A famous Harvard study finds our minds negatively wander about 50 percent of the time​, after ​analyzing the mind​ ​worry-based​ ​wandering affects on happiness​s​ of 2,250 adults​ the stress that results from this type of mind wandering can lead to digestive disorders, short-term memory loss, premature coronary heart disease, heart attacks and despair.

80% of Americans reported experiencing at least one symptom of stress ​such as headaches ​feeling nervous, overwhelmed, sad or anxious (http://ct.counseling.org/2017/03/survey-says-america-stressed/).

​Millennials (18-33) are the most stressed age group with Gen Xers (34-47) following closely behind (http://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/stress/2012/generations.aspx). ​ The number of Americans who report taking antidepressants has risen by 65% between 1999 and 2014 (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/antidepressant-use-soars-65-percent-in-15-years/).

​ Anxiety disorders are the most common mental disorder in the U.S. affecting 18.1% of the population every year (https://adaa.org/about-adaa/press-room/facts-statistics).

Doctors are now prescribing antidepressants for non-depression diagnosis, such as anxiety, sleep and increased mental focus. ​ Antidepressants ​ carry the FDA's most stringent "black box" warning for life-threatening adverse effects.​ ​ ​Risks associated with antidepressants outweigh the benefits,​ ​there may be more effective ways to tackle stress, mood, focus and sleep​. I ask David, "are there supportive studies to back up your supplement claims?

How does he mitigate lawsuits? and more…

All too often we take advantage of our health. From lack of self respect by allowing ourselves to gain much excess fat to preventable diseases such as Type 2 diabetes, to the belief we're an Avenger and invincible when it comes to our skin and the sun.    That's until we're unhappy with how we look, or the need for skin cancer to be removed or dealt with in a more invasive manner.   Dr David Hensley is a dermatologist shared information about how to protect, detect and correct sun damage and the proper use of fillers for reducing aging look we may not be happy with.    Other topics discussed:

• Sun damage: wrinkles, freckling, age spots, thinning/atrophy, bruising/susceptibility to injury/poor healing
• Protection: good and bad sunscreen ingredients
• Correction of sun damage:-mild/early: topical retinoids, "chemical" peels, laser-moderate/severe- laser/peels
• There is a grey market for injectables esp. Botox. These products are expensive which puts pressure on markets to find cheaper avenues. If there a concern, ask to see the Botox bottle. Most common grey market Botox will not be in English!

  If you receive botox, laser treatments or any other treatment offered in a derm's office, Dr. Hensley educates us about proper dilution of product, injecting properly to prevent injury and failed outcomes. He speaks more in-depth  to help you make an educated decision about where to spend your hard earned dollars while preventing medical mishaps.   www.metroderm.com   2 locations in  Arlington 300 W Arbrook near the Highlands and    707 N Fielder In north Arlington    (817) 704-4777

In 2017 there were nearly 2,000 conflicting news stories on omega-3 & vitamin D. 2000!!    I now know why people want to give up believing sups work. Who benefits from sensational stories?    1.     An estimated 1 billion people worldwide are vitamin D deficient (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4143492/).   2.     41.6% of adults in the US are vitamin D deficient (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21310306).   3.     Only 1 in 10 Americans – whether children or adults – are getting sufficient vitamin D.   4.     Vitamin D interacts with over 30 different tissues in the body and affects 1,000-3,000 of your 30,000 genes.   5.     When selecting your vitamin D supplement, choose the D3 form – it's 87% more effective than the D2 version.   6.     Omega-3 deficiency causes up to 96,000 preventable U.S. deaths per year, making it the 6th leading cause of death according to Harvard researchers.   7.     The ideal ratio between omega-6 and omega-3 is 1:1, but unfortunately, omega-6 fats predominate the American diet by a 20:1 ratio.   8.     People who supplemented with the omega-3 supplements EPA and DHA daily for 3.5 years had a 25% lower risk of heart attack and a 45% lower risk of sudden death.   Did you know we can test our own omega-3 & Vit D levels from home?    Order an omega-3 and vitamin D test kit at: www.nutrientpower.org   Karen Howard, executive director of Organic & Natural Health Association, says there are so many variables with clinical trials on nutrients that it's important to do field studies to collect as much data as possible.  She says by measuring omega-3, DHA and EPA levels along with vitamin D serum levels, her national nonprofit organization, along with research partner GrassrootsHealth, will help to pinpoint exactly what's working and what combinations of these nutrients are needed for improved outcomes for a variety of health conditions, which could shed more light on what levels of vitamins and supplements you actually need.     Howard will tell your audience an easy way to test your omega-3 levels and vitamin D levels from home with a self-test kit, and how to participate in a nutrient study that already has 10,000 Americans signed up.  Howard can also discuss with your audience FDA regulation over vitamins and supplements; how they are regulated and what consumers should look for before making purchases.     Receive 20% off and free shipping on all of your supplement needs.    Visit www.21daybodymakeover.com, click "other supplements" tab create an account for    20% off and free shipping for professional grade sups.   We're less expensive than buying on Amazon

In this episode, Dr Webster discusses the evidence  against sugar substitutes such as Splenda usage.

  Using Splenda for 12-wk  has indicated many adverse effects

1. Reduced beneficial gut bacteria  2. Increase fecal pH (High pH attracts disease) 3. Limit bioavailability of orally drugs.  This means you won't absorb your meds, in turn minimize their effectiveness and intended benefit. 

This often leads to taking high doses of meds leading to more health issues. Preventing absorption also effects supplement use and lack of benefits.

A PubMed review of sucralose:

  Although early studies asserted that sucralose passes through the GIT (gastrointestinal Tract unchanged, subsequent analysis suggested that some of the ingested sweetener is metabolized in the GIT. The identity and safety profile of these putative sucralose metabolites are not known at this time.    Sucralose and one of its hydrolysis products were found to be mutagenic at elevated concentrations in several testing methods.   Cooking with sucralose at high temperatures was reported to generate chloropropanols, a potentially toxic class of compounds. – rat studies show kidney disease and lower spermicide count and sperm survival rate at doses often consumed and thought to be "safe" for humans.   Both human and rodent studies demonstrated that sucralose may alter glucose, insulin, and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) levels.

It's ​March and most people who adopted a new year resolution are beginning to ​fall off the wagon due to lack of results, the speed at which the results came and a mammalian brain that's ​constantly on the lookout for danger, ​drama, ​failure, and challenges.

​If you choose to disregard this show, then you're either wealthy, in perfect health and or have the perfect marriage, or you have embraced being Uncomfortably Comfortable ​

I will share 6 reasons why our brain is constantly looking for failure and danger, then give tangible ideas to begin implementing to change the way your brain thinks to minimized being faced with a challenge in which you may have drawn toward you with a negative mindset.

A high-carb diet and high blood sugar are associated with cognitive decline.   What are ketones?   What is ketosis and is it dangerous? (Compare to keto-acidosis) Can all cells, tissues, and organs in the body potentially use ketones and which benefit the most from ketones.   Dr. Satchin Panda microbiologist studies the circadian rhythms​ of the body. Every cell in the body follows this Circadian Rhythm which governs when a cell is most metabolically active, when hormones are produced and when repairs and processes are active.​​​ Our internal clock tells us when it's time to wake, when to rest and when to begin eating​ and when to wind down.    To learn more about Dr. Panda's studies:   http://mycircadianclock.org/  

A few years ago Dr. Panda​ began looking at how food affects our clocks in each organ. In our liver, there are 3000-5000 genes that turn on or off at different parts of the day. 

​One experiment his team gave food to mice during the day, (mice eat at night) to see if it would affect gene expression.   The first exposure to light and bite of food determines how our body clock works.   Dr. Panda coined the phrase TRF Time-Restricted Feeding which he defines as eating during an 8-12 hr period during light exposure only.  This produced fat loss, increased lean muscle mass, decreased inflammation, improved heart function, ketone production and aerobic endurance.   Every organ in our body has an internal clock and it tells each organ when to be at peak performance and when to rest.    W​hat many people may not know is that 10-15% of our genome is tied to our circadian rhythm and 40-50% of those genes are tied to metabolism.​   Dr. Panda went on to give an example of how street lights have to be timed just right to prevent traffic accidents. Not unlike the clock in our liver and how it distributes food and the process, it goes through. Not everything happens at once such as breaking down protein, making glucose etc.    Artificial sweeteners, sugar and other things that cause a disruption in this process lead to metabolic issues attracting disease. Diabetes, heart disease cancer etc.    We're forcing our organs to work at times they are winding down, in turn, trying to force them to work at their optimal levels which cause traffic jams, and accidents using his traffic light metaphor about attracting disease.   They also found, and cannot explain people will gain muscle mass just by using this TRF. Which completely negates the thought of having to eat every 2-3 hrs.    He did say the quality of calories does matter but if someone had to choose one first to then incorporate the other, TRF during 8-12 hours daylight would be that choice.    Their findings show most people eat over a 15 hour period

It's getting hot in here.

In the beginning of 2018 I had an idea for a show to discuss the importance of adding or removing certain supplements due to the demands, change of each season and desires we have within those seasons that focus on our health goals and concerns.   People who supplement, do so with the same routine day in & day out without regard to the effect each season has on our health.  Demands on our health change as seasons change.   Which sups do you need more or less of in each season?      Winter concerns and interests: Sugar cravings, Fat loss, Stress, fFu, Snergy, Painful Joints, 

Asthma, Contracting a cold, Dry air asthma attacks, Heart Attacks

Spring concerns and interests: Allergies- yard work, bicycle riding and all outdoor activity. Toxicity from winter food and in home chemicals not being released due to lack of open windows/freshair

  Summer concerns and interests: Sunburn, Women yeast infections, Athletes foot, Acne, Food poison, Dehydration    Autumn concerns and interests:  Energy- hypersomnia, SAD (seasonal affective disorder)     Receive 20% off and free shipping on all of your supplement needs.

A food once touted dangerous by MDs, always loved by nutritionists &-bodybuilders directly affects brain health. 

What is the one well-balanced, protein absorbed faster & more efficiently than other protein? 

Dr. Tia Rains is the Executive Director at the Egg Nutrition Center. 

www.eggnutritioncenter.org  

In this episode Dr Rains discussed the new research and importance of consuming eggs for babies and adults alike. 

First we discuss the latest research on babies and brain health, then dismiss the negative news about cholesterol and eggs once thought to harm people with high cholesterol.

January 2018 Dr. Marie Caudill and colleagues at Cornell University published yet more evidence that infants exposed to higher levels of maternal choline (930 mg/day) during the third trimester have improved information processing speed during the first year of life, an indicator of cognition and intelligence.

The choline content, in particular, is proving to be much more important for brain function than once thought. 

Eggs are the richest source of choline except for beef liver (which isn't exactly as suitable for babies and toddlers…)

Eggs are also the most bioavailable source of protein on the planet (ie. More protein per bite, less filler)

Eggs are also dense in iodine and zinc

Eggs include other important brain nutrients like polyunsaturated fatty acids, folic acid, and are one of the most bioavailable source of protein on the planet. That means that growing bodies digest and absorb the protein from eggs faster and more efficiently than other protein sources. 

 

In this episode I will share the importance of certain exercises to incorporate and others to avoid due to loss of range of motion, pain, and loss of cartilage in our joints.

I will share six daily exercises men and women over 40 must do & seven you must avoid.

T​he exercises are intended to show the importance of certain safe bio mechanical movements, not a routine with any particular purpose.

Dr. Webster will comment on the link between sugar and Alzheimer's and how ketones play a positive role.

Below is a look at some of the daily exercise must do's. For the explanation and my suggested exercises to avoid, listen to the podcast. Use Y​outube for proper instruction of these exercises: ​ 1. Planks- 2. Body squat​- 3. deadlift​- 4. Any balance exercise.
