Could we all live longer and better by preventing and reversing the effects of hidden stress? This isn’t the normal stress that we hear about—this stress comes from the water we drink, the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the consumer products and vehicles that we use. And how do the places where we live and work either help us overcome those stresses or make them worse? Today we’ll learn the problems that are triggered by these stresses are being prevented and reversed.Thousands of heart patients are getting better instead of slowly worse because their doctors are targeting something new. Usually, when someone is told that their arteries are hardened or blocked, they're prescribed drugs or surgery that minimize the symptoms. They might also be told how diet and exercise can slow it but no treatment will stop or reverse the process.
That's changing. These are the stories of doctors, patients, and scientists who together are reversing the damage caused by hidden stress. Their successes are opening doors to discovering the nature of longevity.
The challenge that they're targeting is when the immune system backfires due to hidden stresses such as toxic metals and low-grade infections. These aren't on the standard list of heart risks.
Advanced technology combined with personalized approaches are driving a wave of affordable prevention and therapy that target these risks.
In response to this, more patients are taking charge of their own health. The stories of how they're doing it are told here by a seasoned author who spent decades researching, while co-founding a medical biotech company and developing healthy products. Those combined insights allowed Douglas Mulhall to see before others how targeting hidden stress is opening new doors to healthier longevity.
Life comes with hardships. For some people being single is difficult, while for others staying married is stressful.Life comes with hardships. For some people being single is difficult, while for others staying married is stressful. Having kids is tough, yet for some people, so is not having children to share their life with. Being overworked can cause stress, but so does being unemployed.
Joining us today is Susie Moore: a life coach, and bestselling author of Let It Be Easy. She believes while we can't always control what happens to us, we can choose how we react. Our thoughts, create our emotions, which create our actions, and that in turn creates the life we live.
Susie Moore is a former Silicon Valley sales director turned life coach and advice columnist. Her work has been featured on The Today Show, Oprah Business Insider, CNN, and more. Listen to this joyful interview as Susie tells us how to slow down, and enjoy the everyday moments we often fly by rushing to finish our to-do lists.

For centuries, science has been driven by human intellect. But what will science look like with AI at its creative center?While the world begins to grapple with the promise and pitfalls of artificial intelligence, its potential impact on science and medicine is fast becoming the subject of discussion. As the use of AI techniques to analyze data become more widespread, it raises the question of how long science and medicine will even continue to be driven by human intellect.
But before we try to imagine the future of these fields, we need to take an honest look at how science and medicine are currently practiced. That's what Ben Lewin does in this book, covering everything from the "grant game" that doctors and scientists have to play (doing the research they think can get funded rather than the research they think will most benefit mankind), to the "publish or perish" mentality that permeates both teaching hospitals and universities (despite the fact that the papers are a "myth" in that they present the research process as linear even though that's not how science works), to the way politics can stall even the most promising fields of study (like stem cells, which keep facing roadblocks even after demonstrating the potential for building replacement organs).

Dr. Bradley Nelson explains why the best remedies for stress are all about kindness and simplicity.Stress puts our health at risk, damaging our body’s systems and contributing to irritability, anxiety, depression, headaches, insomnia, and a myriad of other diseases and ailments.
But, people can disarm the harmful effects of stress naturally and holistically. Dr. Bradley Nelson offers these six tips for beating the stress of daily life.
1. Control what is in you. Eat healthy, live whole foods. The shorter the time from tree to tasting, from ground to gourmet, the more positive energy you will receive.
2. Control what is around you. Stay away from chronically toxic people and situations. Stay off of negative social media.
3. Eliminate clutter, physical and spiritual. Clean lines and open spaces in your living area can provide calmness and serenity. Purge yourself of emotional clutter like trapped emotions.
4. Literally “ground” yourself. This concept is also known as “earthing.” You know that great feeling you have after a day at the beach? That is about more than a day of relaxation. Standing or walking in bare feet in grass, sand, or even on a concrete surface that is immediately above the soil can rid your body of ever-so-damaging negative energy.
5. Embrace joy. As they say, “laughter is the best medicine.” Share random hugs and smiles. Think about all you have to be grateful for and share that gratitude. Keep negative energy at bay with positive thoughts and acts.
6. Slow down and love the little things. Humans have adopted the rat race as a way of life, and it need not be that way. There is nothing and no one more important than YOU. Make sure you have sufficient alone time and use it to enjoy what makes you content. A walk in the woods, smelling fresh-cut grass, watching children play, a day of reading... The possibilities are endless.
Listen as Dr. Nelson joins Dr. Friedman to explain why the best remedies for stress are all about kindness and simplicity. He also shares information from his newly expanded and updated book, The Emotion Code.

Did you know when a broken bone heals, it comes back stronger? More calcium is laid down in the matrix than before.Did you know when a broken bone heals, it comes back stronger?

A powerfully validating, destigmatizing, and practical book, Sensitive plants a gently fluttering flag in the ground for sensitive people everywhere. This inspiring book has the power to change—once and for all—how we see sensitive people, and how they see themselves. You’re too sensitive. You’re overreacting. Grow a thicker skin. You take everything so personally.
We hear these comments all too often. There’s no denying sensitivity is surrounded by stigma. We discourage it in our children, judge it in our peers, and ultimately weaponize it in our relationships with colleagues and family members. While it’s not widely understood by the public, sensitivity is an essential human trait. In fact, nearly 1 in 3 people are highly sensitive individuals, and without them, we would not have the theory of evolution, the Declaration of Independence, or Netflix.
Jenn Granneman and Andre Sóloare the force behind the world’s largest online communities for sensitive people and introverts, Sensitive Refuge and Introvert, Dear. And they’re on a mission to break the negative stigma surrounding sensitivity in their forthcoming book, SENSITIVE (on sale 2/28), unveiling the hidden power of highly sensitive people (HSPs) in our loud, fast, and too-much world.
Weaving together actionable advice, relatable anecdotes, and the latest scientific research, SENSITIVE shows readers how leaning into their sensitivity can unlock a powerful “boost effect” to launch them ahead in life. Presenting the empowering idea that sensitivity gives you access to five distinct gifts, Granneman and Sólo offers the tools and insights you need to embrace this undervalued strength and leverage it across the most important areas of your life.
Through fascinating research and expert storytelling, SENSITIVE reveals:
- A clear picture of what it really means to be sensitive and what strengths sensitive people bring to the world
- Are you an HSP? A checklist of the most common characteristics of sensitive people
- What makes the sensitive brain different — and how it’s wired to go deep
- How the needs of sensitive people differ from those of less sensitive people
- How to transform one of the misunderstood gifts of sensitive people—empathy—into a source of world-changing strength
- The common misconceptions about sensitive children—and their secret advantage
- The powerful traits of sensitive leaders, who are often the most effective leaders of all

Thoroughly researched, empathetic, and practical, Kickass Healthy LADA shares Haskins's hard-earned expertise. Medically reviewed and vetted, this go-to guide provides critical information and insights, including: A detailed breakdown of the different diabetes diagnoses.Known to medical researchers since the 1980s, LADA is just now beginning to be known to the general public. KICKASS HEALTHY LADA: How to Thrive with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (Hachette Go; 4/4/23; $13.99; ISBN: 9780306830747) is the first and only trade book on the market dedicated to treating the 3.4 million people diagnosed with LADA in the U.S., the millions that have been misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all, the 30 million with other forms of diabetes, and even the 88 million pre-diabetic Americans. Thoroughly researched, empathetic, and practical KICKASS HEALTHY LADA shares author Jacqueline Haskins's hard-earned expertise. Medically reviewed and vetted, this go-to guide provides critical information and insights, including:
•A detailed breakdown of the different diabetes diagnoses
•What makes LADA different and how to find the best treatment team
•Insulin: what it is, what it does, and how to know if we need more of this natural hormone
•Tools for good health with LADA, including food and nutrition advice
•Introducing Carb-Craft: how to safely enjoy the foods you love
Originally misdiagnosed, Haskins visited five doctors before getting helpful guidance. Lacking a supportive and authoritative guide, Haskins spent months educating herself by scouring medical publications to weave together an understanding of LADA to take charge of her life and learn to thrive with this chronic, life-threatening, yet conquerable disease. Bringing compassion, humor, and hope to people with LADA and their loved ones from a patient's point of view, Haskins builds a solid biology-based understanding, lays out clear strategies, and addresses the social and psychological aspects of living with LADA.

If you are one of the millions of Americans with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA), you may not even know it. You may be one of the ten percent of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes who actually have LADA. Even if you do know that you have LADA, sometimes called "diabetes 1.5," you're likely to be inundated with unhelpful advice and potentially harmful treatments, leaving you feeling confused and overwhelmed. That was Jacqueline Haskins' experience. After visiting five doctors before getting helpful guidance, and realizing there wasn't a friendly "how-to" book meant for the general public about LADA—she decided to write one.Thoroughly researched, empathetic, and practical, Kickass Healthy LADA shares Haskins's hard-earned expertise. Medically reviewed and vetted, this go-to guide provides critical information and insights, including:
Readers will discover:
•A clear and simple science-based guide on good health for a wide audience.
•There are more types of diabetes than most realize. KICKASS HEALTHY LADA explains how to know if there has been a misdiagnosis, and why this matters.
•People living with diabetes can reduce risks, symptoms, and be as healthy as any other person: depending on the type of diabetes they have, how early it is caught, and how hard they work at it. Well-controlled diabetes is the leading cause of nothing.
•Many common beliefs about diabetes do not apply to LADA.
•Opportunities to change economic and racial inequalities in diabetes health.

TOXIC EXPOSURE: The True Story Behind the Monsanto Trials and the Search for Justice (Johns Hopkins University Press; February 28, 2023) is the first book to go behind the scenes of these now-infamous trials. Chadi Nabhan, a board-certified hematologist, and a medical oncologist who practiced oncology and treated lymphoma patients for years, served as an expert witness in the first three blockbuster trials against Monsanto and continues to be consulted as an expert for the lawsuits that are still ongoing.They are some of the most famous product liability lawsuits in recent memory. The public was shocked when Roundup, the world's most popular weed killer, was first linked to diagnoses of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in some users and riveted by the trials that followed. When the dust settled, federal and state juries had awarded the first three plaintiffs a combined $2.3. billion and Monsanto, the makers of Roundup, would go on to settle even more lawsuits for a reported $11 billion. All for a product that millions of people worldwide have sitting in their sheds, having been assured for decades by Monsanto and multiple government organizations, including the EPA, that the product was entirely safe. Lee Johnson, the plaintiff in the landmark first lawsuit against the company, testified that he had been told repeatedly that the product he used almost daily in his job as a school groundskeeper was "safe enough to drink."
TOXIC EXPOSURE: The True Story Behind the Monsanto Trials and the Search for Justice (Johns Hopkins University Press; February 28, 2023) is the first book to go behind the scenes of these now-infamous trials. Chadi Nabhan, a board-certified hematologist, and a medical oncologist who practiced oncology and treated lymphoma patients for years, served as an expert witness in the first three blockbuster trials against Monsanto and continues to be consulted as an expert for the lawsuits that are still ongoing. In this, his first book, he gives readers the inside story, not only on the research that supports the link between glyphosate (the active ingredient in Roundup) and cancer, but also in the decades-long campaign by Monsanto, aided by some of our most powerful institutions, to deny and obscure that link for financial gain.
Nabhan, who had previously turned down opportunities to serve as an expert witness, decided to get involved in the Monsanto lawsuits because he saw them as a David-versus-Goliath story, one that tugged at him, as an immigrant to the U.S. from Syria who recognized the feeling of being treated unfairly and dismissed. He also understood Roundup's pervasiveness on the market meant that many millions of people worldwide were using it every day, with little thought to its inherent danger. Nabhan uses his position as an expert witness to walk readers through the research he used to shape his testimony and to take people along behind the scenes of the trials, introducing them to the key players on all sides. The result is a riveting courtroom drama, where life, death, and billions of dollars hang in the balance.

Learn how to survive the dreaded temper tantrum.It’s your worst nightmare. Your child throws a tantrum in a public place. You’re stressed out and are ready to have a tantrum of your own.
How can you deal?
The most difficult -- yet most important -- thing to do is to ignore your child during the temper tantrum. See if the tantrum dies down.
If that doesn’t work, divert your child’s attention. Remove him from the environment. This may be tough because you’re pressed for time and are in a public place for a purpose. Leaving that environment shows him that you mean business.
You may have to physically move your child. There could be thrashing and resistance. Try hugging him to calm him down. Talking to him might not work until he is calm.
Don’t make false promises or threats. Uphold your rewards and consequences so your child knows your promises have integrity.
Maintain your composure. Enlist the help of your spouse or partner. Make sure you’re both on the same page with rewards and consequences.
The good news is that kids tend to outgrow the tantrum phase. If the tantrums are greatly stressful for you as a parent, speak with a professional.

You child comes home with the dreaded note: the class has lice. What do you do?Even the cleanest children get lice. Those little bugs tend to nest in certain colors and textures of hair, which is why some people get repeat visits.
Lice are bugs that crawl from one scalp to another. They can crawl from combs, brushes, and clothing onto a fresh scalp. The bugs look like sesame seeds, and their eggs stick to the hair shaft.
A louse will only live one to two days when not on a scalp. Eggs don’t hatch if they aren’t in a warm environment. Of course, you should still vacuum and clean linens. It can take up to two weeks for eggs to hatch. It’s better to be cautious.
It takes four to six weeks for itching to start because of the lice saliva. When the note comes home with your child, the lice have had plenty of time and opportunity to spread.
You can check your child for lice at home with a couple of sticks, sifting through the hair. Your pediatrician can also check the scalp, make recommendations, and provide prescriptions as needed.
Lice are treated with over-the-counter medications like Nix (permethrin) and Rid (pyrethrum). Nix is used on wet hair and can kill eggs. Be sure not to use a conditioner before application. Rid is used on dry hair but doesn’t kill eggs. Consider the life cycle of the eggs. You should repeat treatment on day nine, and perhaps once more. Follow your pediatrician’s recommendation for the right medication.
In this encore episode from March 2017, Listen as Dr. Corinn Cross joins Melanie Cole, MS, to share how to get rid of lice.

New findings show the positive impact of fathers on child development.A recent report published by the American Academy of Pediatrics proves the importance of fathers in the development of young children.
Engaged fathers are associated with better academic success, health, social skills, and confidence. Their children also have less delinquency and reduced likelihood of substance abuse.
It really matters to get dads involved with children. They don't have to serve the same functions as mothers. It's great when fathers will jump in and change diapers and rock babies to sleep, but they can be involved in other ways. Daddies tend to be more playful with babies and tend to get more belly laughs. Fathers encourage their littles to climb to the top of the monkey bars and take risks on the playgrounds.
Encouraging all fathers to get involved with children will improve those children's lives. Giving fathers paid parental leave will help with this.
If your child's father is unavailable, this role can be filled by any male or person identifying as male in the child's life. Grandfathers, uncles, adopted fathers or males who are committed to the child's well-being can assist in the positive development of children.
Listen in to this encore episode from June 2016 as Dr. Michael Yogman shares the importance of fathers (or father figures).

Lead & Cadmium have been found in a number of popular dark chocolates.Consumer Reports has called on leading dark chocolate makers today to reduce the level of dangerous heavy metals in their products after they found concerning amounts of lead and cadmium in some of their offerings. In letters accompanied by nearly 55,000 signatures, CR urged Trader Joe’s, Hershey’s, Mondelez, and Theo to make a commitment to take action by Valentine’s Day.
Consumer Reports scientists measured the amount of heavy metals in 28 dark chocolate bars and detected cadmium and lead in all of them. For 23 of the bars, eating just one ounce a day would put an adult over a level that public health authorities and CR’s experts say may be harmful for at least one of those heavy metals.
Five of the bars were above those levels for both cadmium and lead: Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Lover’s Chocolate 85% cacao; Lily’s Extremely Dark Chocolate 85% cocoa (owned by Hershey’s). Theo Organic Pure Dark Chocolate 70% cocoa; Theo Extra Dark Pure Dark Chocolate 85% cocoa. and Green & Black’s Organic Dark Chocolate 70% cacao (owned by Modelez).
Consistent, long-term exposure to even small amounts of heavy metals can lead to a variety of health problems. The danger is greatest for pregnant people and young children because the metals can cause developmental problems, affect brain development, and lead to lower IQ.
Our guest, Kevin Loria is a Senior Health Reporter for Consumer Reports.

Ping pong is a therapeutic exercise that has been shown to improve the quality of life of Parkinson’s patients.What is Parkinson’s Disease? Parkinson’s Disease is a degenerative condition of the central nervous system that results in a slowing of movement, tremors, postural abnormalities, loss of facial expression, rigidity, impaired balance, and in some cases alterations in behavior and thought. The source of impaired function results from the loss of a population of dopamine-producing cells in a region of the brain called the ‘substantia nigra’, and the loss of the orchestrated release of dopamine has a profound impact on movement.
But ping pong is a therapeutic exercise that has been shown to improve the quality of life of Parkinson’s patients. Based on the concept of neuroplasticity- the brain’s capacity to make new neurons and connections through challenging physical exercise- the PPP method benefits the brain by engaging motor and cognitive skills such as visuospatial attention, motor planning/sequencing, processing speed, and executive skills such as strategy formation and problem-solving. Most importantly, the physical and cognitive engagement is fun and provides a valuable opportunity for social interaction.

Fresh off of Dry January, sobriety and the sober curious movement have been in the mainstream for months now, encouraging people to abstain from, or at least re-evaluate their relationships with alcohol.
That idea is at the heart of our guest's mission. #BingingSober was started by Colleen Ryan-Hensley, a 10-year Navy Veteran. advocate for mental health and expert in mental toughness.
Colleen struggled with depression since she was a teenager and instead of expressing her feelings and getting help, she was taught to "rub some dirt on it and get back in the game". To cope with depression, she started drinking and going on long runs to escape the things that hurt.
When she joined the Navy, she brought this mental and physical toughness with her. Sure, it was the perfect combo for being a great sailor, but not so great for relationships, health and overall well-being. It wasn't until well after her Navy days that she started focusing more on the feelings she kept bottled up and peeling away the decades of toughness she had built up around her.
Today, Colleen shows others how to avoid making these costly decisions and live a balanced life where escape and reality can live in harmony.

As viruses become more common, exposure to them is inevitable but illness is not.In The Anti-Viral Gut: Tackling Pathogens From the Inside Out, Dr. Robynne Chutkan, founder of the Digestive Center for Wellness, faculty member at Georgetown University Hospital, and bestselling author, demonstrates how vital a healthy microbiome is in keeping us protected against viral infections and supporting a healthy immune system. Combining groundbreaking research with patient stories, Dr. Chutkan gives a fresh perspective on what we can do to empower and protect ourselves against illness.
As viruses become more common, exposure to them is inevitable but illness is not. Science has proven that the majority of your immune system is located in your gut - microbes responsible for keeping a healthy gut also directly affect your immune system. These microbes:
She also goes into detail about how the immune system reacts to viruses and how we can keep it healthy - from what to eat for a healthy immune system (artichokes, leeks, bananas, etc) to tips for sleep, mindfulness, the importance of nature - and a full anti-viral gut plan with tips and recipes. The human body plays host to a vast system of a trillion bacteria that comprise the microbiome, many in our digestive tract.
With 70% of our immune system located in our gut, keeping these organisms happy and healthy does more than just make us feel good - a healthy microbiome means a healthy body, and a healthy immune system. Western culture focuses so heavily on medicating and sterilizing that we kill off our gut bacteria, and the fewer we have, the fewer barriers we have against future viruses.

Over-the-counter hearing aids are among the most anticipated new technologies to hit store shelves in years.
With over-the-counter or OTC hearing aids being among the most anticipated new technologies to hit store shelves in years, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is advising consumers to be smart shoppers if they’re intending to purchase one of these products for themselves or for a loved one.
OTC hearing aids have been sold in the United States only since mid-October 2022. They are intended for adults with self-perceived mild to moderate hearing loss.
ASHA recommends that anyone purchasing an OTC product first get a hearing evaluation from a certified audiologist (such evaluations are generally covered by insurance, even if hearing aids are not). This is important because people typically misjudge their degree of hearing loss. A hearing evaluation also can rule out other medical conditions that could be causing hearing loss.
Joining us to share more about these developments is Lindsay S. Creed, AuD, CCC-A, an audiologist who is currently working as an Associate Director of Audiology Practices at the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).

Are you holding your breath, even just slightly?Are you holding your breath, even just slightly? Are you leaning forward, tensely anticipating the next problem to land in your email inbox? Most of us, without realizing it, hold our breath while we’re at our desks or at work.
Take a moment now to lean back in your chair and take a few deep slow breaths. Shallow breathing, while we’re responding to email, is just one of the many ways in which we’re unconsciously contributing to the stress response in our bodies.

We wake up with it, carry it with us like heavy luggage, pile on more throughout our daily routines, and wrap ourselves in it as we fall asleep. Even if we are not aware of it. We are on high battery mode, and exhausted by the end of day.
But we don’t have to live this way. We can put down the luggage. We can live on a more powerful battery mode, using the regenerative energy of joy and purpose.

Violence is rising in the healthcare setting. According to the American Hospital Association, 44% of nurses reported experiencing physical violence, and 68% reported experiencing verbal abuse nationwide during the COVID-19 pandemic as of June 2022.

We have asked our nurses and frontline staff to share the stories of their experiences with patients being violent or abusive. Their stories deserve to be heard. The policy needs to change.

Let’s face it, your child learning to drive can be very stressful for you as a parent.Let’s face it, your child learning to drive can be very stressful for you as a parent. You want them to gain independence while still keeping them safe.
The most important investment you can make in terms of the safety of your driving teen is giving them a structured experience behind the wheel.

Be clear about driving restrictions for the first few months your child has a license.
Before that learner’s permit is in your child’s hand, you can be a good role model as a driver and avoid distractions.
Consider implementing the Parent-Teen Driver Contract provided by the AAP.
Listen as Dr. Brian Johnston joins Melanie Cole, MS, in this encore episode from July 2019 to discuss safe driving for teens.

Salmonella contamination is widespread in chickens in part because of the often crowded and filthy conditions in which they are raised.A new proposal by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to reduce salmonella illnesses from poultry is an encouraging sign that the agency is stepping up its efforts to protect the public, according to Consumer Reports. CR is calling on the agency to move expeditiously to adopt new measures to prevent salmonella contamination in poultry, which sickens hundreds of thousands of Americans every year.
Salmonella contamination is widespread in chickens in part because of the often crowded and filthy conditions in which they are raised. A recent CR investigation, for example, found almost one-third of ground chicken samples tested contained salmonella. An estimated 1.35 million Americans get sick from salmonella every year and nearly a quarter of those cases come from chicken or turkey.
While the USDA currently requires producers to test poultry for salmonella, a processing facility is allowed to have the bacteria in up to 9.8 percent of all whole birds it tests, 15.4 percent of all parts, and 25 percent of ground chicken. Producers that exceed these amounts are given what amounts to a warning but are not prevented from selling the meat.

The nature of competition in health care is one that has evolved over time. When hospitals and health systems began cost-shifting in the early 1980s, the concept of an “ideal patient” who generated generous reimbursement provided the impetus for providers to vie for the same profitable consumers. Times have changed, and the competitive landscape is very different now.
According to the latest Futurescan survey, the loss of market share is something health care executives already see on the horizon. Two thirds of respondents said that it was “likely” or very likely” that by 2028, their hospital or health system will lose at least 5 percent of their market share to disruptors that are not in their market today. Another nine percent said this was already happening in their marketplace. Join Sam Glick as he discusses how health care executives can mitigate the encroachment of multiple new competitors in their marketplace by rethinking the traditional legacy model of health system services provision and reimbursement.

A diagnosis of lung cancer used to be a diagnosis of death. Not anymore.A diagnosis of lung cancer used to be a diagnosis of death. Not anymore.
Lung disease caused by a new drug for cancers—including metastatic or advanced breast cancer—can be effectively treated using approaches that focus on early detection and prompt management, according to a study published in ESMO Open in August 2022.
Using data from nine clinical trials, this study provides one of the most comprehensive analyses of interstitial lung disease diagnosis and treatment in patients who received an antibody-drug conjugate known as T-DXd, from a class of drugs designed as a targeted therapy for treating cancers.

Getting together as a family when a cherished loved one was lost during the year and won’t be there, can feel daunting.Getting together as a family when a cherished loved one was lost during the year and won’t be there, can feel daunting. Not only does the thought bring sadness, but it can also bring back memories of others who have died.
Drs. Elena Lister and Michael Schwartzman, authors of the new book "Giving Hope: Conversations with Children About Illness, Death, and Loss," advocate this is a natural part of the grieving process and should be faced in a straightforward way. People don’t like to talk about sad things and often parents feel that bringing up something painful will initiate pain in their child. However, most children are aware of the loss of a special person and are feeling the pain too.

Stories from the ER: a doctor shows how empathy, creativity, and imagination are the cornerstones of clinical care.
To be an emergency room doctor is to be a professional listener to stories. Each patient presents a story; finding the heart of that story is the doctor's most critical task.
More technology, more tests, and more data won't work if doctors get the story wrong. When caring for others can feel like venturing into unchartered territory without a map, empathy, creativity, imagination, and thinking like a writer become the cornerstones of clinical care. In Tornado of Life, ER physician Jay Baruch shares these struggles in a series of short, powerful, and affecting essays that invite the reader into stories rich with complexity and messiness.
Patients come to the ER with lives troubled by scales of misfortune that have little to do with disease or injury. ER doctors must be problem-finders before they are problem-solvers. Baruch describes, among other things, the emergency of loneliness (invoking Chekhov, another doctor-writer); his own (frightening) experience as a patient; the patient who demanded a hug; and emergency medicine during COVID-19. These stories often end without closure or solutions. The patients are discharged into the world. But if they're lucky, the doctor has listened to their stories as well as treated them.

Rare diseases are also called ‘orphan diseases,’ so named because they were long abandoned (or orphaned) by a profit-driven pharmaceutical industry.Rare diseases are also called ‘orphan diseases,’ so named because they were long abandoned (or orphaned) by a profit-driven pharmaceutical industry. So why a book about orphan drugs, which by definition treat only rare diseases? Did they really trigger a revolution important enough to care about? And if so, why is that so little known? In fact, orphan drugs have revolutionized society, for reasons ranging from the deeply personal to the broader cultural and political.
Rare diseases deserve our attention because they’re merciless, causing families often far worse human suffering than common diseases. And unlike many common diseases, few can be prevented or treated by a good diet or exercise. Perhaps most importantly, a rare genetic disease could someday strike any family—and an orphan drug become of utmost urgency to anyone with a child or grandchild, niece or nephew.
A biotechnology executive, Jim Geraghty has been a passionate participant in the orphan drug revolution since its inception. His book is in part a history, with eyewitness accounts of advances as they occurred and portraits of the pioneering scientists and physicians, tireless activists, and visionary business leaders who made the revolution happen. And it tells deeply personal stories of patients and parents willing to risk new, untried therapies. But Geraghty also uses his exceptional experience and vantage point to look forward, to the immense promise of the newest technologies like gene therapy and gene editing for the treatment of patients today and tomorrow.

About 30 million Americans have an eating disorder.About 30 million Americans have an eating disorder. But when you think about anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating, you probably picture adolescent girls or young adults. That’s because eating disorders tend to appear early in life and are more frequent in females than males. But it’s estimated that about 13 percent of women over age 50 are living with an eating disorder.
Eating disorder treatment centers like the Renfrew Center report a 42% increase over the last decade in women over age 35 seeking help. And because older women may not recognize the symptoms or are reluctant to admit it, the problem may be bigger than we realize.
So today we are joined by Nicole Christina to talk about why we're seeing this trend increase in older women. Nicole Christina has been a psychotherapist for 30 years. She specializes in eating disorders and more recently has taken an interest in the challenges and joys of aging.

Today, more young people are being diagnosed with cancer than ever before.Today, more young people are being diagnosed with cancer than ever before. There has been a 30% increase in youth cancer diagnoses over the past 50 years. Humans are exposed to more toxins today than ever before, including prescription medications and processed foods which contribute to the overall toxic load. However, we discuss some of the larger cancer accelerators on today's episode.
One of the largest cancer accelerators might surprise you, it is a device that you are most likely using to listen to this podcast…the cell phone. Cell phones and many other modern electrical devices have increased the radiation levels we are exposed to on a daily basis. The other big cancer accelerator we discuss is both the Covid infection and the Covid vaccine. A new article written after our taping is entitled Did a Famous Doctor’s COVID Shot Make His Cancer Worse? The Atlantic Magazine-September 24, 2022.
These are two things that are certainly hard to avoid in today's environment; however, we touch on some ways to limit the overall toxic impact on your body from these accelerators:
-Supplements like Chlorella and Vitamin D3
-Early detection screening, like thermography
-Clean healthy diet and intermittent fasting
-Exercise - we discuss interval training
These are potentially controversial topics for some people however, we try to share all the available medical science to allow everyone to make informed decisions.

Complex urologic infections are a heterogeneous group of underlying conditions. These patients have upper urinary tract infections (UTIs) and structural or functional abnormalities that reduce the efficacy of antimicrobial therapy. They are at greater risk for treatment failure and morbidity, such as bacteremia and sepsis, perinephric abscess, renal deterioration and emphysematous pyelonephritis.

Blessing Hospital’s labor and delivery model was reactionary. When an OB patient arrived, a nurse performed an assessment and called to report to one of the eight community OBs. Typically, the OB would not come to the hospital unless it was a catastrophic situation.

Now, nurses feel more supported and confident, the community OBs experience fewer disruptions during the day knowing there is an OB physician in house and patients are receiving a consistently high standard of care.

On today’s episode, we discuss the Monkeypox outbreak and the data on the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of the newly developed vaccine.On today’s episode, we discuss the Monkeypox outbreak and the data on the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of the newly developed vaccine. There have been no randomized trials or long- term studies conducted for the Monkeypox vaccine. Just how safe and effective is this vaccine? There are still a lot of unknowns on how to prevent and treat this virus.
However, we do know that Monkeypox is in the same family of Smallpox. Today we talk about some alternative more natural treatments you can consider to help protect yourself from the Monkeypox virus, based upon what has been successful for treating Smallpox.
Below are a few recommendations we dive into:
● Strong immune system: which can be achieved by eating a healthy diet along with high doses of Vitamin C & Vitamin D
● Nanoparticle Silver: which helps to degrade the lining of the virus cell therefore killing it (we also share our favorite Silver brand)
● Herbal treatments- used by native people over 170 years ago.
● Homeopathic remedies- used successfully for hundreds of years.
We do not know how serious this outbreak will be or whether the new vaccine is worth the risk involved, considering the shortcomings of the COVID-19 vaccines. Sometimes taking preventative action and trusting long established natural treatments is the way to go.

Ever taken an aspirin? Thank a willow tree for that. Ever taken an aspirin? Thank a willow tree for that. Ever received a shot of numbing medication at the dentist’s office prior to a procedure? That was originally discovered in a plant too—the cocoa plant from the Andes. What about a painkiller for surgery? Morphine from opium poppy really takes the edge off the post-op pain. Plants are the basis for an array of lifesaving and health-improving medicines we all now take for granted. In her memoir THE PLANT HUNTER: A Scientist’s Quest for Nature’s Next Medicines ethnobotanist Dr. Cassandra Leah Quave shows us how important studying plants is while sharing her own incredible journey.
As a person born with multiple congenital defects of her skeletal system, Quave had to get her leg amputated at a young age. While other kids in her class were at football games or school dances, Quave was volunteering her time working at the local ER. Since then her research has brought her to the flooded forests of the remote Amazon, the murky swamps of southern Florida, isolated mountaintops in Albania and Kosovo, and volcanic isles arising out of the Mediterranean. Filled with grit, tragedy, triumph, awe, and scientific discovery, THE PLANT HUNTER illuminates how the path forward for medical discovery may be found in nature’s oldest remedies.
THE PLANT HUNTER weaves together Quave’s personal experiences in and with medicine, infection, disability, and scientific discovery with a fascinating and accessible description of how plants and microbes interact, how antibiotic resistance evolves, and how Quave is working to figure out how we may be able to overcome it by taking the focus away from synthetic compounds. An inspiring story of perseverance, THE PLANT HUNTER is an example of how one scientist is helping provide clues for the next generation of advanced medicines.

On today’s episode, we continue our conversation with the Cardio Miracle team and dive deeper into the value of nitric oxide for our cells.On today’s episode, we continue our conversation with the Cardio Miracle team and dive deeper into the value of nitric oxide for our cells. We explore the specific ingredients in the NO formula and why they are seeing such amazing results. We review the Frontiers Institute article on Cardio Miracle and discuss how this supplement plays a big role in both the prevention and regression of heart disease, as well as other benefits.
John Hewlett recalls back in 2007 when he first became introduced to this formula; it consisted of Nitric Oxide, Vitamin B12, and a handful of Antioxidants. Then, 7 years later in 2014 when he founded Cardio Miracle, his new formula consisted of 53 ingredients (including astragalus root, grape seed extract, beet root powder, just to name a few). We discuss how this new formula was able to extend the Nitric Oxide release in the body 24/7 instead of just a few hours for most NO products as the longer Nitric Oxide is expressed along the capillary/arterial wall, the less inflammation there is in the body and the better the artery repair process.
We also discuss how adding Cardio Miracle to your daily vitamin regimen could help you pare down your list of daily vitamins as it acts as a super multivitamin. Dr. Bens begins to draw a connection between Cardio Miracle and how just maybe there are other illnesses outside of heart disease that this supplement could help with.

John Hewlett shares his own story and the heart issues he experienced 17 years ago along with the complications he faced from the surgery he had, and how that ultimately led him to begin looking into different, more effective, and less invasive cardiovascular surgery alternatives. During today’s interview, you will learn why you and your loved ones should add this supplement to your daily regime and how it can help you to avoid heart complications in the future.
Through his own health journey, Hewlett began researching and learning more about a 1998 Nobel Prize-winning Nitric Oxide formula and its powerful role in reversing cardiovascular issues. Hewlett was perplexed as to why more Cardiologists were not talking about this or promoting it. After giving up his successful financial career to become a full-time advocate of Nitric Oxide, Hewlett realized that there was even more that could be done to improve the awareness of this miracle cardiovascular solution. Hewlett set off on his own to not only spread the word of this alternative therapy to reduce your chances of heart complications but began working with a strong team of scientists, artificial intelligence experts, and doctors to tweak this original formula making it much more effective.
