eating voraciously. It looks for food, it starts foraging dramatically, it increases its weight, eight to 10 pounds a day. It becomes insulin resistant. It gets fat in its blood, it gets fat in its silver, it develops the metabolic syndrome. But it is purposeful because it wants to get that fat so that when it goes into its den and it sleeps through the winter, it lives off the fat and the guts not from just the energy from the fat, you know, it breaks down the fat to produce energy. So you don't have to eat when you ha fat enough. You don't have to eat when you're breaking down the fat cuz you can get your energy from the fat, but they even get their water from the fat. (13:09): So when a bear hibernates it doesn't drink water for four months, doesn't eat food for four months and it lives off its fat. Mm-Hmm. . So when we think about animals like this or animals that do long distance migration or nesting, we see that nature wants them to be fat, at least for that period of time. And the question is what triggers them to go from kind of a normal weight to one where they're really gaining weight fast. And then we thought to ourselves, if we can figure this out, then maybe if we can see if people have accidentally turned on this switch all the time. That was sort of the question. And I had also, I have to admit, I'd been studying this for quite a while. At the time we started studying, we did study hibernating bears and we studied hibernating squirrels. And so we did do studies, but I already had an idea, I have to admit. (14:07): And the idea I had related to sugar and particularly to fructose, and I was thinking about, I don't know if you know it, but the little hummingbird Yeah. Has a metta metabolic rate. That's unbelievable. I mean they, they're bidding their wings so fast and their heartbeat so high. I mean, it's like they are metabolically fantastic. They can do anything. They can actually, they can fly long distances even. I mean they, they are just an amazing species. They are. Yeah. And beautiful. But, but they, and beautiful and they eat sugar, they're eating sugar and they, they nectar, you know, with, they put their little bills and those flowers and they pull out, they suck out the the nectar. Nectar is like sugar water. And you know what happens during the day, that's all they eat and they become internally fat like you can't believe it. (15:03): Their liver turns white. Mm-Hmm. , it becomes white with fat. They call it the pearly white liver of the hummingbird. It's supposed to be like the fattest of all livers of birds. And their glucose levels go up to like 700 in their blood. So they actually become diabetic. They're diabetic fat, visceral fat, liver fat all in one day. And then at the end of the day they quit eating, they actually will start resting and when they rest they burn. They continue with that high metabolic rate and they burn off the fat and they drop their blood glucose levels by hundreds of, you know, milligrams mm-hmm. . And basically they go back to normal by the morning and then they start over. And so I was well aware that fructose can really make an animal fat one day if you eat enough, you know, if you're a hummingbird, even with your metabolic rate, it can overcome you and mm-hmm. (16:06): , it just told me that there's something about sugar that's particularly strong. And, actually that's one of my quotes, sugar turns to fat because when you feed animals sugar, they increase their fat content and they decrease their muscle mass actually a little bit. And so it's really powerful, it's a powerful food for increase in fat. And when we started looking at this, we realized it was the fructose that was really the key, you know, sugar or table sugar is sucrose, but it's actually two sugars. It's fructose and glucose bound together and high fructose corn syrups, another added sugar that's in foods and by the name you can tell it's got fructose in it. It's got fructose, high amounts (16:55): . (16:56): Yeah. High amounts, high fructose corn syrup. But let's remember that it's high and it is higher than fat sugar. So yeah, bear (17:05): A fruit hummingbird. It started there with sugar. Sugar turns to fat. A lot of people still think that it's fat that makes you fat. It's not, it's sugar. Right. And can you talk a little bit about high fructose corn syrup because it used to hear a lot more about it and then I don't think it's so much in the media, but it's still being served daily (17:26): . It's unbelievable. So, here was the problem, I don't know, you know, I'm old enough that I remember when ice cream was made with regular sugar and if the ice cream got in the freezer a long time, it would form crystals and it wasn't as good. And so then they found that they could make a syrup of sugar. High fructose corn syrup is basically a syrup and you know, it has a little bit more fructose cuz fructose is the sweeter of the two sugars. So there's fructose and glucose and it has a little more of the fructose, which is sweeter and people like that. And because it's liquid, they can mix it into food really well, it doesn't crystallize. It's got a good shelf life. And so when it was introduced, they found that they could put it in all kinds of food. And when they put it in the food, they can blend it. They, so they can make it strong. So it's really sweet or they can make it just subtle. And actually if it's just subtle, it just makes, makes it taste better. You know, like crackers, if you add just a tiny bit of sugar, you know, I don't know if when you eat a wheat then it, it's got a little sweetness that's so subtle that you can't tell (18:40): It hits that, that bliss point, you know, that everybody has biologic. Right. (18:46): And we did it (18:46): For the fat, salt and sugar. So Yes, go ahead. I'm sorry to interrupt. (18:50): Yeah, no, no, no. I'm sorry to my enthusiasm getting ahead of me here. So sorry. But, but anyway, so it turns out that, you know, when they added the high fructose corn syrup, they found that they could just really, that people would buy the food more. And so a lot of processed foods where you, where, you know, they add things into it, they'll add this high fructose corn syrup or sugar and salts, another one. And so these processed foods have about 70, 70%, 75% of them contain either sugar or high fructose corn syrup and a lot of salt too. And so this, this turns out to be a great way to trigger this switch because, in animals in the wild, a lot of them will eat fructose as their means to trigger the switch. And bears is they eat fruit. And although I like fruit and you like fruit and normally small amounts of fruit, like what humans eat is healthy cuz it contains so many good things. (19:49): A bear won't eat, you know, two apples or one apple at a time. It'll eat as many as it can stuff in its mouth. And so they can get a hundred fruits and then when you eat that much, the sugar adds up. So that's how they do it. They eat a lot of fructose and they can trigger this, this thing. And we did studies in animals then, and we could show that fructose triggers this switch. And when you feed an animal fructose, not only do they get hungry, they get hungry, they get thirsty, they want to eat more food, and they do, they don't control their appetite anymore. So they eat more than they should. They drop their energy metabolism when they're resting, they start becoming insulin resistant and they raise their blood pressure and they put Liv fat in their liver. Anyway, they do all these things, they even get behavioral changes where they start foraging. (20:56): It's an incredible program. So it's like a whole orchestra is initiated, it isn't just about eating more. And this is all triggered by fructose and it turns out to be unique. It's unique to fructose. And we actually figured out how it worked. And it's really cool because when you eat food, you're getting energy, right? We get our energy from the food we eat. And so when we eat food, we make energy in our bodies that we use to do what we do. That's why we eat. But there's two types of energy, there's really two major types of energy. There's the act of energy that we use everyday and we call that a t p, that's the energy we make. We make it in our mitochondria and other places in our body. And then the other energy is the stored energy and the stored energy is fat because it can be turned into energy when you break it down. (21:58): That's how the bear gets through the winter. So, so it turns out that when you eat, most people were thinking that when you eat, you get this energy and if we fill up our atp and once the gas tank is full, then the extra goes into fat. And it turns out that's not the way it works. Once the ATTP is full, you count your weight is regulated, you, you're not going to eat anymore. It's like a system that controls your weight. Mm-Hmm. . But what fructose does is it, it lowers the a t p, it's the only nutrient that lowers the a t P in the cell. And when that happens, it makes you hungry because you wanna have a full, you wanna have a full tank. And so what you do is you eat more, but be the way fructose works is it doesn't allow you to really build up that attp. It makes the energy that comes in go over to the fat. So energy the same. You're you're eating energy and you're, you're storing energy. But instead of, or using it, but instead of using it for, at tp, it's going preferentially to the fat mm-hmm. . And, and because the a t P levels are low, you keep eating. And so it's a fantastic system for making an animal want to gain weight. You (23:18): Know, as you're saying that I've experienced this, maybe people listening have, so I don't consume a lot of fruit because the more fruit I eat, the more fruit I want, the more food I want. I've always noticed that. And you know, all these diet wars going on and people say, well why do you hate fruit? And Dr. Kiran, I say, I don't hate fruit. It just is not necessarily the best option when there are other options. So you're saying that the switch that triggers it for the hummingbird and for the hibernating bears is sugar and that's what's switching us Yes. The survival switch that's causing us to gain weight as well. (24:00): Yes. So originally, okay, originally our work said it was from, just from the sugars that we were eating. And you know, like a hummingbird gets it from nectar, the bear gets it by eating a lot of fruit. To address your question, you know, we've done a fair number of studies and if, and for most people, if they eat a few fruits, it's actually good because you got fiber and potassium and all this. But if you eat a lot of fruit or if you eat certain fruits that are sweeter than others, you can activate the switch from fruit. I have had people who couldn't lose weight and they were eating, drinking smoothies of fruits and I had them stop that and they were able to lose weight very quickly. So it is true, but in general, fruits in our work, we actually did a clinical trial where we gave people on a low fructose diet with or without some fruit supplements. (24:56): And for most people, natural fruit supplements are good. Now, if you're eating bananas, if you're eating, you know, apples, bananas, plums, pears, those in particular can either raise your glucose a lot or or raise, provide a big fructose load mm-hmm. . So anyway, so I I I think we're in agreement actually. Totally. But anyway, so then how about we did have, we had a big bad discovery though. It's really important for me to bring this up for your Okay. People listened and that was that, you know, so in the beginning I said, that's all high fructose corn syrup, it's all added sugars. It's these, these are the foods that have the fructose, this is the food that activates the switch. It's gotta be that. And so I was targeting them and, and high fr you know, and then I found out too that you're like, if you knocked out the taste of an animal so that it can't taste sweet, it's still like sugar. (25:51): And so I realized that even when people were putting sugar in the foods, even if you can't taste it, it's like a mechanism to make you like it because the animals that can't taste sweet still seek sweet foods. So I thought it was all that. And then of course I started thinking and I realized that not all animals that hibernate are eating fruit. And also, you know, the penguin can really get fat very easily and there's not much fruit done in Antarctica. So, you know, I realized that there had to be other foods that could trigger the switch. And the big discovery was when we figured out that the body can make fructose from carbs. You know, so french fries for example, probably not our favorite food, right? , right. But yeah. But anyway, french fries do not contain fructose. They contain starch, they don't contain sugar, really, they contain starch. (26:48): Now when the starch is broken down, it makes glucose and glucose, I is a sugar, but it's not fructose. Right. So, but when the glucose goes up in the blood, it stimulates insulin, which helps drive fat of course. But it also is producing fructose. And so glucose can be converted to fructose. And especially when you eat a high glycemic carbs like rice, potatoes, all those foods that we love, bread, hot bread, you know, there's very few people who, you know, didn't, don't enjoy, you know, hot bread or you know, french fries or things like that. But we know that they're not good for us. And, and what we, why we know that it's not good for us is because when you give animals a lot of carbs, they also can gain weight. And we did studies where we gave glucose and the animals actually became fat just like giving fructose did. But when we studied and we figured out that what was happening was they were converting the glucose to fructose in their body mm-hmm. . And then we went and proved it, you know, by using, you know, special animals that can only metabolize fructose and stuff like that, or can't. And so what we did, so basically it turns out that we realized that it wasn't just sugar and high fructose corn syrup. They are the, they're definitely bad guys. Right. They're bad guys. (28:21): , I love how you're telling this like, it's like a murder mystery. I can't wait to hear. Okay, so go ahead. (28:26): Yeah, they, they're so then what they, they're definitely villains at the scene, right? But there are other villains too. And those villains include bread, rice, potatoes, and all these foods that I love. So it's really disappointing. But I do wanna say that it isn't that you should never eat sugar or cake or ice cream. And I think probably many of the people listening to me, maybe you're having some ice cream in front of you right now. But, the truth is, I'm telling you that it is not that you can eat this stuff or shouldn't, but that it's clearly that we're eating too much of it. Yeah. And there's something, and I, and I would say like, don't ever drink a soft drink. I mean that it's just pure sugar. It's gonna activate this switch, you know, so try really to, if you wanna get healthy, try to cut back on these things, (29:20): Right? I would say I'm in Argentina right now and there's lots of bread and there's lots of potatoes and there's really no obesity here. You rarely see an obese person on the street or even overweight. And so I've been kind of looking around and figuring out why that is. And I guess it's cuz they don't eat it all day every day with every meal. And they're also extremely active so they burn it off. And, and the same was true when I was in . You know, rice is a staple in many countries. Bread is a staple in many countries, but they don't consume the sheer volume of these sp fructose containing items that we do. Right. So go off and, and, and (30:06): There is a, there is a secret there, there's a secret weapon too for you to consider when you're wandering around there. And I, there's two secret weapons. So let me tell you, and you probably already know about the one, but the one is salt. You know, for years people were saying, ah, you know, salt's, you know, have been linked with hypertension, but if anything, a lot of us should eat a lot of salt. But it turns out that when you eat a lot of salt, salt can be really good for sure. But if you eat a lot of salt so that the salt concentration goes up into your blood, goes up in your blood and the way you'll know that is you'll feel thirsty if you start feeling thirsty from eating salt, it turns out that your salt concentration in the blood is high. And when that happens, it is like it stimulates the chemical reaction that converts glucose to fructose. So glucose, you have to have glucose around to make fructose, but if you have the chemical reaction turned on, you can make a lot more. And so it turns out that if I eat a baked potato that has no salt on it and it's just a, you know, plain potato, I'm not gonna make as much fructose as if I salt it. So salted french fries are much worse than regular potatoes just because of that. But (31:37): Now Rick, are we talking about sodium chloride or potassium chloride? Cause (31:44): Sodium chloride, (31:46): You're talking about sodium. So that's, we're not talking about sea salt. Because sea salt should not, not have that. Okay. Just wanna make sea salt clarify for everyone. (31:54): Right. Sea salt does not do it. Potassium chloride does not do it. Mm-Hmm. , it's specifically sodium chloride. And actually animals love salt licks and they do it, they actually want the sodium chloride if they've been studied where they take deer and they make these licks with different kinds of salts. Mm-Hmm. , it's only the sodium, sodium chloride that they'll like. (32:17): Okay. (32:18): And it's because we think that that raises the serum sodium, which is a trigger to make fructose. So if you're eating a lot of salt, you can make more fructose. Now there's another twist, and this twist is sort of interesting because it's a little, it will sound challenging initially, but it turns out that fats and seed oils and fats can play a role in obesity as well. And you know, there are the, the, the low carb people will say, well, I'm on a low carb diet and I'm on a, which is a high fat diet and I'm losing weight on it. And I'll explain how that works because the reason that is, is because you need the carbs to trigger the switch. So if you trigger the switch and lower the a t p, then you're going to eat more. Okay. So the carbs, the fructose is really there to make you hungry and to disrupt your ability to control your weight. (33:22): So if you don't have a lot of fructose in your system, the fructose makes you hungry and can't control your appetite. But to actually gain weight, it is calories at that point. And the thing about fat is it's like nine calories per gram. So if you go to countries where there's not a lot of fat, a lot of fat in the diet, they'll, people will, can trigger the switch. They can become diabetic, they can become hypertensive, all those things of the switch. But to get really massively overweight, it's a little bit harder to do if there's not a lot of fat around because the fat just has so many calories per gram. So the, in our country where we have all this processed food and fried this and fried that, the, it's not that the fried food will make you fat by itself, but if you have that fructose, that sugar that or, or you're making fructose that triggers you to the switch, then the high fat food will, will, will be like putting wood on the fire. (34:28): So think of fructose as the actual fire and food is the firewood, but of the firewood, the one that burns the biggest and the strongest are the ones that have a lot of fat in it. So seed oils have become really popular and fat has in general, but we're, because we're eating so much fat in our processed food as well, you know, it's the triple whammy because you've got sugar and you and i or high fructose corn syrup, you've got salt and you got fat. So the, the, the sugar tri triggers the switch, the salt helps really convert things into fructose. And then you got the fat that that really is giving you the calories to gain weight. So this is why on a low carb diet, you can eat all the, a very high fat diet and you're not gonna gain fat gain weight because you're regulating your weight. So well, you, fill up people in a low carb diet don't have to actually go on a diet re caloric restriction cuz they naturally won't eat as much because they fill up or easier mm-hmm. . And that's because they're, they haven't activated the switch. They're, so they, you know, they can eat that high fat food, but they're not going to mm-hmm. to really gain a lot of weight from. (35:47):So there's so many things I wanna ask you. And we're, we are getting some time, so I'm gonna kind of try and let's see if we can get really targeted here. So you just mentioned something that made me think of intermittent fasting, which is all the rage right now with the research on how it helps diseases like certain autoimmune diseases, weight loss, the list is long cognitive decline, et cetera, et cetera. Can you comment on the utility of intermittent fasting from the research that you've done and your perspective? (36:20): I love intermittent fasting. I think it's a fantastic way to lose weight. Mm-Hmm. , it's easy. I think it's a fantastic system. I also think low carb diets in general are very good. And if you do intermittent fasting, so long as you're not getting hypoglycemic from it, I would try to cut back as well on those bad foods that we talked about. And I would focus on drinking, staying really well hydrated. And actually that's one of my, my second quote for you is, is, you know, keep hydrated or stay hydrated because it turns out it really makes a difference. And if you keep your serum electrolytes or sodium normal, it helps keep the fructose from being produced and it's really good. And we actually did studies where we gave animals water and we could slow the development of obesity even with sugar. So I try to stay hydrated. (37:17): What I recommend is drinking a glass of water before each meal. It's so easy. Mm-Hmm. , just make it, make it a requirement and, you know, drink a glass of water as soon as you wake up in the morning. And if you're gonna have a snack, drink a glass of water before the snack, you know mm-hmm. , it will make a huge difference. I have people emailing me saying, this is unbelievable how powerful this is. You know, I've lost that weight that I couldn't lose. And so when you see it's so true. Yeah. So when you see somebody running around, you know, these young athletic types that are lean and mean and you know, they have their huge water bottle next to them. That is an association that is real and they need the water to stay hydrated, but the water is keeping them healthy. So That's right. It's just really important. (38:11): I gotta ask you Dr. Rick, about uric acid. Is there anything you wanna add about that when it comes to gaining weight? (38:18): Yes. Especially related to you, your point about hormones and postmenopausal effects. So estrogen has many, many beneficial effects, and we've studied estrogen in our research and, you know, it keeps blood vessels healthy in many respects. But one of the most powerful benefits of estrogens is that they lower uric acid. So young women have uric acid levels that tend to be lower than men. And uric acid turns out to be important in how fructose works. And so when, when you make or eat fructose it, it's broken down. Remember I talked about how it lowers the energy in the cell, it uses uric acid to lower the energy in the cell. And when it does that, that's how it triggers the switch. So uric acid is considered biologically active. It isn't just a waste product that we get rid of and we get uric acid. (39:23): When we eat fructose, we make uric acid when we drink alcohol, especially beer. And so uric acid is a bad guy. So it's another villain at the dinner table when you look around at what you want to eat, what you don't want to eat. You know, sugar can make uric acid alcohol canned. You don't want to drink a lot of alcohol, especially beer and certain shellfish in which we love like shrimp, they can make uric acid, but the uric acid can play a role in driving these diseases. And people with high uric acid are at risk for diabetes and obesity. And when you are postmenopausal and you lose your estrogen uric acid levels go up and it's associated with women getting increased risk for obesity and diabetes and all this. And, and it's even worse for women because at the same level of uric acid, women seem to be more sensitive to it. So when the uric acid goes up postmenopausally, it becomes the same levels as it does for men, but it's worse because it's doing more for, for at the same level in women than it does in men. So a very strong argument for hormones for hormones and hormonal therapy, and I believe it's a major player in why following menopause people are at risk for, you know, everything going to hell, going to, you know, into pieces. Right. (40:55): And so just as a fellow physician, is that at all controversial anymore? Because, you know, even acog, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the only indications they have for estrogen therapy are vasomotor symptoms like hot flashes, urogenital atrophy, osteoporosis, that's it. But all these diseases are increased in women who are hormonally deficient or in the hormonal poverty of menopause. And yet just what you said, how estrogen improves blood vessels and it affects weight and 75% of us at 60 are overweight or obese. Yeah. So I'm just wondering from your perspective, is that all a controversial statement? (41:37): Well, it is. It is. But you know, no one has really like the Women's health Initiative in some of these trials. What they really need to do is they need to consider uric acid as a potential mechanism to explain the effects post-menopause. Mm-Hmm. and to, when they do these studies, like with estrogens, they should include, you know, measuring what happens to the uric acid to see if this really re can predict the better a, you know, can predict the results. So in other words, if the uric acid levels don't go down, it suggests to me it would suggest that that person is less likely to show a benefit. I've been studying uric acid for 30 years, and I can tell you that biologically it's really powerful. And, we even did some studies in humans that we published in the JAMA showing that uric acid can raise blood pressure in people especially in younger people, there's links with insulin resistance and a variety of things. (42:37): It is controversial, we need to do more clinical studies, but experimentally and in the animal and in the cell culture, it is very clear that uric acid is biologically active and is doing things that we tend not to want to have done to us. So right. I would say yes, we need to do more studies, but like I've published studies showing that lowering uric acid improves insulin resistance. I've shown it improves blood pressure. There's studies showing that it improves vascular function. There's hundreds of studies that show that if you have a high uric acid associated with poorer outcomes, including cancers and all these things. So I believe that there's enough evidence there that everyone should measure their uric acid and know what it is. Now whether or not you should go on a medication to lower the uric acid, I think that, you know, that may be a little more controversial because medications can carry side effects. (43:38): But there are some things you can do to lower the uric acid. We just talked about 'em, you know, reduce your sugar and drink more water. Another one is vitamin C. Vitamin C is a vitamin. It's healthy. And if you take 500 milligrams twice a day, it's been shown in placebo controlled trials to lower uric acid. So it's a good move. It helps the energy factories. You certainly, there's enough evidence that high uric acid levels are associated with bad outcomes and there's good evidence that low uric acids are associated with good outcomes. And there's pilot studies that show that lowering uric acid improves things. So in my mind, estrogen's, lower uric acid, vitamin C lowers uric acid hydration, lowers uric acid, exercising daily can lower uric acid, reducing sugar. These are all good things. They're all associated with good outcomes. We should use diet, exercise vitamins, maybe hormones as you recommend. And I think that a lot can be gained and you don't necessarily have to go on Allopurinol or a drug like that, but if your uric acid is really high and you have gout, I would recommend it. (44:54): Well, you are a font of information about fat and sugar and uric acid and all these things. That is for sure. I'm gonna direct everyone to your book and we're gonna have Dr. Richard share all his links and we'll have 'em in the show notes too. But he has chapters on the optimal diet for blocking the fat switch. In his book. He has one for restoring your original weight and improving your health span. So he's got all the how-tos in his book. But Dr. Richard, please tell everyone where they can find your book and where they can connect with you online and find out more about the work that you're doing. (45:33): Thank you, Kyrin. So my book called Nature Wants us to be Fat . Mm-Hmm. , and you know exactly right, there's a section on, you know, the science and why and, but there's also, at least half of the book is devoted to how to block the switch and how to turn it off. And there's food that turns it off. And so I do think that you'll find it useful and how to restore your energy. So that book can be, you can get it through almost all sites. Amazon Books A million Barnes and Noble. You can find it. And my, I have a nice website. Well at least I think it's nice . Anyway, I didn't make it so it's great. (46:16): It's (46:16): Really good. Yeah. But it's called Dr. Richard johnson.com and that's a really good place to find me. I have a thing called Link Bio, which you can use Dr. Richard Johnson and it connects to all kinds of podcasts as well. But my website's the, my main site mm-hmm. and I'm findable on Instagram and Twitter. And so I think you should be able to find me. (46:41): Okay. I love this quote you have on your website from Robert Lusting, the Science Behind How Sugar is Not Food but Poison. And it reminds me of, there's a TED Talk that is entitled I believe It's Sugar is Not a Treat. And I really think this, this gets to the truth that we really need to stop idolizing Sugar . (47:07): Yes, absolutely. Yeah. Rob Lustig's, one of my heroes. And anyway, thank you so much for having me on your show, and thank you for those who've been listening. Yes.

Dr. Marik founded the FLCCC (Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance) protocol that advises how to treat Covid and vax injuries. His hospital persecuted him after he saved an ICU patent at death's door using intravenous vitamins C, thiamine, and hydrocortisone. HERE is a news story about it. His protocol is the most successful ever developed for hospitalized Covid patients. Marik was guilty of clinical success using unprofitable vitamins. He was an innocent until he was attacked by his hospital, the journal where he published, and his internal medicine specialty board. This woke him to the medical industry's malpractice and the colluding journals' lies. As I listened to his story, I was once again reminded of the hospital corporations' grasping nature and indifference to life. Because of Mercola's knowledge, his guests, and the rapport he builds, he is the best medical interviewer on the planet. Subscribe to his censored library HERE. I downloaded this audio at https://mercola.libsyn.com, where he makes his content available without copyright. His interviews are an introductory syllabus to naturopathy, and I'm working through them. Listen to this one at 1.5 speed or faster. To support Dr. Mercola, buy your vitamins at mercola.com. I just bought liposomal vitamin C capsules from him HERE. They are well-absorbed, do not hurt your stomach, and one gram is equivalent to about three grams in other forms. Support the show

*This episode is in partnership with Medik8*In this episode I welcome back Daniel Isaacs, the brilliant Chief Product Officer and Director of Research at Medik8.Daniel knows SO much about skincare and always gives the very best advice. I love the fact that he and his team at Medik8 take ingredients and really innovate and push boundaries with them, resulting in products that perform at an exceptional level.During the episode we chat all things Retinal and discuss the incredible work that has gone into their new eye cream. We also chat about skincare routines, ingredients that really work and why Dan believes that Vitamin C, SPF and Vitamin A are the perfect combination. (Oh and a good PHA can also work wonders).I learnt so much from Dan during the interview and as ever he got me really excited the science of skincare and my own routine. If you're into skincare and want to feel inspired then I know that you'll love this episode.

For anyone looking to ignite their fat-burning metabolism, boost their energy, and transform how they look and feel, they must start taking care of their liver. Your liver is your body's master detoxifier. It performs over 500 key functions in your body every single day. After decades of wear and tear, our livers slow down and become sluggish. Fortunately, there's a simple, all-natural solution that I recommend. It's called Liver Health Formula.   Liver Health Formula contains 12 powerful botanicals clinically proven to recharge and protect your liver at the cellular level. It helps restore your liver's detoxifying abilities. Try Liver Health Formula completely risk-free, and receive 5 FREE gifts when you order today. Just go to GetLiverHelp.com/Jockers to claim your risk-free supply of Liver Health Formula and all 5 bonus gifts.   If you've tried collagen for aging skin and haven't gotten the results you want... It's because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient. And without this “missing link,” collagen WILL NOT WORK. With this "missing link" you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin! So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C. Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient... But did you know Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C it's the "glue" that holds collagen together in your body. And if you're low in Vitamin C, well all of that collagen you're taking is pointless. And here's the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equal… If you're taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that). However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL' technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient! So, if your skin is looking older than you... And the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and otherwise “old-looking” skin frustrates you… Give Purality Health's Micelle Liposomal Vitamin C a try! It's backed by a 180-day money-back guarantee. And today, we have a 30% OFF coupon for you! Just visit puralityhealth.com and use the coupon DRJ to access 30% OFF your purchase today!   If you're looking for a way to boost focus, memory, and mental clarity, a powerful blend of medicinal mushrooms might be exactly what you're looking for. Certain mushrooms contain unique polysaccharides called beta-glucans. And a 2012 review on products containing beta-glucans found they can help to naturally increase energy, reduce confusion, boost mood, improve recall and memory, and increase vigor.”   My go-to mushroom blend is Paleovalley NeuroEffect. It contains a potent blend of 8 whole mushrooms, without any grains or fillers like most products, and happily touts a beta-glucan level of at least 26%. PLUS, they've included organic coffee fruit extract that gives you the brain-boosting effects of coffee – without the jitters or crash you get with caffeine.

  Sam and Emma host Jane McAlevey, Senior Policy Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley's Labor Center, to discuss her recent book Rules to Win By: Power and Participation in Union Negotiations. They begin by running through updates on the WGA strike, an impending airline strike, the fascist attacks on Zooey Zephyr, fascist attacks on healthcare in Oklahoma and Florida, Vice Media's impending bankruptcy, and the Rangers' devastating loss last night, before parsing through the Senate Judiciary hearing on the Supreme Court's ethics issues. Jane McAlevey then joins as she walks Sam and Emma through her experiences working in, and writing about the labor organizing process, from her time with the AFL-CIO in the ‘90s through her multiple texts that attempt to address the disconnect between labor mobilization and labor organizing, and understanding organizing as community outreach rather than focusing on those already aligned with your goals. Next, McAlevey dives into the challenges of the unionization process, with union-busting remaining prevalent well after a successful vote and throughout the bargaining processes, the importance of having community support and solidarity to bolster the long and draining battle, and the networks community organizing can create. She also looks to the case studies that she explores in her books, tackling the importance of building on worker knowledge and transparency in the bargaining process, and before they wrap up the interview by walking through the recent renaissance of labor consciousness in the US, the importance of youth labor activists, the future of labor action, and why capitalists want more of the gig economy. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive a little deeper into the WGA strike and the impact of the streaming era on labor compensation, Nancy Mace's stance on Ron DeSantis' Florida abortion ban, Rudy Giuliani giving away the game on legal disenfranchisement, and Fox's post-woke fantasies of the future for Elon's Twitter. Dr. Matthew from the University of Texas walks through his presidential fantasies, Emma grapples with the Rangers' playoff exit, and the MR Crew tackles the absurdity of the streaming era, plus, your calls and IMs!

Welcome back to the podcast! In today's episode, Chantel got to speak with Laurie Lewis. Certified coach, Laurie Lewis, has changed the lives of thousands through her coaching of Intermittent Fasting. Utilizing time-tested (and science-tested) principles, Laurie takes on individual clients as well as leading her group programs Live on Zoom. She helps determined, exasperated, busy people (who are tired of dieting!) from the United States to New Zealand to Ghana to Israel to Scotland.    Combining a 22-year personal study of nutrition (Health Coach Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition) with her research and practice of Intermittent Fasting, Laurie supports clients and participants with a dream come true. Yes, it is possible to eat the foods you love and live your life feeling strong, vibrant, and lean!    Stubborn hormonal fat hit hard in 2012, causing her to suddenly gain 50 pounds. For years, she tried everything and none of the old tricks worked. She hit rock-bottom and almost resigned to the “fact” that she would keep getting heavier and feeling worse and worse forever. At a particularly despondent time in 2017, a video unexpectedly popped up which would turn the course of her life. She stayed up all night learning about Intermittent Fasting, and started that very next morning.   Within days of eating in this newfound pattern of time, the fog lifted and she felt awake and “like herself.” With health, strength, and slender weight restored – 50+ pounds lost --at 58-years old she is vibrantly alive in her Intermittent Fasting lifestyle.   Enjoy!   Connect with Laurie: Website: https://fastforwardwellness.com/    Today's Episode Is Sponsored By BiOptimizers Masszymes: http://masszymes.com/waistaway   Use code waistaway10 for a special discount!   Today's Episode Is Sponsored By BiOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough: http://bioptimizers.com/waistaway   Use code waistaway for a special discount!   Today's Episode Is Sponsored By CollaGenius: www.nootopia.com/waistawaygenius  Use code waistaway10 for a special discount!

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog Recently I had a shoulder replacement that went according to plan, and I healed amazingly fast. Of course, my surgeon was excellent, and he gave me preoperative instructions that were integral to the speed of my recovery.  I began to think about the reasons people heal and why they may not heal from either surgery or an injury.  I started with the instructions given to me by my surgeon, and the reason he gave asked me to prepare my body for healing prior to the surgery.  His instructions included diet, activity, and supplements to my diet.  The first recommendation was to load my diet with protein to provide my body with the necessary building blocks to heal my muscles and connective tissue during the surgery and afterwards.  His instructions told me to eat a diet including meat, milk products with yogurt and cheese, eggs, and protein shakes. The amount of protein a day required was grams of protein equal to my weight in lbs.  For example: I weigh 125 lbs. and therefore I was instructed to eat 125 grams of protein/day.  I ate the foods that he recommended, and I took daily whey protein shakes with 25 grams of protein each, plus 20 grams of collagen (another animal protein) every day in my coffee. That satisfied the need to eat the building blocks of what I would use to heal. The next recommendation was to eat a diet with fresh fruit and vegetables at every meal, avoid sugar, and junk food, and avoid all alcohol and sugared soda and diet drinks.  This part of the instructions provided the enzymes and vitamins necessary for healing, as well as advised me to avoid toxins and junk food which can prevent healing.  Elevated blood sugar that accompanies intake of carbohydrate food and drink, promote insulin resistance and poor healing.  Alcohol is a toxin that blocks the liver from normal activity and blocks processing of nutrients.  It is absolutely contraindicated while you are pre-op and healing. Next, there were supplement recommendations given to me to provide the necessary vitamins and minerals involved in healing, that are difficult to get in a normal diet. These included the Vitamins methyl B12, multi-methyl-B vitamins, Vitamin D, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and the minerals Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium and copper. The additional supplements were herbs and other substances that help healing including Quercetin, NAC (or Glutamine), Bromelain and Probiotics.  I was told to start all of these recommendations 6 weeks before surgery, and for 6 weeks after surgery. I believe that following these recommendations is key to a great recovery after surgery or an injury.  The other factors that are key to success after surgery is to have a healthy level of testosterone, and I have taken T for 20 years and I realize that my health has been greatly improved after age 40 because of testosterone replacement.  Testosterone is an anabolic steroid and is necessary for healthy healing. Most men and women have good levels of testosterone until they get older, and ovaries and testes stop producing enough T.  When women become deficient at an average age of 45, and men at 55, our immune system decreases their production of healing white cells, our growth hormone decreases and stem cell activity decreases, all of which are deficient secondary to testosterone deficiency. This makes healing as we get older much more difficult unless we replace the key hormone of T. The success of surgery is dependent on our overall health so we can heal, the skill of our surgeon, our own health status at the time of surgery, our diseases, and our age/testosterone blood levels, our nutrient status and our diet providing the necessary building blocks to heal our tissues.  Surgery is not something you can just show up for, it is something you should plan to prepare yourself for and to follow up with excellent self-care until you are discharged from surgery, or until you are healed. Other issues that can cause a surgery to fail or to be redone: ·      Surgery did not completely fix the problem (lack of surgical skill or complications secondary to your anatomy or physiology). ·      Your medical condition or medications can decrease your ability to heal (steroid treatment or treatment for autoimmune diseases). ·      Diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune diseases, cancer or other chronic illnesses ·      Old age, female over 45, male over 55. ·      Testicular or ovarian removal ·      Poor nutrition ·      Lack of exercise ·      Smoking and drinking alcohol ·      Lung disease that decreases your O2 levels ·      Obesity, Body fat % > 20 % in men and > 26% in women, or BMI > 25 ·      Medications that decrease your ability to heal: corticosteroids, cancer meds, autoimmune disease medications ·      Lab results that indicate your poor risk of healing:  High CRP (inflammation), Anemia, Cortisol is high, Free T is low, Estrone is high in men > 30, High CO2 , high HBA1C, High fasting BS and fasting insulin > 10, Elevated liver enzymes, poor kidney functions, low white blood cells, low GH (IGF-1) < 150. Follow the instructions that my surgeon gave me and get your hormones replaced, clean up your diet and lifestyle, and get as healthy as possible before and after your surgery so you will have the shortest recovery and the most successful possible.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog If you are over 50 you have probably wished that you could have a face lift to bring you back to how you looked in your 20s or 30s. As an owner of a Medical Esthetic Spa named BioBalance Skin®, and because I am 68 myself, I have spent years looking for a facial treatment that would get the results of a surgical face lift, but without the pain, surgery and downtime. Because of the EmFace,  I have finally found what I was looking for so  I bought it!  It is called EM-Face, kin is the first medical spa to offer this treatment that makes facelifts a thing of the past. The EM Face is not only unique because the results of the EmFace are amazing, but it is also  unique because it isn't painful, it doesn't require many treatments (EMFace series is 4-6 treatments, one per week), and does not require anesthesia, there is no down time, no loss of time from work, and you are not at the mercy of a surgeon's skill to make you look like yourself at a younger age,  instead of a young stranger (think Sharon Stone). The EmFace treatment is done in our Medical Spa, and each treatment takes 30 minutes.  There is no operating room or anesthesia needed and it takes 4-6 sessions 30-minutes long , painless treatments that you don't even have to get undressed for!  After your treatment you can go right out in the world without bruising or any sign that you had a face lifting procedure. How does the EmFace work?  It uses electrical stimulation of the facial muscles to pull your facial skin up toward your temples, and it also tightens the facial skin so it literally makes your skin smooth and removes wrinkles!   Skin tone and muscle tone are improved and wrinkles disappear. …A face lift doesn't improve your skin tone and it only smooths deep wrinkles. Leaves no evidence of having a lifting procedure except that over the following 3 months you look progressively younger.   This is an advantage if you don't want your friends to know that you had anything done to make you look younger.  A face lift is obvious and it is hard to hide the fact that you had a major procedure to regain a youthful looking face. How long does it last? A Face Lift lasts about 10 years depending on the thickness and tone of your skin, as well as your age when you have the surgery.  EmFace generally requires one maintenance treatment a year to maintain the “lift” indefinitely. Cost comparison? EM-face 4 treatments costs around $2,800  and 6 treatments cost $3600 at BioBalance Skin®and that's it!. A facelift surgeon can charge t up to $100,000 for his or her services. Then  you have to add the additional costs of the operating room +  the cost of the surgical assistant + supplies and usually  you have to pay for one night in the surgery center. For a facelift, plan on paying over $150,000 total (assuming you have no complications) vs a total charge of $2,800-$3,600 for an EMSCULPT facelift.  Oh, I forgot to add the value of your time off from your job which can be 3 months after a facelift, before you want be seen  in public. Why does a face lift prevent you from showing your face right away? Facelift Surgery on the face involves dissecting the skin away from the muscle and bones of the face, pulling the skin up toward your temples, trimming off extra skin and then closing the incisions with suture. This massive dissection causes a large amount of swelling and bruising, requiring drains placed in your face, for weeks.  This damage lasts a long time and is PAINFUL! It generally causes patients to remain  housebound until they completely recover, which can be months. EMFace causes none of these side effects and complications,  so you can go out in public, or back to work right afterwards with a “glow”, and no sign that you had anything more than a facial. What are the comparable risks? The risks of a facial surgery of any kind are dramatic…damage to the facial nerve may not be recoverable, making you unable to smile or show expression on one side of your face.  Surgery risks are always numerous and most surgeries include the complications of anesthesia, even death, infection, bruising, non-healing, nerve damage scar formation and facial drooping. What should I do to prepare for either of these treatments for good results? Replace your testosterone (improves healing), and estradiol (improves texture and tone of your facial skin. Topical Skin Care, medical grade, (eg. Skinceuticals products) that stimulates the stem cells of your skin to grow and smooth the texture preparing for healing and tightening. Replace your estrogen and testosterone if you are over 45, 4- 6 months before the “lift”. Eat a high protein diet (more than half your weight in grams of protein/day) Stay hydrated with water and sometimes electrolytes. Lose as much weight as possible before the procedure. Get monthly hydra-facials and or micro-needling to prep your skin Take daily collagen supplementation in your coffee or tea Take healing vitamins: Vitamin D 5,000 u/day, Vitamin Methyl B12 and Methyl-folate, Vitamin A 10,000-25-000 u/day, Vitamin C 1000 mg/day at the very least. To help you make a decision, I have to tell you a little secret about what a facelift doesn't do.: a facelift doesn't take the place of getting  filler every 6-12 months; A facelift doesn't take the place of botox of other neurotoxin. After a face lift you will still need regular skin peels and hydrafacials, exfoliation, and rejuvenation of the face and neck with laser or micro-needling! A facelift JUST LIFTS! EmFace lifts sagging facial skin, smooths the skin on the face and forehead, and improves texture and tone of the facial skin while removing wrinkles and stimulating underlying facial muscles to become the same size and shape as when they were younger! You may notice that you don't need a neurotoxin as often as you did before the EmFace.  You may not need as much superficial filler to erase superficial wrinkles or dimpling.  EmFace also lifts the corners of your mouth so the downturn of the corners of your mouth are not as obvious, in fact the corners of your mouth actually turn up  like they did when you were younger. This is what you've been waiting for! I know it was what I was waiting for…the EmFace machine wasn't inexpensive, so the treatments using EmFace are not cheap….but they are drastically more affordable and less dangerous than a facelift!  I have finished my series and am happy that I no longer  dread the time and risk of having a facelift in the future.

On this episode of This Thing Called Life Podcast, host Andi Johnson is going to talk to Shelly Sherman and Stephanie Jackson. They are discussing kidney health and an exciting new project that is being launched to shed light on kidney disease as well as prevention. No doctor or medical expert will kill you for your organs; In fact, no medical professional is aware of your donor status until your death is declared. Tune in for more information! Episode Highlights:    Host Andi Johnson has a few big asks. Will you join us and be a part of this interconnected life sustaining community by registering to be an organ, eye, and tissue donor? Will you make the commitment to become more educated about living donation and championing the donation cause? Shelly is associated with the Cincinnati, Ohito chapter of The Links, Incorporated and she served as the Health and Human Services Facet Committee chair. The Ohio central chapter was granted an award by Baxter International for increasing the awareness of kidney health in the communities in which Shelly lives and primarily in the African American community. What is GFR? Shelly has been working hard in the community to make sure people know where they are regarding their GFR, which lets them know how well their kidneys are functioning and what they can do to maintain kidney health. The Links organization was founded in 1946 on the premise of friendship, and Shelly wants to uplift and elevate people by providing health information. Stephanie and Shelly first met through collaboration with The Center For Closing the Health Gap.  Shelly had goals in mind based on the grant they received regarding the number of people that they needed to touch and the number of community partnerships that they needed to do. Shelly and Stephaine share the experiences they have had with training sessions and connecting in the community. They hope people will continue to listen to the podcast and continue doing some things and spreading the word in their communities. When people are ill, you can see it on their skin and eyes. You can notice the effects of kidney and liver illness on the skin and other body systems. Garlic is great for decreasing inflammation; It has Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, and Manganese, a great alternative for your seasoning. If you want to decrease your psyllium, you can add more garlic, which is great for your heart and your kidney. The one thing is to avoid canned and packaged chicken breast because those can contain sodium and other preservatives. Raising awareness and making small changes goes such a long way in promoting healthier lifestyles. There is a great ripple effect too when you share information like this with those in your family and circles.  3 Key Points: Blueberries are an important food for kidney patients. They serve as antioxidants and are very good for healing. In addition, they help your body to increase urination. People talk about dialysis and transplant, and these are things that you want to avoid. By opting for a healthier lifestyle and changes in the food you eat, you can do that.  There are so many ways you can just move your body, and Stephanie always tells people 15 to 20 minutes is sufficient. Make sure that your body is doing something that it doesn't do every day. Tweetable Quotes: “Whatever we are putting in our body, the body is going to use, and if we don't put in things that our body can use, then our body is not going to be able to function the way it's supposed to.” – Stephaine “Your body does need fat but only healthy fats because it helps everything stay lubricated and work well in all facets.” – Stephaine “So much of what happens to us is preventable, and a lot of it is due to a lack of information that is sometimes missed in our community.” – Shelly “Sometimes, we do have a mistrust of the medical systems, and we don't get some of the information that we need to have, but we can share it and start to educate each other.” - Shelly   Resources Mentioned: LifeCenter | Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube|  Twitter Andi Johnson  website |LinkedIn  Organ Donation Website https://www.cincinnatilinks.org/black-kare-initiative https://www.facebook.com/CincinnatiLinks https://www.instagram.com/cincinnatilinks/ https://www.yoursweetestlife.com/ https://www.facebook.com/yoursweetestlifewithstephaniej https://www.instagram.com/yoursweetestlifewithstephaniej/

Parkinson's Disease is the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world. While there is no cure, there is hope for patients to help relive the symptoms of this disease. In this episode, you'll learn:—How constipation can be an early symptom indicating Parkinson's Disease. And the involuntary "pill rolling" motion that is usually the very first sign of Parkinson's.—Why Dr. Prather says getting your Glutathione level up is one of the most important things you can do for preventing Parkinson's Disease and even helping to reverse its damage. And how IV Therapy is the best way to get Glutathione into the body.—Why Dr. Prather "highly, highly" recommends patients seek "very effective" pharmaceutical treatments for Parkinson's Disease in addition to Structure-Function Care that "every Parkinson's patient should have" to help alleviate the symptoms.—How Dr. Prather helps his patients to reduce the side effects of Parkinson's medications, while keeping patients on those important medicines. —The reason Dr. Prather says "Hair Analysis" is "one of the most critical" diagnostics for Parkinson's patients. And how he has found about 10% of his Parkinson's patients have a "false Parkinson's" diagnosis that actually comes from Manganese toxicity.—The "absolutely critical" dietary changes for Parkinson's, including high Fiber and low Protein, which will "almost always" cut a patient's required medication "at least in half".—The "dramatic improvement" Dr. Prather sees when nutritional deficiencies associated with Parkinson's are addressed, including: Folic Acid, Niacin, Thiamine B1, B6, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Vitamin E. And why Dr. Prather recommends Green Tea, Ginkgo Biloba, Velvet Beans, and Fava Beans.—Why the Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic Technique is "the biggest thing for Parkinson's" that results in an immediate change in the neurology and symptoms. Plus, the exercises and neck brace that correct the Forward Head Posture, which then causes "most of the Parkinson's symptoms to go away". —How Dr. Prather uses a particular Acupuncture protocol for Parkinson's patients, including a point on the tip of the nose that he never uses otherwise.—The Auriculotherapy protocol for Parkinson's that works on the brain by stimulating points on the ear.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

Diane Nukuri was only 15 when she left her village in Burundi to compete in the Sydney Olympics. Her experience there solidified an idea that she had been considering since she began traveling for races. After winning the bronze medal in the 10,000m at the Francophone Games in Canada the following year, she remained in the country and was granted asylum from her war-torn country. Since then she's gone on to two more Olympics, top 8 finishes in three major marathons, and has set the Burundian National Records for distances from 1,500m to the marathon. Key to her success, not only in racing but in life, is her willingness to embrace change and to try new things. For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode346.

The post-race depression that Nikki Hiltz experienced after making the finals of the World Athletics Championships made them realize that to remain motivated in the sport, racing had to be about more than personal victories. They founded the Pride 5K, a race where people can celebrate pride and support queer youth, and that raises funds for The Trevor Project.  Nikki wants everyone to feel welcome and have the opportunity to find joy through running, as they have.  “Running is my job, but it's also my safe space, and where I can do the most self reflection or inner work is a solo run. It allows me to feel very at peace and also very seen, and I think that that's really important. I think running is a place for everyone and I would love to see more people bring that energy and inclusion to the sport.” For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode345.   Thank you to Örlö, Tracksmith, and Athletic Greens for sponsoring this episode.    Örlö is the world's most sustainable algae supplement.

After majoring in environmental health at Connecticut College and earning his medical doctorate from the University of Virginia School of Medicine, Dr. Stillman completed his training in internal medicine at Maine Medical Center. Board-certified in internal medicine and specializing in integrative medicine, he has a passion for doing whatever it takes to discover the root cause of his patient's medical problems through advanced laboratory testing and then addressing those imbalances with dietary or lifestyle interventions.
