Ready for a reality check on your wellness gadgets? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we yank back the curtain on the brave new world of AI-powered self-care—and ask whether your “smart” coach is a lifesaver or a data-hungry overlord. What you'll hear in five fast-paced minutes: From step counters to mind readers Discover how today's AI tools detect stress in your voice, predict burnout from heart-rate variability, and tailor workouts on the fly—no human trainer required. Chatbots with couch credentials Meet Woebot and Wysa, therapy bots using evidence-based techniques. One has already logged over five million private conversations—yours could be next. Your breath, decoded Lumen's handheld sensor analyzes a single exhale to reveal whether you're torching carbs or fat, then spits out meal plans driven by machine-learning models of real-world metabolisms. Wearables that learn you Whoop bands and Oura Rings don't just track sleep; they study it, adjust recovery advice in real time, and promise a fitter, sharper you—if you dare share the data. Selfies for science L'Oréal's Skin Genius AI turns your phone camera into a pocket dermatologist, flagging pores and pigmentation before you spot them in the mirror. The privacy trade-off We break down the fine print no one reads: when mood logs, late-night journals, and breathing patterns become gold mines for advertisers—and how to protect yourself. Key takeaways: AI can supercharge digital wellness, personalizing everything from mental-health check-ins to nutrition plans. But unchecked, it can blur the line between self-care and surveillance. Use the tech—just don't let it use you. This episode is brought to you by Shield Your Body—a global leader in EMF protection and digital wellness.

In der heutigen Folge #51 sprechen wir mit Carsten Bartsch über die Schlüsselthemen für die Zukunft der Arbeit: Longevity, Gesundheit und nachhaltige Unternehmensführung. Angesichts des demografischen Wandels, der steigenden Krankheitstage und der zunehmenden Fachkräfteknappheit wird es immer dringlicher, wie Unternehmen ihre Mitarbeitenden langfristig gesund und leistungsfähig halten können. Doch was genau bedeutet Longevity und warum wird es zunehmend zu einem Trend, der nicht nur die Gesundheit betrifft, sondern auch das tägliche Arbeiten und die Unternehmenskultur?Wir werfen einen Blick auf die Auswirkungen des demografischen Wandels und die Herausforderungen, die mit einem sinkenden Erwerbspersonenpotenzial von 7,2 Millionen bis 2035 verbunden sind. Zudem beleuchten wir, wie Unternehmen präventive Maßnahmen in den Bereichen Fitness, geistige Gesundheit, Ernährung und Technologie umsetzen können, um ihre Mitarbeitenden gesund und produktiv zu halten – insbesondere in körperlich fordernden Berufen wie dem Handwerk.Darüber hinaus sprechen wir über die Rolle der Führungskultur im Handwerk und in Familienunternehmen. Wie verändert sich die Führung in einer alternden Belegschaft? Wie können Unternehmen gezielt in eine Gesundheitskultur und "soziale Langlebigkeit" investieren? Und was bedeutet das für die Fachkräftesicherung und nachhaltige Unternehmensführung?Mit praxisnahen Beispielen und Blicken in die Zukunft erfahren wir, wie Unternehmen Longevity erfolgreich in ihre Kultur integrieren können und welchen Einfluss wissenschaftliche Entwicklungen wie Epigenetik, Bluttests, KI und Wearables auf die Arbeitswelt der Zukunft haben könnten. Sind wir auf dem Weg, 100 gesunde Jahre zu erleben? All das und mehr in dieser spannenden Episode!__________Links
"It was pretty apparent to me that something was going on with him," says Kristi Levine, describing the realization that, based on her experience as a Montessori teacher, her infant son, Trey, was missing developmental milestones. Unfortunately, Kristi's hunch turned out to be correct and Trey was later diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation called CACNA1A which is impacting his motor skills, balance, coordination and speech. Kristi and her husband, Eric, join host Michael Carrese on this installment in our Year of the Zebraseries to help us understand the disorder and its implications for Trey and their family, which includes Trey's older sister Stella. “There's a lot of guilt involved in being a parent of a child who has a disability because you never feel like you're doing enough,” shares Eric, even though they both work full time and have becoming experts at juggling work, caregiving, advocating, and volunteering with the CACNA1A Foundation. In this candid interview, Eric and Kristi discuss the challenges of parenting a child with complex medical needs, the importance of community support, the ongoing search for treatment options, and share some advice for clinicians caring for patients and families living with rare disorders. “We just want medical professionals to respect and understand what we're dealing with on a day-to-day basis and to see our kids holistically, and not just try to fix the problem medically. Understand that for us, the biggest thing that we want for our kids is just their quality of life.”Mentioned in this episode:CACNA1A Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Jesse Cook is a PhD candidate in the Dr. David Plante Sleep Research Laboratory and studies biological, psychological and sociological factors that connect with unexplained excessive sleepiness. He was first drawn to Alzheimer's disease (AD) research through the connection between sleep health and AD, and the prevention, detection and potential treatment implications of this connection. Cook believes sleep health disparities across underrepresented groups may help explain disproportionate risk of AD. He is currently completing his dissertation, and intends to pursue a career in behavioral sleep medicine as a clinical psychologist. _____________________________ This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc.

We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In today's episode, we're diving into one of the most transformative frontiers in health and human performance, Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI). With the BCI market projected to grow exponentially in the future, this technology holds immense potential to revolutionize everything from assistive healthcare solutions to cognitive enhancement and mental wellness to many more applications. While the promise of BCI technology is promising, there are critical challenges that will need to be addressed in order to accelerate its adoption. Challenges such as technical challenges, ethical and privacy concerns, social and psychological barriers, regulatory challenges, economic and market barriers, among others. One way to solve for these challenges is by embedding non-invasive forms of this technology into everyday devices. Imagine a future where human-computer interaction allows us to use the power of our brain to get more out of our everyday devices. The future is now.Here to talk about all of this and more is Ramses Alcaide, CEO of Neurable, whose mantra is “The Mind. Unlocked. Work Smarter. Live Better.” Through its proprietary brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, Neurable is pioneering the future of human-computer interaction by allowing people to use the power of their brain to get more out of their everyday devices.Listen in with us as we reveal a tech-driven approach to make brain optimization effortless, insightful, accessible, and seamless.Other insights range from how AI-driven technologies are enhancing precision health and longevity by meeting people where they are as they journey in the physical world, to how BCI devices designed for practical use cases are accelerating conversations around neuro-ethics, to how neuro-technologies are intertwined into a broader societal movement of biohacking as a path toward health, wellness, and longevity.For more details visit TechLink Health on the web or connect with Ramses on LinkedIn.This episode was hosted by Dr. Sarah Samaan.The episode points to several references with links below:
In this insightful episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra is joined by Dr Leslie Saxon, a professor of medicine at Keck School of Medicine USC and executive director for the USC Center for Body Computing. Together, they explore the potential network data have in transforming healthcare delivery and patient survival. Beginning with the origin and aim of the USC Center for Body Computing, the episode dives into the benefits of a network of connected implantable devices to engage patients in their own care. Dr Saxon also shares her vision of overseeing "life care” as well as "sick care" by collecting data on the mind and body, providing insights into her work with professional athletes and the military to understand how the body functions as a system. The discussion later turns to the evolution of computing devices and how we are moving past the concept of "wearables" with AI-centric devices designed specifically for continuous health monitoring.
Be alert to atypical symptoms, such as fatigue or reduced exercise tolerance, particularly in younger patients Serial Holter monitoring and attention to atrial ectopy burden can guide suspicion Wearables like the Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch are effective adjuncts for rhythm detection Early ablation may be appropriate, even in younger patients with a low CHA₂DS₂-VASc score, if they are symptomatic Collaboration between healthcare professionals and Electrophysiologists is essential to optimise patient outcomes The questions answered in this podcast are listed below.They were compiled by GPs and health professionals around Australia who attended Healthed’s face-to-face seminars. Atrial fibrillation – it's not an uncommon arrhythmia in Australia, is it? What are some of the environmental factors that have been identified as contributing to atrial fibrillation, apart from COVID? Why are we picking up more cases of atrial fibrillation? Are patients becoming more symptomatic? Obstructive sleep apnoea doesn't cause atrial fibrillation, but can it make it permanent? How can the pulmonary veins cause a cardiac arrhythmia?

Neurobiologist Jamie Zeitzer is an expert on sleep – or, more accurately, an expert on why so many can't sleep. He notes that, ironically, it's often anxiety about sleep that prevents good sleep. In short, we lose sleep over lost sleep. Wearables and other tools can help but only to a point, and medications do not induce natural sleep. Instead, he counsels consistent routines, less stimulation at bedtime, and cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce worry about insomnia. Unfortunately, you can't work harder to get better sleep – you have to learn to relax, Zeitzer tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In this episode of Longevity by Design, our host, Dr. Gil Blander talks with Dr. Renee Deehan and Paul Fabian about Inside Tracker's new Healthspan Habits Score feature. This innovative tool analyzes data from wearable devices and daily journal entries to identify the most impactful habit to improve each week for better health span and longevity.The guests explain how the algorithm processes up to 15 different variables, including sleep quality, step count, and lifestyle factors to create a personalized weekly score. Rather than overwhelming users with multiple recommendations, the report focuses on one key habit to change, applying behavioral science principles for sustainable improvement.Deehan and Fabian detail how the system evaluates six weeks of data to identify trends and provide targeted recommendations, helping users bridge the gap between blood tests with actionable weekly guidance based on scientific research linking these habits to longevity outcomes.Guest-at-a-Glance

A recently published study by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) discovers a link between physical activity and cancer risk after gathering data from wrist sensors, which could help lead to major advances in cancer research. Alaina Shreves, predoctoral fellow at NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics Metabolic Epidemiology Branch, said the findings come from accelerometer-measured physical activity, which associated low-intensity exercise with up to a 26 percent decreased risk of certain cancers. Shreves highlighted the importance of wrist sensor data in cancer prevention. She also shared her excitement about a new project involving wearable technologies to determine how walking patterns impact cancer development.
We're honored to continue our global tour of medical education today with Professor Katarzyna Taran, MD, PhD, a pioneering interdisciplinary researcher of tumor cell biology, an award winning educator noted for her focus on student engagement, and -- in a first for a Raise the Line guest -- a shooting sports certified coach and referee. As Professor Taran explains to host Michael Carrese, these seemingly disparate professional activities require the same underlying attributes: patience, the ability to overcome barriers, openness and adaptation. She believes those last qualities are especially important for today's medical students to acquire given the accelerated pace of change in healthcare. “They need to be equipped with the ability for critical thinking, to analyze and synthesize, and to search for unconventional solutions.” Professor Taran tries to impart these skills, in addition to the medical and scientific knowledge students must know, through a high level of engagement. “Teaching is relational, so try to be familiar with students' concerns. Talk to them, listen to them and you will become someone they trust.” In this wide-ranging and engaging conversation, Professor Taran also discusses her work as the head of the Laboratory of Isotopic Fractionation in Pathological Processes in Chair of Oncology, the use of neurodidactics in teaching, and the connection between the science of pathology and the future of humans in space.
